Fate of Peace

Act 9 ~ Dreams, Plagues, and Headaches

~*~*~*~
"Second strike! Doctor you have to leave now!" so dark... I can't see where am I? "Maxwell get
out there's wounded waiting!" people hurt? I got to go. I have to save them, please you must
understand they're only children... I'm running now, I'm looking but I can't see. I know I have to
find something... someone? Unknown hands reach out to me trying to grab hold, they need help.
But there is someone I have to find.

Racing harder I stop suddenly, there. The ground is wet, why it's not raining. Tripping I land
face first in a red pool... it's blood. Blood of the people I couldn't save. Still I have to find him.
Staggering to my feet I hear my name called, "Duo! Please help!" hurrying over to the prone
body before me, reach out. A crimson hand catches my wrist, "Why Duo? Why couldn't you save
me?"

Choking back a sob I cover my mouth... it's Heero. Hot tears roll down my face, I can't stop...
Heero's lying before me stomach ripped open... oh god he's torn apart. "Duo Why can't you
save me?" crying harder I try to help, try to ease the pain but my hands... they won't move. "I
can't Heero I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." large blue eyes fill with tears, "It hurts..." sobbing harder I
struggle against the invisible bonds holding me "Heero! I'm sorry! I'm sorry..."
"Duo!" a blood red hand reaches out "Duo!"

"Duo!"

"Duo!"

My eyes snap open suddenly, tensing I immediately try to get my bearings, there's a face looming
over mine. "Wha..." a hand stroking the side of my face, trying to focus I blink rapidly funny my
eyes seem to be watering. "Duo are you ok? You kept saying you where sorry..." that voice
Heero... Heero was safe. Bolting upright I pulled my lover into a tight embrace burying my face
in that beautifully silky hair. "I'm fine honey, just a nightmare..."

Feeling him nod Heero wrapped his arms around my chest, " Do you want to tell me what it was
about?" raising a shaky hand I cupped the back of his head softly, "Not really love, something I
really don't want to relive..." nodding in understanding he just snuggled closer.

Soon I felt my muscles relaxing as I held the most important person in my life close and safe.
Heero sighed as I gently massaged his back, running my hands over the smooth pales of muscles.
"I guess I just lack the confidence..." softly I spoke, trying not to ruin the mood to badly. "When I
was in medical school I was untouchable, I showed up late for class I ran off at the mouth... to me
it was all a free ride. Still... all my life I wanted someone to acknowledge me. I loved the
Maxwell church, Sister Helen and Father Maxwell they were the only real family. I was one face
among many, not really special just an expendable life".

I felt Heero tense soothingly I continued moving my hands, " It was in the first days of war I
learned the most I think. I thought I was good, but seeing those men come in blown to hell... I
lost it all Heero". Pulling away to look me in the eye he smiled encouragingly, "The way I act is
all a front. Every time I get into an operating room I'm so afraid I'll mess up, I couldn't save
those boys in the war and now..." laughing bitterly I closed my eyes, "Now I can't even look after
myself..."

Strong hands cupped my face, causing me to open my eyes slightly shocked by the strong grip,
"No Duo..." Heero rubbed the pad of his thumb across my cheek, "No, you are a great man Duo.
What you did for Quatre was amazing I couldn't do it, and I know for a fact Trowa is ready to
worship the ground you walk on for saving his 'little one'". Feeling my cheeks heat up I tried to
look away, but those capable hands held me in place, "Live Duo, if nothing else then live and do
what you want. I'm sure there are many mother, sisters, wives, brothers, husbands even lovers
who are grateful you returned their loved ones to them".

Leaning forward Heero pressed our foreheads together, "And you know what? I'm glad that
you're here with me right now Duo Maxwell, too me you are a one of a kind..." feeling like I was
about to cry I kissed him tenderly lazily exploring every inch of that delectable mouth. Parting I
wrapped my arms around my koi's waist as he likewise hugged my shoulders, "Love you
Heero..." sighing happily Hee-chan rested his head against my heart, "Ai shiteru Duo".

Stretching out once more I pulled Heero with me, school didn't start for at lest five hours yet and
I needed some undisturbed sleep. "Maybe I should go back to my room Hee-chan I need some
fresh clothing an-" cutting me off with a kiss the devious little minx smiled "Got you a fresh
uniform, so here you stay!" emphasizing his words he collapsed across me holding me down,
well if you can't beat'em join'em.

~*~*~*~*~

Hell. It was a living hell... I really must have screwed up in a past life for here I sat staring, no
glaring at the most vile and loathsome creature on the face of the Earth. Said evil creature was
draped all over MY Heero... and I couldn't do a thing about it because I was 'protecting' the pink
bitch... dramatic irony bites like a rabid monkey.

My only consolation was the big eyed looks Heero kept throwing me, you know the look that
said 'I-really-can't-get-rid-of-her'. Cracking my knuckles I glared some more and you know what
Relena gave me this big smirk. Cooing she ran her hands over Heero's shoulders trying to look
coy and sexy... to me she looked like a porcupine caught in a lawn mower... don't ask.

