Chapter 13
Itara woke to the feel of the soft mattress beneath her ad the warmth of something in her arms. Slowly opening her eyes she looked down to see her son holding on to her as if to protect her. Smiling she thought back to the events which took place last night and no matter how much she wished nothing would change. /What is happening to me?/ Stroking her Duo's hair gently she came to her decision. /It would be for the best. It would make everything better/
Mind made up Itara slowly, so as not to wake her son, got out of the bed and went to get ready for the busy day she had ahead of her. Besides if she wanted to go through with her plan she would have to take care of many preparations before this evening.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Heero woke to a new surrounding. Looking around the room he remembered his vision and the events that took place a few hours ago. At first he was very nervous to meet his neighbor because he had no idea what he was like. When an old man had opened the door to welcome him in Heero thought he had nothing to worry about. Dr J seemed nice enough yet Heero couldn't shake off the feeling that there was more to the Doctor with the weird metallic arm. That was the first thing that caught Heero's eye and try as he might to not look at it his eyes betrayed him and kept straying down to look at it once more. Once the paramedic left Heero was shown to his room and told to get some rest. There was no apologies or sympathy from the old man and Heero found that odd too but being to exhausted to dwell on it for to long he decided to take the doctors advice and sleep. Now that he was awake he felt frightened once again. Without his parents who would protect him from the demons? The doctor wouldn't stand a chance against any of them. It was at this time that Heero wished more than ever to have Duo by his side.
Hearing a light knock on his door he looked up to see a middle aged woman walk into the room.
"Who are you?"
"Well now young man is that anyway to treat a lady?"
Shaking his head Heero apologized. Even though he felt sad he should still remember his manners. Smiling the woman present Heero with a tray of toast and orange juice.
"I'm Emily. I work for doctor J helping keep the house clean seeing as he works so much. So you'll be seeing a lot of me as I'll be the one to bring you your meals everyday and make sure you keep your room clean. The doctor doesn't like messes so is you don't make a mess you should be alright. Now eat up and then get ready I'm sure you want to have a look around this place."
Nodding Heero quickly ate his breakfast and went to dress not sure what the day would hold but looking forward to the evening and hoping Duo would know where to find him.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Duo woke within the first hour of the afternoon. Opening his eyes he was surprised not to see his mother still in bed. Wondering where she went he got out of her bed and firstly made his way to his own room in order to wash and get dressed. Once he was done he went in search for Itara but he could not find her. Shrugging he figured he would see her later and went into the library to meet his friends. He smiled as he saw the now familiar picture of Quatre and Trowa cuddling together on the couch and Wufei sitting and reading another book on magic. Smiling he greeted his friends with less enthusiasm as normal because he had too much to think about. He couldn't understand what was happening with his mother and father. It seemed as if they were blaming each other for things that were not in their control. Also there was Heero. He could faintly sense that his friend was safe yet he was still worried about him. He didn't know what would happen now and he would have loved to stay with Heero but the circumstances did not allow it. How he wished he could help with both problems. Duo didn't have the chance to mingle in his thoughts though as they were interrupted by Quatre's worried tone.
"Duo are you okay? You seem tense. Is something the matter?"
"Don't worry Quatre everything is fine," Duo did his best to smile to reassure his friends but he could see that they all doubted that he was okay. Deciding to change the subject he asked, "Has my of you seen my mother?"
Nodding Wufei answered, "She was preparing for something this morning. Last I saw her she was in the training room."
Thanking his friends he excused himself and left in search of his mother not noticing the worrying glances his friends where giving him. Entering the training area he could hear his mother's voice telling people to move things in various directions. Walking in he watched as things were being moved out of the room to make more space.
"Mother I was looking for you when I awoke. I thought you might not have been well."
"I'm okay Duo but I have something important I need to discuss with you. Come with me."
Nodding Duo followed his mother out of the training room and into the secluded weapons keep.
"Son I know that you enjoy your time spent on the surface with your friend and I understand that you want to help him but as you know your father is unwilling to see it our way. Well I know you have enjoyed the training I have given you ands I want to expand on that. However, in order for me to teach you all I know it would mean staying at the places for a few years so I can teach you without interruption. Now before you disagree I must tell you this is the only way I can teach you so if you want to learn you'll have to stay here and further more this is not any ploy of your father's to keep you here it is my idea. Besides after I'm done with my training you can go and see Heero whenever you please even during the day (1)"
At first Duo knew he didn't like the idea of having to leave Duo for years but then he was surprised at the prospect of being able to go see Heero even in the sunlight. Coming to a decision Duo nodded.
"Okay I'll train and stay here but I must be allowed to go see Heero today and I can still send him messages right?"
"Yes my son."
With that said both mother and son left the room one going to prepare for the on coming years and the other going to say a farewell to a friend.
Tbc.
(1) okay well before Duo could only meet Heero at night because of the whole vampires can't go in the sunlight thing but with his mother's help Duo will become a powerful vampire and vampires with great power can with stand sunlight heh.
SM: After long last I have written another chapter and my exams are finally over so hopefully I can write a lot more. ::does happy dance::
Duo: Lets hope so because I have to spend a few years away from my Heero!!
SM: Don't worry Duo you'll see how quickly time flies ::cackles::
Duo: Okay why do I think she has something evil planed?
Heero: Because she always does.
Duo: True. Please review so we can find out what she's up to.
