Disclaimer: Gundams SEED doesn't belong to me, much as I want it to.
A/N: another what-if... Gundam SEED provides a lot of opportunities for fics like these... ok, I wanted to make it longer, but it is a teaser... an awful way to end off this chapter, but who cares, I don't want reveal too much yet.
Summary: what if... on Orb, Kira accidentally revealed his identity to the rest of the ZAFT pilots??

Incognito... Not Anymore

"Just like a wolf in sheep's clothing..." ah, a reference that Nicol made. It was appropriate, and it was a good idea... but then, who? Just then, a green object flew through the evening sky towards Athrun.
"Tori!" cried the bird. Athrun's eyes widened in shock... masaka? Torii?
"Athrun?"
Athrun, lifted his hand for the mechanical bird to perch... it was a natural action... it was one he had done a good many times when he was young. Then he brought the bird to his face, peering at it curiously. Torii cocked its head questioningly as the rest of Team Kleuze gathered around their commander peering at the foreign object on their comrade's hand.
"What is that?" Yzak asked. Of course he knew what he was... but he just asked it.
"It's a robot-bird" replied Nicol automatically, still peering curiously at the bird. Athrun then look up. If the pet were there, the owner had to be somewhere nearby. He searched visually for a familiar person.
Then Kira, dressed in a mechanic's outfit walked out of a building searching the sky for Torii. As Athrun caught sight of his old friend, his gasped quietly. Kira was oblivious however, still calling out his pet's name. Slowly, Athrun walked towards the fence that separated the compound from the outside world. Nicol eyed his friend. There was something faintly off about Athrun. His eyes followed Athrun's movement and caught sight of a boy in Orb's uniform.
"It must be his." Nicol exclaimed.
"Where did it go?" muttered Kira worriedly. He halted about 10 meters from the fence, seeing Athrun. Kira's eyes widened in recognition.
"Athrun..." Kira murmured. Then he took more steps towards his friend, closer.
"Stop."
"It's ...yours?" asked Athrun. He didn't really need to know. He knew already. The Aegis gundam's pilot's voice sounded strained as he held out Torii.
"Ah, arigatou..." replied Kira as he reached out a hand to receive Torii. The bird hopped off Ahtrun's hand to land on Kira's. the two boys shared a brief moment staring into each other's eyes.
"let's go." Shouted Dearka from the car. Athrun turned back to face his friends and started walking. Kira faltered, reared back about 2 meters than braced himself as he climbed up the fence, when he reached the top, Kira held his breath then jumped down gracefully. From the car, the 3 other Gundam pilots gasped...
"Athrun!" shouted Kira's voice. Then a huge force drove all the air out of his lungs. He was enveloped in a pair of arms. Kira leant his head on Athrun's shoulder; tears ran easily down his cheeks. Athrun looked upon the bundle resting on his chest and murmured 'Kira' as he stroked the other coordinator's chocolate brown hair. Torri perched, forgotten on Kira's shoulder.
At the car, Yzak's eyes narrowed. What was Athrun doing? Nicol glanced worriedly at Yzak before returning his eyes to the scene in front of him. Dearka giggled, but did not act. The green-haired boy knew the strange boy to be a coordinator. No natural could land on his feet jumping from such a height. At the actions were smooth, seamless.
Athrun glanced at the mop of brown hair and asked of Kira to see his face so that he could see. Violet met Emerald and they studied each other, taking in details as if they saw each other for the first time.
