Moulin Rouge fusion Teaser
*looks around warily* I don't know... I've been debating ever since I started the fic this morning if I ought to post a teaser for it or not... I have about five and a half pages done, now. I'm not too far into the plot, but enough that I've gotten myself into writing some very odd scenes.
Well, my muses beat me into submission and I'm committing myself by posting a teaser. I'll give out the main casting just so you know:
Christian: Treize
Satine: Zechs
Ziddler: Dorothy *snicker*
the Duke ((Duchess)): Noin
Marie: Sally
Argentinian: Heero *snickering*
Toulous: Duo
So what you need to know.... I'm following the Moulin Rouge plotline, but I'll be adding extra scenes and taking some things out... totally AU for Gundam Wing. Um.... I think that's all. ;;^^ pairings 13x6 later ^^;; some 6x9 material too... um 2+1ish I believe too. ^_^
Now for the actual teaser. -_-

Duo spoke loudly to be heard over the noise, “The Sparkling Diamond, Zechs, will come up in the next act. I’ll set everything up so you’ll meet and read off the poetry, alright?”
“Fine... but who is this person?” Treize questioned over the din.
Quatre stared at him wide-eyed. “You really are new around here! Everyone knows of the Sparkling Diamond. You’ll see him up next!” He grinned, something sparkling in his eyes.
“Him?” Treize asked, trying to get more information.
Just then the song ended and the dancers moved off to the sides and onto platforms beneath the orchestra. A spotlight came on, pointing above the crowd. There were gasps and whistles from the crowd as the gorgeous figure was revealed.
“The French are glad to die for love.” The voice was incredible, already taking Treize’s breath away as the music started up loud while the trapeze that the lithe figure on lowered.
Long shining hair of pale blonde was streaked with hair glitter that caught the many lights that turned on as the music picked up. As the new figure dropped off the trapeze and landed on a platform before the orchestra, the pale face was revealed. Lips painted red and cheeks faintly stained with rouge, ice blue eyes shone behind the shade of bangs softly falling over the beautiful face. Everyone drunk in the sight of the tall, lithe body covered in a shimmering outfit that fit tightly about the form. Duo left the booth, disappearing into the crowd, but Treize hardly noticed, his entire attention laying on the vision that was parading down the platform and singing. Long white gloves covered the pale arms. Around the beautiful neck rested a necklace of shimmering diamonds. The back of the tight outfit was low, dangerously playing low about the slim waist. The long legs were a vision to take in, the upper thighs only being covered, barely, by short sequined shorts. The upper portion of the outfit ended a bit below the collarbone and was held up by a white piece of fabric that circled to the back.
The words of the song were lost to Treize; he was too entranced by the amazingly beautiful figure that was reaching out to the hands that were reaching up to try and touch the lovely body. With a toss of long hair and a wink, the beautiful vision disappeared behind a circle of showgirls.
“That,” Wufei said, looking to Treize, “is the Sparkling Diamond.”
Treize looked over the table at Wufei, slowly coming back to reality. “I’ll be meeting... with her?”
“Him,” Trowa corrected, a faint amusement coming to his green eyes.
Quatre noted the flash of realization cross Treize’s face. Frowning the blonde questioned, “Will that be a problem?”
“Ah... no... never mind,” Treize looked towards the circle of showgirls still hiding the two pale-haired figures that had slipped into their midst.

In the booth besides the small group there earlier had been a conversation between the owner of the Moulin Rouge and a possible benefactor to create a splendid theater to perform “Spectacular, Spectacular.”
Dorothy, the Moulin Rouge owner, gazed across the table at the dark-haired noblewoman across from her. “It’s settled, then. You shall meet with our ‘Sparkling Diamond’ and in return you will provide money for our theater?”
Nodding slowly, the noblewoman, Noin, replied, “Of course. But nothing is official until after tonight.”
“Yes, of course,” Dorothy answered, her gaze drifting towards her star performer of the Moulin Rouge. “I must be going! I will see you at a later time.” She hurried through the crowd and onto the platform where the showgirls were already beginning to close off the audiences view.
Within the ring of dancers Zechs began slipping off his costume and changing into a different one. Dorothy was doing the same thing.
“Is it set?” Zechs questioned, fastening the new outfit.
Dorothy smiled at him, “Of course. You’re to meet in your room once you change.”
Giving a sly smile, Zechs questioned, “And how shall I act... shy?” As he ran through the personalities he put on a different look. “Gentle? Slow and sensuous? Wild and fierce?”
Smirking, Dorothy replied, “Try the wild and passionate. Remember, if you pull through this you can be a real actor.”
The look that crossed Zechs’ face was of a happy dreamer. He smiled and went right back into the performance as the circle around them broke out. He continued his song, dancing out along the narrow platform that crossed the entire hall. His new outfit was just as form fitting as the previous one. White pants were laced down the sides, giving glimpses of the pale flesh concealed beneath the tight material. He wore a sleeveless shirt of gauzy white material that was almost see-through. As he crossed the platform Dorothy nodded towards the booths saying, “The one shaking out a handkerchief.”
Zechs twirled and chanced a glance the way that Dorothy had indicated. He was surprised when he saw a handsome ginger-haired man holding a handkerchief, eyes away from the performance. As he passed Dorothy he asked, “You sure?”
The next time that Dorothy she replied, “Yes.”
Taking one last look towards the booths, feeling a tingle from nervousness and excitement, Zechs let himself be lifted up by some of the other performers as he was taken back towards the trapeze he had entered on.
