Hey, everyone. It's been a long time since I've last written a fanfic especially one that focuses on Gundam Seed. Lately I've been browsing some ideas on a particular pairing of mine but I've noticed that there aren't that many long-standing stories about it. So I decided to do one on my own and redo my original fanfic that I made years ago. I don't know how often I'll be able to update due to various things going on with work and school but I will try to do my best to update on a regular basis. But as I tell everyone at the start of a fanfic, I don't post if I reach a point where I feel that my passion or ideas are only half there. We all want a good thought out story that feels consistent and true. I haven't given up on my other fanfics either but I can only focus on one at a time. Well anyway, let stop my talking and get right to it shall we?

Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters of Gundam Seed or Gundam Seed Destiny. Any non-canon or AU characters are mine though, however few there may be.

Note: This particular story is to be read with the idea that Kira and Cagalli both know about the photo Cagalli's father gave her but that neither has made the choice to pursue Athrun or Lacus. At this point there is still unconfirmed relationship status between those four as they were mainly focused on the war.

Gundam Seed: New Genesis

Chapter 1: Recuperating

In the deepest reaches of space, among the cold and vast system of stars and colonies that resided in their respective orbits, the remains of one of the greatest and fiercest battles ever to take place could be seen. The Bloody Valentine war which was the result of escalated tensions between the Earth Alliance, who represented the people of Earth, and ZAFT, who represented Coordinators who resided in space colonies, had left a heavy cost and memory in everyone's eyes. Both sides each had strong views about the other that led to many disagreements and confrontations, but in the end neither side was truly on the path to justice. Each organization had many political and ideological people in power that were corrupt or deranged by past traumas and greed.

Blue Cosmos was one such organization that had strong ties to the Earth Federation and was a major influence in the utter destruction and hatred of Coordinators due to paranoia and disgust with gene manipulation to create enhanced human beings. Patrick Zala, the leader of ZAFT, and many others had been influenced to destroy all the Natural humans due to the Earth Alliance attack years ago on Junius Seven, a colony that had been destroyed during an attack by the Earth. The only problem was the people who were caught in the middle of the struggle. Those would be the few neutral countries of Earth and various space colonies who had chosen to remain out of the fight due to not siding with either faction.

Not everything goes as it should though since those who wage war eventually find the need to involve those with peace in the crossfire. This was made evident when ZAFT had attacked and destroyed the colony Heliopolis due to confirmed information that the Earth Alliance was storing top secret mobile suits there. It was because of this incident that various key individuals were forced to make a choice in order to survive. Enemies were made, friendships were created, people became divided, relationships were forged, and many began to see that neither side was on the correct path to peace. A group of young men and women, who had each been involved in the war from respective sides, then came to see that in order to truly end the war they would need to stand on their own and combat both forces to show the world that it was possible to coexist with one another.

These remarkable individuals had each shed their share of blood, hatred, sorrow, happiness, and love. And it was thanks to them and the forces above that the war was over and a bright future was on the horizon. This is the continuation to the next stage for these men and women who sacrificed so much to obtain the peace that, however brief, was now taking place.

(Archangel)

The great ship Archangel was central to the war and had been involved many times in the battle for and against the Earth Alliance and ZAFT. The crew was comprised of former Earth Alliance military personnel, citizens turned military from Heliopolis, and new recruits from the neutral country of Orb. By this time, many were celebrating the end of the war and taking time to relax after such a long time of violence. A few chose to spend the time quietly to themselves, mostly the ones who had done the most fighting in the skirmish.

A young brown-haired boy sat quietly near the railing of one of the balconies of the ship, thinking about the events that had taken place. After being forced to pilot a mobile suit despite being a normal colony citizen, he had had his share of many battles and brushes with life and death. Now after many months of fighting, he had finally ended the war that had claimed so many lives. It was hard to believe at times since it all felt like a dream, but he knew it was over. The only thing question he had left was, what would he do now?

His friends were safe, he had stopped the war, had reunited with his childhood friend Athrun, and he had stopped the madman Rau Le Creuset, who was the main villain trying to get both sides to destroy each other. There were a few regrets that he had such as not being able to save many people including his love, Flay Allster. He had also discovered that he was a living experiment that made him the Ultimate Coordinator and that his family was actually his adopted family. But there was a bright light shining forward as well. He was now able to have a fresh start and finally have some peace. He would do his best to help make sure that wars, such as the recent one, were never started again.

