Chapter 12: Sealed Kiss
The severe glare Duo had didn't seem to have any effect on the perfect solider. Heero stared emotionlessly at the group, apparently waiting for them to do something. It didn't matter what Duo had in mind, all he knew is that he was going to show no mercy. Some best friend the Japanese Pilot had turned out to be, betraying them like he did. Perhaps Heero had been manipulated by Kenji; but the fury kept Duo from seeing that.
"Where is Usagi, Heero?" He demanded, pointing his gun at his so-called best friend, glaring at him.
Heero smirked, folding his arms. "What did I just say?" He said sarcastically, as if Duo were some kind of child who didn't hear it the first time. It annoyed him to have to repeat himself. "I told you. She belongs to Prince Kenji."
Duo scowled, narrowing his eyes. "How dare you! She belongs to no one but herself."
"Tell that to Kenji-sama." Heero replied, ignoring Duo's earlier comment.
"Tell me where he is, and I will." Duo said, his lips curving into a thin demanding smile.
Heero chuckled mockingly, closing his eyes. "I'll make you a deal. If you defeat me, I'll take you right to him."
"Yosh. " The braided American smirked. "Sounds good, I'm going to enjoy making you suffer." Haruka and Wufei took a step forward but were halted by Duo's uplifted hand. "Stay out of this, this is between me and Heero." He stated, keeping his eyes on his Pilot zero one.
The same insane laughter that had not been heard since Duo had first met Heero echoed through the empty narrow halls. Clearly, the Japanese pilot had taken it as a joke and found it amusing. "You're all talk Duo." He continued to laugh.
Without hesitation, and filled with furry, Duo lunged at his so-called best friend and punched him right in the jaw. "Urusai!" He yelled, glaring at Heero with much hatred.
Unlike Duo, Heero closed his eyes, not bothering to wipe the narrow stream of blood that trailed down the side of his chin from his cut lip. As a matter of fact, another disturbing smirk graced his lips when he faced the braided American, his Prussian blue eyes glazed with hidden anger and emptiness. "Is that all you have to offer?" He questioned in a rather mean tone. "Because if it is, then you're foolish." Heero added. "And a real idiot to challenge me."
"Am I?" Duo's arched an eyebrow. "I'll do what is needed to get Usagi back. You nor Kenji will stand in my way." He promised, pointing his gun at Heero's head.
It didn't seem to bother Heero at all. He stood with the same self-confident poise as he always done, staring at Duo with firm eyes. "Then do it Duo. Kill me." He dared him. "I'm waiting."
A scowl covered Duo's face, seemingly ready to pull the trigger, but what was stopping him from doing it? He held back, for what? Sure his hand was shaking, and his hand held the gun tightly, but this wasn't his style. It was either that or his conscious reminded him that Heero was being manipulated. "Damn you." He whispered, hesitantly lowering the weapon, looking away. "Haruka, you and the rest of the Outer Senshi can deal with him right?" He asked, glancing up at her.
The Senshi of Uranus smiled faintly. "Hai. That is what we're here for." She chuckled. "Hm, besides, I think it's time you find Koneko-chan." She included. "Hurry, we'll handle this."
Duo nodded, turning toward his fellow Gundam Pilots. "Come on." He motioned for them to follow him. Wufei, Trowa, and Quatre did as they were told, and ran past the Outer Senshi we were facing of with Heero, blocking him from going past them, straining to catch up to their braided teammate who was already halfway down the hall.
"World Shaking!"
"Deep Submerge!"
"Dead Scream!"
They heard the their cries, not looking back as they heard Heero's cries of pain, and yells of rage.
Heero winced at all three powers combined into one, hitting him in the chest, and sent him flying backwards until he slammed right into the wall. A groan escaped his lips as his felt the impact of his body hit the hard wall, and then he collapsed onto the cold marble floor face first. He ignored the pain, and forced himself to get up, narrowing his eyes on the Senshi. "Your too late, even if you find Usagi, she belongs to Prince Kenji." He said harshly.
"We shall see." Haruka retored, sneering at him. "Until then, we'll make you pay for betraying us."
The perfect solider laughed lightly. "Should I be scared?"
"You tell us." Hotaru stared at him emotionlessly, her eyes threatening.
The Palace was certainly huge, and Duo along with his fellow companions had gotten lost countless times. A maze, that is what the halls seemed like, just like the numerous set of stairs that lead to even more floors.
"Kuso. How many more steps are we going to have to climb?" Duo complained, out of breath, fanning himself with his hand. "And how many more halls are we going to get lost in."
"You sound like a little kid." Wufei commented.
"Did I mention how many rooms there are to look in?"
"Shut up." The Chinese Pilot rolled his eyes.
"Would you two cut it out?" Quatre shook his head, annoyed. "You're acting immature."
Duo flushed, and Wufei frowned. Trowa smiled faintly, not saying anything, but silently agreeing with his Arabian friend.
"What floor are we only anyway?" Duo asked, changing the subject.
"The ninth I think." Quatre answered.
With a sighed, Duo looked from room to room, searching for Usagi. The rest of his teammates did the same, keep an eye out for her. No matter how long it took, they had to find her. It felt like time was running out too.
They had nearly passed another room when Duo saw a pair of blond odangos; his breath was caught in his throat when he saw what was really going on. Fear and shock were present in his eyes and he was frozen in place. "Usagi……….." His voice trailed off as he saw her body go limp in another's arms, with her lips still sealed in a kiss. What shocked him the most was who was holding her. It looked like him, but he knew only one person had that kind of power to take on his form. "How dare you!" He shouted.
