Gundam Wing Fan Fiction ❯ Chibi Wufei ❯ Chapter 5 ( Chapter 6 )

Disclaimer : I do not own the GW characters.

 

Author's Note : I would like to make a declaration here. First of all, some of the readers might found out that this ficcy is similar to a ficcy by Chaosdreamer titled `The Tale of Two Chibis'. Well, I do admit that I have used/borrowed/stole or whatever you want to call it into my `Chibi Wufei'. I was contacted by this website's authority and I have explained and gave my reason. Chaosdreamer replied saying that she has no objection with me to continue this fic. My big thanks to Chaosdreamer as she willing to forgive me for my irresponsibility.

 

But maybe because of my way I reply/write in English <as I'm not a native in English> has somehow offended some Chaosdreamer's fans; I hereby would like to say I'm sorry. Anyway, if there is any reader who would like me to delete my `Chibi Wufei' from website, I would gladly to within three days time and totally discontinued my ficcy but I will still continue my other ficcy, `Beautiful Life' as it is my original.

 

Finally, my thanks to lass48 for betaing this chapter for me. I hope we can work together again if I are to be given a chance.

Chapter 5

 

 

"Let me repeat that. You mean Duo, as in Duo Maxwell, ex-gundam pilot 02 took a recipe from a website and made soup from it and he let Wufei have the honor of eating first and... 'Poof'... now this Wufei?" Sally's hands imitated the silly explosion gesture Quatre has just done while explaining to her a minute ago, her face full of disbelief.

 

"Well, that was what Duo told us." Quatre shrugged.

 

"B... but a soup.... There's no scientist that has come out with something to turn an adult into a child even if they had tried to create some kind of serum for longevity of life, but HE, Duo Maxwell... a DUMMY, knowing nothing about science has done it and there's concrete proof! It's injustice!" Sally's eyes burned with fire as she raised her fist in front of her.

 

Everybody, minus Duo and little Wufei sweatdropped with her exclamations.

 

"Isn't that justice word Wufei's trademark?" Trowa, seated the farthest from the two women whispered behind his cup of tea before he drank it, audible only to Heero.

 

"Hn..." Heero grunted. "I have checked through the website and found no harm in it and it's an authentic recipe website." Pulling out his printed results from his spandex, he passed it to them. One does wonder how Heero puts things in his spandex without a trace of a line or bulge showing. Let alone his gun.

 

They scanned the paper. From what they learned, the recipe was totally harmless as it was just a simple... corn soup.

 

"I still don't get it." Une put her paper down on her lap, feeling frustrated. "It's just a simple general recipe even a kid would know how to cook but why Duo?" Une looked up at them as something crossed her mind. "Unless..."

 

Their eyes fixed on Une face, curiosity clearly written on their faces. "Unless what?" They chorused.

 

"Unless he put something else in it."

 

"But we looked through all the ingredients Duo used and nothing looked suspicious to us." Quatre shook his head.

 

"I packed the leftover soup and sent it to the Preventers' lab for a run thorough this morning." Trowa added.

 

"Looks like we can't do anything until the results are released next week." Une sighed.

 

"But I will personally run thorough the blood tests. Nobody will stop me or I would love to use my new set of toys I just acquired from Russia." Sally smiled and her eyes gleamed with evil.

 

The rest of them shuddered with fear. They privately noted. Never step on Sally's tail. They wondered what the new toy she got recently is.

 

Trowa, Heero and Quatre looked at Une discreetly. Quatre, being the nearest to Une, whispered to her. "What kind of toys has Preventers bought lately?"

 

Une shrugged and whispered, "I never heard any news about a Preventers' Medic request for any new toy... but I will check with them later."

 

"Keep us informed."

 

Une nodded.

 

It's better for them to know beforehand before they became the victim of Sally's wrath. Even the Perfect Soldier was looking tense at the mention of Sally's toys.

 

Quatre still clearly remembered the day when for the first time Heero caught the flu and was so miserable. They had to call Sally to come to the mansion to check on Heero as he can't even move without feeling sick to his stomach. After a check up, Sally rummaged around in her bag and came out with... Lo and Behold... a syringe filled with liquid and attached to it was a very thick needle. Well, in the ex-gundam pilots' opinion the needle was really thick not to mention... long. Even their fearless member who could set his own broken leg without a whimper and knew no pain also cowered from the needle. Needless to say, even with his weak body, ignoring his sickness, he tried to scramble out from his bed and run. Unfortunately, Trowa was with them at the time and managed to hold him down although Heero did put up a vicious fight. Trowa got a black eye that lasted the whole week. Heero screamed at the top of his lungs when Sally injected him on his butt. After Duo had come back from Preventers and heard the story, he had practically laughed his head off and didn't let Heero live it down for two weeks. Wufei would laugh out loud every time he saw Heero face to face. Trowa, who got a taste of his punches even in his weakened condition, avoided getting within a 3 foot radius of him.

 

Quatre snickered. Heero gave him a death glare. Trowa smirked. Une just blinked at them. Sally was oblivious of her surroundings, dreaming of her new toys with her smile still plastered on her face.