First, he needed to be with his friends. After fighting for so long, he knew that it would be great to be able to spend time with the ones he cherished. After a few minutes, Kira Yamato stood up and headed towards the cafeteria, knowing that they would most likely be celebrating.

(Kusanagi)

About the same time, a young blonde-haired girl was sitting in her room staring up at a small photo in her hands. Many things had happened over the course of the year that were hard to believe. She had disobeyed her father's orders by leaving the safety of her country Orb and headed out to investigate rumors that her country, despite being neutral, had participated in manufacturing weapons for the Earth Alliance. She had found them during her trip to Heliopolis, but had been forced to get into a life-pod against her will for safety. After that, she had helped participate in a revolution against one of the leading generals of ZAFT, who ironically is now one of their allies. After reuniting with the boy who had saved her life and finding out he was now the reluctant pilot of one of the machines she had investigated, she then traveled with the Archangel towards her home country. Once arriving, she faced her father and made known all of the events that she had seen with her own eyes.

It was soon after that, she had received word that the boy, Kira Yamato, had perished in a battle with his friend Athrun Zala. She had been crushed by that news since deep down she had grown fond of him in a way that she didn't really consider until that moment. It was during that time that she had gotten to know of Athrun and Kira's past through the former, and deciding to take a stand on what Orb should be doing. Not too long afterwards, she was once again shocked to see that the once-thought-dead Kira was indeed alive, now armed with the Freedom Gundam he had received in space. To say that she was delighted was an understatement at being able to see her friend once more. Their reunion was cut short, however, due to the Earth Alliance's decision to retaliate against Orb due to its choice to not join them. Kira became a main asset in defending her country, especially with the alliance's new gundam mobile suits taking part in the battle. Even more astounding was the return of Athrun in the Justice Gundam to aide his friend.

Slowly, the battle was beginning to turn. That was until her father had told her of his decision to do what he thought was best for his nation. Instead of having it in a constant state of battle, he would sacrifice himself to allow his people a chance to escape. It was the hardest thing to see, the father she had known and respected as a strong individual, doing the bravest thing anyone could do. But there was also another big shock that was added to that, in the form of the photo she was now staring at. Before parting, her father had told her that she would not be alone without him, but that she would still have her brother. Saying this, he handed her the photo of a brunette woman holding two children in her arms and on the back of the photo were the words "Kira x Cagalli." Crying as her ship took off and left her father behind, she had no time to process this information until she had reached space.

Once the realization of her father's words were made clear, she had an even harder time understanding what was going on. The person who she grew up with as her father was in fact her adopted father? The boy in the photo named "Kira" was her pilot friend and now supposed long-lost twin brother? It didn't help that said "brother" showed up to check on her just as she was trying to make heads-or-tails of this new revelation. He couldn't understand it either after she had told him as well. Neither had a chance to discuss it further though since they had rendezvoused with the Eternal. The news of Lacus Clyne's father's death had added a new turmoil to consider not to mention the war that they were about to take part in. The war had been tough and many lives were sacrificed especially some of the pilots from her country. It pained her to find out that the female pilots who she knew in Orb had been some of the many victims of the battle.

However, now that the war was over and peace was once again restored it was only a matter of time until she had to head back to her country and begin rebuilding her nation. The only thing left to do was settle some unfinished business. Something she needed to let out before it consumed her and began taking a toll on her tired mind. Getting up, she made her way to find a certain someone. After boarding the Archangel, she finally caught up to the brunette boy that had been occupying her mind lately.

(Hallway of the Archangel)

Kira had been busy taking some time away from the party after spending some much needed time with his friends. It was great to see everyone all chipper and happy for once. He knew that they needed it just as much as he did. So after stepping out for a bit, he saw a familiar blonde girl coming in the opposite direction. Both stopped a few feet from each other and took a moment to gather their thoughts.

"Hey…" It was Cagalli who spoke first and took the lead. Kira decided to follow up and not make her wait or else she would probably get irritated.

"Hey…" It wasn't really an awkward type of mood but more of the feeling that each had multiple things that they wanted to say to each other. The best way to handle it was to find a way to bring everything out in the open without making it truly awkward.

"Do you have a minute?" She motioned with her hand pointing towards the direction opposite her. "I just want to have a little talk and I think we both have a lot of things that we'd like to say. Of course, I could understand if you want to have some time by yours–"

"No, it's alright. Actually, I've had the same feeling for a while now." He interrupted her, knowing he could never say no to her after all they've gone through. "And now that we have the time, it's better to just enjoy the freedom we have, right?" He smiled and she returned the expression.