"Umm...Daisy?" not taking my eyes off the sickening sight in front of me I grunted in reaction to
Hilde's request, "Uh Daisy if you stare any harder I think your eyes are going to fall out".
Grunting again I clutched the table hard, that Relena's got some awfully busy hands, "Daisy it's
ok..." this time Wufei was trying to help out, god bless them both I had explained the situation
and they promised to help me out... still there's MY Hee-chan and that horrible stupi- a sudden
crack got the attention of everyone in the cafeteria.

Feeling my cheeks heat up I looked down at my hands whom seemed to be clutching a rather
large piece of the table... oops. Laughing nervously I handed the hunk of table to a shocked
Hilde, before sprinting out the doors to the front lawn. Why oh why did I go and rip off a piece of
the cafeteria table? Damn shotty workmanship, when a man purchase a table he has expectations!

Reaching the large tree situated near the far wall of the school I decided maybe a little nap was in
order. Funny how things always seemed better after a nice long sleep.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Someone was playing with my hair, normally I wouldn't let people touch my hair but... this... this
person was an exception. Opening my eyes I looked up into wide blue pools... hmm maybe I
should be a song writer. "Heya Hee-chan," reaching up I brushed windblown hair away from that
heart achingly beautiful face. Smiling slightly Heero gave me a quick kiss on the nose leaving me
pretty much giggling helplessly.

"Oi, gotta be careful around you..." grinning I sat up pulling the little honey into my arms. Now
this, this was right no Uber bitch no nasty mission just me and Heero. "I don't like the way she
hangs off you Heero," so sue me I was some kinda jealous. Nuzzling my neck he nipped lightly
at the very, super sensitive spot below my ear. Little devil already worked out my weaknesses...
"I know Duo, but I've known Relena a long time and I'm kind of like her older brother in a
sense," sighing I hugged my little Hee-chan tight, "I know love, as much as I dislike it I know..."

I really wanted to stay sitting under the tree cuddling, but I had appearances to keep up, "Come
on Heero, lets get going it's time for gym..." standing the two of us brushed off our uniforms
before heading towards the large stone building. "Blah! I'll be happy when I don't have to weare
a skirt," stupid things very impractical. " I don't know I think you look cute," it took me all of a
second to realize Heero made a joke. Heero made a joke. I pretty sure at about that time I had an
aneurysm as I was doubled over unable to control the hysterical very un-feminie laughter.

~*~*~*~

Art class... the class only for men that are of true courage and valour. Then there's me. On the
alert for something to happen, my hawk-like eyes were torn between Heero furiously sketching
and looking for trouble. Ok here's the big question, do I watch Heero sitting there looking
adorable with his adorable pink little tounge, sticking out the side of his adorable little mouth? Or
do I watch the walking pink plague? Hmm... is that really a choice?

Ok, ok focus Maxwell... deciding to continue my split attention I groaned aloud when the said
plague sauntered towards us, "Heeeerrrrroooo!" ugh and shudder. Once again I was forced to
make sure I didn't grab the table lest we have another cafeteria incident, instead I went for the
glare. "Well Heero, I just wanted to make sure you'd be there on Friday," rolling my eyes
heavenward I faked disinterest, "Comming to what Relena?" good Heero managed to work in
some distaste there. "You know silly, I told you earlier..." gag me with a spoon, "Listen Relena I
probably wasn't listening I was in awe of that power you wield," ooh... sarcasm... "Well Heero
I'm having a press conference at the school on Fri-".

The two looked at me the second I feel off my chair with a nice sounding crack, oh I'll be feeling
that one later. Sticking my head over the table I gave my most innocent smile, "Really Relena a
press conference?" the blond girl nodded warily, good I'll put the fear of Shinigami in her.. "Of
course I'm making one of my famous speeches. Well anyway I want you up there with me Heero,
you know as support. So good then I'll see you then". Turning she flounced away. Che, who
flounces nowadays stupid thing to do.

"Duo?" Heero was looking at me with concern as I sat mostly under the table with my head
peeking over the edge, "You know what this means Hee-chan? It means my job got a whole hell
of a lot harder".

~*~*~*~*~

Later that night found me in my room. Alone. As much as I wanted to sleep with Heero again...
and again, I needed some thinking time. Things where complex and in my lovely analytical mind
I needed some straining out. Having shed my skirt from black sweats and tank I hit the floor and
started crunching. Good ok this is a start some nice physical exercise gets the brain juice going.

"So lets review, first off on my first day I was stabbed by a knife... hmm... it was a small knife
didn't do a lot of damage. The next was a sniper rifle in art class..." halting my motions I pulled
off my hot tank top and continued with sit-ups. "After the rife was the bomb at the club, not in art
class." Did I mention talking aloud helps me too think? Oh well it does. "But the bomb nearly
killed Quatre..." that one stumped me, turning onto my stomach I started on push-ups. "The most
recent being the men yesterday... in art class...ok there's something I'm missing here".

Frustrated I went over it again and again, things got harder and harder to comprehend. Exhausted
I finally collapsed panting on the floor, this was getting me no where I was tired and sweaty and
well... I had one hell of a headache.

Sighing I heaved myself off the floor heading for the shower, hopefully things would make sense
soon, but from where I'm standing things are a whole hell of a lot more complex then I thought.
Like I said before, things are just getting started.
TBC...
