Chapter 2: The Raid

Author�s
Notes: Thank you to everyone who has reviewed this story. I was surprised since
I only had one chapter and it wasn�t very long, but quite a few people seem to
like it. There is one more chapter after this one that had been prewritten,
which will probably come out either tonight or tomorrow. Relena makes her
appearance here for no other reason than I need to get Heero and Duo out of the
house. You�ll see why in the next chapter. Another reason is that I love it
when Duo gets all pissy with her and lacks self confidence, I think it�s funny because he�s cuter than her,
but doesn�t realize that. That and it�s fun to bash the pink princess. I mean,
when you compare her to characters like Sally and Noin,
she kind of falls flat. Actually, Sally and Dorothy are
the only female characters that aren�t motivated by boys they like. How
annoying is that?! Relena stalks Heero (she gets better later on, but still), Hilde risks her life for Duo, Catherine only cares about
Trowa�s protection, Une gets MPD and risks her life for Treize, and Noin goes through hell for Zechs. While Sally does help out
Wufei that one time, her actions are not solely motivated for Wufei�s sake. And
when he leaves her by herself, she doesn�t get all weepy. ^^ I like Sally. She�s
cute and she can aim! See, Relena, that�s how you shoot people! I like Dorothy,
too, though she�s kind of crazy and has weird eyebrows. I like Hilde, too, I just think that she�s going out of her way to
impress Duo at times (she buys the boy�s groceries, c�mon, Duo! Get your own �Tabasco
Sauce�). For those of you that don�t understand that joke, it was really a
bottle of alcohol that Duo was drinking because he was depressed, but since he�s
only fifteen in the series, cartoon network turned it
into Tabasco Sauce. So, you have this angsty scene
where Duo is guzzling Tabasco Sauce. C�mon, CN, at least make it apple juice or
something! Sigh. I also like Une and Noin, though Noin kind of got on my nerves in the second season with her
chasing after Zechs and trying to be by his side even though he was trying to
destroy the earth. Taking into account the manga, my
favorites are tied with Meiran and Sally. Go, Meiran! You kick Fei-fei�s
misogynistic ass! I like Sister Helen, too, but she didn�t really understand
Duo and tried a bit too hard to turn him into a �proper� child. Hmm, there�s
also Midii Une, but I didn�t see enough of her to get
a proper feel for her character. Yeah, that�s enough of my rant about women
characters in Gundam Wing, I think.

�� This was the longest that they had ever been cooped up in
one place together, all by themselves, and Duo could not yet label it as bad or
good. It was nice being with Heero, but it was also very nerve wracking, the
boy he was in love with being next door to him. They shared the same bathroom,
ate meals together, watched TV together. If Duo squinted hard enough, he could
make himself believe that there was no war going on outside their little house,
they were just two best friends hanging out together. Of course, for that to
work, he would have to ignore the reason why they were in this house to begin
with: OZ. Their last mission had been a success, but they had almost gotten
caught and that near capture had fueled OZ�s blood
and they were looking for them frantically now, practically foaming at the
mouth. Duo wondered how long they were going to be here for, weeks, months? He wanted to get back into the action, but it was
also kind of nice to just relax, especially after all of the missions he had
taken lately. It had been a constant barrage, one after the other, and it had
worn at him. But now, after five days of relaxing and just enjoying life, he
was all better, he just wished he had something to do so he could keep himself
from staring at Heero�s butt. It was a nice butt, hence the staring, but the
last thing he wanted was for Heero to know that he had been looking. It had
nothing to do with the fact that they were soldiers and weren�t supposed to
create attachments like love; and he was sure by now that it wasn�t just lust
and friendship, he knew that Quatre and Trowa were together, it was the fact
that he had a hard time reading Heero. One minute he was going out of his way
for that Relena girl, then the next he was cursing her name to anyone that
would listen. Love was a complex emotion, perhaps that was just Heero�s way of
dealing with his feelings for her, or, Duo kept his fingers crossed, he really
was annoyed with her.

