Time Unknown . . . . .

Area unknown . . . . .

"YOU FAILED?!" screamed a voice. The would be kidnappers of Prince Solo flinched at the venomous voice that screamed at them. "THAT BRAT IS THE KEY TO THIS WHOLE PLAN?!"

"Calm yourself, Relena-Sama" said a softer voice. "Queen Dumaia and King Odin had more then one child, they do have twin sons, Duex and Deuce". Relena turned around and glared at the general that was standing behind her.

"No!! We need the Empathic prince!!"said Relena. "He has a link to the mother . . . We need that". She turned around and began pacing.

"Relena-Sama? I hear that the Prince is very attached to his brothers" said a soldier. "Why not use that to your advantage? Kidnap the twin princes and use them to lure their brother into a trap?" Relena turned and smiled. A cruel and sadistic smile.

"Brilliant . . . See to it".

"Yes, Milady".

May 7th / 207 AC . . . . .

Dusha Kingdom, Dusha Palace . . . . .

Heero looked up as the red alerts chorused through the Palace halls. He pulled out his ever-trusty gun from what his wife still called Spandex Space. (AN: Couldn't resist . . . It's Heero ^-^). He set off running. He noticed Duex and Deuce's Nanny emerge from the twins' room, coughing.

"Juanita? Where are the twins?"

Juanita, a long time servant of the Silvercraft family, looked up at the King. "They took them . . . The soldiers garbbed in red" Juanita spoke. She collapsed, with Heero catching her. Ash, Zechs, Trowa and Wufei rounded the corner, their guns out. "Forgive me, My King, I failed to protect your sons".

"No, there is nothing to forgive" Heero replied, gently. "You have not failed me nor my wife". Duo appeared with Une, Sally, Quatre and Noin. Heero looked up at his wife. She covered her mouth. They heard a scream.

"That's Lelena?!" Noin gasped. Heero left Juanita in the care of several of the Palace guards. The adults rushed out. Shadow and Mimic held each of the twin princes in their arms, they lay gasping on the ground. Several other guards were guarding the children. "LELENA!!! LUCAS!!!" Noin scooped her twin children into her arms. She and Zechs hugged them tight. Quatre and Trowa pulled their son, Alexander and their daughter, Trinity, into their arms. Kissing their heads and hugging them. Ash and Une hugged Mariemaia and their other child, Nicholas, tight to their bodies. Heero and Duo gathered the twins into their arms while Shadow and Mimic were hugged by their own children, Joshua and Justin. Sally and Wufei hugged their daughters, Meiran and Meilin close.

"Duex? Sweetie, are you and Deuce alright?" Duo inquired. Shakily, the twins nodded, they clung tighter to their parents. "Do you know what they wanted?"

"Dunno" Deuce said. "They just grabbed us . . . Momma, is Juanita okay?" Duo nodded. She rocked back and forth, soothing Duex's frazzled nerves.

"Why don't we go in?" Quatre suggested. Slowly, they made their way into the palace. Solo and Zero appeared around the corner, flushed and breathing hard.

"What happened?" Solo inquired. "Duex? Deuce?"

"Everything is okay" Duo said, absently. Solo's eyebrows knotted downwards in confusion. Quatre made to open his mouth to remind Duo of Solo ability but the Empathic prince nodded and turned away. He stepped aside and watched his parents walk past. Zero looked at the other, with an eyebrow raised.

"It's okay, Zero" Solo said. "Momma was just worried . . . She gets like that, it's nothing new". This was after they had all left. He rubbed his head. "Honest, Zero".

"If you say so". The two walked back down the hallway, Solo sighed and rubbed his temples. "Are you alright?"

"The emotion is a little over powering . . . I forgot to close my shields . . . Oh, well, I'll just deal with it". The two entered the Playroom. Solo looked at his brothers. He could feel something emitting from them but couldn't tell what. He moved closer, trying to shove all the emotions aside and concentrate on that sole emotion. He reached out and laid a hand on Deux's back and was immediately sucked in.

