My Short Stuff "How … did … anyone learn … he’s here?" Duo raced across the dustbowl that once had been lush grass. To one side he could see the dust kicked up by the jeep and his eyes narrowed into a glare that would give even Heero pause. Trowa grunted, long legs carrying him easily. "Preventers must … have … a leak." "I’ll fucking leak … the bastards … when … I get … my … hands on ’em!" Trowa wordlessly indicated the steps leading down that would take them to the promontory overlooking the road. The jeep was restricted to following the narrow track that served as access into the estate and without pausing both thundered down the stone steps. Trowa activated his com as he hurdled the last four. "Report, Rashid." "Access barricaded. Target not in sight." "Approaching promontory. Out." Duo growled low in his throat, blue eyes a flaming violet, thinking dark thoughts of getting down and dirty with these people. He could not believe someone had managed to abduct Stephan from the compound. At least the abduction was discovered almost immediately. Trowa glanced at the smaller man and grunted on seeing that fire. "I’d appreciate … them … alive … for questioning." "Depends … on them … If they … give me … back … my baby … they might … live." He’d personally approved the security arrangements but someone had made it through. He’d be damned if he didn’t get in a few decent licks to make certain the offenders understood the gravity of the situation. He hurdled a low bush, sliding to slip behind a boulder affording him a view of the road below while allowing him to remain hidden. Trowa crouched beside him, green eyes vibrant. The jeep was just screeching to a halt, the road block effectively barring the offenders progress was visible though they were still a distance from it. No doubt they would be doing some quick thinking on alternative escape routes. He was almost surprised to see Stephan was securely strapped into a safety seat and was bawling his heart out. //I am not going to stand in front of Chang or Zechs and tell them I lost Stephan. No one touches my Short Stuff and gets away with it.// Emerald green and blue violet met in silent accord, a long slender finger flicked, indicating the driver of the jeep and the chestnut head nodded in acknowledgement. Slender bodies tensed then were airborne and falling the two meters to the jeep. Trowa took the driver cleanly, competent hands taking him out of the jeep and to the rocky verge, careful to land on top of the stunned man. He was quite willing to give bruises, lumps and scrapes to be remembered by. His fist thundered into the man’s jaw and the body under him went limp. Satisfied he turned. Duo was smiling, a vicious stretch of lips that marked the presence of Shinigami. His hands were wrapped around the neck of his target and they were nose to nose. "Baby … Mine!" Duo hissed.
