A New Addition

Chapter 2: A Phone Call and a Gun

Sakura Harusame

~*Hiya! Okay, here is the next chapter to my wonderful (I hope…) story! It's a little jump forward in time, but I want to get the story moving along so…

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

~*The Next Day, Around 1 in the Afternoon*~

The rest of the night had been a disaster, to put in kindly. Wufei `accidentally' knocked a bowl of salad onto Duo. As revenge, Duo attempted to dump the mashed potatoes on Wufei's head but tripped and somehow managed to get Trowa instead. Well, that started a full out food fight, ruining Quatre's perfect dinner. And Athena's favorite green dress when she happened to walk in to a cherry pie being flung across the room. After that, she managed to `peacefully' settle things down. (If you can call screaming about the injustice of her favorite dress and one of the most expensive that she had, being ruined until everyone shut up and apologized `peacefully'.)

Quatre was cleaning up lunch, Trowa helping him. Wufei hadn't left his room sense the incident at dinner last night, except to eat. Duo and Heero were sitting in the living room, arguing about what to watch, as usual. Athena gracefully stepped down the stairs. Her hair was damp from the shower she had just taken and was, as usual, in a high ponytail that was braided. She was now sporting a Persia blue halter-top, tight black pants, and black boots.

"I just got a call from Foreign Vice-Minister Darlian. She wishes to see me." Wufei walked out to hear Athena speaking to Duo and Heero. "It seems she wants something from the Preventors and Sally volunteered me, seeing as I was so close. I'll be gone for a while."

"How are you going to get there?" Heero asked, stealing the remote back from Duo.

"I don't know. I'll call Relena back, maybe she'll send Hilde after me…" Athena reached into the purse she had on her shoulder and dug around for her phone. "Damn cell phone…"

Wufei stood there and admired Athena's looks. He snapped out of the trance he was in and snickered. /Baka onna…/ He looked at the floor and saw her phone sitting there. /She must have dropped it when she came down. /

"Ahhh! Don't say her name!" Heero and Duo groaned together.

"Okay, okay! I won't say Hilde or Relena's names again." She said with a small smirk then returned to searching for her cell phone. Both of the boys just growled at her.

Wufei walked down the stairs, her cell phone stuffed in his pocket. "Looking for this?" He pulled the phone from his pocket and handed it to her.

"Thanks Wufei." She turned it on and began to search for Relena's number.

"Don't bother calling her back. I'll give you a ride." Wufei walked towards the front door, grabbing his keys of the table.

"Okay." A little taken back, she quickly followed. "Bye Heero, Duo."

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

A twenty minute ride, and about 4 arguments later, Wufei pulled up to Relena's manor. He stopped and let Athena out only to call her back.

"Here's my cell phone number. Call the house first, but if you need a ride home, I'll come get you." He handed her a piece of paper with his cell phone and the house numbers.

"Okay Wufei, and thank you." She smiled before turning to the gate and walking through. She made her way up the long walkway.

"Hello Pagan." He was standing at the front door, awaiting her arrival.

"Hello Miss Athena. Miss Relena is expecting you." He opened the door to let her in, then followed her. He then led her up to Relena's study where she was currently working.

Knock-knock

"Yes?" Relena called to the door.

"Miss Relena, your guest is here." Pagan replied.

"Send her in." Athena stepped through the door to be greeted by Relena's smiling face. "Good evening Athena."

"Good evening, Foreign Vice-Minister Darlian." Athena bowed slightly to show respect. "Now, not to be rude, but may we get down to business. What is it that I have been summoned here for?"

"I recently obtained information about your arrival the Winner manor. May I ask what business you have there." Relena sat her hands down on her desk and leaned toward Athena.

"Relena, be kinder to the girl. You may actually get some answers out of her that way." Hilde stepped out of the shadows.

"I know what I'm doing Hilde." She shot the ex-solider a dark look. "Now, Athena, why are you currently residing at the Winner manor?"

"I am here to visit someone I love dearly, Relena. Something you are incapable of feeling." Athena spoke in a solemn tone.

"Actually, I am quite capable of feeling love and that's why I summoned you here. I asked Sally for you specifically." Relena sat there with an amused smirk on her face.

Athena heard a gun click. "What, do you plan to shoot me? What good will it do you?"

"No, *I* plan on shooting you." Hilde pointed the gun at Athena's head. "That is, if you're not going to give me the answers I want."

"I know what you want me to say. You want me to say I'm not here to visit Heero or Duo. Well, if I said that, I would be lying. And Shinimegami[1] doesn't lie." She spoke with a proud smirk.

"Wrong answer." Hilde fired a warning shot into the wall behind Athena.

"Hilde! Not my wall!" Relena screeched.

"Calm down Relena." Hilde rubbed her left ear, trying to regain some hearing in it.

"Fools. Do you really think death threats are going to work on an ex-solider?!" Athena nearly should, almost losing her cool demeanor.

"I think-" Relena casually walked over to Athena. "-someone is losing her cool."

"And I think you're a prissy little passivist princess who's too used to getting her way. What's your point?" Hilde snickered at Athena's comment.

Relena turned bright red. "I am not a passivist princess!!" She screeched in Athena's ear.

"God, do you *have* to screech?!" Hilde laughed harder.

Relena was getting pissed. "Hilde! Shoot her! NOW!"

Hilde was too busy laughing to do anything of the sort. She was holding her sides, giggling like a maniac.

"Relena, I know what this is about. You think I'm here on some sort of a tryst with Heero, don't you?" Relena nodded, still furious. "Well, I can see why you're worried. He hates you Relena! You're the kind of girl they send security after at a beauty pageant! You're voice sounds like a live cat having its fur stripped off, you stalked him everywhere from Siberia to space-"

"YOUR POINT?!?!"

"You are the type of girl most call a converter." Hilde fell over she was laughing so hard now. Relena just stood their, beyond confused.

"Converter?"

"Girls like you turn guys gay!" Athena did nothing but smirk at the look on Relena's face. It was priceless. She looked as if a bus going 90 miles an hour had hit her.

"W-w-WHAT!? You mean to tell me that Heero Yuy, *my* Heero Yuy-"

"He's not *your* Heero. He's Duo's!" Hilde instantly stopped laughing. And started hyperventilating.

"W-what?" She fell to the floor unconscious.

Athena walked over to where Hilde lay and grabbed her gun. "Now-" She pointed the gun at Relena. "Are we finished here?"

"Y-yes?" It was more of a question then an answer.

"Good." She lowered the gun "Good bye Foreign Vice-Minister Darlian."

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Duo launched for the phone when it rang. "Yuy-Maxwell-Winner-Barton-Chang residence, Duo speaking."

"Hello Duo."

"Hey! Athena! What did you-know-who want?" Duo was sitting in the living room next to Heero.

"Nothing important. May I speak with Wufei please?" Her voice was cutting out, telling Duo she was on her cell phone.

"Sure." He put his hand over the phone. "WU-MAN!!! TELEPHONE!!!"

Wufei picked up the phone in the training room. "Hello?"

"Hi Wufei. Duo you can get off the phone now."

"Okay! Okay! I'm gettin' off!" The `click' told Athena he hung up.

"Yes?" Wufei asked, a little aggravated.

"Um, are you busy?"

"No, not really. You need a ride?"

"Yeah. Like, now. I really pissed Relena and Hilde off…"

BANG

"Athena?" No answer. "Athena?!"
