Before Neo Gundam Wing - Side Story -
Quatre's life (if you want to call it that...)
***

It's a normal day for the blonde ex-gundam pilot of SandRock Kai. That's if you call sitting on your ass all day reading over documents (more like staring at them) and going to meetings every so often "normal."  While Quatre stared at the paper in front of him, Iria enters the room. After about two minutes of silence, Iria starts to cough a bit to grab Quatre's attention.

Quatre:  Oh hi, Iria... What are you doing here?
Iria:  Well Quatre I have to talk to you about 'things'...
Quatre:  Oh well, I'm a bit busy at the moment, can it wait a little later?
Iria:  NO! I mean no, Quatre.. ^^;
Quatre:  It's that important? Well ok tell me.
Iria:  Quatre in order for you to fully inherit Winner fortune... You have to get married before  your twentieth birthday...
Quatre:  *gulp*...Really?
Iria:  Yeah I'm afraid so...
Quatre:  But but I don't like any girls!
Iria:  *taking the last statement a bit wrong* Oh Quatre! I knew you and Trowa were good friends, but this?!?
Quatre:  Eh??? NO! I'm not that way! I didn't even mean it that way! I meant I don't have any girlfriends... nor do I know any girl that would want to marry me...
Iria:  Oh ok! ^^ Well you see we... Well, more like the other girls, picked a girl out for you already! But, if you don't want to marry her, you better find some girl really fast.. I mean your birthday isn't that far away from now...
Quatre:  Well, if you already have a girl picked out for me, I'm sure I don't have to worry about it! Besides she's probably very nice...
Iria:  *sweatdrop* Heh... Heh.. Heh...She was so anxious to see you she decided to drop by... 
Quatre:  Really? Well let her in! I'd hate to keep her waiting.
Iria:  Uhh... Are you sure? I mean you said yourself that you were really busy...
Quatre:  Nah.. I need a break anyways. 
Iria:  Well umm ok... *goes toward the door and opens it* Pixie! Quatre says you can come in...
Quatre:  That's a nice name..

Suddenly the ground starts to shake a bit and Quatre looks at the glass of water on his desk that's about to fall off (Note: Think of a scene from The Lost World or Jurassic Park...). Quatre starts to sweatdrop a bit. Then out of no where the door slams open to revile a really ugly fat elephant-errr-woman! The errrm woman stomps all the way over to Quatre's desk and gives him a big hug...

Pixie:  QUARTO!
Quatre:  *thinking* Can't...Breath.... *out loud* My.. .Name's Quatre...
Pixy:  Oh Quarto you can call me sexy!
Quatre:  *thinking* That's a VERY disturbing thought... *out loud* Uhh... Yeah... Can... You let... GO!
Pixie:  I'll never let go of my Quarto!
Quatre:  It's QUATRE!
Iria:  Uh... I don't think Quatre can breath... *looks at Quatre as he starts to turn a blue color*
Pixie:  Really? Then I'll give him mouth to mouth! 
Quatre:  *thinking* Uhh... no! *out loud* That's... really... not...necessary! *gives the save me look to Iria*
Iria:  Umm.. You know Pixie Quatre's a bit busy so he needs to get back to work.
Pixie:  I'll see my Quarto in bed right?!?
Quatre:  WHAT?!?
Iria:  Uh... Not yet!
Pixie:  Darn... *lets go of Quatre* I see you later Quarto! *kisses Quatre and stomps/skips happily out the door*
Iria:  So? How do you feel?
Quatre:  I feel like I need a very very cold shower and I reeeeeally need to wash my mouth out!
Iria:  That's not what I meant! I was talking about the marriage!
Quatre:  ANYTHING BUT HER! PLEASE?!??!
Iria:  Well I leave that task up to you. If you don't want to marry that... Thing... Then you better hurry up and find a girl that you like.
Quatre:  ...But there aren't any girls I like...
Iria:  What about Trowa's sister?
Quatre:  OH YEAH! Wait... She still hates me for taking Trowa to battle...
Iria:  ...What about Wufei's sister?
Quatre:  ...Wufei would chop my head off... Not to mention Ashtear isn't really my type...
Iria:  Hmmm....How about Silvia Noventa...?
Quatre:  *gives her an odd glare* Her?!? I thought she got married to a Sweeper...
Iria:  Oh...Yeah... Well what other girls do you know that are your age and aren't married?
Quatre:  Ummm to tell the truth none...
Iria:  *sigh* Well maybe it won't be that bad with Pixie...
Quatre:  *shudder* ...Uhhh... I'm gonna go talk to Duo...
Iria:  I thought you were busy!?!
Quatre:  Not now... Besides Duo would should some good advice on girls!*runs out the door*
Iria:  ...Why does he always do that?

