Slave to Love Part 13
Slain
Heero knew they were fighting a losing battle. There wasn't anything they could do to stop the attack. The castle was over run with Romerfeller Soldiers. He had just heard two Romerfeller's were dead in the medical room. Knife wounds. Duo's handy work.
"Give the order to the retreat. Tell the men to get some where safe."
Heero watched his kingdom fall before his very eyes but the worst pain of all was the truth that there was nothing he could do to stop it!
"Don't worry Heero. Kingdoms have fallen before. You haven't failed me." Treize walked up behind him.
Heero looked down at his blood soak clothes and then as the more waves of Romerfeller soldiers that entered the palace.
"Why?"
"He has always wanted this. Dekim. It was only a matter of time."
Just then the said person, Dekim, entered the palace. Heero's eyes lit up.
"It's not over yet."

It was Trowa who came to the Prince's Chambers. He was covered in blood, some was his own but most were the people he had killed. Duo was standing by the door and as soon as he had entered the room there was a knife being pressed to his throat.
"It's Trowa."
"Sorry."
Duo removed the knife.
"It's over." Trowa informed the room.
"Who won?"
Trowa looked away.
"We lost. The new king... calls... for us."
They followed Trowa to the Throne Room.
Upon the Throne was a man about 40. His nose was large and his hair was dark brown. His blue eyes glared at the group that entered the room. Relena moved closer to Dorothy.
Wufei was on all fours by the 'king's feet, like Trowa, he too was covered in blood. Treize was crouched beside someone's body; long blond hair gave it away.
"Brother!" Relena ran across the room to where Zechs laid dead.
Duo's eyes searched for a sign of Heero.
"You are Prince Heero's slave?"
Duo glared at the king.
"Who are you?"
"The leader of Romerfeller. Now the ruler of this kingdom. King Dekim Barton. I'm also your new master."
Duo's eyes widen. If Dekim was his new master then Heero must be...
"Heero is dead Duo." Wufei whispered looking up at the braided boy. "We couldn't even find his body."
Duo stepped back, his legs turned to jello and he collapsed on to all fours. "No." Tears spilled over his violet diamond eyes and he hung his head letting them fall on the stone floor beneath him.
"Guard, there is one person left to kill." Dekim yelled.
"Treize!" Duo shouted and the former king looked round at the heartbroken slave.
"I'll tell Heero you love him." Treize tried to smile at Duo as an arrow was shot through his heart. The light died in Treize's eyes and Duo lowered his head again.
"And at least the Yuy and Khushrenada family has been slain." Dekim announced cheerfully.
Duo's hand encircled one of the knives handles and stood up. Tears streamed down his face as he strolled towards Dekim. Dead guards laid to his left and on his right, Relena was bent over Treize and Zech's dead bodies crying. In front of him stood the murderer.
"King Dekim." Duo bowed.
Relena looked up.
Dekim smiled at the gorgeous boy in front of him.
"Come here, Duo Maxwell. You are well known for your beauty around these parts."
Duo walked forward, his heart racing a million times a minute, as he became an inch away from Dekim's whole body.
"But the rumours don't do you credit."
"You know what?"
"What?"
"There are a few things you don't know about me."
"Really?"
"Yeah. I'm really good with... certain things." Duo purred, he breathed in deeply as Dekim's hand slid on to his ass and pulled their lower bodies together, pressing his obvious lust for Duo into Duo's stomach, after all Duo was about a foot smaller than Dekim.
"Really?"
Duo nodded. "Especially these."
No one could see what was going on. But Wufei caught the reflection on the silver dagger just before Duo dug it deep into Dekim's unprotected stomach.
Dekim's blue eyes budged and Duo pushed himself backwards, putting distance between them. Dekim's blood had already soaked Duo's shirt as Dekim fell forward pushing the knife deeper into him.
Suddenly there was someone behind Duo. Whoever it was grabbed him roughly and dragged him forward again. She cut his arm sending his blood spilling on to Dekim's back.
"With this blood I offer you, heal." A female voice chanted.
Dekim laughed and looked up.
"Nice try Duo. Met my healer, Lady Une."

Duo was thrown with Relena into a tower room and locked there. "Are you alright?" She asked.
"FUCK!!!!!!!"
"Guess not."
Relena looked at Duo.
"He's dead Relena." Duo closed his eyes trying to hold back tears. "He's really dead."
"Oh Duo." Relena hurried forward and wrapped her arms around Duo as he tried to hold back the tears that threaten to spill.
"I can't go on Relena, I need him."
"It'll be ok."
Duo pushed Relena away and Duo hurried to the window. He stared out across at the maze where Heero had first made love to him.
"I love you so much." Duo whispered hoping Heero he could hear him. He bowed his head as the tears fell forth. "Dekim is going to die. I promise you Heero I will kill him. He will die for what he has done." Tears overcame Duo and he couldn't speak any more. He just stood there, watching the sun play with the garden and cried.