�� As the days went on, Duo found himself watching his partner
more and more closely. After three days of this, Duo started to pick up little
things about Heero that were different. But, he had to wonder, was there
something wrong with Heero or had he just never noticed those things before?
For one, there was the smell. Heero had always smelled earthy, like moss or
grass along with the slight smell of gunpowder, but now Duo smelled something
else underneath it, something strong and deadly. Heero smelled like Trowa did
after working at the circus with the animals. It was a feral, musky smell and
Duo couldn�t figure out if it had always been there or something was going on.
That smell bothered him deep inside, but he couldn�t figure out why. Then,
there was Heero�s appetite. Duo had always made sure that there was plenty of
meat in the house since it was the one thing in the colonies that was hard to
find, but here on earth it was everywhere and Duo never wanted to get used to
that anymore than he could get used to the fact that earth was almost
completely covered in water. The other weird thing was that Heero would lock
himself in his room at night. Duo couldn�t remember if Heero had always done
that, but now it was pretty obvious. At first he thought that Heero was being
paranoid or that he was avoiding him, but after last night, Duo began to worry.
As the sun had start to set, Duo had begun to pace. He had to figure things out
or he would go insane. Then there was the phone call the night before that that
Heero somehow hadn�t heard. Heero was the perfect soldier, how could he have
not heard a telephone ring? Yet, if Heero had heard it, he didn�t ask Duo about
it and that, itself, was very out of character for him. So, Duo, never being a
patient person, and especially never being able to simply let a problem go
without resolving it, had stormed up to Heero�s room. For whatever reason,
Heero had not locked the door that night and what Duo had seen scared him
still, right down to the bone.

�� Duo shuddered. There were hundreds of things that he had
thought he would see when he had gone through that door, but his partner and
secret love sitting on the floor with a needle in his arm that was filled with
some unknown sinister liquid, was not one of them. In that moment, Duo had
wanted to scream and rant at Heero about drugs. Fuck! He had lived through the
horrors of the streets, he knew exactly what that shit did to people, and here
he had found the person that he loved and looked up to doing it?! But, though
the furious words and memories flashed through Duo�s mind, he was frozen, he
couldn�t do anything. His memories swirled in his head, scenes of prostitutes
doped up so badly they could barely stand, homeless men puking up their guts,
little kids turned whores by pimps who had injected them with heroine just to
make them slaves, the same pimps coming after Duo, but not being quite as fast
as he had been, G injecting some terrible serum into his neck that made
everything burn and made him scream�

�� Duo shuddered again. He had wanted to be mad at Heero, to
hate him and cuss him out, but mostly he was just worried, and a little bit
betrayed. Heero had told him they were vitamins, but Duo wasn�t sure that he
wanted to believe that, yet he had let it go, giving Heero the benefit of the
doubt, even when he had desperately wanted to interrogate him further. He
wanted to contact J and ask him is he knew that his prot�g�e
was doing drugs or if they really were vitamins. But, if J knew that Duo was
suspicious of his perfect soldier, G might get involved and that was the last
thing that Duo wanted. So, instead, here he was sulking in his room, thinking
about the phone call, Heero, his hormones, and the drugs. He didn�t know what
to do. He supposed he could steal some of what Heero had been injecting himself
with and test it. He had a kit just for that in his bag for when one of them
got captured and they had to know what drugs had been administered, but that
would mean going behind Heero�s back and invading his privacy. He just couldn�t
do that�

�� There also was the matter of the phone call and his guilt.
He had tried to avoid Heero after last night, because every time he saw him, he
wanted to confess, but Heero seemed to be stalking him, because whenever he
tried to get away, Heero would be right there. If he had been taking drugs,
maybe he was worried that Duo would tell his controller? Duo debated about
whether or not he should tell Heero that Relena had called for him and Duo had
hung up on her, but in the end, he was just too selfish. What if Heero got mad
for, not only not telling him she had called, but hanging up on her? He never wanted
to be the source of Heero�s animosity. Besides, Duo didn�t want to deal with
Relena, either. There was no one on the earth that made him feel like trash
like Relena Darlian-Peacecraft. It was absurd! He was a Gundam Pilot where so
many twice his age had failed G�s stupid tests, he had survived the streets and
the plague and even the bombing of Maxwell church and his time in jail after
that. Yet, whenever she was around, he felt like once more like that little,
lonely kid in school with hand me down clothes, being teased for being poor, unadoptable, and smelling like a sewer. His mind tallied
all the things about her that were better than him. She was pretty, the epitome
of the perfect girl; sweet, kind, blonde with blue eyes, she was rich and
everyone loved her, Heero was always protecting her and seemed incapable of
killing her, and, best of all, she was human. His mind tried to counter.

