DISCLAIMER: We all already know that I don't own Gundam Wing, so I'll just take this time to tell you that to many apple seeds are bad for you. One man who ate a whole cupfull of them actually died! O.o
Chapter 5: Teddy Ends it All!
Since that...that...that girl had driven Heero mad, time proceeded to pass by slowly. Wufei and Heero had disobeyed the orders of their command and contacted home base. They risked certain death through enemy detection just so they could ask for re-enforcements! Home base was not impressed. Ten minutes later they sent them a package, via shooting star of course, with a whole heap of weapons and a notice saying:
To 'Heero' and 'Wufei',
Do not contact us again! He are some weapons so you can handle her yourselves! Quite frankly, Heero, we are suprised at you! And Wufei, who'd have thought that you couldn't even handle a wittle girl?
Once again, stay out of contact!
Loves and cackles, your friendly scientists from above.
Wufie growled deeply at the note in his hand. 'A wittle girl." Those last three words looped and echoed in his mind. 'A wittle girl!' He could just imagine the staff back home, all huddled around the computer screen, laughing at him! The notice scrunched together tightly in Wufie's hard pressed hand as he continued to growl at these images.
"Don't let it get to you," Heero told him, "They're all just a bunch of geeks who spend all of their time bunched up around a computer base anyway. They're weaker then Relena at their best."
Wufei sighed. "Fine." Chang allowed his arms to relax. Heero's comment had made him feel slightly better. Slightly.
Quatre and Trowa were in Quatre's room playing tea-parties again, with Trowa all but tied to the chair.
"Would you like some more tea, Lady Trowa?" Quatre asked. "How about you, Mr. Jingles?"
Trowa said nothing. The bear said nothing. Trowa looked over at the poor, tattered teddy-bear and thought, 'I know what you mean, man. I know what you mean.'
Duo was in his room, rummaging around, looking for his diary. When he finally found it, he opened it up and a narrow slip of paper swept out towards the floor. Frowning curiously, he bent over to pick the paper up and began to read;
Dear Duo,
Nice hand-writing! I think it's really sweet that you think that I'm cute!
Duo paused as his face went bright red! She read his diary! His own, personal diary! Fuming, Duo continued...
But that's ok, I think that you're kinda cute too. And I love your braid! But don't expect any mercy. I came all the way here so that I could mess up your lives and I'm not going back without results! Anyhoo... I was bored so I twisted and warped your other colleagues' names around, and I thought you might like the results. There are a few for Trowa and Quatre, but much more for Heero and Wufei! Feel free to use them as much as you can and enjoy!
Love, Hiki.
Duo squinted as he read the following names on the list. His anger faded almost straight away! And a slow, mischevious smile crept across his facial features as his eyes widened and began to sparkle just a little too much!
(Uh-oh!)...
Hiki grinned maniacly, watching this footage as it transmitted from the hallway camera outside Duo's doorway and tothe media window on her screen. It was sealed! Duo Maxwell had now officially become her pawn...
The next two days went something like this...
Quatre passing Duo in the hallway...
"Hi Duo!"
"Hi Q-ball!" Duo chirped and walked away.
"Huh?" Quatre paused mid-stride.
Trowa playing Duo at chess...
"You know, Truffles, this game is really boring."
Trowa raised and eyebrow at Duo inquisitively.
"What?" Duo responded. "I said, 'Trowa the game is really boring.'"
Trowa grunted in disbelief.
Duo waiting outside the bathroom door for Heero to finish using the shower...
BANG-BANG-BANG! "Heeeeee-rooo!" he whined, "Hurry-up in there! My hair is extra-sensitive and it hasn't been washed for a whole day, Heero! A whole enitre day!"
"Get over it!" came the muffled reply.
"He's been in there for twenty whole minutes!" Duo grumbled to himself, leaning his back against the doorway, "Stupid She-ro!"
Suddenly the door flung open to reveal an angry Heero, dripping wet, with a vanilla towel wrapped tightly around his waste.
"What did you call me?"
Duo contemplated this for a second. "Umm, I said stupid 'Heero'?" Duo smiled weakly. But the perfect soldier didn't buy it.
"No, you didn't, Maxwell. You lie!"
And with that, Heero single-handedly gripped Duo's throat in a neckbrace and headed for the stairs. He then stopped, thought better of it, and headed back to the bathroom to give Duo and his hair an 'extra-sensitive' whirlie.
Duo and Wufei training in arm to arm combat...
"Maxwell, give it up!" Thwap! "You know you can't beat me!" Chang yelled and blocked another punch.
