Steal My Heart
"Perfect Meetings"
Disclaimer: No I don't own Gundam Wing, if I did Relena would be dead, Heero & Duo would be married, Wufei would have his hair down and not greasy, Trowa and Quatre would be married with children,(don't know how that works), and Noin would be Lesbian because I hate how she's all clingy to Zechs.

Heero's POV
"Heero! Did you hear the news?" Quatre, one of the corporations managers said entering my office.
"Hm?" I said looking over the information I gathered on the robberies from the previous day.
"Another artifact was stolen last night in the Leviathan Museum of Primordial Art! Treize is beginning to get very annoyed with all the complaints he's getting! And when he's annoyed who does he complain to?" Quatre said practically in tears of frustration.
"Une." I answered.
"Exactly, and who gets yelled at when that happens?" he blubbered.
"Noin." I responded.
"And then!?" he exclaimed.
"Zechs." I answered again.
"And after that?" he said practically bursting.
"Relena." I shuddered just saying her name. She's so annoying, I actually hide from her when she comes around. Of course, Quatre being as nice as he is doesn't.
"Right, and who gets stuck listening to her complain because nobody else can stand her!" Quatre cried.
"You." I said.
"EXACTLY!" Quatre uncharacteristically yelled.
"I feel for you. That's the worst person anyone can ever get stuck with. Hell, even her own brother can't stand her" I said sorting out my paperwork.
"Yeah, and what's worse is by the time it gets to Relena it's about six complaints, so add that with the complaints of Relena!" he said collapsing on a chair near my desk.
"You need therapy." I snorted.
"Don't I know it! You're lucky because I only tell you about two complaints! If I complained to you about all the other complaints, you'd clearly see why I'm so stressed!" he said whimpering.
"Maybe we should schedule in somewhere to see Doctor J?" said a voice behind Quatre.
"Ahh! Rashid! You startled me! You have some paperwork for me, I'm guessing." Quatre told his secretary. Yes a man. It is unusual.
"Don't worry Quatre, I'll double my efforts so you can get a break." I told the blonde.
"Thanks Heero." he said calming a bit.
"Wait, what was the artifact that was stolen?" I asked before he left.
"The statue of Lady Isis Vera." he said taking a second to remember the name.
"How valuable was it?" I said getting ready to write down its information.
"Very. It has jewels of all kind imbedded in it, and it was sculpted of pure marble."
"Hm…thanks Quatre."
"Sure thing Heero, anytime." he then left with his secretary and I went back to my information. Then I finally noticed something that I hadn't before. "Hm..it looks like…maybe…hm…" I got up from my chair and went to Une's office and knocked on her door.
"Who is it?" she called.
"Heero."
"Come in."
"Une, after looking over the evidence and other information gathered, it appears that the thief does in fact have some sort of pattern." I said once seated on a chair before her desk.
"Really? So it's not just random thefts." she said leaning a bit forward resting her head on her hands.
"No, in fact there was a similar pattern done about seven years ago."
"Go on."
"It was done by a man name Howard." I said.
"Shinigami." she said nodding.
"Yes. I have reason to believe that whoever has been doing the recent thefts is trying to duplicate the similar pattern done by the former Shinigami seven years ago." I said summing up my hypothesis.
"So whoever they are must have really done their research."
"Maybe, but there are rumors speculating that perhaps the previous Shinigami had undertook a student before he was captured in L4."
"That is a possibility, but we'll discuss that further another time, right now we must decide the best form of action to take now that we know the pattern the thief is taking." Une said.
"I have reason to believe that the thief will strike at the Dmtrio Donvitz Museum of Ancient Artifacts and Art. I imagine they'll attempt to embezzle the Cuff of Freya sometime soon. I am not sure when, but whoever it is will try to steal it if he is indeed imitating the thefts done by the thief Shinigami." I said.
"Yes, and you think that we should place officers around the perimeter?"
"No, it's my case. I'll go in impersonated as a guard, and when the thief decides to steal it, I'll be there." I said.
"Are you sure, Yuy? It might be easier to send in assistance." Une said looking at me inquisitively.
"Yes, I am sure. I am more than enough for this case. Also I think that the sight of so many cops will keep the thief away instead of luring him in."
"Very well then. I'll have Noin contact the museum so they can have a uniform ready for you. You are dismissed, good work Yuy." I nodded and left.
That night when I got to the museum, I went to the head office to get the uniform assigned to me. After I changed into the uniform. I went straight to where the artifact was being held. It was still there. I wandered around until night came. After snooping around the "breathtaking" works of a local artist, I began making my way back to where the artifact was being held. Until I heard a small plop sound. I ran toward the sound. There looking at one of the many sculptures of the Viking gods, was a man, more or less he looked around 17, wearing a skin tight black outfit, wearing a black side pack, and he had a very long braid. At first I thought it was a girl, but he had a slight masculinity, that was the only thing about him that helped me notice he was male.
"Who are you?!" I shouted and he ignored me. So I tried again, this time taking out my gun. "I asked you a question!"
