Duo "Deathscythe" Maxwell
Noin and Zechs rode their horses to the well hidden path towards Heero's castle. As Duo peered out filling his lungs with the fresh crisp air of the South. The mist was broken by the beautiful golden rays of the heavenly sun. Duo dressed himself as he wore a thick gold band around his left ring finger. He smiled at it as he moved it gently as the sunlight was caught creating a gold sparkle.
Duo grabbed his whicker basket that was bound to his back. He marched outside as he smiled until he was twenty yards away when he heard a horse neighing as he looked up and saw two people on horses behind some tall bushes. "W-what do you want?" Duo asked as he stepped back as Noin ducked her head and moved her horse foward calmly. "We like to have a moment with you." Zechs made his horse move foward as he was very serious. "Huh, he hasn't changed." He said with a smirk as Noin smiled.
"So it seems."
"What do you want!?" Duo was growing impateint and angry with these two and their babble.
"Heero. Tell us about him." Noin said as Duo took another step back. "He- heero? What do you want with him!?" Duo began to shout as he feared that these two were going to kill him and Heero. "We have questions to ask if you please." Zechs said raising his hand hopeing it would calm the young man before them. "Are you the one they call, the Maxwell Demon?" Noin asked as Duo's eyebrows met in the middle as he frowned, "Yes, but its a lie! I am not any demon!"
"Why do you stay with Heero?"
"Cause.... Well... He's..."
"He's your spouse?" Zechs asked as Duo was shocked, "How..?" Zechs smiled as that idea of men marring other men sunk into his mind. "We know, but we're not here to hurt anyone until we have full proof if Heero commited any crimes against humans." Duo now realized that they were Vampire Hunters as Duo threw his whicker basket at them and quickly spun around and ran back to the castle.
"Get him!" Zechs shouted as Noin's horse was startled but soon Noin jumped off her horse and held a small staff in her hand. One quick flick of her left wrist as it shot out a whip as it wrapped itself around a tree branch. Noin was fast as she swung herself over Duo's head and land in front of him. Duo gasped as he turned around and found Zechs on his horse as his cool iron sword pointed itself at Duo. Duo froze in an instant as Noin pulled out a silver small Crucifix and placed it on Duo's arm.
Duo looked as nothing happened and Zechs placed his sword away as he too got off from his horse. "Tell me what are you suspecting Heero of?" Duo asked camly as he was still in the middle of these two. The love he held for Heero grew Duo to be a defensive over protective being against these two who dare speak wrongly of his love.
"There was a town not to far from here that was attacked and all its residents were turned into Zombies. We know Heero has been here shortly after that incident and we want to see if it was him. " Zechs said as Duo was angry but remained calm. His eyes flashed open as he stared at Zechs,
"What about Trieze and Wufei? They are Vampires too in search to kill Heero for respecting humans. Heero as told me the truth and I believe him. If you don't then i'll have to kill you both myself if you dare harm him while i'm away. He took me because he loved me far better and greater than anyone ever could. I choose to stay with him after I realized too my affections for him and everyone thinks i'm a demon. Well I am not! I am Duo Maxwell Yuy! And he will not change me!"
Noin and Zechs were'nt expecting this hostile behavior from Duo as they imagined that he was changed or forced to marry and wanted to be free. But they nodded and left as they walked off back to Noin's horse as Duo watched them till they were out of his angered violet gaze.
"That was not to be expected, Noin."
"No, it was not. Suppose he is telling the truth and there are two more Vampires around what do we do then?"
Zechs smiled, "What we've always done."
Duo picked up the remains of his basket as he felt a chill run down his spine as he turned back towards the castle as in the darkness of the front doors Heero stood. Duo blinked as he slowly walked back to Heero, "Oh hey! They were some friends of mine, yea." Heero was dead silent and serious. "They are hunters after me. I can hear far greater than you can, my lying love." Duo stood surprised as a sweat mark ran down his temple down his right cheek.
"Get your food. We leave tonight."
"What? To where?"
"Virgina."
"Oh wow really!? I was told that I was born there!"
Heero smirked hearing the slight accent rise in Duo's excited voice. "I have plans for you. Now do your shopping." Heero lifted his right hand as the doors closed in front of Duo who stood puzzled. "What plans!?" Duo shouted as what felt like a gust of wind blew him off the large porch and down to the ground. "....HEERO, THAT'S NOT FUNNY!!!!!" Duo heard laughter fill the castle as he stormed away towards town.
Duo hid his lovely face as he bought large amounts of food for him and the horses that he tend to. When he came back he saw the front doors open as Heero stood in the dark with a smirk as Duo removed his hood. "Love." He simply said as he heard the heavy pounding of hoofs near. Duo gasped as he turned and saw Noin and Zechs with shoulder protectors with large gold Crucfixes as their swords were drawn.
Duo ran inside as Heero moved his right hand as a large decaying tree fell across the large steps before the doors closed.
"HEERO?! What do we do now?!"
"I can only do so much, my Duo. I will need you to drive us away for I cannot be in the sun." Duo nodded as he helped Heero load the coffin into the large wagon. Noin and Zechs had made their way through and split up to find them quicker. Noin rushed down a spiral staircase as she came upon the stable room where she saw Duo quickly get to his place on the large wagon. Duo grabbed the reigns as he used them to whip the horses and they burst through the doors.
