I don't have anything to say right now so how bout we just get to the story?

I take that back I do have one thing to say. Some one kindly informed me that Quatra was actually spelled Quatre. (pouts) some one could have told me sooner. It is to late in the story to change it so I will just have to remember it for future stories.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Quatra was standing in the Hiiro and Usagi's dorm kitchen watching the scene before him smiling. Dou, Ru and Tenshi had been arguing over the bowl of popcorn when it slipped out of their hands and landed up turned onto Wufei's head. He was sitting on the couch looking at the movies Duo and Trowa had gone to get. It was the weekend and no one wanted to go anywhere. The three were behind him arguing who would hold the bowl when it happened. Now there was a fuming dragon with popcorn all over him chasing all three sending popcorn everywhere.

Quatra was surprised really he could tell Trowa was too. When Wufei had gotten up he was sure that he would pull his Katana out and chase down Duo. Instead he grabbed their sodas off the table and dumped it on them then grabbed the couch pillows and took off after them. Trowa was now leaning against the wall for support as he laughed.

It had been two almost three weeks since Ru joined them and already her appearance had caused great changes in them all. They had accepted her as another little sister. They could do no less. After all she was the reason their chibi Tenshi had snapped out of her mood. Now she was almost always smiling and cheerful. Just as she was before they came here. Wufei didn't try and kill Duo if he was with one or both Tenshi and Ru when something happened but that didn't mean the Justice Dragon didn't get to use his precious blade from time to time. Trowa was opening up again. When he had first meet the others him and Hiiro talked more then, than what they do now, but because of the wars they had begun to close up. They all had. Hiiro has started talking to himself again when he was on his computer or working on his Gundam. He teased Duo again when the braided American tried to get some response from him. (This is how Hiiro acted in the show. I just got through watching like six of tapes of the shows last night that I bought. I had forgotten so much of what had happened.)

Tenshi and Ru now called them brothers and from time to time they would tease Trowa and call him Tousan. He acted more like a father than a brother and when they would see Rashid they called him grandfather. At first to the large mans embarrassment, but now he expected to be called nothing else from the girls. The only one Tenshi didn't call brother was Hiiro. Quatra didn't know if the others realized this but there was something forming between the two and he figured even those two didn't know. He wasn't sure what to do. If the others did find out Duo would tease, Wufei and Trowa would almost for sure attack or watch Hiiro like a hawk and Allah help Hiiro if the Rashid and the other forty found out.

Quatra turned back to the chase before him and couldn't help but laugh. Some how they had gotten a hold of one of Duo's prized mangas and were playing monkey in the middle. Some how they had roped Trowa in to it. Hiiro walked into the dorm and stopped dead. Never in his life would he thought he would walk into his dorm and see all but Quatra playing monkey in the middle and enjoying it. Duo had spotted him and grinned his cheese grin that promised mischief and possible his near death.

"Hi honey, your home late." Everyone froze and looked towards Hiiro who was fuming and sending his death glare.

'Duo wants to play and he thinks I need to lighten up. Why don't I just blow his little mind.' Hiiro thought to him self. A smirk appeared on his face then disappeared.

"Sorry I didn't call babe, but I lost track of time." Everyone blinked. Did they just hear right. The perfect solider just made a joke. Ru swore she head a little pop coming form the American before he fainted dead away. That snapped everyone out of their trance. They began to laugh. How couldn't they? Hiiro just blew Duo's mind with a joke even with him talking in his normal monotone. Everyone was on the ground rolling in laughter as Hiiro stepped through them or over them shaking his head and rolling his eyes as he walked to his room and shut the door.

It had taken them the better part of an hour to calm down. Every now and them someone would start giggling sending everyone else off.

"Shouldn't we try and wake Duo up?" Quatra asked worriedly looking over to Duo who was still out cold. Wufei snorted.

" He will be fine. Yowaimono just fainted. Hiiro overloaded his weak onna brain."

Trowa nodded in agreement. "I believe the Perfect Solider did it on purpose."

A groan was heard coming from Duo. He had finally come around. He was sitting up rubbing his temples.

"Did somebody get the number on that Tarus?" he looked over to the group that was leaning over the couch looking at him smiling like hyenas. " Did I just imagine it or did Hiiro just make fun of me?" giggles escaped from a few while they all nodded at once.

"Sugoi!" he scrambled off the floor while everyone fell anime style. Duo ran to Hiiro's room and pounded on the door. " He buddy. Wa ya do that for? You couldn't just grunt of pull your gun?!" he yelled through the door. There was a big grin on his face. He wanted to see if Hiiro would do anything. Nothing. His smile grew bigger. " Well if you are going to do that I guess I could start kissing you on the cheek when you came home. Though you may like that too much. " That got a response. The others couldn't believe what Duo had just said did he truly want to die? What ever the Braided-baka saw in the door way caused his grin to get bigger before he busted out laughing and took off out the dorm and down the hall with a very angry Japanese pilot behind him. No gun this time. He was going to kill the boy with his bare hands.

