Fate
chapter 6
A face From the Past



Duo sat at the bar, his hands wrapped around the beer that rested in front
of him. It had been a year since he sat here last and the memories
flooded back, this was the same seat Heero had sat in three years
ago to the day, it had been the day before Heero's 16th birthday ans
he ans Duo were celebrating it early.
After a few beers they said their good bye's and parted ways, that was the last
time Heero had been seen.

Duo went home and more or less passed out the moment he sat on
his sofa, around four am. Less then two hours later a phone call woke
him up. It was his boss Director Une, Heero's Preventer's jacket had been
found in the alley way next to his apartment, shredded and
bloody. It was like an unbelievably horrible nightmare, the Preventer's
turned the entire all into a crime scene, every drop of blood was
numbered and photographed, Heero's jacket ( or what was left of it)
was cataloged and turned over for evidence along with his keys, wallet
and badge.

After two months the case went cold and with no body, Heero was
assumed dead and forgotten by every one except his closest friends.

" I knew I would find you here. " The gentle voice broke Duo's musings
" Hi, Wu." Duo said without turning around. Wufei sighed and sat down
next to his husband, wrapping an arm around Duo's waist.
" I miss him." Duo whispered, fighting back tears.
" So do I, we all do."
" I don't understand, Wu, It's been three fucking years and not a trace,"
Duo began, turning to face Wufei for the first time." I mean something
should have turned up by now."
" I know, it is confusing, but we can't give up hope, something will
turn up eventually, I can feel it, and when you least expect it, you'll
find what you are looking for."
Duo closed his eyes and took a deep breath before giving his husband
a weak smile, Wufei leaned forward and brushed his lips against Duo's.
" Trowa called, it's time." Duo nodded and paid for his beer.
" Happy, 19th birthday Heero." Duo whispered as he and Wufei left
the bar hand in hand.

// What do you want for dinner? //
" What ever you want is fine with me." Zechs replied, confidant Odoroki
could read his lips. Odoroki nodded a disappeared into the kitchen, it
had been nearly two years since Zechs had purchased Odoroki but
there was something different about him from the start and Zechs just
could not bring himself to treat the boy as a slave, after their first sexual
encounter their relationship changed, they went from a Master/slave type
situation to a one more like they were married.
Zechs watched his love move around the kitchen and noted the slight
limp. Odoroki's knee had healed enough to where he could walk with
out pain but the limp was still noticeable but not as prominent was it
had once been and they learned the devastating reality of the hearing
loss, it was permanent. Xara had explained that the damage was beyond
repair and would continue to get worse until the boy lost all of his
hearing. Zechs smiled at his silent companion, he was saddened slightly
when he thought about the nightmares the boy once had, those were
the only times Odoroki ever spoke, it was always in japanese and he
always would cry for help, Zechs spent many nights comforting the boy,
who never seemed to remember the dreams the next day, he was happy
when the dreams finally stopped.
Zechs felt a nudge at his knee and looked down, Kodomo was looking up
at him, with her big brown eyes.

" Hello, Kodomo." Zechs said, scratching the Golden Retriever's head.
// I really wish you had not named her that. // Odoroki said as he stepped
up to Zechs.
" Why not? She was a brat when she was a puppy."
// That's not the point, and before you say ' she doesn't know what it means',
think about it, I think it sounds a little mean.//
'' But she doesn't know what it means, and besides, you call me 'idiot'
and it doesn't hurt my feelings."
// That is because it is the truth.// instead of replying, Zechs simply pulled
Odoroki on to his lap, the smaller man snuggled into Zechs warm shoulder
for a moment, before pulling away and standing again.
// I almost forgot, can you go and pick these up for me?// Odoroki asked
handing Zechs a list. Zechs nodded and gave his love an affectionate kiss on
the cheek then shrugged into his coat.
" I'll be back in a half an hour, Kodomo, you take care of him while i'm gone."
The dog wagged her tail in agreement as she watched her owners share a kiss.

Odoroki paced the small apartment, it had been nearly four two hours since
Zechs had left, and he was more then worried.
Finally, the red light on their special phone blinked indicating a call, Odoroki
yanked the receiver up and quickly typed ' Hello ', slowly the computer deciphered
the spoken word on the other end, showing a printed version on his end.
< Mr. Marquise? >
' Yes. ' Odoroki had taken Zechs' surname as his own over a year ago.
< Mr. Zechs Marquise, has been a car accident and was taken to, Saint Mary's
hospital. >
' Is he okay? '
< Yes, all of his injuries were minor, but due to the pain relievers he was administered,
you will need to come and pick him up. > Odoroki breathed a sigh of relief.
' Thank you, please tell him that I am on my way.'
< I will, Sir,be careful and don't rush getting here.>
' I won't rush, good night.'

