Chapter 2 - Explanations

Heero merely snorted as the two screamed, putting the laptop down and crossed his arms. He could hear the pounding of footsteps in the hallway.

The lights flicked on as Trowa, Quatre, and Wufei bounded into the room, weapons drawn. "What's going on in here?!" Trowa demanded.

All eyes fell on the girl.

Cassie looked from boy to boy, growing paler by the minute. Then she swallowed and managed a little wave. "Uhm, hi?" She said meekly.

"Who are you and what do you want?" Wufei asked, putting the safety back on his gun.

The blonde shakily got to her feet, straightened her T-shirt, and then went back to staring at them. Her mouth opened and closed a few times, then she snapped it shut. "Uhhh...."

"Why don't we start off by you telling us why you fell from our ceiling," Heero said, standing up. He leveled a glare at Cassie, who immediately took a step back. And I thought it wasn't as scary as some people described it. Yikes!

"Well," She started slowly, glancing around at the boys again. "I was sitting in front of my laptop reading a fic, then next thing I know I'm breaking up your lovely cuddle moment."

Heero raised an eyebrow. "Lovely cuddle moment?"

"Uh, yeah. That's what you two were doing, right?"

"Perhaps."

Cass raised an eyebrow, then shrugged lightly. "Look, I don't know how I ended up here. All I know is my computer started acting wonky and I got sucked into a blinking blue vortex, thus, ending up here."

Five pairs of eyes stared at her as if she was insane. She threw her hands up in the air and glared at them. "Fine, DON'T believe me!" She huffed.

Quatre stepped forward, smiling a bit hesitantly. "I'm sorry, but it's not everyday we have women dropping from our ceilings," He joked ("With outrageous stories," Duo muttered under his breath), trying to lighten the atmosphere a bit. Trowa stepped up behind him and laid a hand on his shoulder. "And usually we think it's...." The blonde trailed off uncertainly.

"OZ?" She finished.

Then blinked as four guns were pointed at her. "ACK! Hey, put those down!"

"How do you know about OZ?" Trowa asked, eyes narrowed dangerously.

"You wouldn't believe me if I told you," She muttered, but sighed and crossed her arms. "Would you believe me if I told you that you guys are pretty popular from where I come from?"

"Wait, you know about us?" Duo asked, curiosity peaked.

The girl nodded, then casually pointed to each pilot. "You're Duo Maxwell, He's Heero Yuy, Quatre Winner, Trowa Barton, and Chang Wufei."

There was silence for a moment, before Wufei spoke up, obviously still suspicious. "And who told you all this?"

The girl smiled a bit nervously. "You wouldn't believe me."

"You said that already. Explain."

"...You guys are characters from a popular anime."

More silence. Cassie sighed and rubbed at her temples. "Okay, you don't have to believe me, but I can assure you I'm not dangerous. Hell, do I look like I can beat up a Gundam pilot?"

The tenseness of the room seemed to go down a bit, and guns were once again put away. The girl sighed in relief and slumped to the floor, cross-legged.

"Okay....so," Duo spoke up, eyeing the girl on the floor. "You were sucked through your computer and ended up here? How in the hell did that happened?"

Cassie thought for a moment, then pointed to her laptop. "Can you hand me that?"

Duo handed her the small laptop, then crawled off the bed to sit next to her. She booted up the computer and logged in, then brought up a saved HTML file. She turned the laptop towards Duo and pointed to a paragraph. "I was reading that when my laptop went on the fritz."

Duo's eyes widened gradually as he read the document, then he scrolled up a bit and continued from the beginning. Everyone watched him curiously as he snickered at something, then gasped. "Whoa, that happened today!" He exclaimed.

The four remaining pilots huddled around him and read the document. Cassie sat back and stared at them, finally realizing just who was next to her.

The Gundam Pilots were right there, in the flesh. She blinked a few times. "I must be dreaming..."

"What is this anyway?" Wufei asked, squinting at the screen. "An intelligence report?"

"Fanfiction."

"What?"

"Errrr....a story written based on already existing characters," She explained, rubbing at her eyes.

"...I see." Wufei said slowly, then blushed hotly as he read another paragraph. Quatre glanced at him, then blushed too as he read it. Both of Trowa's eyebrows shot up and he stood straight. "Well." He stated calmly. "That's...a lot of detail."

"Isn't it?" Cassie chirped, then blushed hotly. She once again found herself being stared at by the five boys.

"...You read this stuff?" Duo asked.

"Uh, yes?"

"What, are you some kind of pervert?"

"HEY!"

"Alright, calm down." Quatre intervened, laying a hand on Cassie's and Duo's shoulders. "We can have plenty of time to talk about this in the morning."

"Q's right," Duo nodded, and the boys agreed.

"So...what's going to happen to me?" Cassie asked, blinking a few times.

"You're going to find an empty room and get some sleep before you fall over," Trowa said with a small smirk, noting the dark circles under her eyes and the way she was swaying ever so slightly.

"Okay." She said, getting to her feet and picking up her laptop. "Sorry I *yawn* scared the crap outta you guys."

"Don't worry about that now," Quatre said with a smile, leading her out of the room. "Get some rest, and we'll continue in the morning."

