GundamGirls, the story behind the people. Part three of the S.A.T. (Silver AllianceTrilogy)

Chapter Three... Why you do not drink anything Rika gives you...or...how to knock out a dinosaur

Authors Notes... Firstly I'd like to thank Saberwyn for giving me my first review. I do, however, wish that more people would review me. I even accept flames for they give me input into what the readers think I am doing wrong and they will at least show that some one is reading my story. I feel so unloved with only one review. Secondly I want to clear a few things up. I think everyone should know is that this story is based in Australia, and that the schools mentioned are real school. CGHS is my school and EBHS is my brother's school. Many of the teachers and some students mentioned are also real people. Now, on to the next chapter....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Atalanta, Rika, Aislin, Aurora and Lina met up again at lunch.

"I can't believe you've been alive all this time. How have you kept from going insane?" Aurora questioned.

"At first I traveled a lot. But around 14 years ago I found myself pregnant with Wing's son. I'm certain Syaoran is Wing's; I've checked many times. I just don't know how it's possible." Atalanta revealed.

"You're a mother?" Rika yelped. It was good that they were speaking in lunarian. Memories of the daughter that she lost in the past, Hotaru, played out in her mind.

"Yes, and he starts at Epping Boys today. He's in year nine at the moment and has been in Hong Kong with the Li Clan for the past three years. I was unable to bring him with me while I set up my new life in this particular generation." Atalanta explained.

"Can we meet him?" Aislin questioned.

"I want to meet the heir to the Elysian throne." Lina agreed.

"I was thinking, seeing as it's Friday, you four could come and stay at my place over the weekend. You can meet him then." Atalanta offered.

"PARTY TIME!" Rika exclaimed happily, "I'm making the drinks!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Meanwhile, at EBHS, the pilots were doing their prefect duty. They were greeting a group of new students who had just transferred into year nine.

One of the current year nine students, David Sykes, who was being a guide, brought his new friend over to the pilots.

"Guys, this is Syaoran Cosmos. He's transferred from Hong Kong. Syaoran, these are Heero Yuy, Duo Maxwell, Trowa Barton, Quatre Rabarber Winner, and Wufei Chang. If you ever have any problems, these five are the ones to see." David introduced.

The pilots had to stop themselves from gasping. This Syaoran kid looked like a miniature Heero, right down to the frown on his face.

"Nice to meet you Syaoran. We look forward to seeing you around." Quatre greeted politely, being the first one to recover from the shock.

"Thank you. I've heard good things about this school from my sister. She goes to CGHS." Syaoran explained.

"Ah, a chelephant. (AN: the students from Epping boys have so kindly given the students from Cheltenham girls the nick names pink elephants and chelephants. We've taken great pride in this fact and leaving year 12 students are able to get pink elephants instead of bears for their friends to sign.) What year is she in?" Duo questioned.

"Year 12, same as you." Syaoran replied.

"You'll have to introduce us some time." Trowa smiled.

"She's picking me up this afternoon. If you want, you can meet her then." Syaoran suggested.

"Will do. We'll see you then." Quatre smiled.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That afternoon, after giving the others instructions on how to get to her house, Atalanta headed to Epping Boys. Rika sat in the passenger seat of Atalanta's Toyota Camery. It was a pale gold in colour and very comfortable.

Arriving at the car park, Atalanta pulled in got out, looking for Syaoran. It took only seconds to spot him, as her son always stood out from a crowd. She spotted him and walked over, Rika tagging along.

"You act like you've been here before." Rika commented.

"I have. I came here with Syaoran on his orientation day, and I go to all the drama and music nights here." Atalanta said, just before they reached Syaoran.

"Who are his friends?" Rika whispered.

"Good question. Syaoran, who are your friends?" Atalanta questioned, taking only a cursory glance.

"These five are the former gundam pilots; Heero Yuy, Duo Maxwell, Trowa Barton, Quatre Raberba Winner and Wufei Chang. Guys, this is my sister Atalanta Cosmos." Syaoran introduced, not realizing the effect it would have on his mother.

