The Unknown Identity


Ch.1

The young boy with the thick brown braid closed his eyes in pain. He had gotten shot in the leg. He groaned and watched the blood run down his pant leg. He lifted himself off the ground and limped towards the trees nearby that seemed like a mile away in his mind's eye. In actuality, it was only a few yards. His vision doubled, and he swayed on his feet, praying that someone would help him, the agony was horrible. Another young brown haired boy saw him swaggering toward the woods. His name was Heero, and he was planning to help this young man that had pain etched all over his face. He was planning to help his old friend, a special old friend, Duo.

Duo had the setting sun blocked from his eyes by a shadow. He raised his dilated eyes and moaned in a cross between wonderment and pain. "Heero, (groan), too bad for your welcome back party." Heero mentally smiled, but kept his face passive, "It's all right." Heero had just returned from outer space along with the other Gundam pilots, Trowa and Quatre.

He lifted Duo, making him place an arm around his neck. "So sorry Heero, didn't mean too." Heero was silent as he half dragged and half carried his buddy to the woods. "Where's Relena?" "Oh God, Heero, I'm sorry. She shot me and ran. Said somethin' about 'Heero, lost." Heero set Duo down on the ground. He slammed his fist into a nearby tree and muttered a curse under his breath. When he lifted his fist up, he noticed some blood on the tree. He felt as if that's what he wanted to see on the one that had shot Duo. He wiped the blood off on his green, sleeveless, shirt and turned to face Duo lying against a tree. "You all right man?" Duo opened his eyes, a look of tiredness and anger were reflected in them, "Yeah, I guess." Heero dug in his pockets and pulled a handkerchief and proceeded to wipe of the blood off Duo's pants. He then wrapped around his shin like a tourniquet to stop the flow of blood. Duo gasped in pain as Heero tightened the knot of the handkerchief. "Man, you could be a little gentle." "You better rest, I'll be back when I find Quatre and Trowa at the landing site." Duo watched as Heero left, watch out man, he thought, there are things that have changed and there are people out to get you.


Chap. 2
Heero had no idea of who was waiting for him when he reached his destination. A boy about his height stepped out of the shadows. The guy had black hair that he had slicked back his hair and his eyes seemed not to welcome Heero. A look of confusion crawled into his eyes, immediately covered by recognition. Heero's eyebrow raised in suspicion of this gangly character. "Ah, Heero, where is your dignity? Do you just think you can appear and save an injured rebellious friend? Duo had an accident, it shall never happen again. I am sure of that, he belongs to my other minions and me, you left, things changed. Rashid, missed the target, be glad, Relena was spared accidentally."

Heero felt a sudden burst of anger, which caused him to lunge at Wufei. Wufei stopped him before he got a chance to take a swing at him. " Do you have any idea of where your friends Trowa and Quatre are?" Heero had remembered that they were waiting in the building that Wufei was leaning against. He was wondering what he had done to them while he was gone. "I didn't hurt them, yet. Although that wimp Quatre might have been slightly injured due to the strength of my men. Or he could have not wanted to cooperate. Either way, there is a large probability that he is hurt."

"You think your something don't you Wufei? You actually believe that, what? Honor comes from pain and disgrace? You're such a loser, you know? You do don't you?" Heero asked, watching in amazement as anger washed into his old friend's coal black eyes. Wufei clenched his hand into a fist, his nails lacerating his palm. He went wild and swung both his fists at Heero's face. Heero dodged gracefully, grabbing Wufei's hand so quickly that Wufei had no idea of what had happened. Heero's anger boiled deep inside of him, and he twisted Wufei's wrist and smiled evilly at the sound of bones crunching. Wufei howled in pain and horror. He gripped his wrist to his chest, and his eyes flashed with supreme anger. "Where are my men?! Disable this freak, anyway you can. Keep him alive though!" All of a sudden around two dozen muscled, ugly men surrounded Heero. "Oh Heero, you're not getting away this time, you will pay for everything that you have done to your so called "friends". Bye, see you in the hospital." Wufei walked off nonchalantly into the mist. "Damn you Wufei! How could you!" Heero glanced around, knowing in his mind that this was going to be a loosing battle on his side.
