Chapter: 13/?
Pairings: 1x2, 3x4 and 13x5x6.
Rating: R, drama, angst and sap. TWT
Warnings: R, violence, darkness, madness, bad language and
some sap. To those whom actually likes Relena I must tell you
that I plainly hate her and this fic is a real big Relena
bashing, don't flame me for it because you have been already
warned. All flames will be made fun of!
Since I had a big problem about Wufei's honor and loyalty to his
comrades I send the timeline to fly far away and our dear Treize
will not die ^^V
AN: Well, this is my first fic about Gundam Wing so I ask
you to please not be too harsh with me ^^! Even when there's 3x4
and 13x5x6 the main pair is 1x2. Maybe you could think Heero is
OOC but I don't think so... He's in love; you know how that
affects people. OOC Relena? Don't make me laugh, I don't think
there can be an OOC Relena... I hope you understand what I mean.

Chapter 13
Three weeks had already left and there still was no sign of Wufei.
The only news they had of Zechs was that he had gone to see his
sister and as the doctors had predicted she came back to reality;
she had ended crying and asking for Heero. Zechs had sent a mail
to Noin telling her that he wouldn't be coming back soon because
of some personal business he had. He said Relena was back to her
normal self, or at least as normal as she could be.
By orders of Milliard Peacecraft the five pilots, Sally and Noin
had permission to live in the Sanc kingdom and take over the
security and some of the political issues. Heero and Noin were
designated to take care of that, Quatre would help Noin and Sally
about all the government issues and Trowa and Duo would work with
Heero about the security. The gundams had been left under
Howard's care and wouldn't be destroyed as Relena always wanted
to do.
Heero was checking some of the security devices he had installed
when Quatre came running towards him.
"Heero! They had found him! They finally found Wufei!"
Heero's eyes opened wide and you could see the expression of
relief on his face.
"Where is he?"
"Professor G called a few minutes ago. He said that Master O
had found him in the dark side of the moon. He was almost without
oxygen and unconscious"
Heero frowned.
"Is he alright? Is there any physical or mental damage?"
"They said he was ok, but that he wouldn't talk at all...
and he doesn't want to eat. They had to force him to drink water,
but when that didn't result they simply sedated him and inserted
an IV. He had been fed that way..."
"Wufei you're a fucking idiot"
Quatre didn't answer but he clearly agreed with Heero.
"Did he say if we could go for him?"
"I asked him and it seems that there wouldn't be any
problem, but I don't think Wufei will want to come here"
"I don't care a shit if we wants or not. He'll come here and
that's it!"
Heero turned around and left the room he was in while calling for
Duo.
"Duo?"
"Yes, my so good in bed lover?"
Heero shook his head.
"Quatre told me that they finally found our idiot Chinese
friend. We'll be leaving now to space"
"WHAT?!"
"You heard perfectly well what I said Duo"
"Baka... Anyway, when did he knew about it?"
"Today, Professor G called here and he said Wufei is with
Master O at L-1. Get ready and please tell Trowa to get ready too"
"Ok"
Duo hang up his cell and went to where Trowa was testing some
alarms that were around the pool. He explained him about Wufei
and that they would be leaving right now. Trowa nodded and
followed him towards the mansion and then he continued to the
room he shared with Quatre.
"Quatre? Are you here?"
"I'm in the bathroom! I'll be out in a minute!"
"Ok"
Trowa went to his closet and took some clothes and the basics he
had in the room. Just some minutes later the blonde Arabian left
the bathroom and too went to look for a gym bag for his and
Trowa's things. It was supposed to be a short trip so they didn't
need too much.
"Does Noin knows how to contact Zechs?"
"She sent a mail telling him about Wufei to the address he
used to send the mails here. I just hope that was a real mail"
"I know little one. I would like to know what had he been
doing all this time anyway"
"You and all the ones in this house"
There was knock on the door and Trowa went to open it.
"It's time, let's go"
And with that Heero turned over his heel and left. Quatre took
their things and followed Trowa out of the room.
* * *
"Lady Une?"
The woman lifted her head form some documents she had been
reading and almost fell from her chair at who she had in front of
her.
"Z-Zechs..."
The blonde nodded and walked through the office to then seat in
front of the large desk.
"Lady Une, I was told that pilot 05 had been found, is that
true?"
