Haunted
Part 7
~!~!~!~!~
About twenty minutes later, the Gundam pilots found themselves gathered around the dinning room table. The seating was pretty obvious, Quatre and Trowa, Heero and Duo, and Wufei somewhere in the middle. The chandelier, lighting the room was above them. The table had been cleaned before the food was deposited. Tea and water were the beverages, and breadsticks were the appetizer. Then followed by spaghetti and chicken.
It was like eating at Quatre's...but not.
Duo looked down at his plate.
"Sugoi! You really out did yourself this time Heero!"
"Better than granola bars." Wufei said.
"Yes," Quatre took a bite of his food, "It's delicious!"
"Where did you get the food?" Trowa asked cutting his chicken.
"In the kitchen." Heero replied. He had to admitt. The food was good.
"So it was just...there?"
"Pretty much."
"Trowa and I will take care of the dishes when you all are finished." Quatre took a sip of his tea.
"So, did you REALLY see anything creepy, Wufei, or did you just want attention?"
"I swear Maxwell. There were two guys in the room."
"Two guys?"
"Yes!"
"Well...what were they doing?"
"Um..."
"Were they just...standing there?"
"NO!"
"Then what?"
"Uh..."
Heero snorted, "Well, he DID get a nosebleed."
"Hee-chan! Are you implying that they were..."
"If it gives Wufei a nosebleed, then yes." Heero turned to Wufei, "Were they?"
Wufei flushed and nodded.
"How come we didn't see them?"
"They just disappeared."
"How can two guys makin' out, just diappear?!" Duo asked nearly spiting out his food.
"I don't know! They just DID."
"That's not possible."
"Exactly! I was in there just a second ago and there are only two ways out of the room. The door and the window." Duo said in agreement with Heero.
"I was infront of the door the whole time remember? So they couldn't have gotten out there. The window was locked when I was unpacking. So I don't know HOW they got out! And I want to change my room!"
"Did they say anything to you?" Trowa asked.
"Yes. They told me that this was their room."
Heero quirked an eyebrow.
"They did!" Wufei folded his arms.
"Whatever!" Duo resumed eating.
"What did they look like?" Quatre questioned, wufei looked up at the chandelier. It started to shake! Then stopped, it must have been his imagination.
"Like...like...I don't know! Like Heero and Duo! There was one with long hair and dark hair." Wufei looked at the door to the kitchen now. It started to open...Wufei's eyes bugged out. How come he seemed to be the only one noticing these things? Maybe he was just paranoid.
Duo and Heero looked at each other, "Wait a minute, it couldn't have been us. Hee-chan and I were downstairs the whole time."
"He has a point." Trowa said.
"I didn't say that it was them." Wufei snapped. His chair was suddenly pulled backwards then thrust back into the table knocking the breath out of the Chinese pilot, "Gah!"
"Problem Wufei?" Trowa asked.
"...No." Wufei panted. Whatever! There was a VERY big problem! Wufei calmed his nerves. There was nothing going on. Wufei was just imagining them. Wasn't he?
"Okay, so we got Heero and me look alikes here that escaped a room-" Duo cut himself off.
"What is it?"
"Wait a sec...wasn't this house used during the war?"
"Yes." Trowa eyed Wufei who was trying to pick up a piece of chicken but it kept sliding from his fork. He was actly very peculiar today...
Wufei glared at his food. Why the hell wouldn't it just GET ON THE DAMN FORK?! Every time he tried to stab the food, it simply slid away!
"Couldn't there be some type of secret passages?"
"That's possible."
Everyone was silent.
Secret passage...Duo would have to keep that in mind.
"So, Wufei saw two guys...anything else?"
Wufei's dish shook.
Spaghetti sauce for all!
Actually, just sauce all for Wufei's white pants...
"The snake in my bag."
"Oh yeah. I was unpacking Heero's stuff, and we found a nice little snake."
"A snake?"
"Yeah. Heero shot it in the head and we...left it there."
"You just left it there?" Quatre asked.
"Uh...what were we suppose to do with it?" Duo asked, "I'm a Gundam Pilot not a snake charmer!"
