**************************************************************************************************************
"Bastard." Angelina glowered at him before putting the car into gear and driving straight onto the grass field in front of them.
"When we come," Angelina paused to make a sharp veer around a tree.
"When we come up on Morgaine, pick her up from her waist and hold onto her tight." Angelina commanded both her hands on the steering wheel for better control over the bumpy grass and to avoid the trees and sand boxes. Duo nodded and put down his window, sitting outside of the car so that his legs where clamped to the side of the door and he was holding on to the board rack on top of the Blazer. A black clad figure could be seen running, and running fast not more than fifty feet in front of them. Duo looked at the car hood in surprise when a V8 roared to life. This is an SUV they only have V6's… Duo remembered but then remembered what he was supposed to do. Leaning back and putting his arm out he whistled to let Morgaine know just before his arm hooked around her small waist and hoisted her up off the ground and onto his lap.
"Got her!" Duo called to Angelina. The car countered with a strong pull on the wheel and jumped off a small hill and onto the street. Other drivers laid on their horns, cuss words trailing after them. Duo moved aside so Morgaine could slide into the car, but instead the blonde pulled herself onto the hood and opened up the back glass, swinging into the back, her butting hitting hard and slamming the back closed behind her.
"Have a nice frollick in the park, dear?" Angelina asked, slamming on the breaks, sending everyone jolting forward.
"Sorry…" A bashful look crossed the blonde haired girl when Morgaine glanced at her with daggers in her eyes.
"Please screw my car up… I'm going to need new wheels now." The blonde collapsed onto her back, her arms thrown out on either side of her as far as they would reach. Her chest fell up and down quickly as she fought to regain her breath.
"I said it before and I'll say it again," Morgaine's hand shot up and caught the water bottle Duo threw back to her. Her British accent was now clear as a bell on her innocent voice.
"We are out of shape!" The girl behind the steering wheel of the car chuckled, her shoulders softly shaking. One hand held the wheel at the 3 o'clock position while the other arm was propped up on the side of the door, sustaining her head that she rested it in the palm of her hand. Morgaine's groan sounded in the car and Angelina took her hand from the wheel to turn up the music.
"Shut up," Angelina muttered and rested her head back in the palm of her hand. They were sitting at a stop light, the music not quite pounding but loud enough to gain a few distasteful looks from elders around them. All the windows were down and Duo's ears finally caught the admiring whistle that was coming from his side. The hell? Shinigami looked back. Morgaine was resting on her crossed arms where the window should have been, her chin resting on her arms much like in the fashion of a bored five year old.
"Shut the hell up." Duo snapped and flipped them off; chucking a bottle at the guy that was getting ready to lean out the window. Rude cries of protest filled the air around them and Angelina sighed in frustration, slamming down on the gas and rocketing away just as the radiance hanging in the dark sky conveniently altered green. Duo saw why as he looked at the dashboard. A small clicker was attached to the dashboard. A closer examination he noted was the same signal transmitter that the police used to change the lights when they need to. Flashing your brights worked at times too but, like in the states, that was slowly being done away with became too many people were finding about it. (Honest… it works. Flash your brights before you come to a red light and the light will change green… but if you get caught you're gonna wish you hadn't. I didn't tell you this though… ^^;;;)
"Well aren't you pleasant?" Morgaine asked, gazing at her scuffed nails in disgust.
"I have a headache. And you're no better… killing him." Duo looked at Heero and then looked away.
"I didn't kill him!" Morgaine giggled hysterically and Angelina joined her. "Did I bloody look like I did?" Morgaine giggled even harder when she peeped at Duo's face.
"What?!" Duo demanded.
"I didn't kill him…. I grazed him with a bullet. Gosh… he's my bloody partner. He was talking too much, so I figured that would be the best way to make him shut the hell up!" Morgaine broke into another fit of giggles.
"Look," Morgaine crawled over to Heero and lovingly brushed away some of his rich, brown hair from his face. No use. "Heero… Heero, honey… time to wake up." Her soft hand tenderly stroked his cheek. Duo would have found this comically in normal situations. A girl, who was dressed in a trench coat, and all black clothes calling his best friend, honey. But right now he wasn't sure what to trust.
"You could have missed," Duo argued.
"I don't miss." Morgaine sounded affronted as she whispered a few more words to Heero, attempting to waken him. "Heero Yuy wake up!" She called in aggravation. There was a groan from the figure she was kneeling next to.
