Duo has a brother...
Chapter 2:Restaurant Fiasco

***Yuri***

He had a grey shirt and a beige Armani shirt on. Also he had a white tie and white shoes. He looked like Duo, except taller, without the braid, his eyes were a beautiful green, and he had a small goatee. His skin was a little darker then Duo's too. He then saw us and said "Hey, Duo, it's great to see you finally. Please, sit down." He was gesturing to two chairs on the table. Duo pulled out a chair for me. How sweet. He sat down in the other chair and accidentally knocked his foot against what was resting at Brock's side. It was a big, grey wolf looking dog. It rested it's head on Brock's leg and Brock petted it. "Sorry 'bout that. Anyways, I see you got my letter." "Yep."Duo said. "And who is your girlfriend?" Brock was looking at me. "Um, this is Yuri, and she's not my girlfriend." Brock looked down at the dog who then cocked an eyebrow at Duo and me. "Really... She is pretty though." I blushed. "Thank you." I said politely. "So, tell me what you've been up to, Duo. I'm just a little curious as to what my bro's been doing for the past 16 years. Has he been a bad boy?" He asked me, a tone of sarcasm in his voice. That made me laugh. "No, he's been a very good boy." "What, no world disasters? Dangit, kid, I thought you were the God of Death or something like that.."

***Duo***

How did he know?!!!! Crud...... "Um, Brock.......what are you talking about? I've never heard of the God of Death..........." I tried to cover. "Don't lie to me, Duo...." Brock said. "Oh...fine....how did you find out?" "News reports, wanted reports, those little stunts you pulled at the OZ base." "Oh.." "Anyways, are you curious about anything?" "Well, I want to know why you, mom, and dad abandoned me." "We never abandoned you, Duo...I'll tell you what happened..." "I was only 3, so I only remember a bit...We were all in a room.....Dad had been shot...Mom was protecting you and me both. She gave you to me to take you to safety. I did as was told.... Before I left, she got hit by one of the Barton foundation men hard in the head. I saw she was dead because she had blood coming out of her head. I was so scared. I was running hard to where I knew Father Maxwell was. I was almost there when I got stopped by a tank. It wasn't a Barton or Oz tank though. It was the rebels. They said they only had room for one more. I told them they should take you while I stayed there. I watched them take you away. That was the last time I ever saw you. I was captured by the OZ men and brought to earth. They put me in prison with other captives from L2. When I was about 13 I made my escape from there and snuck onto a shuttle to L2. I found Cobalt here and he and I looked for you for days...but never found you... I knew I had done the right thing when I gave you to the rebels. When I moved back to Earth, I heard you were a gundam pilot. I prayed every night for your safety. Now, I know, my prayers were answered.." "That's so sad, your parents being slaughtered in front of you..." Yuri said. "Yeah....well, Duo,Yuri...do ya'll want to go to see them?" "What do you mean?"I asked. "Their graves aren't far from here. I was about to go over there anyways. I promised mother and father I would take you there to see them one day."

***Yuri***

I could see Duo was thinking about something. I knew he had parents, and that they were dead, but I didn't know how he would take it. I felt really bad for him, not knowing his parents. And then Brock, he reminded me of Duo, not much, but just a little.... "I guess I could go....but first....."Duo sounded serious now. "Can we eat? I'm really hungry....." I laughed and I could hear a small chuckle from Brock. "Yeah, might as well....." Brock said. We looked at the menu and Brock helped us decide. He asked if we wanted some wine.

***Duo***

"Yeah sure..." I said. Yuri then gave me that "Oh no you better not." look. "I mean, um, no thank you." "Suit yourself." Brock said. The waiter came over and asked us what we wanted. I settled for Fettuccini Alfredo(after asking what it was) and had water(I wanted wine X<....) (AN:He's pouting by the way). I'm gonna get Yuri for this..... Yuri had Parmesian Chicken and some water too. Brock ordered something in some other language. The waiter nodded and left. "You're bilingual?" Yuri asked. "No, actually I know numerous languages. It comes in handy." Brock said. "I don't really know about that.." I said. A waiter came by and a bell rang. Then Cobalt let out a bark and began wreaking havoc on some nearby tables. After a few minutes, he returned to us tail wagging and everyone in the restaurant looked at us. Brock then shot a glare at Cobalt. Cobalt gave the puppy eyes back. "Don't even pull that mister. If you even think for a second I'm going to let you off the hook you got another thing comin' buddy." "Awww, he's so cute..." Yuri said. "Hey, I could do that too." I said. Brock covered his eyes and said "I don't even want to know." Cobalt kinda tilted his head staring at me in an "Huh?" kinda look. Yuri laughed. That's me, the main source of entertainment for all.

***Yuri***

I'm starting to see how the two are brothers now. Brock is just as sweet as Duo is. The waiter brought us our food and Duo dug in and Brock slowly began eating. I was about to when Cobalt came over to me. "And what do you want?" I asked. He got on his hind legs and gave me the puppy eyes. "Aww, you want some of my food don't you?" I said. He licked his chops and moved his head up. "Don't give him anything, Yuri, he's justa greedy little beggar." Cobalt moaned. "Aah, get o'er here. I got ya' something." Coablt then went over to Brock, who placed a plate with a steak on it at Cobalts feet. Cobalt sniffed at it a little, then began tearing at it furiously, chomping down any pieces that came loose. I grimaced at the sight. If he could rip apart a steak, what could, or would he do to a human? "Yuri, you okay?" Duo asked. "Huh? Oh yeah, sure..." Cobalt's eyes then brightened and dimmed. "Brock, what kind of dog is Cobalt?" I asked. "He's not a dog, he's a wolf. Darn smart one too." Brock said. Then Cobalt's ear pricked and he slightly nudged Brock, who looked over at what Cobalt had heard. "Oh man...not now.." Brock said under his breath. Duo noticed this. "What is it?" "Nothing. Nothing at all." But, I knew there had to be something wrong.
