#...# : Duo's language From Far Away Part 2
"This is
nuts! We're not gonna make it!" Duo cursed, he pasted his chest closer to the
wall and walked to the side like acrab. They were on a mountain, walking on a
footpath, which just happened to be as wide as one of their feet. To their back
was the mountain, and to their front they could see tree covered ground far away
down. Duo tried to move his foot one step closer to Heero, who was in front of
him. Heero looked at him, raising his hand as if offering. Duo immediately took
the offered hand. Just then a gust of wind blew so hard it caused Duo to tumble
off the ledge, pulling Heero along with him.
//This baka will not
survive if I let him hit the ground first.// Heero growled and pulled Duo into
his embrace. He flipped their bodies so his back was now facing the trees below
while Duo was on top of him. Their fall was slowed by branches of trees, and
brought to a stop in a pile of bushes.
"Hn." Heero snorted. //Why did I
save this baka?// He looked at Duo who had his eyes closed and his head buried
in Heero's neck. Heero could feel Duo's soft breath against his skin.
//Did he fall asleep again?// Unconsciously, Heero ran his hand to brush
the back of Duo's head. //His hair feels like silk.// Then Heero moved his hand
down, grabbing the braid and caressing it. Duo groaned and stirred, causing
Heero's mind to snap out of his thoughts.
"Ouch!" Duo raised his head as
Heero yanked the braid. "I'm still alive?" Duo asked doubtfully. He looked up to
the mountain where they had just been. Duo's jaw dropped, "That has to be at
LEAST 30 stories high, and we're still breathing?!" Duo checked his pulse, just
to be sure.
"Itai." Duo felt his braid being yanked again and he looked
down to find that he was on top of Heero, again. "Whoaa, twice in a day! Sorry,
I'm really sorry, but I...hmmmphhh!!!" Again, Heero put the braid in Duo's mouth
and shoved him away. He stood up and felt a pain in his right leg. //Hn, it's
only dislocated, nothing serious.// Heero sat and held his dislocated leg,
prepared to set it back to the right place.
Duo had managed to pull his
braid out of his mouth when he heard a nasty 'CRACK'. He looked at Heero whose
hands were still on the offending leg. "You set your own leg!????" Duo knelt
near Heero and put his hand on Heero's leg. "It must hurt a lot." Duo began
massaging the leg carefully.
Heero stared at Duo. //Why is this baka
massaging my leg? Does he think setting the leg will hurt me a lot? Hn, I have
been hurt worse than this.// Oblivious to Heero's staring, Duo kept massaging
the leg. //It feels so good. He really knows how to massage and make a person
feel so........NO! I don't have time to relax and I don't need this kind of
distraction!// Heero shook his head and shoved Duo's hands away. Then he stood
up and walked away as if nothing had happened to his leg.
Duo just
looked at him and then he shrugged. "Seems you don't feel the pain, Heero. I
wonder what will make you wince..." Duo trailed off and stood up. He looked
around and noticed a young man was lying not far from him.
"Heero,
there's a man over there." Duo pulled Heero's tunic lightly and pointed at the
man.
"Hn." Heero looked in the direction Duo pointed towards and noticed
the man too. He approached the man and checked him. //He is unconscious and has
a fever. I will have to find some herbs for him.// He turned to Duo and pointed
to the ground.
"Kokoni iro." *Stay here*Heero walked away, but Duo
followed him. //This baka doesn't seem to understand.// Heero turned around and
put his left arm on Duo's shoulder while his right arm pointed at the ground
again. "Kokoni iro." Heero used light pressure and gave a little squeeze to
Duo's shoulder.
Duo looked confused for a moment but then he nodded.
//Good, he understands.// Heero released his hold and went to search for
the needed herbs.
Duo watched Heero until he was out of his sight. He
understood what Heero wanted him to do this time as he turned his gaze to the
man. //This is the first man I have met since Heero. Maybe I can learn their
language.//
(Since Duo wanted to learn the language, Heero's language
will be written in English while Duo's original language will be formatted into
--> #bla...bla..bla# ) 
"HEEROO!!" Duo's voice was full of fear. Heero jumped at his tone and
ran back to see what was wrong. //What is that baka getting into now? And why
should I help him anyway?// Heero could see Duo now. Duo was not alone. There
was a man standing in front of him, holding a sword, and a rat-like-animal was
resting on the man's shoulder.
"You are the leader of those thieves!"
Another man's voice was heard. Looking out of the corner of his eye, Heero
noticed the unconscious man had awakened but it seemed the man had some
additions to his injuries. Heero assumed the man, who was in front of Duo, added
said injuries.
