elwon_hamster: Heero/Duo scary
Halloween Drabble 31
"This doesn't look good."
Heero looked at the heavy manacles on his wrists and ankles and then grimaced at his partner. "No kidding. If I thought we'd make it out alive I'd swear to kill the person behind the bad intel. This whole thing was a trap."
Duo nodded. "He's dead meat when I get a hold of him."
Closing his eyes and carefully leaning back against the wall the best he could, Heero sighed. He hurt. "Well, at least we didn't let Chang come with us. Neither of us has a family to leave behind."
"Giving up already?"
"What else is there to do? I'm all for trying to get out, but how? We're outnumbered and outgunned. Not to mention the whole locked up thing."
Duo smiled faintly. "I might just have a trick up my sleeve. Do you trust me?"
"With my life."
Much to his surprise, Duo leaned over and pressed a kiss on his cheek. "I might not get to do that again," he said as Heero blinked at him.
"You haven't done that before."
"I know. I'm sorry."
"Don't be. I liked it."
For some reason, that made Duo's smile vanish altogether. "You might not after this." He paused at the sound of the key sliding into the lock. "Do me a favor- close your eyes."
"How is that going to help you?" Heero asked.
"Trust me," Duo said, and Heero's eyes widened as Duo's braid slid over his shoulder and started unwinding all by itself.
Heero closed his eyes.
He heard the guards come in, laughing and joking.
He heard a wet sliding sound, as if an animal had suddenly been gutted.
He heard the screams start.
For a moment, he cracked his eyes open the tiniest bit.
Duo's body, beside him, headless- and past that...
No wonder Duo always wore high collars.
He closed his eyes again.
The screaming stopped and something warm slid over his wrists and ankles, freeing him.
Still, he waited a few moments before opening his eyes. He focused not on the carnage around him, but on his pale bloodstained partner. "You okay?"
"I'm fine." Duo turned his head slightly, his hand reaching up to adjust his collar. "You saw?"
"I saw." Heero admitted.
"What are you going to do?"
Heero got to his feet, pulling Duo up with him. "I'm going to take my partner and get out of here."
"But I-"
"Saved me. Salvaged the mission. Unless you're planning on killing me in my sleep, I have no problem with this."
"I wasn't. I wouldn't."
"I know. So let's get out of here."
