Claiming Duo Maxwell Part 6
Heero's hand tighten round Duo's middle and he glared at Pepsin. He pressed Duo to him. Heero's eyes promised death.
"Omae o Korosu." Heero hissed at Pepsin, almost smirking as Pepsin stepped back almost afraid of Heero.
Treize was watching Heero closely. Heero struggled to remain strong as he felt Treize's eyes burn into him, or to be more precise, his ass.
"It's been a long time my love." Pepsin spoke again; tearing his eyes from Heero's to lock with Duo's. Pepsin smiled clearly enjoying the fear that showed so plainly in Duo's violet eyes. Duo seemed to be in shock. His body was losing feelings and there was only one other time when his body had lost all its feelings. That day, nearly ten years ago when Pepsin had roughly claimed his body.
"Heero." Duo whispered. He could feel someone against him holding him but he didn't know who it was.
"Shh koi, I'm here." Heero's lips brushed Duo's ear.
Wufei felt Relena move closer to him and he placed a hand on hers to tell her that he was there and nothing was going to hurt her. He watched the scene with an ever-growing hatred for both Pepsin and Treize and knew that if he didn't move then neither would any one else.
"We're leaving," his voice rang loud and clear through the silent waiting room. "Duo, Heero." Wufei pulled Relena forward carefully and touched Heero's back. An order clear but not sounded. Heero gave a nod and bent to lift Duo up off the floor.
Heero held Duo's limp body in his arms and took a shaking step forward. He ignored the red-hot pain that tore through his body at the movement and kept his thoughts on Duo and getting Duo out of the hospital without Pepsin touching him. He took another step and found that it went from beneath him.
"Heero!" Relena half yelled as her stepbrother slipped.
Pepsin stepped for quickly ready to grab Duo from Heero to stop Duo being hurt.
But they never fell.
Heero shook his head trying to clear his vision. He was half aware that someone had removed Duo from his arms and he could feel someone else's arm round his waist. He decided to would be better to let them lead and support so as they started to move forward Heero made his feet move as well.
Wufei glared at Zechs as he held the two loves gently. Duo's face was against Zechs shoulder and his arms around Zechs neck and legs were around Zechs waist. Heero was standing up right but was still being held by Zechs and Zechs managed to walk the two to the doors without trouble.
Wufei quickly went forward and pulled open the doors for Zechs. Relena followed Zechs out and Wufei was about to follow when Treize's voice stopped him.
"This is far from over Dragon."
Wufei turned back holding his head him.
"For now it is over." He replied and walked out. He strolled over to the taxi where Relena was helping Heero into the taxi while Zechs stood beside the open door, still holding Duo in his arms.
Zechs could feel a pair of dazed violet eyes on him and he knew that Duo was slowly coming back to his senses and was slowly working out who he was.
"Zechs?"
"Hn."
"Why are you here?" Duo's voice was barely a whisper.
"Hand him here Zechs." Heero's voice came from the taxi and Zechs obeyed. He lowered Duo into the taxi and into Heero's waiting arms.
"Why?"
"Treize told me what he planned to do and I couldn't let him."
Zechs stepped away from the car door to let Wufei in.
"I have a car. I'll drive that home."
"Someone has to go with them. Relena can't carry them both."
When Wufei didn't answer Zechs climbed into the taxi. Wufei leaned into the driver's side window. He whispered the address into the driver's ear and the driver nodded. Wufei stepped back as the taxi pulled away.
Nothing was said on the way home but Zechs could feel Duo's eyes on him. It was true what he had said. He had come to stop Treize. He loved Treize more than anything and didn't wish to see him hurt but the only way to do that was to join Treize's enemy. He prayed that one day he would be forgiven.
"Here we are. That will be $14 thank you."
Relena went to take out 14 dollars from her purse but was stopped when Zechs lent forward and put $20 into the man's hand.
"Keep the change. Relena you take Heero, I'll carry Duo."
Carefully Heero let go of Duo and let Zechs take him. He then stood himself, nearly falling again from then sudden movement. He felt Relena's arms grip him to stop him.
Zechs stared up at Duo's house as the taxi disappeared down the long drive to the main road.
"Shit." He swore as Relena helped Heero to the front door.
"Pass me Duo's keys." She ordered Zechs and Zechs began to search Duo's pockets for keys. Finding only one set he threw them to Relena who quickly unlocked the door and cried out to any one.
