Title: The Soul's Shadow [Part 3]
Warnings: Yaoi 1+3, a little Violence, the fic gets a little weird, most of it taking place in Trowa's "mind".
Disclaimer: Don't own the characters, but the idea for the fic is mine. ^__^ Go me!
CCT: I wrote this fanfic a long time ago, and just found it again. (it had been "buried" on my old computer. teehee.) And I wanted to share it with everyone. It's complete!

"Do you feel that you life's become a
catastrophe?
Oh, it has to be,
For you to grow, boy.
When you look through the years,
And see what you could have been;
Oh, what might have been,
If you'd had more time."
--Take the Long Way Home, Supertramp

"I do too! How could you know!?"
[That's just it; does he
know? Trowa, do you have a soul?] Trowa watched as the soldier slowly
disappeared leaving the other Trowa alone in the water.
"Of course I do!" The Trowa in the water shook his head.
[Are you sure of that?]
"Y-yes."
[You sure don't sound like
it.]
"Everyone has a soul, right?"
[Now that is a good question... Shall we see?]
"What do you mean?" The Trowa in the water smiled as he walked forward.
Slowly he emerged from the reflection standing face to face with Trowa.
[Let's see here.] The
Trowa in black leaned forward, staring into Trowa's eyes. Trowa blinked a few
times as the reflection continued to stare. [Well, there's something in there.
Let's just get a better look.] In a swift motion the Trowa in black shoved
Trowa hard. Trowa stumbled back, falling to the ground. He gasped at what he saw
afterwards.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Heero sat in the same
chair he had been for the past 48 hours. He held onto Trowa's hand tightly
praying his love would awaken again. He had once since he was brought to one of
the many rooms at the Preventers, but he had fallen back unconscious soon
after.
Heero looked up as the door across from him slowly opened. Duo poked his head
in.
"Hi." Heero only
nodded and lowered his head once more. "I just came to see how he was
doing. Anything change?" Heero shook his head. "Oh. Well, I'm sure he
will come around." Heero raised his head again, turning to look at Duo.
Duo froze in the doorway, Heero's eyes showing pain he had never seen before.
Heero's eyes lost that fierceness that had many men trembling at the sight of.
Now all that was left were two blue orbs, shimmering with unshed tears.
"H-Heero?"
"Is he going to be
okay Duo? Or are you just trying to comfort me?"
"Eh?..."
"Because if you
are...just go away..." Heero turned back towards Trowa again. "I
don't want it."
"No, Heero, I'm not
just saying it. He *will* be okay. I'm sure of it." Heero shook his head
as he fell forward, tears finally streaking down his cheeks. Duo watched as his
best friend began sobbing into the bed where Trowa lay. "Heero." Duo moved over to
Heero, getting on his knees beside him. "Heero?
Heero, it will be okay...He'll be all right." Heero lifted his head and
stared into Duo's eyes. Duo wasn't just saying it, he meant it and Heero could
see that in his eyes. "Have a little more faith,
Trowa wouldn't leave ya like that. Cha, he loves you man." Heero closed
his eyes, another tears escaping, as he breathed out a long sigh.
"I know he does...and
I love him too...that's why I can't stand to see him like this...He looks
so..."
-----------------------
Trowa stood quickly,
backing away from a very strange object floating next to the other Trowa. It
was a deep blue color and was shaped like a circle, and very flat as if it had
been drawn on a piece of paper. It just floated there as the other Trowa
studied it.
[I see...so you don't have
a soul.]
"What? Isn't that.."
[This, Trowa, is the
soul's shadow.]
