Chapter
1: "Chilling Memories"
"
I couldn't help you...Why did you have to go away?!" The boy sat
on the cold, hard ground crying. "Come child. We're taking you
with us." A fireman stood over him.
"NO! I won't go!! Not until you find my sister!!"
"I'm sorry...but your sister is...dead."
"NO!!!
She isn't!" he stood up and started running. "Sis...RAVEN-!!"
The picture fades along with the boy's voice.
"RAVEN!!"
Duo jerked up, sweating like crazy. He put his hand to his forehead,
running it along the top of his head. Duo looked at the clock. It
said two fifty-eight. "It was...just a dream..." Duo looked at
the wall, and then fell back. "But it felt so real. I can still
feel that same cold air. I can still see her face...all those
flashing lights..."
There
was a knock at the door. "Duo? You okay in there?" Heero
stepped into the room. "I could here you crying out. You were
talking in your sleep again." Heero paused for a few seconds.
"You were dreaming about her again...weren't you?" Heero
seemed to have some sad expression in his words. That was very unlike
Heero.
Duo nodded. "Y-yes...I can't stop! I want to forget everything that ever happened! But I can't! I just can't..." Duo's voice trailed off. A single tear fell down onto the black sheets.
"Sometimes it's hard to let go of the past...but you need to hold onto the good memories to get through life." Heero sounded a little sad. "That's what I had to do..."
Duo nodded again. "Thanks Heero. That helps me a lot." He gave a weak smile. " I guess I should hold onto the good ones."
"Just remember duo...if you have anything on your mind...you can talk to me, or the others. Except for Wufei. He might try to bit your head off." Heero actually smiled.
"Ain't that the truth..." Duo laid back down.
"You should get some more sleep. So go back to bed." Heero walked out the room, closing the door behind him. Duo cut the light back off. Then looked at the ceiling.
"I'll
never forget you raven..."
In
the morning everyone was in the kitchen, except for Duo. Heero was
sitting down reading the paper. Wufei was drinking a cup of coffee.
"What ever happened to Maxwell? He hasn't come running down the
stairs yet." Wufei poured another cup.
Quatre was reading a book. "He hasn't screamed "PANCAKES" at the top of his lungs yet either."
"He had a ruff night." Heero looked up over his paper.
"Was he dreaming about..." quatre's voice trailed off as duo walked into the kitchen.
"Mornin' guys." He walked past trowa, who was flipping the pancakes.
"Thank god you're making them this morning. Wufei sucks at making any kind of food." Duo sat down at the table. "They taste a lot like pancakes when trowa makes em'. Cause' when Wufei makes them...they taste like crap." Duo had a hint of mischief in his voice.
"Oh that does it Maxwell!...TAKE IT BACK!!?" Wufei shouted.
"Here we go again." Trowa was sitting a huge stack of pancakes on the table.
"Why
does duo always have to go and start something? Answer me that.
That's all I would like to know." Quatre sounded a little
agitated.
"Who knows... Maybe it's just his nature."
Trowa sat down.
"Okay. You two! Please take it outside!!" Doctor J stood in the doorway. Duo and Wufei just stared at him. "Anytime today would be nice!"
"Party pooper. Come on ass." Duo pulled at Wufei. "DON'T TOUCH ME BAKA ONNA!!!" Wufei smacked duo in the face. A few minutes later, loud noises came from outside.
"Did you boys hear something?" Doctor J took a sip of coffee. "By the way. I put a small add in the paper for a new mechanic. I hope that someone will answer it."
"Now why would you do that?" Quatre looked at doctor J curiously.
"Because, what if you were to go into battle? You would be tired, and not feel like fixing your mobile suits. So we will have a mechanic to fix them for you guys."
"O-H." They said in unison. There was a loud crash from out side.
"YOU ASS HOLE!! I THINK YOU BROKE MY WRIST!!!" Wufei shouted.
"OH YEAH? WELL YOU TRIED TO CUT OFF MY BRAID!!" duo shouted back.
"OH YEAH?"
"YEAH!!" That's all they did.
"I'll go get the bandages..." Heero stood up, and walked out the room.
"They really need to learn about compromising." Quatre picked up the paper.
"They'll never be able to compromise, Quatre. That's just like saying you'll never-" Trowa was cut off.
"AH! FUCK!!" Quatre shouted at the top of his lungs. Doctor J looked at Trowa.
"I'm sorry, but were you going to say quatre was never going to cuss?"
"Well...um...no.
No I wasn't going to say that."
Later
that evening, Duo walked along the river's edge. He looked into the
river with sad eyes. You know what he was thinking about. Or should I
say whom he was thinking about. He still had this feeling like...like
she was still alive. But how could he find her? "I feel so
lost." Duo sat down on the railing by the water's edge. "I
remember when we first played in the pond. I wish that would have
lasted forever." He paused for a few minutes. "I still
remember...the flower she gave me...I'll never forget." He sat
there alone for a good while. A little while after that, he heard a
crash. It sounded like some trashcans were falling over. Duo looked
back in the direction from which the noise had come. He saw
trash...but that was about it. Then he saw something move. "Is
that a hand?" Duo looked closely. There was a dark shadow
hanging over the passageway. Out of nowhere, someone was running
towards him.
"I
have to get out of this place, fast!" It was a young girl. She
wasn't looking where she was going, and well...stupid duo got up, and
was right in front of her. That's why he's the braided baka to this
day. That's when, CRASH!, she ran smack into duo.
"Hey!! Watch where you stand next time you moron!!" The girl was pissed off now. "Sorry." That's all duo could say. "Ouchy...that hurt...I'm going to be feeling that one in the morning..." she was rubbing her butt.
Duo reached out a hand to help her up. But she swatted it away, picking her- self up off the ground. "Are you okay?" Duo looked at her in a worried way.
"Yeah. I'm fine." She said looking up at him. Duo looked back and was thinking, hello there beautiful!!
"What!? Why are you looking at me like that!?" She demanded. "Hello in there!! Can you hear me?!"
"Yeah. Sorry." Duo was getting lost. He noticed a shocking resemblance between him-self and her. Her hair was just the same. Chestnut brown. But it was a tiny bit darker, and she had blood red bangs. Her eyes were a light cobalt blue. She was about four inches shorter than duo also. "You look so familiar." Duo said, dazed.
"Excuse me?" she asked, in a curious, but plain voice.
"Sorry. You...you just remind me of someone I knew." Duo looked down at the ground.
Some figure's appeared on the horizon. "There she is!" You could barely make out the words.
"Shit...Oh.
Well bye!" The girl ran off. "Wait!!!...I forgot...to ask
your name." Duo looked at her as she ran off towards the
sunset.
well.a little shorter that I wanted it to
be. But oh well. There you go people. Chapter 1. Please R&R!!!!!!!!
