The Phantom and I

A Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Fanfiction

Chapter I: Resurrected Wings

I can't seem to refocus myself for another morning with the children of the orphanage. It's been three years since the end of the war and I've grown accustomed to the everyday life of a simple orphanage hand. It's a rather far cry from what I was doing in Terminal.

From what I am currently hearing from Athrun, PLANT has acted strangely during the past months. I fear that the flames of war might scorch the peace that my friends and I had achieved.

But the focus turns to that special person, Kira Yamato who I love so much. He still hasn't recovered from the scars that war has given to him. I fear that he might be dragged into conflict once again… but as soon as I think about it, a vision creeps unto my mind. This vision of me standing face to face with a certain ghost from the past, has lingered within me.

Night befalls Orb and even though I must sleep, a phantom appears before me;

"Wake up! Wake up!" – The red-headed apparition said unto me.

I try to talk to the familiar visage, but to no avail. I keep asking the phantom; 'Why are you here? Have you come to haunt me?

"Allster! Is that you?"—my mind was screaming this after seeing her face. But it was too late, the apparition was already disappearing. And I was little by little regaining consciousness

As I woke up, I heard gunshots. As if the ghost told me that my life is in danger. It was the first time I encountered an eerie vision. But it would not be the last…