The way he was talking was making her nervous. Even when Wufei
had killed Treize she couldn't be mad at him because she had seen
the boy and the state he was in. She had the feeling that Zechs
didn't want to be actually nice with him.
"That depends... what would you want with him?"
Zechs frowned.
"I think that's nothing of your business"
Lady Une stood up and walked around the desk to the stand in
front of Zechs with a determined expression.
"It is my business when it comes to him. Wufei Chang had
suffered more than enough and in his current state he can't be
disturbed. I won't let you harm him; I know how much you loved
Treize-sama but that boy is not the responsible of his death"
"You don't understand Une-"
"I understand more than you can imagine! Treize-sama loved
the both of you! You two were everything to him! Didn't he ask
you to take care of the boy?! Didn't you love Wufei too?"
Zechs sighed.
"You have misunderstood me Lady Une. I think you will
understand better after you have read this"
He took a report for him briefcase and gave it to her. She took
it almost hesitant and read it. Her eyes started to widen every
time more and more.
"I-is this true! Are you sure?!"
"Completely... so now would you tell me where's Wufei?"
She smiled.
"He's with one of the scientist at L-1 but the other pilots
are in their way to take him back to earth. He's stable enough
for the trip and he would be in better hands. He'll be at the
palace with his other comrades-"
"Friends, Lady, they are his friends... and I hope mine as
well"
"Please be careful with him"
"I will. Bye Lady Une and please send me a report of your
work forming the Preventers"
"It'll be at your desk in Sanc in two days"
With that Zechs left the office and Lady Une went back to seat on
her chair and smiled.
* * *
They had finally arrived to L-1 and were now driving towards the
hospital they had Wufei in. They were nervous and they had their
reasons, even when they had been told, they feared the state they
would find their friend. And they weren't disappointed.
"Oh my God..."
Wufei was sleeping, but that didn't made them feel any better.
His skin was utterly pale and he was very thin. There were dark
circles around his eyes and they could see the marks on his
wrists, he had tried to kill himself. Master O entered the room
and spoke softly.
"He's under sedatives and I think he should be kept that way
during the way back to earth"
Quatre looked at him and asked.
"When you found him... had he already tried to..."
"No. He did that once we had brought him here. The last
thing he said before we made him sleep was You were wrong. I
am weak. Since then he only had awaken three times, but he
didn't say a word"
They all reminded in silence, what else they could say anyway?
Duo sighed and walked towards the bed; he took one of the slender
and pale hands and shook his head.
"You're and idiot Fei-Fei..."
Heero turned to look at the scientist at the door and crossed his
arms in front of his chest.
"I want his whole medical report. Nothing left out of it.
We'll be taking him with us in half an hour"
Master O nodded and left the room. It was then that he heard a
soft moan coming from Wufei's bed. He turned and saw all the
three other pilots looking at the bed too. Wufei opened his eyes
slowly and blinked several times to focus his vision. When he
noticed who were the shadows he had seen first his eyes widened
in fear.
"Wufei? Wufei can you talk?"
He closed his eyes again hoping that when he opened them again
the figures had disappeared. But they didn't they were still
there.
"Please leave"
"We can't Fei-Fei. We came to take you back to earth"
Wufei frowned or at least he tried to; he was weak and his
muscles didn't seem to be obeying him.
"There's nothing for me there. I want to stay here... to die
here"
"That's not an option. You're coming with us you want it or
not"
Wufei looked at Duo, he was smiling at him but his expression was
determined. He turned to look at the rest of the pilots and saw
the same thing. He sighed.
"You'll bring me with you no matter what... Why?"
"Because, Wu-bear, you're our friend and I miss you chasing
after me for calling you names and hiding your things"
"Idiot"
"I know"
Wufei smiled weakly but it didn't last long. He closed his eyes
and soon he was asleep again. Duo let go of Wufei's hand and
turned to look at Heero.
"We better go now before he wake up again"
"As soon as they give me his medical report. The doctors
must be coming here to prepare him; they'll give him some
sedatives for the trip"
Quatre told them that he would go and prepare their space ship.
Trowa went with him leaving Duo and Heero alone with the sleeping
Chinese.
"He's worst than I thought he would be. Heero, there's
nothing we can do for him... He lost the two persons he loved the
most"
"Zechs is still alive..."
"Yes but we don't know where he is and if he want to even
see him..."