Duo had locked himself in to his Gundam and Hiiro was about to get into his to blow it apart when the others came in.

"Hiiro you will have to get you revenge another time. We have a mission." Quatra told him. Hiiro glared down at them then turned to the DeathSythe Hell and glared harder. After the mission he was going to blow that machine apart. He nodded and crawled into his Gundam as the others came up the stairs of elevator to get to theirs. Quatra explained the mission to Hiiro as they took off.

Usagi and Hotaru looked at each other and shook their heads. They turned to the console and turned the screen on. They saw Dr. J's claw come up.

" Hello J. did you want something?" Hotaru asked.

"This time I want Tenshi to be the one who goes in. Hiiro or one of the others will most likely come after it as well. If they do show up I want you to give as little of a confrontation as you can and give the disk to them. Then get out of there. They are not to see who you really are." Usagi winked and gave a peace sign before turning the screen off. She looked down at Hotaru confused.

' What does me doing that accomplish? It will only make them more angry then anything.'

Hotaru shrugged. " Dunno, but I have a feeling that you are going to find something there and you need to see it first hand."

Usagi nodded before turning to the lockers and putting on her outfit and heading for her Gundam. As she approached it the eyes flared a little the zero system inside felt something.

'I know zero I feel it too. Something is starting and it is big.'

She head towards the base the boys did. It was along the coast this time so it was easier for her to fly in unnoticed. Approaching she saw the tail tell signs of battle a head. The boys on arrival had met the bases mobile dolls. She watched as all five battled. These were stronger than what they faced before. Also something nagged her. These dolls reminded her of something but she couldn't figure out just what that was. Wing and DeathSythe got separated from the others and were fighting back to back. They were heavily out numbered and the others were having their own problems.

Had J. known that they would meet this type of opposition and needed her to go in? But how could he have known and why didn't he just let her fight out side and let the others go inside?

Zero wasn't coming up with any answers for her. It was one of the times it was perplexed as well. She cleared her mind and focused this was not time to get side tracked. There was a battle and she had a mission. She took off towards Wing and DeathSythe to help. After blasting away about half of the doll attacking the two she landed and headed for the room she needed.

"Hiiro! Damn! That other new Gundam Pilot just went inside. He is after the same thing."

"Roger. Quatra, Trowa, Wufei. Stay here and keep us covered. Duo and I are going in."

Three rogers rung out. The two landed theirs next to Usagi's and took off. Hiiro glanced at the Gundam from the corner of his eye. There was something very familiar about that suit and he couldn't place it. He shook it off and headed in the same direction as Usagi.

She had made it to the room with no complications. She sat before the computers and hacked in. her fingers never touching the keyboard. Not even J. could understand how she could do this. She was only supposed to be able to communicate with her laptop, palm pilot and her Gundam and that was it. Nor did he know she had the Zero System installed in her Gundam as well. It was all her little secret. She found what she was looking for. She stopped this wasn't it usual data on new suits. This was a plan of operations. What she could decipher was that they planned on assassinating some person named Millardo. She remembered seeing something on this name. He was Ririna's older brother. He was no threat to the Olympians that she knew of. Sure he attacked them a few times in the colony bases but nothing more. They were after Ririna, shouldn't they capture him and hold him hostage against her. This mission was getting weirder and weirder by the minuet. She heard Duo and Hiiro approaching and quickly copied two sets of disks. One she would keep to finish deciphering and the other she would give to the others.

Hiiro and Duo passed through the halls. They knew the pilot of that new Gundam passed through here. There were bodies of solders and guards knocked out. That surprised them. On the battlefield this pilot was ruthless. Attacked everything (but them) with out a second though. Why was this pilot now knocking guards out? Shouldn't there be bullet holes in them? Something was going on and they weren't getting the whole truth. They reached the room in time to see Usagi pull the second disk out of the drive. They pulled their guns and aimed.

" Who are you and who do you work for?" Hiiro barked out. The pilot froze. They wore combat boots, black jeans, a black jean jacket and a black cowboy hat. This had him taken back a little. The pilot raised its hands in the air. Hiiro glanced over to Duo and jerked his head towards the pilot. Duo and nodded and put his gun away. He walked over and grabbed the disk. He was about to spin the pilot around. When he was knocked down by a roundhouse kick. The pilots charged Hiiro and blazed pass him knocking him over. This guy was fast. Dou and Hiiro jumped up and took off. After knocking Duo down why didn't he take the disk (remember they don't know it is Usagi and think it is a guy)?

They ran back to their Gundams to see the other one blast off. Then climbed into theirs.

"Hiiro, Duo, are you okay? What happened?" Quatra came up on to the vid link.