Two people came running, one was Quatre and the other was Rashid.
"Duo! Heero! Relena what happened?"
"It's a long story."
Zechs stepped into the huge hallway and felt Duo struggle in his arms. He placed Duo on the floor and let go. He watched Duo stand there for a second before Duo took a slow step forward or at least try to. Still dazed from the night's early actions his legs wobbled under him and Rashid took him gently.
"Go Zechs." Relena ordered. Zechs bowed to the group in the hall and walked out, shutting the door as he went.
Heero turned to Rashid.
"Take Duo to his room and put him to bed, please?"
"Yes Master Heero." Rashid helped a protesting Duo up the stairs as Relena and Quatre helped Heero into the living room.
"Care to explain?" Quatre asked.
Heero and Relena looked at each other and Heero opened his mouth to speak and told Quatre everything.
* * *
"What's this guy called again?"
"Pepsin, I think?"
Quatre paled.
"That's not good."
"Why not?"
Quatre looked between Relena and Heero and sighed.
"Ten years ago when we met Treize we became quite good friends with him. They were our next door neighbours."
Two small boys, one with long brown hair the other with blond hair walked down the garden path. There were swings at the bottom and they wanted to play. The two sat down and were playing and laughing together.
"For Duo it was a renewed childhood. After losing the first seven years it was time for him to have some fun and act as a child. We were both relaxed and neither of us noticed the man that stood watching us. It was some days later when Treize popped by to welcome us to the neighbourhood."
Chibi Duo eyed Treize with uncertainty. Chibi Quatre walked forward and held out a hand making the adults in the room laugh. "Nice to met ya. I'm Quatre Raberba Winner."
Treize smiled down at the boy and lowered himself down to Quatre's level.
"Nice to me you too Quatre Raberba Winner and is that your brother?" He said shaking Chibi Quatre's hand.
"That's Duo Maxwell. He is my adopted brother."
Treize walked towards Chibi Duo who backed away from him.
"Hello there."
"Go away." Chibi Duo said, his voice cold.
"Duo hated Treize from the word go?"
"No, they became friends and then enemies when we met Treize's brother Pepsin. Duo overheard them talking to a girl that lived rough. At that age I hadn't even been told about sex but by then Duo was well aware of what people do together."
Chibi Duo watched them as Pepsin and Treize stared at the 10 year old girl.
"How much will you give me?"
"$50."
"Fine."
Chibi Duo watched as Pepsin pulled his trousers down and watched as the girl sucked Pepsin dry, while Treize fucked her.
"After they had done her; Pepsin saw Duo. What happened I've never found out, but I remember when I caught Duo and this old man in the back of our shed a year later."
Chibi Duo gave a cry of pain as the man pushed in harder. Tears leaked from his eyes as the man brutally used his body again and again.
"Pepsin was right, you are so fucking good."
"DUO!?"
The man stopped what he was doing and turned to see a Chibi Quatre watching them with was fearful open eyes.
At Quatre's cry of pain Mr. Winner had come running. The man who had been fucking Duo ran away and Duo told him that it was Pepsin who made him do it.
"When Dad went to talk to Pepsin, he had already left."
Heero stood up, not wanting to hear any more. He headed out of the room and up to Duo's.
"Heero?"
He turned back to Quatre who was handing Relena a box of tissues.
"Be careful with him. He's been hurt too many times. Another might send him over the edge."
Heero nodded and continued up.
* * *
The man snarled at the boy beneath him and grasped, him forcing him to the ground. "I paid good money for you boy. I'm getting what I paid for."
"No, no please! No!" The boy sobbed as he felt his clothes get ripped from his body.
Duo looked up into the heartless eyes and stared in horror as the man's face changed to Pepsin's.
"It's been too long. I've almost forgotten what you feel like Duo. You became a drug to me and I couldn't stop wishing I had you back."
Duo struggled against the older and stronger man but couldn't break the grip Pepsin had on him.
"You're mine Duo Maxwell."
And with a cruel laugh Pepsin thrusted into the small boy's body.
Duo bolted up right. The covers fell from his body to reveal him drenched in sweat.
"Oh god. No." Duo whimpered and pressed his head into his hands.
"Duo?"
Duo looked up into Heero's face and threw himself on to himself into his lover's arms.
"I don't wanna go back."
