Author: Lunar Phoenix Summary: a little wager becomes an all out war...a pratical joke war. Rating:G Anime: Gundam Wing Category: Humor Email: Lunar_Phoenix13@yahoo.com Okay, this is the first Gundam Wing fanfic I've completed. It's just a short story done out of pure boredom. Enjoy! DISCLAIMER: No, Gundam Wing is not mine...but a girl can wish... ************* The Bet- Ch. 1 ************* Four of the five gundam pilots, Heero, Duo, Trowa, and Wufei sat at a small round table. It had been five hours since the whole thing had started. They looked at each other. Eyes darted back and forth. Suspicion and suspense were in the air. Wufei and Trowa were looking at Heero, then Duo, then Heero, and then Duo once again. The assassin and the god of death showed no expression at all. Their faces completely masked everything they were feeling and thinking. It was a showdown between the best. Only one person would win this battle. "Full house, Ha! Beat that Mr. 'Perfect Soldier' Yuy!" Duo triumphantly slapped three kings and two queens down onto the table. Wufei groaned as the braided pilot reached for the large pile of bills and coins. "I was so sure Heero was going to win. There is no justice in the world when a boy that looks like a girl wins a poker game!" He started pulling out his wallet to pay his bet with Trowa "Pot calling kettle," muttered Trowa under his breath, luckily, Wufei didn't hear. Just as Duo was about to pull all the money towards him, Heero spoke up. "Not so fast braid boy, royal flush, in spades," annouced Heero, showing just a bit of egotism in his voice. "Ha! Yes! Take that clown!" shouted Wufei as he held out his hand to receive the money. Trowa handed him a twenty dollar bill as he muttered something about a justice-ranting short-tempered gynophobic. Duo stared at the royal flush in pure amazement. His jaw was dropped and he looked about ready to faint. "My money...my beautiful money...all gone...forever" Heero smirked. "You know the deal, Maxwell," The god of death groaned. "ALL OF THEM???" Heero nodded. "Can't you just shoot me or punch me or something?" "Been there, done that." Duo groaned again. *********************************************************************** Next morning... *********************************************************************** "Morning guys! Ready to get to work on the gundams?" asked Quatre merrily when he met the others at the safehouse. The edges of Heero's mouth twitched oh-so-slightly as Duo immediately sulked. Trowa was trying to hold back his laughter while Wufei was just grinning out right. "About that Quatre, Duo has graciously offered to repair and clean all the gundams for us," answered Heero. "Are you sure about that Duo? It's a very big job." Duo just plastered on a weak smile and nodded. "Well, alright, but if you need any help, feel free to ask!" "Oh, I doubt he'd be asking for any help, Quatre," said Wufei. Duo headed into the garage, mumbling. Then he looked up, all of the gundams were in HORRIBLE shape. Oddly enough, Wing ZERO and the Shenlong looked worse than the other three. " YOU!!!" *********************************************************************** THE END...or is it? *********************************************************************** Well? Like it? Hate it?