"Told ya," Morgaine grinned triumphantly at Duo and stopped trying to wake her partner up.
"I'm going to get some sleep. You two take a shift behind the wheel before waking me up." Duo gazed at Angelina before turning back to Heero. Morgaine had curled up, her head in his lap as Heero's head rested near the curve of her lithe waist, his arm around her, hand resting on the nape of her neck. A black hat with the emblem from Dragon in white on the front shadowed the upper half of her face, blocking out the streetlights they passed very five seconds, fleetingly illuminating the car. A yawn brought his attention back to Angelina.
"I can drive," Duo offered.
"No thanks," Angelina didn't look at him, her eyes almost closed as her head was still rested in the palm of her hand.
"Seriously you look like you could use your sleep. You look like hell. I can drive all night. Pull over we'll switch places." Duo noticed Angelina didn't argue as she swung over into the shoulder lane.
The rest of night was spent in the car, driving to the shuttle port, in silence. Duo had turned off the music when he heard Morgaine and Angelina's breathing become softer and slower.
Maybe I do over react… Duo thought as he gazed at the two in the back seat sleeping before he gazed at the woman next to him. Just maybe this was meant to happen…
******************************************************************************************************
~*Dawn*~
Duo yawned and stretched his arms over his head as he pulled into the lot of a shuttle, which he had been directed too as soon as he pulled up. The Blazer came to a halt and Duo stretched one more time before reaching over and gently shaking Angelina awake. There was a mumble of protest but indigo blue eyes fluttered open, and were rubbed groggily by their owner.
"We're here?" The words slurred out a half asleep teen-age girl. Duo nodded and turned in his seat, repeating again to Morgaine the favor. This time he was swatted away and sleepily told to "bugger off". (If you know any British people you'll know the equal of "bugger" to our language)
"I'll get her…" Angelina mumbled stupidly as she tried to straighten her wrinkled clothes in vain. Opening his door Duo stepped out the car and groaned. Leaning back he cracked his back and stretched out his stiff muscles.
"STOP IT!!!" A shriek split the still first light. The shuttle port was quite. Shuttles rested in waiting for their initial departure, only one station set. Warm colors of gold, red, orange, pink, yellow and a faint deep blue lit the heavens as cascades of blinding radiance stripped the night sky of any conquest. The early singing of birds danced over up raised arms of the foliage as a tender breeze encouraged emerald leaves; shinning with drops of liquid diamonds. One shape stood out in the glistening ambiance as they stretched the dull pain of frozen muscles from their body.
Heero jolted awake and shook his head, instantaneously regretting it as a migraine pulsated to life in his deprived cranium. "Jesus…" Heero swore and blinked numerous times, each one long a long heavy blink. "Where… the hell am I?" He asked and felt a weight in his lap. A certain part of him felt stiff and wasn't very consoling. "Now I know that's not…" Heero looked down and saw why that part of him was so uncomfortable. There was Morgaine, her head resting softly in his lap, her hair spilling across his legs and to the floor as she swatted away her 'wake up call'.
"Great," Heero put his right arm along the back of the bench seat as he massaged the back of his neck, gazing around quietly.
"Morning. Now if you would get up and wake her up in the process I would really appreciate it." Heero tilted his head back further towards the sound of the voice. There was Morgaine's friend, busying herself with unloading various duffel bags whilst calling random orders over her shoulder to unseen workers.
"Where the hell am I?" Heero demanded.
"Don't give her your shit, fly boy," Heero felt a small yet strong hand gently punch his stomach. A lump snuggled up against his hard stomach.
"I'm up Lina. Tell Brian to load the cars into a public shuttle. Unpack them first." Morgaine yawned and sat up leisurely.
"Affirmative. Get changed. The ports empty… it doesn't open up for another two hours." Angelina tossed a bag onto a baggage car.
"Where the hell am I?" Heero repeated. Morgaine looked over at him with a small smile on her lips. Getting back into the car and crawled on to the seat and knelt next to him.
"You, Heero Yuy, are coming with me, Morgaine Keef, to our house on earth, in California. You're in my Blazer at L1 shuttle station where our shuttle, Angelina's and mine, is being equipped for take off. Our Gundams, Wing ZERO Custom 2, Deathscythe Hell Custom 2, Enchantress Custom, and Destin Angel Custom are being locked down and closed up in another transport where it will follow us to earth. Another transport is bringing this car, and Angelina's BMW and Supra, your Ferrari, and Duo's corvette are being sent out just as soon as we get out of my car. Understood?" Morgaine looked at him with wicked mirth in her attractive eyes. Heero just glared at her for treating him like an adolescent.
