Woah, another ficcy by me so soon ^_^ Just a little something that popped into my head today, actually. Hope you enjoy. As always, I don't own, though I wish I did. Just borrowed them to play with.

Crossover: Gundam Wing/Ronin Warriors

The Sneeze Factor

By: Misako Hashiba

The day had started out so beautifully. The sun was shining, the birds were chirping their little hearts out and Quatre's chef had made them the /perfect/ picnic lunch. Duo sighed happily at the thought. Heero heard and punched him in the arm without taking his eyes off the man

addressing the small, six person group.

Rubbing his arm and bringing his focus back to the front, Duo couldn't help but think nasty thought about the man. After all, he thought. he did ruin our picnic. The man, of course, being the infamous Dr. J. During the relaxing, kick back and nap part of the picnic, Dr. J had shown up, yelled at them all, then herded them back and into the nearby laboratory. I wish he'd get this over with so I can get back to relaxing. Duo's eyes started falling shut as the peaceful and highly enjoyable thought of sleeping worked its pleasing magic on his mind.

"Duo! Pay attention!"

Duo's eyes flew open at the unexpected yell. "Who what where when wh-OW!" He turned to glare at Heero, who had punched his arm again. "What the hell was that for?"

"You were supposed to pay attention."

"Gee, thanks." He rolled his eyes and once again gave his attention to Dr. J.

Dr. J, in turn, gave Duo a hard, steady gaze. Once he was sure he had the boy's full attention, he continued with his speech. "That is why we made this device. However, we do not know if it works properly yet. So you're job is to get the device over to the main laboratory, where the testing will take place."

"What's it do?"

"Duo, if you had been paying attention like you should have been, you would know the answer to that." Quatre told him.

"Fine." He bent forward to closer inspect the device. "How's it work, then?"

Dr. J's eyes -well, if they could, they would have- lit up. "I'm glad you asked. It's activated by-Whoops!" In his movements, Dr. J accidently brushed a rather large amount of dust off the counter the device was sitting on, straight into Duo's face only inches away. "My, that's a lot of dust..."

Duo pulled back, face contorting into strange expressions as his allergy kicked in. Knowing full well what was about to happen, all other occupants of the room stood as far back as they could get. Unfortunately, the room they were in wasn't very large. So, when Duo finally did sneeze, he head jerked back, causing his braid to fly up and hit Wufei in the nose, making him sneeze and knock into a vase, shaking a vast amount of pollen onto Relena, who sneezed as well, and accidently pushed a button on the device.

Trowa, Heero, Quatre and Dr. J all watched as the machine emitted a piercing white light that engulfed the entire room. Once the light died down, the four looked over at their companions. Duo, Wufei and Relena were standing statue still and staring, blankly, off into space. Quatre waved his hand in front of each of their faces, but didn't get a single response.

"What...happened to them?" He asked, very much concerned.

Dr. J studied the three zombies, then looked at the machine. "Hm...seems that 1. their sneezing activated the device and 2. Miss Relena pushed the 'teleport soul' button."

"Tele...port soul?" Trowa's brow furrowed in confusion.

"Their souls must have been teleported to another place, instead of them

personally." Heero turned from his companions to Dr. J. "Is there any way of reversing

this effect?"

"I haven't the slightest" he replied, a little too cheerfully. "We haven't gotten that far yet, remember?"

"Crap." Trowa muttered.

Quatre nodded in agreement. Just how were they going to help their friends?

"YULIE! How many times have I told you not to run in the house?!" Mia yelled as she chased the small, nine year old boy about her two-story mansion.

Yulie didn't stop...until he ran smack dab into Rowen, who was reading and walking at the same time. "Oof!" Yulie landed on his butt.

Rowen gasped in surprise and dropped his book...right onto his foot. "OW!" He grasped his foot and began hopping up and down in small circles.

"Sorry Rowen. I didn't mean to run into you." Yulie gave him his best watery puppy dog eyes.

"Aww...it's ok, Yulie. Just please be more careful next time."

"Ok!" He smiled happily.

Mia glared at Yulie a moment before turning the glare onto Rowen. "The same could be said for you Rowen Hashiba! You of all people should know that walking while reading is just as bad as running in the house."

Rowen hung his head. Mumbling an apology, he picked up his book and quickly made his way outside. After the door shut, Mia turned back to Yulie.

"As for you young man, you should be in bed, resting."

"Aw, Mia, I feel fine! Can't I go out and play? Please??" He tried his puppy eyes on her.

"No. *sigh* Yulie, you are getting over a cold. You can not go running around the house! You'll just make it worse. Now please go back upstairs and rest." She pointed to the stairs for emphasis.

"Ok, ok." Yulie started for the stairs. About half way up, he paused as a giant sneeze overcame him and a bright white light surrounded the area.

In a little secluded clearing, in the forest near the lake that resided on the Koji estate, Sage sat in deep meditation. He had been having weird dreams for the last three nights, so he had come here to try to find the answer to why. So far, he hadn't gotten even a minuscule drop of information and he'd been out here for nearly four hours!

Looks like I'll have to probe deeper, he thought. Taking in a deep breath, he let it out as slowly and noiselessly as possible. Once finished, he cleared his mind and jumped back into his subconscious. Unbeknownst to him, a small bird suddenly took off from a branch on the tree he was sitting under and one of its feathers drifted gracefully down to brush against his nose and land in his lap. A few seconds later, he sneezed. He never did notice the bright white light as it suddenly appeared around him.

Jeeze, I can't believe how dusty this stupid place is! Don't these idiots ever clean up? Kayura mentally shot daggers at each of the four warlords, none of whom were present. They're the reason why she's here doing all the cleaning while they just lounge around on their asses all day. Oh how she wished she could get back at them.

"How rude! I am not their damn maid! They make a huge mess and expect me to

clean it up, just because I'm the only female around here! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!" Pretending a rather dusty table was Sekhmet, he was the one who usually left the biggest messes, she attacked it furiously with her peacock feathered duster.

That, however, turned out to be a bit of a mistake. The more she imagined she was killing Sekhmet, the harder she dusted. The harder she dusted, the more dust that was brought up. The more dust that was brought up, the more it triggered her dust related allergy. She smartly stopped dusting and let out an extremely loud "AAACHOOOOOOOO!!!!!" The last thing she saw, was a brilliant white light as it engulfed her.