"Yea, you're right." Turning around she began walking to the lounge, knowing it would be empty with everyone off enjoying themselves elsewhere.

Once entering the room, they made themselves comfortable and took a moment to bask in the peace and serenity. After a small amount of time, the blonde decided to begin the conversation.

"It's hard to believe it's finally over…The war that is." Both stared towards the clear glass window that gave a perfect view of space.

"I know. At times, I feel like I'm living in a dream and that I'll wake up any moment to find that we're still back in Orb or the Archangel." Closing his eyes, Kira leaned back in his chair waiting to hear his partner's comment.

"Don't worry, we're here and this is reality." Seeing his state of rest, she began to analyze his form and wondered what he was thinking at that moment. "Sometimes, I wish parts of this were a dream." The image of her father's figure standing tall as the burning flames engulfed him came into her mind.

"I'm sorry. I wish I could've been stronger. Then maybe you're father would not have had to do something like that." He already knew what she was thinking of and how hard it must be to deal with those kinds of things.

"No, Kira. There was nothing you could've done." She closed her eyes and shook her head, leaning back. "My father already knew what would happen regardless of how much you fought back then. You and Athrun may be the best pilots out there, but you're not all-powerful. We're all human and we all have our limits."

"Yea, but that doesn't make us wish any less that we could change the past or do more than we should. We can't help but want to correct our regrets." The young Coordinator now began to observe the young girl to his side.

"True, but that's what makes us all human. We think we can change the world on our own but we know deep down that we can't do it alone." Opening her eyes, she noticed him staring at her and suppressed the warm feeling in her cheeks. "I loved my father and I respected his way of life. I may have made some mistakes by doing things my own way, but deep down my father loved me dearly."

For a good ten minutes they just sat there in silence and let their minds just feel nothing. They knew the conversation would continue but there was no rush. They deserved this time to have a heart-to-heart about all the things that they had gone through. Now they were getting to spend time with each other as people who met under strange circumstances and grew to be friends during times of hardship.

"I don't believe it though, you know." Cagalli stared outside the glass at the far reaches of space.

"About what? You mean the photo?" He knew they would get to that at some point but talking about it now was starting to get his heart racing a bit.

"Yea. I mean it sounds so…so…"

"Weird?" Kira filled in the blank, hoping to see what her reaction would be.

"Crazy." This caused her companion to raise an eyebrow. "So, I'm supposed to believe that out of all the people in the world, the one person that I meet by chance and spend all this time with turns out to be my twin brother who was separated at birth?" She looks at him as if asking what he thought about it.

"That does sound crazy. What is that a one in a trillion chance?" A bad joke on his part, but he tried to lighten the mood a bit. His blonde friend didn't look so amused though.

"I'm serious. That just sounds so far-fetched and out of this world. We just now get this kind of revelation as if we're supposed to just accept it and go on with our lives!" The young girl thought she was going to have a migraine with all of the frustration and emotions that were smarming her now.

"Yea, but there's the photo. It has our names on it and even your father seemed to be convinced that I'm the 'Kira' in that photo. Not to mention, Rau Le Creuset seemed to know a lot about the situation." Despite his comment, even he found the whole idea hard to believe.

"Photographs don't mean proof without a doubt. And who in the world would believe a madman like him anyway?" She let out a exhausted sigh and she leaned back again. "For one, I don't even know the woman in that photo. She could be anyone for all I know. Not only that, how do we know that someone just didn't write our names on the back just to…I don't know…prevent something?"

"Prevent something? Like what?" Cagalli was thankful that her friend was dense so that he didn't immediately get why she was starting to blush.

"Nothing. All I'm saying is that there are too many things unconfirmed for us to believe that this whole thing is true." Standing up, she turned and pointed to him. "This changes nothing between us, okay. I'm still Cagalli Yula Attha and you're still Kira Yamato. And until we find out different, I say we're still the same people who met from Heliopolis to this moment here." Kira could only eye his friend as she stood there and made her resolute declaration before smiling and standing up.

"True, we've been through too much to let something like this with no basis ruin whatever friendship we've made. So until something changes, I guess we're back to being pilot and princess." He noticed a familiar twitch in the girl's eye as she stared at him as if he had just stepped on a land mine.

"You know how much I dislike being called that word." Walking up to him, she lightly pulled on his cheek. And despite not pinching hard, he at least had the decency to start sweating a little.

"Well, you are a princess. Even if you don't act like one." Her grip increased slightly due to a small annoyance at that comment. She knew what he meant, but the way it came out was too much like a blow to her femininity.

