They set off after that and most of the crew looked at Relena a little differently.

Taking off her fancy dress she removed all the jewels and put it in a pouch. Dressing in brown trousers and a white blouse she admired her reflection. The trousers fit like they were meant for women.

Trousers for females… it was unheard of in her circle of society.

Her butt long dirty blond hair had to go though. Taking out a pair of scissors she cut it to her shoulders. Her head felt instantly lighter, nodding at the change. She looked a little different, but not enough. Opening the door she called Hilde.

The blue haired girl was surprised at her change, "My clothes fit you well though."

Relena nodded and turned back to the mirror "But I need to change my hair… more that is. I still look like myself."

Hilde nodded and snapped her fingers "I know! Hang on."

She returned a few minutes later holding a box.

"Hair dye," she said when Relena asked.

Relena bit her lip and eyed the girls blue hair… "What color is it?"

Hilde laughed and prepared the mixture "Red. Don't worry though… it's a natural red. Now… sit."

The change wasn't as great as Hilde wanted but Relena was satisfied.

"It's very chic," Hilde said smiling.

Relena studied her reflection and smiled "I like it very much. Thank you Hilde."

The girl put an arm around her "Don't mention it your Ladyship. Come on, let's go see what the others think."

Relena nodded, she wasn't used to the friendly atmosphere here on the ship as of yet.

Dorothy whistled and her (scary) eyebrows went up "Wow. Looking good your Highness."

Relena shook her head "I'm not royalty."

Trowa smirked "You have more blue in your blood than anyone else on this ship." Relena shrugged "I'm trying to forget that for the rest of the trip."

Trowa was polishing his gun "You mean you won't stay with us?"

Relena shook her head "I'm staying with you as far as Sirendan. I'm going to live with my brother and his wife."

They were all silent, "So why the make over?"

Relena spun around and saw Heero standing at the door.

Relena bit her lip "Well I'm supposedly dead so I'm going as Milliardo's cousin, Andrea Peacecraft."

A voice came from the speakers "Intruders on Deck Five. I repeat intruders on Deck Five."

Heero cursed, "Seems like your husband doesn't believe that body we left was you." Relena scowled "He's not my husband."

The members of Hurricane rushed to the door on their way to Deck Five grabbing anything from the mass of weapons piled on the table.

Trowa grabbed Relena as she started down the hallway with her new friends, "Stay here and don't let yourself be seen if they get in here. I'll lock the door."

Relena nodded reluctantly.

Heero swore out loud when he saw Duo's battered body; the guy standing over him had an impossibly large sword in his hand "Hey!"

The guy looked up and Heero realized at once that it was the boy on the couch from the night he took Relena. The one he'd known that would be a good fight.

Heero pulled out his own sword "Leave Duo alone."

Quatre scowled and stepped closer to Heero, "Where's Relena?"

The question sounded more like a threat than anything else.

Heero got into a ready position "She's dead or didn't you see the body?"

Quatre attacked him "She's not dead… do not lie to me."

Heero's eyes hardened and soon they were sparring for their lives.

Heero slashed at Quatre with his sword, his was small, like a katana so he was much faster and managed to bring it down on the other boys arm, it cut through his jacket but nothing more. Quatre was wearing iron gauntlets it seemed. Heero cursed and barely dodged Quatre's killing blow.

Sparks flew as they exchanged blow for blow. Heero soon found out that Quatre was wearing iron on his legs and chest as well.

Quatre lunged at Heero and swung his sword down to slice Heero in half but Heero was too quick. He flipped over backwards and struck out with his sword. Quatre's sword was much larger and stronger than Heero's so it was due time when the sword broke in two.

Quatre pinned Heero against a wall, his sword clattering to the floor "Let me ask you again… where's Relena?"

Heero punched him in the face "Get away from me!"

Quatre regained his balance and spun around just in time to deflect a punch from Trowa before whirled to face Heero whom he promptly tripped.

'His fighting style is incredible!' Heero thought as he and Trowa attacked him mercilessly to no avail.

'He's very fast… almost inhuman' Trowa thought to himself.

Quatre landed a punch in Trowa's gut before slammed Heero in the temple with the handle of his gun. When Heero regained his bearings he realized Quatre was gone.

He checked on Trowa and Duo.

"He's lost a lot of blood but he'll live and get this… that blond you had a hard time fighting. Well, he was helping him."

Hilde looked up at him from her place next to the ships doctor, Dorothy, "Weird eh?"

Dorothy finished tying up the bandages "Are you saying he's not the enemy?"

Hilde shook her head "Oh no. He is the one who did this but… he didn't want him to die. I think he's just here for Relena."

Trowa rubbed his stomach "Well, he's not like anyone we've fought before. He managed to get past our security and my guess is that he would have continued to but Duo stumbled on him and so he was forced to kick his ass so he couldn't alert anyone."

Heero frowned "Then why did the alarm go off?"

Trowa pointed up, "Security cameras. There's a hidden one over there, I just installed it and it'll identify anyone on this ship, if your ID isn't in its data file than an alarm goes off. My guess is he did see it but while he was fighting the camera saw him."

Duo groaned and almost instantly all eyes were on him "Re-Relena… not sa-safe. Knows where she…is… must not let him… get her."

Heero cursed and went off in a dead run to the lounge, Trowa right at his heels.

Wufei showed up next to Heero "Where is he?"

"In the lounge. He's after Relena"

Relena's heart was pounding when she heard the doorknob jingle. She hid behind the bar and closed her eyes, a small explosion went off and she could her the crunch of wood and glass as the person came in.

"Miss Relena?" Her eyes shot open; she peeked out from behind the counter and saw a definite sight for sore eyes.

"Quatre!"
