A Gundam Wing Ghost Story II
3. Villa of Justice
*************************************************************** *****************
Duo absolutely had no idea how long he he was crawling through the tunnel, but finally he saw a small ray of light, which was quickly getting bigger and bigger the nearer he got to the exit.
And soon he reached the end of the tunnel and struggled out of a crack within a rock. Outside the sun was shining and the sky was so blue Duo couldn't remember ever seen such a beautiful sight. The braided boy took a deep breath of fresh air, which was thousand times better than the air in that sulky prison.
"Thanks Kami-sama! I'm free!" he shouted happily, still not believing that he was finally free after such a long time.
And now he would enjoy his freedom as long as he could. After all he had to find someone really important. Suddenly the braided boy made a face, when he smelled something ugly. Duo looked around to find the source of that smell, but then realized that he was the source of that smell.
Of course the braided scholar didn't wonder. He had been so long in this prison that his clothes and his whole body needed an urgent bath as soon as possible. When Duo opened the bundle, which he had from the old man, he caught sight of a book, a strange amulet and fortunately for him a black and white robe. Although it wasn't Duo's style it was better than nothing.
Duo decided to change and after that to go because he had enough of prisons for the present. Said and done. After Duo had changed into his new clothes, he wanted to go his way. But then the braided boy discovered something very interesting. Duo saw a horse standing right before him, ready and saddled.
"God, the old man is great. He also organized a horse for me!" the braided youth cheered.
He really couldn't believe it. Finally he was lucky again. Without a thought, that maybe the horse could belong to another person, Duo got onto the horse's back and started to ride off after looking around for a moment.
But if he had looked longer, he would have seen the young man in the undergrowth, who was the real owner of the horse. The young man, a monk, saw the whole incident that someone took his horse and he wasn't happy about it. Cursing he put his clothing in order.
"What the...? Is no one able to piddle in peace without being stolen?" he shouted before he began to run after Duo.
"Stop, you moron! That's my horse!"
But the young monk only saw them disappearing. He narrowed his eyes. He had to follow this guy and get his horse back. On no account he would tolerate this theft or his name wasn't longer Trowa Barton.
"Fine, you can ride onto the earth, but I can run under the earth!" he said.
Trowa concentrated and with a big leap he had disappeared under the ground, following Duo.
*
Lightning flashed through the darkness and it was pouring with rain, when Duo decided that he really needed a protection against the cloudburst. He rode further until he reached an old, abandoned house.
Thankfully he got off and rushed to the door, where he started to knock.
"Please, can anyone open the door?" he shouted.
But nobody answered nor opened the door. Instead the doors simply collapsed. Duo sweatdropped irritated, but then went in. It seems that the house was completely abandoned. When Duo's gaze finale fell onto the front door he could read the name "Villa of Justice".
"Hello is anybody here?" the braided young man carefully shouted, but got no answer.
Slowly he went on until he stopped suddenly. In front of him were eight big coffins.
"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight...eight coffins! That's enough for a whole family." Duo counted.
Somehow he suddenly felt creepy. A whole night together with 8 coffins? And what if this place was haunted? Just like at the Nataku Temple? Duo didn't feel like associating with ghosts and demons at the moment. He still had enough from the last time.
The braided boy hesitated. But then it was rumbling aloud outside the house and he flinched for fear.
"Okay, I'll just stay for one night and that's it. I'll promise not to disturb you. So please be kind with me." Duo whispered fearfully.
When he started to look for a warm and cosy corner, another door suddenly burst open and a very wet Trowa was coming inside. Duo stared at the young monk with wide eyes. He was scared because he didn't know the boy, whose face was half-covered by a big bang, or his intention at all. Maybe it was a robber, who wanted to murder him or maybe he thought Duo was a ghost.
Duo did the only thing he could do. He screamed and fled from the man.
"So......wait......just......wait!" Trowa gasped for air after his big run after Duo.
But Duo looked for a safe place, while Trowa was clinging to a post, seeking support.
"Hey you! Just wait! I just want to talk with you!" Trowa managed to choke out.
"About what? And why are you so pale? Are you sick?" Duo asked carefully.
"If you would have to run under the earth for so long, you also would be out of breath!" the young monk gasped again.
"Why do you chase me? I don't know you at all."
"Why? You stole my horse!" Trowa screeched.
"Oh! That was your horse? I thought someone other had provided it. Sorry!"
"Even if it had been like this you could have asked!"
"Oh, I guess you aren't a ghost then!"
