See Him Safe "What took so long?" Heero watched Duo rock back on his heels, expecting the braided Preventer to bite back with a joke or a fist to the face. Maxwell was not one to take that tone of voice without some reaction therefore he was more than surprised when Duo ignored Chang and knelt beside Zechs. He was even more surprised when the volatile Chang ignored being ignored and joined Duo at the blonde’s side. " …Tunnel’s clear." Duo moved the jacket draped over the man to peer down at the baby bundled in blankets. "Want me to take him? We gotta go." Zechs stirred, ice blue eyes bright with fever and for a moment Heero doubted Zechs recognized either of them. "Then we go." a husky whisper. Pagan moved from his place by the Tun to kneel beside Zechs and with the immunity of all old family retainers pressed a cool hand to his forehead. "You are in no condition to carry Stephan. I have taken one Peacecraft infant to safety will you not do me the honour of entrusting another to me? Masters Yuy and Maxwell can go ahead and ensure the way is clear." Heero saw the strong arms tighten around the bundle and blue eyes closed. Chang glanced at Helen and held out his hand. He never saw what it was the nurse passed to him but Chang closed his fingers quickly before Zechs opened his eyes. "See him safe." "He will be safe." Pagan took the infant into his embrace. "Zechs, we need to go." Heero stirred aware that by now the delegation should have arrived with their court order. "Before we go take this. It will help reduce the fever." Chang opened his fingers to display a small blue pill. For a long moment the bright blue eyes studied the pill and then fumbling fingers took the medication from the much smaller hand. "Duo. Stay with Stephan?" a whisper. "Always. Right where he needs me." "I will assist you." Wu Fei stirred, standing to gather a bag which he passed to Helen, watching as Zechs brought his hand to his mouth and then swallowed. Heero watched as the nurse joined Pagan and Duo escorted them into the Tun. He watched as Chang motioned him to leave. "What was it?" "A sedative. He will have words to say when he wakes but I will face his anger then. He is in no fit condition to go anywhere." "Agreed." Behind Chang’s back he watched Zechs slip the pill into a fold in the sacks and met the piercing blue eyes. "I will get Stephan out of Sanc and I will be back for you both." Ice blue eyes thanked him and closed. Wu Fei sighed and looked over at the blonde. "Someone had to do it. He would have tried the tunnel." Heero glanced at Chang and grunted. "He may not be as mad at you as you think. I will see that Po keeps her scheduled appearance."