// Empty Amethyst eyes staring up at him, accusingly. The screams of his parents and others could be heard above the roar of guns. His eyes looked at his hands, they were covered in blood . . . His brothers' blood. He screamed.//

Solo stumbled backwards, his Uncle Ash catching him. "Solo, Honey, are you alright?"Duo inquired. Solo nodded and looked at his hands. He screamed. For staring back at him, was his brother's blood.

Area Unknown . . . . . . .

"One failure after another . . . . . St. Croix, your men's moronic intentions are driving me up the wall" Relena hissed. "IF they do not get their act together, then we will never be able to defeat Dusha and claim our goals". She turned around and glared at the map of Dusha Kingdom. (I will never claim Heero as mine and kill that Bitch and her deathspawn). Then suddenly, something clicked. (Deathspawn . . . . Maxwell always claimed to be Shineegami or Shinigami. Then the boy must think of himself of the Shi ni Tenshi or Shinigami . . . . Which means-------)

Relena gave a sadistic smiled. She didn't worry about capturing the brat. He was going to do all the work for her. He would be the one to destroy his prescious family and she didn't have to lift a finger. The aging General looked at Relena's evil smile and, nearly, shuddered. He did not want to know what was going through her mind at all. He turned away and left the room.

May 10th / 207 AC . . . . . .

Dusha Kingdom, Dusha Palace. . . . . . .

Heero rubbed his face. Everything was going straight to hell. He was sitting in his private study, thinking about the behaviour of his family. The Twins were clinging to him and Duo, terrified to be left alone. Fearing the soldiers garbed in red would try and take them again. Duo was growing distant, something was bothering her. Something that she didn't care to enlighten him with. Solo . . . . Solo was the worst. He rarely slept anymore, terrified of shadows in the dark. He rarely eat; he was withdrawn; drawing himself away from his parents and family. Heero rubbed his face again. His family was breaking up apart at the seams and Heero didn't have a clue about how to fix it.

-----------------

Solo was watching his exhausted father from the secret door to his study. He wanted, desperately, to consol his father about what was happening. But how could he consol someone when he wanted comfort himself. Zero had tried to ease his pain, but Solo wanted the comfort of his family. Of his parents but he didn't know how to communicate with them, anymore. Solo turned away. He walked away, slowly. He was tired . . . . No, he was beyond tired, he was exhausted. He hadn't slept since the day that his brothers were nearly kidnapped. Solo stumbled and collided with someone. He looked up to see Zero. The elder boy said nothing except scoop the younger into his arms. Solo didn't protest, he rested his head against Zero's shoulder, his amethyst eyes closing.

Zero gazed at the Crown Prince. He couldn't help but feel somewhat helpless at the situation presented to him. He was supposed to portect the Royal family, that was his mission. But he couldn't. The family was breaking apart and the Cyborg didn't know what to do. He desperately wanted to help but he didn't know how. He wasn't programed for this. He was programmed for combat, for battle. He was a soldier not a psychiartist. Zero entered Solo's room and rested the young prince unto his large bed and crawled in behind him. Zero held Solo close, hoping to give the boy some sleeping that was undisturbed by Visions. Oh, Solo had confided in him about the bloody visions he had been getting for the past two years, ever since he was ten. But Zero didn't understand why. Zero nuzzled his face into Solo's unruly brown hair and breathed in the deep herbal scent that was uniquely Solo. The boy snuggled back into Zero's chest, fully sleeping. Zero closed his crimson eyes and allowed sleep to claim him. They were totally unaware of the figure that watched them.