An hour and Hilde's large order of food later, Duo and Quatre had a little discussion...

Duo:  Soooo... You gotta get hitched before your birthday and if you don't, you're gonna be livin' on the streets... And if you don't find a girl, you're gonna end up marryin'... *looks at the picture of Pixie* That thing...Man, you got such a loving family!
Quatre:  I know... The only thing is I really don't like any girls and pretty much everyone's already married...
Duo:  That is why you decided to get advice from the... GOD OF LOVE!
Quatre:  I thought it was 'Death'...
Duo:  ...AHEM... Anyways... You need to get a chick. I am the man to help you! Now, tell me who you're interested in!
Quatre:  I told you, no one...
Duo:  Quatre, Quatre, Quatre... There's gotta be some chick out there your interested in... Unless you like guys...
Quatre:  ....WHY DOES EVERYONE THINK I'M FRUITY?!?!
Duo:  The proper term is 'gay'.
Quatre:  DUO! 
Duo:  Ok... Geez... So any girl you like?
Quatre:  ...I told you before Duo... No.
Duo:  Reeeeeeally...*gives a big grin*
Quatre:  What?
Duo:  Come on! I can see your hidin it from me! So who is it?
Quatre:  ...No one...
Duo:  You're turnin' red, man!
Quatre:  I AM NOT!
Duo:  Quatre likes a girl! Quatre likes a girl!
Quatre:  Would you please stop making a big deal out of it? You sound like a first grader!
Duo:  Not until you tell me who the lucky chick is!
Quatre:  Do you really want to know...?
Duo:  Yeah! I'm your friend! You're gonna have to tell me sooner or later...
Quatre:  Well...

Go to a scene outside the Maxwell home where the birds are tweeting. Suddenly, a scream comes out from the house.

Duo:  YOU LIKE THAT...THAT...COCKROACH?!?!
Quatre:  ...That's really not a nice thing to say Duo...
Duo:  In a case like this, it is!
Quatre:  ...So... you like Hilde and Heero always talks about how much of a flat chest she has...
Duo:  ...Damn you Heero... Well, that's different!
Quatre:  How?
Duo:  Number one, Hilde's actually HUMAN!!!
Hilde:  What's all the screaming about?
Duo:  Quatre's flipped!
Hilde:  ....?
Duo:  He likes Dorothy!
Hilde:  Awww, that's cute! You'd make a good couple!
Quatre:  Uh thanks...
Duo:  ...Hilde, baby I think you missed something... That woman is like a war crazy bitch! Not to mention she STABBED Quatre!
Hilde:  So? People change, Duo. I'm sure she has too. 
Duo:  Well, think about what their kids would look like! War crazy, innocent looking cockroaches!
Hilde:  Duo... If you're so concerned, why don't you just marry Quatre?
Duo:  ...Cause I dun swing that way Hilde...
Quatre:  I hope not...
Hilde:  I've got an idea! How about I call her invite her for a little tea and have you conveniently show up?
Quatre:  I don't know...
Duo:  YOU'RE GOING TO DO WHAT?!? Uh nuh! No way! That thing ain't commin into my house!
Hilde:  Duo...
Duo:  Hilde...
Quatre:  ...Maybe I should--
Duo:  Sit your butt back down boy! As much as I hate it... You either marry the fat thing or the cockroach, and I know you don't like the idea of ending up with the fat one... So I will go against all things holy in life and tell you to marry The Co--erm--Dorothy...
Quatre:  Really?
Duo:  It's fine with me for now. Though I wouldn't tell any of the guys about it yet.
Quatre:  Why not?
Duo:  Just don't...
Quatre:  Well if you say so...Bye Duo! Thank you Hilde...*leaves*
Duo:  I need a drink...
Hilde:  I need some food!

