[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
Disclaimer: I own Gundam Wing and all it’s wealthy franchise.. That’s why I’m writing this cheesy story on a non-paying fansite..... ( insert sarcasm here) Seriously guys, I don’t own shyte....
Author’s note: Well, what I cut out of the last chapter will be showing up in this one. Zechie-poozle is in this one. Also, as a further note, I find a grown up Duo very attractive, therefore, there will be mature Duo in these chapters.. I assure you I will try to keep him in character as much as possible though. Happy reading! ~Tee to the Fa
Warnings: Sexuality, innuendo, vulgar language
Chapter Four: Hero’s Comeback
“Flight 950 is now docking, please be sure to gather all your belongings and thank you for flying Sunlines.” Duo stood and helped Analise up with him from her own seat.
“Thank you Duo.”
“No prob Lis.” he grabbed her carry on, giving her a bright smile. In the short time the two of them had been on the flight, they’d become very good friends.. He followed her out of the shuttle, keeping close to her side to make sure that she wouldn’t be mugged or even hurt. He knew these ports like the back of his hand, and he knew that they were some of the most dangerous places to be.
“Such the gentleman, I can’t see why this Heero person wouldn’t be madly in love with you.” she said and he winked,
“I know right? I’ve got this hotness thing going on that makes me irresistible.” both of them laughed.
“That’s right, you’re a sexy piece of man meat.”
“Analise!! Dear over here!”
Both of them turned to see a stock woman in a floral dress waving towards them.
“That’s my mother, I better get going.” she said, looking up at him.
“Yup, don’t make old women wait, they get testy.” he teased.
“Duo Maxwell, you’re impossible!”
“Don’t you forget it. You call me, okay? As soon as you get settled I’ll take you out of some of L2'sbest and greasiest pizza.” she laughed and reached up, giving him a hug.
“I’ll see you later Duo!!” she called, running over to her mother who enveloped her in a hug. Duo smiled and shifted his own carry on before walking away towards the entrance of the port.
As soon as he got into the crowds, he heard the murmurs, things he’d not really missed in his years away from his home, whispers normally meant that something was wrong.
“My, my, my, look at him, I can’t even get my hair to grow that long.”
“Is he the new Grand General? I heard that Vice President Une hired someone to come and fix up the cluster.”
“But he’s so young!”
“Oh Em Gee, isn’t he so cute! Think he’ll give me his number?”
“I remember that kid, when he was just a youngster, he always stole from my shop with his little band of hooligans.” Duo winced, that must be the old man he and the orphans took from.
“Is he really?” Duo caught a glimpse of the old man nodding his head.
“Yeah, but it’s amazing how some poor little street kid grew up to be such a wonder for the colony, I’m proud to say that he was the one that stole from me.” Duo looked up to see him send a wink his way and Duo grinned.
“Duo Maxwell.”
He turned his gaze and suddenly he was staring at someone else’s chest. Raising an eyebrow, he looked up into the stormy grey eyes of the Lightening Count. His breath was temporarily taken away. The blond bombshell hadn’t lost any of his professional glory.
“ You’re drooling...” Zechs said with a slight smirk and Duo wiped his mouth.
“Well, who wouldn’t, nice to see ya again Merquise.” they shook hands.
“You as well... sir.”
“Oooo, I like that, do it again.” they began to walk out of the airport with Zechs chuckling.
“It’s good to see that you haven’t changed all that much Maxwell, I think I would be afraid if you did.” Zechs said as they hailed a cab.
“Well, can’t change em all eh? You my escort then?” Duo asked as Zechs opened the cab door for the smaller man. He climbed in after Duo and nodded his head.
“Une called me ahead to instruct me on the time and date of your arrival. I made sure that I was here to pick you up on the dot.– Base.” the cab driver nodded his head and they began to move.
“Did... did she tell you everything?”
“Had I not been here on this colony, both my sister and yuy would no longer be walking earth as live humans.” he said and Duo’s mouth dropped.
