Chapter eleven:

Twenty minutes after Heero's appearance, Quatre and Trowa found themselves at the Oakdale shopping mall, avidly looking for Duo and his `mystery guest', Wufei.

"Have you seen them yet, Trowa? I haven't felt Duo's aura yet! And either Wufei doesn't have an aura, or he is so powerful I cant read it!" Quatre nervously exclaimed, fidgeting, shifting from one foot to the other.

"Calm down little one. I am sure we will find them." Trowa quietly re-assured the short blond empath, wrapping his arms around the shorter youths shoulders.

"Trowa, Quatre." Heero greeted them, nodding slightly as he appeared behind them in the shadows, stepping out next to them.

"Heero! Have you seen them yet? Have you found them? Are they ok? Has anything happened to them? There are they?!" Quatre hurriedly asked, forgetting to pause for a breath.

Both of the taller, older teens smirked down at the shorter blond.

"Quatre, breathe, and let Heero speak" Trowa ordered his now blushing boyfriend.

"Did you find them, Heero?" Trowa asked quietly.

Heero just nodded once, turning to face a small art shop behind them off to one side. Trowa and Quatre turned to face the same direction Hero was facing. Standing outside the art store was an Asian youth, slightly taller than Quatre, shorter than Heero, with black neck length hair pulled back into a ponytail and deep onyx eyes. Wufei. He was obviously deep in thought, as he did not notice the three teens as they approached him.

As Heero led the way over to Wufei, followed shortly behind by Trowa and Quatre, he stopped just in front of Wufei, Trowa and Quatre each side of him, Wufei gazing fixatedly at the ground.

As three pairs of feet came into Wufei's line of sight, he jumped slightly, startled, taking a slight step back unconsciously. Obvious confusion was in his eyes as they scanned the other three, obviously not recognising the first two, but recognising the third as Quatre, Duo's friend.

"Um, can I, um, help you?" Wufei asked nervously, pushing a wisp of black hair behind his ear.

"Do you recognise me?" Quatre asked quietly, staring at Wufei.

"Yo-your Duo's friend Quatre?" he quietly asked, receiving a nod in response from the blond. Slightly unnerved that they were still just standing there, staring, Wufei nervously shifted from one foot to the other.

Heero took a step forward, towards Wufei.

"Do you remember or recognise me?" Heero asked.

Looking very confused and slightly apprehensive and scared, Wufei shook his head, taking a step back. " N-no."

"Are you sure about that, Little Dragon?" Heero questioned.

"Little….Dragon?" Wufei looked confused, looking down, deep in thought.

Just as Wufei finished speaking, and looked down, Duo came out of the store, looking slightly concerned at Wufei, and looking up quizzically at the other three.

"Hey, are you ok Wufei? Hey guys, why did you call Wu Little Dragon?" Duo questioned, standing beside Wufei.

"It's just a nickname." Trowa quietly replied.

"Wu, do you like being called little dragon?" Duo gently questioned, putting his arm around Wufei's shoulders, obviously worried about him.

Wufei just shook his head silently, still looking down. "No… I don't… I don't think…… no, I didn't-don't like it……" Wufei trailed off.

"Ok, `Fei. Trowa, Q, Heero, don't call Wufei little dragon, ok? Here, Wu, I got ya this." Duo said, smiling slightly, handing Wufei the bag he had been carrying.

Looking inside the bag, Wufei looked slightly shocked. Inside were several artist notebooks, pencils, a wooden box full of oil pains, some charcoal and a Chinese calligraphy set.

"Duo… I-thank you Duo, I-how did you know I like art? I-thank you!" Wufei thanked him, speechless (well, obviously not considering how much he just said, but you know what I meant), throwing his arms around the now beaming Duo.

"That's ok Wu." Duo beamed, slinging an arm around Wufei's neck. "I'll see you at school on Monday, Quat! And I'll see you at the club next week I guess, Hee-chan! Bye guys!" Duo waved, grabbing Wufei's hand, dragging him towards a music shop.

He didn't notice Heero's piercing glare following Wufei, nor the lack of Quatre's usually cheerful response.

"Was that him?" Quatre turned to Heero.

"Yes, that's him. Little Dragon from The Organisation of the Zodiac." Heero stoically replied

"But that means-" Quatre started, eyes wide.

Heero cut him off. "Yes. The Dragons Masters will be near by too."
