The five boys finally all awoke. Duo had been just as shocked as Heero when he woke to find Heero with his wing covering him. The two silently went got up and in silent agreement didn't mention to the others in the kitchen why they were together, of course the others already knew they had been out there asleep. Wufei came out of his room a little while afterward, and joined them at the table.

"Now that we know with out a doubt that Milliardo is . . . evil what are we going to do about it?" Wufei was the first to speak.

The others sat there silently, each contemplating their own thoughts on the matter. After a while Quatre spoke up.

"We have to do something. Wufei, you and Heero can both get back into heaven maybe the two of you can somehow get word to others."

"But who would believe us." Heero pointed out.

"What we need is some way to prove Milliardo is up to no good. Someway to trap him."

"How do we do that? We weren't prepared the first time that we encountered him, we weren't prepared for his last appearance, we have no idea when he'll show up next so how do we trap him?"

"We lure him in." Duo stated. "We need to make him think that he can corner us or something and get him to come after us."

"No one in heaven would care if he attacked a couple of vampires. They wouldn't believe he was doing evil."

"Then trick him into attacking either you or Heero, then that would be enough to at least create some doubt." Duo leaned forward on the table.

"And how do we pull that off? He'll be on guard now; he knows we're out to get him." Wufei tossed the argument out.

"You can ask him to meet you somewhere, somewhere neutral that hasn't been involved in any of this yet, so not the club, not the apartment, and not the church. You can tell him you don't believe us or something. Then once he's there you call Heero and we'll show up with a camcorder or something."

"Why me?" Wufei narrowed his eyes at the suggestion of being bait.

"You aren't as committed to this as Heero, Heero knows Quatre they have a bond, why would he doubt Quatre, and why would either me or Trowa go? And do even think of sending Quatre is ridiculous." Duo gave Wufei a look that said did you really need to hear that.

"Point?" Was all Wufei muttered. "But there needs to be something to attract him too it, something worth the risk, I say you come with me, and pretend to be a hostage or something."

"Interesting. That would make him want to come because that would mean he had one ally, and an enemy out of the way. He might be willing to come for that, and I say we rig the church so if he comes back here at all we can get something to convince others."

Trowa and Quatre were stunned by the converstation taking place. Heero did not look please, he didn't like the idea of using Duo as bait, Wufei he knew could take care of himself, but Duo was an emotional rollercoaster that could derail at any moment, but he stayed silent for he had no better plan at the moment.

They threw out a few more ideas but finally settle on the original being the best plan of action. Having agreed on a plan of action they set to work figuring out the details and rigging the church with cameras that Heero and Trowa had gone out and gotten. It was tedious work, they had to have the cameras in prime locations and have them blend in. It wasn't too hard to blend them in the front of the church seeing as most of it was black from the fire that had swept through it.

"Heero?" Duo leaned over Heero's shoulder as he work on attaching a recorder to the front pew.

"Yes?"

"About last night." Duo paused.

"Yes Duo?"

"I'm sorry I broke down on you like that. It was just rough being here and then the whole thing with Milliardo and talking about when I fought him. It all reminded me of that day."

"Duo don't apologize, you never did anything wrong. You weren't . . . emotionally… ready to coop with what was happening you let your emotions take over and … and it was painful."

"You're nicer then you come off Heero."

"What?" Heero stiffened and looked at Duo confused.

"You give others the impression that you're a robot or something, but you're really a softy on the inside." Duo smiled and took a seat next to the angel. "It was really nice of you to stay with me last night and this morning. You really didn't have to do that, but you did and it was really nice."

Heero continued to look confused at what Duo said. Duo gave him a quick hug which shocked him and then skirted off to help Quatre in the kitchen.

"Well Yuy it seems you have made a friend." Wufei smirked earning a glare from the other boy.

"Shut up." Heero grumbled and turned back to his work.

Duo's had surprised him, sure Quatre was always babbling something like that but he was an angel and an empath, Duo was this vampire he had met yesterday. It seemed weird for someone to be so friendly to him. Though if one was to think about last night he had been just as friendly if not more so, so technically it was his own fault if anyone was to blame. Not that there was something wrong with it. Heero shook his head and then muttering under his breath returned to his work.

Meanwhile in the kitchen Quatre was making the proper arrangements. Trowa was in the hallway that the bedrooms.

"Hey Q." Duo picked up a small camera and toyed with it.

"Is something the matter?" Quatre raised an eyebrow.

"Why do ask?" Duo sat down.

"Empathy, remember?"

"Oh that's right." Duo smiled at him. "Nothings really wrong, it's just confused."

Quatre waited. "Go on."

"I think…. I mean I like your friend Heero, a lot."

Quarte laughed.

"What's so funny?"

"Emp-"

"Empathy, yah yah I know. You take the fun out of secrets you know that right."

"Yes. So what's so confusing you seem to know what you feel?"

"How did you and Trowa know to tell each other how you felt?"

"Duo do I have to say it again?"

"Quatre, come on there had to be some doubt even if you are an empath."

"There's always doubt, but sometimes there's enough that you just feel safe enough to move forward."

"Could you just tell me what Heero feels?" Duo smirked.

"You know I can't do that, it's not fair to Heero. Just think about it Duo you're the one who spent the night curled up on the floor with him, what do you think?"

"Hey."

"Me and Trowa debated on waking you up, it's no big deal."

"What is that suppose to mean he likes me like that, just because I put him in a bad spot and he was nice to me?"

"No it doesn't mean that it could just mean that you did put in an uncomfortable position and he didn't want to leave you like that, it could mean he would like you as a friend, or it could mean he would like you as more I can't tell you the answer, hence why I asked what do you think? It's up to you Duo. Either say something or don't." Quatre gave Duo a stern look before returning his attention to his work.

Duo began setting up cameras and records or the other side of the room and thought about what he had just been told.

Quatre tried hard not to laugh. Duo had layers to him, he worn this protective one to keep him safe, but every once and a while he didn't pay attention and it slipped, directly underneath that layer was a layer of raw and uncontrollable emotions. He knew vaguely how both felt, but he didn't want to play matchmaker they were both to confused for that, and now they had bigger problems on their hands like a very evil and very angry angel who would prefer nothing more then to wipe them all off the face of the planet at the moment. So Quatre settled with quietly doing his work and watching Duo out of the corner of his eye.

All I have to say is homework is evil, art teachers for the most part suck, and it's definitely 1:30 in the morning and I'm past the I'm tired so let me sleep stage and into the I'm exhausted but wouldn't be able to get to sleep if my life depended on it stage. Anyway I hope you enjoy the latest installment. Please review it means a lot to me I don't need a whole long thing, but the more you write the better, though I would appreciate just a it's good, or it's bad. Thank you very much.

P.S. I'm sorry for any grammatical errors, or if there are more then usually, I'm kind of to disoriented right now to read through it all.