"Oh yeah?" Woosh! "Try this on for size!" Duck! Duo's leg flung out. Boosh!
"Pathetic!" Chang caught it and barrel rolled him through the air.
Duo landed. Thump! "Oow!" He got up and rubbed his bruised side. "That hurt!"
"It was supposed to, weakling!" Wufie smirked sliding into a fighting position, "Ha! Relena could beat you with her eyes closed!"
"Oh yeah?" Duo slid into a fighting position himself, "Bring it on, Whoopie!"
Chang paused for a moment as what Duo had just said sunk in. His face went from mild suprise to angry and vengent!
"Duo," Chang spoke slowly, forcing himself to stay calm, "Did you just call me a girl's name?"
Duo looked thoughtful for a moment and scratched the back of his neck. "Oh, that's a girl's name too? Heh. I was thinking Whoopie as in whoopie cushion!"
"Good!" Chang's voice was thick with sattire as he stalked towards him. "Then you only half get to die."
Duo started to back up. "Hey! Chang! Buddy! Old pal! You can't just beat up your ol' teammate over a little old name!"
"Oh I'm not just beating you up, Duo. This is training. Remember?"
Poor Duo. All he could do was to gulp and nod his head...
Needless to say, that little bit of 'training' was of no lesson to Duo. And near the end of the weekday week, Duo's little 'connotations' were getting so frequent that A) Duo had so many bruises on him that he was beggining to look like a dalmation and B) Duo's bunk-mates had had enough...
Quatre, Trowa and Heero were sitting down at the breakfast table. Quatre was giggling to himself and sipping tea. Trowa was watching him with great concern and praying that his giggling didn't mean another tea-party. And Heero was polishing his gun. Just then -
"AAAARRRRGGGHH!!!"All heads flung towards upstairs. Pound, pound, pound! "Maxwell! You coward! Open this door!"
"Run and hide, Wufie! Remember, run and hide!"
Thump! "Agh! My foot! Grrrrrrrrr!"
The other three soldiers sighed as Wufie appeared downstairs. Heero just plainly looked at him.
"Don't tell me, Duo's name calling again?"
"Yes," said Wufie, "And this time he called me something that was a...'Wookiee!'"
Trowa's eyebrow raised. "What's a 'Wookiee'?"
Heero spoke. "It's a big, hairy, fictional alien creature that came from an ancient earth movie called 'Star Wars'."
All wearing thoughtful expressions, everyone looked toward Heero.
"What? The scientists had a large data-base when I was in training. And I did occasionally get some free time."
"So you could sit and watch video clips? Huh?"
Heero blushed. "No. They were for...educational purposes."
Trowa scoffed. "Pfft! Whatever."
Frowning, Heero turned his attention back to Wufei. "If you didn't know what it was, why'd you get so angry about it in the first place?"
Wufei was still obviously irritated as he pulled a chair up toward them and saddled it. "Because. He's been calling us names all week!"
"Yeah!" said Quatre, "He called me a 'Q-Ball!'"
"That's nothing!" piped Trowa, "He called me Truffles!"
Heero just had to smile at that.
"Yeah?" Wufie said, "He called me Woolie, and Woof-woof," he clenched his fist, "grrrr, and Wormie!" gritted his teeth, "and Whirlie!" started to growl...
"Wait!" Heero interrupted before Chang could get any madder, "He called me names too! About more than thirty, in fact..."
"Ten " Said Quatre.
"Fifteen" Stated Trowa.
"Twenty" Wufei grunted.
"Huh!" scoffed Heero, clearly unimpressed, "I counted at least thirty five!"
A moment of silence passed over the table as everyone thought this over.
Finally, Wufei broke it.
"Yes, but where's he been getting all of them? I mean, the names he's been calling me are actually pretty good. They're not too lame, if you know what I'm getting at."
"Same here."
"Me too."
"Hn."
More silence. Then Heero slowly began to speak.
"It's almost as if they were...organised."
"Yeah," Wufei said, "like he got 'em off the web, or something."
Trowa smiled. "We could take his internet connections away."
"Now I know he won't like that," laughed Heero.
Quatre looked serious, though. He slowly shook his head. "I'm not so sure that that's where he's been getting them all."
Everyone stopped to look up at Quatre.
"What do you mean?" asked Heero.
"Well, I noticed twice the other day that when he had any trouble calling me names he would pull out a long printed list. Now, I know that that doesn't say he didn't get them off of the internet, but..."
