Disclaimer: I don't own anything.
Notes: I am seriously screwing with the GW world. I got the idea from a techno-ized version of a Braveheart song.
Warnings: There are going to be a couple of deaths. I'm not going to tell you who but they will die. And there is Major Angst. So be prepared. Another thing, towards the end it will get kind of gross….But don't worry I will label that specific chapter for you.
The soldiers dragged the boy away and they eventually let Zechs go and escorted him back to the hotel. Zechs fumed the whole way, he just knew one of those representatives had told the authorities. Once he was at the hotel the soldiers left him to his own devices. He got into the elevator and pushed the button to his floor. When he got to his floor he was calming down but he would have to talk to Treize. He walked to his door but saw that the door was open. He paused when he heard the conversation going on behind the door.
"So did you get that boy?" The voice was definitely Treize.
"Yes, and your precious Zechs is being returned to you as we speak." That voice was Dermail.
"Good. So what are you going to do with the boy?"
"Execute him."
"Really? Are you going to do it privately or publicly?"
"I don't know what do you think I should do?"
"I say publicly and make it as brutal as possible. That way everyone will know what happens when they rebel against you."
"Great idea Treize, thank you. How are the talks coming along."
"Perfectly. He was to propose the idea to be the delegates of the colonies today at the meeting."
"Good. You sure he will do everything I say."
"Don't worry about it. I will convince him that your way is the best way. Now I must be going before Zechs gets here. I would hate for him to find out my treachery."
"I will talk to you later Treize."
Then there was nothing more. Zechs could hear Treize moving around and he decided it was safe to go in now.
"Hello Treize."
Treize for his part didn't look startled. He looked up at him and waited for him to say something.
"I heard everything. What is going on Treize? How could you be working for King Dermail?"
"Zechs, my dear let me explain. See this was my whole plan."
"Plan?"
"Yes, I have Dermail think that I am working for him but that is not what my goal is. The people need a truly horrible and gruesome war to see that war is a horrible thing, and should never happen again. I am using Dermail as a way of heightening the cruelness of the war."
"And the execution is another facet of that?"
"Yes, I knew you would understand."
"No, Treize I don't understand. You are going to sacrifice a boy to a horrible death just to prove a point. How can you justify that?"
"It is just another burden I will have to carry. Besides that boy is a Gundam pilot."
"What?"
"You heard me, Dermail told me all the information on the pilots, even their names, and I have my sources as well. I have sacrificed many people for this and I alone will meet the punishment."
"Who else have you sacrificed?"
"I think you know that answer."
It then clicked for Zechs. He had doubts before but now it was confirmed.
"You were the one who set off the bomb at that meeting. You killed all those pacifists including Une."
"Yes, poor Une. She sacrificed herself nobly for the cause."
"I can't believe you. I can't believe any of this. You are not the person I thought you were."
"People seldom are what you think they are."
Zechs was furious, "You even used me. I loved you Treize."
"I know you did, but it had to be done."
Zechs blew up then, "It didn't have to be done! You could have found some other way. A way that didn't involve using people and killing them."
"I can't say I'm sorry because I'm not. This is the way things have to be."
"They don't have to be like this. I have no choice but to turn you over to the authorities. Goodbye Treize."
Zechs started walking to the door but stopped when he heard Treize say, "Stop."
He turned and was surprised to see a gun leveled at him.
"I can't let you leave Zechs. You know too much and it isn't over yet."
"Are you going to kill me?"
"If I have to, yes. Please don't make me Zechs. It would pain me greatly."
"I see." Zechs moved quickly towards Treize. Treize fired but missed and before he could re-aim Zechs had grabbed a hold of his arm. They wrestled for the gun and it was pushed between their bodies. They both tried to aim at the other and pull the trigger. The shot went off which surprised them both. They both looked at each other in shock before they both fell to their knees.
Zechs held Treize as he slumped against him. Tears seeped out of his eyes as he watched the light in Treize's eyes die. Treize was dead and Zechs mourned his loss. He had killed his lover in self-defense, but that didn't mean he didn't feel guilty for it. He knew he couldn't stay there though, or the soldiers would come in. He got up and straightened his clothing. He looked down the hallway and sighed in relief when he saw no one there. He closed the door and left.
He walked around the city in despair. He thought of what Treize said and everything that had happened up until now. He knew then that he had to fight against Dermail. He had to join the rebels and fight for peace. He found a local phone and dialed a number of an old friend who had joined the rebels a while ago.
"Hello Sally, I would like to join you…"
He floated in the dark without moving. He heard the fluttering of wings and looked around to see what it was but all he could see was black. Then the area was flooded with light. He closed his eyes at the sudden harshness of the light. He heard movement and a flapping of wings. He squinted his eyes open and then fully opened them when the light didn't hurt anymore. Standing before him was Duo. He was dressed in a dark black robe with a golden belt around his waist. His hair was undone and flowed behind him in waves, which only heightened the effect of the black wings. His violet eyes glowed in the light and he smirked at Heero. He was leaning against a beautifully ornate Scythe. Heero gaped at him.
"Heero, love, close your mouth."
"D….Duo?"
Heero reached out to touch but pulled his hand back in fear it was just an illusion.
"Yes, Heero it's me. Don't worry I'm not an illusion. Here see." With that Duo reached out and caressed his cheek. Heero leaned into the warm touch and soon had Duo gathered close to him. He hugged him as hard as he could. He didn't want to let go ever.
"Duo, I…I missed you. I love you….Don't leave me again."
"I know, love, I know. It won't be long now. You'll be with me soon, but you need to know some things."
"What things Duo?"
"Your death will not be a pretty one. It will be very painful and I wished it didn't have to happen but I have no control over it."
"I will endure anything to be with you again."
"I know…I know. I need to go Heero but don't worry I'll see you again very soon."
"Okay, bye Duo. I love you."
"And I love you."
Duo leaned over and lightly rubbed his lips over Heero's. Heero gasped at the touch and awoke. He groggily looked around and found himself chained and in a cage. He was in a transport carrier and they were headed somewhere he didn't know. They seemed to be moving pretty fast though. One of the soldiers noticed he was awake and got a syringe out. He loaded it with a heavy sedative and injected it into him. Heero quickly fell unconscious again. There he found Duo again and they held each other for a long while.