Quatre:  Duo really didn't help... Maybe I could talk to Heero about it, he's pretty good at solving problems like this...

Heero:  And you expect me to know what to do?
Quatre:  Maybe...
Heero:  It's simple... Commit suicide! 
Quatre:  Eh?
Heero:  Say it was some type of mission you had to go on... 
Quatre:  What? NO! That doesn't make any sense!
Heero:  If you don't do it, when you get married, you'll wish you had!
Relena:  HEEEEEERRRROOO!
Heero:  Yes, my little bowl of Cocoa Puffs?!?
Relena:  What color should the baby's room be? Pink, Red, Purple, or Green?
Heero:  ...I don't know... Why should it matter?
Relena:  Heero, you're so difficult sometimes! *looks around and sees Quatre* Hi Quatre! What color do you think it should be?
Quatre:  Uh...I don't really know... I think it should be purple... *gets death glare from Heero* But then again, green sounds like a beautiful color!
Relena:  Thanks Quatre! *looks at Heero* No thanks to you, spandex boy!
Heero:  Omae o Korosu!
Relena:  Sure... Anyway what brings you here Quatre?
Quatre:  Um I was talk to Heero about getting married...
Relena:  Really? To who?
Heero:  To the thing that stabbed him...
Quatre:  ...Dorothy...
Relena:  Really... That's sooooo cute!
Heero:  WHAT'S SO CUTE ABOUT IT?!?!
Relena:  *death glare to Heero*
Heero:  ...Mood swings...
Relena:  *thawap* Be quiet Hee-chan!
Heero:  *Death glare* Omae o Korosu...
Quatre:  Uh... I have to go. Good luck Mrs. Relena... Thanks for the help Heero.
Heero:  Just commit suicide remember that.
Quatre:  Umm.. I'll keep that in mind...
Relena:  I'll talk to Dorothy and try to get you together...
Quatre:  Umm thanks... *leaves*
Heero:  I still say he should kill himself...
Relena:  Heero!
Heero:  What?
Relena:  *sigh* That's your friend! You should be more supportive!
Heero:  He's not my friend... He's just someone I know...
Relena:  Oi... Heero...

Quatre:  *sigh* Kill myself... That's what I'll do If I end up with Pixie... Maybe I should talk to Trowa I mean he's my friend he should know what to do.

Trowa:  ...And you want me to tell you what exactly?
Quatre:  I don't know... I just don't know what to do... I mean she's nice but she's a bit ummm 'wide' if you get what I'm saying...
Trowa:  Fully... If you like Dorothy I think you should just tell her. If she doesn't feel the same then prepare to spend the rest of your life with the human elephant... I mean I'm sure you'll have...tons of kids....
Quatre:  *looks at Trowa* You aren't serious are you?
Trowa:  Completely not...
Quatre:  Thanks... So how are you and Jade?
Trowa:  Ok... 
Quatre:  That's good. *sigh* At least you can to tell her you love her...
Trowa:  Umm I still can't do that... Besides I think Duo's stalking me or something... *outside the window Duo's in a tree with binoculars* 
Quatre:  *looks out the window and sees nothing* 
Trowa:  .... It's really bad not being able to know that you have... *turns to the window and opens it* PRIVACY! *watches Duo fall out of the tree* *smile* Anyways... Like I said go for it if she doesn't like you live with what you're going to get...
Quatre:  *looks out the window and watches Duo get up slowly* ...Yeah...
Duo:  Dun worry about me! I'm ok! Damnit I think I broke my back this time...
Quatre:  Well I better go.
Trowa:  Bye oh and on your way out give this to Duo... *hands him an envelope*
Quatre:  Ok... Bye Trowa.
Trowa:  Bye. 
Quatre:  *walks out the door and finds Duo immediately* Trowa told me to give this to you.
Duo:  ...Thanks... Good luck Quatre!
Quatre:  Thank you, Duo.
Duo:  *opens the envelope and starts reading* Ha...Ha...Ha... I got you... ? What the heck?
Trowa:  *dumps some glue and feathers on Duo* I got you.
Duo:  *looks up* You just wait Trowa! This means WAR!
Trowa:  Bring it on.
Duo:  I WILL! *walks off*

