Lawyers: Tell them that you don't own Gundam Wing!!!
Leiko: Fine, fine!!! Don't get your undies in a twist! I don't own a Green Wig.
Lawyers: A GREEN WIG!?!?!
Leiko: Right, what'd I say?
Wufei: Just say the disclaimer.
Leiko: I did, I don't own digimon, how many times must I go over it with you people?
Suki yawned slightly as she woke up from her little nap. Bringing up her hands, she began to stretch. Only to be stopped by her hand hitting something hard. Frowning, she brought her hand up again. Her eyes still closed she patted the thing that her hand had hit.
Her frowned deepened. It wasn't the headboard... It was too soft... But it was WAY to hard to be a pillow. It was like touching a rock wall that was covered in a layer of cloth or something.
Then it all clicked. 'Please let me be wrong...' Suki slowly opened her eyes, afraid that she was right. She was.
She let out a strangled sound before jumping 6 feet away from shock. Well, she would have, but she was trapped. She was now stuck in a VERY compromising position. Suki and Wufei were both on the same bed. And to make things even more embarrassing for them, Wufei had his arms around her, and it didn't look like he was going to be letting go anytime soon.
After a few minutes of internal debating, Suki opted for trying to wake him up. "Wufei?" When he didn't wake up then, she began poking him on the chest, and saying his name over and over again.
She frowned. 'My Kami, he sleeps like a log!!!' Seeing that saying his name wasn't going to wake him up, she began to think of other ways. 'I could dump water on him... If I could get up...' Then, it hit her!
"Hey Wufei, Duo just came in here and stole your katana."
Sadly, all that made Wufei do, was pull her closer, and say, "Damn baka, always stealing my stuff... But not this time." And then he pulled her even closer so that there was barely any space left between them.
'Ok... That DEFINITELY didn't work.' "Um... Wufei, could you please wake up... This is starting to get a little... weird...." When Wufei STILL didn't move, Suki began to lose hope.
Sighing, she decided to try one more time. "Wufei... uh... you're missing your favorite show?" Yumi finished rather lamely.
Amazingly enough. It worked. In two seconds flat, Wufei was out of the bed and sitting on the floor, remote in hand, staring fixatedly at the screen. He then seemed to snap out of it. "Hey... This isn't Inuyasha..."(tee hee, I couldn't help it!)
"Yeah, um, sorry about that, I just wanted you to wake up..." Yumi grinned sheepishly, even though she really hadn't done anything wrong.
Wufei just raised an eyebrow at her. 'Ok... he's officially oblivious to his surroundings...' Yumi sweatdropped.
Wufei ignored her strange behavior, happily unaware of why she was an interesting shade of red. Looking at the clock he saw that it was time for them to leave. Walking over to the door, he grabbed a plastic bag and tossed it to the blushing girl, telling her that she had 5 minutes to change. He then walked into the bathroom after a short stop to grab some clothes.
Still blushing madly, Yumi opened the bag and pulled out the clothes that it contained. Before she changed she made sure that the bathroom door was securely shut. That done, she proceeded to change.
When she finished, she looked over her new outfit. 'This person has good taste...' She was wearing her favorite kind of formal wear. INformal wear. She was wearing black cargo pants and a semi-formal maroon wrap shirt. Yumi decided to leave her hair down and quickly ran a brush through it.
She had just finished brushing her hair when there was a knock on the door. "Yo, Wu-man, Yu-girl, are ya ready ta go?"
Yumi faced the door, her left eye twitching. 'Y-y-yu-girl? My Kami, this boy just doesn't get it does he?' "Duo, you call me that again and..." Her voice trailed off there.
"You'll do what? So you're as scary as Wu-man, it's not like you could actually do anything to me!" Was his cocky reply.
"Duo... You call me Yu-girl again, and I'm going to rip out your spinal cord and beat you with it!!!" She then jerked open the door and finished off her threat with an excellent death glare. "Got it?" She asked, grabbing his collar and pulling his face down closer to hers.
Wufei cleared his voice from behind Yumi, and she shoved Duo against the door, and pointed at him when she walked past, silently reminding him of her threat.
