Chapter 1: Pushed to the Limit!
Usually Wufei had no problem suppressing his feelings, but this pushed him to
the limit, man handling Usagi and taking his son. Shaking with anger, he
slammed his fist into the wall, trying to release the tension in his body
before calling an ambulance.
"Moshi Moshi." Duo said as
he answered the phone. There was a slight pause; all that could be heard were
unsteady breaths, "Hello?"
"Maxwell get over here! Now!"
"Wufei?" Duo arched an eyebrow, surprised with his partner's
demanding tone, "What happened? Where are you?"
"At the Hospital. I can't talk now. I'll explain everything once you get
here."
"Hai. I'm going now." with
that said, Duo hung up, pausing for a second. He had never heard Wufei use that
kind of tone. Usually it was sarcastic or mean, but this time he sounded
plainly frantic. Something must have happened involving Usagi or Wang Li.
"Hm." he murmured as he pulled on his coat, and zipped it up, "Tonight
he was supposed to ask Usagi to marry him."
Why were Hospital's so cold? Especially when it was summer, over a hundred
degree's outside. The chilling felling that Wufei felt was irrelevant when it
came to the worry, for Usagi and Wang Li. Patience was usually one of his virtues,
but in this situation it wasn't. Who in his or her right mind would be foolish
enough to steal his son when almost everyone knew what he was capable of doing?
"Wang Li." Wufei whispered, pacing back and forth in the waiting
room, while the doctor tended to Usagi. The shock had worn off, but insanity
was within reach. His son meant so much to him, agony was crushing him.
"Wufei." he heard, not looking up, knowing who the voice belonged to,
"What's going on? What happened?"
Duo waited for his partner to answer but instead, Wufei looked at him with unshed
tears in his eyes. "Wufei?" he blinked, unsure of what to say. Tears
were something he had never seen from the Chinese martial artist. He considered
showing emotions as a weakness, now here he was, crying with panic.
Silence set in for a brief moment, until Wufei rubbed his eyes before the tears
could fall, a hard glint replacing the sadness. "My son is...missing."
he said slowly.
"Nani?" Duo exclaimed.
Wufei shut his eyes, his lips quivering with an unknown emotion, "Whoever
took Wang Li... used some kind of chemical on Usagi." he explained.
A frown graced the braided Preventer's features as he contemplated Wufei's
words, thinking. "And ideas?" he asked, referring to the kidnapper.
Wufei shook his head, "Iie."
he answered in an emotionless tone.
Duo sighed, his eyes downcast, "What now?"
"We find him!' Wufei stated in a semi loud voice, hiding his melancholy
behind a mask of calmness.
Duo opened his mouth to say something but another voice beat him to it.
"Wufei-san." Minako's voice echoed through the empty hallways as she
and Yaten made their ways to the two ex-pilots. "We came as soon as you
called. What's going on?"
"It's Wang Li." Duo answered for him, seeing that his Chinese friend
was a little to caught up in his thought, "Someone took him."
The couple gasped, their eyes flickering in disbelief.
"Who would do such a thing?" Minako looked away with a pained
expression, her hand slipping into Yaten's.
The sliver haired idol squeezed her hand, and then looked at Wufei, "And
Usagi?"
"The doctor is seeing her as we speak some sort of chemical was used on
her." Wufei answered tightly, trying to keep his voice steady, which was a
hard thing to do, considering how he felt. His son was missing, what do you
expect, especially since it had only been two weeks since Wang Li was born.
"This time... I'm pushed to my limit."
Duo stepped back; a little uncomfortable with how Wufei was acting. Yaten and
Minako winced at his words, not sure what to make of it. All three of them
could understand how he was feeling, but this was a little too melodramatic.
They had to try and keep Wufei calm, and it wasn't going to be easy. Duo knew
that for sure. Still, they were going to stick with him, no matter what.
"You can see her now." The doctor's voice informed them, "The
chlorine is still in her system, and it will take a few days to clear. Other
than that, she'll be fine Wufei-san"
"Arigato." Wufei thanked
him, nodding once.
Usagi looked so weak and tired, it didn't suit her. She was always so cheerful
and full of life. This couldn't be her. Those were the thoughts that came to
mind as Wufei stood by her bedside, staring down at her. Her color was pale,
and her usual red lips held no color. "Usagi-chan." he said softly,
taking her hand in his.
Her eyes opened halfway, and she smiled weakly at him, "Wu-chan."
"Hai."
"Is Wang Li alright?" she asked.