Solo said I was pretty.

Heero�s tried to kill me a couple of times, yet here I
am.

But these were the only
things he could come up with. He realized that he still was that lonely little kid. He was a bit older and had a few more
scars, but he didn�t feel like he had changed at all. But, despite all these
facts, he still wanted to be with Heero. But, his feelings had no place in a
war. Quatre and Trowa had found each other, but that was different. Duo was a
tool, G had made that perfect clear, and tools didn�t deserve to fall in love.

�� There was something wrong with Duo. Heero didn�t need his
sensitive senses to see that. He was acting so meek, so unlike Duo. Duo was
strong, bold, and stubborn. Duo said that he may run and hide and never told a
lie, and he was certainly running away now. That sort of behavior was making
Heero feel edgy. He followed Duo around, hoping to find some clue as to why Duo
was acting so strange, but he couldn�t figure it out. Was it because of last
night? He knew that Duo wouldn�t be placated by his answer, and it had meant a
lot to Heero that he hadn�t pried like a lot of other people would have. Still,
the last thing that he wanted was to lose Duo�s respect. But, it wasn�t like he
could say: no, they aren�t vitamins, but if I don�t take them, I turn into a
terrible beast at the full moon. Anyone else would laugh at him or call him
crazy. Duo would think that he was being teased and would shut himself off even
further. Why did this caring thing have to be so goddamn hard?

�� Dinner came and Duo�s behavior hadn�t changed. It hadn�t
even been twenty four hours since Duo had found out about the drugs and had
started to act this way, but it was already driving Heero crazy. Duo was acting
like he had to walk on eggshells around Heero and he hated that. Duo tenderly
took Heero�s plate from him and that one, tentative move broke Heero. He had
had enough. Duo was doing the dishes without being asked, something that he
would always jokingly complain about. Heero knew that Duo would never shirk his
duties and that he put on a �woe is me� front for laughs, but Duo didn�t
complain this time. Since it was just the two of them, it took Duo no time at
all to finish the dishes and he left for the living room and sat down on the
couch in front of the TV. Heero stalked him and stood in front of Duo, slamming
his hands down on the coffee table. Duo jumped, so lost in his thoughts that he
hadn�t even noticed Heero following him.

�� What the fuck is the matter with you?!� he demanded. Duo
bit his lip.

�� Don�t be mad, ok?� Duo insisted. Heero just stared at him.
Duo couldn�t believe that he was actually going to admit to this, but he never
should have hid it in the first place.

�� Why would I be mad?� Heero thought, perplexed, he doubted
that Duo could do anything that could get him mad. They had argued at times,
but the fear in Duo�s eyes was for something different, Heero could tell. Did
he think that he was going to hit him? No matter how angry Heero was, he would
never hit the long haired boy. �Is that look in his eyes purely fear or is it guilt as well? Is that why he�s been avoiding
me, because he�s guilty of something?�

�� It was just like Duo to run and hide because of his own
conscience.

�� Relena called you. She wanted to see you,� Duo admitted.
Heero had to struggle to keep from smirking. Only Duo could feel so guilty over
something so little.

�� I know how much you like her,� Duo said.

�� Do I, do I really? I seems the
most logical conclusion, but I can�t presume to know anything about their
relationship. It�s none of my business if Heero is in love with her! But I wish
it was��

�� But I- I hung up on her. I�m sorry,� Duo apologized. Heero
swore internally. Oh, he was mad alright, he was mad that Relena had gotten
their phone number. How the hell had she found them again? She was putting
himself and, more importantly, Duo, in danger! Her continued existence was
becoming more bothersome than her death. Not only had she found them and made a
call using a public line, she had upset Duo. Heero wasn�t an idiot,
he knew that there was something about the girl that made him uncomfortable.
Heero knew very little about Duo�s past, but he did know that Duo was very self
conscious and didn�t come from a rich family, so that was probably one of the
reasons why he didn�t like being around her. Relena had a way of putting people
down just by her mere presence.