-----------------

Solo bolted up and out of the bed, he barely made into the bathroom before he released what was in his stomach. Which was nothing. Bile and blood was what came up instead of food. Solo threw up until he was doing nothing but dry heaving. He collapsed backwards, choking back sobs. He wanted this to end. He wanted this to stop. But he didn't know how. Solo, shakily, stood but collapsed again. He wiped furiously at the tears streaking down his face. "Momma" Solo whispered. He couldn't stop crying, he sobbed heavily. That was it . . . . He wanted his parents. He crawled out into his room, no one was around. Zero must have left to get something to eat. Solo stopped and took a shuddering breath. "MMMMOOOOMMMMAAAA!!!!! PPPPOOOOPPPPPAAAA!!!!!" He felt something grabbed him around the neck cut off his air supply. Solo choked.

"Yes, call your Momma and Poppa, Brat" came a hiss. "Call them". Solo gasped, trying to relieve the black spots that were dancing on his vision. "Go ahead, scream for your Momma and Poppa". Solo gasped again. He was thrown against the wall, he gazed up into an all to familiar face. Solo screamed.

"What, not happy to see me?" inquired Raphael De Gualle. He grabbed Solo's hair and yanked him up, "How have you been enjoying my little visions? Hmmm?" Solo struggled to get free. "Where are they brat!! Where are the Gundams?!"

"Solo? Sweetie, is everything alright?" came the concern voice of Duo. Raphael glared, venmonously, at the door. "Sweetie, Poppa and me heard you, are you okay?" Solo looked at the door. Tears filling in his eyes. He opened his mouth when Raphael slapped him. Solo crashed into a near by table and sent it knocking to the floor.

"Solo?! Solo, open the door!!" this was Heero's panicked voice.

"Iie, kudasai!!" Solo cried. " Doushite ore ni? Doushite?!"

"Why? To make you suffer as I have suffered" Raphael snarled. He dragged the boy up, ignoring the banging of the door. And the frantic cries of panicked parents. "it's all your fault. You've been a bad boy".

"IIE!!!" Solo shouted. "HANASE!!!" He struggled against Raphael's hold on his arm. Raphael tossed the boy like a rag doll. Solo slammed against the wall. He gazed up, terrified. "KONAIDE!!!! OTOUSAN!!! OKAASAN!!! TASUKE!!!!" Raphael made to strike the boy again when the door burst open. The two looked to see Heero, Ashton, Trowa and Wufei. The four had broke open the door. Solo wanted nothing more to be in his father's arms, "Touchan". Raphael dragged the boy and held him in front as a shield.

"One more step, Yuy, and your prescious baby boy is dead" Raphael snarled. Solo choked back a whimper, he wanted his Poppa. Lucrezia, Duo and Une along with Quatre and Zechs burst in.

"DE GUALLE!!!" Duo gasped.

"Pleasure, I sure" Raphael sneered. He dug the pistol into Solo's head, causing the boy to yelp in pain. "Where are they!! Where are the Gundams Sandarms and Deathwing?!" Duo bit her bottom lip.

"Will you release him if I tell you?" Duo countered. Raphael shoved Solo into the wall, the boy sank. A shot rang out. Raphael fell to the ground, dead. Blood spilling from the bullet wound in his neck. Everyone looked to see Zero standing there. A smoking pistol in his hand. Duo wasted no time to get to her son. She gathered the crying boy into her arms.

"Ssh, it's okay, baby" Duo cooed. "It's okay, Momma's got you. You okay, you're safe . . . Momma isn't going to let anything happen. Ssh, it's okay, sweetheart". Duo rocked the distraught child in her arms. Heero wrapped his arms around his wife and son. Allowing Solo the comfort of both his parents. Zero knelt before the three Royals.

"Solo, I believe you should reveal to them about your Visions" Zero said gently. "They can help". Solo shook his head. "Solo, you have too. If you don't, this may result in the downfall of the Dusha Kingdom". He gentle combed the boy's hair. "Solo-----"

"Naze tomatte kurenai ka?" Solo whimpered. "Naze tomatte kurenai ka?". Zero looked at Duo and Heero, confused. Duo looked to her husband. She was only limited in Japanese but she knew Heero understood Solo.

"Solo, Daijobu desu ka?" Heero inquired. "Daijobu?"

