Chapter 15
Heero was awoken by the sound of the door opening. Expecting to see Emily, he was surprised when he saw Dr J walking into the room.
"Get dressed boy it's time to start your training."
With that said Dr J left the room. Heero, still sleepy from having been woken up so early, slowly got out of the bed and to get ready. Not ten minutes later there was a man he hadn't seen before at his room door.
"Dr J is expecting you. You should have been ready five minutes ago. The doctor is not a patient man."
Heero sighed and followed the man out the door and to a huge metal door. Heero couldn't help but fear whatever lay behind that thick door.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
As soon as Duo got back to the palace he was faced by the curious eyes of his friends. Deciding to ignore their questioning looks for the moment, Duo made his way to his chambers. Having a quick shower and change of clothes Duo made his way to his mother's chambers. Knocking and then walking in he saw his mother put down the hair brush she had just finished using.
"Ah Duo have you said your goodbyes?"
"Yes mother I'm ready to begin as soon as you are."
"Well then shall we go?"
Duo nodded and followed his mother to the newly arranged training room.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Heero trudged back to his room exhausted. He didn't understand how he could still move. The whole day had been full of pain and he wanted it all to stop. He could still see the images of the various people lives J made him touch. No matter how many times he fell unconscious when he woke up about an hour later there where more people waiting to torture him in ways they would never understand. Collapsing on his bed Heero looked out the window knowing he would have to be up early the next morning and he would have to go through the same process as today all over again. He just hoped it wouldn't get any worse. Closing his eyes Heero once again heard a soft humming of a familiar tune drifting through his mind but this time he remembered some of the words.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Duo had just finished his first day of training and he had to admit it was tiring. However, his mother told him it was expected seeing as he was not used to using so much of his strength. They hadn't done a lot that day actually just a few new tricks and defense maneuvers, nothing to strenuous yet Duo still felt as if he would fall asleep on his feet. Slowly moving towards his desk Duo sat down and began to write. No matter how tired he was duo wouldn't neglect to keep his promise to Heero. Finishing his letter he placed it in an envelope and using what he though was the last of his strength he sent the letter to Heero. Smiling softly Duo changed and collapsed on his bed falling asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
(5 years later)
It had been five years since Heero had last seen Duo but he was amazed how Duo had still managed to keep writing to him without running out of things to say. No matter how many times Duo assured him that they would meet again soon Heero was starting to lose hope once again. He faced five years of endless torture, of waking up early in the morning and getting to bed late at night and just collapsing from exhaustion. Dr J seemed to be continuously learning about new powers that Heero possessed and didn't even know he had. He guessed that J had been researching a lot into his race and had expected a lot from him. In the past five years Heero had perfected his skill and just like J had told him from the beginning he was now able to go out at anytime of the day without worrying that accidentally touching someone will cause him pain. However, that was not the problem. He would go out if only J would let him. It seemed that J had become so obsessed with his powers that he feared if Heero left someone else would take him away but Heero knew that if he left he would never come back and he suspected J knew that too, unless there was something j wasn't telling him. Whenever j researched anything and found something new he would tell Heero in order to prepare him for the new training but lately it seemed that J was hiding something very important and if it had anything to do with Heero's powers he guessed it would be fatal not only to him but perhaps to the whole world. This is what Heero feared the most. He knew that with the power J held over him he wouldn't be able to stop him and like someone said, too much power can corrupt a man. For the past five years Heero watched as it happened. At first J just concentrated on the powers Heero knew about and after a while the pain became less and less but as soon as J figured that out the physical torture began and Heero remember the pain well.
~~Flashback~~ It was like every other morning, Heero awoke early and looked to his windowsill to find another letter form Duo waiting for him. Smiling only slightly he went to retrieve it and hid it under his bed so he could read it later. Quickly getting dressed Heero was once again escorted to the room with the huge metal door. Shivering at the sight of it Heero reluctantly walked through the door when it was opened.
"It's good to see you up and ready boy. Now lets begin."
Heero noticed that J's voice seemed colder then usual and this worried him. Reluctantly he moved towards the line of people and touched each on in turn watching the past or future lives of those he was told to read. He found it a lot easier now to control his power and even though everything he want through he felt a small bit of gratitude towards J but it was very very small. Coming to the end of the line he looked to J for approval but was surprised when he found a frown on his face.
"Come here boy."
Heero quickly moved to stand in front of J and stood still as he was inspected form head to toe.
"I see that you can control your power well and you no longer feel the pain of using it. You are moving ahead of schedule. Good. Now boy is there any other powers you know about that you have not told me?"
Heero kept quiet. He only knew two of his powers, one J already knew about and the other he want to keep to himself. Seeing that he was not going to be answered J became angry and hit Heero across the face making sure to scratch the skin with his metal claws. Heero collapsed to the floor from the force of the blow but as he turned to look at J he heard a gasp from the doctor and knew that J had found his other power.
"Well this is an interesting new feature."
Heero watched as J smirked and came towards him with a knife in hand.
~~End Flashback~~
Heero shuddered as he came out of his memory not wanting to remember the hours of physical pain he went through because J had found out that he could regenerate and wanted to rest how long it would take him to heal for the different depths of the wound. From there it just got worse and worse. Heero didn't know how much more of this he could take. He just wanted to care for him or he wanted to die and be released from this hell. However, the only person who Heero knew cared for him wouldn't be returning anytime soon it seemed. Curling onto the bed Heero tried to sleep and once again a tuned floated to him but this time he remembered. After five years he remember the words from the lullaby sung to him by his mother. It was all about him and how he was the child of the angels but mainly it was a song to return happiness. Smiling Heero closed his eyes and let the melody carry him away knowing that soon his happiness would return.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
In the palace of Bathoria the door to the training room opened and both mother and son stepped out.
"Duo I have taught you all I know. Finally you can leave this dump and go meet Heero."
Smiling Duo hugged his mother tightly and ran to his room. Getting dressed for bed he decided not to send Heero a note and just surprise him in the morning. Soon he would be reunited with his friend who he worried about. Even though he hadn't seen his friend he could sense his fear and Duo couldn't wait to chase that fear away and hopefully win Heero's heart. For the past five years Duo had learned a lot about himself and not only his powers. Looking back at the times he spent with Heero, the things Heero wrote to him and than comparing it with the time he spent at the palace with Quatre, Trowa and Wufei; Duo realized that what he felt for Heero went beyond friendship and that perhaps he even loved him. Smiling to himself Duo closed his eyes anxious for the night to pass so he could meet Heero once again.
Tbc.
SM: Whew that took me ages to write.
Duo: Getting a bit rusty?
SM: Shut it I don't need your rude comments.
Duo: What do you expect after what you made Heero go through!!
Heero: ::Glares::
SM: Hey I'm sorry it wasn't my fault Demon Duo still had Angel Heero tied up so I had to listen to him. Besides things seem to be getting better now seeing as you finished your training and all.
Duo: They better get better or you may not live to see another day.
SM: ::Gulps:: Err yeah. Well please review and I'll try to write more soon seeing as I got holiday from school but I've been given so much work I'm not sure if I'll find the time but I'll try my best. I also apologize if there are a lot of time jumps but I am hoping to finish this fic soon as I have another story in mind which I want to write.