"You managed to run away yesterday but not this time. And
I see that you have another friend." The thief looked at Duo. "Looks like this
one will make a good price at the market. Your face is quite beautiful, let's
see how your body is." Heero heard Duo yelp in panic and the sound of clothes
being ripped.
Without thinking, Heero charged forward. A strange feeling
emerged in his chest but Heero couldn't put a name on it, this being the first
time he felt that way. All he knew was that he didn't want anybody else to touch
the long haired boy, only he could touch and hold the beautiful boy since he was
the one who found him. Or so he kept telling himself.
Heero unsheathed
his sword and swung it at the thief.
"Argh!" The sword hit the thief on
the shoulder, Heero pushed the sword down deeper, wanting to finish the man off
but suddenly the man disappeared. Duo's jaw dropped when he saw the thief
materialize far away from Heero.
"How dare you hurt me, you will pay for
this, the next time we meet." After saying this, the thief disappeared again.
Duo's mind tried to register what just happened. The thief had ripped
his clothes and teleported twice. No one in L2 too could do that, really no
*human* could do that. He only read about the teleportation in Sci-Fi comics and
novels. And now a man was doing a teleportation act in front of him. Shocked,
surprised, and scared, he started to tremble. Heero didn't seem surprised. His
cold face didn't change when he saw the thief teleport. He just stared in the
direction where the thief disappeared and then turned to look at Duo, and
noticed the trembling.
Heero was confused, he was never good at dealing
with feelings. He kept looking at Duo and when he didn't show any signs of
calming down, Heero knew he had to do something to stop the trembling. He
approached Duo, raised his right arm to the back of Duo's head and his other
hand encircled Duo's waist, pulling the trembling boy into his embrace.
Falling into Heero's embrace, Duo felt warm and safe. He raised his arms
and returned the embrace, pressing himself closer to the warm source that was
Heero's body. "Heero...." Duo sighed and leaned his head on Heero's shoulder.
His trembling had stopped but Duo still didn't want to pull away. Not when he
received the affection, moreover it was from the boy whose blue eyes made his
heartbeat faster every time he looked at them, there was no way he would let it
go. He closed his eyes and felt Heero's heartbeat make a steady rhythm together
with his own heartbeat.
Heero hugged Duo tightly. He could feel Duo's
bare skin touching his body and Duo's hair brushing his neck. Never in his life
had he felt a hug could feel so good and so comfortable for he was never been
hugged before. He was lost in the feelings he just found.
"Uhm....pardon
me...." A man's voice broke the serene state between them. Heero growled and
pulled away from the embrace. Duo was dazed for a moment but then smiled
sheepishly.
"I don't mean to interrupt you, but I desperately need your
help. My leg is broken and I can't get into my cart." The man pointed at the
cart near him. Heero lifted the man into the cart and hocked the horse up while
Duo tended to the man's injuries.
"You are not from here, are you? Your
language is different," said the man to Duo. Duo just stared at him, not knowing
what to say or how to react.
"His whole family has been killed, and I
found him yesterday. He followed me since then," said Heero to the man.
"You are really kind then. Oh yeah, I got something for him." The man
searched inside his cart. He took out some tunics. "Heh, actually I'm a
merchant. Look at these tunics. They will fit both of you perfectly. I'll give
them to you for 100 credits."
Heero raised an eyebrow,
"................75."
"What? How could you still make a bargain with a
wounded person?" The merchant tried to act innocently.
"Since there is a
man who charged his own savior." Heero took the clothes and handed them to Duo.
"Kigaero," said Heero, hoping that Duo would understand.
To his
surprised Duo nodded and put on one of the tunics. Then Duo said, "Kigaero."
"Wow, he is trying to learn our language," said the merchant. Heero just
looked at Duo. Looks like he had underestimated the braided boy.
"Whoaaaaaa...." It
was night when they entered a village and Duo was amazed. He noticed the houses
were built from stone and almost all the men wore tunics, but they didn't carry
any sword like Heero.
Heero stopped the cart in front of a house. He
jumped down and knocked on the door.
"What?" A big man opened the door.
He looked at Heero who turned to look at the cart. The man noticed the wounded
merchant and opened his door widely. "Another patient huh? Come in."
"Thank you, Doctor," said the merchant as Duo helped him inside. "And
what do you mean by 'another patient'?"
"Many soldiers came here this
afternoon. Looks like they have been knocked out by the force of a greater
power."
