Shooting Stars Pt. 2
The Secret's Out

Duo glared at the man in front of them. Relena shouted at him, "Why are you doing this, huh?"
Quatre, Wu Fei and Trowa ran over, and stood in front the Princess, blocking her from Jack.
"Move!" Jack commanded. When the pilots didn't move, he flicked the safety on his gun off. "That's it! All of you, move to Relena's room! Now! You don't have your Gundams here to protect you!"
Duo and Quatre gasped. "How does he know?" He whispered to Relena. Not waiting for an answer, Jack lunged forward, pushed Trowa out of the way, grabbed Relena by the wrist, and pointed the tip of the gun at her head.
"Move," he said, deathly quiet. The pilots trudged up the stairs, in a line, Jack and Relena bringing up the rear. He turned around to face the audience. "If anyone tries to come and rescue them, I will kill the Princess!"
Since Heero can't help her right now, I'll take his place to his extent, Duo thought, following Jack.
From high above and ignored, Heero watched, anger surging through him.
"Get your hands off her," he growled, staring at this Jack man. Everyone was silent as he pushed them into the doors at the top of the staircase; the same floor Heero was on.
"Go after her," a voice behind Heero made him jump.
"Zechs," Heero said, turning around to face Relena's brother.
"He doesn't know about you, since he saw them last time. You have an advantage. Go now. Use the balcony, since he'll block off the door to her room." He shook his head, his platiumn blond locks moving with him. "Hurry."
Heero nodded, and took off down the hall, smiling vaguely at the thought he was thinking. So, Zechs knew three years ago how I entered Relena's room to talk to her. He then must know about the times when we'd hide and sneak kisses in secret crannies here in the palace.
*******
"Relena, sit down on the bed. You, Braid-Boy, sit the that chair next to her," Jack instructed, pointing his gun at where Duo should sit. He lowered himself next to Relena, who was whimpering.
"It's okay, Relena. We won't let him hurt you," Duo said, glaring at Jack.
Jack ignored him and pointed the gun at Relena again. "Mr. Silent." He said, addressing Trowa. "You and Blondie sit next to Braid-Boy. You too." He stared pointedly at Wu Fei who muttered something about "Weakling boyfriends".
"And now, for my final performance"—Jack went off describing exactly what he was planning on doing to them.
Duo sat in stupor. He was thinking of when they were about to leave the ballroom.
::Flashback::
"Move!" Jack ordered. They slowly moved up the marble stairs. Duo glanced up to see Heero watching them. Their eyes met, and then Heero looked away back at Relena and Jack. His eyes narrowed angrily, and he said something. Duo made it out as 'Get your hands off her' before Zechs appeared behind him.
Jack nudged him with the gun in his back. "Move it." They then disappeared into the hallway.
::End Flashback::
"Why are you telling us all this?" Duo interrupted. "It's not we're actually listening."
"Duo!!" Quatre gasped, turning to face him. "Shut up!"
Jack grinned, which was really scary.
"I'm telling you this because of a certain reason. You won't be around when Relena and I leave." Jack snarled.
Duo blinked a couple of times at him, then managed to get out, "excuse me?"
It was the last he heard before the metal of the gun made contact with his head. Sorry Heero. I tried, he thought, before he saw all black.
*******
Heero gritted his teeth as he saw Jack hit Duo over his head. A bit of blood tricked down the side of Duo's head on seep onto his chin, finally dripping onto his pants.
Jack turned to Quatre and did the same thing. Quatre slumped to the side of his chair. It was only then did Heero realize that Jack had tied the pilot's hands behind the chair. Trowa's eyes widened, and said something to Jack.
He snarled something back at him, and hit him with more force than he did with Duo and Quatre.
Wu Fei stared at his fellow comrades and yelled loudly at Jack before he was hit, "YOU WEAKLING!!"
Heero, despite the mission, chuckled. Only Wu Fei would say something like that.
He watched Jack turn to Relena. He said something, and Relena jumped up. "How dare you!" She said to him, but Heero read her lips.
Jack then muttered something more, and this time Relena slapped him across the face. Heero again chuckled, thinking how cute she looked when she got mad.
*******
"How dare you!" Relena shrieked at Jack. She stared at him, anger burning up inside her. He had just said that they were pawns in a game to get Heero, and that he would kill her friends once Relena wasn't around.
"Shut up or I'll kill them now," he muttered darkly.
Relena snapped and slapped him. Jack grabbed her wrist before she raised it again, and then leaned down near her. Her eyes widened.
"You'll do as I say, since you will soon be mine," he whispered, "Or you're little Gundam friends will die…in front of you."
He then turned his face towards her and kissed her, sloppily. Relena was disgusted and pushed him away—or tried to. He then grabbed her hands and pulled them together with one hand, and with the other he grabbed her jaw, and made her face him.
"You will marry me, or it's the end of Braid-Boy," he then pointed the gun at Duo's unconscious head.
"No! Duo!" Relena cried, tears silently pouring down her cheeks.
"Oh, Princess Relena, don't cry. You won't need to soon…" Jack said, stroking her head roughly and leered at her. She became scared and pushed away with all her might, but he held onto her and kissed her again, long and deep with tongue.
Glass shattered and Jack pulled away from Relena. Standing in front of them with a very pissed off young man, Relena's age, pointing a gun at Jack.
"Get your filthy hands off her." He said, his voice in pure fury, and a death look in his Prussian eyes.
Heero?! Relena thought, staring at him.
Woah…Heero finally made it! And his pretty PO'ed…What's gonna happen to them? Is Duo and the others okay? What's this Jack's plan for Relena? Find out in part three of Shooting Stars: Confession!