Looking up at the familiar names, Atalanta got a better look at the pilots and her eyes went wide in realization.

"Neko, tell me I'm dreaming. Tell me that's not my Duo." Rika whimpered in Saturnian.

"We're not dreaming Rika, it's them alright." Atalanta replied, before switching back to English, "It is a pleasure to meet you. I followed your battles during the wars and I was extremely impressed with your skills and the fact that you were willing to sacrifice so much."

"Nice to meet you Atalanta. Syaoran's been telling us a few good things about you." Duo grinned, flirting with her. This behaviour didn't go down well with Rika. Despite the fact that he didn't remember her, she was still very protective of her mate.

"As much as I would love to stay and chat, I'm afraid that we must leave. I have some old friends coming over that I cannot keep waiting." Atalanta smiled, placing a hand on Syaoran's shoulder.

"Perhaps another time then?" Quatre offered, smiling.

"Perhaps. Till then gentlemen." Atalanta smiled gently at them, before the three students left, leaving five unexplainably confused pilots.

"Am I the only one who thought those girls were very familiar?" Trowa questioned.

"It hurt less when they were around." Heero agreed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The drive back home was a silent one, Atalanta and Rika too shocked to talk and Syaoran nervous about his mother's behaviour. Upon arrival at Atalanta's home, she and Rika removed their human guises. Syaoran did likewise. He was a wolf hanyou like his father.

"You're a hanyou too?" he questioned Rika, shocked by her dragon-hanyou form.

"My son, I want you to meet one of the infamous Sennen Hanyou. This is Rika, Queen of Saturn. Goddess of Death. Sailor Kali, and my sister-in-law." Atalanta introduced.

"You're Ryu?" Syaoran was in awe. He'd heard so much about the infamous group his mother had belonged to as a child.

"That's me. You're mum's spoken of me obviously." Rika smiled.

"She's been telling me tales of the sennen hanyou for as long as I can remember." Syaoran confirmed.

"Cool. I'm going to go work on the drinks." Rika grinned, before going off in search of the liquor cabinet.

Half and hour later, the other four girls arrived.

"Greetings, and welcome to my humble abode." Atalanta greeted. She was wearing jeans and a green tank top that looked remarkably like the one Heero tended to wear all the time.

"Nice place," Aislin complimented. "So where's the little prince?"

"He's in his room doing his homework. Come, I'll show you were to put your things. We'll all be sleeping out in the rec room." Atalanta directed the four girls to where they could dump their stuff, before leading them to the backyard, where food, drinks, and music were all set up. Rika was there already, serving up her cocktail specialty.

"Hey guys, come and have a drink." she called them over as Atalanta put the on some Evanescence, accepting the offered glass. Quickly downing the concoction, Atalanta began dancing around the garden, singing along with the music. The other girls gave in to their reservations and followed suit.

"Okaa-san! What are you doing?" Syaoran exclaimed, standing in the doorway, a look of shock plastered across his face.

"I'm getting drunk and dancing like an idiot. What does it look like I'm doing?" Atalanta replied happily, "Now come out here and meet the ladies of the Sennen Hanyou."

Once the introductions were done, an embarrassed Syaoran rapidly retreated to his room.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Unknown to the partying girls, the five pilots actually lived in the house next door and had spotted them. Well, Duo had at least.

"Hey guys, look. It's that Syaoran kid's sister and her friend. It looks like they're having a party." he called out.

"Humph, as long as they don't make enough noise to interrupt my meditation, I don't care." Wufei snorted in disinterest, not having moved from his cross-legged position across the room.