Wufei raised an eyebrow, questioning her motions. Duo shrugged and re- gathered himself. "Oh you know... The usual death threat... It's not like I KNEW she was as touchy as you about her name..."
Wufei shook his head. 'Maxwell will never learn...' Using his long strides, he soon caught up with Yumi. Placing a light hand on her shoulder, he was surprised when she flinched and whirled around to face him with scared eyes. Wufei merely raised an eyebrow at her behavior. 'Damn she's jumpy...'
"Oh, it's just you Wufei..." She saw his pointed look and quickly rephrased her sentence. "Sorry! ... I just thought that you were someone else for a second there..." She sweatdropped and rubbed the back of her head nervously. Luckily for her, Wufei let her slip up slide. And I'm not talking about her being rude, I'm talking about her being all jumpy and crap.
Wufei shrugged and led the way down the myriad of halls that he had long since memorized. When they finally reached end of the human sized death trap, they had accumulated a few more people. Yumi hadn't really been paying any attention to her surroundings whatsoever, and seeing some of the people of their little group threw her off for a second.
"KIN, MUZUNA, KASHAKU!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!" She stared at them, her eyes as large as saucers.
Kin and Kashaku also looked at her in surprise. "Y-Yumi!?!" Now their jaws were hanging open as well as them having saucer eyes.
They both stared at her. Kashaku was the one who finally broke the silence. "Yumi? I don't get it... You sound like Yumi... But you don't dress like her... and you don't have glasses... But then again, you know our names AND you respond to Yumi..." Kashaku then held her head in her hands and ran around in circles screaming about being confused.
Kin's method was more direct. "WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU!?!"
At her more... "Direct" approach, Kin received being hit on the head for her try. "Kin, please try to keep up. This IS Yumi Sakamura as well as Yumi Kasamura princess of this colony." Mizuna stated as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
All she got for her explanation was the two completely blank faces of her friends. "Say what?" Kin asked her blue-haired friend.
Mizuna sweatdropped ever so slightly before sighing in resignation. "Yumi, explain it to them."
Yumi's eyes widened before she shook her head violently. Mizuna sighed at her reaction and hit her on the head as well. "Yumi, they're all Gundam pilots and I'm a class S assassin. We know how to keep secrets."
Yumi bit her lip and looked around at all of the faces staring at her... Well, most of them were... Duo was grinning lecherously at Kin while she glared daggers at him, but other than that she had the rest's full attention. She sighed and nodded before explaining her story.
"Um... I think that this double identity really started when I was 7... I loved to read, but it was "unseemly" for a princess to read as much as I did. So... I just disguised myself as a serving girl, using a brown wig and a pair of glasses. A few years after that... I wasn't allowed to play with any of the other children... They were all "Beneath" me. So I once again wore my disguise and played with them. Or... At least I tried to." Yumi paused and laughed lightly here. "It was funny really... All I ever wanted was to be treated like their equal... But they thought themselves better than me, so I, never been talked to in such a manner, fought back. As you can probably imagine, that didn't turn out so well. That's where my alter ego comes in. And as for school, when I learned that I had to attend, I decided to be Yumi Sakamura because while I hate being treated like I'm nothing, I hate being doted on more." She shrugged; her abbreviated life's history wasn't really all that special. If you left out the fact that her so-called-family enjoyed beating her on a daily basis. But they didn't need to know that.
Turning she continued out into the bright morning sunlight. Only to walk back in and demand a better explanation for her friend's unexpected appearances.
Kin and Kashaku's heads were still spinning from Yumi's news... Well, not really. Kin was busy watching Duo's hands, and Kashaku was to busy dancing around in circles around Trowa. The only one who wouldn't trip her if she did so, other than Quatre, but she liked the mysterious brunette more. Seeing this, Mizuna took the initiative.
"It's simple really, the doctors trained two other pilots to become Gundam pilots, and they were just never needed. As for myself, my late father was an assassin as was my mother, and they trained me. I am now the best assassin in the business." The blue-haired girl frowned here. "Aside from Heero." She added as more of an afterthought.
Yumi nodded. 'Why not.' She asked herself sarcastically, it's not like their story was any less believable than hers, probably more so. This being all cleared up, she grabbed Wufei's hand and practically dragged him outside.