"You're lucky I think you're cute…" She whispered so he didn't hear. Once she released his cheek, she took a deep breath and exhaled as if calming down her nerves. "Now that that's over, let's head out and get something to eat. I'm hungry." Opening the door, she waited for him to exit but was puzzled when he stopped next to her and bowed with his arm extended, like a butler.

"After you, milady." Blushing madly, the blonde elbowed him lightly in the ribs and stormed off, not missing his slight chuckle. Strangely, it only seemed to make her smile as they walked further.

(Eternal)

On the red-pink ship nearby the Archangel and Kusanagi, the crew of the Eternal was also having its own celebratory festivities. Those aboard were former ZAFT members who had chosen to side with Lacus Clyne and supported her father's ideals. Despite being outnumbered on all sides, they had managed to come out alive and victorious. After years of fighting in the war against Naturals and seeing endless bloodshed, the crew was preparing for a new beginning.

On the far side of the ship, though, two men of different ages were having a conversation amongst themselves. A blue-haired teen wearing a ZAFT uniform sat in a comfortable leather chair across from a brown-haired older man who had a noticeable scar on his face. Athrun Zala was one of the main pilots for ZAFT and also the childhood friend of Kira Yamato when they both went to a military academy for young coordinators. After the death of his mother in the Junius Seven disaster, he had joined ZAFT under his father in order to end the war and prevent the Naturals from doing anything like that again. It was the attack at Heliopolis that changed that path when he encountered his long separated friend, Kira. From then on, both had fought each other trying to make the other understand that they didn't wish to fight but that they each had something to protect that forced them to stand their ground. With each battle, Athrun became more and more unsure of the path he was taking since his father's continued radical ideals were creating a rift between the two of them and his unwillingness to kill his friend.

It was at one point where Kira reluctantly was forced to kill Athrun's teammate and friend, Nicole, causing him to kill Tolle, Kira's friend from Heliopolis. Both had been enraged by their deaths and tried to kill each other in retaliation. The battle had ended with Athrun changing his Aegis Gundam into its mobile armor form and grasping Kira's Strike Gundam before detonating. The young ZAFT pilot had later lamented knowing that his close friend was dead due to his attempt at revenge and confirmed it to Cagalli once he was captured. It was not until he had returned to space and talked with his former fiancé, Lacus, that he found out that Kira was indeed alive and now piloting one of the new ZAFT gundams.

Not long after hearing this news, his father, Patrick, gave him new orders to take the Justice Gundam to Earth and bring back the Freedom Gundam that had been stolen. Once on Earth, Athrun was again conflicted on whether to do his duty or help his friend as he defended Orb from the Earth Alliance attack. In the end, he had chosen to side with Kira and proved valuable in dispatching the newly created mobile suits. The battle was far from over, but Izumi Attha had already made it known that he needed to destroy Onagoro base in order to prevent the Earth Alliance from using Orb's means of getting into space. He had watched as the leader of Orb sacrificed himself as he and Kira defended the escape ship before heading into space.

From there, everyone had been so focused on fighting the war that he had hardly had time to talk to either Kira or Cagalli much. Lately, it seemed like there was something going on between the two of them. He had made a note to talk to Kira about it once he saw him. It had always seemed as if there was a form of chemistry that those two had and Athurn was beginning to wonder if maybe Kira was starting to finally break out of his shell and consider a relationship. Knowing his friend, the brunette was pretty dense and innocent when it came to girls, which made him worry a lot that he could be taken advantage of. But from what he had seen from Cagalli, the blonde was quite the girl and had the intensity and heart that made her stand out. The blue-haired soldier admitted that at one point he had indeed fancied her for her personality and good looks. Although pretty much a tomboy, Cagalli did have the looks that made it clear she was a woman, however, he did mistake her for a boy when he first met her.

Athrun wasn't sure what the status was between his two friends but he knew that if it was those two, there wasn't anything to worry about. One thing that did end up on his mind lately, was his own relationship with a certain pink-haired idol, now captain of the Eternal. In the beginning, his father had engaged him Lacus in an arranged marriage for political measures and made them out to be the new generation that would lead the Coordinators to a bright future. As for their own feelings, Athrun and Lacus accepted their engagement regardless of any personal disagreements. The main problem was that both had very busy lives and rarely had time to talk to each other, making it harder for Athrun to imagine what their future would be like. Lacus appeared to be fine with the situation and at times he wondered if maybe she had really come to like him despite how little she knew of him. It wasn't as if they never talked to each other but he believed deep down they both wanted to at least know more about who they would be marrying considering it was going to be for the rest of their lives. Now here he is having a heart-to-heart with Andrew Waltfield, the former Desert Tiger of ZAFT.

