"It's okay Duo." Wufei said, putting his hand on the braided-pilot's shoulder. Kaylynn stopped breathing.
"You're going to tell us also Wufei?" She asked. The pilot nodded.
"We won't stop you. Go on Wufei. We're listening." Trowa said, more audible than ever. Wufei took a deep breath, and began.
"It must have been a week or so after Quatre tried to slit his wrists. I remember him coming to me with an innocent look on his face. I was cleaning my room I think.
" 'What's wrong Winner?' I asked harshly.
" 'Have anything sharp laying around?' He asked, innocent as a kitten.
" 'Here.' I remember tossing him something...a dagger I think and went on cleaning. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw him raise it to his chest. I shouted and kicked the weapon out his hand. I...I slammed him against the wall, saying that he was weak if he was going to take his life right in front of me.
" 'Don't be angry Wufei.' I heard him whisper. My blood froze. That was our weakness. He...he...he alwa-always knew us better than ourselves. Now...he's...he's..." Everyone watched as the spirit of an superior warrior fled Wufei, leaving the scared shell of a boy.
"Then what happened?" Kaylynn asked to anyone.
"He came to me." Trowa said, very audible.
"I was in my room putting up photos of Lion, when Quatre came in.
" 'Hey Trowa, where's your lion?' He asked in the normal fashion.
" 'Out back.' I said, motioning out the window.
" 'Is he angry?'
" 'Well, I haven't fed him in a week or so. Hey, I thought he didn't like you.'
" 'That's the point.' He began to walk out the door when I jumped, flipped half a dozen times before landing in front of him, heading him off. (A/N: Does he EVER WALK?) I grabbed his shoulder, and looked him straight in the eye as I sternly lectured him about the taking-your-own-life-won't-do-any-good. But...then...I saw past his eyes and into his heart. It had been turned into ashes. It was fire when Angel was around..."
"I don't understand. He didn't have to." Kaylynn whispered, holding her runes in her hands.
"But he did anyways. The hole inside of him was in the shape of Angel. You know that."
"I know Trow." (Hey! It rhymed! Baset: We're all very proud.)
"I feel sorry for Heero over there. He took it even worse..."
"You're going to tell us also Wufei?" She asked. The pilot nodded.
"We won't stop you. Go on Wufei. We're listening." Trowa said, more audible than ever. Wufei took a deep breath, and began.