"I think he already knows about Wufei... Is a thing of time
for him to come to earth looking for him"
Duo was worried, Zechs had been with Treize even before they
started their relationship with the Chinese pilot and for the
once known as the Lighting Count the lost of his first lover must
have been really hard to cope. Especially when the one who killed
him was his other lover.
"Heero, we must be careful if he appears there. I won't let
him hurt my friend, it was not his fault. Even you couldn't
control the zero system the first time"
"Don't worry Duo, nothing will happen to Wufei if I can help
it"
Duo smiled and kissed his lover. They stayed in the room all the
time, even when the doctors came to prepare Wufei. They had
brought a special bed for trips out space and once they had
changed the boy from beds they strapped him to the bed and gave
him a strong sedative that would last the whole trip towards
earth. Both pilots followed the nurses through the halls of the
hospital and towards their space ship where Trowa and Quatre were
waiting.
Master O was there too and he had a thick manila envelope in his
hands.
"Here, this is was you wanted. You'll find all his medical
history and a complete report of his state and what happened
since the moment we found him"
Heero took the envelope in his hands and nodded.
"Thank you"
With that he entered the ship after Duo. The nurses had secured
the bed and then left giving Duo a supply of Wufei's medications
and more sedatives just in case. Once everything was ready they
left the colony and flew back to earth. They were so concerned
about Wufei and arriving as soon as they could that they didn't
notice the other space ship behind them.
"Trowa go back with Heero, and help him with Wufei. I don't
know about these things as much as you. I'll take the controls of
the ship now"
Trowa nodded and gave his seat to Duo. They all knew that he was
the best when it came to landing and since Wufei was in a
delicate state he would be extra careful not to be too rough.
* * *
"Sally, they're in his way back"
"Ok. I already told the servants to arrange a room for him
and the doctors will be waiting for them at the airport"
Noin nodded and left the room. Sally was checking a report from
other country about foreign trades between them when her personal
line started to blink signaling someone was calling. She lifted
one eyebrow and answered the call. She saw the face of Lady Une
at the other side of the screen and she was smiling.
"Lady Une"
"Sally, I'm calling to warn you that Zechs will be arriving
there soon. Please don't tell anyone about this, he didn't want
people knowing he's coming back"
"I see... Does he know that Wufei had been found and that
he's coming here?"
"Yes, but don't worry. Everything will be ok"
Sally frowned.
"I don't know. Since Noin got that mail from him she had
been somewhat depressed and having Wufei here isn't going to be
easy for her... but with the both of them here..."
"Then she'll have to learn to live with it. I was in a
position even worst than hers and I could live with it. She had
never seen them together as I did. If she loves him as she say
she does then she should be happy for him, Sally"
Sally smiled sadly.
"I know Une. But it's not easy and you know it"
"Yes I know, but I know too that there's other things more
important right now. By the way, I would like you two to come
here in two weeks. There's some things about Preventers I would
like to talk about with the both of you"
"Ok, I'll talk with her about it. Oh, if you can contact
Zechs, please tell him to contact me before he gets here"
"I will"
With that Lady Une hang up and Sally stood there looking at the
black screen in front of her.
This is going to be a hard week
She shook her head and continued with her work.
* * *
"We're approaching Sanc airport guys! Get into your seats,
put your seatbelts on and please turn off any electronic device.
Remember that it is not allowed to smoke and you should stay in
your seats until the plane had stopped completely. Thank you for
flying with Duo's airlines, Shinigami enterprises"
"Baka!
Heero said from the back of the space ship. Duo grinned and
answered back.
"You love me anyway!"
Heero smiled while checking Wufei. He took seat at one side of
the bed and put on his seatbelt. Trowa had already done that and
had one hand over one side of the bed and the other over his
seatbelt. Just in case.
Quatre was checking their instruments and Duo maneuvered the ship
to get it in position. The landing gear was already out and
Quatre was calling the airport asking for permission to land. The
landing was soft and Heero thought of giving Duo a really good
prize for it. Duo was an expert flying planes or space ships and
especially when he had to land, but he always tended to make a
show of it.
"How is everything back there?!"
"Fine Duo. Wufei is still sleeping!"
"Good"
They had been worried that the pilot of Altron would awake during
the trip. Duo finally stopped and soon a staircase was placed for
them to climb back to earth. Everything happened quite fast and
they were glad for it, all they wanted was to go back to the
mansion and leave Wufei in his room to rest so they could do the
same.