Wufei looked away, hiding his true expression, "He's fine." he lied,
not wanting to upset her in her condition.
"Good." she said, closing her eyes.
Wufei sighed, slowly turning to look at her, brushing a few strands of blond
hair from her face before he bent down and kissed her cheek. "Gomen ne Usagi." he whispered so that
she couldn't hear him or the despair in his voice.
Realizing she had fallen asleep, he stood up, watching her for a moment, and
then left the room quietly. "How am I supposed to tell her about Wang
Li?" he asked himself, slipping his hands into his pockets, leaning against
the wall.
"Wufei-san." he heard Minako's voice next to him, "I'll stay
with her. You and Duo get started on finding your son."
Sighing, Wufei faced her, a weary expression gracing his features, "Hai, demo
I don't want to leave her."
She placed a comforting hand on his shoulder, her blue eyes soft, "You'll
find Wang Li, one way or another."
In the almost empty parking lot, Wufei walked to his car accompanied by Duo and
Yaten. Yaten had promised to hire a professional detective, and Wufei took him
up on his offer. If anything, he wanted to be the one to find Wang Li, and make
whoever took him suffer, for Wang Li and Usagi.
Duo's voice seemed like a million miles away, always the motor mouth. In a
situation such as this one, he would also crack a joke, trying to lighten the
mood. What could be said? It was his trademark, and it would always be. There
was no changing the former American Gundam Pilot. In a way, it relieved Wufei;
he wanted his braided friend to stay the same. It was he who needed the change,
thanks to Usagi and Wang Li he did change.
"Wufei...Are you listening to me?" Duo asked, glancing at him
expectantly.
Yaten snickered, "I guess he didn't."
Duo rolled his eyes, "So I've been talking to myself ne?"
"Looks like it."
"Would you two shut up? I'm trying to think." Wufei demanded, not
looking at them.
Duo and Yaten bit their lips, doing as they were told. Same old Wufei, all he
had to do was ask or rather command and they would obey. One word is all it
took.
"Usako!" A very lit Mamoru called out, trying to get some attention
from the apartment window, but all he received were yells to shut up and leave.
Wufei gritted his teeth, narrowing his eyes at the older man. What was he doing
at their apartment in the middle of the night, and drunk no less? Then it hit
him, he must have kidnapped Wang Li in order to try and get Usagi back. Without
thinking, he out of his car, ignoring Duo and Yaten's words to stay clam, and
headed towards the fool who may have stolen his son.
"Kisama!" he yelled,
punching an unsuspecting Mamoru in the jaw, making him fall onto his knees,
groaning. "What the hell are you doing here?" he questioned in an
outraged voice, grabbing Mamoru's collar, pulling him closer, getting into his
face, his expression laced with no mercy. Mamoru didn't answer; he only frowned
slightly, breathing deeply. "Kono
yaro! Where is my son?" Wufei glared at him, his grip tightening.
"How should I know?" Mamoru answered, confused.
Snarling, Wufei kneed him in the stomach, and punched him in the cheek,
satisfaction in his eyes as he watched Mamoru collapse onto his side, holding
his stomach, moaning in pain.
"Don't lie to me Mamoru, if you don't tell me where my son is, I'm really
going to make you suffer." Wufei threatened, clenching his fists, showing
he wasn't kidding, towering over the older man.
Mamoru stared up at him, even more lost, "What's your problem Wufei? I
only wanted to talk to Usako."
"You are my problem!" Wufei snapped, "You must really think I'm
stupid. Where is my son!'
"I don't know." Mamoru coughed, wiping his mouth where a little blood
stained the side of his chin from a cut lip, "I don't even know what's
going on. What makes you think I took your son?"
The sanity seemed to wear thin in Wufei's eyes as his breathing increased,
about to advance onto the older man when two pairs of hands grabbed his arms,
holding him back.
"Wufei that is enough!" Duo said in an almost scolding tone, pulling
him back.
"Hai, it's clear that he has
nothing to do with what happened with Wang Li." Yaten added, straining to
hold him back.
Wufei said nothing for a moment, continuing to glare at Usagi's ex-boyfriend
before wrestling his arms free. "Get out of my sight Mamoru." he
commanded, turning his back on him, folding his arms.
Mamoru took the hint, and got up, walking away without a word.
Duo and Yaten watched him leave, and then followed Wufei into the apartment
building, relieved that they had stopped him from going to far.
A figure stood in the shadows, amused with what just happened. "This is
very fun, watching you suffer Wufei." The person spoke, chuckling.
