Elven Lore
Disclaimer: I do not own Gundam Wing. I do own this story line and any other original characters I bring in.
Authors Notes: This is going to be 3x4 and maybe 1x2 eventually. This is Very AU. Don't butcher me if the characters are OOC. I happen to like having my head. It's in 1st pov. Lets see..umm yeah I have pictures drawn for this somewhere. ^^" I just forgot where. Oh and the chapters are really really short so I may have more than one chapter on a page. Heh. Trowa is by far the longest. I guess that's because my pov is closer to his than any of the others.
Duo
There was light. There was warmth when I thought I would never be warm again. I sighed and resisted waking. I'm not quite sure why. Normally I'm an early riser. Voices. Was Mother coming to wake me up? It didn't sound like her. It sounded.human. I bolted upright. Forget sleeping what was I doing in a human dwelling? I bit back a groan as pain and memories flooded my mind. Quatre.
I carefully got up out of the overlarge bed and stood up. My mouth quirked into what might have been a smile had anything been faintly amusing. At least the human had the decency to keep me clothed although the shirt was obviously not mine. I looked down at the over large shirt and noticed this particular human must be tall, even for humans.
Again pain flooded my mind. I stumbled and caught at a dresser near by.
"Blast you Duo. Can't even keep your balance." That was the least of the things I was bad at. I swallowed hard and forced my mind away from that topic. "Now to find out where I am and get Quatre back." Gingerly I moved through the small house in search of its occupant. After a while I found myself back where I had started from. The bedroom.
I opened the door fully intending to go back to sleep and pray this was all a dream. Almost immediately my eyes narrowed and I growled.
"Human." I spat. The tall human merely nodded. His dark brown hair fell in a single bang over one eye, hiding it from veiw. The remaining eye was a deep forest green staring coolly into mine.
"Where is he? Where is Prince Quatre!"
Heero
I glanced at the sleeping elf on the bed. Strange. I frowned. Elves didn't have blond hair but there was no faking the ears. Only an elf had pointed ears, only an elf could have survived the falls.
I turned my attention back to the weapons that had been lying next to him. They were beautifully made. I ran my hand lightly over the elven steel. They were a pair of daggers, their blade wickedly curved. Another thing declaring the boy an elf. There was of course the possibility of the boy not owning the daggers. With his blond hair and delicate features, the boy didn't look like much of a fighter.
A moan issued from the bed and I turned back frowning. The boy thrashed gently in his sleep.
'Tortured by nightmares' I thought as I moved back to the bed. Frowning again I placed a hand on his forehead. It felt hot. Was that the normal temperature for elves or did he have a fever?
I spun around and grabbed my cloak off the chair 'Wufei will know. He's more used to non-humans than any of us.' I looked back once at the golden elf and strode off into the night.
Trowa
"Where is he? Where is Prince Quatre!"
The boy I rescued stood there glaring up at me. Judging by what he called me he was an elf. His long hair had apparently concealed his ears. I shook my head.
"You HAVE to know!" Again I shook my head.
"You were the only one there." I didn't add the fact that I had no clue who he was talking about. The boy was agitated and further angering him was not wise.
He sank to the floor. "Quatre.oh gods Quatre." I looked at him worriedly. His violet eyes were closed tightly; whole body huddled against the wall. I walked over hesitantly and awkwardly placed a hand on his shoulder.
The boy laughed. "Come on Quat! Come and catch me if you can!" Another elf, a golden one, laughed and started chasing after him.
"Come back here Duo! I will get you!" A chase through the forest ensued. The two elves collapsed on the bank of a river. Quat panted. "Duo. you are entirely too fast!"
The other elf, Duo, flopped on his stomach and grinned. "Up! That's me! Duo Maxwell. I may run, and extremely fast too I might add. But I never tell a lie!" Quat laughed again.
"Only too true." The golden elf sat up and stared at the water. "Do you ever wonder Duo, what's beyond this land."
Duo sat up all seriousness. "Nope. Don't need to. All there is are humans. And you know what their like." Quat sighed still watching the fast moving river. Duo shoved him. "Hey! Longface! Cheer up!" Quat grinned.
"I guess." Quat leaned over the water. "but.even the water is different." He sighed and touched the surface with one finger. Duo reached forward to reassure the golden elf just at Quat slipped on the wet stones.
'NO!'
I jerked back staring at the elf. He started back at me with those violet eyes, just as shocked as I. Slowly I shook my head. Still stunned. Still staring. The elf, Duo?, looked away at the floor.
"I tried to save him. We had been friends since we were born." He said his voice hoarse. "I jumped in after him..." he trailed off. I looked at him.
"You tried." Duo's mouth quirked up.
"Don't talk much do you?" I shook my head. I don't talk much that's true. There's not that much to talk about. He licked his lips nervously. "I..uh..i'm going to look for him. Thanks for your help.I guess your not that bad for a human."
I watched him. It's not really his fault. I am partially human. But humans don't have eyes my shade of green. Humans wouldn't rescue an elf. And humans most defiantly wouldn't live this close to elven lands. Not alone, not in groups, never.
He looked at me. "You know.you can be really really unsettling with that silence of yours." He shifted some. I waited. He would get around to it eventually. He shifted again. "Err..do you want to come with me or something?" I nodded. About time.
Wufei
"I was perfectly happy reading my books but NO! someone had to come with an emergency." I muttered to myself and closed the book I was reading. There were advantages and disadvantages to living in the last town before elven lands.
"I'm Coming!" I snapped walking over to the door. The heavy pounding just increased. I waved my hand and muttered a small spell under my breath. The door swung open and the 'visitor' stumbled in. I squinted then sighed. "Figures" I turned to go back to the library but a steel grip had me by the elbow.
"Come." Mr. Perfect Soldier. Typical Heero. One word and a command at that. I spun around and glared at him.
"What is the meaning of this Heero!" He stood there messy brown hair over steel blue eyes absorbing my glare.
"The elf is sick." As if that explained everything. I took a deep breath trying to calm my temper. Elf. All right he now has or knows an elf.
"And who is this elf?" he just stared at me. "Fine! I'll go see your mysterious elf." I turned to get my bag and cloak muttering.
I returned and gave Heero another glare. I do hate being disturbed. Heero just nodded and walked out the door assuming I'd follow.
Quatre
Dreams. Colors and light. Half thoughts forming and dissolving. Hot. I'm so hot. Wasn't I cold? When? When was I cold? It doesn't matter. My mind shattered again. All there was light and images. Sound and heat. Dreams......