The ride to the mansion was fast and when they got there Noin and
Sally were waiting for them. Sally guided the doctors towards
Wufei's room. Noin asked them how everything had gone and once
Heero had briefed her they all left to take a good rest. Noin
went back to her own room none of them noticed Sally's urgent
walk towards her office or when she left it the same way.
* * *
The young man was flying alone through the space. He had to be
careful because the freight he was carrying was precious. He set
the controls on autopilot while he went to check his load, it was
perfect. He secured it a little more and then went back to the
controls to re-enter the earth atmosphere.
The entrance was perfect and now he was heading towards the
airport where he knew someone was waiting for him. All he wanted
now was to go back to his house with his precious load and get a
well deserved rest. Soon he would have to confront them and would
have to give some explanations, but what he feared the most was
the moment he would have to face him.
Please, let everything I have been told be a lie
He was scared, and with right. The news he had got wasn't at all
good. But there was a small hope, the last time he could do
something and even when he didn't feel what he used to for the
one he had gone to see he still felt good that he could help and
that now that person was ok.
I may never forgive you for what you did... or tried to do.
But I had to do something, because you'll have to face the
consequences of your acts.
"As I will have to face mine"
He reached the airport and asked for permission to land. The
landing was soft so his load would be ok. Once he had stopped
completely he stood up and went to look for his load. Carefully
he took the handles and pushed the load towards the door of his
ship. There was a special stair with a platform to take the load
down from the plane. At the end of the stairs there was a woman
waiting. He walked down the stairs behind his freight and once he
reached the ground the woman approached him and extended her hand
to greet him.
"How are you?"
"I'm fine. How's everyone?"
"They're ok. They arrived just some hours ago and now are
resting... I can't believe this... I thought-"
"Like everyone else..."
They didn't say anything else and just went towards the car that
was waiting for them just some feet away from them. She sat in
the font and they put his load on the back seat, he sat besides
it and hen they left. The drive towards the house was silent.
Time to time he would look at his side and smile.
"You know that he'll want to kill you for this, right?"
He laughed softly.
"I know, but I didn't want to give false hopes. I wasn't
completely sure of it myself"
"Even thou. He'll have your skin"
He laughed a little louder.
"I'm looking forward for it"
"Pervert"
He just laughed and she smiled shaking her head. once they
arrived at the house, she took a remote and opened a door at a
side that wasn't supposed to be an entrance. She pulled the car
through it and then waited until it was closed. She then drove
following a hidden side of the house till she finally parked the
car in front of a back door she was sure no one knew about.
"What are you going to do first?"
"I think it would be better if we take a good rest first.
Then I guess I'll go to see him and the others"
"And?"
He didn't answer just pulled his load through the hall and toward
an elevator. He pushed the button to the third floor and they
waited. He still was smiling but it was obvious he was worried
and maybe even scared. She turned to look at him and smiled.
"Don't worry, you'll see how everything will be alright"
"You seem pretty confident"
"That's because I know what had been happening here"
He smiled back and then the doors of the lift opened, he pushed
his load out of it and then turned to her.
"I'll call you when I'm ready. Don't tell anyone I'm here
ok?"
"I know, you don't have to repeat it to me"
"Bye"
She nodded and he left pushing his load through the large hall,
when he reached the end of it he opened the big doors and pushed
the freight into it, he waved his hand to her and then closed the
doors.
"Don't worry my friend... everything will be alright"
* * *
Duo woke up suddenly, he'd had a really weird dream or what he
really hoped it was a dream. Heero was looking at him from above
his head and was frowning.
"Duo? Are you ok?"
"I don't know... I had this weird dream-"
"About your other half?"
"How did you know?"
"You mentioned his name in your dream and then I felt your
body getting quite cold"
Duo's eyes opened wide.
"Oh God... then it wasn't a dream. It happened"
Heero was worried now.
"Duo what happened?"
"I think... I think we should go and pay Relena a visit"
"Duo..."
Duo was nervous and it was obvious he was really worried.
"I'll tell you after we had gone to see her"
Heero sighed.
"Ok, but I'm going against my will. Just to let you know"
"I'm sorry love, but this is really important for me"
"And that's why I'm doing it"
Heero embraced his amethyst-eyed lover and kissed him softly. Duo
yawned and laughed apologetically.
"Except for the dream I really had a good rest.
Lest go see how's Wu-man?"
"You will never stop calling him names, won't you?"
