Last time on Tricks of Fate: Heero finds Damon... Heero never missed. He had hit his target. Damon was clearly bleeding, and from his heart too. But then, how can he still be standing, alive, and laughing as if it was nothing but a scratch...? How?

Chapter 5

Relena's dream.

Peacecraft Mansion.

Relena was lying in her room, asleep. Her door was locked. Zechs made sure it was, because she had tried to run away. And being in the state of mind she was, they couldn't let anything happen to her. She was tormented and afraid and ever since Heero found she had been like this. Distressed and scared like hell of everyone and everything. They had to sedate her.

Right now she was sleeping and the sedative was wearing off, taking Relena into a strange world where dreams and reality collide.

She sees nothing but darkness and hears a terrible voice that makes her shiver. She heard a laugh that made her want to run away screaming. She wanted to scream for help but she couldn't. She started sobbing. Then that darkness lifted and she started to make out figures and objects in font of her. Heero was standing in a warehouse looking shocked and there was another figure that looked inhuman standing in front of him, laughing evilly.

"Nice shot. But you'll have to do better than that." The voice came from the creature.

Heero said quietly as if to himself, "How is this possible? I shot you right through the heart." "You won't be able to kill me. I will have my revenge. Your Relena will forever be insane and you will be tormented. Even if you manage to cure her, I will make sure she will never be able to bear looking at you. She will never see you the same way ever again." Heero just glared at him. He then said, in a calm voice, "You can't do anything." "Oh, so you think you an get over it? What if I say, I know you were planning to ask her to marry you? What if I say I knew and that is why I made her insane? That's why I made her hate you. I will never let you be happy. And I don't care about what happens to her. I don't care about the peace. She will always hate you. She will never marry you."

"What makes you think you can destroy love?" Heero said. Then he looked shocked with himself at what he had said. Did he actually say that?

Damon was silent, then he said, "Well, I have to say, I never expected you to say that." He chuckles. "I guess you do love her."

"Love is stronger than anything. You can't break it." Heero had a glazed look in his eyes, and was speaking as if someone else had taken over him. As if someone else was speaking for him.

Heero...

*****

Heero suddenly snapped out of the trance. "Relena...?"

"Huh...?" Damon said confused.

Heero looks up at Damon and rushes at him. (AN: I don't know if I'm good at fighting scenes. Sorry.) Heero punches the surprised Damon a few times. After a few punches, Damon manages to block Heero's punches and kicks and jump away. "Hmm... If that's the way you want it. Fine." Damon shouted, already his breathing was fast. He lunges at Heero but just at the last second, Heero moves out of the way. Damon stumbles. "No..." Damon shouts. "You can't try the same trick on me again." Damon turns around to see that Heero is nowhere around. "Ahhhhh...Where are you?" He shouts angrily. He suddenly feels pain on his back and is pushed forward. He manages to stop himself fro falling. He takes out something that looks like a pencil from his pocket and holds it tightly in his right hand and turns around. "I'm going to make you sorry you were EVER BORN." And he rushes at Heero with the object in his hand. Heero manages to stop him from jabbing it into him, by grabbing Damon's hand. "You think something so small is going to hurt me?" Heero said in his monotone voice. "It will make you life a living HELL. It will turn you into a hideous monster like you did to ME. NOONE will want to look at you. Children will be so scared. They will run away screaming. Relena will be so revolted, she won't be able to look at you, let alone marry you." All the while Damon was trying to jab the poison into Heero, but Heero did his best to stop him from doing just that. Heero kicked Damon in the stomach with his knee and then kicked him in the face while he was hunched down, throwing him to the ground. Heero walked up to Damon, knife in hand. "I will tell you one last time. I'm sorry for what happened. It was an accident. But I will not forgive you for what you did to Relena." Heero raised his knife as Damon was getting up. Damon raised the pencil like object in his hand and quickly stabbed at Heero. Everything stopped. No one moved. Damon smiled and looked at Heero. Heero's face was expressionless. Damon's smile slowly faded. He coughed. Blood started flowing down his chin from his mouth. Heero pushed him away. Damon had a knife in his throat, but... the pencil like object was poking in Heero's stomach. Damon fell to the ground. He didn't move. He wasn't breathing. His eyes didn't have any life in them. He was dead. "Stay away from my life." Heero said while walking away Heero looked down. And pulled the injector (pencil shaped) out of his stomach.

*****

Noin walked into Relena's room. She saw her sitting up in her bed. She looked up. "Where's... Heero?" She said.

Noin looked at her, surprised.

"Relena. Are you feeling ok?" Relena smiled faintly. "I think so. I will be, When Heero comes back." "I haven't seen him for weeks. Sorry Relena. "Noin said, looking sad and not sure if she should tell her.

(A/N: Find out what happens next on the next chapter. Do Heero and Relena get together, something terrible has happened and where is Heero?... Fate is cruel.

Coming soon, hopefully.

Really sorry for the delay. I lost my inspiration for some days. And I haven't been getting any reviews... if you want me to continue, then you have to review. I don't think this chapter is very good. What do you think?

Please review, pretty please. Only 6 reviews!!! Tell me if you like it or not. Once again, any feedback/response is welcome, anything...Should I write more? Or should I just go and write something else? )