"But what, Quatre?"
"Well, when I read some of the words through the paper, I'm pretty sure that I saw the words 'love Hiki'."
Heero's eyes flung wide open! "That's her!"
"You don't think that she gave it to him, do you?"
"Well the girl drove me insane in just five days and then sold you all a 'portable padded room' to put me in. And at the same time made a million bucks off of Quatre over here!"
"Hmm," Quatre pondered aloud, "well I suppose it is possible."
"Well guys," Heero started getting up, "I say we all go up stairs and find out!" Everyone nodded and headed straight up to Heero's room.
Knock-Knock-Knock! "Who is it?"
"It's us, Duo, now open up!"
"What?! All of you? Oh come on,Heero! I haven't even called you any names yet today!"
"Duo we know about the list and we know it was from Hiki."
"What? Who's Hiki?"
Chang spoke up. "You know, 'Hiki', that crazy girl with the wings."
There was a pause as Mr. I-Don't-Tell-A-Lie thought about this.
"I only found the piece of paper. I didn't see no Hiki."
"Maxwell, if you don't open this door by the count of ten, I'm going to cut your braid while you're asleep!"
Duo sighed. "Fine."
There was a quick rattling from the door knob as Duo unlocked the door and then opened it.
"Here," he said handing them the slip of paper, "I was nearly out of names at any rate."
Heero took the paper and turned around to skim over it while Wufei took the chance to smack Duo in the head.
"Oooowww!" Duo whined as he rubbed his sore cranium. "What'd you go and do that for?"
"For letting her use you!"
"Yeah, Duo," Heero turned back to him, "You assisted the enemy here!"
"But she's just a little girl!" Duo winged.
Heero frowned, "She's not that little and frankly, I don't care just how much I shouldn't be getting emotional; she is starting to get on my nerves!"
"Well, what are we going to do about her?" Trowa asked.
"Well, she's probably camping out somewhere near here. I say that we go out and we kill her!"
"But she's probably invincible!" Wufie piped up, "And she has that forcefield power thing too."
"Then we'll take the Gundams!" said Heero.
"Wait!" Quatre inquired, "Do we really want go out and kill off some poor, deranged and deluded girl here?"
Heero thought about this for a second. "It's for the sake of the mission," he chirped.
"Yeah! The mission," cheered Wufei.
"For the mission!" Trowa agreed.
"Charge!"
"Oooo! I had better go with them!" Quatre worried aloud and began to follow. He turned quickly back to Duo. "Duo, someone needs to watch the house, so you better stay here."
"Fine, then. Whatever." Duo shrugged and went back to whatever he was doing. He didn't really want to go kill Hiki, anyway. He actually thought that some of her jokes were quite funny!
Oh well, Duo thought as he grasped the 'Game Station' controls back firmly in his hands, they're probably just wasting they're time now, anyways.
Hiki crept silently up to the house. Cameras watching from inside the house had told her that all of the the pilots had left except one. And to go battle her! HA!She was almost tempted to go back there and show them just how stupidly they were acting. Still, she had had a beautiful idea and this idea deserved to be turned into a fantastic prank. On...bum, bum, bum...Quatre! That's who!
Gasp! I know what you're thinking! You're thinking either A) Not Quatre! The guy's cute, sweet and a total wimp! Or B) We know what you're up to – the title of this chapter gave it all away! Hmmmph! Well, good for you! Know-it-alls! I go to all the trouble of thinking up my beautiful (snicker!), majestic (cackle!) wonderful (oh no, I sound like Treize!), FULL ON GREATEST PLAN AND YOU ALL JUST SIT THERE, CRITISISING AND GOING "HAHA, WE'RE SO SMART 'COS WE FIGURED IT ALLLLL OUT"!! WELLI'LL SHOW YOU!!!! (Laughs maniacly) I'LL SHOW YOU ALL!!! JUST WAIT AND SEE!! 'COS AS LONG AS I COULD JUST SIT HERE, WRITING AWAY, and do... nothing...through the screen...oh man! Well, don't give me your address or anything during reviews, 'cos I'm bad! Yeah! Anyway, for all those good, kindly, dearly, sweet souls out there who haven't figured out yet what's going on, on with the story...
Hiki snuck slowly around the house until she spotted her prize...an open window! Something had told Hiki that she had be quiet about this, as (however cute), there was still a Gundam pilot in the house. See, for her special plan to work, there had to be no witnesses at all cost! But she just couldn't bring herself to kill Duo. Not while he was cute! And not while there was still a (growingly) crazy, obsessed author ready to strike at her throat at any given moment. Oh no! This had to be done with stealth or not at all! Deciding this time not to use her noisy wings, she instead used her forcefield abilities to levititate herself and her bag up to the window and slip in.
