1"I'm leaving you." She said pulling on her cloak and wrapping her scarf around her neck.
"Fin, you bitch. I don't want you here any more." The man growled ignoring her. She rolled her eyes and left the house, making sure to slam the door hard. She only took a few steps towards the forest before a small figure with black feathered wings landed before her.
"Mother." Duo growled. The woman smiled and pushed her hair over her shoulder.
"Have you decided to be who you are?" She asked. Duo straightened and looked up at her, a smile of his own on his lips.
"I have. I am a demon, born to kill." He said and before she could say or do anything a scythe appeared in his hand and he swept it across her body, it sliced threw her like a knife through butter. Her smile never vanished as she slide to the ground lifeless. Duo didn't even think about her as he stepped over her with his dirty bare feet, the snow melting around them as they touched the ground with every step.
He opened the door and stepped through. The man, the demon, his father, was standing there with a grin and a sword.
"Come to challenge me?" He asked.
"No." Duo said calmly, a smile spreading across his own lips. "Just to destroy you." He said and his father didn't get a chance to attack as Duo's scythe impaled his chest. Blood gushed from the demons chest, spraying over the walls and Duo.
"How?" He asked in shock as he feel to his knees, clutching his chest.
"Because you destroyed my heart." Duo said and feel to his knees, dropping his scythe which vanished as soon as it left his fingers. His father feel motionless next to him and tears filled Duo's eyes as he looked at the blood around him. "I can't go back to Heero, I can't let him see this blood." He whispered.
Duo got to his feet hours later and left the cottage burning behind him as he walked into the forest in the direction that would lead him away from the one person he knew he wanted to be with most.
Heero stood on his balcony watching the smoke raise above the forest from the burning fire somewhere near the forests end.
"Duo, please, come back, I can help you, I can love you and protect you." He said. He held out his hand towards the fire a blue stone sat in it. "My heart is yours my little demon."
"He's rejecting it." Sally said. Heero was pinning Duo down again as the demon laid in the bed shaking and sweating. He was unconscious and was breathing heavily.
"How can he be rejecting it?" Heero asked wincing. His own chest was burning in pain.
"I don't know Heero." Sally said sadly.
"Leave us." Heero growled to her his eyes starting to glow.
"Yes sir." She said and left. Heero looked at Duo's face.
Heero cupped one of Duo's checks and kissed his forehead. He slowly trailed fingers down the side of Duo's face before bringing his lips to Duo's. Heero felt like the world was pulled out from under him and he fell. He opened his eyes, having closed them during the kiss, and now stood in a forest where the colors where non existent. The trees were black and the space was white.
"Duo?" Heero called out. There was no reply so he started walking around. He didn't have any idea where he was going, or why Duo's soul would be so quiet.
"No, stop." He herd the child cry out. He ran in that direction. He came to a sight where a male demon was hitting a child Duo.
"Hey, stop it." Heero called out but the two didn't hear him. The demon raised his hand and Heero went to stop him but the demons hand slide through his hand like it was only air.
"It's only a memory." A familiar voice said. Heero turned to see the current Duo.
"This is your father?" Heero asked, Duo nodded. "Duo why won't you let this go, why not start over, this was nearly an eternity ago." Heero said. Duo looked away from Heero.
"It's not easy. Heero this is what I am." Duo said as color started to appear. It wasn't what Heero had in mind as it was blood seeping from the trees.
"It is Duo, it is. I can help you. Please, we can be together, I can be your new life, your already mine." Heero said wrapping his arms around Duo.
"I've killed them, killed so many of them." Duo said a tear trailing down his cheek.
"So what. What has happened has happened. It can not be undone, but you can make up for it. You can remember those you killed, and morn there deaths, we can go through them all and you can apologies to each of them in a letter. I know it won't make any difference, but you have to move on. Please Duo come back to me." Heero said.
"Heero your crying."
"I am."
"You never cry."
"I do when I'm sad." Heero said.
"I cannot make up for their deaths, all those innocent people." Duo said.
"You can't, but you have a long life ahead of you to work for forgiveness. Stop being a demon, come with me and just be you." Heero said.
"How?" Duo asked covering his face with his hands. Heero smiled and pulled his hands away.
"Let me help you." He said with a gently smile.
Duo starred at him for a long while.
"You..." Duo smiled sadly. "Through all of this you still love me." He said.
"Duo how can I not love you. I told you, your mine." Duo smiled happily at that.
"It's time to wake up." Heero said and vanished.
When Duo opened his eyes Heero was holding him in his arms.
"Show me." He whispered.
