Chapter 7
The day finally came. Violet's father was at Quatre's colony. Ready to kill anyone who had Violet with them.
"He's about a mile away,"said Heero. "You guys better get ready."
Quatre just stood there,not doing anything. He didn't know what to do. He was scared.
"Quatre...let's go."
He nodded,and left the room with Trowa.
Violet's father knocked on the door. Thank god the door's locked, Quatre thought. I don't want Violet to see this.
Trowa opened the door,to see a very tall man that was about 6 inches taller than him,and had a lot of waist. But he didn't care.
"Do you have the baby?"
Trowa just stood there,silently.
"ANSWER ME! DO YOU HAVE THE BABY?!"
"Why don't you have it?"
"Huh?"
"Why isn't the baby with you? You're the one who put her by the river bank didn't you?"
"Yeah,but--. Hey,how did you know she was by a riverbank."
"Cause I'm the one who found her."
"ALRIGHT! WHERE IS SHE?!"
A sound then came from behind the house. It was Duo with Deathscythe. As the gundam rounded in, all the people who were on Violet's father's side started screaming and running around.
"SIR!! GET OUT OF HERE! THAT THING WILL TRY TO KILL YOU!" one of then screamed.
But Violet's father wouldn't budge. He just stood there. He knew he was going to die. And he didn't care.
Duo raised his scythe and killed Violet's father,plus all the men who were at his side. Trowa couldn't stand looking at the blood. So he fainted.
"Well that was great,huh Trowa?"asked Duo.
But Trowa didn't speak. He was on the ground,lying unconcious.
"Oh my god! Trowa!"he bent down and picked Trowa up and slowly walked into the house.
"Huh? Where am I?"Trowa asked when he finally got up a few hours later.
"You're in bed,"it was Quatre. "You fainted right after Duo killed Violet's father and the people he brought with him."
"Right. Did Violet see it?"
"No. Thank god not."
"Good. How is she?"
"She's doing fine. At least because I'm her father now. Well,at least I hope so."
"That's very funny Quatre. I just hope she never finds out that you really aren't her father and that her father got killed by the God of Death."
"I know Trowa. I know. And she won't find out."
"But how? I mean,it's going to come out sometime in the future."
"We can prevent this Trowa. Remember how you told me how to worry so much about her?"
"Yeah."
"Well,I think you should do that now. She won't find out. Especially since we don't who her mother is."
He smiled. "Yeah,I guess you're right. Look,I want to tell you something."
"Yes?"
"Oh...nevermind. It can wait until later."
"Alright. But what's ever on your mind,please tell me."
"Sure Quatre."
"Well,I'll let you rest up a bit. You can come down when you want Trowa."
"That's fine."
"Alright then. I'll c-ya later Trowa,"he opened the door,and left the room.
"Hey Quatre,"said Duo as Quatre came down the stairs. "How's Trowa doin'?"
"He's going fine Duo."
"He's not sick or hurt is he?"
"He's going to be just fine."
He smiled. "Alright. Tell me what you're hiding."
"Nothing. Absolutely nothing Duo."
"Ok. But if there is something wrong don't forget to tell us,alright?"
"I know Duo."
He's feverish,he thought. He wouldn't be acting like this if he wasn't. "Hey Quatre?"
"Yes Duo?"
"Come here. I wanna feel your forehead."
"Alright." He went over to Duo,and waited while Duo felt his forehead. "Well?"he said after Duo took his hand of Quatre's head.
"You're not only hot man,but you're burning. I think you should get to bed. I'll tell Heero to make you so tea."
"But what about Violet?"
"Don't worry about it. Trowa'll be up and ready anytime. And trust me: I would never left Wufei touch that baby."
He laughed. "Yeah,I see your point,"but his laughter was covered by something else. It was Heero. Singing to Violet!

The next morning was very cold. The snow was falling and no wanted to leave the house. The bad thing was that Quatre's fever was getting worse. So the gundam pilots had to switch back and forth from Quatre to Violet. And the bad thing was that if Wufei got anywhere from 5-4 inches of her,she would not shut up!
