How they formed Chapter 5: Damsels in Distress
"All of you are so smart," Quatre said meekly. He just stayed quiet through the past conversation, and started to believe what his father said about him being blonde* smart.
"No little one, I'd say we more or less just think too damn much. Except for that guy Duo. He seems to just talk without thinking. Let me guess, people tease you for being a blonde and wearing what you wear," Trowa asked opening up a wooden crate.
"My father doesn't believe I can take care of myself because I'm dumb. Dumber than anything he's ever seen," Quatre said sadly.
"Hey, don't let it get to you. You're just ditzy. Don't worry, you'll learn to show how smart you really are sometime soon," the Latin boy said to cheer the boy up, and smiled a rare smile. Not that this blonde boy knew it was rare, but he found it helped Quatre immensely.
"Thank you. So, why did you come here," the blonde asked curiously.
"Well, I've been living in a traveling circus. And I'm plain sick of it, which is why when I saw the flyer I knew I had to do this. In order to escape the circus and take my sister out with me."
"You have a sister? What's her name," again, Quatre asked curious.
"Her name is Cathy. She's the only family I have left right now, but she's not the only reason I came out here," the boy said finding something within the crate.
"Oh, and what was the other reason? Hey, did you find something," he then asked realizing Trowa's legs were in the air.
"I think it's a tunnel that's been hidden by this huge crate, holy shit," was the last thing he heard yelled, before the legs disappeared. Shocked, and thinking he might've hurt himself, the blonde ran to the crate, and found the crate led into a very dark, creepy tunnel.
"Trowa! Did you fall down by accident? Or did someone grab you," he then asked. /Doh! That last question was such a blonde question, / Quatre berated himself, but was glad to receive an answer, only not that one.
"I'd say he was grabbed blondy! Now run before I get you too," he heard a deeper, even deeper than Trowa's, voice say. He could feel the fear and concern coming from the Latin boy below, and knew this wasn't a joke.
"Don't worry Trowa! I'll get the others to help us! And we'll rescue you! Don't worry," he yelled into the crate, and headed back into the room they had left the other boys.
[Within the room.]
"Guys! Trowa's…been…kidnapped," he said trying to catch his breath.
"What are you talking about? That tall guy," Duo asked confirming. At the blonde's affirmative nod, even Heero was a bit shocked.
"He didn't look like the type to get kidnapped," the Japanese boy started to think. Leaning against one of the walls, Duo started to think to. When suddenly, the wall he leaned on moved. It turned and Duo ended up falling into the other room it lead into. All this had happened quietly though, and while the others were facing the other direction.
"Well, I'm sure Duo and I can help right Duo? Duo?" Quickly all of them turned, and found the braded boy to be gone. /Where did he go? / Heero asked himself, and started to panic.
"I think this wall is rigged, if you notice it doesn't have the same markings as it did before. Now that I remember you're idiotic friend was leaning on this wall. It must have turned and made him go into another room," Wufei pointed out/explained.
"Thanks for actually helping out. I thought you were individual," Heero said back sarcastically, and acting out of character. With that reply, the Chinese boy soon left to go elsewhere.
"He may seem cold, but you hurt him," Quatre informed the Japanese boy.
"Doesn't matter. He wants to stay by himself. He doesn't care about Duo or Trowa like you and I do am I right, (sees the blonde slowly nod) okay then. Let's go find them and kick some fucking ass," Heero then said walking off.
"Wait! I should take you to the crate!" He could sense a lot of anger and concern emitting from this dark-haired boy, and wondered if it was safe with him. Either way they were at the crate, looking down.
"How far down do you think it is," he heard the angered Jap ask.
"Uh…a few feet down," he said nervously, in fear he might be pushed in, but was stunned to see Heero jump down himself. He heard a few grunting noises from below, and then someone telling him to get down there with him.
"Okay, are there any sharp rocks down there," he said half his body hanging down, but still clinging to the edge of the crate with his hands.
"Just get down," Heero said grabbing the boy's waist, and putting him down.
"Oh, I guess it is real easy to grab someone from up there," Quatre said laughing nervously. Either way he had to walk quickly to keep up with the other boy.
[Meanwhile.]
"Man, my ass hurts from that fall," Duo started to complain.
"Not as much as my head," he heard a deep (sexy) voice say behind him. Looking carefully, he found it was Trowa.
"Hey! I found you! Quatre was scared shitless when he got to us. He said you were kidnapped, but I guess you're not now that I'm here," he started to say happily.
"Duo, if you don't notice, I'm still kidnapped, and frankly, you are too," he heard the Latin boy say. Doing a double take, the braded found he was right, and started to panic.
"Well what do you know! We're damsels in distress! Now all we need is our two princes Heero and Quatre to arrive, and rescue us. Yep, and then we'll end up…uh…never mind," Duo stopped himself, a first for him. When it came to saying things, he won't care if it's embarrassing his friends or himself, but if it's real personal, then no.
"Maybe we can work together and try and get out of this mess," Trowa suggested. Nodding the both of them tried to get out of their ropes.

It's obvious four of them are already a group. Now to get that fifth member in it! I'm off to write another chapter.
