Created by Love, Blood and Death Part 15
Shinii's POV
Well, this is different. I look around and see nothing. Absolutely nothing. Everything is gray and cloudy. The only thing I do know is that I'm in someone's dream. I wonder who would dream of nothing? I keep walking and then stop to look around. As I look I hear a clicking noise.
"Omae o koroso." I turn around to see a gun pointed at my head and Heero standing in front of me.
I can't help but grin. "Interesting threat. But you can't kill death."
He raises an eyebrow. "Hn, you're death?"
Should I tell him the truth? Oh who cares, I'm sick of playing by the rules of those who want to destroy my master. Now we play by my rules. "Allow me to introduce myself. I am Shinii Tenshi, First Appointed Angle of Death. Created by my master Shinigami. I believe you know him."
"I do not."
"Yes you do."
"Iie, I do not."
"Hai, you do."
"Iie, I do not."
"Hai."
"Iie."
"Hai."
"Iie."
"You know you're arguing with a little girl, right?"
Heero opens his mouth to say something but stops. "Hn." He turns away from me. "Why are you here?"
"I don't know." Like my master always says, honesty is always best.
"Hn." Heero walks away from me. But I decide to follow him. I smile to myself; I used to follow Kei everywhere.
"Why are you following me?"
"Why not?" I walk faster to catch up to him. "Why do you dream of nothing?"
"Why dream?"
I look at him shocked. "Because it's a mortal thing to do. Don't you dream of memories?"
"Iie." Suddenly the scenery changes to Kei's house.
"What did you do?" Heero looks at me. Okay he glares at me.
"It's just a memory."
"I don't remember this."
"Mortals, you are so narrow-minded sometimes. Just because you, Heero, don't remember this doesn't mean it's not a memory of yours."
"You make no sense."
I sigh, loudly. "Past life. This is a house you had in a past life."
"Hn." Heero looks around the yard. "What did I do here?"
"You were an artist."
Heero looks at me wide eyed. "Duo asked me about drawing today."
"I know. You were really good."
"Hn." I turn to leave. "Where are you going?" I look at Heero and smile.
"You're going to wake up soon. I need to leave before you wake."
"Hn."
Duo's POV
Well looks like I'm back in the realm of the immortals. I'm sitting by a pond. Val and Nanashi are to my left. Apparently Nanashi said something funny because Val is laughing. Wufei, the red dragon, is on the other side of them. He's sleeping.
"I can't believe you." I look up and see Abith standing next to me.
"Abith, it's been a while, have a seat." I motion for him to sit to my left.
"You don't care do you?"
"What are you talking about?"
"You are with a mortal!"
I sigh. "What's your point, Abith?"
"You are a god. A very powerful god and you're with a mortal."
I raise an eyebrow. "And I'm very happy with that."
Abith growls and stomps away.
"It is true?" I look over at Val.
"Yes. Do you have a problem with it?"
"Are you happy?"
"Yes, I'm very happy."
"Then I have no problem. So who is it?"
"Val, he doesn't have to tell you everything." Nanashi smiles at Val.
"But I wanna know."
"His name is Kei, he's an artist." I tell them.
"You're with a male?" Dragon eyes snap open a stare at me.
"Yes, why?" My eyes narrow.
"I'm sorry, Shinigami, I'm still not use to two males together."
I laugh. "One would think you'd be used to it. Especially with Val and Nanashi around." Both Val and Nanashi blush.
I open my eyes to see Heero staring at me from his bed. He looks like he just woke up. "Hi." What else could I say?
"Hn."
"You okay? You look a little shaken."
"I'm fine."
"Okay, what time is it?"
"4 am."
"Why are we up so early?"
"Hn."
"You gonna go back to sleep?"
Heero looked away. For some strange reason I got up and went over and sat next to him. "Did you have a nightmare?"
"Iie."
"Did you have a dream?"
"Hai."
"And you're upset why?"
"I don't dream."
"I see. Want to tell me about it?"
"Iie."
I sigh. "Fine, I'm gonna go back to sleep."
"Why did you wake up?"
Good question. Why did I wake up? I was dreaming and then I got this feeling that something was wrong. Something wrong with Heero. But how did I know that? Could I be getting back some of my old powers? Bet Shinii would know.