"Nope!"
He said while jumping from the bed and heading to the bathroom.
Heero went to the closet and took some clean clothes for him and
Duo and then went to join his lover in the shower.
* * *
Quatre had already woke up and was now in the kitchen making
something light for Wufei to eat. He could have asked the chef to
do it, but he really wanted to do it himself. Besides after all
the time he spent cooking for the others when they had to stay
together in a safe house, he actually liked doing it. Quatre took
some instant chicken soup and had already some chicken breasts
boiling. Wufei had been eating nothing and his only source of
vitamins and other essentials was the IV, so he couldn't eat
anything heavy.
"Quatre, here you are"
Quatre turned his head to see his lover leaning on a wall.
"I didn't want to wake you up, but I thought it would be
good for Wufei to eat something instead of keeping that damned IV
stuck in his arm"
"I know. He's too thin and if he continues like that he
wouldn't be able to move at all soon"
"That's why I'm cooking. Would you like to help me?"
"Always"
Trowa lifted himself from the wall and started to help Quatre
preparing the food.
* * *
Wufei woke up slowly and focused his eyes. At first he felt
scared of not knowing where he was but then he remembered about
the other four pilots bringing him back to earth. He turned his
head to one side and noticed the IV still attached to his inner
arm. He lifted his other hand slowly and tugged at the plastic
tube that went from his arm to the serum bag, after a few tugs it
eased from his arm leaving a small trace of blood that came from
the place he had the needle inserted.
He sighed and turned his head to the other side. There was a
glass of water and a clock. He saw the hour and almost winced, he
hated to wake up at hours he wasn't used to be sleeping at all.
It was 4:00 p.m.
"Kisama..."
He let his head rest once again over the pillow looking at the
ceiling.
I am so weak. I failed everyone; I couldn't even control a
stupid system and now...
He wanted to cry, but the last remains of pride that he still had
inside didn't let him. Besides he felt that he didn't have more
tears to shed anymore
* * *
Duo left the bathroom with his hair completely dry and braided.
He saw his lover on the bed reading the report Master O had given
him and by the way he was frowning and had his lips pressed it
was obvious there wasn't any good news.
"Hee-chan? What said the report?"
"That fucking man found Wufei not long after the battle had
finished. That was three weeks ago!"
Duo took seat in front of Heero and took the report in his hands.
"Did he write why we weren't informed before?"
"Wufei's condition was complicated and he knew we would want
to take him back with us. Wufei's condition wasn't the best at
the moment to being moved form there... Yes! We would have wanted
to bring him back with us, but we're not idiots!"
Duo took the other's hand and looked at him in the eyes.
"I know Heero, but he thought he was doing the best for our
friend. All we have to worry about now is how to make him get
better and find Zechs as fast as we can"
"Zechs... I don't know if Wufei will want to see him"
"Personally, I think they need to be together. Heero they
love each other, what happened was something no one could have
predicted. If he's left alone he'll try to..."
"I know Duo... I know"
They fell silent. Duo was looking at the report on the bed, as if
could answer his questions. As if could make Treize be alive
again.
* * *
Quatre had already finished cooking and he and Trowa walked
towards Wufei's room. Trowa slowly opened the door and let Quatre
enter it with the tray in his hands. Wufei noticed the door
opening and turned his head to see who it was, when he saw his
friends he smiled weakly.
"I brought you some solid food. I think you should start to
make your stomach getting used to food again"
"Thank you"
They noticed the hanging IV needle at the side of the bed and
then the already dry blood on Wufei's inner arm. Trowa went
towards the bed and took the serum bag and the large iron hanger
the bag was hanging from, away from the bed. Quatre on the other
hand had placed the tray over a desk and went to re-arrange the
pillows so Wufei could be in a better position to eat. Once the
Chinese pilot was ready he took the tray and placed it over
Wufei's stretched legs. All of this happened without a word being
said.
They wouldn't push Wufei to talk to them, he would do it when he
felt ready. But the silence hurt the blonde Arabian and Trowa was
well aware of it. He approached his lover and placed his arm over
Quatre's shoulders. Wufei had taken the spoon and was looking at
his soup as if the liquid would talk to him, he felt hungry but
at the same time he didn't felt like eating at all. His grip on
the spoon handle tightened and he closed his eyes.
He thought there was no more tears to shed, but he could feel the
salty drops going down his chin.
