Created by Love, Blood and Death Part 4
Shinii's POV
I enter his dream again. I know I really shouldn't but I want to know how he can see me through the day. I never actually showed myself to him. And I don't want him to dream of his judgment day. So, I decide to control of the dream a little. His love's house shall be the setting.
"Where are we?" He walks around the small room of the house.
"Your lover's house." I sit in his love's chair.
He looks at me. "I don't have a lover."
"You did." No lover, that means he and Heero don't love each other anymore. Poor daddy.
"What did you do to that thing today?"
"The demon? I killed it. I took its soul and destroyed it."
"Why?"
"It would have killed you."
"So you destroyed it?" He seems shocked.
"Yes, I am to keep you from harm."
"And while we're on the subject. Who are you?" He looks at me. His violet eyes taking in every part of me. He lingers on my wings and my hair and finally my eyes.
"I am the First Appointed Angel of Death. Created by my master Shinigami." Might as well tell him the good stuff first.
His eyes get big. "So I'm to die." It's a statement not a question.
"I hope not. I'm to protect you from destruction."
"Why send an angel of death to protect me?"
"I cannot tell you that. You must remember."
"Do you have a name? Calling you 'little girl' just ain't gonna cut it."
"Shinii Tenshi."
"Nice name."
"Thank you, master."
"Why do you call me that?"
"You must remember."
"So, what was my lover like?"
I look at him for a moment. If I tell him that Heero was his lover, what will he do? I decide to change the subject. "You have interesting friends."
"You're changing the subject."
"Hai."
"God! You talk like Heero! One word or as damn little as possible!"
I blink. "Your point?" I raise an eyebrow.
His lover and I use to do this to him a lot. It was fun to get at my master. He would get all flustered and finally break something. His love and I would just laugh and then hug him.
He sighs. "So what's so damn interesting about my friends. Other than the fact that we're all Gundam pilots?"
"They have immortal souls." He looks at me oddly.
"The blond...um..."
"Quatre."
"Yeah Quatre, he's a demon."
"Nani! Quatre? Sweet, innocent, Quatre a demon?You're nuts!"
"Never judge a book by its cover. Demons can be just as innocent looking as an angel. Not all demons are that bad. They are simply created by darkness. Doesn't mean they cannot ascend into the light."
"God, how do you know these things?"
"I'm the First Appointed Angel of Death I know lots of things. Like the guy with the ponytail is really a dragon. He just doesn't know it."
"Wufei? You know some how I can see that. So what about Trowa?"
"I think he might be a shadow."
"A shadow?"
"Yes, immortals that blend into anything. They are shadows. You know a shadow follows you. It's complicated."
"And Heero?"
Duo's POV
She doesn't answer. She knows something and for some reason I don't like it. She looks away and fiddles with the hem of her skirt. Hmm looks like I'll have to go fishing. "What it's not like he was my lover, right?"
"The forces of light wanted him." Huh? Her voice has that far off tone to it. It's almost like she doesn't know that I can hear her. "You wouldn't let them take him. You wouldn't let them take any of them.
They were all punished." She turns her eyes on me, she's crying. I feel like I'm missing something. Something very important.
"They wouldn't punish me," She begins to talk again. "because I follow my master. I do as I'm ordered to do. But the truth was you never ordered me to do anything. I did it so, I could make you proud of me. I wanted you to praise me. You always praised me, always told how much you were proud of me. But it wasn't enough. I was afraid you'd get rid of me and create another." She's sobbing now, blood red tears stream down her cheeks. She hic-ups and sniffles.
I can't take it, I pull her into my arms and hold her rocking her back and forth. "It's okay, everything will be all right." I say over and over again.
"I need to go. I shouldn't have come here. You can't tell any one about what I said." She starts to fade from my arms. "I love you daddy."
The last said so quietly I almost didn't hear it. I probably wasn't soppose to. She called me 'daddy'.
I wake up and look over and see Heero looking at me. He's sitting up and looks like he's been awake for awhile. "I have a mission." He states it as if it like the weather.
"Huh?" I sit up and blink. "Now?"
"I leave at before daylight."
"How long?"
"A day, two at most."
I look around the room for the little girl, Shinii.
"What are you looking for?" He raises an eyebrow.
"Nothing!" I can't help it, I jumped. But I found Shinii, sitting on the end of his bed. She looks scared.
TBC...
