reviews!

Duo pulled back the cloak from his head and smiled, "This feels like old times." He spoke at the figure sitting on the rooftop. Wufei ignored him and continued to stare up at the stars. "How long has it been since we last saw each other, 300, 400 years?" He asked plopping himself next to the warrior. Wufei glanced at him for a second, then turned away. "You've grown so much since then." Duo still talked knowing he was listening. Wufei stood up and started to walk away, "I have nothing to say to a weakling like yourself." Duo just chuckled, making Wufei stop. "And here I thought you looked up to me buddy." Anger rose in Wufei, as he struck Duo across the face with his fist. Duo fell to the ground, spitting out blood. "The Duo Maxwell I knew died the moment he saved a vampire." Duo just pulled himself up, his smile never leaving his face. Wufei, shock from seeing this, looked away in frustration. Duo put his hands on Wufei's shoulders, "Why are you here?" Wufei's cold eyes shot up as he pushed Duo away. "The Dark Moon." Duo just blinked, "The Dark Moon?" Wufei made his way to the edge of the building; "The prophecy's foretold of the day when night will fall upon us forever. The day vampires will rule the world, the day of the Dark Moon." Duo's eyes widen with fear, "Now? Here?" Wufei nodded. "This is the spot of the hell hole. Where the ancient shall open the gates of darkness and block the sun away forever." "The ancient?" Duo repeated, still shock from hearing all this. Wufei took a deep breath, "Treize Khushrenada." Duo kept quiet, giving him a moment of silence. "Wufei, why don't we work together?!" He spoke. Wufei didn't respond, but Duo expected as much as he disappeared. "He never said no." Duo grinned before retreating himself.

"Quatre help me!"
1.1.1 No power
"Quatre!"
"NOOOOOOOO!" Quatre opened his eyes and saw Duo in front of him. Quatre realized he had fallen asleep on the counter, "Just a dream." He told himself. Duo flicked him on his head, "Dummy. While you were sleeping, Mina took off with your money." "WHAT!?" Quatre screamed and reached for his wallet. "Wait, all my money's here?" Duo busted up laughing and fell to the floor. "HaHaHa! Man, you should have seen your face! It was priceless!" Quatre just glared at him, he wasn't in the mood for jokes. Duo finally pulled himself back to his feet and leaned on the counter. "So why so glum chum?" Quatre looked down, clasping his hands. "I wasn't able to protect her." Duo eyed his friend in concern. "I almost lost her, I don't ever want that to happen again Duo!" Quatre's hands tightened, as he fought back the anger he felt. Duo sighed and gently placed his palm on Quatre's shoulder. "I know how you feel Quatre. You want to protect the one you love with all your might. But in reality, they are in a whole different league of their own, and there's nothing we can do to stop it." Quatre forced a smile, to reassure Duo that he was fine. Satisfied that he helped, Duo picked up on a mop and continued his daily chores.
Elsewhere, Mina sat upon her motorcycle outside the police department, She shuttered at the idea of the law, but whistled at the hot recruits walking out. Inside, Krista was getting a yelling from Captain Rogers. "And another thing, what's this bullshit being spat in my face?! Huh!?" Krista gazed at the report he was holding and gulped. "You were sent here to solve this case, not just write it on a piece of paper!" Rogers shouted and threw the work across the table. Krista cleared her throat, "Can I say someth…" "NO!" Mina checked herself in her compact and smirked, "Still sexy." She then spotted a sulking Krista dragging herself from the building. "You're late." Mina said annoyed. "Sorry, I got a huge lecture from my Captain." Krista pouted as she hopped onto the bike. They drove down the streets in silence (for once). Endlessly driving on for hours, until Krista finally spoke up. "Mina." "Yeah?" "So you…you were also attacked…by them?" Krista stuttered remembering the incident. Mina glanced quietly over at her, and just nodded. "Why do they want us Mina? Why did he want to take us to the Master?!" Mina braked at the stoplight, giving her the opportunity to turn to her friend. "Hey, don't worry about it. They're stupid, they want what they can't have." Mina turned back around and quickly mumbled something. Krista smiled and rested her head on her back.
~ I won't let anything happen to you..~
Heero sat back in a chair, his green tanktop hung loosely from his shoulders. This wasn't his house, none of the houses ever belong to him. The owners he previously fed upon still lay about until someone noticed their dead corps on the ground. In the back of his mind, he can hear him laughing. "Treize." That name made Heero cringe. It was that man who made him what he was, the blood lusting creature who killed everything he touched. His best friend, his family, his love. "The time will come Master, when you'll make your fatal mistake." Heero smiled as he vanished into the night.
"BOOORED!" Mina cried, kicking the wall. Duo just laughed, "Well tough it. Quatre asked if we could watch the store for him, while he and Krista have some alone time." Mina plopped to the ground and pouted, "I wanna kill something! Why can't you watch the store and I go hunting?" "Uh…Well…" Duo stuttered, trying to think of a good reason to get her to stay. "It takes two to…Mina? Mina!" Duo realized Mina had already sneaked out of the store while he was thinking. "That little…" Duo scowled as he ran out the door and clicked the open sign off.

Quatre and Krista walked on the docks, hand and hand. Quatre had asked her earlier if they could go somewhere and talk; Krista had never seen Quatre so serious. They stopped by the rail and stared into the ocean shores. Quatre held Krista tightly, making her blush a bit. "Krista" She looked up into his baby blue eyes and smiled, "Yeah Quatre?" His gaze never left the water, "You, Mina, and Duo are all my friends." Krista shifted a bit, trying to understand what he was getting at. "But I'm not like you guys, I will get old and die someday. And you will always keep on living, forever and ever." He spoke finally turning towards her. "What are you saying Quatre?" Krista jumped a bit when he grabbed her shoulders. "Make me a vampire." Krista was overwhelmed with shockness as he said that, she couldn't believe her ears. Quatre tightened the grip he had on her, "I want to protect you always! I want to be by your side, always! Please, I love you so much!" Quatre then hugged Krista, who still was in denial. "Quatre, I can't…I can't do that to you." "Please Krista, I want this. Let me become a half vampire like you, like Mina. And we can all be together, always!" Krista began to shake. She was confused, she didn't know what to do. Of course she wanted to be with him forever, but no one should suffer being a vampire. The pain and hunger you go day by day in, only relaying on an elixir. Knowing, any day you could snap and kill someone. Krista pulled from his embrace and placed her hands on his face. She lifted it up to her level and kissed him, "Alright, let's do it." Everything after that seem like a blur, as she sucked the blood from him. She then cut her wrist, and let him drink from it. "Just like before." She thought, thinking of when she was made. In her hands, Krista held a vile Quatre had given her. It would stop the transaction from completing, stop him from becoming a vampire. "I'm sorry." She whispered to Quatre as she watched him scream in pain on the ground and die.
Was this chapter confusing? That dream of Quatre was Trowa and Krista talking, Trowa taunting and Krista shouting. Next chapter, Mina is not happy about what Krista has done. So she and Duo take a little time off together, will this be the day Duo finally gets some nookie? All to come next time in "Mina's Day Off!", see ya!
