Double Zero One
Part One
Melody sat on the sill of her open window enjoying the warm summer breeze while reading a book when Heero walked in. He sat down on the corner of her bed and started reading a book that he had picked up off of her night stand. Not long after Heero had come in, Trowa and Quatre came in and sat down, Trowa sat down on the carpet at the foot of her bed propping back on the bookshelf, after pulling the book he wanted to read. Quatre sat down on her red cushion, picking up a Gundam Wing book out of a pile of them that was in her floor. Next came Wufei, he already was carrying a rather thick book in his hand, which he continued to read as he sat down in the floor near the closet. Aaron, Melody's brother, walked in followed by Duo who was being chased by Luke, Melody's hyper active dog. Aaron took a seat in the hammock chair and begins reading, Duo started the computer and began playing a game, and Luke jumped onto the bed and curled up next to Heero who didn't seem to notice or care.
About thirty minutes passed before Melody and Aaron's mom came to the door. She stopped and stared at the seen of seven people crammed into Melody's tiny room, almost all reading, except for Duo who was still engrossed into the computer games and Heero who was now petting the small white dog that was curled next to him.
"I've been called into the office; your father is outside working on the car." She took another sideways glance at the five quiet, yet odd, set of friends that Melody and Aaron had seemed to find out of nowhere. "I need you guys to stay out of the kitchen, and, call me if anything happens." she added taking an extra careful glance at Duo. She then walked down the hallway, not seeming to be entirely sure about the group.
After she had left, Duo looked up, "What are we going to do today?" he asked Melody.
"I don't know," replied Melody looking up from her book, The Twin Towers. "I've got a bad case of writers block and Aaron won't help me, so I guess you guys can have a free day." The five Gundam pilot's faces loosened in relief. "As long as you don't kill anyone, including the dog, or destroy the house." Everyone except Wufei, who didn't seem to care for dogs, seemed not to mind this.
Quatre and Trowa pulled out the chess board, Melody and Wufei continued to read, and Heero and Aaron dug out the N64 and started playing Bond. Duo continued to play on the computer.
Two hours passed quickly before Melody jumped out of the window and went to the kitchen to get a snack. When she came back Wufei had Duo penned to the ground and was threatening to cut off his braid.
"Hey! No blood on the carpet, or my moms not going be happy, and believe me that will not be fun." she said when she saw what was happening.
"Duo, your women's braid is gone this time," Wufei taunted. Duo squealed in horror as Wufei brought the Kantana closer, brandishing it before duo's eyes, clearly enjoying the moment.
"How did he get his kantana back," Melody wondered, she clearly remembered taking all of their weapons including Heero's seven guns and his pocket knife. "STOP IT WUFIE!" She yelled "MY MOM WILL KILL ME!"
Wufei seemed to feel that made his idea even more worth while.
"STOP IT NOW or I'll use the worst story I can think of!"
All activity in the room ceased as everyone looked up from what they were doing, all except for Aaron who was to busy complaining about Heero having beaten him for the 18th time.
"You wouldn't dare," Heero threatened, trying to pull his gun forgetting the authoress had taken it.
"It took you less than five seconds that time!" Aaron continued to whine, still upset over the game.
"You wouldn't dare, stupid onna, you are too weak to try," Wufei replied letting only a hint of fear creep into his eyes.
Melody's face became firm, "That decides it."
They tried to stop her, Quatre grabbed the mouse off the computer but it was no use, Duo had left Microsoft word open from playing with the wing dings type face.
As Melody touched the keys the screen got brighter till the room was filled with a bright white light.
"Nooooo!" Quatre screamed.
"Stupid Onna" yelled Wufei.
Duo was laughing "Quatre, You scream like a girl," and burst into fits of laughter.
"Hmm" Heero noted.
"I agree Heero," Trowa sighed, "this is going to be a long day."
"You always beat me, I can't understand," Aaron continued to whine, "It's not right, it's like...What the hell is going on?"
: P
Melody and Aaron stood in front of a white emptiness. "The title screen, are we writing a fan fic?" asked Aaron.
"Yes" Melody said barely containing her mirth.
"Oh Boy!" Aaron said rubbing his hands together " I've got the perfect idea, It's about the Gundam and these little mice men, and some munchkins, and Zechs is trying to take this time warp, and make the munchkin world into a super planet, and the mice are trying to take over the Earth Sphere Unified Alliance." Melody looked at him blankly for a moment, wondering about his mental well being.
"I figured we'd use, The Story." as she said this thunder rumbled in the background.
Title words rushed from the background hitting Aaron in the back, knocking him flat. "Oww," he complained, "I hate it when that happens."
Jazzy spy movie music began to play.
Heero Yuy 001
To Live Another Day
Disclaimer: "Ooo," Aaron ecstatically said, "My favorite part."
