Richmond High School 15: "Who are my enemies?"

Heero-- Locked up in Richard's room., September 23.

He gave me some shot when I woke from my pain, but he said it would help. But did it really help me. I don't know what is real and what is fiction. Isn't there someone, somewhere who can tell me what is going on here. I can't think much longer as sleep takes my mind.

When I woke up Richard was gone and I was in his bed. We have been at his two-bedroom house for less then a week. He said this was the safest place, away from him. Away from Duo.

I still can't remember my past, but Richard seems to know a lot about me. So he tells me. But I don't know if I can trust me, and I'm faced with another problem. That adds so many more problems. Duo Maxwell. Richard tells me he is my enemy, but that is all. Nothing more.

The red headman came through the door with a smile on his face. It was a fake; I had seen his true smile, when he talked of killing my enemy. Or his, or is it both of our enemy. I just don't know anymore with the sting of betrayal hitting me every time I believe Richard.

" Why is this man, Duo, your enemy Richard?" I ask as he places the tray of food he has brought in with him. His smile dissipated, and his light auburn eyes went a fire.

" He has harmed me in more ways then one." He said taking a seat next to me on the bed. " He killed my brother, and has harmed you. Just to name a few. Now, he's pissed off a very important friend of mine."

I've heard this one before, and this was all I would ever get from him. This always led me to believe he is hiding something more. Not that he tells me is a lie; no he wouldn't lie to me. Just he will not tell me the whole truth, skim along the lines of truth. That works for him, but not for me. I need to know.

" Who is he?" He doesn't understand who I mean. "Who is Duo Maxwell?"

I had this burning need to know of him. Anything and everything I could find out about this man whom I have never seen. This man who has possibly hurt me, and I only know from what I'm told. It eats at me little by little. Why do I have to know? Why can't I let it drop?"

" Duo is death. That is all you need to know." He said standing up, slamming the door as he left. And after the soft click, the door was locked.

Why does he lock me up? Again I got an answer that brushed closely along with a fairy tale. With all that he does, and does not do. How can I trust him?

I lay back down on the cotton sheets. I didn't eat much of what Richard brought in; to be more precise I had one bite, and could eat no more. My eyes fell shut for a while before I heard a commotion inside the little house.

Richard came flying in the room, cussing in every langue he knew. All the while I watched him throw a laptop in bag and gripped my shirt. Dragging me out of the room as well.

"Richard," I pant out as we run down to a black car. "What's wrong?" I ask as he starts the car.

" He woke up." He whispered to himself, I wasn't supposed to hear that. But who woke up.

I look back to see two people walk out of a white Mercedes. One was a girl with long auburn hair, and dressed in a black pant's suit. The other was who caught my eyes. He stepped out of the passenger's door. With long chestnut brown hair down in a braid, he was in all black. He even had a long black trench coat on, didn't he know it is mid day and still summer time. Either way, I think he was trying to conceal something.

I watch him as we pull a way fast from the house. He stares at the car, and says my name.

"Heero." He knew me.

Richard didn't hear him; well I couldn't hear him either. I read his lips. But that doesn't matter; all that matters is who is that boy. And how does he know my name?

The ring of Richard's cell phone breaks my thoughts.

" Yeah." He said, but I can only hear his side of the conversation.

" Are the moles taken care of?" He asked, the answer must have been yes from his smile on his lips. There was more, because the other person talked on.

" Doesn't matter, either way what's done is done. Just make sure that they don't find out." Pause. " Yeah make sure he is there tonight. I'm counting on you." Another pause as the other person talks.

" Look I can't talk right now."

"Yes everything is fine and going to plan. Just make sure the other Gundam is there and that Maxwell is there as well." He clicked the phone off.

Gundam that was the name of the gang he said I ran. " Are we meting the other members of Gundam? Do they hate Duo as well? What moles are you talking about, and taken care of?" I snap at him.

He just smiles smoothly and says. " Yes and no. We are meeting a few other members." That was all he said through out our ride. I was surprised when we stopped at a school, Richmond High School, home of the Best and Brightest. It read in gold letters across the main door.
