Gundam Wing Fan Fiction ❯ snowy day ❯ 2 ( Chapter 2 )

"Duo, stop eating you `will' throw up, we've been threw this." Quatre took Duo's 6th plat away from him, handing him 2 vitamins in it's place, and then Quatre left to the kitchen.

Duo sighed "but I'm still hungry, Quat."

"No you're not, think about it."

Duo sat there a moment thinking if he was still hungry. He popped the pills.

"Damn… I did eat to much." He breathed as he stood, and started his way to the stairs. As he slowly walked up the stairs, he past Wufei.

"3 minutes Maxwell" He scuffed, putting his belt on.

"arg!" was all he said as he walked past him then turning right at the top step. Listening to it squeak as the stairs thanked him for lifting his weight.

He walked down the hallway. The walls all wood, creating a dark brown look, with little to no light.

He turned the copper door handle, opening the door at the end and slipped in the room with a small smile.

"Oi, Buddy. How you holden up?" Duo whispered. There was no answer, but he wasn't expecting one.

He walked up to Heero's bedside, sucking on his lower lip. "I've got a mission. Be back in a week." He said kneeling beside Heero's Head.

"Trowa and Wufei are commin'" he pushed a stray hair out of Heero's icy cold face. "I guess there to replace you for now…." He sat there memorizing his friend's face.

"Don't be die'in on me while I'm gone."

"Quat'll take real good care of you."

He stood back up and walked around the bed and over to his, 2 feet away. He picked his jacket up and stepped back over to Heero, he tucked the teen in.

"See ya."

Duo shut the door behind him and walked down the hall to the stairs when he over heard Quatre talking.

"Some kind of poison?" Duo stopped and listened.

"…" Quatre was talking to Trowa.

"I'm not really sure, you'll have to ask. I would like to know too."

"Is there anything we can do??"

"……"

"I'm sure Duo could-.."

"…. ….."

"Oh.. I see. How far is it in?"

"…"

you could hear Quatre move across the floor in the kitchen.

"do you think he'll make it? I guess this is Heero.. but if we don't know what this is.."

Duo didn't like what he was hearing and started to walk to the stairs again.

*^ 18 hours later and 85,970 miles away ^*

"What, `Is' that!?!"

"Is that A cat?!" a cat, with patches of black fluff, slumped over another critter, with also bloody and unruly black fuzz. Both in a small ditch next to the speeding high way.

"Fei! Do you KNOW what that is?!" Duo made quite clear the disgust he felt.

"Thats Disgusting!" Trowa looked up the high way at the colorful cars passing by, ignoring Duo's unpleasantness.

"Wu-kun! Look at that."

"Fei! Its barfing it back up!! Oh my god!"

"Yeah.. That's what you get for eating your OWN KIND!!" Duo spat at the cat there were getting closer too.

"Shut your abhorrent Mouth eminently Maxwell!!"

Duo, Wufei, and Trowa walked slowly down the highway side. As they past the black cat, which was feasting upon its dead feline friend. Blood and guts hanging from its mouth. As they closed in on it, you could here the unpleasant noises.

"I'm not the one eating my own species. Blaaa…" he opened his mouth and let his tongue hang out.

^* 20 hours (2 hours later) and 4 miles away from the deglutition of a cat, we sit on the 8th floor in a hotel, watching Duo Maxwell work away with headphones on and pliers in hand. *^

"Now I got that feeling once again." His voice whispers in to the pliers he holds to his lips.

"I can't explain, you would not understand." He slowly lowers the pliers to the object he holds in the other hand.

"This is not how I am." He pushes the pliers over a small peace of metal and lays the object on the table taking a blue thin cord between his right finger and thumb.

"I have become comfortably numb." He sang on as he connects the blue cord to the metal, humming the part he did not know.

"Can you stand up?" he sings again and puts the pliers down and screws off a red cap. Taking a small bottle in hand he pours the substance in the bottle ware the red cap once screwed on to. He puts the first bottle down and picks up a new bottle and hums to a part he dose not know again, taking on the words when he sees fit.

"There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ship's smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves. OW! Shit!"

Duo put the new bottle down, and Looking at his hand.

"Damn thing.." He picked up the red cap and screwed it back on the top.

"The child is grown, the dream is gone."

He put took the black wire and his right hand and the green wire in the left, put them together and tied them.

"I have become comfortably numb…." He finished the song. Placing the now finished peace of work in a thin tin box and tying a silver ribbon around it.

Mocking a sob he said "Oh Heero would be so proud!!" he patted the box.

"I'm a true artist" he wiped away a fake tear.

"You're just growing up so fast my little time bomb! Sniff" he laughed placing the box next to 4 others.

"Now only 10 more and then we start with the monstrosities" Duo Grind.

Wufei had been watching the American for a few moments now. He had heard him singing on his way to the door, Duo had surprised him with the distinctive box bombs.

"What are you doing?" Duo looked up with a puzzled face and turned down his CD player.

"Nani?"

"What are you doing?"

"I'm sending these to some "special" people. Want one?!" Duo picked one up.

"There jam packed with goodies!"

"No you idiot." Wufei was about to walk off.

"Ware you going?!"

"Market."

"Can you pick me up some things?"

"Depends on what."

"Pine-Sol, Chlorine (I ran out) 30 plastic two liter bottles, WD-40, 7 tube of rubber cement, hydrochloric acid, tin foil, 7 liters of liquid nitrogen, 400 bb's" Duo batted his eyes at Wufei "Pleassse….?"

"…."

"I take that as a yes!"

^* 37 hours (16 hours later) same room with Duo, 14 box's of time bombs, Smoke Generations, WD bomb's, Liquid Nitrogen Bomb's and some other things Duo made with the left over ingredient *^

"do you know what would `REALLY' be funny?"

Trowa didn't answer and Wufei ignored him.

"If I dropped one…" Duo grinned evilly.

Wufei sniffed his nose a little but continued working on the computer, Trowa was now on the other end of the 2 rooms doing something.

"Well I'm glad we are such a close group of friends.. Damn" he took his cap in his right hand and plopped it on his head and put the bombs in a black bag. "I wish Heero was here…"

Duo sighed "when ever you verbose people are ready.."
