Blind Death

Part 7

 

The morning sun settled on their bodies. The shine shimmering on the coffin which carried Relena Dorlian.

Old school friends, politicians, gathered around to mourn Relena’s passing.

Reporters waited outside the gates. Ready to take pictures of the funeral.

Both Quatre, Trowa, Dorothy, Lady Une, Hilde, Catherine and Sally Po were present as well.

Millardo and Noin sat together in the front never wanting to let go of each others hands.

In the shadows was Heero. Silently watching the scene.

Quatre kept looking at his watch.

Wufei and Duo were not there.

Soon her body was buried deep within the ground.

The funeral was over and people began to leave.

That’s when Quatre noticed Wufei and Duo standing behind the crowd leaving.

"You’re both late. How could you?" Quatre scolded.

Duo shook his head as to stop Quatre.

Wufei ignored him and kept on walking past him.

"Oh no!" Duo yelled while running after Wufei.

Millardo stood above Relena’s fresh grave. Noin stood behind him.

Millardo’s tears fell upon it.

"Bastard!" Was heard and Millardo turned around as Wufei punched him in the face.

People gasped and turned to see the scene.

Millardo fell and stood up quickly.

Wufei didn’t give him a chance and jumped on him.

Soon Trowa and Duo grabbed Wufei in order to hold him down.

"You bastard! Where is he? Where is my SON?" Wufei screamed.

People began to whisper amongst themselves.

Millardo stood up again and punched Wufei in the stomach.

"That’s for touching my sister." Millardo whispered in Wufei’s ear.

Then he left.

-------------------------------------------------

Later that day

 

Quatre and Trowa sat dumbfounded as Duo finished what they have found in Mexico.

"Then what happened to the boy?" Quatre asked.

"Millardo knows. He must. But why would he do such a thing?" Duo asked.

"You know, Mr. Millardo changed a lot after Relena went blind." A voice said.

They turned to see Dorothy standing at the door.

"What are you saying?" Quatre asked.

"Right after Relena’s accident, Heero Yuy left, which left Relena alone. Her brother stepped in, but he changed somehow. He became more possessive of his sister. He didn’t want anyone harming her in anyway." She said.

"Yes, but what’s your point?" Duo asked.

"He was jealous."

-------------------------------------

Noin sat in her office at the Preventers Headquarters in Europe.

She didn’t feel right about it but somehow she felt Millardo, her lover had lied to her. After hearing Wufei accuse Millardo of hiding is son brought doubts in her head.

She was looking in Millardo’s files, trying to find anything regarding Relena’s son.

So far nothing.

But she wasn’t an expert, not like Heero Yuy. But she had to try. Not for Wufei. Not for Relena. But for herself and to clear her evil thought of Millardo.

She had left him at their home which Relena, Millardo and herself shared throughout the years.

She didn’t want to go back. Too many memories.

Now that she remember, she never saw the boy’s dead body. She didn’t want to see it at that time. Relena did, but was convinced not to by her brother.

Everything was beginning to make sense. But why would Millardo do such a thing? And to his sister? She just didn’t understand.

----------------------------------

Heero Yuy sat alone in his bed in his motel room.

He was tired and devastated.

He remembered Wufei and Duo entering the cemetery. He left at that point. He didn’t want to see him. The man who had touched Relena in her most intimate parts. So he didn’t see the scene after the funeral.

With Relena’s death, knowing about Wufei and Relena’s one time affair was emotionally disturbing.

He loved Relena. And he knew that she loved him. But what had happened?

How did she and Wufei come to have a child?

How he hated Wufei and Relena. But they weren’t to blame. He had left and she had moved on with her life.

He tried to move on without her but found that he couldn’t. He had relationships, they weren’t really relationships, they were intimate encounters one could say.

He was a man and he did have needs. And apparently Relena had done the same.

But with Wufei? It was too much.

There was a knocking at his door.

He didn’t want to talk to anyone. He wanted to be alone. He was meant to be alone.

The knocking continued.

Finally Heero stood up and opened his door.

It was Duo who had done the knocking. Behind him stood Trowa, Quatre, and Dorothy.

"What?" Heero asked annoyed.

"The coffin was empty, Heero. And we can’t find Wufei anywhere." Duo explained. "We think this is connected to Relena’s death somehow."

Heero stared at Duo.

Yes it was true. Relena’s murderer hadn’t been caught.

He was on a mission to kill the person who had slaughtered his once lover.

Now the coffin, which her son should have been buried in, was empty.

What the hell was going?
