"So…Duo Maxwell has been here?"
"Yes, and he has taken our precious clover."
"Clover?"
"Hn, that disobedient apprentice, Wufei, released him from the cage."
"What does that have to do with me? I only want to kill Maxwell…"
"Then I'll give you the location of him and even a supply of
bullets…but on one condition…"
"What is it?"
"Kill the clover one too."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"The five scientists, who caged me, looked nationwide for children
with magical powers. These sorcerer children were called "Clovers."
Heero explains to Duo.
"The most powerful ones they named Three-leaf Clovers and Four-leaf
Clovers. They're so powerful that the scientists don't have what it
takes to defeat them."
"You're a Four-leaf Clover, aren't you?" Duo whispers.
Heero nods, "That's why I'm always alone."
"But can't you escape? You don't deserve a life like that, Heero!"
Duo speaks harshly.
Heero shakes his head sadly, "You don't understand. The scientists
have the right to cage me. I'm nothing but danger to everyone…
especially those closest to me."
"What do you mean?" Duo questions.
Heero takes a deep breath, "Years ago, I met a girl here, at
Fairy Park. She was kind to me, even knowing my powers.
She was special since I had no family or other friends to care about."
Heero starts to tremble, "One night…She wanted to fly in the sky
and of course, I helped her with her wish. But I…because
I lost concentration…She fell and died…because of me…"
Heero trembles violently, choking back a sob.
'Heero…why won't you cry?' Duo embraces Heero tightly.
"I have to be alone," Heero continues. "I have to…"
"But…" Duo strains, "Aren't there other Clovers like you?"
Again, Heero shakes his head, " The lesser Clovers were released.
There was one Three-leaf Clover who was contained as me, but he was
later released too because he held no threat.
I still must be caged though…because I prove not my innocence."
Heero glances at the mound in indication.
Duo was furious, "Just because it was an accident! Argh!
I just want to punch that Three-leaf guy and put him back in his
cage so he can-"
"You can't." Heero interrupts.
"Eh? And why not?" Anger still evident in Duo's eyes.
"Because Quatre's your best friend." Heero says defensively.
"WHAT?! Quatre's the Three-leaf Clover?!" Surprise overtakes
Duo's anger, "Great! Anybody else I know?" Duo jests.
"The Two-leaf Clover is-" Heero's eyes went wide. "He's here!"
Before Duo can react, bullets rain over them with a thunderous sound.
He brings Heero down with him until the bullets ceases.
Duo grunts as he pulls Heero closer to him.
They're so vulnerable because of the open area.
With that afterthought, Duo quickly hauls Heero to his feet
and both runs into the depths of Fairy Park.
The night grows even darker as the pair runs on. Duo curses under
his breath as the bullets target them again. He leads Heero around
a sharp corner, but they meet with a dead end.
Duo frantically searches for an escape route, but stops at the sound
of footsteps slowly coming towards them.
When Duo turns around to face their assailant, he can't believe
the face he's staring at right now.
"Trowa? You're the Two-leaf Clover?"
Trowa stiffens at the statement, but raises his gun in dead calmness.
"Since you know what I am, there's no reason to let you live now."
He averts his gaze on Heero, "But first I must eliminate the clover."
The sound of a dismissed bullet shatters the silence.
"Heero!" Duo shoves him out of the bullet's path. Heero feels the
bullet passing by and into Duo's heart in a sickening sound.
Heero gives out a soundless cry as he bends down and picks up
Duo's fallen body. Duo forcefully flutters his eyes open, "Heero…"
His hand shakily brings Heero's face closer to him.
"I hope…you will find happiness…" He gives a bloody kiss on Heero's
forehead before slumping into a forever rest.
"Duo…" Heero weeps. His tears mesh with Duo's blood as he cradles
the lifeless body. Heero's eyes graze towards Trowa, "You…"
Heero whispers. "YOU…!" Heero screeches as he feels energy rising up in him.
Trowa crumbles and grasps his chest in desperation.
Pain! So much of Heero's pain and sorrow fill Trowa's entire body.
He can feel his blood boiling and his breath shortening at Heero's
force of emotion pulling him apart.
Trowa smiles grimly at his state.
'My only regret…is not telling my love how I feel.'
His heart finally stops its beat.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Quatre sleeps soundly with only his heartbeat filling the silence.
It's only a minute as his heart stops in response of another's heart
dead. He snaps his eyes open in recognition, "TROWA!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Heero leaves Trowa. He carries Duo's body with him as he flies away.
He flies far away from the cities, countries…and even himself.
Heero finally comes to a rest in a cavern nestled near the vast ocean.
He's mesmerized by the huge rolling waves as each move in harmony.
He watches the sunrise effecting its colours onto the surface of the water.
If only Duo would still be there with him, so he can share all his experiences.
'I hope…you will find happiness…' Duo's words echo in his mind.
Heero gently places Duo on the cool cavern's surface and lies down
beside him. He grasps Duo's hand as if hoping to find strength from it.
The event brings the most saddening experience in his whole life,
but even then…
'I did find happiness Duo…it was with you.' Heero closes his eyes.
'Even though it didn't last long…Even if it was only brief…At least
I got the chance to feel it before I die.'
Heero smiles the last time before he plunges into a deep sleep.
A sleep he will never awake because Duo is waiting for Heero on
the other side. That's where Heero intends to be…in Duo's arms forever.