"I thought I had shed all of them. I thought I wouldn't be
able to cry ever again... I promised to never do it again. Once
again I failed. Tell me Quatre, how a man can keep living after
he had destroyed one of the things he couldn't live without, how
a man can keep breathing after he had lost his honor and his
strength?"
Quatre couldn't help it, he started to cry too. Trowa didn't know
what to say. The room fell silent again, only the soft sobs of
Quatre could be heard from time to time.
For them it had felt like hours but it had been just 20 minutes
later that they heard a knock on the door. Trowa reluctantly
parted from Quatre to go and open the door. Heero and Duo were at
the other side and just one look at Trowa's face told them all
they need to know. They entered the room quietly and approached
the bed where their friend lay with a tray over his legs and a
plate full of soup and untouched.
"Hey, Fei-Fei..."
Wufei wanted to glare at his friend but he didn't have strength
to do even that. Hero just stood there with his face no showing
any kind of emotion but inside he felt rage. Rage because of the
damned system, rage because he hadn't been alert during the
battle, rage because he knew he couldn't have done anything
anyway and rage because he didn't know what to do now.
Duo kneeled at Wufei's side and took the spoon from the hand that
seemed to be grasping it like a lifeline. He left the spoon at
one side of the plate and took Wufei's hand in his.
"How are you feeling? Physically I mean"
Wufei turned his face to Duo and tried to smile once again, like
he had done with Quatre and Trowa when they entered the room
before... but he couldn't.
"I don't know... I think my body is ok now... but-"
"But you feel like if all of your senses had been taken away"
Wufei looked at him wide eyed, or as wide as he could get his
eyes open.
"How-"
"Because I felt the same once... I felt I was worthless,
that I didn't have the right to be alive. I had seen all those
who had been important to me die in front of me and I couldn't do
anything to stop it. I couldn't understand why I was still alive
when all of them had died..."
"And you felt like dying too... because you couldn't accept
a life without them... Am I right?"
"Yes, but you know what Fei-Fei? I decided to live and
avenge them and made of that my purpose on the war. As you did
with justice. I closed all my senses and decided to be death, who
don't feel anything, no pain, no love, no hate... but I failed,
because even when I was Shinigami I was still human and as one I
could feel and somehow that acceptance made me even stronger... I
think I know what you think you lost on the battle field, but
you're wrong you know?"
Wufei didn't noticed it, but he was getting stronger. He had
forgot why he was feeling so weak physically, and that was
because of Duo's words. He had always respected the pilot, but he
too had always thought that they didn't have too much in common.
He tilted his face to one side.
"What do you mean?"
"No one, who can stand in front of his enemy and fight till
the end can be weak my friend. No one who is capable to follow
his own believes so hard that he would confront even those close
to him can be weak. You, together with Heero, Quatre and Trowa
are the stronger people I've known. Wufei, for people like us
life is not easy and will never be, but we survived a war and won.
That means there's a lot of things for us to do and even if it
seems hard to do and that sometimes life itself is against us
we'll be able to keep going on... and you know why? That's
because-"
"We are strong..."
Duo smiled.
"Exactly"
Wufei took the tray off his legs and placed it at his side on the
bed; he then leaned forward and embraced Duo. It was the first
time Wufei had even touched him and he felt like something of
extremely big value was given to him. He embraced him back.
"Thank you..."
"It's ok Fei-Fei... Now, please take that tray and start
eating. I can recognize Quatre's meals from over a mile and I
know how good he cooks. You really need to gain some weight"
"Shut up Maxwell"
Duo smiled wider.
"Now that's the spirit!"
Wufei smiled and started to eat for all of their relief,
especially for Quatre. He tasted the soup and had to agree with
Duo; Quatre definitely was an excellent cook.
* * *
The man woke up slowly and stretched himself on the bed. He stood
up and went to the bathroom, not before he looked at his side to
see if there was everything alright. He smiled at the view and
then walked into the bathroom to take a good shower and then go
for some breakfast.
He was just about to open the door when he heard a knock from the
other side. He opened the door just to find his friend at the
other side with a tray full of food.
"I thought you would be hungry"
"Thank you"
He made her go inside; she placed the tray over a desk and turned
to look at him.
"How are you feeling?"
"Fine"
"When are you going to inform them?"
"Soon I guess... I'm scared"
"That's strange coming from you"
He laughed.
