merith asked me for the boys at an Easter Egg hunt- complete with the bunny. Now, every year my school has an egg hunt just for the staff. If you don't think adults could get competitive over small plastic eggs- then you haven't seen the egg hunt at my work. It doesn't matter how dumb the prizes are or if you find one of the eggs with 'just candy'. It's all about winning....

Sally stood in the Preventers lounge and smiled at the assembled staff. Most of them didn't notice her smile-their eyes were fixed on the person standing beside her, his fluffy white ears trembling with rage.

"I'm going to kill you for this, woman." The Easter Bunny muttered for the fifth time.

Sally ignored him. "So, it's that time of year again," she announced cheerfully. "Everyone's favorite morale building event- the Easter Egg hunt!"

That got her quite a bit of attention. "But- ma'am?" A hand in the back of the room went up. "I thought- after last year- with the injuries and the explosions and all..."

"We're doing it differently this year," she interrupted with a tight smile. "This year, we have two different levels. One for the... more overzealous players... and one for all the rest."

"Why is everyone staring at me?" Duo muttered under his breath. "Chang's the one with the bunny ears."

"Because you were the one setting the traps last year," Quatre countered.

"Hey, at least I didn't make a rookie cry like Yuy did."

"He wasn't crying," Trowa countered. "He was pleading for his life."

"So," Sally continued. "The Easter Bunny will take the... more competitive players upstairs to the storage space and explain the rules. Anyone who is interested can follow him."

"No one else is coming?" Duo glanced back at the door as they left the lounge. "But- the hunts are fun!"

"I'm not sure they appreciate our version of fun," Trowa smirked and sauntered up to the enraged Easter Bunny. "So- what does the winner of this hunt get? Your tail?"

Quatre pulled him out of the way of Chang's backhand. "What are the rules?"

"No explosives. No weapons. The lights are off to make things a little more challenging. There are a 150 eggs- you have one hour to collect as many as you can." Chang opened the door to the stairwell. "I'll be waiting here for you . Leave your weapons with me."

"Bet I'll find more than you," Duo said to Heero as they divested themselves of their weapons.

"Stakes?" Heero lifted an eyebrow.

Duo thought for a moment. Then he leaned forward and murmured something in Heero's ear.

"Deal." Heero shook his bangs out of his eyes.

"And if I win?"

"You can have the bathroom first in the morning."

"Deal."

Chang cleared his throat. "Ready?"

They lined up at the door. Wufei checked his watch. "Time begins- now!"

When they had gone, he sat up, adjusted his bunny ears and brushed himself off. He'd never admit it, but he was sort of glad that he'd volunteered to help Sally with the hunt this year, rather than participate.

Duo took a deep breath and a firmer grip on the desk. "How the hell did you manage to get seventy-five percent of the eggs?"

"Quatre and Trowa were willing to negotiate." Heero leaned forward a little and put his lips against Duo's nape. "They didn't have anything riding on the outcome after all." His fingers moved lazily over Duo's exposed skin, making his partner gasp.

"Go faster..."

Heero laughed, his breath warm against Duo's skin. "Hell no. I know you, Maxwell. Who knows when I'll get to do this again? You're harder to catch than any rabbit..."