Trowa rolled his eyes. This boy was so naive. Did he look like a demon or a ghost? The monk didn't think so.
"Okay, I'm really sorry for this misunderstanding." Duo apologized and wanted to give Trowa his hand.
But clumsy as he was, Duo managed to knock over a loose woodened post, so that several woodened boards fell onto Trowa's head. This one rubbed his aching head.
"Sorry. If I can do something to you just say it!" Duo said.
"Just leave me alone!" Trowa replied with a dangerous quiet tone.
//Thank Kami-sama I have good reflexes. This guy definitively is dangerous to the public and especially to my health. It's better when I keep aloof from him.// he thought and turned to leave.
"Oi, so you also want to stay overnight? You can sleep under the roof if you want to." Duo shouted after him and followed him.
Angrily Trowa turned round. Why did this guy have to follow him?
"No. Who knows what you are trying to do to me when I sleep!" he hissed.
Puzzled Duo looked after him, when the monk closed the door behind him. What did the other mean? But just one second later the braided boy heard a loud *SPLASH*, followed by several loud curses. Quickly Duo opened the door and stared at a very wet and confused Trowa, whose wet bang was sticking to his face and who was looking upwards.
"Ahem, I knew that rain water coming down there." Duo said.
Slowly the young monk's head turned round and Duo could see a vein throbbing quickly. Trowa just glared at Duo.
"OH, SHUT UP! AND I'M STAYING, DO YOU UNDERSTAND? BUT NOW LEAVE ME ALONE! If you have something to say, say it now. But don't disturb me! Good Night!" he screamed.
Then he slammed the door shut right before Duo's nose.
*
Confused the braided boy was standing in front of the closed door.
//What the hell was that now?// he thought shrugging.
Then Duo decided to look around before he went to sleep. After all he couldn't know who else was here. Suddenly his eyes began to sparkle. The reason was a bathtub full of water which looked as if it had been waiting just for him. Duo's heart immediately jumped with joy. Finally he could take a bath after that long time.
Right away he got rid of his clothes and jumped into the tub, where he finally relaxed. It was so relaxing that he even began to sing.
*
But outside, where the coffins were standing, it became suddenly very windy and stormy. Single water drops began to drip from the ceiling onto the caskets. And then...Slowly and creaking the cover of one of the coffins began to move aside.
Carefully a giant, mummified hand with big, knife-sharp nails groped its way out of the coffin. After waiting for a moment the hand slowly lifted the cover of the coffin.
*
Neither Duo nor Trowa had an idea of the new danger, which was waiting outside for them. The braided boy was still in the tub, singing and partly driving Trowa insane. The young monk only had wanted to sleep but it was nearly impossible because of that definitively mad braided moron who had begun to sing over 10 minutes ago.
And that's why he suddenly had the urgent need to stuff something into the others throat just to stop that damn howling. But then he got a better idea. The banged youth took a piece of paper, tore it into two pieces and plugged them into his ears. With a satisfied groan and smile on his face he finally went to sleep without any disturbances.
Meanwhile Duo sat in his tub when suddenly a shrill howling sounded. Frightened the braided boy suddenly sat upright into the tub. Then the torch went out.
"W...Who's there?" he stuttered.
But he got no answer. Instead the door flew open but there was no one in front of it. Duo gulped heavily. Could it be that this place was haunted, too?
"Hello. Are there any ghosts?"
But when he still got no answer back, Duo panicked. The braided boy put his clothes on as fast as he could. But then he remembered the young monk and tried to warn him.
"Hey my friend, can you hear me? This place is haunted! Please hurry up and got up! Hey, can you hear me?" he yelled aloud.
But Trowa didn't hear him. The banged youth only scratched his nose for a moment and then slept on peacefully.
However Duo left the room and the house hastily, since he thought that Trowa was already outside. Nevertheless he accidentally knocked over the tub so that the whole water floated across the floor until it reached Trowa's sleeping accommodation.
This one first thought he would dream that it was so wet at once. But then he awoke and realized the mess. Trowa immediately knew who was responsible for that.
"OH, THIS INSIDIOUS CHAP! AS IF I WASN'T WET ENOUGH!" he screamed furiously and jumped up.
He finally had enough. Monk or not, now he would have a call with this guy.
*
Meanwhile Duo had run into the forest and was now looking if someone was following him. And the next moment seemed to him as if he had foreseen it...Suddenly several white-clothed figures appeared, which were hanging at white cloth ropes from the tree branches.