"*yawn* Yessir." Cassie replied absently, hugging her laptop to her chest. "Goodnight, guys."

"Goodnight....errrr, we never did get your name." Duo said, standing up.

"Cassandra, Cassie, whatever you wanna use," She said over her shoulder with a sleepy smile. "Call me what ya want."

"Gotcha," Duo nodded. "G'night, Cass."

"Night!" She yawned, then acked as Quatre pulled her out of the room.

The remaining boys glanced at each other. "So..." Wufei said, raising an eyebrow.

"In the morning, Wufei." Trowa said softly, wrapping his arm around his shoulder and leading him out of the room. "Goodnight, Heero, Duo."

"Night, Tro, 'Fei," Duo replied, already climbing into bed.

Heero shut off the light and closed the door, then crawled up next to him, wrapping his arms around the braided boy.

"So, whaddaya think about all this?" Duo asked softly, cuddling close.

"Not sure," Heero replied softly, closing his eyes. "I'll think about it more in the morning."

"Ditto. *yawn* G'night, love."

"Goodnight, Duo."

***

Cassie came awake with a jerk, sitting up straight and blinking rapidly. "Wow, what a dream." She said, scratching her head. She glanced around the room--

--and froze.

"Okay, so it wasn't a dream," She said, shocked as she climbed out of bed. She walked over to the mirror hanging from the wall and stared at herself.

"I can't believe it wasn't a dream," She murmured to herself as she fixed her hair, then straightened her clothes. She scowled at them and made a note to ask the boys if they had any spare clothes she could borrow.

"Well, I'm about as presentable as I'll ever be," She grumbled as she stalked out of the room and down the stairs.

~~~~~~

Everyone glanced up as Cassie stumbled into the kitchen. Cassie stared at them for a moment, then sat down at an empty seat, folding her hands in her lap. "Morning." She said softly.

She smiled slightly as they all returned the greeting, glad that they didn't seem to be as suspicious as last night.

They were silent for a good while as everyone drank coffee, and she politely declined when Quatre offered her a cup.

Finally, Heero spoke up. "Alright, I want to know everything." He said, tone hard. Cassie cringed and opened one eye to look at him.

"Everything?"

"Yes."

So, Cassie proceeded to explain everything she could. A recap of what happened last night, the anime that she had been talking about, fanfiction and most of the types she knew of, etc, even Yaoi (Which resulted in a few sputtered exclamations and lots of blushing on mostly everyone's part).

When she was done, she watched them, then glanced down at her hands.

"I...think I get it now." Duo said, folding his hands behind his head. "It sounds like one of those freaky self-insertion fics you mentioned."

Cassie groaned and rubbed her temples. "Some of those fics are done tastefully enough that they're great to read for a laugh, but others..." She shuddered and shook her head.

"We can let you stay here until you find a way home," Quatre said, smiling. "Since it's obvious you have nowhere else to go."

"Really? You mean it?" Cassie asked, hope sparkling in her eyes.

"If you can stand living in a house full of guys." Duo grinned.

Cassie grinned back. "I think I can handle it," She replied. "As long as you can stand living with a girl."

"Just don't go 'fangirl' on us," Trowa smirked, referring to one of her explanations about the different types of fangirls.

"No problem!" Cassie said cheerfully. "I like to consider myself the saner and less rabid forms of fangirl out there," She snickered as the boys all raised an eyebrow at her.

"Well, now that that's over," Duo said, leaning forward eagerly. "What's for breakfast?"

~~~~

After a nice, long shower, Cassie emerged from the bathroom and headed to Duo's room. She poked her head in and smiled at the braided boy. "Hey, thanks for loaning me some clothes."

Duo smiled back and walked out of the room to join her. "No problem. Just hope they're comfortable,"

Cassie shrugged and headed down the hallway, Duo next to her. "I'm not one to complain about things like clothes, if you happened to notice what I was wearing last night," She explained, tugging at the black shirt she was wearing and grinning. "But they ARE comfortable."

Duo chuckled and followed her into 'her' room, where she tossed her dirty clothes on the bed next to her laptop. "You guys wouldn't happen to have a phone plug around here, would you?" She asked hopefully.

"Uhh...no. Why do you need one of those?" Duo asked, raising both eyebrows.

"To plug in my laptop. I have a crappy connection, and it needs a phone plug to work," She glared at the offending laptop a moment, then shrugged at Duo. "I'm slow on the times. Everyone uses cable and T1s to connect now."

"I see," The braided pilot said, then flopped on her bed. "Maybe we can do some modifications so you can access the stuff here, using errrr...our technology."

"Really? Alright!" Cass cheered, giving Duo a hug. "I can show you guys some of the stuff I was talking about."

"I think what you showed us last night is enough," He said dryly, then grinned. "Although I AM interested in some of those stories you mentioned about me and Heero..."

Cassie grinned back. "Once I'm up and running, I'll see if I can find some of the *good* ones. The rest....well, I told you about the uh, different pairings, right?"

Duo narrowed his eyes, and Cassie laughed nervously. "WHAT other pairings?"

"Well, you see…"

One explanation later…

"THEY PAIR ME WITH WHO?!"
