Battlestar Andromeda Part 15

Battlestar Andromeda
Medical Bay

Heero felt a wave of dizziness race through his body and his knees threatened to give out. Through the ringing of his ears, he heard Dr. Po call his name and then he felt two hands guide him to a chair along the wall. Taking a few deep breaths he saw the spots start to leave his eyes. He looked down to see a glass of water being pushed into his hands.

"Here Mr. Ambassador, drink this." said Sally.

Heero took a few sips of the cool water and immediately started to feel a little better. A couple more sips after that and he gave the glass back to the doctor. "Thank you." he said.

"You're welcome." she said softly.

"Please doctor, how is he?" Heero asked his voice cracking.

Taking a deep breath herself, Sally nodded and began, "I am not going to lie to you Mr. Ambassador, the Commander is in grave condition. We almost lost him on our way here. As you know both his right leg and arm are broken." At Heero's nod she continued. "On top of the breaks, the Commander also suffered from a severe concussion, three broken ribs, a punctured lung, as well as some internal bleeding. We have managed to stop the bleeding, set all of his broken bones and repaired the lung."

Heero was quiet for a minute before he asked, "When can I see him?"

"Right now he is in the Accelerator Unit. He will be in the unit for the next twenty-four hours. This unit will help to speed his healing. By the time he is out of the unit, his bones will have knitted back together and his lung will have been healed. For the concussion however, he may suffer from headaches and some prolonged dizziness but that should heal itself over time." Sally stood up and started walking down the hall to another set of doors, Heero quickly following. "Before I take you in to see the Commander, I will need you to sign some consent forms for his treatment. Normally we use the next of kin's signature as an authorization for treatment until we contact the families, but since you are here, we can get it out of the way faster."

Heero stopped in his tracks. "What?" he asked.

Sally stopped also and turned to look at Heero. "You are named as the Commander's next of kin. As his husband, you must be the one to sign his treatment papers."

"How did you find out...?" Heero asked.

"While I was on my way to the landing tubes, I accessed the Commander's file. When we pull the file up due to an emergency, the first page lists the next of kin. I have to admit I was surprised when your name came up, so I then had my computer access the World Council files to find out if you and the man named as the Commander's husband were one and the same." Sally didn't add that she had also checked to see if they were still legally married.

"I would have thought he had changed that." Heero said softly. Deep inside Heero was happy that Duo had never changed the information. It gave him a sliver of hope that one day they would be able to fix the problems that had tore them apart. His next thought was to ask the doctor to keep the information quiet, but he quickly pushed it aside; he wanted everyone to know that they were still married.

"Mr. Ambassador." Sally said quietly, "Let's get those papers sign so that you can see him."

Ten minutes later Heero was sitting next to a clear tube. Inside that tube lay his husband. His body still looking bruised and battered. He wished that he could hold Duo's hand, but knew that it would not happen until tomorrow. Instead, he put his hand on the glass near Duo's head. He felt the tears once again slide silently down his cheeks, his voice coming out as a broken whisper.

"I am so sorry. Please forgive me Duo. I should never have left you last night." He leaned forward and pressed his forehead to the glass. "I should never have said all those awful things to you. I was hurt and I took it out on you when I should have stopped and seen your pain as well." There was a slight pause before he continued, "I love you Duo. I know you don't believe me, but I do. And I promise you I will do everything I can to prove it to you. I am not letting you go. I finally found you and there is now no place that you can run to that I won't find you."

Captain Merquise's Quarters

Zechs hurried along the corridor towards his quarters. He felt extremely guilty over leaving Wufei alone like he did. His only thought at the time though had been getting into his fighter and saving his commander. He stopped in front of his door and took a deep breath. Placing his hand on the palm activated lock; he waited for his door to slide open.

Stepping inside he looked around trying to find Wufei. A frown crossed his face when he couldn't find the young man. Walking further into his living quarters he sighed in relief when he found him lying on the couch sound asleep. He spent a few moments looking at the sleeping figure lying in front of him. He couldn't deny the surge of lust that swept through his body. The young man was simply gorgeous. However, he needed to push those thoughts aside. There was no way that he could ever take advantage of Wufei like that. He had been through so much in his young life and adding sex to the equation would only end up hurting him. Zechs reached down and tenderly pushed a silky black tendril back, the action was enough to wake the sleeping man. A slight smile crossed his face at the cute way Wufei blinked up at him.

"Master!" exclaimed Wufei, quickly getting up and dropping to his knees in front of him. Zechs knelt down and put his hand under Wufei's chin, lifting his face up to look at him.

"Wufei, here on the Andromeda I am no longer your master." At Wufei's scared expression he hurriedly added, "I am not leaving you Wufei, you will be staying here with me until you feel ready to be on your own."

