The five tired boys once again sat around the blackened table on which there laid a map of the city with various circled locations.

So it's been decided then we'll meet him in the common at midnight, if he agrees of course?" Wufei broke the silence that had overtaken them for the past few minutes.

"Be careful." Quatre fidgeted endlessly next to Trowa who looked at Duo so intensely at this moment Duo shifted awkwardly.

"Yeah." He whispered back.

"I'll go contact Millardo then." Wufei stood up. They had all agreed it would best if Wufei was near the church but not in the church when he contacted Millardo.

"Good luck." Duo turned to face Wufei the man he was trusting his life too.

Wufei simply nodded and went to the back door.

Sighing Duo smiled weakly in an attempt to lighten the mood, no one seemed really happy with this plan but there wasn't a whole lot they could do about it. No one had come up with a better idea, though Heero had added on to it. It had been decided that while Wufei was meeting Millardo with Duo, Heero would return to heaven and plead with Gabriel who was known sometimes for causing trouble, the innocent kind that no really cares about afterwards, though he would hardly be able to keep his nose out of trouble like this. That would be all the proof they need for Gabriel to hear Millardo's plan or at least part of it. Millardo wouldn't be able to tell Gabriel was there he was far beyond Millardo in rank and more powerful, Heero would then return to the church and wait with Quatre and Trowa for a signal that they were needed.

After a few more moments of weird silence Wufei reentered the church.

"So?" Heero asked immediately.

"He's agreed, but too easily I think." Wufei muttered.

"We're still going though right? This might be our only shot." Duo put in before anyone could shot the idea to bits.

"Yes, we have to or he'll know something was up for sure and that could be more problematic then not." Wufei sigh and sat back down. "Now we just wait."

"Never in a million years did I think anyone who challenge God so." Quatre played nervously with his tea.

"Again you mean." Heero hated the idea of it, where did Millardo get off thinking he could succeed where Lucifer failed, Lucifer who had been God's first and most beautiful.

"We should have fun." Duo sat up fully in his chair, "Let's do something fun."

Trowa raised an eyebrow and bit his lip when he saw Duo's expression. Duo feared tonight would go badly Trowa knew it.

"What do you want to do Duo?" Trowa asked smiling just slightly.

"I say we go to the club for a little while and dance." Duo smiled wide trying to be convincing.

Quatre caught on at this point, "I think that's a grand idea."

"Then it settled we're going." Duo hopped up and started to turn.

"Wait, shouldn't we go over this one more time make sure we're all really ready." Heero intejected.

"We know the plan Yuy." Wufei mumbled. "We know it so well it mind has well be implanted on our brains.

"It's just."

"Nothing, it's just nothing, and I could use a drink." Wufei stood and made to followed Duo.

Heero looked to Quatre and Trowa for some support but found they were also heading toward Duo. "Oh fine."

They enter the club around nine, plenty of time has far has Duo was concerned. He was determined to understand Heero better before he went with Wufei to Millardo which he will never admit scared him.
The right lights that had so set Wufei off before now went mostly unnoticed, he took in the scene once more with the new understanding he had it was true this place with filled with smiling faces that were genuinely happy not sadistic or evil. He felt slightly guilty for his earlier judgment of them all.

Heero wasn't certain about what to do, he was worried, scared even that tonight could be the end of Wufei and this the strange boy that was Duo, but he was also confused at how carefree Duo seemed was he so sure of things that he could be so relaxed.

Moments later a familiar melody filled the speakers has Duo recognized one of his favorite songs, a very short and sweetly sad song called Prelude 12/21 by A.F.I. Duo moved out onto the dance floor and began twirling around the way he was when Heero had watched him last night. Very quickly it ended and the louder and quicker Miss Murder followed it blending together perfectly. Heero gave up and followed Duo out onto the dance floor has he started to move faster.

Once Heero was close enough Duo grabbed onto him and began to dance with him using his movements to guide Heero who didn't seem sure about what to do.

"Trowa, darling, Wufei, my friend, I believe this is where we make ourselves scarce." Quatre slide his arm into both of the others arms and guided them away from their two friends.

The intensity slowly increased in their dancing, and Duo's body was singing has Heero came in contact him more and more, has he relaxed. Heero briefly wondered if they looked to others like Quatre and Trowa had looked to him last night. The thought made him happy and a little embarrassed. He had never been like this before not has a human, not has an angel. Then slowly it clicked inside him he really wanted Duo. Gently moving Duo back a little so they were more into a corner of the room Heero leaned down a little and gently kissed Duo.

Duo was shocked, pleasantly so, but none the less shocked. He let it happen more then willing to allow Heero the kiss. Then slowly Heero moved away from him.

"Duo. . .I" Heero flattered unsure of how to follow that.

"Anyone ever tell you that actions speak louder then words." Duo smiled and pulled Heero back to him.

They stayed there relatively hidden from the rest of the nightclub for a while dancing together breaking the fluid movements every once and a while with gently kisses.

Noticing the time they slowed down it was now eleven they only had an hour before Duo and Wufei went to meet Millardo.

"Duo... Trowa mention something earlier. He said something about how Vampires who drink the blood of vampires gain strength faster then by aging and drinking the blood of humans." Heero didn't look directly at Duo has he said it he was unsure of what Duo would think about his idea.

"Yeah, it depends a lot on the vampire and such, but that's the basic idea." Duo's brow furrowed he didn't know what Heero was getting at.

"I want you to drink my blood Duo." Heero whispered so softly Duo wasn't sure if he had heard right.

"What? Your blood."

"I want to help you tonight, but there's really not much I can do, but maybe my blood can help you, help keep you safe." Heero stared intently at the wall next to Duo.

"I... I don't know what that will do to you, what if you fall?" Duo sputtered out.

"Then I stay here with you."

Duo didn't know what to say he would love to have Heero stay here but to have him fall, it seemed unfair.

"I don't know Heero."

"Just, please, I want to do something." Heero finally looked back at Duo with the softest and most sincere eyes Duo had ever seen.

Leaning into Heero again Duo's mouth gently caressed the skin of his neck, all Heero felt was a slight pinch and then the moisture of his blood has it left his body.

Duo's eye focused out and gave in to the flow of Heero's memories images of Heero growing up swarmed Duo's mind followed by images of Heaven in all it's glory, faces and names and then one in peticular caught Duo's attention Gabriel the gorgeous blonde with huge wings that basked in Heaven's golden light and a slightly devilish smile that Duo himself was know for wearing several times. Then It hit him and he pushed back from Heero fast.

"Heero!"

"What? What's wrong?"

"If you fall who's going to get Gabriel?" Duo's eyes filled with panic.

Then before anyone could do anything there was loud cracking noise and all the windows of the club came shattering inward. People screamed has it all came crashing in and standing there was a laughing Millardo and next to him Draser along with several other vampires Duo recognized from his days of torture.
