Ok I should probably let all the people who read this know the truth. Most of the stuff I put it is by my best friend KT who does NOT have the Internet. I will be posting my own stuff but I will let you know if it's my work or my friends. You probably will be able to tell the difference anyway.
Because I would care...
Chapter Three
"Turn every computer we have on. We need to look for any military activity that's taken place in the last twenty-four hours. I know that they would have made a scene by now."
04 sat down at his desk, pulling up a satellite pictures.
"Anything?"
"Nothing on any escapes. They haven't shown up anywhere."
Trowa sat back, lost on where to go from there. The next few moments were quiet except for the sound of keys typing. Suddenly it all came to a halt at 05's bellow.
"The Alliance raided two OZ compounds this afternoon. All were arrested, no casualties. Um... one was checked for prisoners... none were found. The other one will be searched tomorrow. That's it! Duo and Heero must be ready to kill each other."
"We'll have to steal a jeep to get out there."
"If they haven't killed each other already," 03 said heading out the door.
"So... so she just stood...there...and w...watched the tower fall?"
Duo still shook in Heero's steady hold.
"Yeah...and for the longest time I couldn't understand why I saved her. But now I think I know."
He shrugged a bit and looked down on Duo, who looked back weakly. Although his smile was still evident.
"It's love dude. Even...I...get weird about it."
Closing his eyes, he strained to gain some comfort. Heero tried to help, but 02 only shook his head.
"Don't bother. I can't feel anything below my chest. Hell...I had to piss an hour ago. F...for all I know, I could h...have gone."
He tried to laugh but only shivered. Heero placed a hand to his head realizing it was stone cold. Softly, Duo placed a hand on Heero's for reassurance.
"I'm not scared Yuy. This day was going to come sometime. I am not scared of anything. Not death, not this war..." but he only saw him shake his head.
"What about losing your friends? Your loved ones?"
To that question, he got no response. The moment became awkward and silent, until Duo's body began to tense.
"Maxwell stop. Relax."
"I'm not doing it. I can't feel it anyways."
"We have to get out of here. I can make an escape route and I'll get you help."
Slowly, he lowered 02's weak form to the floor.
"I'll be right back, I promise."
His voice was shaking as he spoke, and what was worse was that knew Duo heard it.
"I promise."
"Don't doubt it."
With one last reinforced look he made his way off to the door. From his back pocket, he pulled a close pin out and began to pick at the lock until finally it gave way. Glancing back he saw a very pale and stiff figure. Even his amethyst eyes were frosted over.
"If...you...don't go, I can't miss you."
Checking the hallway, Heero headed out not noticing 02's eyes close. He was too tired to care anymore. The stiffness in his arms and legs went away as the darkness consumed him.
He searched every corner and every room, not once running into any guards. The place was empty. It was good in a way, but horrible in another. No one could help him.
"Shit."
And another familiar sound filled the hall. Footsteps. With nothing to protect himself, he only had one option. Hit the bastard head on. Running down the hall, he took the corner at full speed, taking the figure around his neck and slamming him against the wall.
"Heero?"
"Quat? What the hell...?"
He released his grip on the youngest of their group and kept his suspicion.
"We got word that this base was evacuated six hours ago. Dumb alliance decided not to check the prisons here because the other had no one but soldiers. Honestly, I thought the two of you had already gotten out but even I can be...where is Duo?"
"No."
Not bothering to inhale again, he ran back in the direction he came. Quatre followed, pulling out his radio as he ran.
"L4 to L3 & L5. I have successfully found Shinigami and Zero. Report to base 04217-HM ASAP. Call in medical back up. We may need it."
Just as he turned his connection off, he turned into the cell right into Heero. 01's body had turned to stone in the doorway. Quatre moved around him to see what he was staring at. Now he was speechless.
"Is he...dead?"
Heero didn't answer. Instead he rushed back to his comrade's side. Picking up his limp wrist, he felt for a pulse. It was there, but barely. His breathing was as though he wasn't at all.
"He's having an allergic reaction to the anesthesia they injected. If we don't get him awake again, he'll die. He needs IV's and iron to move the drug out of his system."
"Trying to wake Duo up is harder than getting a cow down the stairs. Smack him...no wait. Let me. You'd probably be too rough and he doesn't need your dumb fight interfering while he's like this."
Leaning in front of him, he smacked the American across the face. Nothing happened.
"But Quat...We don't have time to hear your reasons now. Tell me later when he's okay."
This time he socked him across the face. At this Duo's face scrunched up meaning he had felt something.
"Duo wake up! Answer me!"
He yelled into his friend's ear. To this his eyes slit open, not meaning to stay that way.
"Oooops."
His voice was only a faint whisper. His eyes moved back to look at Heero.
"So...you...kept your promise."
Dryness from not talking over took him, causing him to cough. Now his breathing problem became highly aware to him. Now gasping for air he clinched his hand around Heero's wrist.
"Relax...if you relax you'll be able to catch your breathe."
"That won't help. His body has changed to a panicked state. He could go into shock if we don't steady him and get him air!"
But that wouldn't matter. Abruptly his grip loosened around his wrist. Duo had stopped breathing all together.
"Damn it! Where the hell are they?!"
He began to administer CPR. Quatre pulled out the radio once more.
"We need you now!"
"We're coming up the road. What the hell is going on there?"
Trowa waited for some response.
"Duo is having an allergic reaction to the anesthesia they injected into him and he's flat lined on us. We need medical attention or we'll lose him. Did you find anyone?"
He could hear the sound of the jeep switching to a higher gear.
"We met up with Sally and um...you'll see when we get there. I'm coming in twenty seconds."
True to his word, he arrived seconds later, Sally by his side. Not saying a word, she pulled out a bottle of iron and a syringe and began pumping the liquid into his blood. She then brought out a portable oxygen tank from another bag hooking him up to it immediately. To everyone's relief, Duo's chest began to move. He was alive again, for now.
"Let's get him to the alliance military hospital so he can be administered IV fluids. I'll give him this; He's really lucky."
Wufei helped Quatre pick Duo up and headed out to the car. Trowa stayed behind to speak with Heero.
"J's at the hospital. He says he needs to speak to you."
"I can't right now. Not until Duo wakes up."
"What do you care? Your missions complete."
Grabbing one of Sally's bags for her, Trowa left the cell refusing to make eye contact with him again Sally also left still not saying a word.
"So because I didn't kill myself after my failure, J decides he has to come and destroy me himself."
Thinking to himself, he ran to catch up.
'Well I refuse to die before I talk to Duo again. We still have unfinished business to settle.'
