"Heero, please hurry and decide. Will you go back to earth with me or with Maxwell," said the light brown headed girl. Heero just stood there for a moment not knowing what to say. Yes, he wanted to go back with Duo but then he did pledge to protect this girl that was in front of him. He looked off into the distance and saw the braided boy sitting there waiting for Heero's answer. He didn't seem to eager about his answer but this girl. She kept asking him every minute. Relena looked over at Duo and motioned him to come over. Duo stared at her for a moment but then sluggely walked over. "What?" he said in an annoyed voice.

"Maxwell, Heero has chosen to go to earth with me. I ask that you, no I order you to never come near Heero or I ever again." Her voice was clear and not hesitant. Duo glanced over at Heero and back at Relena. "You order me to? Since when did you start ordering me around?" questioned the pilot. Duo stepped closer to the girl when a hand pushed him back. Duo fell back and stared over at the Japanese pilot. He looked at him in shock and horror but also he had a look that he knew this would happen. "Heero, I wasn't going-"
"Maxwell, do as she asked and just stay away from us," he cut in. Hearing it from Relena wasn't that bad but from Heero. Duo stared at the too and turned around. "Good bye then," said Duo in a stern voice. Duo slowly walked out of the air station and never looked back knowing if he did, he would end up running after Heero begging him to stay. But boys don't cry, neither do they beg. Duo just kept walking on and on.


Quatre was wandering around his home for a little break with Trowa when he saw a guard struggling to kick someone out. Quatre walked over to the guard and asked him what was the matter. "This boy keeps telling me he knows you Sir," he had said. Quatre looked over at the dark figure. He had all black on like usual and a black cap that covered his eyes. Quatre knew from the second he saw his chestnut brown braid that it was his good friend Duo. "Duo! How have you been?" he yelled out in excitement. Duo stuck his tongue out at the guard and walked passed him with a cheerful smile. "Well I know this may sound stupid but can I hang around here for a while? Just until I get some money to buy myself a new apartment?" the boy asked with a smile. "Of course! You are always welcome here at my home," the Arabian boy said to him with a warm smile. Duo thanked him and the guard that had tried to kick him out showed him to his room. When Duo entered to room he glanced at the guard and smirked. He slammed the door on him and explored his new surroundings. He had been at his home before but forgot how grand it was. Duo unpacked his things and washed up. He soon went back outside and wandered around. He got lost once in a while but managed to get his way through to the dining room. He sat down and apologized for his absence. He saw the Wufei had been there too. There wasn't much conversation but Duo managed to add a few compliments to the chef. Then the gold haired boy asked the question.

"Duo, where did Heero go?" Duo first looked pale and heartbroken but then he quickly plastered on a smirk of his. "Where else? He went back with Relena," he had said. Everyone stared at Duo for a moment and there was silence until one of the waiters came back with desert. "Yeah. Strawberry cream pie. I love your chef Quatre," said Duo stuffing himself. Everyone else nodded knowing the fact that he did not want to talk about Heero. After the dinner Duo walked off back to his room leaving the other pilots behind.

It had been a few weeks since Duo came to reside at the Winner Mansion. Duo seemed to be acting cheerful and always cracking jokes but something seemed different about him. He soon started to stay quiet and always stay in his room. He distanced himself from the other pilots and sometimes didn't come to eat with them. He would lock himself in his room and no one knew what he was doing. Soon Quatre came up and knocked on the door but there was no answer. Quatre knocked some more but he did not open the door with his cheerful little grin. Quatre soon got the other Gundam Pilots and got them to knock down the door. They searched everywhere but found nothing. The room was clean and none of Maxwell's possessions were found except for a small little note lying on his bed. Quatre picked it up and read, "Thanks." That was all it said. They soon felt a cold breeze and looked over and saw that the window was open. "Trowa… we have to find him. We all know the pain he has been through since Heero left. What if he went off to kill himself? Trowa!"
The Chinese boy grunted. "He would do no such thing. I don't know much about him but I know a man would never stoop so low to go dramatic as a woman and go off killing himself. Where is the honor in that?"
The other two pilots gave him a look and thought of where he would go.

"A church," Wufei finally said. "A church? Why would he go there?" asked Trowa.
"Oh right, I remember him telling me that he used to live at a church a long time ago when he was little, How many churches are around here?" asked Trowa. "Well… there are two around here. On is the Church of Christ and the other is The Church of St. Mary," replied Quatre. "You and Trowa go to the St. Mary thing and I'll go to the Church of Christ. If we find Duo then um…" thought the chinese boy. Quatre handed all of them a phone. "Just call each other," said Quatre with a smile. They agreed and went their ways.

Trowa and Qautre were wandering around the colony in search for the church. "Trowa, do you tink Duo will be ok?" Trowa gave a him a look. "Don't worry," he calmly said. They finally reached the church. It was night so the doors were locked and closed. "Well he could have gotten in anyway. You know how sneaky Duo can be."
Trowa got something out of his pocket and the door slowly opened. They both walked in to see that nothing but chairs and a big statue was there. They searched around everywhere but there was no sign of Duo. Trowa called Wufei and told him that Duo was not there. "I just arrived at the Church of christ. Meet me here. I'm sure if Maxwell isn't there then he should be here. I just need to find out a way in," said Wufei. Trowa hung up and the two left for the Church of Christ.