"That kid is just...so god damn picky!"said Wufei. "I can't take this anymore. I'm leaving!"but before he got to the door,Duo grabbed his collar and stopped him. "Look buddy. I don't have time for this shit. We're supposed to be helping Quatre out here. I don't care if that baby likes you or not. We are all here to help Quatre. Got that?!" He let go of Wufei and stared at him.
"Fine. I'll stay. But only because I didn't want you to kill me."
Duo smiled. "Now that's more like it."
"I wish I knew what Heero was saying,"said Quatre as he talked to Duo about when they heard Heero singing to Violet last night.
"Actually,I found the American words to it. I have it on a piece of paper. But don't show it to anyone else,alright?"
"I promise I won't Duo."
"Ok,here it is."
Darkness in memory gently shut, seeking a destination in an aimless yesterday
I could see those delusions --- with wings giving way, I'm getting hurt.
People always lose the opportunity to go back to another time and place.
And just why do I, for the sake of a cause, lose control?
The wind is whirling, I feel that peace--- only if you smile.
The distinction of the seasons, loneliness from wrath, shadow from light --- they won't matter anymore tomorrow.
Just sitting here, messages around --- for me there's only your footsteps dissolving in the night.
This pulse is striking this innocence, shaking the sleeping earth --- getting in this place in my heart.
I'm so overwhelmed with dreams --- and they're still a long way off.
And just why do I, for the sake of someone, lose control?
The blowing wind won't break me down --- only if you smile.
From both pleasure and numbness in the cramped now, get out... and on to tomorrow.

"Wow. That's beautiful,"said Quatre after he read the words. "I can't believe this Heero would sing something like this."
"Yeah,I know,"said Duo.
"I never knew he could sing. But it sure is pretty."
"Yeah,I know. Well buddy,I have to go and help the other guys."
"Alright. I'll c-ya later Duo."
"Ok. C-ya Quatre,"and he left the room.
"Hey Duo,"said Trowa. "How's Quatre doing?"
"Fine Trowa. I think he'll be up and out of bed soon. Probably in about a day."
"That's good."
"Yeah. Then we wouldn't have to listen to Violet scream because Wufei's tryin' to scare her.
"HEY! I HEARD THAT DUO!"screamed Wufei from the other room. Duo couldn't help but let out a slight giggle.
"Hey guys,"it was Quatre,already up and on his feat!
"Quatre,what are you doing out of bed?!"asked Trowa.
"I feel fine Trowa."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah. Feel my head,"so he did. Suprisingly,it was fine!
"My god. I guess that medicine really helped."
"Don't worry about it,"said Heero. "I'm the one who sent for him,not you."
"But I thought Trowa sent for him,"said Quatre.
"Actually,I sent for Heero,and Heero thought it would be a good idea to bring Wufei along,"said Trowa.
"Which didn't turn out to be such a great idea!"said Duo. "Thank god you're up!"said Wufei.
"I've had enough with that child! She doesn't like me and I don't like her! I WILL NEVER LIKE WOMEN! Just get her away from me!"
He shoved Violet to Quatre and left. "And I guess he was right,"said Duo.
"And I'll have to agree with him,"said Heero.
"Well,its not the first time."
"Just be happy it was something we didn't agree on,"he whispered. "Or I probably would've killed you."
He shook his head. "Why does it always have to be me?!"
Trowa put his hand on Duo's shoulder, "Hey. Just be glad he didn't kill you."
"That's because he can't!"
Trowa but his hand over Duo's mouth.
"What was that?!"Heero asked,bewildered.
"Umm,huh,nothing Heero."
He walked over to Duo. Trowa put his hand away from Duo's mouth. "If you say something like that again,you might get it,"and walked away.
The day finally came. Violet's father was at Quatre's colony. Ready to kill anyone who had Violet with them.
"He's about a mile away,"said Heero. "You guys better get ready."
