"Treize's Crazy Not Drugged Up Trip"
Colonel Treize was a very dignified man. No one could argue with that.
His belt always matched his shoes, and he never changed his facial expression.
He was a very, very dignified man. So dignified, in fact, that it caused
Lady Une to change sexes at the mere mention of his name.
Lady Une, trying to suck up, helped Treize out of his plane. Naturally,
Treize struck a pose at the top of the landing.
“Mr. Treize,” Lady Une muttered, trying to rub against him, “I have your
bath prepared for you sir.” She turned and whispered, “And Puddles T. Duck
has anxiously awaited your arrival as well.”
Treize nodded neutrally. “Thank you, Lady Une.” he tried to toss his cape
over his shoulder elegantly, but instead it flipped over his head, simultaneously
destroying his carefully styled hair.
“Ack!” Treize cried, tripping forward.
Lady
tried to catch him, but became so flustered at the thought of touching
him that she changed sexes three times and then dissolved into a fit of
mannish giggles.
Treize lurched forwards, trying to lean back to stop himself, but instead
he lost his balance and toppled down the remaining steps, hitting his pretty
little head on the bottom.
“Your Excellency!” Lady Une sobbed, rushing to his side. “Oh no! Are you
all right?!”
Treize was out cold.
“What have I done?! How can I live with myself?!” she cried.
Treize groaned and shook his head.
“Ah! You’re still alive! Thanks be!” she cried happily, hugging and efficiently
smothering him.
“Umo ehropdi hoen!” he gasped.
“Oh! Your Excellency! You’re speaking gibberish!” she sobbed.
Treize shook his head. “Hey, chick! Get off me!”
Lady Une frowned and looked down at her love. “Sir?”
He shook his head again. “How’s a guy to breathe? Back off!”
She blushed. “Yessir. Okay sir.” She stepped back. “I’m so sorry Your Excellency.
I hope you are well?”
“Yeah, I’m fine,” he replied testily, standing, “but I’m really hungry.
Go make yourself useful and get me a pizza or something.” he looked down.
“What the hell am I wearing? My fraternity brothers will really laugh it
up….”
“Sir? Fraternity brothers?”
He nodded slowly. “Yeah…you a little slow or what? Who are you?”
“You don’t remember me?” she gasped, a tear escaping one eye. “Oh. I’m
Lady Une, you’re…” She was tempted to say ‘wife’ but was afraid of the
consequences when Treize returned to himself, “assistant, sir. You fell
down the stairs. Are you okay? You seem to have lost you memory.”
“I haven’t lost my memory! I know exactly who I am- I’m Teddy ‘the Terminator’
Kushrenada. Someone get me some jeans or something.”
“Jeans? Oh, yessir. I’ll get you some jeans….why don’t you go into your
office. It’s the first one on the right. Just stay in there and…don’t talk
to anyone, okay?”
He shrugged. “Whatever. And the pizza. Don’t forget the pizza.”
She groaned. “Yes, your Excellency.”
“It’s all Doctor J’s fault,” Heero griped, struggling against his bonds.
“If he hadn’t creeped me out with all that clicking, I could have saved
you guys.”
Duo shuddered. “Doctor J….ugh….”
Lieutenant Nikol hissed, “Shut up! Stop talking! Colonel Treize will be
here soon. Then we’ll find out what you’re really doing with the colonies!”
“You’re weak!” WuFei snapped.
“WuFei,” Quatre scolded, trying to nurse his black eye, “insults will only
hurt his self-esteem. Let’s be nice.”
“Bite me,” he muttered. “You’re just lucky I don’t have Nataku.”
“I wonder how they tracked me down at the circus,” Trowa muttered, frowning
down at his costume. “I feel really stupid.”
WuFei closed his eyes. “I can’t even look at you.”
“Scared of clowns?” Duo challenged.
“Shut up, weakling!” WuFei hissed back. “They’re eerie….that’s all.”
“Right,” Duo said with a grin.
“I said shut up!” Nikol yelled.
“Oh, what’re you gonna do? Shoot us? You can’t until Treize talks to us,”
Duo retorted.
Nikol slapped him upside the head.
“I can do that,” Nikol said confidently.
“Ow…,” Duo complained.
“Hey, back off! WuFei will get you!” WuFei challenged.
The pilots sighed.
The door opened and Lady Une entered.
