" Not Even Hell Can Stop Me"

Chapter Two -
Truth Revealed

The five Gundam pilots sat in a dark cell. Duo was curled up against Heero. Trowa and Wufei sat next to each other leaning against one of the two beds in the cell; their younger lover Quatre was fast asleep over the two laps.

The air in the cell had a coldness to it just like the rest of the base.

Something was a miss only no one could put their finger on it.

Heero felt Duo shiver and tighten his arms round his love. Duo leaned back, attracted to the heat coming from Heero's body.

Quatre raised a weary head and looked round.

"Where are we?"

"Stuck in a prison cell waiting for oz to come and kill us."

"Cheerful aren't you Maxwell." Wufei commented.

Violet eyes burned through the dark cell.

"Would you like me to sing?"

"Yeah! Something happy." Quatre said nodded his head.

Duo could faintly make out the shape of his best friend.

Duo by far had the nicest singing voice and like his smile his voice could cheer any room up.

"What should I sing?"

"Anything cheerful."

Heero smiled and rested his chin on Duo's head as Duo started to sing softly.

"Sitting by a dirty old window,
Down below the cars in the city does rushing by,
I sit here alone and I wonder why." [1]

The door to the cell opened and all five heads snapped round.

A general, 2 soldiers and someone wearing a black cloak entered.

The cloaked man smiled at Duo who shrunk back even more against the strong form of his koibito. The fires of hell burned in the violet depths of the cloaked man's eyes.

"You're free." The General, who goes by the name Bega, told the pilots.

"What?" Wufei spat.

"Nani?" Duo raised an eyebrow.

"You. Are. Free." Bega repeated.

"Just like that? You're letting all of us go?" Wufei asked, he didn't like oz playing with him and it seemed that oz was right at the moment playing games.

"Not all of you." The cloaked man replied. "You four are free to go, he has to stay." He pointed a long white bony finger at Duo.

Heero straight away went for his gun and than remembered the oz had taken it of him. "Fuck it." He swore.

"Why must 02 stay?" Quatre asked.

"Enough questions. Are you gonna go or not? You are free." Lieutenant Rimes asked.

"Not with out Duo." Heero hissed once again tighten his arms round Duo.

"Heero... can't... breath..." Duo croaked and Heero relaxed his grip enough so that Duo had a small amount of space and airway.

Duo looked at the cloaked man and swallowed.

"Father?" He breathed.

Only Heero, who was the closest to Duo and the cloaked man, who had very good hearing, heard. Heero looked down at Duo puzzled. The man's smirk grew wider.

"Shinigami." He breathed back louder than Duo so that everyone could hear. Heero's eyes narrowed.

"You are free but you wish to remain? Our offer stands for two days. At the end of them two days if you want to go you may but if you don't you will be sent to headquarters."

And with that General Bega, the two lieutenants and the cloaked man walked out.

Duo pulled away from Heero's embrace shivering madly.

"This is it." He muttered unaware of the other pilots watching him carefully. "But I'm not going back... NOT WITHOUT A FIGHT!" He shouted the last bit at the door before slamming his fist into it.

To everyone's amazement, part from Duo's, Duo's fist went straight through the metal.

Duo removed his fist and watched as the door began to heal itself. Duo shook his head as new metal replaced the damaged metal.

"Break the door? The door mend itself?" Trowa asked soundly surprised but his words sent Duo into a flash back.

"You've broken your leg?" A soft female voice asked. Duo nodded and felt warm hands on the broken knee jolt.

"It was Voldemort. He pushed me!"

Warm Prussian eyes looked down at him.

"You broke the bone. I mend the bone."

The hands were removed and the knee bone was mended. [2]

Duo stood staring at the door, which was now complete again when he felt a spell hit him. Duo straggled backwards feeling a barrier push against his mind trying to break in to it.

Duo refused to give it what it wanted. It wouldn't get into his mind.

The other pilots watched as Duo screwed his eyes shut and stood perfectly still in the middle of the room.

Wills clashed, son fought father and it was the father who gave up and left suddenly throwing Duo of balance.

Duo had used up most of his strength in keeping his father (things will be explained in a minute or so) out of his mind. Duo fell backwards and strong warm arms caught him.

Another pair of Prussian blue eyes sprinkled at him.

"Heero?"

And Duo lost consciousness.

