A/N: This is a fic that I thought up when I was staring at my ceiling in my room, trying to get to sleep. It's what Trowa's thinking and experiencing when he's drifting through space. Oh, and before I go, one of my 'bestest' friends just started a website. Please visit it!! *grins hopefully* You'll find the address in Akutenshi no Jade's section in ff.net, 'cause it's her site. Thank you, minna!
Drifting........cold..........so very cold. Trowa shivered slightly in his space suit. Everyone thought that he was dead. But it wasn't true. He was alive.......but barely. Slowly, the Silent One opened his gem-bright green eyes. Darkness. The gentle twirl of stars as he drifted into the blank void of space.
Where is everyone? he thought to himself. Where is Heero......Quatre......Cathrine? Where is Duo........Wufei? Why am I all alone?? Where am I?
And then he remembered. Quatre going insane......threatening the very colonies that he had been sent to protect. Both Heero and Quatre fighting, trying to beat the other.........for their ideal of 'justice'. And then his sacrifice......oh, yes. That was what he remembered the most. His sacrifice.
They all think I'm dead.........but I'm not. I'm here, somewhere, anywhere. But I'm here. It's so cold, I feel like I'm freezing to death. Please.......will someone please come and get me away from this god-awful place? I'm dying...slowly.......inside and out.......
All this time.......all this fighting........for what? In the end, my ideals don't matter.....nothing matters. Just a lonely death, slowly freezing........drifting, alone........caused by an ungrateful sacrifice.
No one will miss me, no one will care that I'm gone........except, perhaps........Cathrine, Quatre, and Heero.
They will care.........and I know that they will miss me once I'm gone.
Oh God! Please, I just want to rest, to be alone. I just want this coldness to end, once and for all!
And so Trowa closed his eyes and drifted, slowly forgetting.........becoming oblivious to the universe.
Cold.........so cold.