She silently placed her feet on the ground and proceeded to walk around, or rather invade the privacy of Wufei's room! Thinking of what a nut job Wufie was, she took the supreme liberty of re-organising and re-decorating his stuff! The ultimate-tea-freak-of-justice would be furious! Satisfied with having organised it to feminine officialty, she then gave a quick smirk as she tucked his diary away for her bed-time reading. Taking out a calling card and leaving it there, she turned around, gently opened and closed the door, and padded down to Quatre's room where the evil fun (mwah-ha-ha-ha-ha) would begin!...(Cackle, splutter, cough!)
Hiki closed the door with a malicious grin and eyed Quatre's dear, sweet teddy bear. Mr. Jingles sat silent and still upon the pillows, although if you had been there you could have sworn you could see it shiver, which made the homocidal Hiki smile even more! "He-hehehehe!" she cackled quietly, allowing the inanimate teddy bear to 'cower fearfully in dread. Pulling out some objects, and almost sure the teddy bear was watching, she proceeded to place before it some:
Rope;
a pen;
some paper;
and a razor sharp axe!
She wouldn't need the axe but it added to the effect! She picked up the rope and turned, grinning evilly, to face the cute, doomed, and adorable teddy bear. "Now, now, my precious," she cooned, "it'll all be over soon! He-he!"
It was noon by the time that Trowa, Wufei, Heero and Quatre came tiredly trudging through the door.
"Well, I don't know about you guys," stated Quatre, "but I'm beat!"
"Yeah, me too!" yawned Trowa.
They all started heading up the stairs.
"I just can't believe we didn't find anything," Wufei grumbled.
"Me too." Heero sounded just as disappointed. "We'll get her next time, though."
"Yeah," Wufei agreed as he disappeared into his room, "next time!"
Duo's door opened to reveal a bouncing Duo, wide awake and full of his usual energy. "Hiya, guys!" he practically sang, "so how did the so called 'mission' go?"
"Heero opened his mouth and began to reply, when...
"MAXWELL!"
Everyone in the hallway jumped with suprise and turned to see Wufei flinging out of his room.
"You baka! You couldn't even stay and gaurd the house this one time, could you?"
Somehow knowing where this was all going, Heero just looked at him quizzical. "What?"
"GARRGH! My room!" He flung a hand in through the doorway, "Just look at my room! That woman rearranged it!"
At their own pace, everyone walked, rushed and strode over to Wufei's room and looked inside. Sure enough, everything was 'daintilly' redecorated. From the neatly stacked gadgets and cds to a make-shift crayon flowered feature wall. The chinese candles in the corner were now replaced with pink, frilly, scented ones. The samurai swords were now draped with spakly beads and pink ribbons and there was a fresh vanilla air-freshner smell that now permeated the room. In his horror, Wufei went to go check the underwear drawer but Duo, in a freak moment of wisdom saw him set out and stopped him.
"Uh.. Chang, buddy, are you sure it was her?"
Chang paused midstride and spun around to face him on his heel. "Maxwell, who the #hay# (pg language) else could it be?! You baka! This is all your fault!"
Duo's lips just curled up in a shameful 'o'. Trowa picked this particular 'tranquil' moment to speak up.
"Um, I'm gonna go check my room."
"Me too," remarked Heero.
"Me as well," agreed Quatre and everyone seperated and ran off. Wufei still stood there, glaring at Duo with a deathlock. Duo squirmed.
"Well don't blame me.."
"I blame you!"
Suddenly...
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO (takes breath) -OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Is that Quatre?"
"Yeah."
Everyone ran madly over to Quatre's room to check it out. What they found when they got there was, well, um, strange. There was Quatre, bawling with tears, hugging, no wait, wrenching his beloved teddy bear. The teddy bear had a rope around it's neck leading up to and attached to the fan. Quatre held a tear-stained, red-inked letter in his left hand. Trowa walked forward and knelt beside him to try and comfort the tear-drawn pilot, while Duo walked forward, pulled the crumpled note away, opened it up and began to read aloud...
