Spooky: I'm baaaaaaaaaaack! I bet you're all thinking, "about time." Well I haven't been able to update because we cut off our Internet and didn't get a new service until now.

Asar: Not a very good excuse.

Spooky: I know. sigh Anywho…this chapter's for looks at piece of paper Wufei!

Quatre lay there with her in his arms as she slipped off to sleep. He wondered what she was feeling. Finally when he was sure she was asleep. He let himself start to drift. He closed his eyes and relaxed. Glad he was here with her. It felt right. He wondered how she had found him. Then he slipped off to sleep.

Quatre awoke a few hours later from some noise. It had sounded like the door chime. Veronica shifted in his arms. Probably my imagination, he thought. Just then her door slid open. Quatre craned his neck to look. Heero and Duo walked into the room. Both were wearing an expression of shock at what they saw.

"What the…?" Heero trailed off.

"I told you they'd be here," said Duo, still looking shocked.

"Guys, what are you doing here?" asked Quatre quietly. Oh dear, this is not good, thought Quatre. They're going to think something happened when it didn't.

"Well we were looking for you," said Duo. "But it looks like you're busy." He grinned.

Quatre looked at Veronica then back at Duo and Heero. He looked panicked. "It's not what you think…"

"Oh come on Quatre, we saw the way you would look at her," said Duo. "It's obvious you love her."

Quatre tried to think of something to say. But nothing came.

"Quatre, tell them to leave," said Veronica softly but with force, her eyes still closed.

"Sally just sent us an email and you need to see it," said Heero irritated.

"Right," said Quatre sighing.

He pulled away from Veronica and stood up. He started buttoning up his shirt. Veronica groaned slightly then stretched. She opened her eyes and blinked against the light. She swung her legs over the couch and stood up.

"What's it about?" asked Quatre tucking in his shirt.

"A mission," said Heero.

"Yeah she wants us to meet her at a refueling station near L3," said Duo.

Veronica frowned. "We just passed that colony yesterday."

"Tell me about it," said Heero through gritted teeth.

"We were supposed to go to L4," explained Quatre. "But it looks like we'll need to take a shuttle from there."

"I was hoping she wouldn't do this to us. Now it'll take longer to get there," said Heero.

"Plus you guys are late for lunch," said Duo.

"I guess we slept a little to long," said Quatre sheepishly.

Duo gave Veronica a questioning look. She shrugged, smiling slightly.

"Well lets go," said Quatre. "I'll be back in a little while," he said to Veronica.

"I'll come with you," said Veronica.

"Great," said Quatre smiling.

1:25 P.M.

"I cannot believe she emails us after we've already passed the rendezvous point. I swear she must do this to annoy us!" exclaimed Wufei. "Stupid woman."

"She probably didn't have the problem or whatever until now," said Duo.

The five Gundam pilots and Veronica were standing around the table in Heero's room. Which looked like all the other rooms. A bed on one wall the door on the opposite, a small bathroom, and a table.

"Does she say what it is she wants?" asked Veronica.

"No. But she was probably afraid that the email could get traced," said Heero.

Duo sighed. "And I thought we were going to Quatre's to party."

"But Sally needs our help," said Quatre.

"I know," said Duo sighing.

"Hold on," said Veronica. "Who sent this email?"

"Sally Poe," answered Trowa.

"She's a high ranking official for the Preventors, isn't she?" asked Veronica.

"How do you know?" asked Heero suspiciously.

"I'm a hacker, remember?"

Heero scowled at her.

Veronica ignored it. "So you guys work as Preventors?"

"Yeah. But Sally's also a friend," said Duo. "Usually we work only part time."

"To earn some extra cash," said Wufei with a grunt.

Veronica thought for a moment. If she could get a job as a Preventor she could earn some extra money. But she still had a problem.

"Is something wrong?" asked Quatre.

"I need to get Darkstar fixed," said Veronica simply. "I just can't fly a mobile suit right into a colony. But I only have a day to fix him."

"Hey Heero why don't you help her fix it?" said Duo. "I mean, you were able to fix Wing in a day, so this should be no problem."

Heero nodded. "Fine. Do you want to start right now?"

"I'd actually like to get something to eat first," said Veronica.

"Well then, lets go," said Quatre.

So Quatre and Veronica headed for the mess hall.

Spooky: Well that's that chapter! I'll put up a new one if you review!

Asar: Until next time.

Spooky: Later!
