The music feel apon the ears of the older teen , opening up memories as it passed by them. Chestnut bangs fell in violet eyes which where closed tightly in prayer,the tangy and stale taste of cheap table wine and communion still lingering on his tough. A long brown plait hung down his black clad back as his body rested on his dark boots.
Sister helen gathered the boy in her arms trying to make him stay, oh how strong her faith had been. If only she had knew what it would lead her to. The young boy in her arms struggled free running from her protective grasp and into the bloodbath on the streets outside.
"Duo Noo!" she cried her pale face soaked with tears.
The boy came back too late finding the safe place he once knew reduced to rubble and the closest thing to a mother he had lying bleeding to death in the jagged stones.
"Good Keep you safe " she whispered and died, as the child cried into her still warm corpse.
The teen bowed down slowly raising his fingers to his forehead ,then chest ,then left shoulder, then right.
"I'm sorry sister you were right" said the boy sitting back as the alter server walked past him with the cross.
He slowly stood up as the priest left the church and stood infront of the alter ...the names of two people engraved on the stone beneath.
Father M. Maxwell
Sister Helen maria.
The young boy held up the bowl of water letting the priest before him wash his hands.
"thank you Duo" Father maxwell whispered as he placed the towel back on the boy's arm.
Later as he walked out he could see the oz soldiers in the streets near the church but he ignored them.
"Bless me Father For I have sinned , It has been five years since my last confession" said the teen nervously through the screen of the confessional.
"what sins have you committed child" said a gentle voice from the other side.
"blasphemy, lust , greed, I stole , killed my enemies, and cursed many times, I can not think of them all Father" said the teen ashamed.
"You're a soldier am I right?" Said the Priest.
"Yes Father" Said the teen.
"I Listen to many people like you , you are already forgiven if you have asked " Said the Priest to the teen."For you penence Say six hail mary's and do somthing good for someone else."
Heero looked behind him as duo walked out from the church.
"Have fun"
Duo smiled
"Yes.."