Melody cleared her throat. "Okay, as you guys know, we don't own Gundam wing or any of its characters. We have no copyrights of our own or restrictions being a couple of lame teenagers who have such a boring life we have nothing better to do than type a story about someone else's cartoon show." Melody paused before continuing. "We also don't own bond or the movie "Die Another Day", however, if I did own Bond I'd take him out to dinner at a fancy club, we'd dance, he'd be wearing a white tuxedo, and I'd be in a diamond studded dress, then we would head down to the beach and take a moonlight stroll, and as we stand in the darkness he would..."
"DUCKTAPE TIME," interrupted Aaron, ripping off a piece and pressing it down over Melody's mouth, who angrily mumbled something, and begin trying to pick it off without hurting her lips. Wufei could be heard in the background, "Justice has been served."
"Okay everyone," Aaron begin, "We hope you enjoy this little fan fic, and since it's appearing to be a long one, we've stuck an intermission into it for your benefit, which you can use this time as you see fit. Enjoy the show."
Rain was pouring down in the jungle. Dripping down through the thick trees, and splashing down onto the broad leaf plants, where it rolled down and soaked into the muddy earth. A whirring sound began to echo through the forest, increasing in volume until it became a deafening roar, until the object producing the noise came into view; a helicopter flying only ten feet over the green tops of the trees.
Chang Wufei observed this scene through his cool dark eyes. Standing in the back of a military hovercraft, surrounded by some uniformed soldiers, carrying heavy automatic weaponry. Quatre stood next to the hovercraft, examine the camouflaged uniform he wore.
"Injustice," Wufei said coldly, staring at the white chopper hovering into the muddy military base in which he stood. "Injustice," he repeated, "putting me in as the antagonist of the story, how far will you sink?" Trowa stood some distance off, waiting near the wide spot that served as a heliport. "It could be worse," he commented as the rain dripped off the front of his hair like a wide brim hat. "They could have had you killed in the beginning of the story." But Wufei could not hear Trowa speaking, he was to intent on the helicopter that was now coming in for a landing, and Trowa wasn't talking much louder than a mumble.
The helicopter began to descend, sending mud and rain flying out at an angle as it touched down. Trowa's hair was the only thing not moved by the powerful winds produced by the blades. Before they had even stopped turning the door opened and Heero dressed in a tuxedo and looking uncomfortable, came striding out.
He was carrying a large silver suitcase and a scow on his face. His cool eyes searched the complex till he found Wufei standing in the back of the hovercraft trying to wipe mud off his white pants. Trowa walked over to Heero, making some comment about the weather that no one could hear. Heero handed him the briefcase he was carrying and walked over to Wufei.
"Injustice, my good white pants," Wufei looked up meeting the death glare that Heero was giving.
"I am sure you will find the diamonds you are looking for in the briefcase." Heero said coolly. He was clearly uncomfortable. Quatre came over and taped Wufei on the shoulder. Wufei looked over.
"What is it weakling." he said. Quatre looked quite disturbed. "I've been examining the diamonds, I think there conflict diamonds, and do you know they are illegal to sell to anyone?" Wufei smiled a little.
"Yes, Quatre," he said mockingly "I believe that is the point."
"Oh" Quatre said, "I understand."
Wufei stood for a moment watching Quatre examine the diamonds.
"So" he said to Heero. "I trust you want to see the weapons that we are exchanging. Would you like a demonstration?" He paused and looked at Heero who was starting to look a little pale and was now definitely uncomfortable. "Are you alright?" he asked frustrated at Heero.
Heero wasn't sure how to respond, this was clearly a small talk initiation sentence; he wasn't prepared to engage in small talk, and was starting to sweat from the tuxedo. He fumbled for the words to respond to the comment, but had no experience in this area. Frustrated, he pulled his gun and began firing.
Bullets were flying everywhere, as Wufei's men tried to respond to the brazen attack. Bullets whizzed passed Wufei who was standing slightly stunned. Trowa pulled out a side arm and with two well placed shots into Heero's helicopter caused it to explode into a massive ball of flames that only Hollywood action movies can produce. Then he and Quatre hopped into the back of a hovercraft and took off with the diamonds. Heero was now behind a hovercraft firing with precision that only the perfect soldier had. One of Wufei's men jumped behind the controls of the hovercraft Wufei was standing in; he pushed the accelerator down all the way but was hit in the neck by stray bullet and flopped back into his seat. Wufei fell into the back of the hovercraft as it took off into the forest, smashing thought the underbrush until it slammed into a tree, rolled on to its side, and crashed into a flaming mass of blackened metal. Suddenly army jeeps rolled in to view behind Heero's hiding place. Heero turned in time to see an army of men jumping out and aiming automatic weaponry at him.