"This is not a war. This is different and you know it"
"Yes I know... but I know too that usually the heart is
stronger than the mind"
"You are a very wise woman"
"I know"
"And amazingly humble too"
She was the laughing one now.
"If anything goes wrong... please promise me that you will
take care of him?"
"Always..."
* * *
"I can't eat more..."
"That understandable. You haven't been eating since a long
time. Your stomach has to get used to it"
Duo took the tray from Wufei's legs and placed it on the desk
again.
"I want to take a walk... I'm sick of being in this bed all
the time"
"You have been in this bed just for a few hours"
"You know what I mean Maxwell"
Quatre looked worried. Wufei, even when he was physically
recovered, was still weak and he was sure his legs wouldn't be up
for a walk.
"You shouldn't strain yourself too much Wufei"
"I know, but I can't stay here anymore. Besides the best way
to recover all my strength is making exercise"
Quatre still looked reluctantly. Heero decided to take the matter
in his own hands.
"I agree with you Wufei, but I too agree with Quatre. So
I'll be monitoring your exercises, that way you won't strain
yourself but you'll be working your muscles anyway"
"And correctly. If I may add"
They looked at Duo and this one smiled.
"We've been training together and I discovered that most of
my exercises were wrong"
Quatre looked at Heero and then nodded.
"Ok then"
Trowa looked at his watch and then at Quatre.
"I have to go now. I still haven't finished with the alarms
at the pool"
"And I have to check some reports with Sally"
They waved good bye and left the room, so now there was only
Heero, Duo and Wufei in the room.
"Do you want to start right now? There's a gym we can use
whenever we want"
Wufei nodded.
"The sooner the better. Let me get changed and then we can
go"
Duo helped his friend to stand up from the bed and go to the
bathroom. He then went to get a pair of sweatpants, a T-shirt and
a pair of boxers and went back tot he bathroom again.
"Tell me when you're ready"
Once again Wufei nodded and Duo left the bathroom. Just a minutes
later Wufei called him and using him and Heero for support they
left the room and walked slowly towards the gym. Once there,
Heero let Duo take hold of their friend and he went for a soft
bunk mattress and placed it on the floor. Duo took Wufei and
helped him to lay over it.
"First we'll work the muscles of your legs without any kind
of extra weight. I'll take one leg and fold it at the knee and
push ok? If you feel any kind of pain tell me"
"Ok"
Heero carefully took the right leg and raised it and then he
pushed softly. Wufei didn't even flinch and Heero nodded. He then
took the other and did the same movement. Once again there was no
complain.
"I think you'll recover faster than you think Wufei. Now
raise your legs and do as if you were riding a bicycle. Do it
slowly and support your hips with your hands"
Wufei did as he was told and started moving his legs. He hadn't
repeated the movement even four times when he felt his legs tired
and let them rest on the bunk mattress again.
"I feel as if I had heavy weights on my ankles"
"Ok then... I'll hold your ankles to diminish the weight but
you have to do the movements"
Once again Wufei raised his legs, but this time Heero took hold
of his ankles and he started to move them again. They didn't felt
that heavy now and he could do repeat the moment non-stop. Then
Heero made him sit and spread his legs as wide as he could and
Duo pushed him forward. They made him stay like that for almost
three whole minutes and it would have been more if the Chinese
hadn't muttered complain about feeling like being ripped in two.
The two hours that followed were very productive and Heero told
him that if he kept that way he would be in perfect shape in a
month.
"Thank you guys"
"Nah, it's ok Wu-man. I know it'll sound estrange but I
really do miss our fights and you chasing after me because of my
pranks"
Duo laughed happily and soon Heero and Wufei followed. Then Wufei
smirked and looked at Duo.
"Be careful with what you wish my friend, you may regret it
later"

I must say that I don't know that much about physical treatments,
so please forgive me if there's something wrong.

-Please, send me a mail to perjill@hotmail.com and tell me what
did you find it was wrong. I'm not asking you to be my beta. I
just want to know what you could have find wrong when I couldn't.
My grammar is pretty good and that have been recognized even for
my teachers.
-There's two things people must consider: 1) sometimes even if
you check your fic a lot of times before posting, there's things
you didn't notice were wrong, and when you notice them you
usually already posted the fic 2) Mother language ALWAYS affect
the way you write. No matter how good you are at English, the
only way to get rid of that is constantly read and talk in
English, something I can't do here.