 

Une cleared her throat. "Sally, enough with your day dreaming. We still do have an issue here." Sally snapped out of her dream and glared at Une. "So, Wufei will not be available at Preventers but still I will not approve the rest of you taking leave simultaneously, even though it's peace time. If the Preventers' Top 5 Agents do not make an appearance within Preventers' building and are active with their job or mission, I'm sure the terrorists would gather their courage to start another rebellion. We also mustn't let them know that we are short one agent, not to mention he's a child. They will use him against us if they find out.”

 

“But who's gonna take care of little Wufei?” Quatre voiced his concern.

 

“Even if we can't take leave together we can make arrangements in our schedules.” Heero remarked.

 

“We will take turns on leave and reporting ourselves back to Preventers.” Trowa continued after Heero.

 

“We will also need to do some cover up on Wufei's disappearance.” Quatre added.

 

Une frowned. “I can agree with the idea of the taking turns arrangement but I don't think that saying that Agent Fire is out on a mission is a good idea. There could be a mole in Preventers.”

 

They were silent as all of them were deeply in thought on how to solve Wufei's absence.

 

“Well, I think I can write out a report stating that Agent Fire is not available for a few months as he needs to recover from a severe injury he suffered during his latest, strictly confidential mission as a Preventers' doctor position. How's that.” Sally supplied.

 

The three pilots' eyes brightened with Sally's idea.

 

“Strictly confidential mission?” Une raised an eyebrow at Sally.

 

“Well, you are the head of Preventers. Surely you can think up something. Who do you trust the most in dealing with something big in a mission? Besides Zechs of course.” Sally gave her a lopsided grin.

 

Trowa and Heero turned to blink at Une. Quatre smiled knowingly. Une gaped at her as she went crimson. “I will think about it and I have nothing going on with Zech so just get on with it.”

 

“If you say so.” Sally smirked.

 

“Now, back to Duo's and Wufei's problem. I hope you can find out the reason for Wufei's shrinking and come up with a cure as soon as possible.” Une changed the subject.

 

Sally's mind switched back to her previous injustice case. “Now that you mention it, I still can't believe that a scientific dummy can create history. I need him to show me what exactly he did with the soup. Maybe I can learn something from him and create some kind of serum to enable man to look young forever.” Her gleaming evil eyes are back.

 

Heero, Trowa and Quatre looked at each other uneasily. It's bad enough Sally was a doctor but to be a scientist too… God knows she might create a junior Frankenstein.

 

Sally stood up and walked to the kitchen.

 

 

* * * * * *

 

Duo pulled Wufei up and set him on the chair and then turned around to rummage in the refrigerator to get two small cups of chocolate ice-cream. Next, he rummaged for two spoons from a drawer and set each of them in front of Wufei before he took a seat for himself. Wufei rubbed away his last tear with his newly bought long sleeve sweatshirt with a cap attached at his back, gingerly fisted his spoon and dug out a big spoonful of ice-cream and brought it to his open mouth. Wufei made a weird sound at the back of his throat before he shivered from the cold in his mouth. Duo chuckled.

 

“Wu-baby, you got to eat it slowly and bit by bit before you give yourself a headache or upset you little tummy.” Duo dug himself a small portion and put it in his mouth. Bliss….

 

Wufei saw the look on Duo's face as he closed his eyes when the ice-cream disappeared into his mouth and moaned with pleasure. Then, he dug into his ice-cream for the second time but in a smaller portion, bringing it to his mouth, closing his eyes and he moaned out right away.

 

Duo snapped his eyes open, spoon still stuck in his mouth. He looked at Wufei, fisted spoon in his mouth and eyes closed in bliss. He was stunned. After a moment, Wufei opened his eyes and looked back at Duo, eye to eye. Duo pulled out his spoon and Wufei followed and licked his lips.

 

“Yummy!” Wufei grinned.

 

Duo could no longer control himself and lunged to kneel in front of Wufei and gave him a bear hug as he rubbed his cheek against Wufei's.

 

“Aw, man! You are way too~ ~ cute! I can't believe Wu-man can be so~ ~ cute! I claim you as mine, Wu-baby! I will protect you from the big baddie!”

 

After a few more rubs on his cheek, Duo released him, their two noses touching and stared at his wide ebony eyes. Wufei had to cross his eyes to look back at Duo. Duo smiled and gently rubbed both of their noses affectionately before he pulled back his head.

 

Wufei giggled and with his two short arms, he wrapped around Duo's neck and then, gave him a wet peck on his cheek. Duo gasped. His eyes widened. It had been a long time since he got a kiss… it was before Sister Helen died. Something stirred within his heart. Duo smiled and kissed Wufei's cheek soundly.

 

“Let's finish our ice-cream before it's melted, shall we?” Duo returned to his seat.

 

“Ice-cream!” Wufei chirped.

 

Suddenly, Sally appeared in the kitchen and hovered over Duo making him move his body to back away from her. “Duo, I need you to cook that soup of yours again. Now. I want to learn what you put in it and how you cooked it. And the timing too. In. Detail.” Sally hovered an inch closer to Duo for every word she said.

 

Duo backed away inch by inch from her advance. He yelped when he fell off his chair. Legs over the seat as his body lay on the floor.

 

“Now?” Duo groaned.

 

“Yes.” Sally straightened her back and crossed her arms.

 

“But I thought I was already banned from cooking.”

 

Sally turned to glare at the rest of the pilots who were standing at the kitchen door. “Did you?”

 

They quickly shook their heads.

 

Sally turned back to Duo. “I didn't hear any objection.”

 

“Fine.”