“Oh no,” Trowa muttered, “it’s the crazy woman.”
She narrowed her eyes. “As per Colonel Treize’s orders….Do any of you have
a reason to party?”
They stared back in confusion.
“Well,” Quatre began hesitantly, “Tomorrow’s WuFei’s birthday.”
The soldiers surrounding the group began to laugh.
WuFei kicked Quatre.
“Ow..,” Quatre whined. “Well it is….”
“Wonderful,” Une answered. “Then we’re going to celebrate WuFei’s birthday.”
The guards snickered.
“Guards, you go out and get party hats and cake and…,” she sighed, “…and
a stripper. And some kind of game, like pin the tail on the donkey or something.”
Wufei’s face seemed to be getting redder.
“And don’t forget gifts for him,” she continued. The guards continued to
laugh. She frowned. “What’re you waiting for? That’s Treize’s orders, you
fools! Hurry up and get the things His Excellency requires!”
They exchanged confused looks for a moment, then walked out of the room
with confused mumbles.
She growled to the pilots, “And you’d better all have a real good time.”
“Colonel Une?” Trowa muttered in confusion.
“No…I’m no longer a Colonel,” she said with a blush. “I’m…Chief Enforcer.”
“Chief Enforcer?” Heero murmured. “Of what?”
“Partyingdown,” she muttered quickly, before turning and leaving.
Once they were alone, Duo murmured, “Hey at least the guards left…..hey….did
she say partying down?”
Lieutenant Colonel Zechs entered Treize’s office. “Your Excellency? You
called for me?”
Treize nodded and grinned. “Even taller in person…yum…”
“Your Excellency?”
“Uh…shut the door, what was your name? Oh right.” He grinned. “Zechs.”
He winked.
Zechs frowned. “S-sir?”
Treize nodded slowly. It was good to be important.
The soldiers returned with the items and glared at WuFei. WuFei glared
back.
“Pin the explosives on the Gundam,” Lady Une noted upon reading the package.
“Interesting…”
“Lieutenant Nikol printed it off his computer,” an ensign said proudly.
“I hope you didn’t poison the cake,” Lady Une continued, “Treize doesn’t
want them dead.”
There were assorted mumbles and the cake ended up in the garbage.
“I’ll bake some cupcakes,” another ensign offered.
“You do that. And don’t poison them this time. Where’s the stripper?”
“We’ve had several offers, including Relena Peacecraft, but we’ve settled
on Hilde.”
“Hilde!” Duo cried in horror. “No! She’s a man!”
Lietenant Nikol grimaced. “A man! I told the yellow pages they should include
photos!”
“Me too!” WuFei agreed. “What happens if you pick an ugly one?”
“We’ll just tell her to leave when she gets here,” Lady Une replied with
a sigh. “Party hats?”
Lietenant Nikol grinned. “Clowns.”
WuFei cried, “No! C’mon! That’s just mean! It’s supposed to be my birthday!”
Lady shrugged and began strapping the hats onto the various Gundam pilots.
“You too,” she told the men. “This is supposed to be a party. We must all
participate. According to Treize, we’re all fellow ‘homies’ today.” She
pointed to her ‘Hello My Name is Anne’ nametag. “I made one for each of
you. File by the table and pick up your tag.”
The men groaned and shuffled over to the table. Une slapped the name tags
onto the pilots.
“Hey! You spelled my name wrong,” Quatre moaned. He turned to WuFei. “Hello
Chang!”
“It’s WuFei, fruit!” WuFei snapped. “Do I have to stay chained down for
my party?”
“You may stand for the games, but your fellow homies are armed so don’t
try anything,” ‘Anne’ warned.
Lietenant Nikol (who’s tag read ‘Alfonse’) approached Lady Une. “I tried
to find the JayZee CD. I couldn’t find it. I…I searched through my own
CD collection and the best I could find was ‘Barry Manillo’.”
“Barry Manillo! I hate him!” WuFei whined. “This is the worst birthday
ever!”
“Don’t insult Lady Une’s party!” Nikol ordered.
“Bite me, Alfonse!” WuFei snapped.
“Alright, everyone stand up! We’re playing musical chairs,” Une snarled,
undoing Duo’s handcuffs.
“Sorry WuFei,” Une shrugged, “You’re out.”
“Weak woman!” He squinted, “ ‘Jonothan’ cheated! That chair was mine!”