Dear Quatre,
Let me just start by saying first that you were, and still are, the best friend that a bear could ask for. I love you so much. Remember that time when we were at that place, and we did that thing, and you said that word, and then we laughed? Those are the times that you have got to remember, Quatre. You see, for a while now I've been keeping a sort of secret from you. I have long developed 'Dyslencerturpintine', which is a cancerous, brain-sucking, parasite alien tumor thing. It is unfortunately life terminating and because of this I have hung myself, unable to live much longer with the knowledge that I'll have to leave you. Please don't blame yoursef, Quatre, as there was no way you could have known that this was coming. Keep in mind that I am happier this way! I pray that you will forgive me and you have my best hopes for the future! I love you, Quatre, and remember, 'We are all part of the great circle of life'. Or some other sentimental trash like that. Here I go now! See ya!
Love, teddy.
"A suicide note from...'teddy'?" Heero said that last part really slow.
Wufei scoffed. "Well, who would believe that?"
"WHHHHYYYYYY" Quatre wailed with Trowa still patting his back. "He was s-s-so ," Quatre hiccupped, "young" Quatre continued to wail.
"I stand corrected."
When Duo turned around to face Heero and Wufei they could see that he'd started to panic! "You guys! This is really, really bad!"
Quatre was whispering hysterically in the background. "Why didn't he just t-t-tell m-me?! This is all my fault! How could I not have known?!"
Chang scoffed and sarcastically raised an eyebrow. "What? Are you going to start crying over that stuffed toy, too?"
"Pleeasse don't leave me!"
"No," Duo gritted his teeth, "but Quatre really loves that bear."
"Come back, Teddikens! Please! Come back!"
"So what? We'll just tell him it isn't real," Heero said plainly.
"Take me with you, Teddy! Take me with you!"
"Yeah, think that will work? Remember what happened last time we tried to to do that? Remember the base-ball incident? Huh?"
Chang's, Heero's and Trowa's eyes shot wide open upon hearing the memory of that one! They all shuddered! Brrrr! The base-ball incident!
"WAA-HA-HA-HAH"
"Guys, he's right!" said Trowa still patting Quatre's back, "We're in some serious doop!"
Wufei stormed over to Quatre. "Here," he grumbled, "let me try something." Quatre was still crying and holding his teddy when Wufei got there and snatched it from his hands. He held the bear to his ear and jiggled it around briefly. "What's that teddy? You said you were only joking?" Wufei jiggled it around a bit more, "Ok, I'll tell him." Wufei looked down at Quatre. "Teddy says to tell you that it was all just a cruel and senseless joke, and that he isn't dead." The teddy-whispering-Wufei reminisced with the teddy a bit more, "He says to tell you that... you've been... punked!" Everyone stood there, watching, praying as Quatre silently thought this over, and they hoped to all that was goodness that his child-like brain would register what they were saying. Finally, Quatre spoke.
"Wufie!" he gasped at him, hurt, in shock and fury and snatched the poor, deceased teddy back! "How could you? I thought you were my friend! How could you make fun of poor Mr. Jingles d-d-death?" And with that, Quatre once again began to wail.
Wufie sighed heavily. "Well, I tried."
Heero growled and rubbed his brow. "Everyone, outside in the hallway, now! We all need to discuss this."
"Ok."
"Alright."
"Fine." Trowa sighed and reluctantly left Quatre's side. Everyone followed Heero outside.
"You guys," Heero started fearfully, "I think that we may have to end up telling him... the truth!"
"But just think of what we'll have to go through!" Duo exclaimed. "You all know what happens everytime someone tells him that his teddy isn't real! Why else do you think we all let him drag it along side to missions and stuff?!"
"We could just let him cry for a few days?" Wufei suggested, "Look at him. I think he's even started to calm down. He'll get over it."
They all stopped and peered back through the doorway at Quatre. The small, blond fifteen year old was now silently cradling his teddy, giving a few sniffs before... "WAAHAHAHAHAAAA!Teddy, this will always be a scar on my heart and I'll cry for months and I'll never forget youuuuuu!"
"Well there goes that theory!" Heero, with sarcasistic remorse, remarked.
Wufei clenched his fists. "This is all her fault!"
Hiki had snuck back into the house and was now approaching Heero, coming up from the stairs.
"Yes! Me again!" she practically sang.
"Ah!" Heero jumped, but quickly reagained his composure.
"You!" he stated.
"You!" Wufei growled.
"Um, yeah, you!" Duo tried to growl.
"Why?" Trowa asked.
"Why else," she smiled as she strutted into the room, "because it was funny! And because I can! Ahh," she sighed, "I just love basking in the marvel of my incredeous plan!"