Shinii's POV
I can't believe my ears. My master knew when Heero was upset. Oh this is good. Very good. He keeps telling Wufei and me about his dream. Abith was in the last one. I wonder if Abith is behind this. It wouldn't be too far off. Abith did have a lot of fights with my master.
"I bet you're getting your powers back, master." I sit down next to him and smile. I myself will be happy once everything is fixed and my master is back to normal.
"You think so?" My master smiles down at me. "What do you think Wu-man?"
"I don't know. If you are it will take a little more for my powers to return. However Shinii may be right. Personally I hope so." Wufei opens his mouth to say something else but the door opens and Heero walks in.
"Hey Heero where ya been?" My master asks.
"Out, what are you two talking about?"
"Why you jealous?" Why is my master trying to fight with Heero? It makes no sense to fight with the one you love. And as I'm about to say something I feel something. Another call. I look at my master and he can sense something too.
"Are you all right?" Wufei asks.
I look at him. "Another call I need to go." I turn to my master; he's looking out the window. "Master you must stay here. I shall return." With that I leave and head off towards the call.
I reach the call and look around. It's nowhere special. Doesn't even look like I'm close to my master. Looks like an open field of grass. Trees outline the area and there are strange looking things in sand.
"They're called toys, Shinii. And this is a park."
I turn around to see who was speaking. "Auzii? Wha...what are you doing here? How did..."
"A demon reported to Dorma that Shinii Tenshi was in the area of a human named Relena Peacecraft. It was worried that it be out of a job. You shouldn't have let it go." Auzii walked over to one of the toys. "Sit."
I go over and sit down. "Why are you here?"
"Aa yes it seems the court is wondering how things were going. Do you know who wants to destroy your master?"
"No, though I have my suspension."
"Are Shinigami and his friends all right?"
"Yes, I believe that my master is recovering some of his powers."
"That's good. Fawlner and I are a call away if you need anything."
"Do you know where Abith is?"
Auzii raises an eyebrow. "Abith, why do you want to know?"
"I think he may be the one after my master."
"But... why? I mean, they were friends. Good friends at that."
"Yes but my master loves a mortal."
"Ah yes, I see where your going with this. Shinigami loved the mortal Kei. Shinigami never cared about rank and Abith was devoted to rank."
"You know more than you're telling."
"Yes I am. Abith is a strange god. He has always believed that he was destined for something great. Now don't get me wrong here but Shinigami wasn't always that...um how should I say... observant. Many believe that Abith felt that Shinigami would grant him greatness."
"Are you saying that Abith loved my master?"
"Maybe not love but he had something for Shinigami. When Shinigami took on Val and Nanashi and even that red dragon, he was around Abith less. Maybe Abith felt he was being forgotten? The last straw could have been Kei and you."
"I don't get it, if he liked my master that much then why turn against him?"
"Two ways to get to greatness, my dear. He could have had Shinigami help him get there. Or..."
"Or if he took out the greatest threat to a god. And then I show up so know there are two threats." Why didn't I think of this earlier? "But Abith might not be the one."
"This is true. You need to get some one drawn out into the open so you can find out." I sigh; I really can't wait until my master gets his powers back.
Duo's POV
I look down and lying in my arm is Heero. No wait this isn't Heero, it is Kei. Damn it I'm dreaming again. Kei tightens his arms around me, it feels nice. I tighten my grip and kiss his forehead. I'm not stupid, I know what has happened. I can smell it in the air. We made love. I wish I could remember it. Wish I could dream it. I feel something in the back of my head, a tingling. I feel the need to leave. Like I have to be somewhere. I start to pull away from Kei. "I need to go, koi."
"No." Kei mumbles and tighten his grip again.
"Yes, koi. I must go."
"It's lonely without you." I look down at Kei in amazement. He was lonely without me? "You may not be able to feel time, but I do. I don't like to be alone."
"I'm sorry koi, I didn't know." I lean down and kiss his forehead.
"I want something of you here. I want something to remind me of you. Something to let me know how much you love me and how much I love you." Kei sits up and wraps his arms around his knees. "Sounds stupid, doesn't it?"
"No love, it doesn't. I'll see what I can do."
Kei looks at me in surprise. "Really?"
"Really, I don't lie. I'll get you what you asked for."
Kei leans over and hugs me.
I open my eyes and look over at Heero. He's staring at me again. "Do you ever get lonely Heero?"
"Nani?"
TBC...
