The five Gundam
boys snuck into an OZ base to get important documents on the mobile dolls.
The got the documents
onto one of Heero's computer disks and started to run toward the entrance.
They were almost halfway there, with no guards in sight, when Heero stopped
running.
Quatre looked
at him, "What's wrong, Heero?"
Heero looked
around for a moment, "The baka's missing."
Trowa looked
worried, "Let's go after him."
They turned around
and ran deeper and deeper into the base to find Duo. Duo had gone
the furthest into the base. He had to make sure that the guards didn't
harm his friends.
On a bench dyed in twilight
Is an abandoned doll
"If you lose your dreams everything's over",
Murmured someone
They continued
to run into the depths of the base, each corner they turned, they ended
up fighting off a majority of the guards that were left.
'I hope you're
alive, baka,' Heero thought.
As they turned
the next corner, Quatre tripped over his own feet and fell to the floor.
They stopped
and turned around. Trowa ran over to his best friend, "Are you alright?"
Quatre began
to rub his ankle, "Leave me here and go find Duo."
Wufei walked
over to them, "We'll do no such thing. It would be unjust to leave you
here."
Trowa knelt down,
"Can you stand up?"
Quatre shook
his head, "My ankle hurts too much."
Trowa picked
up the injured blond, "Let's go find Duo."
Sure enough,
around the next corner was Duo, laying on the floor in a pool of blood.
Heero and Wufei ran over the long-haired pilot and knelt down beside him.
Heero picked
up Duo's upper body, "Come on, baka, wake up! Wake up!"
He shook him
a bit, "Damn baka, wake up!"
Wufei checked
Duo's pulse, "Stop shaking him, Yuy. He has no pulse and he's not
breathing. He's gone."
Heero picked
up Duo's body and looked at him, 'Damn you, baka'
"Let's go."
They headed for
the exit.
Only wish
Suddenly from the bottom of my consciousness
It's only life
The feelings that fire my passion
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
It had been three
days since the mission. Heero sat on a large windowsill, looked out
the window, and started at the clear blue sky, 'Why did you have to die,
baka?'
'This proves
that there is no God. If there really is a God, then I hate him because
he took you away from me!'
Sounds of faint
footsteps broke Heero's thought.
He looked over
to see Quatre limping into the room with Trowa right behind him, "Hey,
Quatre, how's your ankle?"
Quatre sighed,
"It hurts like Hell."
Heero stood up
and let Quatre take his seat.
Trowa put a pillow
under Quatre's foot, "Do you need anything else?"
"Can you get
me a glass of soda?"
Trowa smiled,
"Alright."
He killed Quatre
on the lips softly, "I'll be right back."
Trowa went into
the kitchen and Heero followed.
And now, fiercely, we can feel each other's bodies,
Each hidden pulse,
The passion I struggled for, the wings I embraced
Take off to the sky
Heero watched
Trowa hunt throught the fridge for a bottle of soda, "What's going on between
you and Quatre?"
Trowa looked
back at him, "After Duo died, I figured that any of us could die on these
missions. So I decided to come clean with Quatre and I told him how
I felt. It's hard, loving one of our own."
Heero sighed,
"Yes, it is. He was a Gundam Pilot, and a friend, and I'll miss him,
but life goes on."
Trowa looked
at him, "Where are you going now?"
"To pay my respects
to the baka."
He left for the
cemetary.
I have nowhere to return to
Just wandering through this town
Without being able to become gentle
Without even knowing what I believe
Heero stood in front of Duo's grave, "Damn baka! How could you
leave us like that? It's your fault Quatre twisted his ankle!
It's your fault that all of us are living in sorrow! It's your fault
you wound up dead! You're nothing but a baka!"
He fell to his knees, tears starting to stream down his face, "No,
I'm the baka. It was my plan that killed you. Now that you're
gone, I can't tell you how I feel or hold you in my arms like I wanted
to. But don't worry, I'll be with you shortly."
He pointed his gun to his head, "We'll be together forever, Duo-chan"
He pulled the trigger.
Only peace
Your steady calmness
It's only love
The cold past becoming warm
Quatre's eyes
went wide as he looked out the window.
Trowa put his
hand on Quatre's shoulder, "We're going to get Heero."
Quatre sighed,
"When you see Heero, just bury him next to Duo."
Trowa was confused,
"What?"
Quatre looked
at the sky, "It's what he wants. He wants to be buried next to Duo
Maxwell"
Wufei cocked
an eyebrow, "We're going after him to bring him back here."
"Think about
what I told you when you see Heero."
And now, tenderly, in my heart
We can share and comfort each deep sin
In this universe the future unwinds endlessly
Take off to the sky
Quatre continued
to look at the sky, "Heero, I hope you and Duo are happy now. I would
have done the same thing if it were Trowa. I just hope you are holding
Duo in your arms now, and you and Duo will live on with the Space Heart."
Quatre saw something
in the distance. All he could make out were two bat wings and two
metal angel wings. He just sat there and smiled, "Farewell, my eternal
friends"
The image in the distance
became clear. It was Heero and Duo in a loving embrace. They
were together at last.
And now, fiercely, we can feel each other's bodies,
Each hidden pulse,
The passion I struggled for, the wings I embraced
Take off to the sky
