AN: Waaaassssssuuuuupppp?!?!?! *sweat drops* Yeah. Here comes part 2. If you didn't like the first chapter then don't read this one. If you did, you'll love this one. This story is meant to prove how harmful some dreams can be. If it doesn't hit home I can't make you understand it. Enough of my babble though, on with the chapter!


DISCLAIMERS: I DON'T OWN GUNDAM WING OR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS I ONLY OWN MY FREAKY LITTLE IDEAS AND SEVERAL POSTERS SO IF YOU SUE ME THAT IS ALL YOU WILL GET.

Darkness Rising

A month came and went. The people were in shock. Relena's funeral was a sad day for all of Earth as well as the colonies. How could this have happened to one so loved by every one? They just couldn't believe it. No matter what could have happened next, they would never be prepared for what did.
The eyes drew closer to him. Ever closer. Suddenly a piercing scream filled the night. He saw Relena being ripped from him, never again to smile and comfort him. Though the moment was awful he couldn't help but notice the heavenly beauty she possessed. Angel wings sprouted from her back as she lifted skyward. Higher and higher she rose. Then she began to sing a song.

'Darkness is rising,
Save them for me,
I'll always be with you,
Hope will prevail,
No matter what happens,
I'll be waiting,
You'll see...'

As her voice faded the darkness enveloped his senses again. He choked as a foul scent that he knew crept in on him from all sides. All soldiers knew the smell; they had to if they called themselves a soldier. The scent of Death was everywhere. It was overwhelming. He collapsed to his knees and gasped for breath. As if they had been waiting for that moment, the hands of all of those who he had destroyed shot up from the ground grabbing hold of him. Their touch was like ice yet burned like fire. He screamed out in agony, but none loosened their grip. His vision swam before his eyes. The earth beneath him opened up like the mouth of a wild monster waiting for its meal. And he fell.
Heero woke as he hit the floor. He was tangled in sheets and had rolled off of the bed. He had not gotten a full night's sleep ever since that first dream. Now they haunted while he was awake too. He walked into the bathroom for his now daily earl, early, early cold shower. His lab trotted up to him with a stupid grin plastered to her face. She licked Heero's hand as he started the shower.
"Not now Lena. I'm not in the mood," he said patting the dog's head as he stripped off his P.J.s and hopped into the shower. The dog whined loudly when Heero closed the shower door and paced like mad. Now this worried Heero. Lena never acted like this in the amount of time he had owned her. He climbed out of the shower and dried of.
"What's the matter girl," he scratched behind her ears and looked deep into her dark brown eyes. He got dressed and attached the leash to her collar. "Come on Lena! Let's go!" He opened the door and Lena tore out yanking him along behind her. She dragged him down 2 flights of steps, across and over 5 blocks and sat down beside a tree. Heero was about to scold her when... BOOM! Heero looked up in surprise. He started to run back towards their apartment dragging Lena along behind him. When he got there the place was in flames.
"Oh my..." Heero stared into the flames. He could have been killed. He turned and looked at Lena. She just thumped her tail against the ground, grinning that stupid grin he had grown so fond of.
"Heero, you can stay with us! I'm sure Hilde won't mind. Will ya Hilde? Nope, thought not. Now come on! I'll show you to the room you can stay in." Duo bounced up the stairs with his braid waving madly behind him. He had been first to hear about the 'accident' and had immediately offered Heero a place to stay. He wouldn't take no for an answer so Heero gave into the hyper little ball of hair spray.
'It won't do any good to argue with him.' He shrugged as he followed Duo down the hall. After he got settled he took a quick nap. Not exactly the brightest idea he ever had though.
'I will have you no matter what!'
'I still don't know who the Hell you are!'
'I still say you are going to have to wait, boy'
Heero woke to gunfire down stairs. 'No not again!' Heero removed the safety lock from his pistol and hurried down the stairs. Duo and Hilde were sitting on the couch watching an old Western. Heero sighed and reset the lock. He walked over to Duo.
"What's this about?" He asked him. No answer.
"Yoo hoo!" He waved a hand in front of Duo's face. Still no response.
"Duo, stop it now!" Heero smacked him on the back of the head. To his horror, Duo slumped forward to reveal writing in blood on his back. 'You are still one...' He moved over to Hilde and tapped her. She fell forward to reveal the rest of the message. 'of us. One of the Night.'
"No. What do you want from me?" He screamed it out to any one who'd hear or care.
Far away, the Dark Lord chuckled evilly.
"He's mine."