"...just a Heero charmer..." Wufei mumbled. He still couldn't get the chicken on his fork!
"Hey man, are you gonna eat that?" Duo pointed to the neglected chicken.
"I *WAS*..." Wufei replied trying once again to pick up the food. Duo fake coughed on it, "Hey!"
"How about now?"
Wufei glared, "No..."
"Okay!" Duo snatched Wufei's dinner. Wufei glared as Duo stuffed his face with chicken, "What were we talkin' about?"
"Do you know what type of snake it was?"
"No, just that it was a green snake."
"When I shot it, it didn't bleed." Heero added.
"Strange...I think we should have a look at it when we finish."
"Good idea."
Trowa sighed, he had heard something, but didn't know if he should say.
"Trowa heard something."
Trowa's eyes grew wide. 'Thanks alot Quatre.' he thought.
"Well tell us Tro."
Trowa sighed again.
"I heard something in our closet."
"In your closet?"
"Yes..." Trowa proceeded with his encounter as everyone carefully listened. Trowa was such a great story teller! Duo was on the edge of his seat just listening to him. Wufei as well, "'Come play...come play my game with me.' the girl said. She was giggling madly. Then the lights went on and the door opened."
"Did you see her?" Heero asked.
"No, just red eyes."
The lights went out.
"Wow...freaky." the lights came back on, "Chotto matte, 'Come play my game with me'?"
Trowa nodded.
The lights went out.
The boys stared at the light, "Well-"
The lights came on.
"Okay..."
The lights went out.
On.
Off.
On.
Off.
On.
Off.
"FINE! We get it! STOP!!!" Wufei outbursted.
On. Off. On.
"QUIT!"
The lights blinked on and off one last time and didn't stir again...at that time at least.
Duo was slightly annoyed. He remembered that he was going to say something, "Anyway! Someone said that to me when I walking up the stairs. Whispered actually."
"Nani?"
"Yeah. I stopped, but there was no one there. I know I heard something..."
"'Come play my game with me...'" Wufei repeated, "Yes, I heard it to before went into that room."
"Do you think..."
"I think someone, or some girl, is in this house with us."
A moment of silence passed.
"I just felt something breeze by my neck, that was it." Heero said.
"Nani?!" Duo shouted, "Something touching you besides me?! Aw, hell no! Okay, this is serious now."
"I just heard something repeat 'safe, safe, safe,' in my ear when Trowa was talking to me." Quatre added quickly, "The voice was young. It was female too. Even so...how come only one of us heard it each time?"
"I don't know, but I'm about ready to play her game if she messes with Hee-chan." Duo warned.
"Calm down, Maxwell, there's nothing you can do. We're stuck with two men and a little girl. I'm assuming they were here first. There's nothing we can do about them." Wufei pushed his plate aside, "Enough with this, what about the mission?"
"Yes. What about the mission?" Trowa asked looking at Heero who had somehow found a seat in Duo's lap.
"...The mission." Heero's eyes glared, "All I know is that Relena is linked to this house. When she was kidnapped four days ago, the Preventors traced her here. She was to sign a treaty with the colonies the day she was missing, and she wouldn't have run away. She seemed very pleased with the treaty..."
"And?" Duo nudged Heero to continue.
"And, it is believed that the reason for her abduction was because someone didn't want her to."
"So they just figured by kidnapping Relena they would stall for time...what cowards..." Wufei bowed his head, "How could someone stoop so low?"
"I know!" Duo exclaimed in a very matter-of-factly way, "If the guy didn't want peace, all he had to do is shoot the damn girl."
"Duo, then that would start another war!" Quatre cried.
"And I think that's exactly what the guy wants, if you ask me." Duo turned to Heero, "Does anyone know who did it?"
"No. All they know from evidence, was that it was one man."
"Well that's helpful. Ya know what I think."
"What?"
Something pinched Wufei.
"Ack!"
All attention was focused on Wufei.
"What???" the onyx eyes asked. The rest of the boys shrugged as Duo continued with his theory.
"That this can wait until morning. Obviously the guy wants something from Relena if he didn't kill her on the spot. What's one more night?"