Quatre:  *turns around and sees Duo* ...I think they're beginning to get along... Let's see Trowa and Duo told me to go on and ask and Heero told me to kill myself... I guess this means I have to ask Wufei... as much as I really don't want to... *stomach rumbles* ...I'm hungry...

Wufei:  SIMPLE! Go to that onna and tell her to marry you and if she doesn't then you will make her!
Quatre:  But that's not really nice....
Wufei:  So? She's an onna! And like all onnas she is also weak!
Quatre:  ...I don't know about that...
Wufei:  Are you doubting my judgment?
Quatre:  Huh? No! Of course not! I think you have a right to your opinion even if it is a bit demented...
Wufei:  Excuse me?
Quatre:  I mean it's a very good idea!
Wufei:  I thought so! You know why? Because I am WUFEI! And what I say is right!
Sally:  SHUT UP WUFEI!
Wufei:  Onna why aren't you cooking my dinner?
Sally:  Oh you want dinner?
Wufei:  Yes!
Sally:  Ha! Make your own!
Wufei:  ...? No, no onna it suppose to go this way... I say make my dinner and you make it.
Sally:  *ignores that* Hello Quatre would you like something to eat?
Quatre:  Well I am a bit hungry.
Sally:  Good because I made a lot and since my Wubear is being Mr. Grumpy today I'll give you his share.
Quatre:  I don't know about that I mean what about--
Sally:  Don't worry Wufei is strong and mighty! He can make his own food.
Quatre:  Well... ok.
Wufei:  Damn pregnant women! What an injustice!
Sally:  Quiet, Wufei!

An hour later...

Sally:  So that's what you were talking to Wufei about. If anything you should have came to me for advice instead of him.
Quatre:  Yeah I guess so. *watches Wufei put the rice on fire* ...Maybe you should help Wufei...
Sally:  ...*looks at Wufei* Nah he can handle it. 
Quatre:  So are you ok?
Sally:  Oh me? Yeah. Wufei and I are having one of those little fights over what the baby's going to be... *whisper* If you ask me it's a boy but Wufei say's it's probably going to be a girl. *raises her voice back up* But I'm sure you're going to have lots of kids when you get married!
Quatre:  ...*sweatdrop* Heh... No I promised myself a long time ago that I wasn't going to have more then maybe two...
Sally:  And what if they're girls?
Quatre:  Well I guess they'll get along with their aunts... All twenty-nine of them... I thought you two were going to live in China.
Sally:  Yeah we're still packing that's why we still live in this crummy apartment.
Quatre:  Oh...
Sally:  It must be really hard for you to be forced into marrying so quickly.
Quatre:  No not really... *watches Wufei trying to put out the fires he made* I was thinking about it awhile ago I just didn't want to then.
Sally:  Well I hope you ask her before time's up.
Quatre:  Yeah. Anyways I must be going tell Wufei I said good luck and thank you for the meal. 
Sally:  My pleasure!
Quatre:  Oh.. Could you tell me what time it is?
Sally:  ... Almost three.
Quatre:  Thanks again. Bye.
Sally:  Bye. *looks behind her at the disaster Wufei made*.... Wufei...
Wufei:  What onna?!?
Sally:  I would hope you're going to be the one cleaning that mess you made...
Wufei:  Injustice...
Sally:  Did you manage to make something yet?
Wufei:  *stare* No
Sally:  Go in the fridge on the bottom left side and you'll find some leftovers from last night. *turns on the TV* But you can only have them after you clean up the kitchen!
Wufei:  WHAT?!?!?