"Why are there many soldiers in this village anyway?", asked the
merchant.
"Well, many prophets said Shinigami had appeared in the golden
forest near this village but someone has taken him. So the soldiers from another
kingdoms accused each other and ended up in fighting" The doctor said while
cleaning the injuries.
"Shinigami??? The only person who can summon the
Perfect Soldier? The said monster, which has the greatest destruction power? "
The merchant was surprised.
"Yes, Shinigami. I wonder what he looks like
and what kind of monster the Perfect Soldier is," said the doctor while
bandaging the merchant.
Duo listened to their conversation, but didn't
understand what they were talking about. He only managed to catch some words
like Shinigami and Perfect Soldier. He glanced at Heero who was leaning near the
door and found the short haired boy tense when the doctor and the merchant said
the word "monster".
His gaze was interrupted by a hard knock on the
door. Some soldiers pushed the door open and walked in.
"We heard that
some strangers were in your place," said one of the soldiers who seemed to be
their leader.
"Yes, here they are. The boys brought this wounded man. It
seems the thieves have attacked them during their journey," said the doctor.
"A merchant and two boys....they seem suspicious." The leader stared at
Heero strangely and then he turned to his men, "You two check the cart outside
and the rest look over the man and the long haired boy while I interrogate the
other boy." At his command, the soldiers moved.
Duo saw some soldiers
approached. He looked at Heero who raised his finger and pointed to the ground.
Understanding that Heero ordered him to stay calm, he let the soldiers verified
the merchant and him.
The leader licked his upper lip and approached
Heero.
"Judging from your clothing, you are a warrior. Is that right?"
The leader asked Heero.
"Hn."
"I'm asking you a question, boy,"
the leader held Heero's chin and lifted it up, "answer the question."
"Yes."
"Good boy. Now open your clothes."
Heero's eyes
widened.
"What? Are you hiding something beneath your tunic?" The leader
smirked, his hand descending on Heero's neck now.
Heero growled and
opened his tunic, revealing a well-muscled body. Duo held his breath. Perfect is
a word that described what Duo thought about Heero now. Perfect body, perfect
muscles, perfect chest......Duo shook his head //NO NO NO!!! Don't think about
it!!!.....but his body is really gorgeous....// Duo was busy fighting with his
own mind.
"As a warrior, your body is not disappointing." The leader
moved his hand down from Heero's neck to Heero's chest. Duo was breathing faster
now, he wanted to be in the leader's place, touching Heero's body. He could see
the leader stroke the firm muscles and 'accidentally' brushed one of the
nipples. Duo felt anger and jealous at the same moment. Anger because he was not
the one who touched Heero and jealous because he couldn't touch Heero like the
leader was at the moment.
But to everyone's surprise, Heero abruptly
pinned the leader's hand, which was wandering on his chest, with his left hand
while his right hand held up the leader's sword against the man's neck. "And as
a warrior, I can kill you easily." Heero's voice was dangerous. The leader felt
the sword on his neck and his face went white.
The room was silent until
the leader spoke up nervously," I believe you are really a warrior."
Heero released the leader's hand and moved his sword from the leader's
throat.
"Let's go." The leader left the house as fast as he could,
followed closely by the other soldiers.
Heero snorted and put on his
tunic again then he walked to where Duo and the merchant were. They quickly set
their jaws, which had dropped down without their knowledge when they saw Heero's
speed and skill, back to the original place.
"We will stay at an inn, I
assume you will spend your night here." Heero looked at the merchant and then
looked at the doctor.
"Uhm yeah, I still have to tend his broken leg."
The doctor said nervously.
Heero nodded and then pulled Duo out of the
house. #Heero, you are really
great. Did ya' see the look on the man's face when you held his own sword to his
throat? His face looked like a hunk of cotton! I bet he never thought you would
do that...# Duo spoke along the way. Heero, who didn't understand Duo's
language, had had enough. //Doesn't this baka get tired of speaking?// He glared
at Duo and said "Omae o
korosu!"
Duo remembered he has heard the
words once and he tried to repeat the words, "Onna...o...kisu.." *I'll kiss a
girl*
"Omae o korosu!"
"Omae.. o..kisu" *I'll kiss you*
Red face, Heero glared at the braided boy, "OMAE O KOROSU!"
"Omae... o...korosu." Duo smiled, this time he managed to say the right
words.
Heero just stared, dumbfounded as Duo's smile widened. Then
he sighed and walked toward the inn while mumbling, "Why did I save this
baka....."
Duo just stared at him in confused and innocent way.