"Who would have thought that we'd end up here looking out at space and seeing the end to the war with our very own eyes?" Both men had a drink in their hands, taking swigs every now and then. The young boy had grown up a soldier so he was used to drinking alcohol in certain amounts. "Seems like only a few days ago, I was sent to retrieve the Freedom and return to ZAFT."

"When you get to be my age, you stop worrying about how you got where you are and focus on what to do from here on out." Waltfield took a drink of his scotch and grinned as he enjoyed the taste. "What do you see for yourself in the future?"

"Honestly, I don't know. I've been fighting so long and spent most of my time on missions and completing orders that were assigned to me." He eyed the liquor in his glass. "I never really could see myself so close to the end of this long path of fighting. But for now, I believe I'll start helping to maintain what we've gained now. Don't want there to be another war anytime soon."

"Well, that's understandable. But more importantly, what are you going to do about your personal life?" His young subordinate turned his attention to him. "Are you still going to stay with the young ZAFT princess or take some time for yourself and try to see where life takes you?" The young pilot took some time to think this one over since he had yet to find an answer to the same question.

"I would need to talk to Lacus before I go deciding on what we should do. Truthfully, with everything that has happened concerning our parents, the engagement and any binding actions that held us together are gone. Before now, we always thought that it was out of our hands and that our main duty was the secure the next generation once our time came to succeed our fathers." Taking a drink, he savored the liquid as it ran down his throat. "Personally, I want to just take it easy and decide my own life one step at a time."

"Heh, does this mean you've already fallen for the pink princess?" The older pilot smirked. "I mean, you're already whipped. The way I see it, you're no different from your friend and the blonde princess, hahaha."

"Heh, maybe that's why we're friends. We can relate to our situations. But I think whatever they have is a bit more natural." He leaned back and laughed a bit. "I think Cagalli, is the one leading him by the shirt. Kira might be the best pilot out there but he's totally clueless when it comes to women. If I remember, back when we were in school together he was quite popular with the girls but never took any notice of it." Sighing, he made a silent prayer for his brunette friend.

"Are they still going on with their little back and forth? Back in my day, it wouldn't be long after that they'd eventually be moving up the ladder with each other." Waltfield sighed wondering what the youth of today was doing being so hesitant with their lives. "A woman can only wait so long before she sees that she's not getting anywhere."

"I think they're fine." He looked towards the ceiling as if deep in thought. "If that were the case then I'm sure Cagalli would have let it go a long time ago. And I believe that if Kira doesn't do anything soon, then she'll be the one to force the issue and take charge herself."

"Damn, I can only imagine that day!" The one-armed soldier slapped his knee repeatedly as he laughed. "Can you imagine what happens when she gets frustrated waiting for him to discover intimacy?"

"Ugh, I kinda don't want to imagine that because it sounds too much like Kira might not make it out alive." Grimacing, the younger pilot took another deep drink and tried not to imagine a frustrated blonde dominating his shy friend.

"Well, either way, I'm sure you all know what you're doing better than anyone. My advice would be to not live with any regrets. I've made more than my fair share of them and I can tell you that I wouldn't want the same for any of you." He finished by downing the rest of his scotch in one gulp before returning to his relaxed position.

"I'll take that to heart and be sure that I'll also pass that message on to him as well." Athrun did the same and drank the rest of his drink before standing up.

"Heading on out?" The older gentleman asked.

"Yea, I'm going to go see about some things before we disembark and head back to Orb." He saluted his former superior, who in turn did the same, and made his way out the doorway.

"Regrets, huh? Who am I to be giving advice about such things, eh?" Grinning, he closed his eyes and the image of a beautiful woman came to his mind. "I knew you well enough that you didn't regret tolerating me when I put you through all of those times. I just hope these youngsters are able to overcome the trials that are sure to head their way."

(Archangel)

The party celebration had been a huge success for all those involved. The young former-civilians were all so glad to finally be free of the war and the fighting. It had affected each one of them, specifically when their colony was destroyed and they came aboard the Archangel. They had done so in support of their friend, Kira, who was put in a tight spot for piloting the Strike Gundam despite the life-or-death situation he was in. Eventually, after numerous battles and tough calls, they decided to volunteer their services to the military vessel knowing that their coordinator friend would be alone otherwise.

