Episode 2: Painful Past
"What happened?" Heero asked while running down the hall.
"We don't know exactly, but the door had been blown away. You mustn't worry though, we think that Deathschyth itself has not been damaged." The soldier replied.
They ran as quickly as they can towards Deathschythe.
"Duo said he was going to checkout his gundam right? But he's not here," When they reached Duo's gundam, Karen notice that that Duo himself wasn't there.
"Lets search through this mess first. He may be trapped under some of these rocks." Quatre said and everyone started searching.
"Come here guys," Karen looked up as she said this.
"I bet that's Duo's blood," Heero said calmly.
They all ran to where Karen was and poked beneath a huge rock and saw a tiny puddle of blood, but there was no trace of Duo.
"Let's check up in his room, he might've gone back up to clean the blood away," Kiki suggested.
"Okay, but we better find him fast, we're suppose to leave to Colony 99921X in half an hour," Quatre looked at his watch.

Suzaru winced.
"Maybe you should stop on behalf of your life, Suzaru!" Hikiru sounded like she was Suzaru's mother.
"No, it's almost done," Suzaru said weakly and then instantly lifted her hand off. "See, it's patched already."
"That was very fast-" Hikiru stopped as Suzaru fainted and collapsed. Before Hikiru could catch hold of her, Duo had her already cradled in his arms.
"It must be hard for her to do anything with her energies huh?"
"Yeah, not exactly, I mean it is but it wasn't always like this…" Hikiru's voiced trailed off.

Suzaru only acts as if she's having fun when she's with only Duo or alone with me. She'd always pretend as if she doesn't even know Duo when the others were around, Hikiru thought after the flashback and smiled.
"What? Tell me, besides, I won't tell anyone," Duo looked at Hikiru with eager eyes.
"Well… Dammit, I've gone too soft on you already! And I don't know why I'm trusting you, but…" Hikiru hesitated then shrugged. "Okay, before, when we were small, we had powers that even we couldn't imagine now. But that's not important at all, the main thing started when I was 13 and Suzaru was 12, almost 13. There was this guy with powers much stronger than ours named Korin Kesamo, he was 15 then, he really loved Suzaru, and vowed everlasting love for her until she died. When she said that she didn't love him back, he was crushed. He started following Suzaru everywhere, that wasn't hard since he got to see her half the day during Zem Mage lessons. One day, Suzaru made it quite clear that she didn't want anything to do with him and humiliated him in front of his so called "friends", he became even more angry, he claimed that Suzaru will be his someday, whether she's by him or not, he will have control over her forever."
Suzaru moved a little in Duo's arms. "Go on."
"For a little over 1 month everything was normal, Korin was no where to be seen or heard. Until the day of her 13th birthday, he came back and merely killed everyone that Suzaru once loved and most of her friends. On that day my present to her was a gundam, she especially named it Shadow IV after Zukia's gundam Shadow III. Oh, and Zukia is Suzaru's brother. Anyways, When Korin attacked, Suzaru and I were told to run to our gundams and leave this place. Before we could get to our gundams Korin had grabbed Suzaru and teleported her back to his domain, he told me before he left, that if I ever wanted to see her again, I would have to go to her. I knew that somehow he was going to do something to me as well but I went anyways. So I teleported to his domain with our gundams. There-" Duo cut her off.
"How could you have brought your gundam with you? Even more both of your gundams."