"Maxwell, you are greedy."
"Why do you say that?"
"Because you know, as soon as you find Relena, she'll be hanging all over Heero. And there will be nothing you can do to stop her unless you blow your secret that you two have been hiding..." Wufei teased in truth.
"Shut up Wufei!"
"So it's true!"
Duo growled. Of course it was true, well so was Duo's reasons too, but he just didn't like Relena hanging around Heero.
"Don't worry, Duo." Heero said, "She can't do anything."
"I'm not worried about what she'll do to you. I'm worried about what you'll do to her." Heero knew EXACTLY what he meant.
Quatre looked at everyone's dishes. They were all cleaned including his. Heero was a VERY good cook. Great! Less for him to clean.
"I think this is enough talk for now. Arigato, Heero." Trowa began to pick up some of the heavier dishes and haul them to the kitchen for cleaning. Quatre followed.
"Yes, arigato." Quatre picked up the last of the dishes.
"Arigato, Yuy. Don't let Duo near the stove." Wufei pushed his chair in and went upstairs. He was going to switch rooms...not to mention pants. Luckily the other boys didn't see the red stain from spaghetti. Who would of thought that Wufei could be such a clutz!
Heero turned to Duo.
"Expecting a thank you?" Heero nodded. Duo chuckled.
"You didn't like my cooking?" Heero asked giving alittle pout.
"I like you better." Duo kissed Heero softly, "Arigato."
"You're welcome." Heero turned towards the staircase, "I'm going to our room if you need me..."
Duo grinned. He knew that it was an invitation...
"Gack! Ooo! Eee! Itaiiii!!!" Duo yelped in surprise, annoyance, and pain.
It happened so fast. He had just been flipped over and out of his chair crushing him from underneath. Who was strong enough to do that? Who would WANT to? Duo was so lovable! Only one person...
"Wufei..." Duo looked around for the Chinese pilot.
No one.
No one but Heero.
Heero looked at Duo doing his cute eyebrow trick. Duo looked ridiculous spawled under a chair with his limbs hanging out here and there.
"On second thought..." Heero said, "Take your time coming to the room." he turned back to the staircase.
Duo could NOT believe that Heero just said that to him. Shinigami growled.
"If you were trying to be amusing, it didn't work." Heero smirked to himself.
Duo was such a jokster at times.
"It's not like I did it on purpose!"
Heero shrugged, "Sure, whatever. Just don't fall on your face trying to get up the stairs or something."
Duo glared, "I'm tellin' ya, I didn't do it on purpose!"
Duo watched Heero retreat back up to their room. Boy was he gonna get it tonight...
Heero chuckled to himself. He could only think of one word for the braided wonder right now.
"Baka."
~!~!~!~!~
Quatre entered the kitchen and saw Trowa busy scrubbing the pots and pans. He walked over and joined him.
"Did you enjoy your dinner?" Trowa asked as Quatre deposited the dirty dishes.
"Yes, you?"
"I'm not picky. It was better than I had expected."
"Didn't think Heero could cook?" Quatre grabbed a towel dried the dishes that Trowa had already washed assuming it was clean.
"Not a clue."
"Same here." Quatre walked over to the pantry, "Oh, Heero forgot to close the door!"
"Funny, I don't think Heero would just leave things untidy..."
"I know...maybe Duo was with him." Quatre shut the pantry door.
"That must be it."
Quatre gasped and dropped the plate we was drying.
"Quatre?" Trowa turned concern filling his tone, "What's wrong?"
"I-I saw another rat!" he ran to Trowa, "I don't like rats!"
Quatre hugged Trowa as he dried his hands and held him back, "I'll clean up the mess, and you wash the dishes."
Quatre nodded.
As soon as he and Trowa finished putting the dishes away, Quatre turned off all of the lights downstairs and they left for their rooms.
The pantry door creaked softly as it was opened and a figure walked out...
~!~!~!~!~
TBC?
~!~!~!~!~
I know. Nothing happened in this chapter. I think this was just a review type thing...Gomen! But it got longer! Thank you Candy for reviewing and giving me the idea. I liked it very much! What did you think? By the way, how were you finals?