She finally stopped in front of a huge parking garage full of cars. "Ok, which one's yours?"
Wufei glared at her. She sweatdropped. "Um... I'm sorry?" He nodded acceptance and went over to his car. Walking around to the driver's side, he ran a hand along its dark black hood. Pressing the unlock button on his keys, he hopped into his Custom BMW Z-4 Roadster. Yumi followed suit and in no time they were speeding down the highway towards school.
During their trip, Yumi had been lost in her own little la-la-land, and was surprised when she saw that they had already arrived. Before she could get out, the doors locked, trapping her in the ULTRA-COOL car. "Um... Wufei?" She asked, a little creeped out by this turn of events.
Wufei stared at her for a while before bringing his hand up and lightly touching her cheek. Yumi flinched away.
"Wufei... What are you doing?" Yumi asked, fear practically coming off her in waves.
Wufei's eyes hardened as he watched her reaction carefully. After what seemed like hours, he finally spoke. "You flinch whenever I touch you... And when you do something that has the slightest possibility of getting me angry." He pointed out in a calm voice.
"A-and?" She asked nervously. Though this time it was because she was afraid that he would figure out her little "family secret."
He continued to stare at her, although this time his gaze held more of a don't-play-dumb-with-me-you-had-better-spit-it-out-if-out-know-what's-good- for-you look rather than a pensive thoughtful one.
She laughed nervously and began babbling, as she tended to do when put under extreme pressure from people she actually admired. "What? It's not like my family beats me or anything, that's not it if that's what your thinking! And there is no gash in my side, you're crazy, where ever did you get that idea? My brother didn't knock me down the stairs and onto a priceless vase! I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT!!!"
Wufei was now just staring at her with a mix of surprise from the news, and of disbelief that she had actually just told him all that without seeming to notice it.
"Um... Oops?" Now that he wasn't glaring at her, she had regained her senses, along with a nice bright red blush.
Yumi was saved further embarrassment, and questions, by the arrival of the rest of their group. Heero and Mizuna were the first to pull up in the Gundam pilot's black SRT-10 viper, followed closely by Duo and Kin on Duo's custom black Suzuki motorcycle. Seconds later Quatre appeared in his silver Boxster bringing with a girl that Yumi didn't recognize.
The last to arrive was Trowa and Kashaku in Trowa's dark green Esperente. Yumi wondered why they were the last to arrive, but knew when Kashaku jumped out of the car holding breakfast take-out.
A soft "Click" brought Yumi out of her thoughts. Wufei had unlocked the doors and was now patiently waiting for her to get out so that he could lock the doors.
Complying with his silent request, Yumi slowly got out of the car and began walking towards her class making sure not to look at the Chinese pilot.
Yumi was about halfway to her class when she was roughly shoved to the ground. At least she would have been if her fighting instincts hadn't kicked in and flipped her would-be-assailant over her hip. Turning, she faced her attacker. Her eyes widened behind her thick glasses. 'Damn... Oh well... Maybe I can just write it off as a reflex... Or, better yet, she tripped!!!'
Kimiko glared up at her from the ground. "YOU BITCH!!!!!! WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND ANOTHER THING! WHY THE HELL DID YOU DRIVE UP WITH WUFEI!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!"
Something inside Yumi snapped. Maybe it was Wufei finding out about her past, maybe it was the whole fiancé mess, or maybe Kimiko's voice just pushed her over the edge. Whatever it was, Yumi was now pissed off. "Kimiko." She said in a falsely sweet voice.
"What?"
"Why don't you just... SHUT THE HELL UP AND KEEP YOUR OVERLY LARGE NOSE OUT OF MY BUSINESS!!!" Yumi then whirled around, but before she left, she turned her head to face the sputtering girl. Putting a hand to her lips, Yumi then patted her butt silently saying, "Kiss my ass."
Having appeared on the scene a few seconds earlier, the gang watched Yumi stroll towards the school with mixed feelings. Kin and Duo were both cheering her on, Quatre was trying to keep a straight face, Trowa, Mizuna and Heero were wearing smirks, and lastly, we go to the new girl and Kashaku, both were wondering why she had kissed her fingers, and then patted her butt.