The other pilots quickly lost interest, leaving Heero alone at the window, watching the girls in slight curiosity. Something about Atalanta seemed seriously familiar to him and it was frustrating him that he could not figure out why.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That night, the five overly intoxicated girls collapsed on their futons in front of the large TV in Atalanta's rec-room. Syaoran had wisely gone to bed, so they decided to watch one of Atalanta's various DVD's. They put on the movie Dogma and cracked up over Jay, Silent Bob and all the other characters. (AN: Has anyone seen this movie. I've watched it heaps of times and it still cracks me up. The strange thing is that my mother, who doesn't particularly like that type of movie actually enjoyed it when she watched it. She had a point when she said that under all the swearing and violence the movie made some very valid points.) After watching the movie, all the alcohol they had been drinking finally kicked in and they collapsed, unconscious.

The next day, the girls spent their time catching up on gossip, listening to Atalanta's stories of what she got up to while they were dead. They also told Syaoran of their childhood in the silver millennium and of all the things they got up to then. They even did the typical all girl sleep over thing by doing each other's hair and nails.

Dinner that night was a classic Australian backyard BBQ. Atalanta lit up her wood-fire barbie, cooking steak and sausages. This was served with Greek salad - courtesy of Rika who was born into a Greek family this time - pasta salad, freshly baked bread, potato wedges with sour cream and a variety of drinks. They had just finished laying out the food a commotion form next door caught their attention. Going to the fence, Rika discovered that the pilots lived next door and had been attracted by the scent of food. Alerting Atalanta to this, the neko hanyou grinned and walked over to the fence, before leaping over in a move that Aislin and Trowa taught her in the distant past.

"Greetings gentlemen." she said, laughing at their stunned looks when she landed.

"Hey Atalanta. What's cooking? It smells good." Duo questioned.

"My friends and I are having a BBQ. I'm here to invite you five to join us, we've got plenty of food." Atalanta stated.

"We accept your invitation. Give us a few minutes and we'll be there." Quatre smiled.

"Great. See you there." Atalanta leapt over the fence again.

"You just invited them over, didn't you?" Lina accused.

"Yes. I thought you ladies would like a chance to get to know this side of your mates." Atalanta grinned, as she went about enlarging the table and getting more chairs. The other girls were busy working on the deserts. It was a simple campfire recipe; an apple with the core removed, stuffed with things like sultanas, or mini mars bars, anything sweet. This was wrapped up in tin foil and placed in the dying fire to slowly cook while the rest of the meal was eaten. (AN: This is an actual recipe. It tastes so good when it's finished and is nice and simple for camps.)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A few minutes later the five guys arrived. Heero was dressed in jeans, his trademark green tank top and a pilot's jacket. Duo looked the untouchable modern warrior, in full black, with a red top barely showing. Trowa was wearing jeans and his favourite green turtleneck jumper. Quatre wore jeans, a dark blue jumper and his piloting jacket. Wufei was wearing his trademark outfit.

"Come in, come in. We're all out the back as you well know." Atalanta welcomed.

"Thanks for inviting us." Trowa smiled gently.

"No problem. I wanted you to meet my friends anyway."

"You must be the pilots, we've heard much about you from the squirt here." Aislin smiled, ruffling Syaoran's hair playfully.

"I hope he has been telling you good things." Trowa commented, regarding Aislin in interest. She had the figure of an acrobat and he began to wonder what she'd look like in one of Catherine's costumes. He slapped himself mentally. He was a soldier, he shouldn't be thinking like that.

"Allow me to do the introductions. Gentlemen, these are my old and dear friends. The sarcastic, braided-baka here is Rika Heartilly. The quiet Asian beauty is Aislin Mizuno. The hyperactive blonde is Aurora Terra, often as annoying as Duo is rumoured to be. And finally the martial arts obsessed tomboy is Lina Satome." Atalanta introduced, laughing at the annoyed faces her friends gave her.

"It is nice to meet you all." Quatre smiled, polite as always.

"Ladies, I want you to meet the former gundam pilots. These fine young men are Heero Yuy, Duo Maxwell, Trowa Barton, Quatre Raberba Winner and Wufei Chang." Atalanta finished the introductions.

"Hiya!" Aurora yelled spontaneously, hyper as always.