Now here they stood all together in one piece and awaiting their return to their families back in the country of Orb. By now, each of them had made plans on what they were going to do with their new found freedom. Miriallia was planning on spending as much time with her parents as she could and was thinking about her future plans for a career in photography. Sai had no idea what he wanted to do besides reuniting with his loved ones, but he wanted to take it slow and think about things. Both were pretty devastate by the loss of their love interests in various battles. Miriallia had lost her boyfriend, Tolle, during the battle between Kira and Athrun, while Sai had heard the shocking news of Flay's, his former fiancé, death. They had grown stronger, though, after experiencing so many things since Heliopolis and now had a better chance to start anew. Both were meeting with Kira to discuss what to do once they returned to the neutral country.

"So, Kira, what are you going to do from here on out?" Sai calmly asked his brunette friend.

"I'm going to be staying with my family in Orb for a bit but I'm not sure on just how long."

"Are you planning on going somewhere?" Miriallia was curious as she was one of the closest to the coordinator.

"I don't know. It's just now that peace has been achieved, I want to make sure and help keep it that way and prevent any more fighting. But I don't know where to start, honestly." There was a slight uneasiness in his demeanor as he remembered his family. Despite his decision on the photo, he was still unsure of what to think about his parents considering there was a high possibility that they were indeed his adoptive parents. His relationship to Cagalli was undetermined as of yet, but it was apparent that his relationship to his parents was not a genetic or natural one. He loved them yes, but he was not sure how to handle that situation with the new knowledge in mind.

"What's wrong, Kira?" Sai could easily tell his friend was having some inner turmoil about something.

"It's nothing. It's just some things came up and I'm not so sure that I'm ready to head back to my parents at the moment." He turned his gaze slightly away.

"Well, if it's that complicated I'm sure you could stay over at my place for a bit." Kira was a little stunned by Sai's response.

"Yea, Kira, my house is free too. My parents always did have a high opinion of you." Miriallia gave a smile.

"Hmm, I don't want to impose on you guys. I mean, we just go through with this war and I know you all want to spend time with your families." While trying to talk his way out of being a burden, Kira was interrupted by a smack on his back that almost made him lose his balance.

"Oh, quit being so indecisive." All three turned to see Cagalli behind him with a frown on her face. "If it's that much trouble for you, just come and stay with me. That way you can decide what you want to do and not feel like you're imposing on them."

"But-" The young pilot began but was halted by a hand on his mouth.

"No buts. You're coming and that's final. Honestly, there is no helping you, is there?" The blonde made a 'hmph' sound while turning her head as if leaving no room for argument. Seeing no way out of this, Kira sighed and gave in.

"Fine, I'll do it." Smiling at his response, the Orb princess turned around and headed back to the cafeteria. Meanwhile, his two friends were smirking at the exchange between the two.

"Kira, is there something that you want to tell us?" The boy turned to see Miriallia with imaginary fox ears that showed she was dying to know something juicy.

"Um, I'll see you guys later. I really need to take care of some things before we start heading back, ok?" Making his escape, the two were left in a mixture of awe and interest. Certainly they would need to make a point and get the details from their friend whether he liked it or not. After all, it wasn't every day that they saw Kira being so easily handled by anyone especially a girl like Cagalli.

-END-

And that's the stopping point for this chapter. I hope I've gotten everyone excited for more on this development. Yes, the main pairing for this series will be Kira/Cagalli since I've always felt like they were duped by the creators at the end. Also, this will be incest-free since I'd rather have a story where they are both not related to make it more natural and not so forbidden and guilt-ridden. I do intend to keep going with this one so please be on the lookout for more chapters. I have an idea as to where to take this but I'm still doing this as I go.

This also can be considered a redo of my earlier fanfic also based on this pairing. There were some points in it that just didn't seem so consistent with the real series so I'm scrapping that one in favor of this story. If you all have any ideas that you think would be good to add then please let me know. I'm always open to new ideas as long as they don't interfere with the main plot. Also, I really and seriously encourage anyone interested to make their own fanfics about this pairing since there aren't many out there. The two most recent ones have been very good but mostly you see a lot of Athrun/Cagalli or Kira/Lacus on here.

Remember to review and let me know what you think. Also, if anyone is able to give me help in technical lingo that they use often in GS and GSD then it would be appreciated. I look up a lot of stuff and don't use too much in my stories but I want to have some variety and have the story seem more authentic. Thanks and God Bless you all.