"Iie, iie" Solo sobbed. He buried his face into his father's chest, sobbing. "Ore no sei da . . . Ore no sei dai". Heero lifted his son's face up so the could look at each other.

"Iie" Heero said, gently. "Yurushite".

"Nani?" Solo stammered, he gazed in shocked at his father. What did his father had to apologize for. He never did anything. Heero smiled and kissed his forehead.

"You'll understand in time" Heero replied. He kissed Solo's forehead again. Solo rested against his father, Nodding. Duo smiled, slightly. She looked at the deceased body of Raphael. Her mind was whirling.

(Could it be that people are attacking my family because of the Gundams?) Duo thought. She rubbed her eyes and looked at her son, who was nestled, fast asleep in his father's arms. He looked so peaceful, untroubled by dreams. Duo touched her son's face, running the back of her fingers against his baby soft cheek. She smiled, again.

"Let's put him to bed" Heero said. "Duo, I want to speak to you in my study . . . . Juanita, would mind watching Solo as well as the twins?" The Nanny, who had appeared with the timid twins, nodded. Heero tucked in his son, who curled up. Duex and Duece ran over to their brother, crawling into the bed with him. Juanita sat down and watched the three princes. Zero sat down at the desk, opening a book that was there. Everyone departed, leaving the five in silence.

--------------

Heero looked at his wife as she looked ou the window. "You mind telling me what De Gualle was talking about?" Heero inquired. "The Gundams?" Duo looked at her husband and then back out the window.

"I never thought keeping them secret would be so hurtful" Duo replied. "Professor M was one of the scientists that built Gundam Wing Zero, though it was never known. He was the genius behind the Zero System, The other scientists covered it up because they knew that Professor M would be hunted down and killed. He was only twenty-six when the system was created." Duo sighed as she felt her husband's hands upon her shoulders rubbing out the tension. "M was fled space and given Haven here in Dusha by my father, Dumas. Here, M created two gundams . . . . Gundams that were far more powerful then any of the Gundams including Gundam Wing Zero that was created by the doctors". Duo rubbed her eyes. "They were Gundam Deathwing, a combination of Gundam Wing and Gundam Deathscythe Hell. And Gundam Sandarms, a combination of Gundam Heavyarms and Gundam Sandrock. Gundam Shenlong was never added in because, well, Master O was a rather secretive Bastard, he took Shenlong's plans to his grave".

"What is the system that inhabits these gundams?" Heero inquired, softly. He should have been furious at his wife for keep this from him but he had an idea why she never told him.

"Zero GT System. . . it's a system that links the pilot directly to the Gundam" Duo replied. "Instead of you piloting the gundam, you are the Gundam. Very dangerous and hard unless, you are one of the predestined pilots chosen". Heero looked at her. "I never wanted to keep this from you but . . . ." Amethyst eyes looked around from Cobalt eyes.

"Duo, what aren't you telling me?"

"Solo is the pilot of Gundam Deathscythe" Duo murmured. "I had no say in the matter! M went and took a sample of Solo's DNA and interfaced it with Deathwing. He claimed that the name of Shinigami should live on! As it had through all of my family". Heero gapped at his wife.

"What are you saying?" Heero whispered.

"I saying, Heero, that for generations" Duo snapped. "Is that my family gave up one of their one children to become the keeper of the Silvercraft blade and to become Shinigami, or Shineegami". Heero closed his eyes. "But in my case, I was kidnapped before the decision could have been made". Heero rested his forehead against his wife's.

"It's okay, I don't blame you" Heero said. "I blame those damn ancient laws". Duo buried her face into Heero's neck. Heero wrapped his arms around his wife, and rocked side to side. "It's okay, Ssh, I'm here". Duo clenched some of her husband's shirt in her hands. Heero rested his head against hers. He mumbled soft nothings in her ear, mainly for both of their comfort. They never realized that Duo's identity as Shineegami would have such an effect upon their sons.
