Shinigami:The First Prequel
by:~**Twilight Nuriko**~
Duo sighed as he walked into the apartment he and Hilde shared, pulling his shirt off as he came in. He was extremely tired. He and the other boys had been up all night planning a mission, and now all he wanted to do was sleep. Eagerly, he began to head towards his room, but his way was soon blocked by Hilde.
"Where've you been all night Duo? You've been with someone else haven't you? Haven't you? *Haven't* you? Answer me." Hilde commanded coldly.
"Yes, the guys-"
"YOU HAVE?! Why, you little cheat!" Hilde screamed. The neighbors across the hall cringed. "You bastard! You dare to cheat on me?! YOU DARE TO?!"
"No, I was with-"
"Don't give me that shit! You were with another woman! Admit it asshole! Admit it!"
When Duo refused, Hilde grabbed a knife off the bar counter they were standing by and began to scratch Duo slowly, running the knife down his bare chest. Little bright red droplets of blood appeared. Duo flinched but didn't cry out in pain.
"You gonna admit it know?" Hilde asked softly.
"No, because I was with the guys planning a mission, not with another woman. I'd never cheat on you. I love you too much." Duo told her.
"You do?"
"Yes," he lied.
"Oh Duo! That's so romantic! I love you too!" Hilde cried, dropping the knife. Duo wrapped his arms around her and embraced her in a tight hug.
"Hilde....." he thought sadly. "What's wrong with you?"

"G'bye Hilde! Love ya! I don't know when I'll be back!" Duo called, heading out of the apartment.
"Where are you going?" she asked suspiciously, looking up from the TV where she was watching an old rerun of Yu Yu Hakusho.
"Got a mission with the guys. I don't know how long it will take. We're gonna scope out Gemini(1) and figure out the best possible way to get in," Duo explained.
"Oh. Well, don't hook up with any girls, even though I know you probably will, being the lil bastard that you are, you ole whore," Hilde said, rather cruelly.
Duo just stared at her. 'That was harsh,' he thought. 'I wonder what's shoved up her ass today.'
"Stop fuckin' starin' at me, bitch."
"Sorry, geez. Don't get an attitude." Duo threw up his hands in defense. "I didn't mean anything by it. Well, anyways, gotta run. Later Hilde!" The door slammed shut behind him. Hilde just glared back at it.

Duo arrived home two days later, sore, bruised, and exhausted. Hilde was up waiting, lighter in hand. She lit it up as Duo walked in. Holding the flame right under his hand, she asked him, "You weren't with any girls, were ya? Cause if you were..." she trailed off.
"No Hilde," Duo said tiredly. He moved his hand away from the searing heat. "Please, let's not go through this again. I'm exhausted. We had a rough time of it. The Black Ghosts almost got us, and I'm extremely sore. I'm going to bed. Please don't disturb me. Night." Duo pushed past Hilde and headed towards his room.
~
"DON'T GIVE *ME* THAT SHIT!! YOU FUCKIN' LIAR! DON'T YOU DARE DENY IT! I SAW YOU WITH HER! I SAW YOU"! - "I was rescuing her fr" - "AND KNOWING YOU, YOU PROBABLY WENT TO BED WITH HER! YOU GO*DAMNED BASTARD!" In a fit of rage, Hilde grabbed one of those big kitchen knives and stabbed Duo twice, in his stomach. Blood began gushing out of his stomach, running down his shirt and pants, past his shoes, only to began dripping onto the white kitchen tiles.
Duo gasped in pain and grabbed wildly for the counter to steady himself, his eyes wide. Missing, he wobbled and, feeling faint, stumbled over to a chair to sit down. His vision became blurry, his eyes watering in pain. He couldn't think. Dimly he became aware that Hilde was beating him over the head with a frying pan. He couldn't even feel the pain. The pain in his stomach was too immense. Then suddenly the pain disappeared and the room grew black. Duo passed out.
~
Duo groggily awoke to faint voices surrounding him. Gradually these voices grew louder as he became more aware of his surroundings. One of those voices was Hilde's.
"I don't know," she was saying. "I came home and he was lying passed out on our kitchen floor, bruised and almost bleeding to death. I don't know who could have done that. Of course, he's a soldier in the war. He's really excellent. The Black Ghosts want him for a number of reasons. I suppose it could have been one of them, although that's..."
"You're a liar, Hilde," Duo thought bleakly as he blocked out the sound of her voice. He didn't even listen for the doctor's reply.
"You're nothing but a cold-blooded liar. Yet Shinigami still triumphs over you, cause I'm leaving your fucked up ass. Soon's I get out of here. Then I'm gone."

(1)Gemini is a space fortress much like the Libra was. It's run by the Black Ghosts, who surfaced shortly after the downfall of the White Fang and the Treize Faction. Over the years, many new mobile suits were introduced as well. Saggitarius is one of the new mobile suits, and the only I mention in the second prequel.
