Chapter 5 Back at the party
Quatre walked out of his office. He had to go and find Rashid so that nothing would happen to Heero or any of the Maguancs. Quatre found Rashid standing along one wall of the ball room watching the dancers.
"Rashid." called Quatre when he was a few feet away.
"Yes, Master Quatre?" Rashid asked turning towards him.
"Would you tell the rest of the Maguancs that I'm expecting Heero Yuy tonight and to show him to a guest room, then notify me of his arrival?" Quatre asked him.
"Of course, Master Quatre. " Rashid said.
"Thank you." Quatre said and then walked away toward the tarace and the gardens.
Quatre was half way to the doors when he felt a hand tap him on the shoulder. He turned and groaned under his breath. In front of him was Relena Peacecraft.
"Hello Quatre. How are you?" Relena inquired.
"Fine, thank you, Miss Relena." Quatre responded politely with a small smile.
"Have you heard anything about Heero recently?" Relena wondered.
"Y...er...no I haven't. Sorry Miss Relena." Quatre said.
"Oh. Well if you hear anything from him, you will tell me wont you?" Relena asked.
"Yes of course." Quatre said while discretely crossing his fingers behind his back.
"Thank you, Quatre." Relena said.
"Your welcome, Miss Relena. But now I really must be going, so if you'll excuse me?" Quatre said.
"Of course, Quatre. See you later." Relena told him, then turned and walked away.
Quatre sighed. He had almost told Relena that he had heard from Heero. And if he had two things would have happened. One: Relena would have pestered him so much that he would have told her that Heero was going to stay with him for a while. Second: As soon as Heero found out, Quatre would be dead.
Quatre sighed again and continued on his way to find Duo. Quatre reached the tarace and looked around. Duo wasn't there. Quatre shrugged and went looking for him on the lit paths of the garden.
It was only a matter of minutes before he found the spot where he and Duo had been talking before Rashid had interrupted them. Duo was no where to be seen.
Quatre looked down at the ground and saw where someone had walked on the grass. Most people would not have seen the difference, but he was a gundam pilot and had developed the skill to detect slight variations in things. Whoever made the tracks had been light on their feet.
A smile came to Quatre's face as he started to follow the slight trail, knowing that it had been made by Duo. If it were anyone else but Duo or one of my other friends-if they were here-I would be mad that they had wondered into my gardens. Quatre thought as he walked.
Quatre walked for about five minutes before he came to a kind of clearing. It was an open space with a fountain in the middle surrounded by some trees. Quatre hid in the shadow of one of them trying to see where Duo was.
When Quatre did see Duo, he could do nothing but gasp.
