Wrath of Shinigami
Aiko Tama and Seki


Wufei walked past Heero's room and caught an odd blinking light
in the corner of his eye. He peaked in and could see it was Heero's
laptop. Should Wufei touch it. He knew how sensitive the Zero pilot
can be about his laptop. Wufei walked up to the screen and saw the
messege flashing: "Message recieved: Emergancy O4"
"Quatre?" Wufei clicked the screen and Quatre was sitting with
a worried expression on his face, "is there anyone there? Duo Maxwell
is in 02 and is on his way to the Lunar Base! He must be stopped. He
thinks Heero is going to die and refers to himself as Shinigami. I
don't know what he plans to do.... I can't get ahold of Heero, other
wise I'd ask for his assistance."
Wufei frowned and tried to establish contact with Quatre. It
was successful, "what was that message about?"
"Duo seems to think Heero is going to die and he wants to
rescue him. I think he is delirious because he didn't look well and
nothing he said made much sense. Wufei, is there any way you can help?"
Wufei checked searched for some contact with Heero. It failed.
He tried again and when that failed he admitted it to Quatre, "It
seems no contact can be established with Heero, but I am picking up
a signal a mile off the Lunar Base."
"Wufei! Well, long time no see." It was Hilde. She brushed her
blue locks out of her face. "I recieved a signal and was hoping it was
Relena."
"Never mind that, have you seen Heero?"
"No, but there is a battle out here and I imagine he is probably amist the chaos, if he still has those Prefect Soldier instincts after all these years."
"Hilde, Maxwell is on his way there. He believes Heero is going
to die according to Winner's statements, can you look out for the
both of them?" Wufei had an edge of concern Hilde wasn't used to.
"Duo is right here on my radar, or his moble suit is. Funny. There is no activity from it, but that doesn't mean anything. It means it isn't fighting."
"Just watch him carefully, I hear he isn't in the best mental
state for piloting. Report to Quatre, he's on his way if he isn't there, already."
"10-4, over and out." Hilde was glad to have an excuse to
watch Duo in action or just sitting there, as the case my be. She saw
the pilot's door open. In the middle of space? Well, if that didn't
count as insane she didn't know what did. She saw black blur swoop in her
view.

"Heero." Shinigami didn't think about anything but Heero. It was his
job to see him to the otherside. He was Death after all. He felt Heero's life
force fading. Shinigami saw the distroyed gundam in pieces floating in space.
"NO!" the voice was Duo's, not the deeper one of Shinigami.
Shinigami frowned, "Duo, your feelings are strong."
"Heero can't die! Don't take him!" Duo cried out as if he was in pain.
"You never tried to stop me when Church Maxwell was destroyed and everyone
killed. You never stopped me. Not then, but you do now. Why?"
"Shinigami! Please!" Duo remembered the whole event. He remembered how
Shinigami took over him, like now. He remembered the desire that he felt in the
God of Death. That desire was to kill the priest.
"No, I didn't kill the priest. He needed to be helped to the otherside. I
thought you understood this. I don't take lives. I only help them to the otherside."
Shinigami could read Duo's thoughts because they were one. He could sense Duo's feelings.
What Maxwell was feeling was dispair and hurt and blame? Shinigami narrowed his eyes.
"But why did you distroy the church?"
"I couldn't control my powers when I first chose your body." Shinigami made it
clear a long time ago that he was never going to feel sad or sorry he did anything he
did and to say he was wouldn't be right. "You are delaying the inevitable!" Shinigami
flapped his wings and charged at the remains of Wing Zero. He floated just above the
cockpit of the Zero suit.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Duo screamed, but it didn't stop Shinigami as he produced
a scythe and tore open the gundam. When Duo saw Heero's still form he was silented. He
looked in horror at the sticky blood that had trickled from somewhere on Heero's shaggy
haired head. Shinigami's scythe disappeared as quickly as it had come and the God held out
the arms that belonged to Duo and reached for the Zero's pilot. He pulled Heero toward him
and grinned at him. Duo tried to fight Shinigami from within, but it only managed to
distract him a little.

"Quatre, you almost here." Hilde stared at a magnified image of Duo and Heero,
thanks to her suit. "You aren't going to believe this."
"I am almost in range. What is Duo doing and is Heero alive?"
"If Heero's alive then it isn't by much." Hilde frowned, "he looks like
hell. His gundam was distroyed, but that isn't what I am trying to tell you. Duo
has wings."
"What?" Quatre frowned.
Hilde sent the image to Quatre, "take a look for yourself. He had large
black wings and is holding Heero and crying."

"Duo, you know I must do this." Shinigami said as he was starting to
loose the battle. He had to get it over with quickly. He leaned forward to
Heero and pressed Duo's lips to the Zero's pilot. He started to take
Heero's soul, but Duo fought against Shinigami with control over his own
body. The inner battle lasted a long while, but Shinigami was determined to
take Heero to the otherside, even if he had to kill Duo in the process. He
could find another body to use. Shinigami deepened the kiss.
Heero felt it. Someone was kissing him. He guessed it was Relena.
What a way to die. If only he could fight her off and just leave his
body in piece. He knew he was going to die. He knew in his subconsious
it was time to. Damn Relena. If he could only fight it.... He saw a light.
Duo continued to fight. He couldn't give up hope of winning even if
Shinigami was in the last stage of taking Heero away from him. Duo knew he
and Heero would never beable to be a couple, but even so he wanted his crush
alive. He fought with all his hidden emotions and memories of times he wanted
Heero so bad he thought he was going to burst.

Hilde saw the brightlight that engulfed Duo and Heero. She gasped and
told Quatre of only that. She wasn't sure if she should tell him about the
kiss Duo and Heero shared. Maybe she missinturrpted it. Maybe.
