CAGALLI P.O.V.
With so many enemies threatening ORB she is happy that she has her wedding to Athrun Zala under way and only in a few months. It is the only thing keeping her chin up from everything she has to deal with.
Cagalli is in her room at her desk going over her pictures of her and Athrun from the past little while - while in her mind going over the past few letters and radio messages saying that someone was going to come after her and Athrun making her worry about them both on how these people and why these people are doing such things.
With their overall surveillance of her and Athrun's room not to mention all of their main spots to go to are being constantly watched she couldn't help but wonder how these people would manage to get to them with all of this high tech security.
Picking up a particular picture and holding it in both hands she stares at it, warm eyes on a happy smile on Athrun's face when they went to the park the other week on how she'd made him laugh so she took a picture of it and to her it was the best picture of him yet.
The intercom on her desk then went off Princess Cagalli please come to the Communications Room as there's something you'll want to see – Athrun Zala is on his way Cagalli pressed the respond button, "I'll be right over" and got up and left her room for the Communications Room and was there within a matter of minutes and Athrun was there waiting and held her hand when she came to the monitors with him.
"What's going on?" Cagalli asked and a man put up the current imagery of a space station that she and Athrun discovered a month ago while in combat and it had obviously crashed into a chunk of asteroid so big that the asteroid swallowed it up until a chunk of the asteroid was blown away due to the battle for them to find it deserted.
"A battle just went on around the place and a group of people have rigged it – its set to explode in the next 2 hours and I know you both said valuable things were on that ship" a solider said and Cagalli looked at Athrun and he nodded, "We're both going over there – any sign of anyone to hold us back?"
The solider sighed, "they entered in a way that we cannot tell if they're still there or not but they took out several of the video cameras stationed in specific areas so it could he rigged in any of the Command areas."
Cagalli looked at Athrun suspiciously, "Wait – your letting me come with you? Usually you try to talk me out of things like this" she said and Athrun smiled sweetly, "well if there is no sign of the enemy then I have no fear over loosing you" he replied making her blush.
Within a few short minutes they got some guns with ammo, a microphone and speaker in one for the right ear and went into each of their mobile suits and shot off for space.
ATHRUN P.O.V.
Now outside of the hidden base he uses his own computer to do up a quick scan of the area but because it's in the asteroid its not cooperating, "looks like we're going in partially blind… CR keep us posted on any movement in there besides ours" Athrun required of the Communications Room.
Yes Sir, We'll Keep You Informed Of Any Activity and with that both Athrun and Cagalli's mobile suits went in through docking and landed both of their mobile suits as close to the exit door as possible
Athrun opened his hatch and pulled out his handgun holding it out first and looking around the area and noticed Cagalli is doing the same, "see anything I don't?" he asked and Cagalli shook her head, "I don't" and they both eased up and drifted down to the floor and glided over to the door.
He pressed a green button and the door opened to a small square chamber with a glass look through and he then looked at Cagalli and she nodded at him so both walked into the small chamber and the door behind them closed as a voice came on Atmosphere and Earth Gravity Set it said and the door in front of them slid open. Cagalli looked at the Atmosphere readings on her wrist computer, "the voice is right – we can breath this air" and with that they both removed their helmets and held them to their left side each.
With a quick glance the armoury room looks the same as it did before – weapons stashed in their steel barred cages on the walls, ammo boxes locked in their drawers below the steel cages, this room leading to a hall that will take you to a conference room on either side of the hall and then extra bathrooms on either side of the walls for men and women and from there it goes onto a hall way to the left to a Communications Room and to the right another hall way to the Commanding Officer's office and a stair case to the left of it to rooms all of these places long distance walks from one another.
Cagalli took a step forward, "I'm going to the Commanding Officer's office to get some things that may be valuable" and Athrun put his hand on her shoulder, "I'm off to Communications Room – please be careful Cagalli" and she nodded before they both separated.
Athrun walked at a steady pace down the hall taking a glimpse in both Conference Rooms, then bathrooms and continued along and took his left to the Communications Room, "how are we for time CR?" he asked You Have 57 Minutes Left – Plenty Of Time the man said and Athrun powered up the computers and logged in to download any system data that could be useful as well as to find out why this ship had actually crashed.
I'm In The Commanding Officer's Office Athrun Cagalli informed him which brought a smile to his face, "I'm downloading all of the ships feed to find out what had happened to it before it blows" he said and then he frowned, "this is going to take a good long while… I don't think it'll be done in time and even if it is the computers might shut down from it taking so long as I don't know the extent of damage to this place at all."
