Bloody Tears

Chapter Seven

That's No Way to Say Hello!

Kagome sat on Duo's bed with her laptop in her lap. She had hacked into her mainframe on her Gundam so that she could use her search program. Duo came in the room as she typed away and noticed what bed she was on, giving a grin he moved behind her and started reading over her shoulder. Just to tick her off. All he saw was a bunch of history on the Peacecraft name, he knew some of it, but there were mentions of a prince and princess long thought dead. "I'm not easily annoyed, Duo."

Duo scoffed and fell backwards on his bed, "Do you not like your bed?"

"Ah, I like to be able to see everything that's around me, rather than with my back to anything. I like corners, this is a corner. I like this corner. That's only while alone though, I have no problem sleeping over there if I'm not all by myself. Is that weird?" She asked curiously.

Duo shook his head, "No, not weird. Seriously though, it's so hard to find someone I can play with. I mean, is it too much to ask for a friend who's easily irritated?"

"If we come across one of the others you can try annoying them. How's that sound?"

"Yeah, right...Sound's like I'll have to wait."

Kagome smiled and looked back at him, "You had better hurry. You have a mission, remember."

"Yeah, see ya later."

"Kay!" She watched him leave before returning to what she'd been reading. The Peacecraft family had two children, Relena and Milliardo Peacecraft, not much more was on the topic, but she stored what little information it gave her, in the back of her mind for future references. "The Peacecraft family was renowned for their standing in the Peace Alliance...if they were here..." Kagome frowned, "If Relena or Milliardo Peacecraft were alive, that would put a complete twist in this war...that would bring home Peace."

Shaking her head, Kagome continued looking up the other names on her list.

-x-x-x-

Duo sighed as he finished up his task. Looking curiously down at the radar on his control panel, he watched three dots appear in his spectrum. "They couldn't have known I'd be here!" It was annoying. He was about to park his Gundam and return to the ship, but now... "It won't take me long to get rid of these guys, I'll finish them off quickly."

He'd been out for nearly six hours, six hours! It was almost seven in the evening now, and he didn't like the idea of spending his entire time looking for suits and shipments to OZ to destroy. They had a surprisingly large number of shipment crates, and he had chosen to...invest in a couple things before destroying everything.

Once he saw the two suits below him, he realized they had been looking for something. "Well, I can't let you wander around my hideout all the same. It's time to do some pest control," Duo smirked and let his Gundam be seen with a blinding light and watched the mobile suits float back in their pilot's surprise. He was quick to get rid of the first one, but the second got in a good hit and knocked him back. 'Whiplash!' He chortled a little and dispatched the last of the two mobile pilots. "These new OZ mobile suits are pretty tough...hehe, but not tough enough." He heard an annoying alarm and realized it was a self-detonation warning.

"This must be what they were after...it's identical to mine, even the location of the self-detonation device. I guess one of the other pilots must be either, nearby...or already deceased." He stopped the self-detonation with his Gundam's scythe before grabbing the Gundam and moving it elsewhere. He had it set to rise up above the surface to take back to Howards, but he was going to have to wait a little first. When he finally got on land, he took a little walk to stretch his legs before heading to the site where the Gundam would rise from.

He started walking around when he heard talking from around the corner. Turning around, he saw a boy and a girl speaking to one another. 'He looks familiar.' He watched as he turned a gun on the girl. Pulling his out he moved closer to the two and listened.

"You're in over your head."

'He must be...no, I can't be sure, but...ah! It is, I remember his face. He is one of the pilots sent to destroy OZ, I should thank Kagome later for those files, but...hell, what was his name again!?'

"Say goodbye, Relena."

Duo shook his head and fired a shot, he knew, if this guy was as good as the file declared him, he'd probably only get hit in the shoulder, despite the fact that Duo had aimed specifically for his heart.

"Hey, lady...you need to leave."

"Heero~"

"Augh...who are you?"

'Ah, that's it! Heero Yuy!' He watched Persian blue eyes turn to face him and mentally cursed, 'I wonder if Kagome will be mad...' He shot at him again when he went for his gun. "Don't overdo it, remember you're injured."

"Stop it! What do you want to shoot him for?"

'Kagome's gonna kill me if I kill this guy...but more importantly than that...' He stared at the girl wrapping the injuries he'd caused with torn pieces of her blue dress. "Hey wait a minute," He shook his head and moved closer, "Great, how come I ended up as the bad guy here?" Looking to Heero he crouched down a little to look him in the eyes. "I'm not going to kill you; I'm here to help, despite what it may look like. So, let's make this easier for the both of us. The lady needs to leave though," He turned his gun to the girl, watching as her eyes widened. He wasn't holding his gun seriously at this point, somewhat disheartened at being labeled the bad guy while trying to help a damsel in distress,

"I thought you were trying to save me, now you're going to shoot me?"

"Heh, I don't like the idea of seeing innocent people die, but if you don't leave, I'll have no choice but to kill you. Go..."

A sound similar to a large gush of water falling from something high sounded and he watched the girls eyes turn; pulling a high power light stick from his pocket. "It made it to the surface already? I must have miscalculated the tide, damn!"

"What is that?"

He held it up and turned it on. She looked away as the light threatened to impair her vision. "Don't look lady, I'm sure you've got your reasons for being here, but you better just walk away. Save yourself a lot of grief." He watched Heero take off in a run and frowned, "You're injured, what the hell do you think you're doing?!"

Heero was already on the torpedoes when Duo yelled out at him, not taking the light out of the girls' eyes who still looked down to avoid being blinded. "It's my mobile suit!"

"What are you doing you fool!?" Duo didn't want to watch, as both Gundam's were shot back into the sea. "Nooo~!" He cursed once again in the back of his head before speaking on his thoughts, "Damn it! He didn't need to shoot down my Gundam in the process!" He glanced at the boy and then to the girl and sighed, "Take him to the nearest clinic, I'll drop by to save him from Military Questioning later, but you should at least get his wounds taken care of."

"What do you mean Military Questioning?"

Duo scoffed, "He's been shot twice, on a private Military Port, and just launched torpedoes, with supposedly no reason to do so...he'll be questioned." Duo made to leave and stopped suddenly, "Look, lady...I don't like leaving on the wrong note, so I'm sorry for the trouble we're causing you. You seem to like Heero, but it would be best...no, it would be safer...not only for you, but for him, if you left him alone." He said nothing else and left to find a ride back to his ship, settling with a high speed water ski boat that was on port. 'Kagome isn't going to be happy that I let some girl take him...'
