*Not quite shounen ai.* I may not be too good at this yet, but I hope you enjoy it anyhow. Please read Part 1 first if you haven't yet. Oh yeah, in case you haven't figured it out, this goes along with the episode where Duo saves Hilde from being shot down by Libra when she breaks in and gets important data about the battleship.(one of my favorites. Duo is so kawaii!) Enjoy Part 2 :)
*And thank you all for the resposnes to my little yaoi problem!! I appreciate them very much.* I hope you're all pleased with the Angel of Death series so far...I think it'll only be 3 parts.
Angel of Death Part 2
Once he realized it was only one of his sadistic nightmares, Duo systematically regained his regular heart rate by taking in deep breaths, letting to cool air coat and soothe his burning throat and insides, then finally exhaling. "Geez, I feel like I got smashed", he dazily thought, "but if I really was, I would remember a party." Of course he knew what had really happened, but the black humor kept him from thinking about his horrible pain.
Throwing the sheet off, Duo examined his considerably damaged body. "A gash here, a bruise there..." he assured himself, "looks like I can still fight, better get going." Unfortunately, his short attention failed to notice the bandaged knee. As if nothing had happened, Duo jumped joyously out of the bed, promptly unmistakingly hearing a loud "CRRRACK" shoot up his right leg.
Heero, meanwhile, stood paralyzed watching, not sure how to present himself, or if he should bother aiding Duo.
Duo regrettably sucked in a deep breath through his grinding teeth, flopping horizontally across the bed. "Awww, shit, now I gotta pop it back into place like Heero always does." At the sound of his name, Heero didn't even flinch. Duo remorsefully closed his eyes, letting his head and upper body sink into the soft bed, while he stretched his left foot out to floor, keeping his right leg still. Folding his hands on his stomach, sighing, the increasing sharp pain in his knee signaled his brain about the rest of his injuries he was trying to hide. This time, Duo reluctantly let himself feel the aching and bleeding. Everything hurt, especially his heart. Deep inside, he remembered why he really woke up; the approaching Final Battle...intoxicating his mind like a sea of blackness and despair. "Hilde," he sadly murmured, "Hilde, where are you, are you okay, baby?" Recollecting his mission, realizing the crucial battle was awaiting the God of Death, glittering tears filled his eyes, spilling over, soaking his cheeks.
Heero softly took a small step toward Duo. Watching Duo's tears fall, he understood perfectly, each tear hitting him like a bullet to the chest. Now he understood what he had felt before when he came into the room, or when Duo carried Hilde into Peacemillion's docking area. Although everyone knew him-feared him-for his monotonous, determined hardness, hidden within his icy heart, love, sincerity, and warmth faintly existed, burning stronger every time he saw Relena. He remembered a brief moment long ago when he actually had the chance to dance with her. He had to kill her...the gun was there...and she wasn't afraid at all. So strong were his thoughts about her at that moment, her sheer strength somehow awakening anew whenever he saw her, he almost forgot about his first objective and gave in. Swiftly spinning together, her soft light brown hair brushing against his cheek, he still wanted to kill her, but he couldn't, with her compassionate smile, and sweet blue eyes, determination set on her face..it was something he admired.
At that very moment, Heero felt a great rush flow through his body, another wave of emotion. "Love...so this is love...just like how Duo went out of his way to save Hilde," he thought, "when he usually lets people die mercilessly, the God of Death... just like I do." Heero finally realized he loved Relena. They both loved each other because of their strong determination and special power and skill to create peace between Earth and Space, a special bond. Countless numbers of times he could have destroyed her, and all of those times he just couldn't do it. If he did, he would have annihilated his hopes of pacifism. "I've never felt so confident about my mission before," he pondered, "In order to obtain peace, I've got to protect Relena." Finally, the clarity of Heero's feelings surfaced through the artificial murkiness of his heart. He had always protected these feelings by creating an ominous darkness when speaking to people, ally or enemy. But Duo's rescue somehow melted the ice and darkness away...and Relena's light could now shine through.
Heero finally decided it was time to talk to Duo. Besides, he did need to show Duo the data Hilde had got. He wouldn't look at without Duo seeing it, too. He moved up behind Duo's head, leaned over, and spoke with built-up confidence.
"Duo...tears will do nothing for you. Hilde's down the hall being treated by the medics. She lost a lot of blood."
"Heero! What the...I mean...why....she is?" Duo was at a complete loss. Obviously, Heero must have been the one to move him here, this conference room. His heart sank as what Heero said registered. He expected to see Quatre or Trowa, maybe Wu Fei even, let alone if anyone would come to see him.
What do you think? Part 3 will be up ASAP. Please review. :)
