THE LOSS OF DUO MAXWELL
CHAPTER FIVE
She flicked her hands, and a chair behind Trowa whirled around and around. Trowa lowered his eyes and blushed. He had thought she was going to kill him. His hand swung limply to his side where his gun brushed against his thigh.
"Oh yeah, about that" she put up one long glittering manicured finger and wagged it at him. Then she put her hand out flat, palm up. Trowa's pistol melted in his hand as he stared in astonishment, and twisted it's way liquidly to its hand. It puddled there in a silver blob. "Ooh, hot." It said as though this was funny. Gently it blew on the blob and it turned solid again. Once again the shiny pistol was pointed at the thing, but the time it lay in it's own hand. It passed it's hand over the gun and it disappeared.
"Wha…what are you?" was all Trowa could manage. He was still in shock and more than a little scared.
"Oh chas liem*! You are so silly sometimes. Well, in my language I am an 'amin soon', a shape shifter."
"A shape shifter?"
"What are you? A fucking echo?" the thing was bored, and quickly showed it by disappearing and reappearing a second later sitting cross-legged on top of a lamp.
"Who sent you here? I bet you're the one who kidnapped Duo!" as soon as the words left his mouth he wished he could take them back. The things eyes had turned milky, then black, and its hair was whipping around it like there were high speed winds surrounding them. It floated off the lampshade and resumed standing position in mid air, coming towards him with arms stretched out in front of it.
"Are you suggesting that I, one of the elite Taycer would purposely harm lord Shinigami?" her hand was now enclosing his neck and she had him pinned against the wall. She had lifted him like he weighed nothing. "You disgust me!" she spat at him. "You keep Shinigami trapped inside this hell hole, and then when I free my lord, you accuse me of kidnapping him?" she had just started lifting him higher in the air in preparation for throwing him across the room when
"What the hell is going on…here?" Heero, disturbed by the noise of the screeching girl, had come downstairs to investigate and been greeted by the sight of the clown floating in mid air with a blond attached to his neck.
"Lord Yuy!" the girl dropped Trowa, who lay on the floor fighting for breath, and floated over to Heero. She descended and then surprised both boys by bowing her head. Her hair fell in front of her face while she carried on talking. "I had no idea that you were here, please accept my apologies for disturbing you." Stunned, all Heero could manage was a feeble
"Hee?" The look on his face exactly mirrored that of Trowa's.
"I'm not sure what you mean." Started Trowa, trying to explain. "Heero isn't a lord, he's just- AAAAAIIIIIIIII!"
Her arm had changed into a machete and she had it pinned up against his throat.
"Mortal, is it not enough for you to insult the taycer? Must you now rain attack upon lord Yuy?"
"Please, call me Heero." Once he had seen that she was evidently not going to harm him, Heero was acting normal again. In fact, he could even crack a smile at Trowa's misfortune. The banged baka did seem to put his foot in it. "What is your name? Why are you here anyway?"
She released Trowa and turned to Heero. "My name is Nanestnanglay. Well, that my DiShin name. I don't doubt that it is too much for mortals to remember. My english name is Lily. I am here on a mission to free lord shinigami from his captors. We had no idea that you were here too, lord-, Heero."
"A mission? But you're no more than 11 years old! You're too young to be on a mission!" Heero was baffled. Who would she be on a mission for?
"I am 15 years old," she replied indignantly. "I am almost as old as you. If I remember correctly, all of you Gundam pilots started training when you were young. It is the same in my culture. I was born into the Taycer, and since I was 4 have been fighting for them." Bored now, she popped on top of the lamp again. Once she was comfortable, she resumed her story. "I started off as a spy. I was stationed in various buildings where I learned of things about lord shinigami and the Gundam pilots who were to save the earth. After that, it was military work. Mostly assassinations." As she talked she was weaving her hands together, and her hair mirrored these actions until it hung in a long, heavy braid down her back. If she were standing it would have reached her knees. Her clothes were changing as well, till she was wearing black trousers and a black long sleeved blouse with flared sleeves and a white collar. A white flower bloomed on this, and seemed to move with an invisible and unfelt wind. She passed her hands over her bright green eyes and when her hands left her face her eyes were a bluish purple colour. Something in Trowa's mind clicked and he started.
"You look like Duo!" he said rather stupidly.
"Give him a hand folks, we have a genius in our midst!" she replied sarcastically.
"But how?" Heero was more interested in this girl than he looked.
"The taycer have some truly brilliant people, true genius's." she cast a nasty sidelong look at Trowa. " As a child I was the first to undergo a new operation to look like my lord. As I have supernatural blood in my veins, the surgery didn't work, but it did allow me to change my shape and appearance at will." To demonstrate she changed into Duo, Quatre, Trowa, Heero, Wufei, an OZ soldier, Sally Po, and Milliardo Peacecraft before she returned to her original form. The boys looked at each other, stunned.
"So, any more questions, or can I go?" she seemed to be eager to leave all of a sudden.
"Um… I have a question." Trowa said tentatively. He had escaped injury so far, but he wasn't sure how powerful this girl was. "Firstly, what do you mean magical blood in you veins?"
"Oh, my mother was a taycer priestess, and my father was an Emiaal, a kind of cross between a warlock and an elf. You see, the taycer are all women, so most of those born into the taycer have Emiaal fathers. Anything else?"
"Uh...Yeah. Why did you think we were keeping Duo prisoner?"
"Are you trying to tell me that lord shinigami was not kept under armed guard here?" she looked a little angry, but more confused.
"No, he was free to come and go as he pleased. He's our friend. We wouldn't do anything to harm him."
"But then why? Oh enorim shinigami! Sen gold dee enorimi!"
"Nanestnanglay, lily, whatever, where is duo?"
"He is at the palace. I see it now. I remember!"
"What?" both boys said at once.
"Lady Une. She is using Duo chan as bait."
"Duo chan?" Trowa muttered at Heero. Heero just shrugged his shoulders.
"It's the non-human she was really after." She continued, but seemed to be talking to herself. " She knew he would come after lord shinigami.
Both boys did a double take.
"LADY UNE!"
"She told my people that lord shinigami was being held captive. She made me stun him, then transport him through my powers to her palace. She said that she'd taken the other one and that I should replace him until 3 days after duo chans retrieval. Then I should go. I cant believe that it was all a trick!" by now she was sobbing heavily, and at this she sank down from the air onto her knees and put her head in her hands. As she sat there, with sobs wracking her whole body, the two pilots tried as best they could to comfort her.
Ok, that's all for chapter 5. The new chapter will be up as quick as you can recite the lyrics to crawling. * Looks at self weirdly * yes, sometimes I scare even me.
***** URGENT *****
I realise that sometimes in the story, Lily will start speaking DiShin. That is because it is her native language and she will revert to it if she is upset or talking to herself or stuff like that. But, as the language itself only contains about 50 words so far, I can't have her talk it too often. This is why she rarely speaks it. Also, ANY communication from the taycer (the duo-loving cult, taycer means fangirl/guy in DiShin) will be in DiShin. If you remember the amulet in chapter 3, you will remember that the inscription on the back was in DiShin. I'll give you a rough guide to the language as I use it in the next post I post.
DiShin words used in this chapter:
Enorim/i: eternal, eternally, eternity
Sen: all
Gold: hail
Dee: you
Note: nanestnanglay literally means L -I -L -Y. I know it spells the name, but it also means ever change ever deceive. Geddit? She's a shape shifter?
