Taken Away (chapt.6)
By the pretty Penwriter
Releana was happy her friends were going to stay with her for a while it had been along time since she had seen them and she was happy. Right now she was in the nursery trying to change Sage's diaper he was a fussy little one his feet kicked up in the air to prevent her from completing the dastardly deed. She was trying to put the baby powder on his bottom to prevent chaffing well obviously he wasn't going to allow her she held down his legs with her hand and put the powder on his bottom then placed on the diaper he was finally changed.
"Why do I get so much trouble from you…why don't you be nice like your sister?" she asked as she held him in her arms he was pouting but not glaring he never glared at her.
She kissed his stomach he giggled she did it again and he let out squeals of laughter. Releana smiled he smiled back at her she always knew how to make him smile no matter what she knew how to make him smile. She gently pulled his pajamas on him and placed him in his crib and glanced out the closed window she looked down at herself she had baby powder all over her hair that was now out of her neat ponytail. She had given Sage his bath earlier that was why she was changing his diaper. She had to give Tracy her bath again because she flipped her spoon from her baby food and had gotten baby food all over her and Milliardo. Releana picked up the messy baby girl and hit the intercom. Dr. Harrison picked up.
"Hello." He greeted
"Well Dr. Harrison I'm giving Tracy a bath and I'm taking a bath with her may you please come up here and watch Sage?" she asked usually Sage could sit in his carrier and be there when she took a bath but today she felt like a long bath and Sage was a very impatient little boy.
"Alright Releana I'll be right there." He said he threw the apple he was eating in the trash. He quickly walked up the stairs to the nursery he picked up Sage out of his crib there were toys scattered all over the floor so he set Sage on the floor he sat down Indian-style in front of him and they played with the toys. Releana left the room with Tracy. She stepped into her room and changed into a bathrobe she got the tiny tub she set it up in the tub and she ran warm water it couldn't be hot. She poured the baby soap in the tiny tub for Tracy and had a bar of soap for her self. She took off Tracy's small pajamas and set her in the tiny tub while Releana turned off the water and dropped her bathrobe she stepped into the bath she reached up and undid her ponytail her honey blonde hair cascaded down her back she laid in the tub and first cleaned Tracy who was splashing around in the water. Releana giggled and washed the little baby when Tracy had been cleaned Releana cleaned herself then wallowed in the water. Tracy continued splashing the water around then stopped she started crying for an unknown reason Releana reluctantly sat up when she heard a crash coming from the direction of the nursery she shot out of the tub threw on her bathrobe and grabbed Tracy she raced down the hall to the nursery and flew through the door. She saw two feet just lying there when she stepped in for a closer look she gasped. Dr. Harrison was on the floor his neck twisted at an odd angle. Tears started to pour out of Releana's eyes but her eyes grew wider.
"Sage? Sage…Sage!" she cried out looking for her son he was nowhere to be found in the nursery the window was opened Releana looked out she saw a figure clad in black running away from her estate with a small bundle in his arms Releana recognized it as Sage his little fists were flying in the air he was crying hysterically reaching back to the window…to Releana. Releana's legs buckled beneath her as she fell to the floor Tracy in her arms crying and she was crying as well. Milliardo quickly came into the room and saw Releana there on the floor crying as well as Tracy he grasped his little sister gently and held her as she cried. He looked around the room Dr. Harrison was lying on the floor his neck broken he didn't see his nephew anywhere.
"Releana what happened?" he asked
She shook her head hair falling in her face "They took him Milliardo…they took my son…they took my son." She repeated
She closed her eyes she had passed out he gently picked her up and laid her on her bed and pulled the covers over her. He picked up Tracy who had stopped crying and was now whimpering. He dressed the little baby and held her in his arms he walked downstairs. Noin had run up half the stairs everyone else behind her tears were building up in Milliardo's eyes but he didn't let them fall.
"Duo…call Heero we need his help to locate his son." He said softly as he continued down the stairs
"Milliardo…someone took Sage?" asked Noin
The back of his head bobbed up and down.
"Oh God who would do such a thing?" asked Midii
"What about Releana is she okay?" asked Sally
Milliardo placed his thumb in Tracy's palm she grasped on to it.
"Releana passed out she's sleeping right now." Milliardo said softly
"Milliardo why do we need Heero we can…" started Duo
"Duo you know that Heero is the best one for finding people …and he needs to know he's a father anyway…call him secure the line and give him the address…tell him to come immediately…Noin please tell Duo the number." He asked
He walked into another room silently Noin quickly scribbled Heero's number on a piece of paper and handed it to Duo then ran after her husband. She ran into the other room and closed the door behind her. She rested her hand on Milliardo's shoulder he turned and looked into her eyes she could see his eyes heavy with tears she too was holding unshed tears. She rubbed his back gently.
"They took our nephew Lu…and I don't know if we'll be able to get him back." He told her as he looked into her large eyes glistening with tears.
"Milliardo…you're my husband and I've known you for over nine years…I know you and I know that you'll stop at nothing to find you're nephew." She reassured him
He weakly smiled down at his wife.