“You don’t even know me and you’re gonna kill em?” he said, those steel grey eyes turned to look at him once again and Duo’s face went red, think of Heero... Heero was the only one that could make him melt like that.. Think, think of Heero... Damn, not working.
“It is my duty to protect the well being of my superior...” was all that Zechs said, and they drove in silence to the base.

“Alright Wufei, explain– now.” Quatre stared levelly at his friend, making it obvious that he didn’t want to budge on the subject until all of his questions were answered. Everyone was seated in a private room in a very nice Chinese restaurant. Said Chinese man set down his sake cup.
“Apparently Duo had gone to Heero’s apartment to confess his sexuality and attraction to said pilot.”
“We knew that much, Duo had come to Quatre for help during their lunch break, I saw them leave together to Duo’s car.” Noin said. Wufei nodded his agreement.
“However, Duo didn’t manage to confess anything because Relena was there in the apartment with Heero.”
“Btich...” Hilde murmured.
“So duo panicked and had to lie...”Une said thoughtfully.
“So it would seem, and we all know how sick Duo makes himself when forced to lie.” Wufei said.
“So.. So that’s why Duo took the solo mission?” Quatre asked, lip quivering.
“That isn’t totally his choice, I believe I had something to do with him taking the mission in the first place.” Une said. Everyone looked at her and she was forced to explain.
“Maybe at first that must have been the reason why he took the job, but I did insist that he take it. I didn’t see the point in him throwing his career away because of a love loss. I mean, the man was going to submit a resignation.” she said, causing a few of them to gasp and the waitress, who had been listening to the conversation bite her lip. Duo had been one of her favorite customers.
“I think though, what finally did him in, was the fact that Duo wants to make his own life.” she finally said.
“That would make perfect sense if you looked at it the right way. Like all of us, duo has been raised to be a human tool of war, the only thing he’s ever known has been what he’s been taught to know.” Trowa said.
“So, that must mean that this is his chance to be a normal human being with a life of his own, to figure his worth in society.” Sally pinned together.
“That sounds about right, and I think it’s the best thing that he could be doing, don’t get me wrong...” Wufei took a bite of an egg roll that had been passed to him. “ Duo is one of my best friends, and nothing will stand in my way to protect him... but it’s time that he sort out what he needs to sort out... besides, I have the feeling that there is someone up there that is perfectly willing to help him do so.” he said
“Who?” Quatre asked.
“Zechs Merquise.. Someone who has had a growing crush on our pilot since he began working for the preventers.” Une said with a chuckle and everyone laughed.
“It’s so funny to think that Zechs has a crush on Duo, you’d think that he was.. Not capable of anything like a cruch.” Hilde laughed.
“This could work perfectly, Duo would forget about Heero and the heart ache that he caused, and he and Zechs would have a wonderful life together..” Catherine said. Everyone looked at her.
“Don’t look at me, I dare fangirl.” she said, turning her head away indignantly as everyone laughed.
“That’s not the only thing, we’ll be sending up the brand new Deathscythe Hellfire custom, Duo will be glad to have his companion back.” Une said and Wufei smiled. The preventer engineers had been working on renovating the gundams to bring back a lasting symbol of peace to the people, and he had no doubt that Duo would be highly glad to have his precious Shinigami back, he knew he was eager to see Nataku once more.
“Personally, I believe all of this should be kept on a need to know basis, there’s no need to have Heero go searching for Duo at this time, he’d only cause more harm than good. And Relena isn’t much better, now that she knows about Duo’s sexuality, there is a great possibility that she will try everything to keep Duo away from Heero, hoping that Heero will love her.” Une said, and everyone agreed with her with a nod.
Phew, one of the shorter ones I think, but it works just fine. Man... I just had another realization... Im making Relena out to be one of the biggest bitches of all time.. Like the mother of all bitches... and I don’t feel one drop of remorse... damn.. Anywho, please R& R and bare with me. I’m camping near a river....without any internet access, so these chapters are a product of mass boredom and too much time on my hands. Until the next chapter minna! ~Tee to the Fa
