Part 18: The Death of a Bitch
Heero and Zechs helped Relena settle back in. Solange walked in, looking smug and unusually happy. Relena turned to see her and smiled a little. She was still puzzled by the weird interaction between Solange and Dorothy. For some reason, it just wouldn't leave her mind.
" Hi, Solange." Relena said, stepping forward, away from her balcony doorway. Solange smiled and looked at her in the most peculiar way. Her eyes fluttered. Relena thought she almost saw death in her eyes. The emotions swirling around them were articulate and incoherent at the same time.
" Hi, Relena. I hope you have settled in and are feeling better." Solange said, actually being nice. Relena smiled uncertainly again and looked away from Solange's piercing gaze. Heero watched quietly and glanced at Zechs. Zechs shrugged and started for the door.
" I'll see you later, Rel. By Heero." Solange said. She walked out and glanced evilly at Heero before leaving.
That night, Relena was eating a large piece of cake in front of Heero. He looked at her.
" If you don't stop drooling over my cake, you're not going to get any, Heero."
" Get any of what? The cake or you?" Heero asked seductively. Relena looked at him.
" Neither. You've been keeping things from me, Mr. Yuy. I don't appreciate that. Who do you think is trying to have me for breakfast, lunch, and dinner?" Relena asked. Heero looked away from her and stood. Relena stood. She sauntered over to him.
" You know who I am talking about, Heero. Don't play me for a fool. Who do you think is trying to kill me?" Relena asked again, trying to catch his eyes.
" What would telling you accomplish, Relena? I don't want to start panic in this house just because you want to know my opinion." Heero said, walking away, leaving Relena to gawk after him.
" Fine, be a jerk. I don't really care." Relena said. She went back to her cake and ate it ferociously.
The next morning, Solange was up early. The hangover that she had was making her irritable. She looked in the mirror and saw the hideousness of her face.
" You should see a doctor, Solange. You don't look too good." A smooth, no hesitation voice said. Solange turned around in a wobbly and unstable manner.
" What the fuck are you doing here, Dorothy. You shouldn't be here." Solange whispered. Dorothy smiled.
" I'm simply here to discuss the finality of this little plan. Why else would I be here?" Dorothy fingered the silver gun in her gloved hands. She smiled wryly. Solange frowned.
" You don't get it, do you? They're on to us, Dorothy. Especially that damn Heero character." Solange complained. Dorothy stood.
" They're not on to us, Solange." Dorothy said calmly. She stood. Solange watched her uncertainly.
" They're not?"
" No. They're on to you." Dorothy stabbed Solange in the chest. Solange looked down. Dorothy grinned sadistically and removed the knife from her. Solange fell to her knees.
" You bitch." She whispered. Dorothy took a slash sideways, ridding Solange of her life.
" Thank you." Dorothy smiled and walked off.
Relena's blue eyes popped open. The rain poured outside. Something just didn't feel right. Heero walked in her room.
" Relena, I'm sorry, but Solange is dead. They found her in her condo in the city. She was attacked this morning." Heero said, walking over to her. Relena sat, staring at nothing in particular. Heero sat on her bed.
" Are you okay, Relena." Heero asked. Relena just stared at something right past him. Then she blinked.
" Solange is dead? Solange as in my manager Solange?" Relena asked.
" Yes."
" But, how? I know she wasn't nice, but why kill her." Relena looked sad in a weird way. Her eyes filled with tears. Why is everyone in her life dying. Next would most likely be Heero or worst...Zechs. She didn't know how she would take that.
AN: So the killer is killed by her partner? This is getting pretty good, if I do say so myself. Let's see what Dorothy has to do to kill Relena.
