Chapter 1:

 

Heero woke sluggishly from his cotton filled haze. He was in a room on something soft and…furry. At his back was something warm and firm with a rhythmic beat a little faster than a human's heartbeat. It was pleasant. He felt safe. The feeling was enough to send him back into the haze he'd just fought his way through.

 

Hilde looked back at her companion finding the human slowly stirring. She smiled as she watched the strange creature take in his surroundings before falling back to sleep. Moving her eyes higher, she saw that the violet eyed fey that saved the human was smiling down at the messy mop of hair. She giggled softly before turning back to stir Gladius, the squirrel, in the right direction of their kingdom.

**

Heero woke again to the sound of voices talking a language he didn't recognize. Slowly, he opened his eyes fully expecting to be in a world of unbearable pain if his memory served him correctly. His vision blurred and focused as he took in his surroundings.

 

It was a room with large arch windows with no glass to keep out the breeze. Sunlight spilled into the room bathing everything in a rich warm light. The room was large with a large oak bookshelf that looked like it was made out of twigs and small pieces of rope. Off to the side was a large table made of the same wood. The twigs they were made from were cut neatly as well as smoothed over. The chairs that were put around them were the same only with a web of rope at the back of them.

 

“Ah, he's awake.”

Heero turned to the husky voice that came from the other side of the room. He was met with wide violet eyes staring back at him. He remembered the picture he'd drawn before he was hit by the car and looked over the young man in awe. He was about two or three inches shorter than the Japanese man which lean wiry muscles and sun-kissed skin. Unruly chestnut hair fell into his violet eyes. The rest of his hair was pulled back in a long rope of hair that fell well past his knees. At his back were butterfly-like wings, solid black with moonlight colored markings.

 

“Where am I?” Heero asked through his stupor. He sat up slowly finding himself in a bed made of four twigs tied together making posts and four more making of the frame. The mattress was made of something softer than anything you'd find laying around in the forest.

 

The fey frowned at the human's words not understanding what he was saying. He turned to his companion. “He's strange wouldn't you say, Hilde?”

 

“Yea, he is.” Heero looked towards Hilde and gawked yet again. The girl was petite yet still came up to the other fey's chin. Her denim blue eyes sparkled towards him through the unruly bangs of her purple-black hair. Her transparent wings fluttered with small twitches where she stood.

 

“What is your name, human?” The male fey asked as he sauntered towards Heero. He stopped at the side of the bed and looked down at him.

 

It was then Heero realized that he was indeed naked. The only thing keeping his skin covered was the thin layer of silk draped over his lower half. He flushed and pulled the see-through fabric in layers so that less of him could be seen. His efforts only seemed to amuse both Hilde and her friend.

”I never knew humans were modest.” The male fey chuckled. He placed his hand to his chest bringing the fact that he too was naked as well to light. “You can call me Duo.”

 

Heero averted his eyes quickly from the fey's body. Though it was a very…delicious sight, he couldn't bring himself to openly stare at the other man's body like that. When he heard the fey speak again he frowned in confusion.

 

Duo sighed and sat at the side of the bed. “Duo.” He said pointed to himself again.

 

“Duo.” Heero tried and earned a firm pat atop his wild mop of hair. He growled irately and batted the hand away glaring at Duo. Duo only grinned back him violet eyes sparkling with the expression. “Heero.” The Japanese man barked.

 

“Heero.” Duo mimicked his tone and word. With a sigh, Heero only nodded. “I saved your life, Heero. Omae wa ore no mono da.”

 

Heero didn't know exactly what Duo was saying but he was sure he wouldn't have liked it if he did. Carefully, he inched towards the edge of the bed without taking his eyes off the braided young man. He managed to get his legs swung over the side when another fey came through the doors.

 

It was an old man dressed in a long tunic that looked more like a lab coat. His hair was cut in an unusual mushroom shape that fell almost over his beaklike nose. His narrow eyes scanned over the room before glaring at Heero then to Duo.

”You bring a human to our kingdom! You are just as foolish as your brother was!” The man yelled in their native tongue.

 

Duo stood fluidly ignoring the fact that he was as naked as a newborn and glared at the man. “You will not speak of my brother like that. He's dead. You can at least have some respect for him in his absence.”

 

“You brother was fool! That's the reason he was killed! And now you make the same mistake as he did!”

 

“Solo was in love!”

 

“With the king of the Sunset Kingdom! The same king that had him killed!”

 

“Zech would never to such a thing and you know it!”

 

“Believe what you want boy.” The man spat then glared at Heero. “I should have him killed right now before he becomes a nuisance.” He growled. Duo stepped in front of the old man effectively breaking the eye contact they had.

 

“He's mine. You will not touch what is mine, G, or have you forgotten your place that quickly?”

 

G bulked at that but bit his tongue quickly. “No, your highness,” He said with a condescending tone. He bowed deeply making the motion mocking. “, I will remember my place.” He `promised' then straightened. “Your father wishes you to come down to the dining hall. He has received a gift he wishes to give to you from the Fire Kingdom.”

 

“Very well. Get out.”

G left then sneering once his back was turned to the young prince.

 

Heero watched everything transpire. He was torn between wiping the new man's glare off his face and escaping and staying put. Something told him that he'd be better off doing the latter. When the man finally left, he felt himself relax even though it was just by a little.

 

Duo turned away from the door violet eyes flaring. “You're coming with me.” He said. The tone in his voice left no argument to be made. With a wave of his hand, Heero was dressed in a pair of baggy pants made from the very silk he'd been trying to save his modesty with. He looked down then back up to find Duo in similar garbs only his were solid back pants that drew tight at his ankles. Unlike Heero, Duo also wore golden rings on his upper biceps. The bit of jewelry enhanced the visual play of muscles Heero had noticed. “Come.”

 

Unconsciously, Heero stood from the bed and followed the fuming fey. He didn't want to be left in the room if the older man decided to come back. Behind him, he listened as Hilde closed and locked the door behind them before following.

 

 

 

TBC……

 

A/N: Okay, we have our asshole for this particular fic. Duo has given his name…oh! And he was naked and so was Heero. But they didn't do anything…oh, poo….too soon anyways. Umm….review!!

 

(1) Omae wa ore no mono da - Japanese `You belong to me'

 

shampoo marea 2: Thanks for the help with the translation. I haven't taken Spanish in a year and have no one to speak it with so I'm pretty much rusting away in that department. It's a shame since I worked so hard to get through Spanish 4. Oh, well. Thank you for reviewing!! Let me know if I screw anything else up!

 

Rose Fury: I sort of had to write it over again. Glad you like it. I still have to get you know who into the fic and stuff….and some type of conflict. Hope you like!!

 

dkAdeena: HEY!! I continued it! Go me! Anywho, I'm going to update as many times as I can. I usually write on whatever fic whenever ideas come to me. Thank you for taking the time out to email me your comments and I will keep in mind that I can email you the chapter *before* I post for you can look it over!

 

Bombayoni: You can have a gift fic too if you want. Rose kinda asked by giving me a good plot bunny. She also picked the pairings and generally what happened in the prologue. You just gotta do the same. I'll pretty much start a gift fic for anyone that asks. I'm just nice like that. ^_^ And I'll still do your lemons on top of that. Thank you for reviewing!!
