Chap 2 Unexpected Fear
{Quatre's POV}
`Sigh, Trowa can be so relaxing…' As I think about this a smile drifts over my face/ and someone decides to bang on our door.
“I swear if this is not an emergency someone is going to get shot.”
Trowa chuckles at this, only he realizes that I have a vindictive streak a mile wide. He doesn't even seem to care that his angel isn't so angel-like after all. I thought he would leave me for sure after the Zero incident but it didn't even faze him. Allah, I don't know what I did to deserve him.
Wufei had decided that it was dire enough and threw open the doors. And saw us in all our naked glory. But what was more important was the worry that he was emanating.
“Quatre, Quatre I need help, hurry.” When he finally realizes just what he is seeing he blushes and looks away. “I did not need to see that. I so did not need to see that.” I smirk trying to hold in a laugh as I get out of the bed and put some pants on.
“Serves you right for barging in here like that. Now what is the problem?”
"I don't have time to explain just come with me."
The worry that was evident in his voice was the last measure. Whatever was happening, it was an emergency that needed to be dealt with now
~@~
The worry that was coming off of Wufei in waves increased as we ran into the library.
When Wufei saw that Heero hadn't moved an inch the worry just increased another notch, there was something else there, something that I didn't want to contemplate.
{Wufei's POV}
Wufei was starting to get a really bad feeling about this, that this was the beginning of something very bad. He turned to explain to the other what had happened.
“… then he froze and he's been like this ever since, I… I'm starting to worry.”
Normal POV
When Quatre ran into the room he wanted to run right back out again. He felt sick to his stomach as he felt the waves of emotions coming from Heero. The fear, the panic, even pain. Heero didn't even realize that there were people in the room beside him, and what was worse was that Quatre couldn't even block him. He had never had to block Heero before so Quatre had never built up mental blocks against him. Quatre hadn't heard a word Wufei said. It was all he could do to keep conscious.
“He's trapped inside himself. It's horrible I have never seen someone like this before. What did you do?” Quatre asked in a horrified voice.
“I just said `For supposedly being perfect you sure are dense.' and then he froze.” Wufei replied. A little ticked that the smaller pilot hadn't been listening “I don't get it what happened?”
Finally Trowa spoke up. “Maybe we should call Dr. J.”
At this Heero whimpered. This shocked the boys, and Quatre rushed over to him, but when Quatre reached out to touch him Heero flinched. Quatre was shocked to say the least. When Heero flinched Quatre got a flash of a man standing over him fist raised for a blow.
Quatre came close to Heero but made sure he didn't touch him as he spoke. “Heero? Can you hear us, Heero?”
“I won't, retraining… I can't, no… help.”
The last word was sounded with so much pain and despair that Quatre started crying. Trowa's calm voice interjected.
“He's panicking we need to do something.”
Wufei thought of something and realized that Duo was not there.
“Go get Duo. He knows Heero better than anyone else” At this Quatre perked up and cocked his head to one side as if listening to something and brightened.
“Duo! Heero calms down when Duo is mentioned.” As Trowa took in the situation something was whispered in the back of his mind.
“Wufei, you go.”
“But/”
“Now, we are both needed here at the moment.”
As soon as Wufei left, Trowa turned towards Quatre. “Are you sure you want to do this, love. You can't go back.” Quatre's eyes started brimming with tears at the thought of Heero in perpetual fear.
“I have to Trowa, what if he stays like this?” At that moment Duo came rushing in. His eyes went wide at the site of Heero “Oh my god, what happened…” As he trailed off he got a look of understanding in his eyes and then got this blank look and started barking orders. “Quatre, Trowa, move away from him!” Heero whimpered at the sharp voice. When they didn't comply Duo gave a glare that could have rivaled Heero's.
“Now.” He growled out. When they did Duo rushed closer to Heero but made sure not to touch him and started talking in a soothing voice that the others had never heard before. “Heero we are here for you. You are safe, Heero, you are safe.”
{Heero's POV}
He was in his lab cell again thinking frantically about what he could have done wrong. It wasn't much of a room; it only had a cot in it. There was a flower in his hand and tears in his eyes. `Don't duck the punch, don't duck the punch.' As the expected hit came he rolled with it to minimize the damage as he had learned from experience.
Then the voice came again “You are a nothing, boy, a nothing, for supposedly being a perfect soldier you sure are dense. Feelings are useless.” *… call …J*
Another crash of the fist `He's going to put me back in retraining.' “You are a thing, an object to be used, and then discarded.” `I won't survive retraining. I can't go back there.' “No one loves you and no one ever will.” `No, that can't be true. Please some one help.'
A kick in the chest pushed him to the steel floor. *Duo…* As J grabbed the flower Heero was still clutching in his hands J ripped it to shreds and the guard kicked him again. J dropped the remains of the flower on the floor and gestured at it. “This is useless to you. You don't even understand what it is. You have only one use and one use only and half the time you can't even get that right.” *Oh my god…*
J's voice took on a softer tone which usually meant he was in one of his more dangerous moods. “You do know, boy, this is your own fault, right. If you do nothing wrong you won't be punished, it's just that simple and if you are dense enough not to figure that out you truly are a hopeless cause.” *Heero we are here for you. You are safe. You are safe, Heero*
The lab was starting to fade out as another room replaced it. `Huh what happened to the lab?'
As the room came into focus he stiffened as he saw the others peering at him apprehensively. He sharply barked out a “Report”
The others looked at him as if he had grown another head. And he couldn't blame them but if this looked to them like it was something that happened often then they would send him back to Dr. J for retraining. His eyes glazed over slightly at that thought.
But before he could get lost in another memory Duo started shouting at him. “What the hell Heero, you have a panic attack and bounce back with a fucking `Report.'”
He laughed inwardly at the thought. `I wish it was only a panic attack, but this was much more.'
Outwardly he snorted at the thought as he replied to Duo with contempt filling his voice. “I don't panic.”
Inwardly he was starting to get nervous though. If Wufei asked any questions there was no way he could avoid answering them he was bending the rules enough as is. As Duo opened his mouth to ask another question it became obvious to him that Duo was the spokesperson for the group at the moment. That thought relaxed him since at the moment he could ignore Duo, even if it was only for now. With that last thought he left.
No one noticed the storm brewing outside.
