Disclaimer: You know it, I don't own Gundam Wing at all. Wish I did, but I don't.
A sacrifice.. Life for a life..
"No.."
You must pay the fact that you have a life, by giving me a life.
"I don't kill anymore.."
You have no choice. I have picked you a target, you must do it, or I will retrieve the life I have given to you.
"...Who?"
Why... you have only dedicated your life to protecting him. You rest beside him each and every night.
"....."
Deliver him to me, or you will be taken from him..
"...Damn you, Shini-..."
He was already gone before Duo could finish his sentence. Soon the darkened world he had been summoned to fazed away, into nothing. A world of nothingness, save toxic fumes of evil lurked about. He only looked around once, before deciding to run off in one direction. He knew this evil was here to only poison his mind into accomplishing what he was ordered. To kill only one person, Heero Yuy. He was the only one Duo would dedicate his life into protecting. He was the only person who could open his heart up by the most unsual ways ever. Through his coldness, and his wantiness to die, had Heero managed to glue Duo to himself. Duo gave him a reason to live, and Heero gave Duo someone to love.
There was an endless route of emptiness ahead of Duo, but only a few short feet between himself and the toxin. Glancing back, which had possibly been a grave mistake, as a present from Shinigami, a lone, innocent rock popping up from the ground. Not seeing it, nor able to manage his balance, Duo tripped, and immediately fell in an awkward position on the ground. "D-damnit!" He sputtered, as he noted his leg was hurt. Looking ahead, the darkness caught up to him. "No..." It swirled around him, slowly, teasingly, dangerously. With no choice, unable to run, and unable to hold in any air, he breathed in the toxic fumes; coughing at each breath.
Resistance was futile, t'was a good thing you allowed it when you did.
"..."
Now I order you, do what I had told you to do earlier.
"Yes, sir..."
The world before you shall disappear as you think of your order. Regain your strength, and do what you have to do. Farewell, Duo..

"He is coming to. Finally!"
"That is good, I was afraid for him there."
"Who wasn't? Duo's head injury was no laughing matter. He was lucky that Deathscythe didn't blow up on him."
"Don't say that.."
All these voices... He thought in his semi-concious mind. I am still alive.. aren't I? Slowly, Duo opened his eyes, and looked into four pairs of surprised eyes. Aqua, black, green, and cobalt. He looked at them each again, but paused at the pair of colbalt eyes. So cold, yet so warm. "Heero.." He suddenly felt his body encovered by another body, arms surrounding his waist.
"Welcome back, Duo. I missed you so.."
"Heero, I missed you too..."
He returned Heero's hug tightly, as his grip was very tight, as he heard those hushed whispers in his mind. Do what you are ordered to do... Oh Heero, I don't.. but.. I can't... my god... why must this happen to me...
"I'll take care of you for as long as I can."
"I would appreciate it, Heero," Duo answered back. He felt a chill hit his spine hard, as he felt darkness surround him. It won't be too long..
