Duo walked, awed, to the site. Destruction was everywhere. People, or at least what
USED to be people, laying everywhere. Most were kids his age, which had been taken into the
church. Innocent war orphans, who had done nothing and had lost their parents, and now their
own lives.

His Mind finally kicked in, and he grew wide-eyed in terror as he began running franticly,
remembering his friends. "HEERO!!!HILDE!!! SISTER HELEN!!! WHERE ARE YOU?!" He asked, screaming
their names untill his voice hurt too much. Amidst the rubble, he heard someone choke out his
name. He ran over quickly and he fought back the urge to faint, or at least scream.

There lie Sister Helen, covered in her own blood, half-under the rubble from the chruch.
He couldnt figure out for the life of him why she was smiling. He walked up, looking concerned.

"Sister Helen, are you ok? I...I'm so sorry, I should have been here.... then none of
this would have happened. I..." Sister Helen Shushed him. "Duo, none of this was your fault,
I promise. But now promise me, get out of here, find Heero and Hilde, they are hopefully still
alive, but always remember this, I love you little one. I will always be with you, my Duo."
She smiled at him, her eyes sparkeling with the last amount of life she had left. Her eyes
grew tired looking and slowly closed, the last of her life gone. Duo's eyes widened in absolute
horror. No,she...she couldn't be. She had givin him his life back, brought him to the realization
that someone cared about him,that he wasnt alone in the world. No,no, she was just sleeping.
She had to be. no,no,no,no,no,no....

He tilted back his head in a violent motion. "NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"He screamed untill he
had no voice. He looked down at her form through the blur of his own tears. He heard footsteps
aproaching. He leapt to his feet. She had givin up the last amount of her life telling him
to run, and he would be damned if he got caught here. He ran into an alley, crouching down and
breathing hard. Everyone was dead. The realization hit him like a brick wall. Her last words
echoed in his head. Love? Had she said she loved him? He smiled to himself through the tears.
He was loved. It was all he ever wanted.

A shadow crossed his vision. He looked up, and saw a man with a strange looking nose.
"Boy, did you just come from that site?" The man said, pointing to the church. Duo Nodded,
for some reason, maybe it was his anger, he trusted the man. The man smiled. "How would
you like to pilot a gundam?" the man asked, smirking. Duo didnt know what a 'Gundam' Was,
but it sounded dangerous. He liked it. He nodded.

~right before operation meteor~

Duo sat in the cockpit of Deathsythe, waiting launch to go to Earth. The countdown started:
30 seconds to launch. He smiled to himself. All his life people had died telling him to run from
the alliance. The Alliance had ruined his life, destroyed his home,his friends, and his
family. Now, there would be hell to pay for it, hand delivered to them, by their own personal:

God Of Death.


~end~


Hey guys! Hope the ending wasnt too bad. Ok, just to let you know, He thought that Heero and
Hilde were dead, and they thought he was dead. Heero, being unemotional, got the point.
And this explains why Hilde was so quick to change sides. ok? Got it? ok, the sequel to
this story is Gundam Wing. Hehe, Review guys, please. I really want to have a total of 20
reviews for the story. So PLEASE review!!!
