Disclaimers: I don't own GW. I'm poor. This ficlet is meant for entertainment only! It has yaoi, mention of NCS, evil people, two Preventers with VERY nasty tempers, and other things that might offend. If you can't deal, don't read.
"Relena is not a threat," the man on the video screen tried desperately to convince his pets of that fact.
"She threatened Duo," Heero rumbled.
"She has to be dealt with," Treize agreed.
"I'm telling you this is a mistake!"
Two sets of feral eyes remained unconvinced.
"It's part of a plan to clear Duo of all charges," the man said frantically. "She gets all the charges out in the open and when they are all proven false, no one can talk about Duo behind his back. No one can do anything to hurt him once Relena is done. See?"
The pair nodded slowly, an unholy hunger leaving their eyes.
"Good boys," the speaker soothed. "Now go take care of your Duo. I'm sure he needs looking after right now. Maybe even a little comforting."
Treize cut the connection.
The speaker was left in his darkened office with only his partner.
"They're getting out of control!" The man huffed.
"What did you expect?" The other shadow laughed, a dark, deadly sound. "The program was designed for Zechs and Trowa. Treize and Heero were sent on the mission at the last minute and it was our only chance. I'm surprised it's working as well as it is."
"I am very good at what I do," the first sniffed.
"Yes, you are. The combination of drugs, rape, torture and guilt proved to be remarkably effective."
"Yes, well once I knew who they felt protective for, they were mine."
"But Treize and Heero weren't in love with Duo."
"Quite right. Treize was as straight as the day is long and Heero never thought about sex. The dear General saw Duo as the younger brother he never had. Heero thought of him as a best and dear friend."
"And you turned those simple emotions into an obsession. One even Maxwell doesn't about."
"Again, yes. Using the drugs to cloud their minds, I used a voice synthesizer to make is sound as if Duo were being raped in their stead. Paying for their stubbornness as it were. I kept them separate, but made them listen to the same thing. Oh how they cried, begging to be taking in the boy's place. I was hard pressed not to fall over laughing."
'Then came the hard part."
"Getting them to fixate on Duo." The man shrugged. "I altered a whore to look like the boy and he played his part to the hilt. Almost felt sorry for killing him later. He was thrown into each man's cell looking battered and bruised. Trembling, terrified, and when they went to comfort him, he asked each one to...how did the boy put it..oh yes...'show me what it's supposed to be like.' Now who could refuse such a request, especially with all the things I had them high on."
"So they develop a thing for your 'Duo' and then you brutalize him in front of them."
"Causing each to develop deep seated feelings of protectiveness. From there all I had to do was convince them that ANY threat to Maxwell was unacceptable. All we have to do is show them a picture, say that person threatens Duo and the target is as good as dead. Who would ever suspect the leader of the Specials and his Second of being the assassin everyone is chasing."
"They have become far more brutal in the recent attacks. Why is that?"
"Well, the program isn't perfect. It had to be modified for both men and due to their different personality types, some things step outside the bounds of what we expect. For one thing, I never thought they would actually ambush Maxwell at his house and fuck him until he couldn't sit for a week. For another, the pair are almost animalistic in their need to keep their "mate" safe. I suspect the amount of drugs we were required to give them may have permanently altered their brain chemistry."
"So they'll be like this forever?"
"It is very possible. But no worries. As long as Duo Maxwell exists, we can control them. I programmed them to think we are the only ones who know every threat to their dear lover."
"Fine by me. The Collins killing just makes me cold. He wasn't even on our list."
"Then consider him a bonus. Life is good. Should the Preventers discover what was done to Treize and Heero, the men will take Duo and bring him to us; the only safe place they will be able to think of. No matter what happens, we will always command the two most deadly men on Earth or the Colonies. Nothing can stop us."
The two men left the room, never noticing the small device planted under the desk. Never knowing who was listening on the other end.
