Grant Me One Death Wish.
"HEERO!!!"
Duo screamed as he held Heero up as they were in the shadow of the church. Heero was stabbed through his heart as he was bleeding and his face was wrinkled and chipped away from the purifing sun. "Go, become.. Pure again..." Heero choked out as Duo's brighter then ever, violet eyes drew forth silver salty tears.
"H-heero..." Duo held Heero in a hug as Heero coughed, "Duo.. All humans who become like me are reborn Shinigami's.. And are more powerful then any pure Vampire... That's when jealousy broke out.. Humans are in most Vampires hatred bitter jealous desires.. I.. Did not play in that roll, and look what it cost me.."
"Please don't talk, the priest will give us a room, you'll be safe, all right?"
"No, Duo.. I won't.. Remember the promise you made to me?"
Duo's brow nearly met in the middle of his ghost white forehead as his mind brought back those fateful regretful words, "Duo, if I were dying I would not want it to be by my enemies but.. Could you, my love?"
"W-well... Sure, I promise my dear."
Duo hated himself for promising that. A he looked away from Heero and began to cry. "Duo, thank you for giving an old Vampire like me a life in which I believe mortal's feel.. You gave me.. love..." Heero smiled as Duo removed the knife and sat Heero up in place. Duo held the point of the blade up to Heero's throat as Duo and Heero brushed their cold lips together then into a everlasting loving kiss. Then Duo thrust the knife through Heero as Heero gasped but Duo gently laid him down as Heero smiled faintly before death had consumed him.
Duo mourned as the priest looked out their windows. In his moments of grieving Duo forgot the sun until he felt the intense burning pain across his back. He screamed and kneeled as he watched Heero's body start to burn up and turn to ash. The priests rushed out there and grabbed Duo and brought him inside. Duo struggled but gave up as they laid him before the altar and began their prayers.
Duo felt the sting of Holy Water droplets on his brow and exposed chest. Somewhere between the pain and the mutterings of prayers Duo had a black out. It was noon and Duo woke up hearing birds sing as he was in a bedroom as the sunlight came through the windows as a soft glow. Duo realized that he was human again, and quickly rushed outside to where Heero was.
Nothing was left but the knife and some clothing. And Duo sank to one knee as his fingers brushed the blades of grass.
"My eyes filled with tears as I gently traced my fingertip around his wedding ring. Our wedding. I wept as I held it against my chest. I placed it on my ring finger next to mine as the priests came out. I demanded that I wanted to be left alone and I walked back home or whatever was left of it."
He wrote and on that copper wrinkled page, the ink was a bit blurry as if tears had fallen on it. "When I returned home the windows were smashed, the door torn off its hinges. But still I walked inside not carring, stepping on the broken glass and went into my bedroom where I laid not carring if I was ever to awaken."
The next day Duo packed whatever he could and left the town and went back to Richmond. He had planned on going back home to South Carolina but he still wasn't sure of how his family would react if he were to return. He pondered on the idea of going back to being a priest, but he got a job of Horse Tending. And then soon landed him a good paying job of being overseer of the slaves on a large plantation. He didn't talk much to anyone anymore, he only made sure that the slaves did their job and he did his.
Duo did his job as he walked up the stairs to the large home, he saw an old 'friend'. "Noin..." He said softly as they both stopped in their tracks and eyed eachother for a moment. "Duo... Heh, Duo Yuy?" Noin asked with a smile as Duo ftown slightly his gaze lowered, "Duo widower Yuy." Noin frownd as she walked closer to him, "I'm sorry.. How did it happen?"
"I rather not say..."
"Aunt Noin, i'm ready."
Duo looked up and saw a girl, younger then him maybe a year or two. But her raven hair was kept back her white bonnet covering her head. Her dress was long it was white with soft blue, they stared as she blushed slightly. This girl was Hilde the daughter of the plantation owner. Duo bowed slightly and smiled, "Miss, I didn't know you were related." Noin smiled, "I didn't know you worked here."
Duo heard a horse neigh as he turned and saw Zechs sitting on a black steed and a carriage next to him. "We best be on our way, good day Duo." Hilde said in her cheerful voice as her and Noin left. Duo waved as Zechs waved back, Duo knew his secret would be safe with those two.
Duo's great granddaughter, closed the journal as she got up and left her room carring her book. She slipped into place in her mother's car as they drove to a house out in the country side. "Grandma, Hilde." The very old woman turned and smiled, "Catherine, hello.." Her great granddaughter, Catherine sat on the grass next to the aging woman, "What is that you got there?" Catherine handed her the journal as Hilde placed her glasses on and read the familiar cursive writing.
"I found it and I read it.. Was it all true?"
Hilde smiled as she opened it with her shakey hands and looked at the words. "Of course. Didn't you finish reading it?"
"No.."
"After he was purified, the marks he got from the sun remained."
Hilde went to the back of the book as she opened a hidden poutch and removed some more photos. Hilde handed one to Catherine as it was Duo shirtless his back towards the camera his braid slung over one shoulder as his back had welts and bumps looking very much like a burn.
"Was he happy after Heero?"
Catherine asked as Hilde smiled trying to collect old memories. "He believed that he would see Heero after he died. He hoped God would forgive him for taking a life. But he was happy cause he knew Heero was and would want him to be. He lived happily and died in peace."
Catherine smiled as they looked at photos of Duo and Hilde's wedding and their children. "You keep the journal, honey, i'm sure he would want you to keep it."
"Thank you grandma."
Six men led the coffin out from the house and into the cemetery. They placed Duo's coffin in the ground as Hilde was an middle aged woman and her five children stood around her. Inside the coffin, Duo laid, he was to be considered old at that time, he was only fourty years old. His braid remained as his left hand held three wedding rings. His, Heero's and the one from Hilde's wedding. His suit was a dark blue
~+-=-End.-=-+~
Spazmastic: I intended Heero to die, yes, -.-; But I hope you enjoyed it.. And now i'm debating if I should make a sequel? O.o? Duo with Trowa and Quatre and probably Catherine the knife chick, o_o You guys tell me your opinion!
