Despite the noise that happened around Duo and Heero from the collapsing cave and all the stones that fell down, the chestnut-haired young man felt calm. Calm and at peace. Gently he stroked a few strands of dark brown hair from his soul mate's sleeping face.

"Heero... I promise you we will be together forever..."

The island of Atlantis sunk into the endless ocean. Nobody who was left there survived it. This was the end of the world as it had been.

.oOo.

'My son... you have returned to us,' a woman with long white hair and sparkling blue eyes said, smiling lovingly at Duo. Behind her stood a man with spiky jet-black hair and flaming red eyes, smiling just as lovingly at him. And within a heartbeat Duo knew that this were his parents, the Goddess Hisakata and the God Taiyou, symbols of the Moon and the Sun. He also knew that he was dead and that they were as well, but that he was meeting them in the after-life from where they had been watching him and guiding him ever so gently through all of his previous lives.

He smiled back, standing up from where he had been kneeling with Heero's head in his lap, ever so softly patting his hair. Never had he looked at the huge hole that was in his chest, the fatal wound that was his doing as Shinigami, calming the Beast with his eternal embrace. He knew that its rest wouldn't be forever, but it would be long enough so that he could hug his parents.

'Mother... Father...'

'My son... we missed you... but you were doing great on your own,' Taiyou said softly, his voice pure honey in the endlessly white realm.

'I... I felt so lonely....'

'You were never alone, my love,' Hisakata shook her head, embracing him once more. 'We were always with you...'

'I felt so complete when I found him...'

'I know, love.'

Carefully Duo freed himself of the embrace. 'Mother... I want to go back. I... I want to take care of the earth! I... want to meet HIM again...'

Blue eyes and red eyes looked at him in mild surprise. They had expected something like that, but not so soon.

'Is this truly your wish? You know you can meet him here as soon as he wakes up.'

Duo nodded almost unnoticeably. 'Yes. I want to go... and I'm sure he wants too. He had friends back there... so did I.'

Hisakata sighed. 'You know it won't be easy? You won't remember anything of your previous lives at first... and remember: when your power comes back to you, you may destroy the earth completely... and not just one island.'

'I know mother... but it's my wish.'

The white-haired woman sighed. 'Well, then... so be it.'

.oOo. The year 195 AC .oOo.

"Oi Heero! Wait up!"

"Hn."

"Hey! We've been assigned to this together, so don't give me your cold shoulder!"

The other rolled his eyes. How could he be paired up with this moron of a pilot?

"Hey, even you need the help of Shinigami from time to time!"

Heero turned around and for a moment Duo was sure to see a blue light in his eyes. "I don't need the help of 'death'!"

The braided boy recovered quickly from his surprise. "Hey, I was just reminding me that not even Perfect Soldiers can do everything on their own. Come on! Let's get over with this mission and hope that peace will be restored soon!"

Hooking his arm under the other's he pulled the other with him, having a sudden feeling of knowing this guy for eternity... sensing that this was his soul mate and that they were destined to be together. He instinctively sought the other's proximity, knowing that Heero would be able to wipe out mankind entirely if there wasn't something that made him hold back, something that made him hesitate... somebody he cared for.

The End.

Yep. That's the end. No more Atlantis in this storyline. ^^; I MAY do a continuation in another fandom, if it really strikes me, but this is it.
Did any of you notice who Duo's parents were? I mean, probably not, it's not from the GW-fandom (though they look remotely like my muses. ^^;; ). But it's from my current obsession. ^_~
Oh, I open this story-line for you to write it. Just send me notice if you do so... I'd highly appreciate it. ^_^