"It. Wasn't. Funny!" Wufie growled all the more, "Do you even realise just what you have done? Now we're the poor suckers who'll have to go back there and straighten the poor guy out!"
Suddenly, Duo realised something. "Hey, you guys, why don't we just go and tell Quatre that it was Hiki who actually did it? He knows she's been pulling pranks!"
Everybody mentally slapped their heads. Duh! Of course!
"Yeah!" Wufei now looked relived and started to smile, "And if he still thinks the bear's dead 'cos she hung him anyway, we could have Heero do an autopsy, say that the way she hung him wasn't lethal, and that she just knocked him out for a while with some sleeping pills!"
Heero nodded. "Sounds like a plan!" Leaving Hiki behind, yelling after them, shocked and upset that they might foil her plan, the four pilots all turned on their heels and headed back into Quatre's room.
"Stop right there!" came a loud, anonymous voice from nowhere. The Gundam boys and Hiki all stopped and looked up toward the ceiling in confusion.
"And just who are you?" Duo asked.
"I AM THE AUTHOR! AND I HAVE SPENT FAR, FAR TOO MUCH TIME ON THIS CHAPTER TO HAVE ALL YOU BOYS RUIN IT NOW!"
"But why would anyone even write such horrible things?" Wufei wanted to know.
"BECAUSE IT'S FUN! BECAUSE I WANT TO! AND FOR REVIEWS! (Hint-hint!)"
The four remaining pilots started to look really, really scared!
"AND NOW, WITH MY POWERS OF DELETION, I SHALL ERASE ALL MEMORIES UP UNTILL ABOUT A MINUTE OR TWO BEFORE THIS MOMENT! AHAHAHAHA!" the author pushed a button on her keyboard, a bright white light flashed over everthing, and everyone was standing where they were in the hallway about two minutes before. Even Hiki.
"Yes! Me again...whoa!" She said holding her head, "Is anyone else getting major dejavu?"
"Hn," said Heero, "Well, now that you mention it..." Everbody started rubbing their heads absently and trying to remember something that had happened. Wufei was the first to shake it off.
"Nevermind! It doesn't matter! You!" He spoke spitefully, angrily pointing toward Hiki. "You did this! And now we're gonna have to go back in there and tell Quatre that his teddy bear isn't real!"
"I've got a better idea," Duo started, "Why don't we all just tell him that Hiki..."
"FORGET IT!" interrupted the author, and Duo and company forgot.
"Are you psychotic?" asked Trowa.
"Well, I don't like to brag, but..." she trailed off.
Heero stepped forward and, very sternly, stared Hiki down. "Do notcome here again! Because the next time you do, we will all roll out the Gundams and attack you! Do you understand what I am saying? We will try to and find a way to kill you!"
"Alright! I'm leaving already," she started walking away from them. Suddenly, she stopped, headed back to them and smirked. "However, I highly doubt that even your pwescious Gwundams can kill me!" She stalked towards Wufei, "So I'll be back" and kicked him in the shins!
BONK!"OWW!" Hiki yelled and grabbed her freshly stubbed foot. Chang let out a victorious laugh!
"It won't work this time," cackled Chang as he rolled up the leg of his pants, "I've got steel shin gaurds on. See."
"Well, that's a shame," Hiki said and kicked him in the...
"AAAAAARRRRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!" Oooookaaay! That must have really hurt!
"YOU 'BEEEEEP" he called after her angrily as she skipped merrily down the stairs and out the front door. "YOU COLD, HEARTLESS 'BEEEEEP-BEEP!!!' WOMAN!! ONNA!! COME BACK HERE YOU 'BEEEEEEEEEPEDY-BEEP!!!! BEEP-BEEP! BEEEEEE-..."
(Note: For the sake of Quatre and the children, and the unneccessary page space, the next ten lines of censored swearing shall all be skipped out on.)
Needless to say that by the end of ten minutes, everyone's ears were bleeding and Wufei had yelled his face red. Finally, Wufei choked, coughed and splattered for he could yell no more.
"Alright, everyone!" Heero yelled, gathering everyone together, "It looks like we have no choice. We'll just have to tell Quatre that his teddy bear... isn't real! Let's do this!" Breifly they mustered up all their strength and headed back into Quatre's room. "Quatre," he said softly, putting his hand on the wailing fifteen year old's shoulder. "We need to talk."
Oh yeah, the Gundam Wing boys had surely learned the hatred of Hiki that day! 'Cos thanks to her, for 3 long hours, filled with much kicking and punching and screams of denial, them and Quatre had finally had to have that Big-boystalk!
