Annie: Enjoy!
"Hello Quatre, what do I owe the pleasure of this call?" Relena asked when she appeared on the screen to the vidphone Quatre was using in his sister's office.
"Hello, Relena, I have decided to finally take you up on the house you offered. If it is still available." Quatre replied.
"Of course, it is, no one else wants it. I would have turned it into an orphanage if you did not take it by the end of the year." Relena told him.
"From the pictures, you sent me of it before, I agree, an orphanage would have been perfect." Said Quatre as the door to the office opened.
"Do you know what you need for him? Sorry if I am interrupting." Iria asked him as she entered her office.
"No, it's fine Iria, I have your notes in front of me." Quatre replied as he looked at his older sister.
"Making sure little brother." Iria replied before she left the office.
"Quatre?" Relena asked, wondering what that had been about.
"Sorry, Relena, that was one of my 29 older sisters, Dr. Iria Winner." Quatre told her.
"What did she mean if you knew what you needed for who? Is someone hurt?" asked Relena, worried about Quatre and the others, as Quatre looked away with a sigh before he looked back at her.
"Officially, Heero, Trowa, Wufei, and I are on vacation while helping me manage my business. Unofficially, Lady Une ordered us to find Duo since someone took out an assassination contract out on him. Trolina warned Trowa that if the four of us did not hurry and find Duo soon, then he would die." Said Quatre, making Relena gasp in shock and horror.
"You found him alive? Didn't you?" Relena asked clearly worried.
"Yes, but it was a close one. Iria said if we were a few minutes later, we would have been too late, and he would be dead right now." Quarte told her with a sad smile.
"Oh, thank god." Relena said with a sigh, she was relieved to hear that Duo was alive.
"He had multiple broken bones most of which have healed, only his arm; jaw, which was wired shut; and both his legs are still broken. He will be confined to a wheelchair until his legs heal." Quatre told her.
"So, the house needs to be wheelchair accessible and need a bunch of other things." Relena said as Quatre nodded.
"I have Iria's notes of what we will be needing." Quatre said.
"Tell me and I will get right on it and fix the place up for you right away." Relena told him.
"Of course." Quatre said before he read off what they would need to help take care of Duo.
"Once you are settled, let me know and I will stop by to see everyone." Relena told him when they were done.
"It will be a while before we leave L4. Iria wants to make sure that Duo is well enough to leave before we can take a shuttle to earth." Quatre told her.
"I understand. Will you tell him I hope he gets better soon?" Relena replied as he nodded.
"I will." Quatre agreed before they ended the vid call.
A week later Iria took Duo to the operating room to remove the wires that had kept his jaw shut for the past 12 weeks. He was out for a few days afterward and she encouraged him to speak even if his voice wasn't as loud as it used to be from un-use. They stayed on L4 for a month so Iria could deem Duo ready to travel and once he proved he could get in and out of the wheelchair she gave him to use until his legs healed and that he could get around fine. She released him from her care and the hospital and cleared him for travel.
