Duo frantically tried to wipe his eyes free of the tears that were flowing from his eyes. "Baby...what's wrong?" Natasha asked. He hadn't realized she walked in while he was wiping his eyes. "..." he didn't say a word. He averted his eyes from her and stared at the floor. "Baby, you were crying, weren't you." she asked worriedly. He didn't move. His shoulders shuddered as a few tears escaped his eyes and hit the floor. He still didn't move, not even to wipe his eyes. "Yes...I was. Im sorry" he trailed off. "Baby, it's ok, I promise." she said. She walked over to him and pulled him by his chin to look at her.
She wiped his eyes and said gently, "what's wrong baby?" more tears poured out of his eyes. "I-I've just, I've just been hurt and left so many times. I'm finally convinced that everything that is good for me will be taken from me." he said. He started crying hysterically. She held him close to her breast. Then he started crying harder.
"Its ok, it's ok, im not leaving love. I promise." she said soothingly. They sat there for awhile. No one disturbed them, no one walked anywhere near them. They just sat there. Duo in Natasha's arms crying hysterically and her, holding herself together barely, holding him and stroking his hair. He finally started calming down.
"Th-thank-you so much baby. I love you." he said between huffs. "I love you too baby. Im not going anywhere I promise, okay love?" she said. He only nodded. He wiped his eyes free of the last few tears. He kissed her on the cheek before holding her to his chest. She sat there, listing to the rhythm of his heart. "Duo!" Wufei yelled. Duo and Natasha jumped slightly.
"What?" Duo yelled back. "Whitefang is here. And they aren't happy." Duo looked at Natasha worriedly. "Stay here." he said to her. She nodded. They kissed quickly before Duo got up to head towards Wufei. As he walked down the stairs he heard a loud mob outside. As he walked by a window, er where a window was, there was a huge gang outside throwing rocks, shooting at their house.
He saw Wufei heading towards the basement and followed behind him. The others were already down here. On the walls of the basement were different assortment of weaponry. Guns, knives, swords, lances, staffs, katanas, and many others. "They have guns, chains swords, grenades, and other weapons." Heero said. "Where are all of our carbines and other longer range weapons at?" Wufei asked. "Getting their sights aligned at the shop." Trowa said. "Why didn't you ask me, I would have done it?" Wufei said. "We did." Heero said blankly. Wufei looked away. Duo walked across the room and opened a closet. He pulled out his trench coat and combat boots. He laced up his boots and slid his trench coat on. "If you want to use guns go ahead. I won't." Duo said. "I have my scythe, tonfas, and swords." he strapped his scythe to his back and sheathed each sword to each hip. He kept his tonfas on hand.
Quatre walked over and pulled two scimitars and a couple of daggers and cutlasses. Trowa only reached for a lance and rapier. Heero walked over and pulled down a quiver of arrows and a bow, k-bar knife, and two pistols. Wufei took only his katana and a staff. They heard glass breaking. "Lets go before we don't have a house to protect." Quatre said. They all walked out of the basement. Heero headed towards the roof while Duo headed to the second story. "Duo, why are you going up there?" Wufei asked. "I'm gonna scare them." he said blankly.
The other three walked towards the front door. Duo was at ta window and looked out of it to see how many there were. As soon as his head got around a corner, a bullet whizzed by his head. He dropped quickly. Way too close, he said to himself. He heard men screaming. He looked up wearily and saw a small clearing and two men laying on the ground with an arrow stuck in his throat.
He took advantage of the confusion and jumped through the window. As he came down he pulled his scythe out, ready to kill. As he landed, he took out three peoples legs. Wufei came through another window at the window by the door. But Quatre and Trowa weren't out yet. I swear, if they took time to screw each other I will kill them. He said to himself. Heero took out as many as he could with his bow and arrows. Soon he heard gunshots from Heero's pistols.
Soon Quatre came from the side of the house and began working on the left side of the group of whitefang. Trowa was still nowhere to be seen. They were hacking away and killing for 30 or so minutes. Heero finally came down and started helping with his k-bar knife. Duo felt an immense burning in his left arm. He looked down to see he had been shot in the arm. Blood was already gushing out. Heero threw him a rag. Duo quickly tied it off.
As he finished a man took his scythe and broke it. Duo's eyes twitched. "That was a gift from Hilde!" Duo screamed. He reached down and grabbed his two swords and cut the mans troat and stuck the other in another man's heart. Trowa jumped over his shoulder and took out a group of men. "Where the hell have you been?" Duo yelled. "I found my sniper in my room so I was taking out people from the roof. I had a silencer so you didn't hear it." Trowa said. Just then a scream erupted from the house.
Duo's eyes widened. He started running towards the house hacking through anyone who got in the way. "NATASHA!" he screamed. Someone knocked his swords out of his hands. He kept running, getting hit by chains and blades. He pulled out his tonfas and started hacking his way to the front door. His only thoughts were getting to Natasha. Please be okay, o god please please be okay. He finally reached the house and whispered, "I owe you one guys." he ran into the house to find the once beautiful living room destroyed. He ran upstairs, scared of what their room might look like.
As soon as he stepped in the room, he stopped in awe at the destruction of the room. He felt the grip of the weapons slipping and falling to the ground. But he never heard them hit the ground. He didn't care, not one bit. Sh-she's gone... he said to himself. He breathing hastened quickly. He felt his hands shaking. There were footsteps behind him. He snapped out of his daze and realized that someone was behind him. He reached down with lightning speed, grabbing his tonfas and turned around to see a man clad in black armor. The likes of which he had never seen. The man had what appeared to be wings on his back. He held a black bastard sword in his right hand and a short sword in his left.
"This is Duo Maxwell? Pathetic." the man said. He laughed and readied his blades. Duo readied himself but was quickly caught off guard when the man lunged forward and elbowed him in the stomach. Duo coughed up blood and fell to his knees.
