Shinigami Never Dies
Chapter Three: Found At Last
Trowa sighs out loud. Walking toward Quatre from the window, " It's been over a month. I don't think Heero want as to find him, or else we could have found him already, considered all the help we've got from all your man and Relena Peacecraft." Putting his hands on Quatre's shoulder to comfort his worried love, " Don't worry little one. He'll come back someday. I know he will, after what ever he's doing." Trowa tighten his grip on Quatre's shoulder, encourage him to get some rest, " Come on, you need to rest."
Quatre sighs quietly and get up from his seat. Trowa lead his angel to his bed and lay him down. As Quatre's head landed on the pillow, he imminently fell asleep. " Sleep well my little one." Trowa give him a kiss on the forehead and walked away to his desk. 'Heero you better come back soon, I hate to see my Quatre being sad.'

--------------Duo's POV--------------
'This is FANTASTIC!' I entered my room quietly, trying not to let my excitement woke up my room mate. I finally know who I am. Although I have no idea what he's talking about, cause I don't remember all those, but that doesn't matter. 'So my name is Duo Maxwell, I wonder why my parents gave me another name, Travis Avenline. Oh well, they have their reason they are my parents after all.' I lay down on my bed trying to sleep, but all those funny thoughts all came through my mind. 'Is David related to me? I feel like connected to him somehow. It's probably the last names. We are all called MAXWELL!'
I've been hanging around David for a month now since he told me my real name. Ha I still kept the name Travis, just so people don't get confused. So I had the same personality as before eh, not much of changes there. David told me that I was a assistant of a scientist but he never told me about the scientist nor how I was assisting him.
" You are just a ordinary student like everyone else that's all." Yeah so David told me about my everyday life, but somehow, I have a feeling that he's not telling me everything. ' What the heck. Go to sleep.' I kept telling my mind the same thing. 'Sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep. SLEEP!'
------------Heero's POV----------------
I sat down in front of the computer. ' How can I tell him the truth.' So I didn't expect Duo to lose his memories. 'Maybe it's from the explosion' It's been a month since the day I told him his real name. Duo and I became best friends but I wish we were more then friends. ' He's happier without his painful memories. He…' I got up and walk over to my bed. I haven't tell him that he is a gundam pilot. I can't, not when he's finally enjoying the life he always wanted. All I said to him as that he's just a ordinary student like everyone else. ' What should I do?' I lay down on my bed ' Maybe I should get some sleep first.'
------------------------------------------
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
While waiting for the final tournament of basketball games of the nations to start, students were all excited because it was the last week of school. Everybody chatting away about their summer vacation, what they'll do over the summer, their over all mark for the year…anything you can think of.
" What are you going to do during summer huh, David?"
"…"
"Come one, you can tell us"
"…"
"What are you gonna do over the summer?"
Heero's getting annoyed, " I'm going NO WHERE doing NOTHING. Now, LEAVE ME ALONE!"
" Why don't you come to my house for the summer?" Heero turned around and found Travis standing behind him grinning, " I'm sure my parents would love to meet with you."
" Your…House? Parents?" Heero said in disbelieve. ' That's right, the couple who found Duo. Hmm…..'
" You sure you're parents would let me stay if I go with you?" Heero asked, unsure of what to do.
" Of course" Duo happily walked toward the crowd dragging Heero along with him, "but first, we have to have a game of basketball."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
------------Trowa's POV-------------
We sat in the very back, waiting for the game to start. Quatre has been working in his office for way too long. It's time for him to relax from the search of Heero Yuy. I decided to take him to the Final Basketball Tournament of the nation since the Winner's company founds it. From the start, I thought this is a great idea, but now, I'm not sure any more. It just make Quatre more depressed because…basketball was DUO's favorite game. Everybody starts to cheer as the two teams enter the arena. Greyson High school and Kiliewanka High school. I sat quietly beside my angel, hoping he's not too upset. Suddenly, his head shot up as he heard the cheerleaders of Greyson High school chatting about sone guys.
" Go Travis, go Travis. Go David, go David. Greyson High school is the BEST! No one can beat us as long as Travis Avenline and David Maxwell are on our team
" Yeah, Travis is sooooooo cute!"
" Not to mention David Maxwell. He's so handsome!"
'David Maxwell.' I didn't really cared about the first name, but his last name did catch my attention. I eyed my angel as he listens to the conversation. He turns his head slowly toward me and said in a shaking voice, " Did you heard that? Maxwell, Maxwell, Duo's alive!" I was hurt by that sentence, Duo can't be alive because we all saw his gundam explode with him in it. " It might be someone else, someone with the same last name. His full name is David Maxwell, not Duo Maxwell." I rose from my seat, " Come on, maybe we should go home." Taking His hand, I slowly walk toward the exit. I have no idea what's happening, but something made us turned around.
Even though we were far away, but I would not mistaken that long chestnut braid that flashed in front on my eyes. 'Duo…but that's impossible!' Quatre collapsed on that floor as I carefully pick him up again. Quietly I said to my love, " Come on, let's go home, we have some research to do." He said nothing but nod. Stars starts to shine in his eyes again. There is a hope.
