-1Do not own GW …
Prince or thief?
"Oh Wufei, come on you know that what we do is good, think of all the happy children we feed with our earnings." Duo said with a smiled.
"If you even think about calling me 'little Wu' again I will kill you Maxwell!" Wufei whispered as the snuck into the town after night fall
"But Little Wu fits you so perfectly." Duo said. Sneaking around one of the larger building, one that promised lots of money.
"Just get to it Maxwell!" Wufei said as he turned a corner ducking the guards.
Duo rolled his eyes and started climbing up the wall hidden by shadows and made his way into the bed room of a rich man. He quickly set to work searching the room for jewels, gems, and other priceless trinkets. He went to the window and dropped them down to Wufei, then went back to get the money, dropping that down to Wufei he dropped down from the window with no or little sound. "How long did that take?" He asked.
"You forgot this" A boy in rich clothes said from the window and tossed down a pouch with jewels in it. It was tied shut by a simple chain with a simple silver cross. The only design was a small pair of wings attached to the cross. The affluent looking but generics man in the window hair was a rich dark chocolate brown that looked as though it could never be tamed.
Duo looked up as he caught the bag in his hands. He smiled up at the boy and then bowed low. "My thanks." He said, standing straight again and winking at the boy. The boy nodded in response and left the window. Duo was about to climb up again to go after the boy, but heard the guards coming and took flight with Wufei instead.
Wufei ducked into the trees "You were seen!"
"Yeah, but he's hot...doesn't count." Duo said, pushing Wufei slightly as they ran, almost causing him to run into a tree.
"That does not change a thing!" Wufei said back in protest.
"Sure it does." Duo said holding up the cross necklace. "I'm going to keep this." he said.
"Injustice!" Wufei cried as they entered their camp of their fellow 'do-gooders'.
Duo laughed at Wufei and plopped down against a tree. "you're just jealous." He said.
"Jealous of getting caught?! Unthinkable!" Wufei threw his hands into the air and stormed off.
Duo laughed and fingered the necklace around his neck. He would defiantly go back to that place...to that boy. "NO LITTLE WU, I MEAN THAT I FOUND A HOT BOY AND YOU DIDN'T." Duo said calling after him.
"INJUSTISE!" he yelled back from across the camp causing heads to turn.
"Sheriff is collecting taxes again tomorrow." Duo said thoughtfully to his band of men.
A carriage with a heavy guard rolled along a path the next morning. Duo sat high in a tree watching the carriage as it drew closer. He had seen the boy form the night before getting into it earlier and decided on fallowing it.
"Odin I don't need this many guards" Heero said in his flat monotone.
"How many times must I ask you to call me Father" The man that sat beside Heero said. Duo smiled from his hidden position, he had an idea.
"Heero, Odin is just being overly protective." Trowa said and a smirk at the old man.
"Hn" Heero grunted then spotted someone in the trees. It was the hot bandit from the other night. "Pull the Carriage over" Heero said. "Pardon?" Odin asked" "I have to pee" Heero said bluntly and hopped out of the moving carriage and into the forest.
Trowa distracted the guards by simple pulling them into a conversation. Duo followed the boy a little deeper into the forest and jumped down in front of him and bowed to him. "An honor." He said with a sly smile.
"Why are you following me?" Heero crossed his arms over his chest
"Why did you help me last night?" Duo answered with another question and leaned on a tree.
"I did no such thing" Heero turned his nose up trying to discourage the braided bandit.
"Really?" Duo said stepping closer to the boy and pulled the necklace out.
"Thief. You got that out of my room" Heero looked at the little cross that was set between two silver wings.
Duo shook his head and smirked. "Fine be that way." Duo said turning to leaving, smiling the whole time. If the boy wanted to play hard to get, then Duo would play as well.
Heero turned and walked back to the carriage. He hated pretending to be a snob.
Duo smiled and decided to keep following the carriage. He would learn the boys name by the end of the day if it killed him.