Why Not Connect Their Computers To Ours By Satellite – It'll Be Much Faster I'm Sure Athrun considered it and right away went to work on the new idea that had formed and connected them by Satellite in a matter of minutes.
"I'm coming over to you Cagalli – this may take a bit," Athrun said as he turned and began to go down the hallway.
Wait… I Just Saw Something… A Dark Figure Just Wavered In And Out Of The Camera's Range Athrun then stopped in his tracks to listen closely at this new information, "Where did this take place?" he asked and waited In A Dorm Room – I Swear I Never Saw Anyone Enter The Room – Its Room 6 Down The Right Hallway Athrun went to the stairs and looked up them. "I'm going to check it out" he said and pulled out his gun and went up the stairs quickly and once at the top looked up and down the hallway skimming the doors and everything.
While walking down the hallway his eyes darted back and forth between dorm rooms until he reached room 6 and stood in front of it – gun low and ready, "I'm going in…" he kicked open the door and darted his gun around the room to find it empty, "I don't see anyone."
Check Out The Closet To The Right… It Was Near There That I Saw The Flash Of The Figure so Athrun walked over to the closet, gun trained on it if anything were to jump out he was ready. Once in front he found a single black jacket and tugged on it, "is this what you saw?" he asked giving it a quick wave for the camera I Suppose So and then Athrun's eyes fell upon a separation line in the back of the closet, "wait there's something else here…" he said and once putting a bit of pressure onto it – it opened leading to a secret passageway and immediately his eyes grew wide.
"It was a set up! They wanted a distraction!" Athrun called and rushed out of the room.
CAGALLI P.O.V.
Putting her right palm over the speaker on her ear, she couldn't believe what she'd just heard, "Athrun? Where are you going?" she asked now panic swelling up in her gut.
Cagalli! Behind You! She heard CR say and as she turned around she also moved back a step to try and avoid anything on-coming and was caught off guard by a quick swipe up her left eye from a dagger and cried out in surprise to see a man there as she fell backwards with her back hitting the office table now holding her left hand over her left eye. I've Lost My Feed From Her Room!
CAG- Athrun's voice was cut short by another man coming up to stand by the one with a dagger and he fired his gun and it blew off the speaker by miraculously un-harming her ear. Looking up at these two men she knew better than to pull her own gun.
Everything moving in slow motion, blood slowly trickling down from her eye brow, over her eye lid as she's keeping it closed tight and the cut just below the eye is seeping under her hand and trickling down her cheek to her jaw.
"Take her away and pull the double out" the man in charge obviously said but not looking very formal at all and the knife man grabbed one of her arms and another guy came along and grabbed the other while covering her mouth with a rag to stop her from screaming or biting him while struggling against the 2 men. Time now going at a regular pace, screaming as loud as she could while another man came out and dropped a dummy with no face on the floor and fired again to make it sound like he'd killed her to make it look like a fatal shot.
Clenching her fists while feeling a little dizzy from the sudden strike and the quickness of what's going on, keeping her left eye closed to stop any from going in – an arm now going around front of her neck to stop her further as she heard Athrun running towards the room. Four arms stretched out with grenades and tossed them around the desk and the dummies body.
"CAGALLI! Cagalli Are You Alright?" Athrun yelled as he reached the door frame to see a quick look of the dummy looking like its been hurt and then all of the grenades went off at once blowing up a good portion of the room while knocking Athrun out of the door frame and the men now pulling her away from the room and then she felt something cold and long go into her neck – things began to slow down again only her head is feeling heavy and vision is failing to the point of black vision and head dropping.
ATHRUN P.O.V.
Athrun got up almost immediately grabbing a hold of the doorframe with both hands, "CAGALLI! C-Cagalli…" his voice croaked looking at the room of ruin and falling to his knees as tears formed in his eyes, he closed his eyes and screamed her name in pain.
Athrun Zala! What's Happened? They Jumped The Timer And Its Going To Explode In 15 Minutes Now Athrun then looked down the hall, "do you have all feedback from the computers?" Yes Sir, Please Return
Athrun slowly got up and ran to the Communications Room, tears rolling down his cheeks he found it hard to believe what had just happened. Within just a few minutes he set Cagalli's Mobile Suit to go back to base and then hopped into his own and left and just as he reached ORB's atmosphere the ship blew up far behind him.
A crew came to both of their Mobile Suits and the Communications Officer ran to Athrun as soon as he touched the floor, "Mr. Zala – where's Cagalli? What happened back there?" he asked and Athrun looked at him with sorrow on his face.
"Cagalli was shot and killed… I just got to see her body with blood before the whole area around her blew up in front of me… I have to tell Kira and…" he choked back on his words feeling more grief than could be imagined.
