I'd like to give big thanks to: Split persona - Thanks again for your reviews. I really appreciate you reviewing after every chapter. Sorry to have to keep you waiting but here's the next chapter. Hope you like it. Elle-FaTe2x1 - I'm trying to update as best as I can and I thank you for your support. You haven't missed Wufei but he'll be added in here soon or I may work it into what I have already written. You'll have to wait and see. Sapphire - Thanks for your review and I understand what you mean about Heero's power but I have a good reason for letting everyone know about his power. You'll have to read on to find out that reason though.

Chapter 5

Heero still couldn't believe that Duo was standing in front of him after a whole week of waiting. Before he could stand up he found himself tackled to the ground being hugged by the braided boy he barely knew.

Finally coming to himself and realizing exactly what he was doing Duo slowly got off Heero and helped him up blushing slightly.

"Err.sorry 'bout that."

Heero smiled at Duo's discomfort "It's okay," curious as to why Duo had come back he asked "Why are you here?"

"Am I not allowed to be here?" Duo asked jokingly but seeing Heero's serious face he answered honestly "I came to see you."

"Why?"

"Well you are my friend aren't you? And I wanted to see how you were doing after last week"

Heero felt delight at being called Duo's friend. He never had a friend before. Smiling he replied "I am fine but where did you go? I was hoping you'd meet my mother."

"Oh err I had to get home because it was late."

"Is that why you didn't come back earlier, because you were in trouble? I'm sorry if I got you into trouble"

Seeing Heero's sad face Duo smiled at him placing a gentle hand on his shoulder "It's okay it wasn't your fault I got into trouble. Now come on let's play."

Heero looked at Duo questioningly and Duo laughed "Well we are in a park and the purpose of going to park is to play. Don't tell me you've never played in a park before."

"Well I've never had any one who wanted to play with me" Heero replied hesitantly.

Duo was surprised to hear that. He never expected Heero to never have played before. Every child must have played before. Smiling to himself Duo decided he would show Heero how to play many games and what it is like to have a friend. Grabbing Heero's hand he pulled him towards an obstacle course and decided he'd start there.

Meanwhile in the Palace the grand wizard made his way to the throne room. Walking in he looked up to see the king sitting on the plush red throne.

"You called for me your Highness"

"Yes, I've heard you had something to discuss with me"

"Yes it is about my nephew. He is the only full blood dragon wizard left in our clan and I was hoping you would allow him to stay here where he can expand on his magic and hopefully become good friends with your son."

"Hmm I don't have a problem with that idea my friend. Hopefully it will prevent my son from his journey to the surface."

"Oh I wouldn't be to sure about that my lord"

"What do you mean by that?"

"Nothing do not worry about it." With that said the wizard left to make arrangements for his nephew's arrival.

After two hours of non-stop playing Duo was exhausted. Lying on the grass he looked up at the stars.

"What are you thinking about?"

Looking to his side he saw Heero laying next to him expecting an answer. "I was just thinking how pretty the stars look up there."

"Yes they are very pretty. My mum once told me that each star holds a story."

"Oh really how's that?"

"Well she says when we die and if we had a good soul we would become a star. So that means that all the stars up there were once people and so they hold a story. And if you listen carefully they might tell you their tale."

"Wow that sounds cool. Hey Heero do you think I would join the stars when I die?"

"Yes," at this Duo looked at his new friend in wonder, "because you have a kind heart and you were so nice to me when most people won't even talk to me."

At this Duo smiled and sat up noticing it was nearing dawn and he'd have to get home.

"You have to go now don't you?" Heero asked sullenly.

"Yes but don't worry I'll come back again tomorrow."

"You will?"

"Yep I'll e here the same time as tonight. Will you wait for me?"

Heero nodded vigorously happy that he had a friend who wanted to see him again. He waved to Duo as he saw him leaving the park and a few minutes later he left for his own home already counting the hours till he would next meet Duo.
