INFORMATION
Duo is the happy-go-lucky type. He almost always seems to
be happy about something, and likes to look on the bright side. Although
he's friendly, he is an excellent fighter. He often comments that Heero's
insane. Duo is outgoing and cheerful. Duo also possesses a surprisingly
dry sense of humor, as well as a great deal of intelligence.
The first events we know about in Duo's life occured in AC 187,
when he appeared on the V08744 at L2, which was very poor. There was a
great deal of fighting in the colony, but Duo was not born on the colony;
rather, he drifted there. At that time, he didn't have a name, and he was
taken in by a kid named Solo, who led a group of orphans. Solo was infected
with a virus that was burning its way through the entire colony. Before
he died, Solo said to Duo "Even after I die, I'll always be with you." When
Solo died, Duo said, "Fine...if Solo's with me, we'll be Duo." Duo decided
to stay on as leader of the group in Solo's place.
(*wipes the drool* And to think...that is what I go to sleep under everynight
...I mean that picture...as in the poster it is from...as in..
Aw just forget it...)
One day, he took the orphans to a Federation base to steal food.
They were caught and managed to escape, but the people of the colony tore
down the abandoned building they had been living in. Maxwell Church took
all the orphans in. They fed them and gave them clothes. Sister Helen,
tried to cut Duo's long hair, but Duo refused to let her. So she braided
his hair for neatness, and Duo came to like the hair style. He said "Now
it won't get in the way when I steal stuff."
(*Thud* owie...It looks good on..but I'll give him a $100 to take it off..)
Duo and the other orphans were sent to a Federation-run school,
but the school accepted the kids for the purposes of brainwashing. Duo
constantly got into fights but he was the top student in his class. He
learned extremely quickly. The orphans that Duo had been with were
adopted out, but Duo never managed to find a permanent family; he always got
kicked out of the house in a day because he was such a trouble maker.
(ok..all together now. AAAAAWWWWWWWWW)
The next year, there was another uprising, turning the colony
into a battlefield once more. Maxwell church became a makeshift hospital.
One of the resistance leaders decided that they needed an MS (mobile suit)
. When Father Maxwell objected, they struck him with the butt of a rifle.
Also, they accused Duo of being a Federation spy, since he went to school
on the base. He told them that he would steal an MS for them if they would
just leave the church. They didn't believe him. All he had to say to that
was, "I may run, and I may hide, but I don't lie." Duo ran to
the Federation base. He had to run through gunfire, but he managed to
make it to a truck that had a Leo in it, and he drove it back to the church.
When he arrived, the church had been destroyed. He found Sister Helen
in the ruins. She said "The Federation forces attacked us, but we couldn't
leave this place." Duo replied, "It's my fault. I stole the Mobile Suit."
When she died it was the first time he had ever cried because of death.
(*rubs her hands* Duo in handcuffs...ah the possibilities are endless...)
It is unknown where Duo went after this or how he hooked up with
Doctor G. Duo was a stow-away on a ship that Doctor G was on. He was caught
but Doctor G allowed the boy to remain on the ship and gave him
Deathscythe to pilot. Duo was not happy when he found out the true purpose of
the Gundam. He set charges and attempted to blow Deathscythe up. Doctor G
disarmed the bombs before Duo attempted to detonate them. He then confronted
Duo and told the young pilot to steal Deathscythe and go to Earth to fulfill
the mission as Duo saw it.
