Author's Notes: Hi there, this is my first GW fanfic ever (at least posted) I am Shinigami's Voice, that will explain a lot. I am big Duo fan, so you'll imagine I'll be writing Duo stuff. Yeah, vive le Duo!!!

*** flashbacks***

So, let's get started. This fanfic is about how Heero, being Duo's best friend, and Quatre, being the empathic of the team, find out about Duo's tragic past, after an accident which left 02 with sad memories of his life. It takes place after the Endless Waltz, but sorry, Gundams weren't destroyed for me. And there's no peace yet. War is still here, and there are some people still fighting…



"Believing In Angels"

Chapter One.

-Trowa, fly to the right and destroy the Leos! Heero, watch out the MobileSuits at the front! Wufei, take the MS behind us! Duo and I will protect the ships that are trying to escape!…

Quatre was the one organizing the battle, while the others took the fight against the NewOZ patrols, who were trying to take control over the satellites in the area. The Gundam Pilots were now supported by Preventors, and they had a new mission to protect the colonies and their people.

-Yahoo!! We should come here more often! We got a great view!! Hey, buddy, move away! Or maybe you wanna meet your maker!!- Duo was taking the fight quite well, funny at least. DeathScythe flashed its green eyes while he destroyed two more suits.-Hey, Cat!! Are we over yet?

-No, Duo, there were 3 patrols. There is one more MS to find. Look out, guys, don't let it go any closer to the ships…-the strategist of the team warned.

-No problem there, my friend, I'll take it…-Duo quipped with a smile, while he searched in the screens the…

-Damn!!- 02 spat when he saw the MS firing against one ship.

-The ship!! Children!!- 04 screamed when he saw the faces through the glasses.

In one second, all the Gundams flew towards the MS, but it was too late. And the ship was right in the fire line.

-No!! Not again!! –Duo yelled, as the DeathScythe appeared from nothing, receiving the shot directly and crushing against the MS.



*********flashback********

-Sister Helen! Father Maxwell! Sister!! – a little kid screamed standing in front of a building surrounded by fire. Children's screams could be heard inside.

-Help! Help! There are just children!- the kid outside continued screaming, choking among the smoke as he tried to enter, but the flames grew bigger, consuming the place. The only sound in the surroundings was the dull roar of the OZ ships and MS, who were running away.

The kid continued there screaming his head off, tears streaming down his face, but no one was there. No one came. The burns in his hands as he forced himself into were severe, deep gashes. The bodies inside were scattered everywhere. Burned. Children burned alive. And a nun and a priest. Sister Helen's last words were buried in the kid's mind.

An hour later, an ambulance and a fireman truck arrived. But there was nothing standing there. Just a little kid, at the gates. A fireman took him into the ambulance because he seemed in the verge of passing out. The kid opened his amethyst eyes, tired, watching the wreckages of the church.

-No…- he whispered as he fainted.

************end flashback********



-Duo! Duo! - Quatre tried to communicate with DeathScythe, but it was useless. The other 4 Gundams landed where the 02 Gundam had crashed.

The DeathScythe's cockpit was surrounded by electric shocks and there was smoke coming out from it.

-Hurry! We got to get him out of there! –Quatre said to the others. Trowa opened the 1st pair of electric gates, but the cockpit was still sealed.

-Let me try- Wufei offered. Trowa moved away, and the Chinese pilot put a solid fist against the control board. The gates were activated and the cockpit opened.

Hanging from the belts and harness, with his hair down in disorder and with a line of blood crossing his face, Duo was unconscious among the electric shocks.

-At least Maxwell is alive- Wufei said coldly- This wasn't such a good idea from him…- 05 commented as Heero and Quatre pulled Duo out of the harness and taking him out the cockpit.

-But, Wufei, there will be a ship destroyed and many dead civilians if Duo didn't do something…- Quatre stated, defending the unconscious pilot.

-Maybe… but anyway, he was….- Wufei murmured folding his arms.

-Stupid- Heero completed the sentence, watching coldly the battered Duo.



*Shinigami's Voice*

So…I hope you guys like the beginning. Duo here says he was NO STUPID…

Duo: No way. I am NO STUPID!! That Wu-man and Heero better watch their backs…I will forgive them just because Shin's Voice says so…