Everyone served themselves and the meal got underway. Two hours, three courses, and much conversation later, the five boys left for their own home while the girls and Syaoran settled down in the living room. Atalanta sat on the couch, Syaoran curled up against her half asleep. Rika and Aislin were settled in bean bags. Lina and Aurora were in their youkai forms - a anaconda and cheetah respectively - curled up on their futons. As they sat there, sipping their cocktails, Syaoran drowsily asked the question that had been troubling him.

"What shocked you so much about those guys?" he asked the girls.

"They are our reborn mates. It is hard to see them there, knowing that they do not have their memories back." Rika responded with a sigh.

"They're my father and uncles?" Syaoran snapped back to wakefulness in shock.

"Yes. Whenever I've told you about them, I've referred to them by their nicknames. Heero is Wing, Duo is Shin, Quatre is Lupus, Trowa is Leo, Wufei is Shenlong." Atalanta revealed.

"After being apart for over a millennia, it is a bit daunting to see them again, looking as handsome and irresistible as ever." Aislin murmured, staring at her drink, as if it was the most important thing in the world. It was all she could do to keep herself from tears. The others were quiet, all engaged in similar thoughts.

With no prior warning, Aislin suddenly burst out laughing.

"What's so funny Siren?" Rika questioned, curious as to what had caused the drastic mood swing.

"I just remembered the triceratops." Aislin managed to splutter out between giggles. This brought roars of laughter to the rest of the group.

"Huh? What does she mean 'kaa-san?" Syaoran enquired, thoroughly confused.

"Back when we were all fifteen, not long after my birthday, we were drinking one of Rika's concoctions and we all became curious as to how strong it was…

@Flashback@...

Atalanta, Heero, Rika, Duo, Aislin, Trowa, Aurora, Quatre, Lina, Wufei, Akeifa, Otogi, and Malik were all lounging on the soft grass in the private back yard of the Jovian castle. Trowa had invited everyone over for a break from their studies. Being raised as royalty was hard work for there was a lot to learn. This was doubled by the fact that they were all secretly learning the ways of the youkai. Their families still had no idea that they had all become hanyou. Rika had mixed up a new drink and they were all in the process of 'quality testing' it, becoming thoroughly drunk.

"Ya know *hic* what Ryu, this stuff is strong!" Duo exclaimed.

"I bet it's *hic* strong enough to knock out a dinosaur!" Auroraagreed with her brother, loudly.

"Let's go ask Sets to take us back when they were alive to find out." Trowa suggested, the only member of the group sober enough to contemplate such a scheme. By Sets, he was refereeing to the senshi of Pluto and time, Setsuna

"Better yet, I learnt how to open a time portal yesterday," Akeifa said happily. "Sets finally taught me after I annoyed her enough."

"Let's go then!" Otogi exclaimed.

When they arrived in the past, the first decent-sized dinosaur they came across was a triceratops.

"Let's *hic* try this one." Atalanta said, conjuring up a large bowl full of Rika's drink…

@End Flashback@...

"Anyway, we some how got the dinosaur to drink from the bowl. I can't remember the details too clearly; being too drunk to care. The next thing we know, the triceratops is unconscious. We're pretty sure it was the drink that knocked it out." Aislin recalled.

"And to that day we have never stopped drinking this," Rika added. "We've gotten so used to this that we can drink normal alcohol without being affected in the least."

"A toast to our livers… they were fun while they were alive and so were we!" Atalanta said, before everyone collapsed laughing.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

They all slept in late on Sunday and basically just watched movies before it was time to go home. Syaoran was some what sad to see his aunts leave, he was becoming attached to his large family and loving every story they told him, or piece of advice they gave him.

Author's Notes: I am not going to write much here this time, I have decided to let my beta reader Saberwyn write the AN instead.

Yo! Saberwyn here. Resident mortal, bodyguard and all-round protagonist, soon to be reporting for duty. We've got five memory-less pilots to fix, so it's going to get interesting. Read and review, or I might get angry. Read the next chapter when posted, and find out how bad a thing that really is. J
