Chapter 2~ Rules of the Land
Mission 4~ Train with new Artillery
After the little 'fire' incident in the street, the boys made their way back to the club at a rather rapid pace. By the time the two found themselves in the room that they shared, they were completely out of breath. Heero was panting, lying on his unmade bed, Duo beside him. Chests rose and fell at an increasingly slower rate as the two just lay. Finally, someone spoke.
"Alright Duo, explain." Heero panted. He felt his new friend chuckle beside him.
"Well, I did mention the powers. You see, powers are your sentence. They are chosen for you in relation to what caused your death. Now, let's say that you died because you got shot after catching your girlfriend cheating on you. Well, your main emotion at death would be rage. Fire represents rage so that's your power. Get it?" Duo said, getting up and laying on his own bed. Heero nodded, sitting up and hanging his legs over the side of the bed.
"Yeah, but why did I."
"Explode?"
" Yeah."
"Too much of the emotion your power represents causes your power to increase. If you have no control over your power, like you did, it just goes on autopilot. That's pretty much it."
"How did you die, Duo?" Heero said, watching his friend. Duo's face seemed to dim for a few seconds. He didn't look like the bright and happy Duo Heero was getting to know. He looked.distant. It only lasted a few seconds, though. He laughed happily and closed his eyes, remembering.
"Let's just say I didn't have the friendliest family. They were all bloodthirsty bastards. They sold me to an enemy, in exchange for peace for their land, enough said." Duo said.
Duo shot Heero a smile and hopped off the bed. He stretched and walked towards Heero's bed.
"Well, I think we should get you in control of your powers. Come on, we'll use one of the rooms for rent in the back of the club. There shouldn't be anyone there right now, it' too early." Duo began to walk away, waiting for Heero to follow. When he didn't Duo turned around with a questioning look.
"What you waiting for, fire boy?" Duo said, leaning against the doorframe.
"What's B stand for?" Heero asked, rising. Duo chuckled.
"You ever heard of a vampire Heero?" Duo asked, casually touching Heero's neck. He grinned as Heero's eyes immediately darted to Duo's mouth, searching. Again Duo chuckled, moving closer to Heero, who didn't back away or flinch. The Vampire was right up against Heero's body. Hands moved to Heero's back and neck, holding him still, making escape impossible. Duo lowered his head so that his lips nearly touched Heero's neck. He could feel the blood pulsing right below the skin. It was pumping at a fast pace, Heero was frightened. Duo grinned into Heero's neck.
"It stands for Blood, Heero. You have no idea how good your blood smells. It would be so easy." Duo whispered, his tongue lightly dancing across Heero's skin, making him shiver. Heero felt Duo's fangs brush against his skin lightly. "Are you scared, Heero?" Duo whispered quietly. He was fairly amused when Heero shook his head. "May I then?" Duo asked. Heero was still for a while, thinking. Duo could sense the blood flow slowing, Heero, calming. It was true that Heero's blood smelled good. Duo was fighting a very hard battle, trying to control himself. After what seemed like an eternity, Heero slowly nodded. Duo almost screamed with joy. "Lay on the bed, it'll be easier." Duo manages to choke out, having trouble controlling himself now that he had permission.
Heero immediately did as he was told and laid on Duo's bed. I seemed like as soon as Heero's back hit the mattress, Duo was on top of him. The vampire looked very scary now. His eyes seemed to dimly glow red. Suddenly Duo's fangs were extremely obvious, and his skin, ghostly pale. He was panting; breathing like he had just ran a mile race. His hands were placed on either side of Heero's head, suddenly clawed. Heero's heart was beating fast. Duo gave Heero an evil grin before lowering his lips to Heero's neck. The vain there was pulsing, just waiting for him. Duo ran his tongue over the pulsing vein. There was a sharp pain was Duo's fangs sank into Heero's neck. A blast of power ran through the boys' bodies, causing Heero to gasp and Duo to sink his fangs deeper into Heero's neck. The power rushed though Heero, making his dizzy, but not unpleasantly so. The power was familiar in a way, something Heero could tell was purely Duo. It touched him like a lover would, gently and intimately. The only thing Heero could relate it too was when he had gotten drunk.
Heero was suddenly aware of everything Duo was feeling or thinking. More than once he found him looking at himself through Duo's eyes. He could feel not only Duo's body against his, but his body against Duo's. He felt Duo's own power rush mixing with his own, giving him an even more pleasurable experience. He was aware of Duo's mind, thinking thoughts of good tastes and a very good power rush. He could feel everything and anything the vampire felt, or even thought. Suddenly, the connection ended, and the power rush ended. Duo lifted his head, his eyes fading red and looking partly sedated. He licked his lips, collecting the blood that rolled down his chin. Heero, his eyes glazed over as well, looked at the vampire. Duo let out a sigh, a small flame accompanying the breath.
"Wow." Heero sighed, lying back down on the vampire's bed. Duo smiled lazily.
"No need to fear the vampire. I am very tired." Duo said, placing his head on Heero's shoulder.
"Yeah.me too." Heero yawned, relaxing.
" Hows about a little nap before we get to power controlling lessons, hmm?" Duo said, closing his eyes.
"Sounds good." Heero said softly. Both boys found themselves asleep before they could move onto their own beds. Duo didn't mind, this is what usually happened after he drank blood. Heero was ok with it for reasons he didn't know yet. As the two slept, the crystal hanging around Heero's neck stared to dimly glow.
