Chapter 6
Duo had no idea why he's father wanted to see him. As soon as he got home from meeting Heero he was told his father wanted to see him and was being led to the throne room. He didn't know what he had done wrong. He wasn't late in coming home, he had made sure to leave plenty of time to get back as he didn't want to be banned from going to the surface and never seeing Heero again. He silently followed the guard to the throne room where said guard bowed and left closing the door silently behind him. Before his father could even begin to say a word Duo spoke.
"I'm sorry father but I didn't do anything. It wasn't me I promise. You have no proof. I was dead at the time (1)"
Chuckling at his son's behavior he held his hand up in order to stop his son's rambling.
"I know you have done nothing wrong. You being in trouble is not the reason I asked you here unless you have done something I should know about?"
At this Duo shook his head incessantly.
"Good. Now the reason I have asked you here is ask you a favor."
"What is it father? I will do anything I can"
Arlos smiled at his son's willingness to help him. "Well you do know the grand wizard. His nephew will be coming to stay with us to learn to master his magic and he is arriving tomorrow night. I would appreciate it if you would be here to greet our guest and possibly become good friends with him seeing as he is the same age as you."
"But father I have already made plans for tomorrow night."
"No buts!! You will be here to greet our guest understood!?"
"Yes father"
"Good now I'm sure you are tired so I suggest you go and rest."
Duo left the room immediately going to his room. His father's so called 'favor' had become a command and now he would be late meeting Heero. Why did he have to meet their guest tomorrow anyway? He was staying here after all and he could have met him the next day. Sighing softly Duo got into his bed and hoped that he would be able to go meet Heero tomorrow after all he had promised he would be there.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The next evening Duo watched the grandfather cloak in the hall and realized the sun would be setting soon and Heero would be waiting for him.
"Don't worry my son I'm sure you'll get time to see him. Besides it only takes a few minutes to greet someone."
Duo turned to see his mother's smiling face and smiled slightly back. He didn't know whether to believe her. He had the sinking feeling that meeting this so called young wizard would take longer then a few minutes if his father had anything to do with it.
"Come now son do you honestly believe your mother would let you stay coped up here for the night."
Smiling at his mother he realized she was right. She always would somehow talk his father into letting him have his way. He sometimes asked her how she did it but she'd always say it was her little secret.
Placing a hand on her son's shoulder she looked out the window he was sitting by and noticed movement down by the castle gates.
"Come now Duo our guest has arrived and the sooner you greet him the sooner you can go and meet your special friend."
With that said Duo followed his mother down the corridors nodding as he was taught to whenever a servant bowed. When they arrived at the luscious hallway by the main door he stood next to his mother. Ever so slowly the doors opened and the door slave stepped in looking at his father who had been standing by the grand stairs.
"Your majesties may I introduced the last of the full blood dragon clan Chang Wufei"
As soon as the announcement was made the servant stepped aside and Duo watched as a young boy around his age stepped through the door, his shoulder length hair tied in a tight and neat ponytail. When Duo was told he would be meeting a wizard of his age he didn't expect him to look quite like Wufei but there was no doubt that Wufei was wizard. Duo could feel the magic wafting off him in great waves proving he was very powerful. Being the cheerful person he was Duo moved forward and stuck out his hand.
"Hello Wufei. I'm Duo also known as Shinigami whichever you wish to call me though I prefer Shinigami and."
Before Duo could continue his father interrupted him. "Duo I am sure our guest is tired from his journey and you're probably scare him with all your talking."
Mocking hurt at his father's comment Duo pouted and went to stand by his mother.
"I am sorry about my son young one. You will be shown to your room and you may rest if you wish."
Looking up at the tall man Wufei nodded his head and followed the servant who was instructed to take him to his room. Duo turned his eyes to his father.
"Am I allowed to go now?"
Arlos was about to protest but the look from his wife stopped him. Nodding his head slowly he watched as Duo walked off.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Heero had been waiting an hour since the time Duo was supposed to meet him. He was starting to worry whether something had happened. /No nothing could have happened. I mean Duo is strong he did manage to carry me home that first night/ blushing at that thought Heero once again looked at his watch. Time would not stop or slow down and with each second that went by Heero felt more and more alone. /Maybe he didn't mean what he said. He might have just been nice and he probably never wants to see me again and so he didn't show up/ Even when thinking it Heero knew it wasn't true. He was positive Duo wouldn't lie to him yet it still hurt to think Duo would never want to see him again and that's what confused him. Hearing footsteps in the distance Heero looked up expectant eyes hoping to see Duo standing there grinning. However, it was not Duo instead it was a tall bulky man and he appeared to be drank.
"Hey there beautiful. What are you doing here all by yourself this late at night?"
Heero cringed away at the looks the man was giving him. He was now scared and wanting to go home. Slowly getting off the swing he turned and would have run home if an hand didn't grab his wrist preventing his escape. He would have struggled and tried to get away if it wasn't for the images that suddenly assaulted him.
He could see all the evil things this man had did. The many crimes he committed and then he saw the most vulgar image of all. It was an image of him and the dirty things (2) the man wanted to do to him. Coming out of his trance he didn't faint as usual instead he began to struggle trying to get the grip around him to loosen but it was to no avail. He was suddenly shoved to the floor the man looming above him and he could smell the alcohol on his breath. Closing his eyes tight Heero wished this would end. He hoped that someone, anyone would help him but mostly he hoped that Duo would come and save him and hold him safely telling him it would all be okay.

This is an Eddie Ezard quote. Dunno if I spelt the name right but he's a comedian and he's very funny in my opinion anyway.
The reason I won't go into detail about what Heero saw is because Heero is only 8 and he won't know what is happening anyway. All he knows is that it is bad.
Duo: HOW DARE YOU PUT MY HEE - CHAN IN THAT SITUATION AND STOP WRITING!!??
SM: Err coz I'm evil?
Duo: Damn straight you are!! My poor Hee - chan ::sniffs:: I HATE YOU!!
SM: I'm sorry please don't hate me!! It's not my fault my sadistic muse gave me this idea!! ::Hides from all the angry readers::
Duo: Please review so she writes more quickly. And then once she's finished we can kill her for what he's done!!