Lady shrugged and WuFei scowled. He joined Duo and Trowa on the sidelines.
“Come on, Quatre!” Duo called. “Beat those losers!”
“Don’t put your money on Quatre,” WuFei scoffed, “at least bet on Heero.”
“Beat their butts, Quatre!” Duo continued to call.
Quatre smiled. “C’mon guys. Be fair. It doesn’t matter who wins. As long
as we have fun.”
“Give me a Q!” Duo continued.
Trowa banged his head against the wall.
“I think I’ll join you, Trowa,” WuFei groaned. “C’mon, Heero! Cheat or
something!”
Heero shrugged. The music started.
“Oh no! Not Mandy!” WuFei cried in horror, covering his ears.
Six Oz soldiers, Quatre, and Heero began circling around the chairs. The
music stopped. Quatre took a seat. Heero knocked a soldier unconscious
and took his seat.
“Hey!” Nikol shouted, “Heero cheated.”
Heero said nothing.
“Did not!” Duo said defensively, “That soldier passed out on his own!”
Nikol growled.
“Just start the music,” Duo hooted.
“No….,” moaned WuFei, banging his head.
The music started. Another soldier passed out.
Nikol shot Duo a look.
“Not my fault you hired such wussy soldiers,” Duo continued with a grin.
“Give me an ‘H’!”
“Can we play a game that doesn’t involve music?” WuFei whined.
The music started.
“Heero, you’re out!” Lady said.
Heero growled at the soldier in the chair.
“Sleep with the lights on, ‘Horatio’,” Heero muttered. He leaned down.
“I will destroy you.”
Horatio shivered.
Heero joined the losers circle.
“Who’s your money on?” Duo asked WuFei knowingly. “C’mon Quatre!”
“He can’t do it. He’ll probably offer the other guy the chair,” WuFei snorted.
The music started. An Oz soldier lost.
“Give me a ‘Q’! Give me an ‘A’!”
“That’s ‘U’,” Quatre corrected.
Duo blushed. “I read it off the nametag…”
The music started and another Oz soldier left.
“C’mon Sky!” Nikol called.
“C’mon Quatre!” Duo called louder.
“Sky!”
“Quatre!”
“You’re both losers!” WuFei hooted.
“Shut up, Chang!” Duo and Nikol said in unison.
The music started.
The music stopped.
Duo lept into the air. “Yeah! Yeah Quatre! Told you Quatre would win! Oh
yeah! Gundams 10,000 Oz 0!”
“Hey, we beat Earth Sphere Alliance!” Nikol snapped.
“They sucked anyway!”
“Oh yeah! We’ll beat the crap out of you in pin the explosives on the Gundam!
We do that all the time!”
“Treize Crazy Not-Drugged-Up Trip” (cont)
Zechs laughed. “You know, Teddy, you may have lost your dignity and my
respect for you, but I do like you better this way. Your pacifist ideas
are perfectly in sync with mine.”
Treize chuckled. “Right! Party on, man!” he went to kiss Zechs, but he
was so drunk he lost his balance and fell off the couch, smacking his head
on the coffee table.
“Teddy! Teddy!” Zechs cried, shaking him. “Are you okay?”
Treize groaned and shook his head. “What did you call me, Lietenant Zechs?”
“Are you okay?” Zechs pressed.
“As okay as one can be in a time of war. War is like the air, in that we
need it, but it is also not like war as in it’s not a gas…..but it should
be with people….”
“Oh no!” Zechs cried, “you’re back!”
“Zechs, where’s your shirt?” Treize muttered. “That is not proper attire
to attend to your superior officer.”
Zechs sighed. “No sir.”
Treize flipped on his television.
“And many rejoice today as OZ surrenders to the Earth Sphere Alliance!
The war is over, and the Earth Sphere Alliance is reinstating martial law
on all colonies! Crushing peace has once again descended!”
Treize’s jaw hung open.
Epilogue
Treize and OZ reinstated the war the next day, once the Gundams were out of harm’s way. However, many of their soldiers, including all in attendance of WuFei’s birthday, deserted soon after. The party was regarded as the ‘most rockin’ party of the year’ even without a stripper.
The Gundams continued to fight OZ, but WuFei held onto the pink bunny stuffed animal he received from Cecil and named it ‘WuChan’.