-----------------------------
Trowa and Quatre quickly return to the mansion. Without a single word, Quatre imminently start his search on 'David Maxwell' the result was very shocking. For the first time in 2 months, Quatre laughed happily, " WE FOUND HEERO! WE FOUND HEERO!" Trowa stand beside Quatre quietly. 'So Heero took Duo's last name and named himself David Maxwell. Then who's the one with the braid?' Trowa suddenly hit with realization as he quickly sat down in front of the computer and click away on the keyboard.
" What are you doing Trowa?" Quatre looked at Trowa but he was too shock to say anything as he saw the computer monitor. He just stood there, face pale as white paint
Trowa was in quite a shock himself too. On the computer screen there's the student name along with his status and picture.
Quatre finally back to reality, " Trowa…Duo…Duo…" He broke into quiet sobs, " HE'S ALIVE!"
Trowa smile brightly down at his love, " Yes He's alive, we should phone Wufei right away and go to Greyson High school and get David Maxwell and…Travis Avenline."
'Finally, we found you Heero! And our lost friend too, Duo Maxwell.'
Chapter Four: Reunite
The military base blows up in no time. Hundreds of lives were lost during the explosion. Five unknown mobile suits were the cause of this explosion. But somehow, he was now afraid of the five devilish machines. It seems like he known them for a while, like friends, best friends. In a flash, a thought hit him. They are the Gundams. With a sudden noise, five figures jumped off the mobile suit and looked strait at him, shadows covered their faces so he can not see them. With a chill ran down his spine, he decided to get away from the gundam pilots. He stopped as he saw a very familiar figure stepped out of the dark shadow, holding a gun that pointed strait at him. David! He blinked a few times wishing that this is only a dream. Sadly, another figure stepped out of the shadow that shocks him to the limit. He…he…he's… ME!
As fast as he could, he took off running toward the other direction. But the figures caught on to him.
" O meo Korosu."
" Ow, come on, you always say that but you never really succeed Heero"
" Shut up you braided baka and let him do the work"
"…"
" We don't have to kill him…just let him go"
He trembled in fear as the figure named Heero pulled the trigger.
-BANG-
========================
Travis woke up covered in sweat. ' This is the fifth time this week.' What was is all about? Why would David be in my dream? Why is there…
-------------------------------------
The threesome standing in front gate of the school. "Well, this is it. Greyson High School." The tall one said as the beautiful blond pulled him toward the door.
" Hold it right there Quatre, how do you know where to look? It's lunch time, they could be everywhere."
Quatre smile sweetly which made the tall one jealous of the Chinese pilot, " Don't worry Wufei, they could only be in one place…The basketball court. Am I right Trowa"
The tall one smile down at his angel, " That's technically correct, little one."
The three of them walked toward the gate.
At the same time, a figure in pink dress stepped out of the car, " So here is were he was hiding." She finish her sentence as she walked through the side door.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Meanwhile on the basketball court. Girls were chatting and the guys were playing the basketball.
" This is gonna be our last game. After today, SUMMER STARTS!" Travis yelled happily as the game starts.
Heero sitting on the bench watching Duo. He decided to sit out for this round, just to watch the braided beauty beating, winning every game. After few minutes of sitting out, Heero found out that it was a very bad idea on to join the game because all girls started to surround him.
Suddenly all every body stopped and gasped as a strange new girl walked up to Heero from behind.
" Is that Relena Dorlin?"
" What is she doing here?"
The chatter went on quietly as Heero turned around and found Relena standing behind him.
" So we meet again Heero." She smile at him, " I've been looking for you for quiet a while now."
" What are you doing here? Go away and leave me alone."
Everybody paused for a sec and the chatter went on. " David knows her?"
Travis walk up to Heero cheerfully, " Hey David, would you like to introduce to your girlfriend here?"
Heero glare at Duo for the tease as Relena's eyes widened in shock, " D…D…Duo Maxwell?!"
Travis blinked for few times and turn to her in interest, " You know me too? How?" Then he turned around to Heero, " Why didn't you tell me about her David?"
Heero was speechless as Relena asked in confusion, " David?"
" WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE RELENA? GET AWAY, NO WOMEN ALLOWED!"
" Yes, David. His name is David Maxwell."
Voices appeared behind Heero that made him turned around. Standing before him, is a pissed looking Wufei, emotionless Trowa and a very happy Quatre. With a swift motion, Quatre imminently glue himself on to Duo.
" Duo! YOU'RE ALIVE! YOU'RE ALIVE"
Travis returned the hug in confusion, " Of course I'm alive, why wouldn't I. And may I ask who are you?"
Everyone was shocked. Quatre slowly back away in tears as Trowa hold on to his shoulder reassuring him.
" He lost his memory." Heero said quietly as Travis turn around to face Heero.
" Why, why didn't you tell me? Why didn't you tell me about them? WHY DAVID?" In a flash, his dream appeared in front of him once again.
With a sudden noise, five figures jumped off the mobile suit and looked strait at him, shadows covered their faces so he can not see them. With a chill ran down his spine, he decided to get away from the gundam pilots. He stopped as the five of them stepped out of the shadow. David! And… ME! And…
OH MY!!!!!!
With the sudden realization, Travis collapsed on the ground. Fainted
Heero quickly kneel down beside his worriedly. ' What's the matter with you Duo.' With that, Heero carefully picked him up and walked out of the school ground with Duo in his arms and followed by Trowa, Quatre, Wufei and Relena. Leave everyone in the school who was watching this scene confused and shock.