"Hey, you can't kill my main characters," Melody cried, "If their dead we can't take them back, think of the children Aaron, without Gundam wing, what will they do?" she burst into tears.
Aaron responded defensively. "What! I'm only following the plot. Besides I'm sure Wufei will be fine."
Melody looked up wiping the tears from her eyes, "Really, are you sure?"
"Yeah, he'll be fine, now, if you don't mind, let's be getting back to the story."
"Okay." Melody whimpers in a chibi voice.
Duo was sitting at his desk when he got the news. "No way your kidding, Yuy been captured, how weird is that, whoever took him must be good, or else he's loosing his edge, I don't know, that's crazy." The attendant who had brought him the news stared at him blankly.
"Did you hear what we're planning to do, I mean we need your go ahead."
"Oh right, go ahead and do it," Duo responded perkily.
Heero had been tortured for nearly a year when the guards came and roughly picked him up. They took him out of the cold damp jail cell in which had been Heero's entire life for the last year. They dragged him through the stone hallway, and pulled him through a set of doors. Bright sunlight blinded him and his lungs were flooded with fresh humid air. He was thrown into the back of a green army jeep where two men with guns pointed at him sat. He lay against the cold metal of the floor, staring up at the sky as the truck leached off to a start and began bouncing down the road. Minutes later the truck came to a stop and he was tossed out onto the ground by the two guards. He then was ordered to begin walking as the weapons were pointed at his back. He stumbled weakly from lack of food, feeling rough wooden planks under his feet and hearing water rushing beneath him, he stumbled blindly along until a figure appeared in front of him. He stopped and saw the outline of a boy who seemed to be wearing a cap sideways. As he came closer he managed to force his eyes to focus on the figure and managed to recognize him as Trowa.
"Well, It looks like you get to be traded for me" Heero said hoarsely," but wait, didn't you escape the area with Quatre."
As Trowa blushed a little. "Apparently Quatre forgot he hadn't driven a vehicle in a couple years since he's rich and has chuffer. He crashed and I wound up walking into enemy territory."
"WHAT HAPPENED TO QUATRE" Melody demanded angrily, "YOU BETTER NOT HAVE KILLED QUATRE?"
"Good Grief, why do you keep interrupting the story like this, it's getting so annoying. I knew I should have left the duck tape on." Aaron responded. "Quatre is okay. He'll reappear soon enough."
Heero woke up in a hospital bed. He looked around himself. He was in a small white room filled with medical equipment. An IV was dripping a clear fluid into his arm and a monitor on his right blipped every second and showed his heart beating. It looked for the most part like a hospital room and Heero would have thought it was if he didn't see the complex security system that locked him in there. Duo came through the door system and walked over to the side of his bed.
"Hey, it's good to see ya Yuy, did ya sleep well." Duo said perkily.
Heero groaned. "Duo, Omae o korosu."
"Yep, its you all right, but the rest of the guys don't think so, so, you know, I'm ganna have to detain you until we can find out if your like loaded up on drugs or something. So your ganna have to stay here for while, that okay." Heero just looked straight ahead.
"Duo, tell me, how did you become the leader of an international spy group."
"Oh heck," Duo grinned, "the authors just casted me here. See ya buddy."
Duo walked through the complex door system. Another man dressed in a lab coat rushed up to him stopping him in the hallway to speak with him. After Duo had spoken to him he turned to see if Heero was still okay before leaving. He strained his eyes looking through the glass door, but he could not find Heero, he was clearly gone.
"Man, that's creepy," Duo shuttered.
It was a balmy day in Havana, Cuba. The sun was just starting to peak over the horizon, outlining the buildings with golden sunlight as people began coming out onto the street
ACK NO! HOW COULD I MAKE SUCH A MASTAKE?
Aaron turned to Melody "We have a problem that I didn't for see."
"What is it?" Melody asked concerned.
"Well, I forgot that in the bond movie, James had a co-spy from America who he holds a relationship with through the movie."
"So what do you want me to do about it, put an extra in there and go on?"
"Well, I would, but extras have a tendency to speak in broken sentences, it's really annoying."
"Hmm, why don't you use the 2D 3D Interspatial Distortion Warp Tunnel Transfer System, (or affectionately known as BENKI) to get the rest of the characters you need. Just remember, you have to keep it at all times, or else you could get lost in television"
"Ohh, that's a good idea, but I thought the activation button on the 2D 3D Interspatial Distortion Warp Tunnel, Excuse me, The BENKI, needed to be cleaned where you spilled Coke in it last time."
"I DID NOT, It was Sierra Mist."
Well, whatever Mel, I need to continue typing this story as it is, so why don't you go back and get the characters you think we need and I'll continue typing."