Wufei however, didn't seem to have noticed the little "tiff."(Tiff is a fun word!!!) Seeing that the Chinese boy wasn't paying attention, Duo took this opportunity to...
Take Wufei's katana. Unfortunately for the braided pilot, even when Wufei's lost in his own little world, you still can't take his katana. "SLAM!!!" Wufei continued on his was into the school not sparing a glance to the twitching pilot.
"Duo? DUUUUUUUUUOOOOOO!!! Are you okay?" Before Kashaku could get near the fallen pilot, her elbow was grabbed and the brown-haired pilot totted her off to her class.
The rest of the pilots knew Duo, so they too grabbed the girl they brought with them, and dragged them off to class. Leaving Duo's golden goddess to assist him. Which she did, against her better judgment.
Shaking him lightly, Kin tried to wake up the braided pilot. Seeing that this wasn't getting her anywhere, she pulled a cup of water out of nowhere and dumped its contents on the unconscious boy.
"Did anyone get the number of that truck?" Duo asked groggily, pushing himself into sitting position. He was holding his head in one hand and looking at the ground when he spotted two Nike clad feet. As his gaze traveled upward he saw that whoever it was wearing black carpenter pants, a black bottle cap belt and a black shirt that read, "If you can't laugh at yourself, laugh at others" written in sparkly gold. He finally finished his inspection of her when he looked at her face; long golden hair that flowed down her back, molten gold eyes and full pink lips. "Am I in heaven, 'cause you have to be an angel..."
It was then that he became fully conscious and realized who he was speaking to. 'Oh crap... I'm gonna die!!!'
To say that Duo was stunned would be the understatement of the year. Instead of pummeling him, Kin smiled slightly and blushed a very nice shade of pink.
Duo grinned back and fully stood up offering her his arm. "Shall we?"
Kin blushed harder and accepted his arm walking happily off into the building with her new boyfriend.
Trowa continued dragging the confused redhead down random halls until he finally stopped just around the corner from their first class. Just as he opened his mouth to say something, he was interrupted by another voice.
"Hey Kashaku..." Came a deep voice from beside them. "You're not busy this Saturday are you? Because I want to take you skiing at my family's resort... Since it's in the middle of a big business venture, my parents won't be able to come... So it'll be you and me, alone in the frozen mountains, what'd you think?" While he said this, the flaxen haired boy slid in between Kashaku and Trowa.
Trowa frowned at the boy's back. "We were in the middle of a conversation." He stated mildly enough, but his tone held an underlying note of anger.
"I think the lady would rather be talking to me. Wouldn't you babe?" The blue-eyed boy asked, bringing his face close to Kashaku's.
This time Trowa didn't say anything; instead he opted for shoving the boy into the opposite wall. "Trowa that wasn't very nice..."
He shrugged and putting his arm around her shoulders he steered her to the classroom.
Heero and Mizuna both had the first period free so they went off in search of an actual breakfast.
Heero walked into the Starbucks to buy them both a cup of hot chocolate and a cinnamon roll leaving Mizuna alone on the bench to ponder her own little thoughts.
Mizuna's head snapped up when she heard a girl's scream coming from the alley. Practically throwing herself off the bench, she raced across the sidewalk and into its shadow. When her eyes adjusted to the darkness what she saw sickened her.
Venting her rage through a bloodcurdling scream, the blue-haired assassin launched herself past the gang's outer ring and took up a protective stance in front of the little girl that they had been beating.
"Well lookie what we have here boys... Another pretty little girl to play with!" Mizuna glared at the obvious leader of the group. He appeared to be only a few years older than herself with blond red-streaked hair and spooky red eyes.
"No boss, she looks older... And a lot more fun!" Came a second voice in an EXTREMELY perverted tone.
Just as the gang began advancing on her, there was a gunshot. "Leave my girlfriend alone."
"And just who are you hotshot?" The now pissed leader asked, turning to face the intruder.
Because of the weird angle of the light, the only part of Heero that you could see was his arm and gun, and his mouth, which was currently set in an I'm-going-to-brutally-murder-you smirk. He then stepped into the light.