"You...you don't want me anymore?" Wufei asked. "Why? Have I done something wrong? I promise I won't cause any trouble here. I will stay out of your way. I ...I will keep your rooms clean..."

"Wufei." Zechs said cutting off Wufei's words. "Please listen to me. You've done nothing wrong. I am trying to explain to you that here on the Andromeda, it is nothing like Aloria. Here we do not own slaves. Everyone is free. That is what I want for you. I am giving you your freedom."

"But I don't want to be free master!" exclaimed Wufei, "I want to serve you, like I'm supposed to." Suddenly, Wufei grabbed Zechs, and before the tall man could protest, kissed him.

Startled, Zechs had to grab Wufei so that he didn't fall, his arms wrapping around the young man's waist. He moaned as Wufei deepened the kiss, tasting the man for the first time. He felt one of Wufei's hands creep slowly up to rest on his nape, the other hand lowered going straight for his cock. His now very hard cock. His mind screamed at him to pull away but his body overruled it, enjoying the feel of Wufei's hands and mouth. He pulled Wufei closer, their hips touching, when suddenly his head cleared. While his body was hard and excited Wufei's was not.

Breaking the kiss, Zechs pulled Wufei's hand from his cock. Taking a few deep breaths to clear his head, he slowly stood up pulling Wufei with him. Once standing he moved to the other side of the room willing the hardness between his legs to go away. He mentally bereted himself for letting things go so far. He had sworn to himself that he would not take advantage of Wufei and here he was with a hard on, while pictures of a naked Wufei flashed through his mind.

"Master." Wufei said as he started walking towards Zechs.

Zechs felt his lust start to stir again and knew if he didn't leave he would end up giving in to the temptation before him. Walking quickly towards the door he said, "I have to leave. I will be back later."

"But master..."

"I will have someone bring you something to eat." Zechs stopped at the door but refused to turn around. He didn't think he was strong enough to resist those eyes if he tried. "I promise I will be back soon. I just need to..." Unable to finish the sentence without sounding pathetic and needy he walked out the door.

Wufei stood in the middle of the room watching his master as he left. Once again his master had denied him and it left him confused. He walked over to the couch and sank down, tucking his feet under him. He didn't understand what had happened. He had been sure that his master had wanted him and that this time he would take him like he was supposed to. Maybe he was doing something wrong, but no he had done everything he had been taught to do. He had felt the proof of that with his own hand. Why then did his master refuse him?

Wufei looked down at his hands and saw that they had started to shake slightly. He frowned as he realized that it had been almost a full day without taking his pills. Standing he went to the small bag that he had brought from Aloria and opened it to pull out the small pill case. Opening the case he pulled one of the little blue pills out and without anything to wash it down, swallowed it. Within minutes he felt the familiar numbing feeling, everything in his body feeling calm. He would have to remember to take the pills on time now that the slave masters were not there to give them to him. He had enough for quite a long time but he knew that he would have to one day find the ingredients to make some more. He had been taught how to make them in case he had been given to a master that would take him off world.

Wufei walked back over to the couch and sank back down. Laying his head back, he waited for the pill to fully take effect. He didn't like the pills but he had been taking them for so long that he could not stop without feeling like he would die without them. He had tried once, long ago, when he had tried to rebel against the slave masters. It had been around the time that he had first experienced having a wet dream. All slaves were closely monitored when they reached the age of puberty. As soon as they showed signs of sexual awakening they were put on the pills. These pills would in effect keep all slaves from having any type of sexual pleasure, for slaves were to please their masters not to have pleasure themselves.

After taking the pills for a few months both he and Tor-il did not like the effects that it had on them and so decided to stop taking them. After about a week of palming the pills and then throwing them away they started to feel a burning pain throughout their bodies. They tried hard to hide it from the slave masters but soon the pain was too much and it soon came to the attention of the slave masters. It was then that they both found out the horrible truth, that they would have to continue to take the pills or suffer the pain.

He never knew if Tor-il ever found a way to stop taking the pills, his friend always seemed to enjoy the attentions of the King. He wished he could talk to his friend one more time. Tor-il always seemed to understand when he needed a shoulder to lean on. He had so many questions he wanted to ask his friend. Wufei curled up into a ball on the couch feeling tired, as his eyes slowly closed his last thought was of his master and how he wished he could feel pleasure at the hands of the handsome man.

* Author's Note- I want to take this time to give credit for the idea of the accelerator unit to the wonderful author of the Taming Riki series-Kira Takenouchi. In her series any sort of injury would be sprayed with a can of accelerator which would heal them within 24 hours if minor or a few weeks if a major injury. I thought the idea of an accelerator unit would fit such a futuristic time. I truly believe in giving credit to those whose idea's I share so thank you Kira.