Duo frowned he didn't feel like calling Heero but Heero was his best friend even though Duo was angry that he was the reason for Releana's pain he hesitated at dialing his number. Hilde walked up to him and stood next to him she rested her hand on his shoulder.
"I just can't do it babe I can't call Heero the man that has caused Releana so much pain…I can't Releana is like one of my best friends I can't." he told her while shaking his head thick chocolate bangs swaying in his violet eyes.
Hilde moved her hand from his shoulder to his chin she turned his chin so he was looking at her.
"Duo…Releana still loves Heero and Heero may have been the one to cause her pain but he may be her only salvation. Those two need each other Duo and even if Heero doesn't know it yet he loves Releana and Duo Heero needs to know that he is a father now no man deserves to be denied the knowledge that he has a child." She told him softly.
Duo nodded solemnly he had to he dialed the number.
Heero had hidden away on colony L6 in a small dingy apartment he himself was a wreck he didn't know that he cared for Releana so much in fact you could say that he loved her. Right now it was two o'clock in the afternoon and he was sprawled on his bed last night he had bought a bottle of whiskey and had drunken the whole thing right now he had a major hangover he could just take a special type of pill and it would be gone but now he wanted the pain to keep it with him to punish himself for letting Releana go. He ran his hand through his back length unruly hair he hadn't cut it he didn't care and he remembered he used to joke about Duo's hair his cracked and blistered lips turned up to a smile those were the days. He got up and went into the bathroom and brushed his teeth he looked at his refection in the mirror he was 18 and already he had to shave the four day old stubble on his chin stuck out.
"Now they all hate me." He muttered
He sneered and punched the mirror the glass cracked he punched it again this time it shattered to the floor. He stared at the shattered pieces just like his shattered heart. His fist was stinging he looked at it pieces of glass were embedded in his bloody knuckles. He frowned he got the first aid kit out of the cabinet first he took out the tweezers and removed the glass from his knuckles. He placed the broken pieces of glass on a paper towel when he finished removing the glass and smeared on antibiotic ointment he then wrapped the white sterile cloth around his knuckles and tied it. The vid phone rang Heero shot up this number was unlisted and no one knew it unless they were looking for him Heero's heart soared with hope maybe it was one of his fellow ex-pilots or maybe it was Releana if it was Releana Heero swore he would breakdown crying and ask for her forgiveness but the harsh reality slammed into him they all hated him it was probably someone with the wrong number. Tears started to build up in his eyes he slowly answered it.
"Hello" he said thickly the tears threatening to fall his eyes focused on the floor.
"Hello…hello…Heero is that you and you made fun of my hair." A voice rang out through the apartment
Heero's eyes shot up.
"D…Dou why would you call me I thought you all hated me?" he asked sadly
"Whoa what happened to your usual greeting 'this better be good or I'll kill you'?" asked Duo
"That died away when Releana left Duo right now I'm just happy to hear from any of you I've missed you guys." He told him his eyes still glistening with unshed tears.
"All right I'll cut it…Heero none of us hate you we're all just pissed at you there's a big difference you're still my best bud and…well the reason for my call is that…Releana needs your help Heero and I think only you can help her." He told Heero
Heero stood in shocked Releana had asked him to call…and they didn't hate him. Heero smiled broadly and he started laughing with joy the tears falling he didn't care if Duo saw him crying or laughing.
"YES DUO I'd do anything for any of you just so you can forgive me!" he exclaimed
Now it was Duo's turn to stand in shock this was Heero he had changed and dramatically he now displayed his emotions.
"Well…Heero is this a secured line??" asked Duo
"Well no wait a second…" he said he dusted off his laptop which he had abandoned ten months ago he hooked it up to the vid phone and typed in a few keys a red light beeped on signaling that the line was secure.
"Okay it's secure shoot." He said
"Well we're on colony L7 6th district up the mountain side you'll come to a two floor house with a wood finish that's where we are so hurry up Heero…Releana really needs you." He finished and hung up.
Heero quickly memorized the directions he packed all his clothes in one duffle bag he went online and bought the most latest shuttle ticket which was at four so he had enough time to get straightened up. First he swept up the broken glass and emptied it into the trash can then he showered and washed his hair he shaved his stubble and put on lotion he'd buy some cologne and put it on later he dressed in a white dress shirt and black pants with black dress shoes. He couldn't look at himself because he broke the mirror maybe that wasn't such a good idea. He grabbed his wallet and pushed it into his pocket he grabbed his duffle bag and walked to the nearest barbershop.
Duo stood there after he had hung up surprise, shock and joy flooded through his mind. Maybe there's hope for him yet he smirked his smirk turned into a smile.
"What are you smiling about Duo?" asked Hilde
"Well Heero…oh never mind you'll find out when he gets here." He said secretly
"Duo…Duo! Are you hiding a secret from me come on tell me please what are you hiding from me oh Duo…Duo please tell me what's going on." asked Hilde she always loved a good secret or surprise
"My name is Duo Maxwell I have brown hair and violet eyes I weigh 1…" he was cut off by Hilde letting out a frustrating cry and stomping off.
He laughed to himself she won't be finding out anything from him the surprise and shock of the new Heero might even give Hilde a heart attack.
