Sorry for the Delay on the chapter 2 People!!! *Bows appologetically*

Out in the woods nearby the Darlain estates...
Heero woke up with a major headache, and, as he sat up, fell back down on the Buck's back, remembering the accident. Well, some of it anyway.
"Where you going anyway?" Heero muttered as the buck leaped across a small creek. Heero began to pass out again so he tried to focus on the surroundings. Instead, he noticed the splotch of blood coming from his head. 'What's next? I fall off the deer and land on my ass?'
Heero then looked ahead of them and noticed they were going uphill, away from the estate. Struggling to get off and walk back, Heero feinted from loss of blood, and the injury. The buck merely continued on its way up the mountain side.

At the Darlain estates...
Relena was pacing at her balcony windows when Elyn came up with Catherine in search of her.
"Miss Relena?" Catherine hesitantly called out after knocking. Elyn merely walked straight in and joined Relena at her window.
"...He'll be fine." Elyn said with as much confidence as possible. Relena nodded and smiled weakly at both of them, but continued to stare out at the grounds.
"...Elyn...Don't tell me half-truths just to make me feel better." Relena said suddenly as both Catherine and Elyn were leaving the room. "You could at least tell me what you know, in truth."
Elyn smiled slightly at her and bowed her head. "Even if your country isn't a monarchy anymore, you still have the skills of a princess. I don't know where he is... But I do know, he is alive. That much, is true. Relena, if you're that concerned, why not go and find him yourself?"
"Absolutely not!!!" Zechs yelled as he stepped in the room. However, Elyn's suggestion sparked Relena's determination.
"And why not, brother?" Relena asked, angry for the first time tonight. "I am not a princess or a politition who hates getting her own hands dirty. I turned in my resignation, remember?"
"Aparrently, habits die hard..." Dorthy replied as she followed the others, who were curious as to why everyone was upstairs. "Miss Relena, we only want to protect you, as we always have."
"And what of Heero?" Relena demanded heatedly. She had Dorthy up against the wall. Elyn merely shook her head in humor. The other pilots were also concerned for the absent pilot, however knew Heero could take care of himself.
"Princess, Heero's a tough cookie! He's probably driving down the road to here as we speak." Duo cut into Relena's temper. However Relena would not remain consoled.
"I am not searching for him if I simply meet him on the road in to the estate am I?" Relena asked Noin, Sally, Elyn and Catherine and Dorthy, who hid behind her when Relena's temper cooled down.
"Nope, can't say it is." Elyn replied sarcastically.
"Not since we will "wait" with you." Sally added. Noin and the others agreed to this.
Pagan entered the room with everyone's coats and jackets. "May I suggest that everyone dress warmly? It is getting colder by the hour."
Relena thanked Pagan and asked him to take the rest of the night off. Zechs grumbled to himself as he followed his sister and the others out into the night.
"I spy, with my little eye somethi-" Duo was saying as they all walked down the lane. This was the tenth time.
"Snow." Wufei growled from underneath his hat.
"You got it again!"
Elyn smacked Duo upside the head, who merely smiled innocently. Relena on the other hand was out infront with Noin and Zechs, watching her breath mingle with everyone else's in the crisp snowy air. She was about to say turn around and go back when she smelled smoke in the air. Quatre and Trowa also caught wiff and ran ahead.
"What is it?" Relena called out to them when they reached the top of a hill that led into a curving road. The only way out besides the main entrance.
"It's a car!" Quatre called out as Trowa ran toward it.
"A car? Is it Heero's?" Catherine asked as Dorthy caught up with her.
When they all reached the top of the hill, all they could see at first was smoke. As the wind pushed the smoke aside, Relena cried out in alarm.
Heero's car was upside down, knocked up against a tree. Two of the tires were dislodged and spread out on the road. One of the other tires was imbedded in a tree trunk. A car door was in the snow 15 feet away. The front of the car was 4feet in the air.
"Heero..." Relena whispered as she sank into the foot of snow that covered the ground.