Quatre starts walking toward the Catalonia Estate since he wasn't in any hurry to get there when he ran into a blonde boy in his late teens.

Boy:  Whoa! Ummm...Quatre! Yeah Quatre!
Quatre:  Do I know you?
Boy:  No not really but you're gonna see....ummm... Dorothy right?!?
Quatre:  Yeah... How'd you know?
Boy:  Umm... A good guess. Look If anything don't screw it up! 
Quatre:  What do you mean?!
Boy:  Look I know about you guys little thing you've been goin out with her she like you you guys act like you have nothing going on in public especially with you're friends. So now that you're being forced into this little marriage thing you're goin to pop the question!
Quatre:  H-h-how'd you know about that?!?
Boy:  Ummmmmm.... A bird told me?
Quatre:  Must of been one talkative bird.
Boy:  Look I don't have time for you're sarcasm! Just don't fuck it up! Oh yeah and maybe this might help. *gives him a small box*
Quatre:  Huh...? Wh--
Boy:  Don't ask just go.
Quatre:  O-ok.... *continues walking*
Boy:  HURRY UP! *watches Quatre start to run* *sigh* Don't mess this up like you did
originally.

Quatre continues running even after passing the gates and the guards and didn't stop until he got to the door to a room. Quatre stood there for a minute and heard laughing and then some talking after.

Relena:  He did that for real?!?
Dorothy:  Yeah he fell into the lake then pretended he was drowning. So I went in to save him.
Relena:  Who would've thought Quatre would do something like that?
Dorothy:  Obviously no one would.

Without knowing it while Quatre was trying to hear the two women talking he accidentally turned the door knob and fell in. 

Relena:  *blink*...*blink*
Dorothy:  ...
Quatre:  Uh...*thinks up a really good excuse* *puts his hand behind his head and starts scratching his head* Umm Hi I was just coming over and I just over heard your conversation and I think I'll be going now!
Relena:  No you can stay I have to go before Heero burns down the house or decides to do something off the wall.
Dorothy:  Yeah...*still looking at Quatre who's now staring at the ground like a three year old*
Relena:  *passes by Quatre and whispers* Good luck! ^.^
Quatre:  *looks at her as if chibi-fied* Thanks... *watches her leave and close the door behind her* Whew...
Dorothy:  Are you just going to stand there or are you going to sit down?
Quatre:  Huh? Um yeah.
Dorothy:  So why did you come here? It can't be because you felt like it.
Quatre:  Maybe?
Dorothy:  *looks at the small box in his hands* Oh is that a present for me?
Quatre:  Huh?!? 
Dorothy:  *grabs it out of his hands and starts opening it* ....*looks at it for awhile*
Quatre:  You know I really have no clue --
Dorothy:  You know if I were a very stupid blonde I would say that this is a present but unfortunately I'm not so I'll say it's an engagement ring!
Quatre:  *looks at her* Uh... really?!? I mean yeah it is! What else would it be?!?
Dorothy:  Since it is I'll say yes!
Quatre:  For what?
Dorothy:  Yes I'll marry you! Why else would you get this for me?
Quatre:  To tell the truth I have no clue....*hears a gun shot* What was that?!
Dorothy:  ...I don't know... *hears five more go off* It could be the wind...
Quatre:  *looks around* ... I guess... *listens for little longer and hears nothing* I guess it doesn't matter now... *thinking* Though I would like to know what that was all about...

Meanwhile, in the shadows the same boy looks at the two.

Boy:  Man... I get shot at left and right... *sigh* Well I hope this will help us a bit. I hope the others are done. Cause when I get home I'm gonna make a big sandwich.... *sighs once more and leaves*

Quatre never found out who the young man was or what the gun fire was for. But he did get married to Dorothy even if that did piss off most his sisters after they found out she was the one that stabbed him. All the pilots lived happily until they had kids... And that's another story...
-----------------
