THREE MONTHS LATER (Basically, it's mid-December):
Heero sat at his laptop in deep thought. He had just presented the guys with an idea. Trowa, Duo, Wufei, and himself were going to try and locate any information on themselves on their search. They were definitely going to marry the girls, and they wanted to give them a real name. Not their code last name, but their real name. Before, they hadn't really cared who they were, seeing as all their lives they had been told that their families were dead, but now they were going to start a family of their own, and planned on giving their children a secure last name.
They (all of the guys) were all thinking quietly.
Duo was the first to speak. "Do you think that it will actually work?"
"I'm willing." Wufei said.
"So am I." Trowa said.
Heero nodded his head. He scanned his fingerprint onto the computer and put it to search. He then opened up three more windows and put Duo, Wufei, and Trowa's fingerprints to search for an exact match.
Duo's came up first. They all let out a relieved breath that it had worked and took a nervous breath, not knowing what to expect. They clicked on the link. The site read:
MISSING since birth: Duo Bartlett V; Approximate AGE: 18; FAMILY: Duo Bartlett IV, father, Caroline Bartlett, mother; LOCATION: NewYork City, New York.
The guys quickly looked up Duo and Caroline Bartlett.
Heero began to read: "Duo and Caroline Bartlett: Duo IV, is the owner of many large corporations, owning a large amount of stock in many different countries. He is greatly known for his works with missing children, since his own son, and only child, Duo the fifth, disappeared from the hospital, not two days after his birth. Duo is also known for his works in politics. Caroline, his wife of twenty-two years was a very talented actress, but is now president of many charities, most having to deal with helping the families cope with the loss of a child. She accompanies her husband to many places around the world, meeting with people who have lost a child in one way or another. They have refused to proclaim their son dead, and wish that if anyone has any information, to please contact them. Due to the attempts on their lives in September, they have been looking for a bodyguard, though the last two have proved to be hired to kill them by some unknown person."
Duo sat there for a long time, staring at the picture of his parents. He was the spitting image of his father, but had his mother's eyes. It was easy to see they were related. "I'll do it."
They all shook their heads, understanding that he wanted to meet them, and that the bodyguard's job was the perfect opening.
Trowa's search beeped. They all held their breaths for him. Heero clicked on the link. The site read:
MISSING since two: Anthony Russo III; Approximate AGE: 20; FAMILY: Anthony Russo II, father, Sophia Russo, mother; LOCATION: Florence, Italy
They looked up Anthony and Sophia Russo and the guys held their breaths once more.
Heero began reading: "Anthony Russo the second is a very powerful politician, though he keeps a low profile since the kidnapping of his only child, Anthony III, eighteen years ago. He is the founder of the Italian Missing Children's Foundation. His wife Sophia of Twenty-three years is the president of the Foundation and is active in the search of many children. Sophia, granddaughter to William Romafeller, was the owner of a multi- million dollar company, but sold it a few years before she married Anthony. She denies, as does her family, any dealings with the Romafeller Foundation during the wars. The couple publicly refuses to announce their son legally dead, and wish that any information dealing with their child be given to them. They are looking for a bodyguard, due to the sudden attempts on their lives last week."
Trowa looked at his parents. Though there were slight differences, he looked like his father. What differences there were, belonged to his mother, such as his green eyes.
Wufei's search beeped. Again, everyone held their breaths.
Heero clicked on the link. The site read:
MISSING since birth: Wufei Xin II; Approximate AGE: 18; FAMILY: Wufei Xin, father, Peipei Xin, mother; LOCATION: Hong Kong, China
Heero read aloud again, "Wufei Xin is a low profile politician and business man in China, though not much is heard of him since his son, Wufei II, was kidnapped from his crib at two months old. He and his wife of twenty years, Peipei, are the presidents of the Chinese branch of the Missing Children. Peipei was also a very successful businesswoman, as well as the daughter of General Tsaoui-zin. She was the partner of Castsaki Fa until right after her son's disappearance, when she sold her half to Fa. The couple refuses to proclaim their son dead and still await any information about his whereabouts. The couple's life was attempted on last Tuesday when a gunman came into their home. No one was killed, but many servants were injured. They are looking for a bodyguard."
The picture under the paragraph showed an older Wufei and a lovely, kind looking woman. It was definitely Wufei's parents.
"Isn't it strange that each one of them is looking for a bodyguard at the same time?" Duo mentioned.
Quatre looked at him. "Don't you watch the news?"
Duo looked at him. "I try to stay away from it. Why?"
"Every major political family has been attacked by some rebel group. They're all looking for bodyguards. My family hasn't been targeted because my parents are already dead and none of my sisters are in politics. I'm a Preventor, not a politician. We have enough pull, but not if all of our allies are dead."
While Quatre was talking, Heero had gone to his search. The site read:
MISSING since birth: Michael-Charles Tsatsuki; Approximate AGE: 18; FAMILY: Alexander-Charles Tsatsuki, father, Joanne Tsatsuki, mother, Alexander Tsatsuki, brother-deceased, Grace Tsatsuki, sister-in-law- deceased, Adriana Tsatsuki-niece; LOCATION: Okinawa, Japan
Trieze began to read Heero's information aloud. "Alexander-Charles Tsatsuki is a very low profile politician from Okinawa. Ever since the kidnapping of his youngest son, Michael-Charles, who was kidnapped straight from the nursery of their vacation home at three days old, Alexander has chosen to stay out of the news. His wife of twenty-five years, Joanne, is the president of the Japanese branch of the Missing Children's Foundation. Their oldest son, Alexander, a very promising lawyer, and their daughter-in- law, Grace, were murdered, by the father of a man he convicted of the slaughtering of four young women. They were brutally killed two years ago. They are raising their granddaughter, Adriana, now five, who is also very active with the Missing Children's Foundation. She is said to bring hope and comfort to the families. The couple's lives, as well as Adriana's, were attempted on last week, when, like so many lately, a gunman forced his way into their home. Fortunately, no one was killed, however, there are many servants in critical condition. The couple refuses to proclaim their youngest son dead. If you have any information, please contact them."
The picture was amazing. Heero had his mother's hair, but other than that, everything else looked like his father.
Seyia looked at the guys, who were all in deep thought. "What's the plan?"
"We're going to protect them. We'll go as bodyguards." Wufei said.
"Are you going to tell the girls?" Artemis asked.
They all looked at Heero. "No.I don't want them to know unless everything works out."
Seyia made a face. "That means all of us better disappear. Amara won't have any problem with blasting me if I refuse to tell Serena what happened to make you disappear."
Trieze smiled. "I don't think she'll have a problem with blasting me either when it comes to Serena. They're all extremely loyal to her."
Artemis smiled. "As they should be. She's died for them and is their future queen. She is also just as loyal to them."
"Meaning, we'd definitely be better off if we all disappeared for however long." Sammy said.
"Well, Millardo and I can go undercover and try to find some information in the colonies." Trieze said.
"Sammy, Artemis and I can go to my compound in the desert. Not even Serena knows about that. It's not in any of the files." Quatre said.
"Us three will go to one of the colonies. We'll tell our label that we're going there to get some writing ideas and that we're going to practice. We can tell them not to tell anybody, including Raye, and they won't." Taiki said.
"Yes, yes, I believe that this is a very good plan." A voice said from the doorway.
Everyone turned to see Dr. J and the other doctors, except for Trista.
"What are you doing here?" Heero asked them coldly.
"We came to assign these couple to you, wanting you to meet your families. I think it's about time that you did. Your plan will work. But you must not contact anyone. Will you accept you missions?"
Again, everyone looked at Heero. "Mission Accepted."
