One Moon River Chapter 1: Phase 1: Finding the place of Sanctity, a gundam seed fanfic

Cosmic Era 76. It has already been three years since the Destiny Plan acted by Gilbert Durandal manifested the entire space. The PLANTS are going off there agendas, needing to fill the Supreme Council's leader empty seat. As after Lacus Clyne refused to accept the position and left PLANTS for Orb the council members have wanted Athrun Zala to take over….

In a small conference room Yzak and Athrun together with Dearka are having a conversation when all of a sudden Athrun creep out of the room while Yzak's not looking. However, Dearka noticed him instead of busting him out he let him go like he saw nothing. And he just let Yzak blabbed there even if he himself wasn't listening at all. "What the…?! Dearka where is Athrun?" screamed Yzak as he turned around seeing no Athrun around. "I guess he went off," Dearka said with his over the table, hands on the chin and looking away from Yzak. "Damn it, Dearka! You didn't even tried to stop him?" asked Yzak eagerly as his head is turning all red and nerves keep popping as he see Dearka's expression.

On the other hand, Athrun got into a car and drives away. Waving hair, shining sky, he was thinking.

Forgive me but I have stayed long enough. Things are not mine to handle anymore.

There's only one thing I wanna do now…

Just as the following morning Athrun indirectly said goodbye to Yzak and Dearka through a note he has left behind in his hotel room. As Yzak read the note all he could was crumpled the paper and continually held that Athrun is being stupid with his actions and decisions. Dearka despite of knowing Athrun turning down the offer they've been wanting him to accept, walked right into that all-glass window and inquired, "Is he really being stupid, Yzak? Have you ever thought that his being really strong, to leave all this behind for that purpose." Yzak couldn't answer him back for he knows to himself that Athrun was just running his life the way he had never had control over it before. Now all he could was walked out from that room almost wanting to cry. Dearka stayed in that place but followed Yzak through his stares and when he was gone he looked away again into the sky.

That's right. No wisest decision will ever compete to a decision of leaving everything,

to be with the one you love the most…

An immediate return of the Prime Minister to Orb from Alaska due to the absence of the Ambassadors from three governing countries got in the news everywhere. In the mind of that leader was playing words – just as I thought I can be away with all those paper works…hehe silly me…

Just as she grew up with all responsibilities her heart never grew out of wanting freedom also for herself.

Now all paper works are cranking up all over her table as the lady reads them one after the other. When then the pen she was holding not tightly dropped into the table where the point of it was directed to a picture frame right on her desk. Cagalli smiled, left off the papers she was at and head out.

"Lady Cagalli, are you going out?" Meg asked her as she passed by her on the stairs. Cagalli replied wearing a happy face, "I'll be at my sanctity to be at peace for awhile." Then she ran off to the car just as she had ordered to go, Shinn who turned out to be her new bodyguard insist on coming with her. Since she has no way out he let him be.

All through the years, I have learned that peace is what we find among ourselves,
