sunhawk16: Heero/Duo fusion with Supernatural. Please be kind- I've only watched parts of the first season. It is too scary to watch in a marathon sort of thing! *hides*

Halloween Drabble 40

"It's been hours. Can we stop now?"

"No."

"Look, I'm still not sure what the hell we're even looking for out here."

"Me either."

Duo took a deep breath. "So, maybe we need to stop and think this through. Maybe do a little more research? I mean, so some businessmen have vanished. Maybe they just got stressed out or something."

"Stressed out?" Heero's eyebrow went up.

"Yeah, don't those yuppie types do that? Get all stressed out and do crazy things?"

"And you were going to be one of these yuppie types."

"Yeah, until you showed up."

"You didn't have to come help me."

"Yeah," Duo kicked at a can. "Don't remind me. Do you really think this has something to do with Howard?"

"Dad was here. You heard the clerk."

"And now he's not. When we do find Howard, I'm going to kick his ass."

"Dad."

"Don't start that again. If that crazy bastard hadn't-"

"Did you hear something?"

Duo paused. "Footsteps?"

They both turned, hands lingering near pockets. A pretty woman emerged from the fog, the lower part of her face hidden behind a surgical mask- a common sight in the city this time of year.

"Hello," she said to them, a smile in her voice.

"Miss," Duo responded with his own smile. "You scared me for a moment." Heero nodded.

"Me?" She drew closer still. Duo cast a glance at Heero, who was watching the woman with his usual intense stare. "I'm just walking. Got into a fight with my boyfriend. Do you think I'm beautiful?"

"Did he say you weren't?" Duo laughed. "Men are pigs."

"Am I beautiful?" She was very close now, her large dark eyes looking up into Duo's pleadingly.

"Yes, of course."

"Truly?"

"Yes, very beautiful." This was getting weird.

She reached up and pulled off her surgical mask. Duo stepped backward several paces, his hand reaching for his gun as the lower half of her face split wide, her mouth stretching back to her ears, her skin split down from her nose, displaying a mouth full of sharp teeth. "Am I beautiful?"

"Hell no!" Duo managed to get the gun out.

"I think you look ordinary." Heero said calmly, yanking something out of his pocket and tossing it at her.

She vanished.

"What the hell was that?" Duo demanded.

"Kuchisake-onna," Heero replied calmly and bent to pick up the thing he'd thrown. Duo blinked as he realized it was a candy bar.

"You threw candy at her?"

"That's what you're supposed to do. Tell her she looks ordinary and throw candy at her. It worked, didn't it?"

"Wait a minute- so you KNEW what we were looking for out here?"

"I had a hunch."

"You didn't tell me."

"Yeah, like you'd believe me if I said we were banishing a ghost with candy. Come on, let's go back to the car."