"Hm?" he said turning to me like he barely noticed me.
"Answer the question!" I commanded.
"You're the first one to point your gun at me." he said smirking.
"I as-" but was cut off.
"I know you asked me a question. I could tell you because you'll be dead, but I don't wanna ruin the fun of having every single one of you government lap dogs oblivious to who I am. Not even the ones who'll be dead anyway." He said arrogantly. I pulled back the hammer of the gun.
"Answer me now!" I stated sternly.
"Serious, huh? Well maybe I'll tell you, but only because your cute." that threw me off for a second. Cute? But I remained composed, no way in hell is some thief gonna catch me off guard.
"Well?"
"I'm Shinigami, gorgeous." He said flirtatiously with a very cocky grin.
"Shinigami's dead." but then he raised a finger and waved it back and fourth.
"Tsk tsk tsk. No one's really dead as long as they're remembered. I'm just makin' him more alive by remindin' everyone."
"I see, so he did pick up a student before he was captured."
"You got it handsome." he said and winked at me. "See you've done your research, so I'm guessin' you don't really work in this museum do ya'?"
"Not that it's really any concern of yours, but no, I'm actually a detective assigned to capture you, and I'm going to turn you in right now!" I said and stepped closer to him.
"I don't think so." he said and I stopped.
"And why do you say that?" I asked glaring at him.
"Cause you'll have to catch me Angel Cakes!" He said blowing me a kiss and running toward the artifact's case. No wonder he was wearing such skimpy outfit! He has very little clothes to get in his way. I shot at his feet throwing him off balance. "You could have killed me!" he yelled once he composed himself.
"If I wanted to do that I would have done so a while ago." I said.
"Really?" he said obviously not believing that.
"Now let's make this easy and put your hands behind your back."
"No way, Mr. Hotty! You just want me in handcuffs to get in my pants don't ya'?" he said looking at me with half slit eyes and a grin. Which really was getting me a little flustered. "Well two can play kinky Handsome." he said with a devilish leer and from his belt he drew out a whip.
"What are you? Catwoman?" I said coldly.
"Geesh, Hotty, even when you're joking your serious! But I take that joke as a come on. Catwoman's sexy. Do you think I'm sexy, Mr. Officer?" that last statement really got me a tense. I can't believe this leather-clad, long haired, alluring, thief was getting to me! Wait…did I just say he was alluring? I am going to kill him!
"What's the matter good-looking'? A little hot under the collar, or is it the pant?" he said eyeing me below the belt. He was really pissing me off! Partially because he was pissing me off!
"Just turn yourself in so we can make this easy!" I said becoming tremendously aggravated.
"Ha! Like I'll do that! I'll fight to the end! No way in hell, will I ever turn myself in Sweetheart! All of you 'law-abiding' bozos are just the same. Corrupt and want things handed to them. They always say they're doing good, but in the end would gladly surrender for a hot piece of ass or cash! I will never give any of you pigs the pleasure of catching me!" he then cracked his whip at my leg crossly. It hurt, but only a little. I kept my ground. "Ooh! A tough guy. All the other guards would have been cryin' by now! I'm really startin to like you Blue Eyes, to bad you're a cop. I would have really liked bein' with you, but you are; and quite frankly you're becoming a real bother, despite how sexy that uniform looks on you. I'm sorry to say, but I'm gonna have to kill you."
He said dropping his whip and quickly pulling out a combat knife and lunged at me. I dogged it and grabbed his arm and tossed him against the wall. He crashed against the wall, but quickly regained himself and tackled me to the ground and attempted to stab me, but and grabbed his arm and used my knee to roll him off of me. He used one of his hands to lung himself off the ground to keep himself from landing on his neck. He then landed in a feline way and stared at me hungrily. He then pounced and attempted to stab me, but I ducked and grabbed his leg and push my head at his stomach. Knocking his air out. He collapsed into my arms, but recuperated quickly and tried to stab my back, fortunately I was expecting that and put him into a headlock, which he managed to get out of. He was tired, I was tired. We stood across from each other, staring each other down and panting. A part of me was enjoying this, but another part of me was becoming extremely angry.
"That's a disappointment that you went to such hostility, I was gonna let you live." I said getting ready to shoot.
"Really? That's so sweet handsome, but-" Then all of a sudden the alarms resounded. Evidently, the security guard watching the monitors finally woke up and saw our little fight. "Shit! Looks like you'll actually live handsome." he quickly grabbed me and kissed me heatedly. I was in so much shock, but the electricity that had shot through my body overcame it. "Bye Gorgeous!" he said.
When he was just about to turn away, I clutched his arm and whispered into his ear. "I'm not gonna describe you to the officials. You're my case, and I'm not about to let somebody else catch you." I kissed him fiercely, leaving him breathless. He nodded blankly, and quickly turned and ran to a rope which I hadn't seen and climbed with such speed and skill that as quickly as he climbed on he was gone. "I will catch you." I whispered to myself. "I will make sure of it. No one will have you."
