Who wants to live forever
This was origionally 5 different one-shots, however I decided that since they all connect I might as well put them all into one story. They probably should have been like this since the beginning, but I wrote them completely out of order. Anyways, that's why the styles varry so much through this fic; they were origionally not together. It's a multi part, not a chaptered fic.
One of these days I might finally get around to writing the epilogue. So If you people really want it let me know eh?
I do not own Gundam Wing nor the song "Who wants to live forever" by Queen
Please read and review this one. I like to know what people think of my stuff, good or bad I don't really care as long as it's honest! my e-mail is neekabe@canoemail.com
Now, just go ahead, read and enjoy.
Elysium: A place or condition of ideal happiness
Who wants to live forever?
Pain was his entire existence. He could hardly remember what it was like not to hurt. The doctors gave him shots but they hardly did any good anymore. The disease was genetic. There was no cure, just temporary relief. What was the point to it all? He was dying and he knew it. They were just trying to postpone the inevitable.
There's no time for us
There's no place for us
What is this thing that builds our dreams yet slips away from us?
The war had finally ended though. There was no longer any need to fight… and for that he was grateful. Another bout of pain washed over his weary body. He was tired. So tired of fighting, even fighting his own body.

Who wants to live forever...?
More pain. Stronger than ever before. He bit back the scream that threatened to come forth. He would remain strong until the end. But it was so hard... his mind fled from the pain of the present, to the sanctity of the past. Merain. There was pain there too...
There's no chance for us
It's all decided for us
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us
His wife… he remembered her. Sitting in that field of flowers. It was the only time he had admitted to himself that he loved her. … and it had been their last moments together. She died in his arms, in the arms of a boy far too young to understand. A boy who only now was just beginning to understand all that he left that day in the field of flowers.

He had held on to that memory of her and her cause for all of his life. He still loved her, but loving didn't bring her back. All loving anyone ever brought was pain and heartache.
Who dares to love forever?
When love must die
Then, suddenly, he saw her. There, just above the stark cleanliness of his hospital bed. She was just like he remembered, full of life and vigour, with a smile hovering on her lips. She looked like she was ready to burst into joyous laughter at any moment. She glanced down at Wufei's pain wracked form, looking slightly confused. His body convulsed and, despite his best efforts, tears of pain escaped. He was loosing control, and control was the only thing he had left now. Soon he would have nothing.
But touch my tears with your lips
Touch my world with your fingertips
Her stretched out towards his tormented body, wiping the tears of pain from his cheeks and cooling the fevered brow. She caught his gaze and held out her hand to him; her eyes asked the question. He considered all he had to leave behind. He would miss those he had meet during the wars. The other Gundam pilots...Sally. They were the few he could honestly call friends. Could he leave them now? Yes. He had finally proved himself worthy of her love. There was no more war, he was no longer needed here. He could finally rest in peace. Blurred eyes suddenly focused, smiling, he reached up a trembling arm. He took her hand and went with her.
And we can have forever
And we can love forever
Forever is our today
The monitors then flat lined. Doctors came rushing in trying to bring life back to the body; but the life didn't want to return. Eventually they gave up, they had done all they could. Only one noticed that the body was now smiling.

Two figures were in a field full of flowers. Wufei stood there with his arm possessively encircling Merain's waist, a rare smile was hovering on his lips. Happiness, contentment...peace. This was all that he had lost that day in that field so many years ago. He looked back, doubt flashed through his mind. What about those he left behind? How would they deal with this? He would miss everyone, how could he deal? Then as a new awareness filled his mind he smiled; there should be no regrets.
He would see the others soon.
Who waits forever anyway?
