"Usagi!" Konoe bawled out, "Where is that girl? Why is it every time there's an assignment, she's never around?" he said annoyed that his best employee is nowhere to be found.

"I swear that if you don't show your kawaii little face here within five minutes. I'm going to take away your salary for the next three month, not to mention all of your hidden stash of sweets in your office," The boss threatened as the bunny finally came out of her hiding place with an unhappy pout on her face.

"It's not like being a Shinimegami is the highest paid job here in the underworld," the young girl muttered under her breath.

"What did you say?" Konoe asked, knowing perfectly well what she was complaining about. The Shinigamis are the highest ranking employees in the underworld. They are allowed to travel between the land of the living and dead, a privilege only they have. Their job was to bring back souls who were suppose to be in the underworld, but lingers in the land of living for some unknown reason. They were also the lowest paid employees in the underworld, a fact that irritates Usagi everyday, when she had to pay for her food bills.

"There's a new assignment for you," Konoe said as he looked at the documents in front of him.

"Another one? But I just got back from the Yui girl mission. I need sometime to relax, and catch my beauty sleep," the Shinimegami whined at her boss.

"I know that you just got back, but this is a very important and delicate situation. And you are our best Shinigami. If you take it, I'll give you the raise that you've always want it, and I'll pay for your food for two weeks once you get back. How does that grab you?" Everyone knows that Usagi has a bottomless pit for a stomach, and that the Shinimegami's food bills for one week is enough to buy a limo. So it's no small deal for Konoe to offer to pay for her bills for two whole weeks.

"You got yourself a deal. But tell me boss, what's so special about this mission?" Usagi asked as she already planned for her feast that Konoe would have to pay of, once she gets back.

"Well, you see," Konoe broke off. Shifting uncomfortable under Usagi's questioning stare. "Since the five targets are all men, and you are the best and only Shinimegami, so naturally you get this assignment, because it's too difficult for the others," he finished, flinching a little. Even though he was the boss, Usagi is the most powerful out of all the Shinigamis, even though she hasn't realized, and it is not pretty to upset her.

"What?!?! Five men?!?!" The screech could be heard through out the entire underworld. Everyone covered their ears and prayed that nothing will be destroyed this time.

It was common knowledge to everyone that the Shinimegami have a strong dislike (bordering hatred) for the other sex. No one knows why, except for the Shinimegai herself and Konoe, so the others just assumed that it had something to do with her life before she died. For that same unknown reason, is why during the one thousand years that she had been working as a Shinimegami, she was never assigned any mission that involved a man.

Flames danced around the Shinimegami's body, threatening to explode at a single wrong word. Konoe looked up from his position under his desk. "Usagi please calm down!"

"Calm down? How do you expect me to calm down when you just gave me a mission of five guys!" Her words were accompanied by a fire ball, that knocked off the computer on the desk.

"If you take the mission, I'll promise you that you'll never get any other assignments involving men, and I'll pay for all of your bills for the rest of the year!" Konoe begged. In his opinion, it was better to lose his wallet, then his life (even though as the head of the Shinigamis he can't be killed, because he's already dead).

The flames slowly disappeared from Usagi's body, as she sat down calmly in the chair in front of Konoe's desk. "Fine, but only because you're going to pay for everything." She said grumpily, still angry, but it was worth it for a raise and having someone else pay for the bills for a change.

Carefully getting up, Konoe looked around for any signs of damage, and sighed when he saw that it was only his computer that tasted the Shinimegami's wrath. Last time, his own office was blasted into a pile of rubbles by a single lightening bolt.

"Here are the information that you'll need. This time the targets are the five gundam pilots," Konoe held up a hand to stop Usagi's question, "I know that in the past, they have done us a great favor by sending so many souls to the underworld. But this upset the balance between the living and the dead. So now the Earl is demanding their souls to make up for this unbalance. Except for a small complication. Their time on Earth is not suppose to end yet, that's where you're going to come in. You're going to go and protect them from any 'accidents' that the Earl planned to end their life. It's not your usual mission, but a little difference is good sometimes. Spices up your life up a little don't you think?" Konoe immediately shut up when he saw the unamused look Usagi gave him. "Ahum, anyway, here's their information. I've taken the liberty to enroll you into the Sanq Kingdom Academy, where you will be going to school with them."

"Oh great, this just gets better and better," the Shinimegami said to herself sarcastically at the thought of going back to high school again.

"If you don't have any questions, you may leave now," Konoe said as he dismissed the girl.

*In the land of living*

"Come on you guys. We finally have peace now, so why don't we enjoy it while we have the chance?" a hyper, bouncing Duo said as he pulled Wufei and Hiiro up to the carnival entrance. Quatra and Trowa quietly followed, while counting off the seconds until either Wufei or Hiiro would loose it and threaten the braided boy.

"Maxwell, let me go! I am not going to a weak carnival! I swear upon Nataku, that when I get back to my katana, you can kiss your stupid braid goodbye!" the Chinese boy threatened as he struggled to get away from Duo.

"Hun," Hiiro agreed from the other side. If Duo hadn't blackmailed him with setting him up with Relena, he would have shot the braided baka a million times by now.

"Yeah, yeah I know, but you guys have to loosen up a little. Don't you think so Q-man?" Duo asked, after living together with the two, it was no wonder that he's not affected by the consent death threats.

"I agree with you Duo," Quatra chuckled a little, until Hiiro directed the death glare at the Arabian.

Unknown to them, in the sky, a figure of a girl floated in a bubble, making her invisible from the five pilots. So these boys are my mission, this shouldn't be too difficult. Usagi thought to herself as she opened her large bat like black wings and flew away into an alleyway to transform into a normal sixteen years old girl, before she followed the five into the carnival.

AN: I wonder how Usagi is going to meet the five pilots in the carnival? Hehe, the possibilities are endless.
