Chapter Fourteen

Heero sat on his bed with all his friends, with the exception of Duo, around him. Quatre and Trowa were on either side of him, with Wufei and Treize across from him. Duo was at his house, refusing to speak with anyone. He blamed the Japanese youth for the verdict, saying he promised it would be different. Quatre had scolded him endlessly for promising something he had no control over. However, everyone, like Heero, thought it would be guilty, like he had promised. With Duo's testimony, they wondered how it could not have been.

"Okay, so, explain to me again how they came to the conclusion if was a hung jury," Treize said.

Heero sighed. "Well, at first they came back with a guilty verdict, so everyone was really happy about then, with the exception of the defense. Mr. Bennett asked the judge to poll the jury, so she did. It turns out that two of them thought they were innocent, so she declared it to be a hung jury," he explained, shaking his head. "They were released, since there was no point in keeping them, as Mr. Bennett stated. They go in next week to determine a new court date."

Quatre shook his head. "How could anyone think they were innocent after Duo testified?" he asked.

Wufei shrugged. "All Mr. Bennett had to do was provide reasonable doubt. Once he brought up the fact that Mrs. Fisher told Heero about everything before he started helping Duo, he provided it."

"Shouldn't his emotional outburst have countered acted that?" Quatre asked. "I mean, clearly, with the way he acted, that should have proved that he wasn't lying."

"Thus is the fault of the justice system," Trowa commented.

Heero shook his head. "It doesn't matter. Duo's mad at me because I promised they'd return a guilty verdict, and I know somehow he sees this as being his fault."

"Have you tried talking to him?" Treize asked.

Heero nodded. "I call, but Father Maxwell either says that Duo's not in the mood to talk or that he locked himself up in his room."

Trowa shrugged. "There isn't a lot you can do. Just give him some time to calm down before you try to talk to him."

Heero nodded again. "I know, but I can't help but feel like I let him down."

"To him, you did," Quatre stated, "you never should have promised that they would return a guilty verdict when you had no control over that decision."

"I know, Quatre, but what could I tell him? 'Sorry, Duo, but I can't promise you that' really would have went over well with him. He needed the reassurance that he helped and I gave him that. Just because the jurors were bakas doesn't mean he should have to be penalized for their stupidity," Heero replied.

Wufei sighed. "There's nothing you can do, Heero. You'll just have to hope this next set of jurors have brains in their heads."

Heero nodded. The group lapsed back into silence, each of them were reflecting how the past few weeks have gone. The melancholy quiet was broken when the phone in Heero's room went off. Going around the petite blonde, the Japanese youth went and answered it. "Moshi, moshi, Yuy residents, Heero speaking," he said. There was quick mumbling from the other end and something flickered in the Japanese teen's eyes. "Alright, Duo, I'll be right over!" he said, hanging up the phone. "We have to go," he said to his friends before racing from the room.

Three cars pulled up to the driveway of Father Maxwell's. Heero just put his car in park before getting out to look for Duo. Police were everywhere, as were EMTs. Bodies were removed in body bags, piled into the ambulance before taken to the morgue. Heero felt his stomach lurch and heard Quatre gasping behind him. Running up to the yellow crime scene tape, he was stopped by one of the officers.

"I'm sorry, sir, but you have to stay behind the tape," he stated in a stern voice.

"But I have to find Duo!" Heero nearly shouted.

The officer eyed him skeptically. "Are you Heero Yuy?"

"Yes, I am," Heero said, pulling out his wallet and showing the man his drivers license.

Nodding, the officer lifted the tape. "He's over there," he stated, point to another ambulance where Duo was sitting, being checked over by the EMTs. "However, your friends must wait."

Sighing, Heero turned to his friends, who nodded for him to go. Ducking under the bright yellow tape, heran towards Duo. The braided boy was sitting on the steal floor, having the wound on his arm cleaned and dressed. He was soaked in blood and looked like he had been crying for a while. Heero did not like it. He did not like seeing Duo cry, to know he was in that kind of pain.

Sitting down next to Duo, Heero reached out, wrapping his arms around him. The smaller brunette looked up at him with watery violet eyes before burying his head into Heero's chest, crying again. Sighing, the Japanese teen ran his fingers through Duo's blood soaked hair, pulling them away and repeating the action, getting more blood on his hand with each pass.

Another officer walked up to the pair and cleared his throat. "Duo, we need to take your statement."

Duo shook his head, trying to disappear into Heero's chest. "Duo, you have to tell him what happened," Heero whispered softly.

Duo pulled away slightly, looking up at him, then nodded. "I decided to go out for a walk, and when I left, Father Maxwell and Sister Helen were still alive. But when I got home, I knew something was wrong because I didn't smell anything cooking. At first I figured they decided to wait until I got home to start dinner, but I was wrong. So completely wrong.

"I found them in the living room. Father Maxwell was already dead, someone had cut his throat. But Sister Helen.... she was still alive. I went to help her but there was nothing I could do. She was warning me to get out of the house but I didn't listen!" Duo exclaimed, the tears falling him his eyes. "H-he was in the house!"

"Who was?" Heero asked.

"M-my father. He killed them both and tried to kill me. He was drunk so he couldn't walk all that well, so I ran for the door, but somehow he got me. He grabbed me by my braid, and dragged meback towards the middle of the house where Father Maxwell and Sister Helen were. She begged him not to harm me, and when she wouldn't stop, he killed her. He killed her right in front of me!

"I screamed at him, called him a bastard. He didn't like that and came after me. I don't quiet know how it happened, but I managed to trip him, I don't know with what or how, but I did. He fell onto the knife he was holding, the blade going right into his chest. That's when I called nine-one-one," Duo explained.

The officer nodded, writing everything down in his little notepad. "Alright, is there a number where we can reach you?"

"You can reach him at my place," Heero said, giving the officer his number.

Nodding, the officer tipped his hat. "Alright, you can go now. We'll contact you when we need you to sign a statement." Nodding, Heero wrapped a blanket the EMTs offered him around Duo and lead him away. The brunette took on last glance at the house before getting in Heero's car and allowing him to take away.
