Chapter3: Disappearing Acts
“That new boy, the Chinese one…he hasn’t been here.”
“Yeah, he was here last week….”
“Um. But he hasn’t been here all week. And the other four new boys all seem like they aren’t associating with each other that much.”
“Except Duo and Heero.”
“Yes, but…I wonder what’s going on?”
You continued your walk down the hallway, listening to the gossip. You were surprised your three friends hadn’t hounded you about Wufei’s disappearance yet. Then again, Helena’s been out for the past few days, and she’s the leader in the “I-must-know-everything” department. But –and you had to admit- it did seem a little…strange.
When the five boys first came, they all hung out with each other and stayed close to one another.
After a few weeks, they started distancing themselves from not only everyone in the school, but each other as well.
And now, the chauvinist was missing.
“Huh,” you muttered quietly to yourself. “These new boys sure are weird. Wait ‘til Helena hears about this.”
~*~
“They’re dropping like frikin’ poisoned rats!”
“Helena….”
“And, of course, the stupid one’s still here.”
“Helenaaa~….”
“But I supposed I should count my blessings, ‘cause my sexay sex god is still here….”
“HELENA!”
“WHAT?!”
“SHUT UP BOTH OF YOU!” Both you and the raven-haired loudmouth shut your traps at Tatum’s annoyed, stern outburst. “Thank you. Now, yes, I agree that every other week since Wufei left, another of the five left. Which means, next week, Duo or Heero will be leaving, and then two weeks after that, the remaining one will leave as well.”
“That’s IF the pattern continues,” you added. Tate nodded, curly brown hair bouncing in time with her movements.
“…but why are they leaving?” Fayelinn asked curiously. “They just, like…disappeared.”
“I’m curious about this too,” Helena added, her tone serious. “It’s just really…weird. And suspicious.”
“…I don’t know, girls,” you started, getting all three of your friends’ attentions, “but I’m sure as hell gonna try to find out.”

“Hey, Duo!” you called after the brunette after class was over, jogging to catch up with him and Heero, both having shot out the door as soon as the bell rang. They stopped, Heero turning halfway while Duo turned fully, a cheerful grin spreading across his face.
“Yeah Name? What is it?” he asked as you approached him.
You stopped in front of him, smiling sweetly, tone innocent as you said, “Nice disappearing acts your friends are pulling. Where’d they go?”
The braided-haired boy was caught off-guard by the question, eves widening slightly as he stuttered. “W-well…uh…um—”
“Wufei is away on family issues. Quatre is out on business, and Trowa is also dealing with family problems,” Heero answered tonelessly for his fumbling friend.
“…that’s all?” you asked, sweet smile still on your face, tone still that of innocent curiosity.
“Yup, that’s it!” Duo chirped.
“Oh, okay. Tell Quatre not to work himself too hard, and give the other two my regards, then,” you chirped merrily. Both brunettes nodded before Duo waved, and they both walked off. You watched after them, a frown forming on your features as you chewed on your bottom lip in thought.
‘They’re hiding something, I know it,’ you thought, before smirking lightly. ‘Well, two can play at that game. I’ll find out what they’re doing. It’s gotta be something dangerous, I know it.’ And with that, you turned, heading towards the front of the school to tell your friends of your findings.
