T: Hello everyone and thank you for sticking with us. We got our couple of reviews so we're really happy!!!! ^.^

YJ: Yeah sure, whatever, thanks.

T: No, we do not own gundam wing or any characters from said show. We politely request that we are not sued, since we made no money off of this and all we own is this laptop we're writing on and it's a hunk of junk.

Jade: ok you two shut up, story time! ::gets a shoe thrown at her:: x.x ow on with the show...

Chapter 1: Truth revealed.

Duo Maxwell, infamous shinigami, headed out of the safe house with murder in his eyes. He went straight to his gundam and pulled out his laptop, marching back into the safe house. Three sets of eyes followed him with worried expressions. He went up to his room and plugged in the laptop. Clicking and minutes later he was tapped into the info network that he'd seen Heero working in all the time. He searched through the mission files to find out just where Heero was when he was captured. Zyfer base? What the heck was Zyfer base? He'd never heard of it before.

Apparently it was a new base of operations for a top secret weapon that OZ had just developed. Suspicious. He dug alittle deeper into the file and found out that Heero had done recon on the base and found out that the weapon was developed to combat the gundams, since they were the only true threat. What sort of weapon were they working on powerful enough to destroy a gundam with a single bullet? Heero didnt know....or hadnt been able to report when he'd found out. Duo's knuckles turned white and he slammed his fist into the wall nearby. "Damn!" he muttured. "Damn damn damn." Suddenly the computer screen went blank and then came up blue.

Words appeared, letter by letter, on his screen. "Looking for something?" Duo blanched...pretty high tech if they could find him..since he prided himself on his computer skills. "Heero Yuy." he typed in. Ok, he would play if this "mysterious typer" wanted to. "I know where he is." came the reply. Ok, just alittle freaky. "Will you tell me?" He typed and then hesitantly hit enter. "Perhaps I will, but it's not Heero I want. It's you. I will give you Heero Yuy if you meet me, place and time of your chosing, alone and unarmed, for the release of one, Heero Yuy. Think about it. I will be in touch with you once you have made your decision. Sleep well tonight Mr. Maxwell. Tomorrow our game begins." Duo read it and blinked...ok more than freaky, down right scary.

His original screen appeared and he backed out, turning off his laptop. He stood and stretched, his mind reeling. So they wanted him, not Heero. What would they do to him if he gave himself up? Would they really release Heero? He didnt think he really had a choice. On the one hand he could be facing the end of his own existance or the end of his love's existance....such a decision so little time. He knew the answer in his heart. Yes, he would give himself up if it gave Heero a chance to live. Yes, he would willingly walk into torture and death, who else knows what, if it meant that this sick person would release Heero.

Duo undid his hair and combed through it, then undressed and climbed into bed. He hugged a pillow close and willed sleep to claim him, but alas, sleep was far from his mind. All he could see was Heero, chained and in a cell, alone. Tomorrow their game would begin? What game did Heero's captor have in mind for him? What did he truly want if not 01? Too many questions to worry about tonight. He shut his eyes and cleared his mind. 4 Hours before sunrise he finally found alittle peace in sleep. But his dreams were haunted with the memories of his time spent with Heero and what the loss of his beloved would mean. Even in his sleep tears leaked from under his eyelids and spilled onto the pillow, in the morning he would dismiss them as sweat.
