"Baby Series 3"

The Odd Secret

"Do you anticipate any trouble, Heero?"

Disbelieving blue eyes glanced toward the speaker and unruly chocolate hair seemed to stand on end. He hissed softly, glancing around quickly to check their surroundings.

"What are you doing here?!"

Milliardo grinned, looking sheepish and pulled the broad brimmed hat down a little more snugly. The wealth of pale blonde hair was hidden beneath the hat, its length tucked safely out of sight. He wore a great coat, plain black with black trousers and boots. Everything was just a little bit shabby, not new and not the finest quality of cloth or cut. It was a simple disguise and simplicity was often the best.

"Just checking." At the glare he shrugged. "And escaping a certain parliamentarian who has discovered his name is not on the first draft of next years honours list and that Chang will be named a Duke. He has quite the crooked nose at the moment. Heero, don't get your panties in a bunch, I will be heading back to the cage shortly."

"You should not be here at all!" Heero hissed.

"Yes, Heero, I know this, but I am about to go stir crazy. Milliardo Peacecraft might be able to grin and bear the wonders that come with being royalty, but Zechs Marquise is about to throw a fit and rip the palace apart. I thought vanishing for a while would be the lesser of evils."

"How the hell did you get out of the palace? I thought Hunter had blocked all of your bolt holes."

Zechs snickered and ice blue eyes flashed like cold gems. "He might think he has, but a man has to have the odd secret or two. Life would be no fun otherwise."

Heero sighed, running a hand through his hair. Oh he just knew what Pagan would be doing now and he was thankful he was not on duty at the palace. The man would be ripping into security for allowing Milliardo to escape the safe zone.

"Sometimes it would pay for him, and others, to remember I have another name and that the persona that goes with that name does not like to feel claustrophobic." Eyes narrowed to slits he looked out over the terminal to where the aircraft was slowly approaching the sealed walkway. "Do not allow me to disturb you from concentrating on what is going on down there. The Chang situation takes precedence."

"You need to go back."

"And I will, I just want to see the Elder's reaction to Chang."

Heero grunted. "Likely he will not be too pleased with Chang wearing the insignia of Sanc. Tying himself to the regime here is something I doubt the Elder would have anticipated."

Milliardo could only agree with that. Wu Fei had chosen to attend the arrival dressed as the King's official liaison to parliament, the jewelled brooch and the white, purple edged sash of his office was quite the statement to anyone with political savvy.
