New chapter in only a few days!

GundamGrl01: Yeah, it would be funny to see Duo's reaction to Heero's forked tongue, but that will come up later. Let's just say it's a clash of cultures. As for what Heero is, that should happen in the next few chapters.

Chapter Eight

Duo's head shot up, "Heero!" He and the others leapt out of their chairs and ran for the door. They stopped short at the sight that met their eyes. Trowa's eyes opened wide, Quatre was gapping, and Duo let out several loud curses. Basically their collective reaction was "WTF?!" (1) (lookie phoenix! i'm now including it in my writing, you're a bad influence! lol) Note that Wufei was unaffected by what lay before them.

And what exactly lay before them? Quite the sight I'd say. If you recall correctly, Heero was wearing a sleeveless white frosted blue turtleneck, not so much any more. Heero was crumpled on the floor of the hallway, shudders wracking his body. The spells he had preformed on himself were wavering due to his rapidly shifting magic levels. Translation: his eyes are a slivery blue, his hair is going from short and brown, to long and black, his collar is there one second gone the next, his claws and fangs were fully grown again, his ears pointed, and his tail regrowing. But none of this was what had him on the floor, screaming in pain.

As previously stated, his shirt was shredded in the back, and there were two bulges just inside his shoulder blades. These bulges seemed to be the cause of his pain. The skin over them was stretched thin and brittle looking. Know what a broken bone looks like? One that hasn't broken through the skin, but is pushing against it? Yeah that's what it looks like.

Wufei stepped forward, avoiding Heero's furiously lashing tail, and knelt by his back. The others could do nothing but stare. The young dragon placed a gentle hand on the back of Heero's neck. "Ssshh, we're going to pick you up, and take you back to your room." Looking up, he waved the other three closer. "Trowa pick up his legs, Duo hold his tail in place, just make sure you don't tug on it, Quatre clear the way. I'm going to carry his front."

Trowa leaned over and made to pick up the fevered pilot, but stopped when Wufei held up his hand. "Duo, get hold of his tail first."

Said pilot was in a state of shock. "H-his....t-tail?...Tail?!"

"Yes, his tail. Take hold of the base with a firm grip." So saying he demonstrated. (licks lips wufei taking a firm hold of heero.... drools yes, I know I have a dirty mind. i'm a yaoi fangirl, what do you expect? prudeness?) Heero jerked and let out a ragged growl. Wufei spoke in a low voice, "Na-tyh vaken, qojs nylah." (2) He continued on in this manner for a few more minutes, and slowly Heero calmed almost completely.

Taking the braided teen's hand, Wufei placed Duo's hand on Heero's tail, and wrapped the length of it around Duo's arm. "Be careful not to tug on it. Alright Trowa, let's go." Slowly they lifted Heero up and carried him to his room in relative silence; only Heero's ragged breathing breaking the silence. Luckily they met no one during their journey.

End chap

Another cliffhanger. What can I say? I like them. shrugs

1) WTF?! What the fuck. Something I learned from my friend Pheonix, it's a bit of a favorite of ours now.

2) A language I made up. I'll eventually translate some for you, but not yet.