" Mission accomplished. Head back the hanger." Hiiro turned of the link. He had forgotten the revenge on the American pilot. He was thinking of the new pilot. Zero told him this new pilot was not a threat. That confused him. Zero considered everything but the other Gundams a threat and needed to be destroyed. Why didn't it see this new comer as so?

He wanted answers and he was going to get them one way or another.

Usagi arrived back at the hanger and changed just in time to have the others come back. Hotaru tried to talk to her but Usagi ignored her. She watched as she put on a false smile for the boys. Hiiro and Duo seemed grumpier than usual. What had happened out there?

"Yui, what happened? We saw that other pilot go in and come out before you?" Wufei barked. Hiiro glared over to Wufei. Duo stepped in before Hiiro pulled out his gun and shot the Chinese pilot. He new his best friend wasn't in the mood for anything and would most likely shot the first thing that annoyed him. To bad Ririna wasn't there at the moment.

"Dunno. We found him in the control room just as he was taking out the disk he copied. I got it from him and before we could find out who it was he knocked me down, rushed Hiiro knocking him down and gone and into his suit before we got out. He didn't take the disk though." Duo pulled it out and showed them. " Another weird thing. None of the Soldiers we found were dead they were all knocked unconscious. "

This perplexed them and yet thrilled them. They hadn't had this much of a challenge in a while. They decided to head for the Preventers office and get answers. All the Doctors were there at the moment. Usagi and Hotaru told them good night and headed for the dorms. Once they got there. Hotaru had every intention on grilling Usagi. There was something more to what had happened and she wanted to know what.

It had taken her the worse part of two hours to get Hotaru to leave her alone. For some reason the little girl had it in her head that there was something else that happened. There was but she wasn't going to tell the girl about the information she had found. Not until she had all of it her self. The boys had come back a few minutes ago. They were not happy. They didn't get much information from the Doctors and the disk they gotten were taking to long to decipher. Usagi was having that trouble too. There was about four or five different codes and encryptions. She was having a hard time figuring were one ended and the next started. She gave up after an hour and left her computer to do it on it's own. She needed to wind down. It was too close of a call that night. If she hadn't of reacted quickly they would have for sure found out her secret and it was not the time yet. She got up and quietly crept out her room and walked over to Hiiro's. She heard him hacking away at his computer. He would be to into the thing to notice she had slipped out for a bit. She walked back to her room and changed out of her pj's. She slipped into a pear of gray sweat pants and a black tank top. Then climbed on to her balcony and made her way to the ground.

Hiiro was in his room trying to find anything on this new pilot. Something was familiar about that new Gundam and he wasn't sure what it was. Something silver caught his eye from the balcony. He grabbed his gun and crept over. He was in time to see Usagi launch herself over the side and take off towards the Gym area.

'What in the world is she doing now?'

He looked back at his computer and glared it wasn't giving him answers. His brain was so filled with different things he needed a little break. He decided to follow Tenshi and see what she was up to. He grabbed his jacket off the back of a chair and launched his self over the ledge following the same route Usagi did making sure that she didn't hear him.

He followed her to the school's ice rink. If he wasn't curious before he was now. Why on the world did she come here? He found a side door wide-open and crept in. all the lights were out but the few that lit up only the rink. Usagi was nowhere in sight. He made his way down to the rink making sure that if anyone was in side they couldn't see him. Just as he landed level with the rink he jumped startled. Someone had just turned the music on. His hand went to his gun as he scanned the area. He was not going to be caught in another trap. From behind him on the rink he heard a noise. He turned and aimed. He had to stop himself and drop back down. What he saw he had to admit was hilarious. This must have been when Ru was talking about when she said Tenshi was rather clumsy. She was falling down as soon as she could get back on to her feet. It wasn't the fact she was falling that was funny but they way she fell and her facial expressions were classic. It took all his training not to laugh out loud at the sight.

He was surprised when she finally made it to the wall and helped herself up. She seemed to be giggling. She stood up leaned against the wall and closed her eyes. She seemed to be concentrating on something. A smile crept across her face before she pushed off in time with the music. He was in awe as he watched the ballet on ice before him. The songs she had chosen had stuck him as odd. He had heard it before but never thought she would think it applied to her. (You just have to wait to find out which song too.) Usagi had came to an end. She was completely calm and relaxed. Waves of sleep came over her. In a few hours she would have to go to school.

'I had forgotten how much skating could calm me down. I am remembering a lot of things I use to do when I was the Princess. I wonder why?'

She got off the ice and headed to shut everything down. Movement caught her eye. She smiled to herself. She knew he had followed her. For some reason she could always feel when he was around more than the others. Since he knew she was out she could use the front door. It was rather hard to explain to a security guard one time how she was able to jump to her balcony that was three stories up with out trouble. She couldn't exactly say 'Oh I am a Sailor Senshi and have super human abilities.' She would be locked away in a little rubber room in a straight jacket. Her smile grew bigger that last thought reminded her of the next Gingerbread man's "attack".