*^*^^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^**^*^*^*^*^*^**^
Someone was moving, disturbing Duo's rest. Annoyed, the vampire opened one eye, searching for the cause. The cause was a young man with dark brown hair and a bleeding neck below him, tossing and turning. Or at least, attempting to toss and turn. It was very difficult for him to do so with a vampire about his weight on top of him. Both eyes open now, Duo watched his friends face. It twisted from worried, to horrified, to sad in a matter of seconds. Hypnotized by his victims open show of emotions, he continued to watch. Heero's face stayed sad, almost agonizingly so. A silent tear rolled down his face. Duo watched in amazement as it evaporated into air. He could feel the heat coming from Heero's body now. Turning his attention back to Heero's face, Duo saw it was changing emotions. The heat the still continued to build was enough for the vampire to guess what it was. Rather that get burned pretty badly, Duo attempted to wake his roommate.
"Heero." Duo said quietly, shaking his friend a little. Heero stirred for a few seconds but the heat was building still. Duo sat up and straddled his friend's hips, looking down on him. "Heero wake up." A little louder now, shaking a little more roughly. The tossing stopped and the heat waned. Colbat blue eyes revealed themselves to the world once more. Heero looked straight up at the vampire with a glare. A hand immediately went to his neck, where the wound was still bleeding. He grunted in an annoyed way.
"Get off. And take care of this." Heero growled, pointing at the wound on his neck. Duo semi-glared back. Duo wasn't good at glaring. The vampire was a very friendly person. He could look scary, even dangerous if he wanted to, but glaring just never worked for him. It made him look like an angry kitten, which wasn't too scary.
Sighing, Duo removed himself from Heero and leaned casually against the wall near his bed. Something clicked in Duo's mind.
"Don't order me around, fire boy. YOU'RE the one on MY bed. And getting it all bloody for that matter." Not the Duo minded. Didn't hurt to not to say the rest of that thought.
"Not that you'd mind blood sucker." Heero spat back, wiping his neck with his sleeve. Duo mentally kicked Heero for thinking of that. Now it was Heero 1, Duo 0. It was true that the bed was drenched in Heero's blood. One good thing about being dead.you'll never die of blood loss. The black comforter didn't hide the new stains as well as they hid the ones that had already dried. Once again, it wasn't like the vampire minded though. Duo's mind reeled for a comeback, some sort of unseen point. He found nothing.
"Yeah alright, you got me." Duo sighed. "Come over here, fire breath, and I'll clean up the wound." Duo said, turning to face the fire enchanted, annoying, always one step ahead, boy he called a roommate.
"Fire breath?" Heero chuckled. Duo shrugged, placing a hand on Heero's neck, willing the blood inside him to stop flowing out, willing it to heal the wound.
"You called me blood sucker." He took his hand away and the wound was closed, not even leaving a scare. Duo smiled. Forget vampire bite marks, those are for amateurs.
"But you ARE a blood sucker." Heero said. Damn, Heero 2, Duo.zip.
"That's beside the point. Now are we gonna train you to control you every so short temper or what?" Duo said, walking over to his dresser to pick out a new outfit. Wouldn't be good to go walking downstairs with blood soaking you chest and vest. Duo could hear Heero heading for the stairs. Time to get a point of his own.
"Hey Heero. You might now want to go downstairs with 'I just got bit by a vampire' plastered on your clothes." Duo mentioned, making sure his tone implied that it was very obvious and Heero was stupid for forgetting it. It worked as Heero muttered and walked over to Duo's dresser. Yes, Heero 2, Duo 1. At least it isn't a complete loss now. Heero reached waited beside Duo as the vampire went through his clothes.
Duo picked out a long black trench coat, a pair of snake skin leather pants and a fishnet shirt to wear. He put them on quickly, making his skin absorb the blood he was covered in. Another good thing about being a vampire, blood control. Heero had picked out a pair of cut off shorts and a long vest, no shirt. He looked a lot like Duo had just looked like. The vest showed off his toned chest very nicely, as well as his arms. Duo couldn't help but stare.
The room wasn't exactly what Heero had thought it would be. He imagined a private bar room with a dance floor and a private DJ or a jukebox. It wasn't anything like he had imagined. The main piece of furniture I the room was a king sized bed. That alone explained the use of 'private room'. The walls were red and there was a private bath in the room a well. The whole thing looked like a cheesy honeymoon sweet. The room was big enough for at least 4 elephants to fit inside comfortably. This is the only reason this room was desirable for training, space. The boys were sitting side-by side on the bed, one listening to the other explain.
"So, I've already told you that each power is connected to an emotion. You already know that fire is anger, so I don't need to explain that." Duo started.
"What's blood linked to?" Heero asked. Duo's face quickly changed again. It had done that also when Heero asked Duo how he died. But like before, it lasted only a second and then Duo was back to his smiling cheerful self.
"That's not important right now. Now listen and don't interrupt me, okay? Now, every emotion comes from a certain area of your body. When I bit you, I felt the heat of your fire around your heart. So if you ever want to use the fire, you need to pull it from your heart, and channel it where you want it to go. So let's try this first. Try and call enough fire out so that you can create a small flame in your hand. Oh and be careful, my clothes aren't fireproof, their stain proof." Duo said, smirking. Heero glared at him, but rose from the bed and did what Duo had said. It was easier than he had expected. By the time that the two of them had to get to work, Heero had mastered the use of his fire. Duo had better watch out if he pissed Heero of now.
