------------------------

The twins wandered down a hallway and entered a small room, a lap top laid on the desk and shelves above it were laden with books. Kairi hopped on top of the desk and began pulling out books, looking at the titles then tossing them over her shoulder into a neat pile on the bed Kuri started to press buttons on the lap top giggling at the blinking lights

.They continued like this for a long time until Heero walked into the room. It took him a second to register exactly what was taking place, and even less time for him to act. With swift movements he managed to grab his laptop from one twin, then neatly catch the book being thrown by the other twin. after placing the book on the bed he grabbed her wrist preventing her from tossing any more volumes. She looked up at him her eyes wide with fear, her twin sister not knowing what to do. "What are you doing in my room." He said emotionlessly.

Kuri screamed, and her twin joined in.

Yume busted into the room and kicked him in the kneecap. Heero grunted and that was the only acknowledgement he made. Yume glared up at him defiantly. Her body language clearly asked him why he had not yet released her sister. Heero glared down at her. "And you are?"

"Her older sister now let her go." Stated the ten-year-old.

Heero regarded the little girl he had in his grip. She looked like she wanted to cry but also didn't want to let the tears fall. He looked over his shoulder at the other little girl, same expression but with a little more defiance and rebellion. His attention returned to the oldest. "Why?"

"You are scaring her."

"She has a reason to be scared, I don't like people touching my things much less invading my personal area."

"and you think she knew this? She's three."

"Old enough to know she shouldn't just burst into closed rooms."

"But the door was open." Said the little girl in the chair.

"I find that highly unlikely unless someone else opened the door."

Duo who had been watching this with the others cleared his throat. Heero looked over at him. "Uh, I left the door open."

"Well that explains everything."

Heero lifted Kairi off the desk and onto the floor. Kairi went to the protection of her older sister her twin following. Heero looked down at all three of the children. "Get out."

"Um…Duo-chan said we live here too."

"Well, did that braided-baka mention anything about invading other people's privacy?"

"Um…No he didn't…but it was them not me and they're three."

"Yet again old enough to know better."

"Okay let's go." Quatre stated taking Yume by the hand and leading her and the twins out of the room, Wufei and Trowa following.

Heero watched Duo leave after them then closed the door. He spent an hour fixing his lap top and putting his books back on their shelves. Then he placed a lock on his door.

Heero then went to find Duo, Duo at the time was tucking in Yume when Heero walked into the room.

Heero is about to say something but Duo shook his head and put a finger to his lips in a quieting gesture and motioned him into the hallway and closed Yume's door.

"What the hell is going on?"

"I adopted Yume, Kuri, and Kairi."

"Okay, Why?"

Duo leaned against the wall casual like, placing his hands behind his head he laughed a little. "They kinda reminded me of me and someone else…though I can't think of who."

"And this prompted you to adopt three small children."

"Oh, I dunno I guess I wanted to hear three kids laughing."

"Well, that's where you come in Duo."

"It's not the same thing. It's hard for me to explain I just did and they are not going back."

"I never said they were." Heero then walked away.

Yume breathed quietly, deep in sleep. The howling wind and pounding rain didn't bother her at all. In fact, it lulled her into sleep. It wasn't until she felt something crawling through her sheets that she woke up slightly. Thunder clapped and she heard the muffled shrieks of her younger siblings. They curled up beside her, trembling.

"What's wrong with you two?" she asked through her veil of sleep.

"The storm is scary. We don't like it," Kuri replied. Kairi nodded, then snuggled deeper into her older sister.

"Well, it isn't that bad…" Just as she spoke, an especially bad clap of thunder and an especially bright bolt of lightning went off. All three girls screamed and took off running, stumbling through tangled bedsheets and over each other. Once out the door and in the hall, the trio took to the nearest door, opened it, and jumped into the bed. Someone groaned as they covered themselves completely with the blankets.

It didn't take long for Heero to come to. Being a light sleeper naturally did that to a person. In instant reaction, he reached for the gun under his pillow, the safety clicking off. His eyes quickly scanned the room for intruders, then saw the shivering mass of sheets and blankets. Cautiously he reached out, yanked the things away, then aimed. The shrieks and screams of 'Please don't eat us' reached his ears. He relaxed but it wasn't visible to the children. He put the safety back on, then put it back under his pillow.

"What did I tell you about coming into my room?"

Yume looked at him almost sheepishly. Almost. "We're sorry, but the twins got scared and then they ran off, and then I had to chase them, and then…"

Heero held up a hand, silencing her. "Enough, I didn't ask for a narrative. I just want to know if any of what I said earlier managed to sink in." Thunder again sounded. The girls ducked, one actually reachign for and clinging to him. He couldn't tell which one it was, it was too dark.

"Go back to your own rooms," he began. Before he could figure out what was going on, the outlines of the girls were gone. He heard scrambling from underneath the bed, excited and terrified whisphers, and the thumping of heads and feet and hands against the bed frame. Keeping his temper under check, he kneeled on the floor. Three pairs of feet stuck out. He grabbed two pairs of ankles, pulled and put the shocked children on the bed. He did the same for the other one. He ran a hand through his hair.

"Explain to me why you can't go terrorize any of the others."

"This was the closest room," Kairi said simply, thumb going in mouth. He groaned.

"Fine, take the bed, I'll sleep on the floor."

"What?" Yume said, startled. "But, Mr. Meany, you can't sleep on the floor. Besides, we'd still get scared. Mamma used to cuddle with us when we were scared."

"I. Don't. Do. Cuddling." He replied evenly.

The next morning, Duo walked into Heero's room, intending to ask if he had seen the girls, but shut his mouth after letting it hang open in complete, total, and utter shock.

In Heero's bed, Yume was leaning on Heero, sleeping peacefully, Kuri following Yume's example, and Kairi laying in Heero's lap, drooling slightly but otherwise 'unconsious'. The Perfect Solider himself was leaning against the headboard, one arm around Kuri and the other keeping the blankets around the girls. Smiling to himself and thinking of what a nice family kind of picture they made, Duo quietly closed the door. Duo hid a small camera back into his pocket as he went back to his room...