Duo didn't notice them until he turned round. Since the braided boy thought they were ghosts he ran off panic-stricken. But then a white cloth noose stopped his flight. It wrapped around Duo's neck and lifted him up. Struggling he gasped for air. Fortunately Trowa came to his assistance.
"My......friend....it...is...haunted...in...this...pla ce! Just...go...away...!" Duo panted.
"Don't worry! I'm a specialist for ghosts!"
Trowa took out a ban paper and flung it towards Duo. The amulet cut trough the cloth and the braided fell to the ground screaming. Trowa caught him but then let him flop to the ground rudely.
"Out of the way!" he yelled.
Then the young monk let hover several ban papers right before him, each of them surrounded by a fiery aura.
"Whoever is here: Come out or you'll regret it!"
With these words he flung the amulets like a flash towards the figures, but these ones were quicker and disappeared into the crowns of the trees before the amulets hit them. Meanwhile Duo got up and was now standing next to Trowa who checked the surroundings.
"Wow, I never knew that you have magical powers, my friend! You remind me of an acquaintance of mine I have met once. His name was Heero Yui. Maybe you know him!" Duo said.
Trowa suddenly looked at him with a strange expression, before he answered:
"No, I don't!"
But in his thoughts he was confused.
//He knows Heero? That cannot be. Or can it...?//
But then the young monk pulled himself together and continued to check the forest.
"Hmmm, that's strange. Normally my nose can smell very good but now I can't smell anything. That weren't real ghosts!" he said quietly.
"Really?"
Trowa nodded. And then out of the blue several cloth ropes came again from above. The young monk could push Duo aside just in time before the ropes wrapped around him and lifted him upwards like a spiral. Quickly the banged youth freed himself and jumped to the ground.
"Come out! I know that you aren't real ghosts." He yelled.
Nothing happened. So Trowa decided to use his powers. He concentrated them after making moves with his hands and then said his magical words:
"Wind, fire, thunder, flash!"
Then the tree before him began to set in motion and sank slowly downwards. Meanwhile the monk was quickly mumbling his words again and again while making a movement with his hand. Duo only was astonished at this action.
Finally the first attackers came out of the crown and up to Trowa. They became more and more and were coming from all sides up to him. Trowa grabbed Duo and flew with him out of the dangerous area. Then he put Duo down onto a branch and flew back to fight against their attackers. But before he began Trowa quickly counted them. The whole group consisted of 40 people. But that wasn't a problem for him but he had to watch out.
Then the fight began and soon the first ones were lying on the ground.
"I knew it. You aren't ghosts!" Trowa smirked and continued to fight.
*
In the meantime another figure had watched the whole situation and now she had discovered Duo in the tree. The figure made a quick motion to the second one behind her and then turned to Duo. She flew up to him and tried to catch him but unfortunately failed. But the worst for Duo was that somehow one end of the rope wrapped around his waist and both, the figure and Duo, fell down from the tree.
Fortunately the rope slowed down the fall so that both were swinging in the air, Duo with his arms around the figures waist. He was struggling so hard, that he finally managed to pull down the veil, which covered the head of the figure. All the more he was surprised when he saw the face of a young blond boy with bright blue eyes.
"B...But...!" the braided boy managed to stutter out.
He rarely found hold and tore up the right sleeve of the boy's clothing. To get a better hold he clung tight to the boy's leg. (1)
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING? DON'T TOUCH ME!" the blond boy screamed outraged.
Duo didn't listen to him, but began to climb up at the boy's body.
"LET GO OFF ME, WILL YOU!" the young man screamed again and started to kick Duo with his other foot.
"But then I fell down!" the braided boy whined.
"I don't care. Let go off me! Immediately!" the boy yelled and continued to kick Duo.
But it was too late. A loud cracking noise excited their attention and both looked upwards knowing what would happen in a moment.
"Oh shit!" were Duo's only words.
And then it happened. The branch with the rope couldn't hold their weights anymore and broke off. Screaming aloud both boys fell downwards.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHH!!!'"
The whole thing would have ended bad for them if the second figure hadn't noticed their situation and come to help them. She flew to them and grabbed both boys before they reached the ground. While she flew them to a safe place the figure also lost her veil. Duo didn't notice it before they landed onto ground.
But when he opened his eyes to look at his rescuer the braided froze and stared with wide eyes at the face before him.
//That's impossible. That can't be...That...That's...//
His heart made a joyful jump and with tears in his eyes Duo stared at the boy who had the face of........his beloved Wufei.
