Why does everyone keep staring at me? Heero wondered. We�re all wearing skirts. Yeah mine is a little shorter but come on! I always show the most skin! Hello! Spandex and little tank tops...all the time!

They were forced to take the back way out (Luna said if they stayed inside to train they would probably break something expensive.) because Sally and Lady Une were afraid that people would hit on them if they saw them. Heero didn�t care, when he wasn�t around the others he got hit on all the time anyway. He was used to it. That�s what I get for being so damn fine, he thought with a sarcastic humor rarely displayed to anyone else.

As for his skirt being so short, Heero was actually happy because he could move around so freely in it. Oh, and the fact that Duo was openly drooling helped, at least Heero thought he was drooling, although knowing Duo he could just be hot or something and trying to cool himself the way a dog did just for the hell of it. Duo sometimes did stupid stuff like that.

If he is staring, he�s not being any less obvious than Zechs. Zechs?! Why is he staring at me? I thought he and Noin...the hair. I always knew he was to pretty, Heero thought with the same dry humor.

Little displays that they had used for gun practice in war days of old were set up for practice. Duo went first and delivered a impressive attack with his mirror, but the aim sucked horribly, which Heero found ironic considering how well he has been able to aim his Gundam�s scythe and guns during the war. Despite this, he still missed the target and nearly fried a flock of birds that happened to pass by at the moment. They narrowly escaped only having damaged tail feathers.

Next, Wufei stepped up and with �Mars celestial fire,� hit the target, but caused minimal damage. Trowa and Quatre double teamed the targets, but caused little damage, although Heero enjoyed Trowa�s whispered �Supreme Thunder� attack going crazy and almost nailing an unexpecting Wufei.

In the chaos of the attack gone amuck, Heero stepped past them uttering, �Uranus World Shaking!� Everyone went silent in shock as the ball of golden energy flew from Heero�s hand into the ground and back up, completely destroying tree targets in the process.

�That�s it! Good work, Heero!� Luna said happily while thinking. At least they�re not all idiots. That kid�s a natural. He got the power level far past anything the original Uranus did.

�Cool, Heero! How come I can�t do that? Damn mirror!� Duo gushed, throwing down his mirror. �Um...Neptune Deep Submerge!� He actually destroyed a target that time, but only one. He wanted to beat Heero�s three.

They all continued practicing until the others actually began to get the hang of it and destroy the targets as well. Luna pulled Heero aside. �Aurora is going to attack somewhere around here soon. The others are coming along but...Sailor Moon was always the leader, but since Duo isn�t Sailor Moon, I just don�t know. I�m not sure Duo can handle it.�

�Duo is much tougher than he looks,� Heero droned in his monotone, throwing a glance at the ex-Deathscythe hell pilot prancing around in the turquoise skirt. �I don�t think he is meant to be the leader. Sailor Moon-the original-had a crystal, the Silver Imperium Crystal. It made her the Moon princess so she could destroy evil. It was in her compact when I gave the compact to Duo, but when the compact became Neptune�s wand, it disappeared.�

Heero pulled out his transformation wand. �You meant this?� Sure enough, the crystal had embedded itself in Heero�s wand. �It appeared when I transformed.� Heero explained.

�So you see! You are the Moon princess, and the leader!� Luna exclaimed.

�Princess? Um...I�m a guy...�

�Perhaps Duo is the prince and-�

Okay! Princess sounds good I always thought I was to pretty anyway,� Heero said with enthusiasm he had never heard in his own voice before.

Meanwhile, Duo had been watching the interaction between the black cat and Heero curiously. Heero pulled out his wand and displayed a crystal, which Duo recalled being in the compact he had originally been given. The cat looked happy. She said something that made Heero look confused and something else that made him look happy as well. Oh god! He�s smiling! Someone�s going to die or already has! Duo thought nervously.

As Duo looked closer thought, he noticed that the smile was different. It wasn�t Heero�s manic I-just-blew-something-up smile. He looked genuinely happy. In fact, he looked like a normal teenager-discounting that he was wearing a stunningly short fuku and tiara.

God he�s gorgeous! Duo thought longingly. He was. His hair, usually in his face, was pushed off to the side in a style worn by the original Uranus to display his tiara. Duo wasn�t certain, but he thought he even saw some clear lip gloss on those pouting lips. Lips he wouldn�t mind kissing along with everything else in that tight little dress...STOP! Duo told himself. If Heero knew what you�re thinking he�d kill you...wouldn�t he? Duo wasn�t so sure anymore. He wasn�t sure of anything anymore.

Lost in his train of thought, Duo hadn�t realized Heero and Luna had rejoined the rest of the group. �Artemis! Heero has the crystal!� Luna told the white cat excitedly.

�Really?� The cat asked looking at Heero, who flashed his wand at Artemis for him to see. �Good! So we didn�t lose it after all. But that means Heero�s the moon princess-�

�Heero? A princess? Whoa, wait till your girlfriend hears about that!� Duo teased, although it gave him very little pleasure.

�She�s NOT my girlfriend!�

�Who?� The two cats asked at the same time.

�Relena,� Duo said with a lopsided grin, even though his heart was aching the entire time.

�I don�t feel that way about her,� said Heero softly.

�Yeah? How come you could never bring yourself to kill her?� Duo asked, almost afraid of the answer.

�Um, let�s see. Oh yes, she was the only hope for peace?� Heero said sarcastically.

�Sorry, doesn't� fly,� Duo said with a grin.

�Hey, you�re little infatuation with Hilde isn�t-�

�What the hell does that mean?� Duo demanded. Wait a second. If he was bothered about Hilde, maybe I have a chance after all. Duo�s mind whispered.

�Oh, come on! Everyone knows your trying to get in each other�s pants!� Heero said in an exasperated tone. Duo was about ready to say something back when he realized something else. Hey, he actually sounded human! His voice had some emotion in it, even if he just sounds pissed off!

�I am not! I just-�

�Oh, forget it. I�m madly in love with Relena Peacecraft. I can�t get her off my mind! Happy?� Heero hissed sarcastically before detransforming and turning on heel to head back into Preventers Headquarters, leaving everyone, including Duo, speechless at his outburst. After several seconds, Luna ran after him.

�That was a bit unexpected,� Quatre whispered to Trowa.

�That�s the understatement of the year,� Trowa whispered back turning to face the small blonde. Leave it to his angel to get worried over the smallest things. �You know, you look really cute in that skirt,� Trowa murmured wickedly. Quatre blushed as Trowa hustled him up to their room. �Now, let�s see how hard it is to get that thing off you.�

�Trowa!� Trowa brought his lips down to Quatre�s, silencing him as he pulled the door to their room shut. Neither of them emerged until morning, but plenty of noise came from inside the room.