Four horses ran down the forest path as Zechs and Noin sighed in fustration. Duo panted as he was now heading north and to wherever Heero desired. They stopped over a Inn as they were now near Virgina's boarderline. Duo paid the inn keeper as he and Heero walked to their up stairs room.
"Love, what was it that you worry over?" Duo asked as he brushed his left hand gently down Heero's arm. "I must train you to kill a Vampire. I know that they will come looking for me."
Duo was surprised by this but Heero ordered that he rest while Heero went out. Duo threw his back against the couch as he moved away his long strains of untied bangs.
When Heero had returned he sensed something wasn't right.
"Ahhh, our long lost brethen."
Heero slowly turned as his face held its usual apperance as he looked back at the smirking Trieze. Meanwhile back at the inn as people laid dead with cold blood surrounding their lifeless shells, Wufei was in persuit of Duo. Duo was thrown hard against the wall as Wufei grinned.
"My weak mortal, how I longed to taste your sweet blood again.. Tell me.. Is that why Heero has choosen you?"
"Uhh!!!" Duo struggled as he spit into Wufei's face. Wufei grew angry as he slammed Duo into the wall once more. "BLEED FOR ME!" He shouted as he continued shoving Duo into the wall.
Heero and Trieze blurred past each other over rooftops and dirt roads but then a ripping sound followed by a yelp. Trieze fell to the ground as a dagger was sent into his heart. Heero's pointed ears twitched as he heard Duo scream.
"Pain which knocked me out cold." Duo wrote, "I was in the hands of a loveless killer lusting over my blood. He embraced my body into his arms as his fangs embraced my flesh. I remembered coughing and choking on my blood but then I was dropped down on to the cold hard wooden floor, it was cold just like his touch. And as for my breathing was fast and my heart racing this is why Vampires scared or seduced their prey, to make the blood rush faster."
"Heero?!" Wufei said as Heero threw a small knife which Wufei quickly dodged and faded away. Heero rushed to Duo's side as he placed Duo on the bed and bandaged his wound and licked the blood remains. "H-hee... Heero.." Duo gasped out as he started to become more alert, "Shh, do not speak, we shall leave now." The breeze blew the curtains gently over Heero and in a breeze moment they were gone.
The wagon rushed down the unpaved roads as Wufei found Trieze laying on the ground. Wufei removed the dagger and carried the large Vampire away. Duo panted as he was glad that the large straw hat kept his face cool but last night's encounter had made him sick and weak feeling and the heat of the South was no help.
Duo pulled the horses to a pond for them to drink as he wanted too as well. Duo took a few sips then blackness overcame him as he fell face first into the pond. Bubbles of precious air were unwillingly set free from Duo's nose and mouth. Then Duo who would slowly drown was pulled out from the water as a shook brought him back to his senses.
"What I saw was horrifing." Duo's cursive words said, "My lover in the sunlight. His eyes red his face paler as it started to fall away as if dust. What fell away turned into black holes as I felt an intense heat."
"Heero?!"
"He looked at me with his eyes as they turned blue and were sad and weak. I quickly carried my love back into the wagon as the heat made me feel hot but did not burn me as I knew it was from him. I helped him back into his coffin for what I thought was the last time."
Duo held his head up as he began to cry but Heero slowly blinked. "Duo, I will live." Duo noticed how Heero's once white skin was now a gray or has gray spots on it like dust. "It's my f-fault." Duo sobbed as his head went limp but Heero brushed away the long brown strans. "It's all right, come and rest with me." Duo placed the horses back before he crawled into the coffin with his spouse.
"It was three days later as we finally came upon a well hidden mansion."
"Your training will begin here." Heero said as Duo felt much better after Heero forced him to eat red meat to make up for the blood loss and Heero's wounds from the sun had vanished. The next morning in the main entrance room Heero taught Duo how to sense a Vampire when one would blur. Duo was armed with a sword as he closed his eyes and as Heero blurred three times Duo was close but was missing by too much.
"I can't handle this sword swingin'!" Duo shouted as Heero pondered.
"What kind of weapon can you swing?"
Heero asked with his left hand over his chin and bottom lip as Duo's eyes lit up as he smirked.
"AH! YEEE HA!" Duo swung his arms behind him as he opened his eyes and saw what he had accomplish. "HEERO!" Heero's side was wounded by the scythe as he moved to the side and smiled as his wound healed. "So my farm boy can handle a scythe better than a sword. How amusing."
"I could've killed you!!"
"They will call you, Duo 'Deathscythe' Maxwell." Heero smirked ignoring Duo's anxieties about nearly killing his beloved. "You have done well. Do not worry over me."
"They got away before questioning, sir." Noin said as Trieze sat in a darken room in his chair as he held a poutful look. "Then find them and your search will be well rewarded." Noin and Zechs left the room as they did not know that their boss was a Vampire that they've been looking for all along.
"With this scythe i'll kill any of those bastards."
"Duo, if I were dying I would not want it to be by my enemies but.. Could you, my love?"
Heero's eyes were holding pitty and concern as Duo was taken back by this request. "W-well... Sure, I promise my dear." Duo hugged his loving Vampire as Duo thought that he would never have to fullfill this task as he smiled against Heero's chest feeling fingers ravage his hair. Heero kissed his mortal beloved as the moon gazed her light upon the two figures.
