memory
****
A flash of light came and faded. Dorothy looked up to
see the cloud covered sky throw lightning at the
trembling earth.
The sound of doors opening made her turn. Running from
the burning palace was herself, Treize, Relena, and
Millardo. It was the day their parents died. Dorothy
could do nothing more than watch as Heero battled the
black creature.
White feathered wings clashed against the black bat like
wings of the other creature. The angelic form of Heero
flapped his arched wings in the air, causing his tunic to
wave and move in the wind created. The long rope belt
wrapped itself about the angel's frame as the wind pulled
at it with it's might. In his hand was a long softly
glowing sword. The blade reflected a world unlike the one
it was in. Soft downy feathers floated past green trees
and white clouds. A picture of peace and tranquility not
expected on a weapon of destruction. The sharp tip of the
sword was pointed directly at the beast shaped shadow.
Tears fell from Dorothy's eyes as she watched the blast
hurl towards Relena. She forced herself from turning as
she watched Millardo block the blast with his body. The
small boy fell to the ground, bleeding, hardly breathing,
so lost.
Heero finished the monster as he fell to the earth. The
shadow turning to smoke and vanishing. Even though she
knew he would be alright, she felt her heart ache as he
landed with bone crushing force only to turn to stone.
She turned to face her younger image. She was being held
by Treize as Relena clung to her dying brother. But what
was that? A thin wisp of black smoke entered Millardo
and his eyes opened slowly. Relena continued to cry as
she smiled and helped her brother to his feet.
Before Dorothy could blink she felt her mind be pulled
away from the memory into a new one. Colors flew past
her as she was hurled through out Zechs' mind. As the
light faded to normal she stared about herself. Millardo
was walking down a path.
Bright summer light filtered through the canopy of trees
to create a pattern of light and dark on the forest
floor.
A soft wind sang as it caressed the grasses and the
leaves.
The nearby stream whispered its words to the song.
The many birds and insects added their own harmony to the
enchanting melody.
The soft chirps melded perfectly with the flutelike sound
of the reeds.
A violin strummed in the background from the legs of the
crickets.
It was beautiful to hear and see. Her thought were
disturbed as she watched Millardo stop and cover his ears
as if to block out a horrible sound.
"Leave me alone! Who are you?"
Dorothy stared in wonder as the long haired man continued
to ask questions to no one but himself. A wisp of
black smoke encircled Millardo. Leaving and returning to
his body until as last Millardo grew limp and fell to the
soft glass covered ground. Moments later He stood up and
continued walking. Dorothy ran to keep up. Suddenly
Millardo stopped. Dorothy turned to see Wufei sitting upon
a boulder softly singing to no one. It was an enchanting
melody.
"Send me a message, an angel to love.
Fall for me angel, my precious white dove.
Taint your wings red, so that I might know your care.
Send me an angel, fallen from no where."
Millardo moved forward and a twig snapped underfoot.
Wufei turned to see Millardo approaching.
This must have been before Millardo turned into Zechs.
Otherwise Wufei's eyes would be on fire with rage, not
soft and loving as they were now. It had killed a piece
of Wufei and Treize when Millardo had changed. Neither
of them could ever regain that piece. Something would
always be missing in their lives, something would be
hollow.
"That's a lovely song dragon, did you write it?"
The youth looked at the form of one of his lovers.
Onyx met pale blue and a spark of emotion was shared
between the two. Simple, undying love.
"No I didn't. My friend Duo wrote it when we were
children.
I'm surprised I even remembered it.
It always seemed a haunting sorrowful tune.
So why did come here love?"
So Duo had written the song. It almost seemed that Duo
was calling for Heero before they had ever even met. The
song seemed to be asking for the angel by name. Her
thoughts left her as Millardo began to speak.
"I don't seem to remember..."
A flicker of light changed in Millardo's eyes.
The pale blue turned close to white.
"Indeed it is haunting tune dear dragon.
I remember now. Treize doesn't want you to come home
until sunset. I believe there will be a surprise for
you."
The Chinese boy smiled. He looked happier than she had
ever seen him. It was almost like he was another person.
Someone free from the chains the bound the Wufei she
knew.
"Wait by the rose garden tonight, I'm sure you'll be very
surprised at what you see. I'm sorry to say I must be
going. I have my own plans to add to tonight."
With that the tall man planted a kiss on Wufei's cheek
before making his way through the woods.
Soft crunching of leaves followed the blonde man away.
Wufei's eyes slowly slid closed and Dorothy found herself
pulled from the memory.
Dorothy sighed. Another memory had forced itself upon her. She silently viewed the gorden she found herself in. This must be the garden Millardo spoke of.
Shadows played on the soft petals of the roses. They're full red blossoms bobbing in the wind and their leaves rustling. She saw Wufei walkingto the garden as he gazed at the roses with soft eyes. The wind blew once again as
the once clear day was quickly becoming clouded over.
Lightning flashed across the sky, followed by the crack of thunder.
With a sound of rushing waves, rain began to fall in torrents. Dorothy watched as Wufei ran to the small covered bench but did not entirely escape the sudden rain.
The dampened boy studied the now soaked surroundings.
The red of the flowers darkened to near black.
It was a good thing this was a memory otherwise she would be soaked within a minute.
Lightning flashed again and DOrothy spotted Treize sleeping on a bench. What was he doing sleeping out in the rain?
SHe watched as Wufei braved the unceasing rain to check on his lover. Upon reaching the bench he stopped.
Crimson flowed from the rose at Treize's chest, staining the ground before being washed away by the rain. Blood.
"Treize?"
"He can't hear you, and if he can, he cannot respond. He's too weak now."
Wufei narrowed his eyes at the words, but ceased when he realized who the voice belonged to.
"Millardo? What happened?"
Wufei turned to see his love. Millardo stood before him,
soaking in the rain. His posture stiffened at his name.
"Millardo is dead. Call me Zechs. You needn't worry about Treize. He's served his purpose, as have you my dear dragon. So you had best be joining Treize and Millardo."
The blonde girl could see Wufei search for something in Zechs eyes. Possible a glimmer of hope. THat hope died as Wufei's eyes dimmed and lost their inner light.
Frost formed on the roses, killing the soft peatals and tender leaves. Her eyes widened as Wufei stumbled and fell to the ground. Her eyes spotted movment and she turned to see a transformed Duo and a normal Heero on either side of Zechs.
Duo attacked Zechs, sythe in hand, only to be blown away. DUo lay motionless upon the ground as Zechs moved torwards him. He reached out to touch Duo but turned.
Heero had begun to glow white. His blue eyes glowed violently and his pupls disappeared. In an instant Heero was replaced with a angelic form. THe angel swooped in and Zechs fell to the ground. As if on cue the angel passed out and returned to human form.
DOrothy stared as DUo moved. He slowly stood as Zechs burst into blue shperes and faded away. DUo moved to pick up the motionless Heero . A tear fell from DOrothy's eye as she was thrown back into reality.