�� I know you hate her.�

�� Duo looked up at him in surprise.

�� Yes,� Duo said, ashamed.

�� I don�t like her,� Heero assured him, �I tolerate her,
there�s a difference, but I can see how you could come to that conclusion. I�m
not mad at you for hanging up on her. It was a smart thing to do. Hopefully, no
one managed to trace her call. She�s endangered this team too many times
already.�

�� Duo seemed less troubled by Heero�s confession and
brightened.

�� So, he doesn�t like her, either! It doesn�t mean that he
likes me like that, or any guy at all, but it�s something! And he�s right,
Relena claims that she loves him, but she continues to put Heero in danger! If
she really loved him, she�d stay away. But� if I was in her
position� would I be able to stay away from Heero?�

�� Duo thought about that. Would he be able to trade his
happiness for Heero�s safety?

�� Yes. In comparison to Heero�s safety, my feelings are irrelevant.
But, I guess I�m a hypocrite, I mean, I�m putting him in danger just by being
here!�

�� Heero watched as the tension that Duo had been displaying
started to disappear and he sighed in relief. At least that was over. He never
would have guessed that it was because of Relena instead of the drugs.

�� He�s such a baka,� Heero thought
in amusement.

�� But he�s my baka,� the animal growled protectively, �he�s mine, my
mate, and if anyone ever hurts him, I�ll tear their throats out!�

�� The full moon had ended last night and now it had started
to wane by mere inches. Still, Duo looked up at it in trepidation. He sighed
and slipped into bed. It would be fine. The full moon was gone and the pain
wouldn�t be back until the next one. Still, the nights were dangerous, but he
had at least some self control.

�� Behave, behave, behave�� he begged the beast silently as
he fell asleep.

�� Heero waited until for Duo to fall asleep. It was his sense
of smell that was the most powerful. Odin had told him that when it came to
smell and stamina, wolves were the best of the shape shifters, but compared to
cats, they weren�t quite as good with sight, hearing, and speed, but compared
to humans� well there was very little to compare there. A cat would be able to
hear Duo�s heartbeat from where Heero stood on the other side of the door, but
Heero could only hear his breathing and used that to judge when the boy had
fallen asleep. When he was sure that Duo was long gone, he finally could
partake in his favorite night time activity: Duo watching.

�� There are many sides to people and one of them is the side
they show in sleep. This was true of Duo, Heero thought, the boy was so hard
and stubborn when he was awake, but when he was asleep and relaxed, Heero could
look at him without fear and if he looked closely, he could see the child that
Duo had been. Heero was sure that the others knew what he did at night, but as
long as Duo never found out, he didn�t care. This was the only time of day that
he could really watch the one he loved; there was that word again, yet he
couldn�t exactly bring himself to call it simply lust, without fear of being
caught. One of these days, he thought, he would have the courage to not just
look, but run a hand through Duo�s hair and see if it was as soft as it looked.
Suddenly, Heero heard someone knocking on the door and Duo jerked in his sleep.
Heero growled. Thankfully, Duo didn�t seem to wake up fully.

�� Someone was in their territory. Someone needed to die.
Heero prided himself on his sense of smell, so he should have recognized the
person�s scent as he raced down the steps. He didn�t want the person�s knocking
to wake Duo up. The thought was absurd, someone had found them and needed to be
neutralized and he was worrying about disrupting Duo�s sleep. Still, as he
reached the door, he was too consumed in his anger to recognize the scent. By
the time it came to him, he had already opened the door and been assaulted, not
only by the person�s pink clad form, but the perfume the girl was wearing, far
too thick for Heero�s senses and struggled not to sneeze.

