Chapter 12
Both boys still sat on the street in the rain, Duo try to calm Heero as much as possible and Heero cling to him letting the pain flow out in his tears. They could have been sitting there for hours yet neither seemed willing to move. However, it seemed the world was not on their side for not a few minutes after Heero had started to calm down Duo could hear the sirens of police cars and ambulances headed their way. At first he was confused as to how they would know about the events that occurred but he reasoned that one of the neighbors must have woken up and called for help. Gently moving Heero so he could see his face he smiled and gently wiped away the line of tears marring his face.
"Shh Heero it's okay. Everything will be okay. There's some people coming here to help."
At those words Heero seemed to cling more to Duo. He seemed to realize that if others came Duo would leave and he didn't want him to go. Sensing this discomfort Duo wanted nothing more then to reassure his stricken friend but he knew he would have to leave soon or he'd be caught in the sunlight and that would not be good.
"You have to go don't you?"
"I'm sorry Heero but I must and I'd love to take you with me but I can't (1)"
"It's okay. You should go."
Giving Heero one last hug Duo went down the street and hid. He watched for a few minutes as the police arrived and once he was sure Heero would be okay he made his journey home.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
To Heero everything seemed to happen in a blur. The police first asked him a few questions but he couldn't help them much with finding out about the fire. He couldn't say what he saw because they'd think he was mentally instable if he told them about his visions. He had learnt a long time ago not to tell anyone he didn't know about his powers. Once the police were done with the questions Heero was taken to the paramedics to be checked over just in case he was hurt but he already knew that even though they may fix any outer wounds he had no one could fix the wounds of his heart. /I wish Duo were here. Why did he have to leave me alone/ Heero's thoughts were interrupted by the paramedic telling him something.
"There you go all done. Apart form a few scratches there is nothing to worry about."
Heero looked up to the smiling face of the paramedic. She looked as if she was in her late thirties, a sympathetic aura surrounded her as if she had been through things like this many times and Heero guessed that she had.
"I am truly sorry about your loss and if there's anything you want to make you feel better let me know and I'll help as best I can."
Heero knew that what the woman said was true but the things he wanted most right now she couldn't get unless she could bring angels back to life or she knew where Duo lived. He knew the paramedic could see his pain and the hopelessness of her offer so instead she tried another tactic to get the young boy to cheer up.
"Now come on I'm sure there's something I can do to make you smile at least. Maybe you have some other family we can call?"
Heero shook his head, "I have no family. My parents where the only living relatives I have."
The paramedic frowned at that and left Heero alone for a while to go to talk to one of the policemen. Heero guessed it was most likely the one put in charge of this case. He watched as she talked to him for a few minuets and then she came back a little bit of hope twinkling in her eyes.
"Well Heero I have some good news for you. I know that you're a little shy so it would be hard for you to move to an orphanage so one of your neighbors has offered to look after you until we find a suitable place for you to stay. That would mean you wouldn't have to leave the area that you know."
Heero looked at the woman strangely. He didn't understand why his neighbors would want to take a boy like him in. He and his parents never really talked to their neighbors so why would one of them care enough to take him in?
"Who is it?"
"Well I'm sure you must know him. He goes by the name of Dr J. (2)"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Duo made it back as quick as possible using some of his power to move faster. As soon as he entered the castle doors he was greeted by his friends. He knew they were curious as to what he did whenever he want up to the surface but right now he couldn't think about that. Quickly moving past them he went in search of his mother. He had to see her and find a way to protect Heero. Turning the corner he want towards his parents room rushing in to see his mother sitting on the bed reading. Well she was reading but as soon as she heard the door being opened so forcefully she ignored the book and looked up at her panting son.
"Duo are you okay? What's the big hurry?"
"I'm sorry for running in like that mother but I have some terrible news."
Itara, seeing her son's distress, motioned him to sit on the bed and tell her what was wrong.
"well I want to see Heero as I always did but this time I had bought him a present and he was all happy when I gave it to him so I offered to take him for some ice cream and I was surprised that his father actually let me take him out coz he's a lot like dad very protective but Magami was a lot like you."
At the sound of Magami's name Itara gasped. She was positive she knew someone called Magami a long time ago.
"Whoa Duo slow down a bit. Now tell who is Magami?"
"She's Heero's mother. Well she was."
"What do you mean was?"
"Well I was getting to that. You see when me and Heero got our ice cream he suddenly went all still like, like he did the first time we met and I told you about and then he ran. I followed him back to his house but his home wasn't there anymore. It was burnt down and his parents are gone now his all alone."
"Oh Duo. I wish we could help."
Duo looked at his mother with his bright purple eyes hoping she could do what he was about to ask.
"Well I was hoping Heero could come stay here. I know his human and all but maybe we could make and exception?"
Before Itara could reply the door to the room was slammed shut and Arlos stood there face red with anger.
"ABSOLUTELY NOT!! I will NOT have some human roaming around my castle."
"Arlos please try to understand! The poor boy just lost his parents and he's probably hurting so much."
"NO!! I already gave you my answer and that is final. NOW Duo go to your room."
As Duo got up to leave his mother grab his wrist and pulled him gently to sit back down.
"Don't you dare raise your voice at my son do you understand?"
"No Itara I have had about enough of him putting himself in danger and YOU allowing him to go without a second thought. Don't you understand that if we don't protect him no one else will and then what will happen? Where you not bought up with rules or were you allowed to run around as you pleased?"
Trying to hold her anger in Itara failed and with a feral yell her power seemed to increase, a black aura surrounding her and her ruby eyes became even dark.
"King Arlos you are not the only one who was bought up by rulers. If you have not forgotten it was your very own family with all it's rules that caused havoc so don't preach to me about looking after my child. NOW GET OUT BEFORE I DO SOMETHING YOU'LL REGRET EVER STARTING!!!"
Arlos knowing he could never talk to his wife when she was like this gave up and left. Duo just sat quietly on the bed shocked at his mother's strength and the evil he could feel coming ever closer to the surface. He watched as it slowly disappeared and then his mother fell to the floor in a heap curling in on herself and not stopping her whimpers and tears as they fell. Getting up from the bed Duo moved to his mother's and hugged her as best he could. Itara turned into the loving hands of her son crying with all the grief in her soul and apologizing continuously for things not even Duo knew about.

Okay there are many people who I know would like Heero to stay with Duo but I'm afraid he can't right now as you have found out.

SM: Another chapter done yay!!
Duo: Erm don't you have exams?
SM: Yes
Duo: So shouldn't you be revising?
SM: Yeah
Duo: Then what are you doing writing this story?
SM: Well there are quite a few reasons for that 1. I've already done 3 of my exams and they 2 out of the 3 went very well 2. I only got 2 more exams to do 3. My other 2 exams aren't until Friday so I have time 4. In English we are studying Edward II and we watched the movie to it and the director of the movie was homosexual so there was lots of yaoi in it so I couldn't resist writing more of this after watching that movie!! That answer your questions?