The gang all choked on their own spit. "I-I-it's HEERO YUY!!! RUN FOR IT!!!!!!!!!"
Mizuna wasn't really sure who had said this, though it didn't really matter, either way you looked at it, the gang was running around like chickens with their heads cut off.
Heero walked over to her with a deadly calm. "I told you to wait."
Mizuna gave him an apologetic smile before turning to face the little girl. "Hi there, are you hurt at all?"
Right as the words were out of her mouth, the little girl ran past her and Heero and jumped into the arms of a middle-aged woman who was apparently her mother. The mother bowed and thanked them before wandering off with her child.
Heero and Mizuna went back to the bench where their food was waiting. Not looking at the blue-eyed girl next to him, Heero took a sip of his drink before speaking. "Why?"
Mizuna shrugged. "Maybe I just wanted to be saved by prince charming..."
Leiko: KAWAII COUPLE MOMENTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yumi: You know... I just realized something...
Kashaku: What?
Yumi: WUFEI STILL HASN'T ANSWERED ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mizuna: Living room.
Yumi: Thank you.
Yumi runs out intent on beating the answer out of him
Heero: Read and Review.
Readers: HEE-CHAN!!!
Jump to hug him only to be stopped by his and Mizuna's glares
Readers: Never mind...
Lawyers: Tell them that you don't own Gundam Wing!!!
Leiko: Fine, fine!!! Don't get your undies in a twist! I don't own a Green Wig.
Lawyers: A GREEN WIG!?!?!
Leiko: Right, what'd I say?
Wufei: Just say the disclaimer.
Leiko: I did, I don't own digimon, how many times must I go over it with you people?

A soft "Click" brought Yumi out of her thoughts. Wufei had unlocked the doors and was now patiently waiting for her to get out so that he could lock the doors.
Complying with his silent request, Yumi slowly got out of the car and began walking towards her class making sure not to look at the Chinese pilot.
Yumi was about halfway to her class when she was roughly shoved to the ground. At least she would have been if her fighting instincts hadn't kicked in and flipped her would-be-assailant over her hip. Turning, she faced her attacker. Her eyes widened behind her thick glasses. 'Damn... Oh well... Maybe I can just write it off as a reflex... Or, better yet, she tripped!!!'
Kimiko glared up at her from the ground. "YOU BITCH!!!!!! WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND ANOTHER THING! WHY THE HELL DID YOU DRIVE UP WITH WUFEI!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!"
Something inside Yumi snapped. Maybe it was Wufei finding out about her past, maybe it was the whole fiancé mess, or maybe Kimiko's voice just pushed her over the edge. Whatever it was, Yumi was now pissed off. "Kimiko." She said in a falsely sweet voice.
"What?"
"Why don't you just... SHUT THE HELL UP AND KEEP YOUR OVERLY LARGE NOSE OUT OF MY BUSINESS!!!" Yumi then whirled around, but before she left, she turned her head to face the sputtering girl. Putting a hand to her lips, Yumi then patted her butt silently saying, "Kiss my ass."
Having appeared on the scene a few seconds earlier, the gang watched Yumi stroll towards the school with mixed feelings. Kin and Duo were both cheering her on, Quatre was trying to keep a straight face, Trowa, Mizuna and Heero were wearing smirks, and lastly, we go to the new girl and Kashaku, both were wondering why she had kissed her fingers, and then patted her butt.
Wufei however, didn't seem to have noticed the little "tiff."(Tiff is a fun word!!!) Seeing that the Chinese boy wasn't paying attention, Duo took this opportunity to...
Take Wufei's katana. Unfortunately for the braided pilot, even when Wufei's lost in his own little world, you still can't take his katana. "SLAM!!!" Wufei continued on his was into the school not sparing a glance to the twitching pilot.
"Duo? DUUUUUUUUUOOOOOO!!! Are you okay?" Before Kashaku could get near the fallen pilot, her elbow was grabbed and the brown-haired pilot totted her off to her class.
The rest of the pilots knew Duo, so they too grabbed the girl they brought with them, and dragged them off to class. Leaving Duo's golden goddess to assist him. Which she did, against her better judgment.