Odoroki called a cab, then hooked Kodomo into her harness and waited.
When Kodomo dragged him to the door, he knew his cab had arrived,
he grabbed his coat and left, locking the apartment behind him, he climbed
into the cab and handed the driver a slip of paper with the designation written
on it, the driver nodded and they pulled away.

" Congratulations!, they are both boys! " A nurse said.
Quatre sighed in relief and took one of the blue blanketed boys from the nurse,
as Trowa took the other infant from the second nurse.
" We'll be back in a few minutes." the nurse said before they left.
" So, 'dads', whatcha gonna name your boys?" Duo asked the new fathers,
( thanks to the help of test tubes, donor eggs and a surrogate mother, the Winner
males have just doubled.)
" We don't know yet, we've been too excited to choose." Trowa said smiling down
at the tiny boy, the Winner couple had been trying for two tears for a child and lost
six to miscarriages already, this was their last shot to have their own biological children,
and miracles of miracles it worked.
" I know what to name them, " Quatre began in a whisper. " Triton and Heero."
Both Trowa and Duo turned to him with tears in their eyes, Triton was Trowa's
birth name, ( according to Cathrine and the Episode Zero manga. *smirk*)
and today was the the of Heero's 19th birthday and the third anniversary of his
disappearance.
" Those are perfect, Kat." Duo whispered taking the infant and looking at it closely,
Trowa sat next to him and placed the second boy in his braided friend's arms, Duo
looked from one tiny, pink face to the other and smiled the first real, happy smile,
( aside from the one he smiled at his wedding.) that he had had in three years.

" So, which one is which?" Trowa asked looking up from his sons to address his
husband.
" Don't know." Quatre replied taking one of the babies and sitting down again.
" This one is Heero." Duo stated quietly, his eyes never leaving the infant that
rested in his arms, Trowa leaned in close to his friend and looked into his child's
face.
" Your right, Duo, this is Heero." the infants intense blue eyes sparkled up at them.
" Trowa, Triton has your eyes." Quatre said smiling.
" I'm sorry but we need to take them back to the nursery now, have you chosen
their names yet?" one of the nurses said when they returned.
" Triton Winner." Quatre said handing the infant to the nurse.
" Heero Winner." Duo said as the other nurse took the other boy.
Duo slipped out of the room so the new fathers could have a few moments
alone together, as he rounded a corner someone grabbed him putting a hand over
his mouth.

" Shhh" Wufei hissed into his husband's ear as he let him go.
" What's the big idea, Wu, you 'bout scared the shit out of me."
" I wanted to prepare you before you saw what is just beyond that doorway." Wufei replied.
" I don't understand." Wufei grasped Duo's hand and slowly led him through the doorway,
there sitting in the Emergency waiting room was none other then Heero, the japanese
man had tears in his eyes and was shaking slightly, clinging to the dog that sat at
his feet. Duo took a step forward, only to be pulled back by his husband.
" But..."
" He does not recognize me." Wufei whispered, but before anything else could be said
a man with his arm in a sling stepped up to Heero, Heero looked up, relief washing
over his face, he dropped the dogs leash and stood up, wrapping his arms around the
blond man, burying his face into the taller mans chest. The man was a good foot
taller then Heero, the pulled a way and the blond tipped his head down and kissed
Heero's lips then turned around.
" Oh, my GOD, that Zechs." Duo hissed, he and Wufei watched as Zechs
walked to the receptionists desk and made a phone call before turning back
to Heero.
" Let's go home." Zechs said quietly, Heero nodded and knelt down to pick up the
dogs leash, then walked with a slight limp the where Zechs stood.
Heero raised a hand and gently brushed his fingers across Zechs' bruised cheek.
Zechs gently grasped Heero's chin in his fingers and tilted the tear stained face
upwards.
" I'm okay, really." he whispered, Heero smiled.
" Mr. Marquise, you cab is here." a man near the door called out.
Zechs nodded, " Lets go home." he mouthed and started for the door with
his uninjured arm wrapped around Heero's back.
