Heero x Duo x Trowa Recs

Excerpt:

Trowa dropped the bag, staggering to his feet. There was a door, a little ajar, opposite Heero. Trowa felt like he was swimming through molten glass, and every step alternately throbbed and sliced him, until he was close enough to push the door open. He was staring into a little room, lit by a small window high up in the wall. Letting his eyes adjust, he could only gape at what he saw.

A cage, like the shuttles used for transporting large dogs.

The tall Preventer put a hand on the doorframe, instinctively seeking something to hold him up as his knees sagged.

There was someone in the cage, and it wasn't a dog.

Distant memories came flooding back to Trowa, and he nearly gagged. Shoving one hand over his mouth, he stumbled forward, falling to his knees in front of the cage. The damn thing was nearly three feet tall, by three feet wide, with only enough room for the naked man inside it to be curled in a fetal position. The naked body was resting on a deep blue pillow, and it was only once Trowa noticed the chestnut hair streaming across the man's shoulders that the reality was driven home.

Duo.

  He could think of this...thing...as Jade, but sometimes it was too much. He wanted it to be Duo. He wanted his friend back.
  
  Author's Note: This story grew out of my wish to respond to the seemingly endless number of stories revolving around the topic of slavery, especially those that focus on breaking or torturing a persono past their point of resistance. Sometimes reading those becomes excruciating, since so many seem to revel in a concept that I find personally abhorrent, when put into reality: removing all free will from a person, and destroying their spark of individuality. And worse, few investigate the process involved in surviving (let alone healing from) such an experience. So I decided I would. Part of the bleakness will be as the back-story becomes clear. Expect physical abuse, violence, torture, and possible squick situations. Also expect gallows humor, surprising light-hearted moments, and behaviors that make no sense from a rational point of view.
  
  My notes: The ultimate ‘brainwashed-to-be-a-slave is not a sexy recovery, but a horrible, broken recovery’ fic. Duo goes missing on a human trafficking case and Heero and Trowa have to figure out how to put him back together again… if they can.
