            Heero continued to type on his laptop, his whole concentration upon his mission.  He ignored what his senses told him, since he knew that they were his ‘friends.’  Finally, he knew that they were getting impatient, so he acknowledged them.

            “You want to talk about Nataku and the Nymph?”

            Two figures broke from the shadows surrounding the room, and went nearer to the busy boy.  “How do you know that they are the magical beings that you told us?” one of them asked.

            “I knew them in the past.  I am a friend of theirs.”

            The other frowned.  “Why won’t you tell us more, Yuy?”

            “Because now is not the time for you to know everything.”  Heero stopped typing and slightly turned around.  “How come you two are here?”

            Two other figures came out of the shadows.  “Heero, buddy.  Don’t we visit you for a reason?” the braided one chided.

            Heero contemplated them for a moment.  “Yes.”

            The other one sighed.  “Duo, stop it.  Heero, we’re here to ask some questions.”

            Heero nodded.  “I know.  You want to know if there is a possibility that the others would become victims.”  He stared at the two.  “Hilde and Dorothy will both survive, even though they are not virgins.”  He smirked as he saw the other two blushed.  “As for what they will become, I can’t tell you yet.  Be assured that they will survive.”  He turned his gaze to the first two.  “You want to know if there is any chance that you could take the potions that Meiran and Midii took.”  He turned back to his laptop.  “From what I gathered, there is no possibility that the small labs have any of the potions.  The one on the Moon was the headquarters; thus, the only one who had the potions.”  He swiftly turned to them.  “Don’t worry about it.  I know that you had talked to them and want to ease their pain.  And to try to understand them and be in equal footing with them, you want to become like them.  They won’t like it but they know that they can’t dissuade you two.”

            “If you already knew what we wanted, Yuy, then you should know that what we want is now unreachable.”

            “Not quite, Wufei.  You see, before I blew up the lab, I gathered everything they have in their data, including how to make the potions.  I wanted to use it to see if I could find a cure for Relena.”

            “Where is it now?” the tall one asked.

            Heero tapped his temple.  “Right here.”

            Duo grinned.  “Heero buddy, I know that you have a disk somewhere.  I mean, you just can’t –“

            “Yes, I do have that disk, Duo,” Heero interrupted.  “But it is with me, and no one can take it away from me.  Just know that I have the knowledge with me and I can change Trowa and Wufei to become the equals of the two girls.”

            Trowa stared at the Perfect Soldier with his visible eye.  “Will we survive?”

            Silence permeated the room.  The others waited for the dark angel’s answer, who hadn’t replied back.  He finally returned to his laptop, and continued typing.  The others couldn’t deduct an answer from that.  Wufei unclenched and clenched his fists, trying to control his temper.

Duo shook his head.  “Man, Heero, you could at least ease Trowa and Wufei’s mind.”

“Just wait and bear the consequences.  See if you’ll survive or not.”

Quatre put his hand on his best friend’s shoulder.  “Heero won’t tell us everything.  He’s not ready.  Don’t think about it too much.”  He gave a tentative smile.  “Or else you’ll worry Midii more.”

Trowa nodded.  He returned his gaze back to the typing boy.  “When will it be ready?”

“I’ll give it to you as soon as I find the ingredients from the labs.”

Wufei, who had calmed down, gave a parting remark before he left.  “We’re counting on you, Yuy.”

The others left soon after.  Questions still left unanswered, but leaving them with no choice but to let Heero deal with it.
