Chapter Six
The mask was almost off. As soon as the mask was off, a report of a gun was
heard. Heero and Relena both looked surprised at the person in front of them. (Heero
suddenly staggered back as the bullet hit his shoulder and gave off a piercing pain.
Heero took a step back and slowly set himself on the ground. Relena was at his
side in an instant, supporting some of his weight in her lap. "Why have you done this,
Wufei?" Relena asked with tears in her eyes.
(A.N. I have nothing against Wufei, but when you hear later why Wufei is doing
this, it will make a lot more sense. I love all the G-boys. Keep on reading and you will
see why Wufei is doing this( probably not for another chapter or more.).)
Heero had his hand tightly gripping his shoulder that was seemingly burning with
a white-hot pain. Wufei just stood there, smiling smugly at his work. "You know why I
did this, Heero. And later, you may know too, Relena," was all Wufei said before turning
to the door, "Oh, and by the way, that bullet had poison in it. I doubt you'll make it
through the night, Yuy."
Then Wufei was gone. Relena looked down at Heero and saw his eyes burning
with hate and a touch of confusion. "Can you walk, Heero? We really should get you to
a hospital," Relena spoke softly.
Heero managed a slight nod and Relena helped him stand. Relena tried to support
most of his weight, but as soon as Heero got to his feet, he fell backwards. "I know you
can stand up, Heero. Come on," Relena quietly urged.
Heero tried again and this time he made it. They took slow steps from the
building. The sunlight shifted into Heero's eyes and he slowly moved his right arm up to
shield his eyes from the burn. The progress they made was slow. A few steps and a rest,
few steps and rest.
The pattern continued like that until they reached just the outskirts of Cambilivii,
a state formed by Colony 76513 to be used during times of war. It had a hospital, and
that was where Relena was going to.
Heero had always been the one to be on missions, now Relena was on a mission
to save Heero's life. Heero suddenly stumbled at her side. Relena tried to get as much of
his weight on her shoulder so he wouldn't fall.
"Just a little further, Heero," Relena urged.
It was too late. Heero was hanging from her shoulder, he was beginning to get the
full brunt of the poison. "Come on, Heero," Relena begged as she began to slowly make
her way into Cambilivii.
It was slow work getting into the city, but Relena finally made it. She was now
growing weak from the pressure of his body. Relena cursed herself for not keeping in
shape.
Relena gruelingly made it to the hospital. The doors disappeared and Relena
entered. They promptly reappeared after she was in. "I need some help. This man has
been poisoned," Relena stated as a nurse came up to see what was the matter.
The nurse nodded and she talked in hushed tones into a tiny receiver by her
mouth. A floating gurney was soon out and Heero was placed on it. "Will he be all
right?" Relena asked as they took him behind the doors.
She didn't receive an answer and took a seat in the new chairs the hospital had
just gotten. They were comfortable, but they couldn't ease her mind from all the
possibilities that were spinning around in her head. She sank further into her chair.
She was given some papers to fill out. She filled out as much information as she
could. After she was finished, she brought it up to the nurses' station and took her seat.
Then she began to think.
'What if it's too late?' Relena began, 'Or what if they don't have the antidote?
What happens if he isn't the same Heero I have always known. What if...'
Relena didn't have much more time before a lady next to her tapped her on the
shoulder. "Are you waiting for someone to be announced okay?" she asked.
"Yes, in fact, I am," Relena replied.
"My husband was flying his hover car when another motorist just plowed him
right over. He didn't even see it coming. I screamed and then bam! They hit," the lady
told her.
"I'm waiting for Heero. I love him with all my heart, but I don't know if he loves
me back. I was kidnapped, and then just after our reunion, he was shot with a poison
bullet. I'm not sure if he'll make it," Relena admitted.
"Well here comes my doctor now. I hope you hear from them real soon. Bye,"
she said as she stood up to meet the doctor.
Relena focused her attention elsewhere, hoping to find any distraction from
waiting. She idly glanced at the news to see the weather report. She felt her eyelids
droop.
A hand suddenly tapped her on the shoulder. She started awake. She looked
around, and most of the people that had been there before were gone and the sun had set.
"Are you Trinity?" the nurse asked.
Relena looked up at her. It took her a few seconds to remember she had used that
name as an alias. She didn't look like Relena, and didn't want everyone swarming
around her. "Yes, I am," Relena replied.
"Right this way," the nurse motioned as she led Relena into a room off to one
side, "The doctors have just finished seeing Heero. We still don't have a full report on
him yet, and most likely won't for a few more days. You can go up and see him if you
would like."
"Which room is he in?" Relena asked.
"Floor seven, room sixteen," the nurse replied.
Relena turned to go up to his room. "Oh, and Miss Summers, please be quiet.
His senses are a little stronger than normal," the nurse told her.
Relena nodded and went up the steps. The Insta-Elevators were a tricky thing that
she never did have time to learn about. She hurried up to the seventh floor. She reached
the seventh floor and began looking at the room numbers.
"Room one, room two..." Relena counted.
She stopped as she reached the sixteenth room. She slowly opened the door. The
faint sounds of life whispered around her. Relena entered the room and slowly walked to
Heero's bedside. 'Please Heero, you have to live,' Relena silently begged as she gently
took his hand.
Hope you liked it. Please review.
