Are the ends justified by the means chapter six:

(In Duo's bedroom later that night)

A fifteen-year-old Chinese youth lay unconscious on the white satin bed. The youth was covered in bandages, and was tossing and turning restlessly in his sleep, murmuring something fearfully, before sitting bolt upright in bed, screaming, eyes wide with fear.

*Slam!*

"What's wrong?! What happened?!" Duo came bursting in through the door. The Chinese youth stared fearfully back at him, eyes darting round the room, confusion and fear clearly evident in his eyes.

"Shush, it's ok, it was just a nightmare, you're safe now." Duo walked over to the bed, putting his arm around the scared looking teen, quietly comforting him.

"Hi, my name is Duo Maxwell, I did tell ya earlier, buy you seemed kind of outta it. You are?" Duo introduced himself.

"My name is Chang Wufei." Wufei whispered fearfully. "Wh-where am I? Are-are you one of them?"

"I found you unconscious in the park, so I brought you back to my apartment. What do you mean, one of them? What happened to you?" Duo asked curiously.

Although Wufei had seemed to relax slightly when Duo had replied that he did not know who `they' were, he seemed hesitant and slightly nervous, as if he didn't feel that he could answer Duo's question, but did not want to anger him.

"It's ok. Its ok, Wufei. You don't have to tell me if you don't want to, or if you are not ready." Duo assured him.

"I-I can't remember! It's all just a big blur! I-I can't even remember where I live!" Wufei breathed, tensing again, making as if to get up.

As he tried to get up, he winced, gasping in pain.

"Hey, what do you think you are doing?!" Duo forced him to lay back down, covering him in the white satin sheets. "You can stay till you are better, or at least till you can remember where you live, ok?"

Looking slightly cautious and blushing, Wufei asked, " What's the catch?"

"No catch, I swear. I never lie. I run, I hide, but I never tell a lie. I just want to help."

"I…I don't have any money…"

"Hey, I never said that ya had to pay! I just wanna help you man! Geese, what's wrong with that?!"

"T-thank you Duo."

"Hey, that's o-" Duo started, stopping as the phone went off.

"Shit! I totally forgot I was meant to meet Quat! Be back in a mo!" Duo swore, diving for the phone.

"Hello? Yea, Q, I am SO SORRY! I totally forgot! I am so sorry man! Come on, it's not like you and Tro-Tro noticed that I wasn't there for at least an hour…I said I was sorry! Yes, yep, uh-huh, I'll see you tomorrow-Saturday, ok, see ya then, bye Quat!"

"Was that your partner on the phone?" Wufei quietly asked Duo when he came back into the room.

"Quatre? Ha! Yea right Wu-man! Q and me have been best friends for years! I guess he is sorta cutie, in that innocent blond angel kinda way, but Trowa would kick my butt if I tried anything! Oh, yea, Trowa Barton in Quatre's boyfriend. Quatre Raberba Winner. They've been going out for ages!"

"I am extremely sorry for making assumptions. I apologise. I will understand if you would like me to leave." Wufei began, yet again making to get up, yet again only to have Duo push him back down.

"Don't worry about it Wu-man, I'm bi anyway."

"Wu-man? My name is WuFei. I am also bisexual."

"Cool. How old are ya anyway Wu-chan? What school do ya go to?"

" I am fifteen years old, and I think I do not go to school. I cannot remember going since I was about five."

"What?! Ya gotta go to school! Wu-man, if I have to go to school, then so do you! I'll enrol you at my school first thing Monday morning! Hey, have you got a job? I just got this really cool job at this nightclub my friend Quat manages, I get to sing and perform there one or twice every week and….(bla bla bla, Wu stops listening)

// This…Duo seems to be very nice. He would appear to be a nice, genuine person…but, that's how they used to act, all nice and friendly, but they were never this nice….no! Stop thinking about them! You will only upset yourself again. Just shut up!//

"…..ok, I think I have bored you long enough with my mindless babble, I think it's about time you got some rest. I'll be just across the hall if ya need me, ok? My rooms the one covered in black. Just holler if ya need anything, ok? See ya in the morning!"
