Always and Forever

By Blink Falcon

Chapter Six

Author's Notes:Well, this will be my first Chapter on this fic, so don't be too picky :).  I'm not as adept to GW as others, and my style is certainly different from Star's, but I will do my best, so don't worry about that.  I want to again thank Star Kindler for her transferring this fic to me, and I want to give a couple last warnings…

            I luv my Duo, but I will certainly continue this fic the way it is intended.  My style may be a bit more poetic, but I was also the editor for the first coupld chapters of this, so I'm not a newbie or anything.  Ok enough of that, time to type!  Please Review, especially if you've been following this fic from the time of Star, hehe.  And as always, ENJOY!

            "Damnit! What do you mean there's little hope? You're supposed to be trained for this!" By now Heero was all but screaming at the unfortunate officer filing the missing person report. "Listen! How hard is it to understand? You're supposed to be trained at this sort of thing, and he's been missing for too long now! Damnit just-" Heero raised his hand but Quatre was faster and caught it, the clerk cowering slightly and reaching for his revolver.

            "Heero! Please, this is getting us nowhere, and I'm sure the police will do all that they can, we just have to be patient." Heero looked into Quatre's eyes and began again sobbing, breaking down in his friend's arms, and crying into his shoulder. "Sshh, it'll be ok Heero, besides, if the Police don't help, at least we have our ways…"

            Heero looked at Quatre as he understood what he was saying.  They were the Gundam, of course they had other ways!  Thoughts of finding Duo flooded into him, as his hope slightly renewed, but just as quickly, thoughts of revenge for his Duo's rape entered his head! "Yes Quatre, we'll find him on our own…" And with that the young pair walked out of the station, leaving a terrified, and very mystified rookie officer sitting at his desk, still holding the handle to his revolver.

            Duo felt safe again, he was in Heero's arms and all was right with the world.  Nothing could hurt him as long as Heero held him as he did now. "It'll be ok," He heard the words echo through his mind and they overjoyed him, "We will be together soon, and all shall pay for what they did."

           

            Then another image appeared, one of Stephen coming at him again, but this time it was different.  He saw himself, standing, bloodied and battered, but standing!  He faced down his captor as he was charged, but he was not alone.  Somewhere was a companion, he didn't know where for he couldn't see, but the was there.

            Duo screamed in pain, causing the EMT to nearly drop him!  He awoke as he was lifted from the bed of glass and blood.  He felt cold and lifeless, and couldn't move at all.  He was in pain, more than he had been even when Stephen had cut his chest and marked him.  His soul ached for Heero, and his body was wracked with agony brought by his tormentor.

            "Quick Mark, we have to get him out of here, he's lost too much blood!" The shaken EMT quickly regained himself, and hoisted Duo onto the stretcher.  Duo again screamed in pain, dazzling lights flashing before his eyes, but then it stopped.  The pain and anguish left him, and he felt a sudden cold calm…

            Then as his vision began to again darken, he saw him.  He saw before him the one that he loved and longed for, and he was at peace.  He felt no pain, no strife, just the comfort as Heero's face radiated in his mind's eyes, as his breathing stopped…

            Stephen jumped in the car, cursing madly as he peeled away from the Apartment building.  "Shit! What the fuck!  How did she know! God damnit how the fuck…" Darrell looked at him wildly, not knowing what was going on, and began to question the irate and still screaming Stephen.

            "Stephpen? What's going on? What the fu-" He was cut short be a demonistic glare from the firey eyes of Stephen, as they burned into his soul like hot pokers being driven into him!

            Stephpen turned to face the road again as he sped off to another safehouse. "Listen, thanks to that fucking bitch, there's now a warrant for our arrest!" Darrell gasped, a horrified look on his face! 'Oh god, he's dead…' "That bitch found him, found MY Duo! The police say they're after you, but we should be safe, I know people, and I'm not letting them take my Duo not now not wh-"

            "No Stephen, I'm sorry but I can't do this!" Darrell felt his first rush of courage ever against Stephen.  He was tired of the beatings and the insults, it hurt him that another man was so tortured for apparently almost no reason.  "I'm sorry Stephen but this time it's too far, you've killed someone damnit! Do you realize what they'll do! They-"

            Darrell was cut short as he was sent reeling from a fist!  Stephen, screamed in rage! "Fuck you then! I don't need you! And don't worry, That bitch'll see you soon!" And with that Stephen reached over and opened the door beside the still Dazed Darell. Before he could react, the unfrtunate man was thrown from the car speeding at 100+ MPH, and after a short roll, fell from the highway, landing on top of a speeding car. 

            The sound of screeching brakes and shattering glass pleased Stephen as he closed the door and sped off into the dark night. 'It'll be ok, I'm strong, I'm powerful! And damnit Duo WILL love me, and if not, He'll never love anyone again!…'

Ok well, that was it.  Hope you all liked my first Chapter in this continuation of a great story.  It's not too good cause I was up pretty late last night, and it's actually onl;y a rough draft (I never revise a story, I always post the first draft). But anyways, please review, I'd like to know how I did :).  Ok that will be all, Ja-ne!
