Duo POV

“Speaking”

 

 

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~

 

He's coming. I feel it in the air. I know who he's after too. But I won't let him take him.

 

I know that in the end it won't matter but right now it does. Everyone needs him. The world still needs him.

 

I go to meet him again.

 

Yes this not the first time that I've had to meet him. I've met him on more then one occasion in the past.

 

He does not always grant what I ask of him. But I always try. I have to try. This time I can't lose.

 

I'm late. This is the one time Duo Maxwell can not be late.

 

 

 

I'm running up the stairs and down the hall. I'm yelling at myself for not being able to go faster. My feet surely need to grow wings.

 

I'm at his door and I just go in.

 

The other guys are asleep. I know they won't wake up. Its part of the reason he can get away with this. No one ever wakes up.

 

I see him. He's right above him.

 

“Stop. Please don't do this” I ask

 

“Tell me why I shouldn't” he says

 

“Because the world still needs him. I know in the end he'll make the difference” I say

 

“You have asked me before to grant someone their life and I denied it to them and you said that you would kill me. It seems like you have had a change of heart. Tell me why” he says

 

“I still intend to kill you. But I ask, no I beg of you not to take this one” I say

 

“But he's so close. Just one little kiss and he will be mine” he says

 

“The world still needs him! Please, don't do it” I say

 

I'm starting to cry. I can hear my voice crack and I can feel the wetness on my cheeks.

 

“You have emotions for this person” he says

 

It's a statement not a question. He doesn't expect me to answer it.

 

“Yes, I need him as much as the world needs him. Surely you can see this” I say

 

“We have done this before and you know what comes of this. I will spare him but always remember who you are tangoing with. The deal still stands. You may keep him this time but remember that I hunt you just as you hunt me” he says

 

“I will, I do” I say

 

“Then, until next time Shinigami” he says

 

“Until till next time Death” I say

 

I know there will be a next time. There always is. But this time I have won. I always will be running from Death, while courting him at the same time.

 

He is Death and I am Shinigami. Together we bargain for the ones to live.

 

He wins more often then not but tonight was my night.

 

He wakes now. No one will know of what happened tonight.

 

“Duo, what are you doing in my room?” he asks

 

“Just doing the evening check before I sleep” I say

 

“Go back to bed Baka” he tells me

 

I leave his room and walk to mine.

 

Heero, the one person in my life that I know I can't let Death court.

 

But I am Shinigami, God of Death, Duo Maxwell, Baka. And forever I will be chasing after Death, keeping him from stealing those that can't go and bargaining for the ones that I know have to stay.

 

This is my life.

 

For I will always be Shinigami.