*~*

Duo awoke at the sound of voices.

“I’m not sure what’s going on. Duo called him Father, I’m positive of it. I think Duo knows exactly what’s happening.”

“Yeah. The man called Duo Shinigami. This is strange.”

“Do you sense anything Quatre? … Pity.”

“Sorry Heero.”

Duo forced his eyes open. Faces swam in front of his vision.

“Ohayo Duo.”

“Heero… I feel like shit.”

“Sleep some more baby. You’ll feel better for it.”

Duo smiled as his eyelids dropped and he fell asleep.

*~*

Heero woke Duo gently some time later.

“What’s up?” Duo said trying to hide a yawn.

“Gomen koi. But we need some answers.”

Duo sighed and looked round the cell.

“I better give you some than… but you aren’t gonna believe me.”

“Try us!”

Quatre was sitting on the floor leaning against Trowa’s legs: Trowa sat on one of the stone beds. Wufei sat next to Quatre his head resting on Quatre’s shoulder. Heero moved to sit on the other bed in the room, leaving Duo sitting by the back wall.

Duo took a deep breath. “Okay… When I say that I may run and hide but never tell a lie. I mean it. I am the one and only Shinigami.”

The rest of the group was in shock. Duo never lied so he must be…

“Shinigami?” Quatre asked.

Duo smiled and than looked down at the floor and continued.

“I am Shinigami but I’m also Duo Maxwell.”

“How can you be two people at once?”

“Quatre!” Heero warned. Quatre looked at Heero who shook his head. “Stop asking questions and let Duo explain.”

“I’m two people at once cause Shinigami and Duo Maxwell are the same person part from one is a mortal and the other is a immortal.

“So you are part human, part god?” Quatre whispered unaware that Duo had the senses of a God and could hear anything, even their thoughts. Not that Duo ever looked into his friends’ thoughts; it was against his nature to, Enemies were all right but never someone he didn’t know or someone he held close to his heart.

“Something like that. I’m a mortal, I bleed, I feel and I can die… well no Duo Maxwell dies and I become Shinigami and lead an immortal life. I can change to Shinigami when I need to. As Duo Maxwell I have a small amount of power but as Shinigami I decide who lives and who dies making my power more. If I die than I can never be a mortal again and most spend eternity as the God of Death.”

Heero shivered. Duo went silent letting his friends take in the information and got ready for the blow that was sure to come from Heero.

When no one moved or said anything Duo looked up hardly daring to hope. He looked Heero straight in the eye.

Heero was surprised to see tears in the violet orbs.

“ I AM Duo Maxwell!” Duo said loudly as if trying to believe it himself and than in a much lower voice “I love you Heero.” Before burying his head into his knees and sobbed quietly.

Heero pushed away from the bed and crossed the floor to Duo.

“Duo! I don’t give a damn!”

Quatre buried his head into Wufei’s shoulder.

“He’s blown it.”

Wufei patted Quatre on the back.

“It’s okay Heero has only just released that he does have emotions. He gonna have a few problems to start with.”

“Wufei! Quatre! Shut up.” Trowa said leaning down and placing his hands over his lover’s mouths.

Heero glared at them before turning back to Duo.

“As I was saying. Duo I don’t care what your name is. Shinigami or Duo Maxwell. I love YOU!” He placed a hand on Duo’s chin and lifted it up.

“I love you not your name.” And he caught Duo’s lips in a kiss.

Trowa, Quatre and Wufei sat there… speechless. Quatre looked at Wufei.

“Maxwell did a good job at bring Heero out of his shell didn’t he?”

Quatre and Trowa just nodded.

“Guys?”

“Yes Duo.”

“Do you mind me?”

“Sorry Duo?” Quatre asked gently.

“Do you mind me being Shinigami?”

“No. It doesn’t matter what you are Duo. It matters who you are. You ARE Duo Maxwell. No one else could be Duo Maxwell only you.”

“Thanks Wuffei!”

“It’s Wufei.” Wufei hissed angrily while everyone burst out laughing.

Heero turned to Duo and whipped the tears away carefully.

“My Shinigami [3].” He whispered before leaning in to claim them lips once again.

*~*

“Now this could be interesting!”

“Sorry Sir.” General Bega stood below Hades, Lord of the Underworld.

“Shinigami loves a mortal and will be willing to do anything to keep him alive… ANYTHING!”