�� Heero!� Relena cried happily,
wrapping herself around him. He wanted to tell her to shut up,
didn�t she know that Duo was sleeping?!

�� Relena�,� he growled. She just smiled, not realizing how
close he was to whipping out his gun and shooting her between the eyes. He
should, really. J had ordered him not to hurt her, but giving the
circumstances, he was sure that his controller would forgive him.

�� Do you have any idea what time it is?!� he snarled,
realizing that it was the only thing he get out that didn�t sound like an
animal snarling at a threat.

�� Oh, I know it�s rather late, but I really wanted to see
you. It took me so long to find you again and when I did� oh, I missed you so
much! Then that Duo person hung up on me! I was worried that something had
happened to you! I must lecture him on proper telephone manners!� she said,
obviously upset as she realized that Duo had hung up on her and Heero had been
here all along.

�� Relena, leave,� Heero commanded, but she only hugged him
tighter. He wondered if she was being deliberately ignorant.

�� Duo awoke suddenly, but he couldn�t figure out why. He had
been dreaming, about what he couldn�t remember, but Heero had definitely been
in it and it had been pleasant. Something was wrong, really, really wrong.
Then, he heard it; a deep humming noise, almost like a low vibration, but it
was coming from outside� he quickly pulled on some clothes and ran to the window,
opening it and peaked his head out. As his eyes
focused and he looked out into the pitch blackness, his pupils narrowed into
slits and he swore.

�� Heero was about to bodily throw Relena out of the house
when Duo came running down the stairs, his and Heero�s bags slung over his
shoulders.

�� Heero!� Duo yelled, frantic,
shoving Heero�s bag at him. Relena was surprised by Duo�s entrance and backed
away from Heero.

�� OZ has found us!� Duo explained. Heero swore. If Duo knew about it, then that meant that a mobile suit had
tripped the perimeter and was only a few minutes away from descending on them.
If Duo hadn�t noticed it, it would have been too late to escape.

�� Duo noticed Relena.

�� You!�
Duo snarled. Relena backed away in fear at the fury in his violet eyes. Heero
glared at her. That� bitch� had brought them here! Now thanks to her, Duo was
in danger! Hell, if it weren�t for Duo, they would have been captured. Heero
made a grab for Relena. That was it, the bitch was
going to die! No one put his pack in danger, no one!

�� Heero stopped as Duo put an hand
on his arm.

�� Heero, there�s no time!� Duo snapped. �We have to go or we�ll
never get the shuttle off the ground.��

�� Heero backed off, wanting to smack himself. Of course,
their Gundams were with Quatre, they were only going
to get out of here by the shuttle they had gotten here on and that took several
minutes to get into the air. They weren�t going to make it! Heero grabbed Duo�s
arm and started to drag him out of the house, but Relena grabbed onto him.

�� Heero, tell me what�s going on!�

�� Bitch!� he snapped and pushed her. She fell down and
looked up at him, sobbing hysterically.

�� Heero�� she said mournfully.

�� You led them here!� he snarled, �you
could have killed us!�

�� You could have killed Duo!�

�� He raised his hand to hit her, but Duo stopped him again.

�� Heero, she�s not worth it.�

�� Heero nodded, his fury subdued by the soft, yet firm touch
on his arm. Instead, he reached down and pinched the back of her neck, causing
her to faint in a limp heap.

�� Heero, we can�t leave her!� Duo said, realizing what Heero
was planning.

�� Sure we can,� Heero muttered, in awe of Duo�s kindness
towards a girl that he hated, �we don�t have time, Duo and OZ wouldn�t dare
kill her.�

�� Duo bit his lip, but let Heero drag him out of the house,
his desire to protect those that were weaker than himself stung at him, but Relena�s actions and the sound of mobile suits in his
sensitive ears made it a bit easier to leave her there.

End of chapter 2

By now it should be obvious
what Duo is (see second part of title) and before people start e-mailing me
saying that Duo being a fellow shape shifter doesn�t make sense because he
seemed shocked at Heero�s shot and if he was a shape shifter, he would need
that serum to not transform as well, don�t worry, it does make sense, just wait
for me to explain it.