Shaking him lightly, Kin tried to wake up the braided pilot. Seeing that this wasn't getting her anywhere, she pulled a cup of water out of nowhere and dumped its contents on the unconscious boy.
"Did anyone get the number of that truck?" Duo asked groggily, pushing himself into sitting position. He was holding his head in one hand and looking at the ground when he spotted two Nike clad feet. As his gaze traveled upward he saw that whoever it was wearing black carpenter pants, a black bottle cap belt and a black shirt that read, "If you can't laugh at yourself, laugh at others" written in sparkly gold. He finally finished his inspection of her when he looked at her face; long golden hair that flowed down her back, molten gold eyes and full pink lips. "Am I in heaven, 'cause you have to be an angel..."
It was then that he became fully conscious and realized who he was speaking to. 'Oh crap... I'm gonna die!!!'
To say that Duo was stunned would be the understatement of the year. Instead of pummeling him, Kin smiled slightly and blushed a very nice shade of pink.
Duo grinned back and fully stood up offering her his arm. "Shall we?"
Kin blushed harder and accepted his arm walking happily off into the building with her new boyfriend.
Trowa continued dragging the confused redhead down random halls until he finally stopped just around the corner from their first class. Just as he opened his mouth to say something, he was interrupted by another voice.
"Hey Kashaku..." Came a deep voice from beside them. "You're not busy this Saturday are you? Because I want to take you skiing at my family's resort... Since it's in the middle of a big business venture, my parents won't be able to come... So it'll be you and me, alone in the frozen mountains, what'd you think?" While he said this, the flaxen haired boy slid in between Kashaku and Trowa.
Trowa frowned at the boy's back. "We were in the middle of a conversation." He stated mildly enough, but his tone held an underlying note of anger.
"I think the lady would rather be talking to me. Wouldn't you babe?" The blue-eyed boy asked, bringing his face close to Kashaku's.
This time Trowa didn't say anything; instead he opted for shoving the boy into the opposite wall. "Trowa that wasn't very nice..."
He shrugged and putting his arm around her shoulders he steered her to the classroom.
Heero and Mizuna both had the first period free so they went off in search of an actual breakfast.
Heero walked into the Starbucks to buy them both a cup of hot chocolate and a cinnamon roll leaving Mizuna alone on the bench to ponder her own little thoughts.
Mizuna's head snapped up when she heard a girl's scream coming from the alley. Practically throwing herself off the bench, she raced across the sidewalk and into its shadow. When her eyes adjusted to the darkness what she saw sickened her.
Venting her rage through a bloodcurdling scream, the blue-haired assassin launched herself past the gang's outer ring and took up a protective stance in front of the little girl that they had been beating.
"Well lookie what we have here boys... Another pretty little girl to play with!" Mizuna glared at the obvious leader of the group. He appeared to be only a few years older than herself with blond red-streaked hair and spooky red eyes.
"No boss, she looks older... And a lot more fun!" Came a second voice in an EXTREMELY perverted tone.
Just as the gang began advancing on her, there was a gunshot. "Leave my girlfriend alone."
"And just who are you hotshot?" The now pissed leader asked, turning to face the intruder.
Because of the weird angle of the light, the only part of Heero that you could see was his arm and gun, and his mouth, which was currently set in an I'm-going-to-brutally-murder-you smirk. He then stepped into the light.
The gang all choked on their own spit. "I-I-it's HEERO YUY!!! RUN FOR IT!!!!!!!!!"
Mizuna wasn't really sure who had said this, though it didn't really matter, either way you looked at it, the gang was running around like chickens with their heads cut off.
Heero walked over to her with a deadly calm. "I told you to wait."
Mizuna gave him an apologetic smile before turning to face the little girl. "Hi there, are you hurt at all?"
Right as the words were out of her mouth, the little girl ran past her and Heero and jumped into the arms of a middle-aged woman who was apparently her mother. The mother bowed and thanked them before wandering off with her child.
Heero and Mizuna went back to the bench where their food was waiting. Not looking at the blue-eyed girl next to him, Heero took a sip of his drink before speaking. "Why?"
Mizuna shrugged. "Maybe I just wanted to be saved by prince charming..."
