The Perfect Soldier's Mental Break-down

THUMP...Thump...thump...pause...THUMP...Thump...thump...pause...THUMP...Thump...thump...pause...THUMP-SMACK!!!!
"MAXWELL!!!!!"
Hiiro glances at the wall separating the bedroom from the living room...
"Uh...sorry Wu-man, I didn't mean too..."
Hiiro shakes his head slightly...
"KISAMA!!!!!!!!"
"Uh...Wu-man? No! Stay away from me with those!!! HELP MEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Then Duo comes flying into their room, clutching his braid, and hides behind Hiiro. An irate Wufei, complete with large red circle on his forehead and a pair of scissors, comes running after him. Duo eeps and ducks under Hiiro's desk, latching onto Hiiro's legs, yelling, "HIIRO!!! Keep'em away!!!!!!!!! I said I was sorry an' I didn't MEAN to hit you...Hiiro?"
Hiiro glances down at him, "hn... Duo, get off me...baka."
Quatre peeks in cautiously and spots both Hiiro and Wufei but, not Duo. His eyes widen and he looks and sounds worried, "Hiiro, Wufei, what happened? Where's Duo?"
Duo suddenly flys out from under the desk and hide behind Quatre, clutching his braid. Quatre squeaks and Hiiro returns his attention to his computer, Wufei advances towards the cowering Duo, scissors ready. Quatre and Duo eye up the scissors and Quatre squeaks out, "Wufei, please put those down. Duo didn. t mean to hit you with the ball, right?" Wufei glares at Duo and leaves the room with a snort. Quatre and Duo both sigh in relief, Hiiro just sits there still typing. Quatre walks off, Duo goes behind Hiiro, slips his arms around him and whispers, "Whatcha doin', Hee-chan?"
Hiiro continues typing, Duo tightens his arms around him and leans his head against the near-bare shoulder, reading the message. Hiiro leans his head slightly, resting it on Duo's cheek. "Another mission," Duo comments, "Well I guess that's better than just sittin. here doin' nothin'," he chuckles, letting a hand slip down to caress Hiiro's spandex clad leg, "or at least nothin. mission related."
Hiiro glances at him and reaches over, turning the computer off. Duo grins even wider and murmurs, "so Hee-chan, you wanna play?"
Somehow Hiiro manages to pounce Duo, pinning him to the floor. Amidst the tangle, Duo manages to slip a hand down Hiiro. s spandex. That led to a flurry of flying clothes and kisses.
Quatre walks past the bedroom door and pauses, expecting to hear Duo. s mindless chatter or Hiiro's near-silent typing. Instead he hears moans. His eyes widen and he hurries on past desperately looking for either of the other pilots, but preferably Trowa.

~*~ The next morning ~*~

Duo comes bounding out from the hallway leading to the bedrooms and cheerfully shouts, "G'mornin. Wu-man! Such a lovely day isn't it," he gestures out the window to the rain.

The Chinese boy glares at him and nearly snarls, "go away Maxwell." Duo plops down heavily onto the couch, grabbing the remote. He pouts, "Wufei& hidoi& " and turns on cartoons, getting another glare from Wufei.

After a few minutes, a rather sleepy looking Quatre comes out and fixes Duo, who is currently laughing quite loudly, a curious/concerned/confused/irritated look. Neither Duo nor Wufei notice his appearance, the former too absorbed in the cartoons, the later in a coma, err& meditation. Noting this, Quatre slowly walks over and sits down next to Duo, curious as to what set the braided hyena off this time. Duo giggles to Quatre, "G. mornin. & hehehe& Quat& hehehe& Sorry& did I& hehe& wake you?"

The blonde yawns and nods, "yes you did," he glances towards Wufei, "apparently I. m the only one you woke-" A snort from Wufei. s direction cut that thought short, "You. re not the only one he woke." Duo grins, almost sheepishly, "sorry& I didn. t mean to& "

Quatre pats his arm, "that. s OK Duo. Where. s Hiiro?"

Duo. s grin widens drastically, "still asleep. He seemed rather... tired last night... Why?"

Wufei. s face suddenly turns a very interesting shade of red, Quatre just blushes, "Oh... uh... I was just wondering if he received a new mission for us yet...  I'll ask when he wakes up."

Duo grins(still), "oh yeah& we did get a mission& I didn. t catch what the specs on it were cause I was a LITTLE sidetracked, but that. s beside the point, and if I DID know them, I don. t remember them now for some strange, unknown reason so," pauses to take in air, "we'll all just have to wait for Hiiro to some on down cause I know for sure that he'd remember what they are, after all he IS  perfect , hehehe. In more ways than one, he definitely proved that last-mphf!"

Quatre looks a Wufei, who had just crammed the end of Duo. s braid into him mouth, "thank you Wufei." W ufei mock-bows to him, Duo pins the Chinese boy with a glare that clearly read, "Wufei, that' s  it, YOU ARE DEAD," and lunged for him, nearly tipping the couch in the process. Wufei casually steps out of the way, sending Duo sprawling across the floor. The loud thud Duo made drew Trowa from his and Quatre. s bedroom.

Duo, once again, lunged for Wufei, this time he caught the braid tip and wedges it in the window. Duo, unknowing of his braid. s situation, lunges again, only to be yanked back by the braid, crashing into the window with a yelp, the Chinese boy simply smirks. Trowa wanders down and quietly sits down next to the blonde. He glances around, only visible eye slowly resting on the struggling, and cursing, Duo and then the glowering Wufei. He looks to the Arab, "Do I want to know." The blonde looks up at him and leans back with a sigh, "Duo was being a little too vocal and-" Before he could finish his sentence, the braided wonder, yet again, made himself known.

Duo was still tugging at the end of his braid and lets out a rather impressive string of curses in several languages. Suddenly the window . lets go. of the braid tip, sending Duo tumbling backwards into the back of the couch. Quatre looks down at him worriedly, "Duo, daijobu?"

The American rubs the back of his head, "Itai, that hurt, at least it wasn't my nose! Wu-man, hidoi."

Wufei smirks, "Iie, it' s justice."

Duo frowns slightly, then grins, goes storming up the stairs in a psychotic flurry of limbs, and ends up bowling over Hiiro, who was coming down the stairs. Both pilots tumble down the stairs in a ball. Hiiro manages to regain his balance quickly and stands up at the bottom of the stairs, tugging Duo to his feet, by the braid. Duo lets out an 'eep' as his braid is grabbed and several  'itai' as he is tugged to his feet.

Quatre looks at Hiiro, "Nee, Hiiro, did you receive any missions for us yet?"

Hiiro lets go of the braid with a muttered 'Duo no baka' and nods, "Hai... "
