Author's notes: Almost done, my first GW story. Yay!!!
Trowa was worried. Duo was now most likely fighting the Queen and they'd found no trace of Quatre. "Where are you little one?" he murmured as Heero killed yet another vampire. They'd searched most of this level and only the Queen's inner lair was left. Trowa looked to Heero and silently they nodded and headed towards where Duo was fighting.
Duo growled in anger and kicked the Queen, and she flew back and hit a wall at the opposite side of the room. She slumped, unconscious and Duo blinked before turning to Wufei and Quatre. Wufei held the smaller boy in his arms, his hand still on his neck "Oh god, Q, what did she do to you." Duo muttered, his brows furrowed as he took in the blood on the arabian's head and face. "Hurry Maxwell, there isn't much time." Wufei interrupted Duo's thoughts and he nodded, "right Wufei." and lifted his stake, he stood over the Queen and plunged the stake down. The Queen's eyes snapped open and she grabbed the hand, slamming it into the wall behind her, breaking it. Duo screamed in pain as his wrist shattered and barely noticed through the pain the Queen now had him in her grip. His eyes widened as he realised the Queen was going to kill him. "No!" A shout from the entrance came and Duo recognised it as Heero. "I let them down all of them." Tears came unbidden to his eyes and the Queen pierced the skin of his neck, beginning to drink away his life. "Don't give up Duo" a voice broke into his thoughts. "Quatre?" Duo asked quietly. "He's here Duo" the demon joined in. "We can help you, Duo." Quatre said quietly "Please let me." Duo nodded, the tears now stopping his vision and gasped as he felt both Quatre and the Demon merge within him.
Heero had to hurry. He couldn't explain how he knew, but something was wrong. The feeling of dread got more intense the closer they came to the fight. Entering the room, his eyes widened, Duo was being drained by the Queen, "No!" he shouted and tried to get to the boy. A growling from the door got his attention and he turned to see Trowa already fighting the horde of vampires who'd all converged into the room. He growled and began to fight again.
Wufei watched, Quatre's life still fading as Duo was drained, and Heero and Trowa entered the fray. A vampire stood in front of him and he narrowed his eyes, "I won't let you win." he snarled and drew a stake, beginning to protect the blonde boy.
Something was wrong, and the Queen knew it. The Slayer was nodding under her fangs and then he stiffened. A burning sensation merged into her mouth and she pulled back, his blood was burning her. "NO!!" she screamed as a burst of white light filled the room, and killed her vampire followers. Duo turned to face her, his eyes a light purple and standing beside him, she could swear she saw the younger warrior's almost transparent figure. Both lifted their arms, brought them together and the strongest psychic attack she'd ever seen errupted and struck her heart. She screamed again as the light burnt away the demon in her, leaving her a young woman. She looked to the two Slayers and whispered, "Thankyou..." her figure fading away into nothing. Duo turned to the three remaining pilots' "It's over" he stated, falling back into the darkness.
