So I feel incredibly stupid. I posted the wrong chapter as two. That
was, in reality, chapter three. So here's the real chapter two.

Heero's head was ringing when he finally came to. The next thing he
felt was cold. He was on the floor. What had happened? Had he passed
out? He sat up slowing, realizing that he was no longer in the room
that he and Duo shared, but in some sort of... castle? "What the
hell?"
"Heeeeeeeeeeeerrooooooooooo! You're finally awake!"
Fear coursed through Heero's veins like ice water. "Relena?"
"Oh, Heero, I know it must have been awful for you, but its all better
now! You'll never have to put up with Duo again!"
"What?" That was not an entirely wonderful prospect.
Relena laughed, sounding more like a witch cackling than anything
else. "I heard what you said to Duo. I heard that you'd rather be with
me instead of him. So when he wished for me to talk you away, well of
course I scooped you right up. We'll be together forever!"
The walls seemed to close in on him, and it left Heero with a nearly
animalistic need to claw his way out of where ever he was, but Relena
had other plans. "Heero, in eleven and a half hours, we're going to be
married. To celebrate, I had a poet write a song for us. Let me sing
it to you."
She gestured to a diminutive blonde man in the corner of the room.
Using her authoritive voice, (that always kinda bordered on whiney in
Heero's ears) she called, "Laureate Ziggy Stardust!"
The man strolled to her slowly, his hand clenching a slip of paper.
Bowing slightly in front of her, he raised an eyebrow, "Your majesty,
is it an entirely good idea to, erm, sing?" (1)
Relena snatched the paper from him in frustration. "Look, Laureate
Stardust, you write, I sing to my Heero." She cleared her throat and
warbled out what was probably once a very pretty song.
You, you will be king
And I, I will be queen
Though nothing will drive them away
We can beat them, just for one day
We can be Heroes, just for one day
And you, you can be mean
And I, I'll drink all the time
'Cause we're lovers, and that is a fact
Yes we're lovers, and that is that
Though nothing, will keep us together
We could steal time, just for one day
We can be Heroes, for ever and ever
What d'you say
Heero wanted to scream that he'd say no, and he'd say it pretty
fucking loud, but he figured it wouldn't be wise at this juncture.
Instead, he silently wished for the chance to self destruct.
I, I can remember (I remember)
Standing, by the wall (by the wall)
And the guns shot above our heads (over our heads) (2)
Yeah, Heero remembered the party night at the school, one of the first
times he met Relena. All the sudden he wished that the wall had fallen
on Relena. He'd be short one headache right then.
And we kissed, as though nothing could fall (nothing could fall)
'We most certainly did not!' Heero thought indignantly.
And the shame was on the other side
Oh we can beat them, for ever and ever
Then we could be Heroes, just for one day
When it was all over, Heero gingerly put his fingers to his ears. He
had to check for bleeding, because that was awful. Looking around the
room, he saw hundreds of goblins watching his every move. There was no
escape.
O.O
(1.) Yes, Virginia, it is David Bowie.
2.) This movie made me into the David Bowie fan I am today, and trust
me, I felt hella guilty for making Relena into Jareth, but it worked.
So to make up for it, I injected this song to smooth things over... I
felt it fit, really. PS, I played with the lyrics, sorry.
