I own none of the following characters until otherwise noted in the disclaimer. I do however claim the plot, as I do consider it fairly original….at least in my opinion.

I came up with this idea last night, and I thought it would be interesting to see how it played out. Gomen for this chapter being short, but it is a teaser to see if you like the idea. If you do, let me know and I'll be glad to continue!

"Heero…oh Heero….we have a mission waiting for us…" Duo walked through the kitchen of Quatre's mansion.

"Mission accepted," came the bland reply, as Heero walked by.

"But you don't even know what it is yet!"

"It's a mission. I accept all missions. Therefore, I will accept the mission regardless."

"Geez. I didn't realize how far your life had gone down the tubes. But, hopefully this mission will remedy that." Duo grinned.

"Why do I not like where this is going?"

"Too bad, you already accepted." Duo grabbed Heero's arm and dragged him out to one of Quatre's many cars. "Now get in and that's an order."

Grumbling just loudly enough for Duo to hear, Heero climbed into the passenger's seat

Duo hopped in the driver's seat and took off.

"Now…exactly what is this mission?"

Duo grinned. "Top secret. All I can tell you is we're, well…you actually, supposed to meet a girl at the station. She's coming in around noon."

"A girl? What does a girl have to do with us?" Heero then launched into a tirade about how girls should not be gundam pilots.

"Woah! Time out buddy. You sound too much like Wufei."

"Speaking of which, he won't be too happy about a girl in the house. You know what problems that will cause."

"I have a feeling she'll be able to take care of herself."

Heero raised his eyebrow, looking at his friend curiously. He was beginning to get just the tiniest bit anxious about this mission.

Finally reaching the station, Heero and Duo climbed out of the car and went inside the building to wait…and wait some more. Heero was bored without his laptop and eventually got tired of yanking Duo away from the bright colored display of travel brochures. However, soon the gods took pity on the poor young man and the clock struck noon.

Dragging Heero out to the train platform, Duo kept his eyes peeled for anybody that might resemble the girl they were looking for. After a few minutes, he spied a rather tall young lady looking around. Once again dragging poor Heero behind, while ignoring his protests, Duo made his way over to the girl.

"Looks like you lost something. Can I be of help?" he asked politely.

The girl ran her slender fingers through her chocolate colored hair. "Actually, I could use some help, but not because I lost something. I'm looking for somebody."

"Oh?"

She nodded. "You wouldn't happen to know a Heero Yuy would you?"

"I'm Heero Yuy," came the flat voice.

With a smile that reached up into her green eyes, she held out her hand. "My name's Lita Kino. I'm your mail order bride."