Melody opened the wooden computer desk drawer and began rummaging around in the papers, books, CDs, and computer disk until she came up with what looked like a shiny silver remote control. Colored wires were glued to it in varying angles, and a long radio antenna was projected out of the front, glued in by glitter glue. It was slightly sticky, especially the "on" button.
"Do you think Dad has noticed we took the TV remote?" Melody questioned.
"Naa, he thinks someone stole it," Aaron said continuing to type.
Melody extended the antenna bumping it against the wall by accident as she tried pushing the sticky numbers for the place she wanted to go then pressed the large red button at the bottom. The control made a buzzing sound, but nothing happened. She tried it again pushing a little bit harder. This time the key stuck but still nothing happened. She smacked it against her nightstand, forgetting the extended antenna which whipped down a cracked Aaron across the ear. The device activating at the same time opening a gap in the space in her room swallowing itself and Aaron, who was typing, into it.
"Oh shi--," Melody noted, "that could be a problem." She looked at the computer screen trying to figure out where he landed. (For those of you, who are stunned by the relationship between the characters and reality, just try not to think about it.) Melody stood stunned unable to move from her place. She resembles a deer in the headlights of a truck.
"Okay, I've got to think, what to do," Melody tried to work out what she needed to do next through the panic that was beginning to set in. If Aaron was separated from the BENKI than he could be lost in the airways forever!
Suddenly the space in her room begins to warp, spreading into an opening that quickly grew large enough to allow a person through it. A figure emerged from the hole. A tall, lanky fellow wearing white breeches, a pair of shiny black boots, and a red uniform jacket. Melody immediately recognized him from his long blonde hair and silver helmet.
"Zechs? What are you doing here?" Melody gasped.
"Have we had the pleasure of meeting?" he responded using his refined etiquette.
"Umm, No we haven't, I have seen you before though" Melody stuttered as she tried to organize her thoughts. "Wait, How did you get here, where's Aaron?" Zechs eyes brightened at the mention of Melody's brother.
"Ah, yes, I believe your brother wanted you to have this." He stated pulling a small note out of his jacket pocket and handed it to Mel. Zechs stood patiently as she opened it and begin reading, his confident stature towering over Melody which became more disturbing to her by the moment. Zechs realized this and took a seat in the computer chair, crossing his leg over the other in Zechs' style.
"Dear sis," Melody read, "BENKI responding erratically, can't control destination, beaming out random people, give Zechs tea, will keep him from being impatient, looking for Relena, write story, something about hotel, Heero being spied on by Chinese government before getting help from them. Beam activating, must go now."
"He's okay," Melody thought, "than I must finish the story, after I boil sum tea for Zechs." 'Oh shit I've never seen the movie' "hey Zechs have you ever seen To Die another Day?" Melody asked.
"What are you speaking of?" Zechs asked. Melody sighed impatiently.
Heero sat in the lobby of a hotel in Beijing, China, wondering what was going to happen next. He knew something was wrong due to the fact he'd been sitting there for the last ten minutes; something must have happened to Aaron.
Heero pondered the events of the past couple days in the dim ornate chandelier lit lobby. It was clear that nothing was going to happen here. He wondered if perhaps the authors intended him to act on his own. After sitting for the next half hour he finally decided he wanted to go SHOPPING at The Maces he had seen while entering the hotel. Besides, maybe something would happen there, he hated waiting for things to happen.
The department store was relatively empty of people. Mostly young couples wandered the isles looking at the colorful clothing and varying housing supplies. Heero walked over to a section of the store completely separated from the rest marked by a large white sign hanging from the ceiling written "Lingerie". He flipped through the colorful but uncomfortable looking outfits until he found a rose red baby-doll nightly. It had white fur around the top and bottom. He stepped over to a wall length mirror and held it up to himself.
"I wonder how this would......." he trailed off as he noticed a man that he recognized from the hotel in the reflection of the mirror. The man was clearly watching him but trying not to let on that he was. Heero wondered if this guy was a spy for the enemy but decided not to make a scene in the store. So he walked calmly over to the check out counter and paid for the nightly. Then following a woman with a black baby stroller, he left the store with his purchase in hand.
"Hmm, you think Heero is going to kill me for that" Melody wondered out loud to herself. Zechs stood up to take his cup back to the kitchen
Well that is it for chapter one my brother and I are writing this story. It's a work in pro, And you must under stand we started this back when you were… well when the move "To Die Another Day" came out, so the writing will change some. And true to the story I have never seen the movie as much as I love Bond. (tears) so Stay tune we'll get more up I promise with both of us in college, at two different colleges in two different state it may be some time but we plan to hit out another chapter over Christmas brake that is the plan anyway so long for now
Ja ne
Melody & Aaron Rasnake (Bark) oh and Luke (the doggy)