"Very funny," He mumbled as he followed her into the spaceport.
"Not really. Change and make it quick." Morgaine tossed a bag at him from her duffel.
"You expect me to wear-"
"They're your clothes you freak!" Morgaine cried before walking to the bathroom. Heero glared at the spot where she had stood and stalked into the bathroom across the way.
Morgaine returned long after Heero had changed and showered. He was dressed in a black shirt with a Blind insignia shirt on and baggie pants. His hair, as usual forever hung his in eyes but this time it was damp and hung low into his eyes. Morgaine came strolling out of the bathroom, her bag hanging on one shoulder. She wore big baggie raver pants and another mid drift exposing halter top with criss cross back only this one was dark green with a silver base. Her hair was wet and near sweeping the ground.
"Do you always take this long to get ready?" Heero asked, taking her duffel bag from her as they walked down the large hall. The port was slowly filling up and people sent curious glances at the couple. Morgaine reached into her bag as they walked, her arm linked with Heero's. Pulling out her sunglasses, a jacket, her wallet and a deep green visor, she drew him towards a coffee shop.
"No…" Morgaine glimpsed at the menu. "I normally take longer. Oh come on Heero!" Morgaine slipped her arm around his waist. "Try and have some fun. I don't want to you hate me… I mean I can understand why you would- Hi can I get four café mochas?" Morgaine smiled at the young man behind the counter who smiled and winked at her. Heero automatically glared at the guy, sending him scurrying to fix the drinks.
"Anyway… as I was saying…" Morgaine looked up at him. "I can understand why you might hate me but seriously I don't want you to… I thought we could be friends."
"Friends?" Heero asked, looking into her eyes. His stomach started to feel weird. "You attempted to shoot me!"
"Yeah friends. Would that be okay –Thanks." Morgaine handed the money to the young man and took her change. Heero put his arm around her shoulders as she led them over to an undersized inexpressive counter with sugars; creams, ground chocolate and other coffee add ins.
"I suppose so," Heero said, adjusting the fastening to her duffel bag. Heero was rewarded with a breath-taking smile from the young woman stationed next to him.
"Heero you mean it!?" Morgaine asked loudly, causing everyone within in a fifty-foot radius took stare at them. "You truly mean it?" Heero nodded and staggered backwards when Morgaine flung her arms around his neck giggling. Putting one arm around her and the other on a table to keep them both from falling into a heap on the floor Heero sighed in irritation.
"Morgan," Heero said sternly.
"Oh," Morgaine's cheeks tainted cherry. Heero found it cute. "Sorry… I forgot. Here," Morgaine reached into the side pouch of the dark green duffle bag. "Put these on… I forgot to give them too you." Morgaine handed Heero a hat that was just like hers only black with a white symbol and a jacket.
"Why?" Heero pushed his wildly spiked bangs back before putting the hat on.
"Because," Morgaine took her bag from him and helped him put on the windbreaker. "There's a guy heading this way… who wants to murder us." Heero glance down at her sharply, pausing in straightening the collar. Morgaine sighed and fixed it for him. "It will hide half your face and hide these," Morgaine squeezed his arm. Morgaine turned her back and pulled on her windbreaker and hat. The jacket was forest green, matching her top and had the logo to A Team on the back. Heero grinned. He had to admit… she looked sexy in a hat and the jacket. A delicate finger was raised to the full lips of Morgaine as she moved to finish fixing the coffee.
This has got to look weird… Heero thought, taking a sip from one of the paper cups.
"Hey you, chick!" Someone yelled. Morgaine didn't move. Heero slipped his arm around her shoulders again and squeezed them gently. He felt her elbow nudge him. Looking down Heero saw a colt .45 caliber handgun being held out to him. Without visible movement she slammed a clip into and loaded a shell for a shot. Heero took it with a questioning look. Morgaine's almost unseen eyes looked down at the hand, which was resting near Heero's pocket. In her hand was the same M1911A1 Colt .45 pistol she had shot him with. With two trained fingers she pulled back on the cock of the gun with her middle and index knuckles, a bullet quietly clicking into place from its clip. Heero nodded his head slightly and turned his attention to listening.
"You! I'm talking to you, bitch!" the same voice yelled. Heero glanced around and saw a small group of the public that had bordered them gradually grow bigger.
