The Unknown Reflection
By ~*Ai*~Wing
Prologue
It is the year A.C. 197. All wars between resistance factions, the
Earth and the colonies have been settled for one whole year. The goal of the E.S.U.N. is directed towards
pacifism in hopes of achieving total peace one day. All those involved in Mariemeia's and Dekim Barton's Operation:
Meteor has now moved on with life.
Relena Darlian now busily attends to her
duties as Vice Foreign Minister.
Although, she is always occupied with endless tasks, she still stays
optimistic. Her job has brought her
happiness and pride, as she is able to contribute so much to the world she so
loves. There is only one unsettling
matter that she constantly thinks about…
Each and every one of the Gundam pilots has
gone their separate ways too.
Duo Maxwell operates the junkyard with his
girlfriend, Hilde Schbeiker on a colony in L2.
Their business can be considered very successful as they find that they
hardly have any free time now a day.
Trowa Barton is still with his job at the
circus. He is still a clown and enjoys
this simple life while he lives with his only family, his sister, Catherine
Bloom.
Quatre Raberba Winner is managing the
businesses of the Winner Corporation with the help from a few of his 29
sisters. His family's business has
thrived under his command. Quatre has
kept up his family's reputation as a respectable bloodline.
While all pilots are inactive status Preventers
agents, Wufei Chang makes that exception.
He works full time as a Preventers agent along with Milliardo
Peacecraft, Lucrezia Noin and Sally Po under the command of Lady Une.
However, there is one pilot whose
activities are ever so concealed. He is
the pilot of Gundam 01, Heero Yuy. For
all they know, he could be protecting the Vice Foreign Minister in the shadows
to keep his promise to her, made so long ago.
He could be an undercover agent for the Preventers. He could be hidden somewhere in L1 or he
could be anywhere in the vast universe with the intention of staying away from
everyone else.
"Hello…Duo, Trowa, Quatre and Wufei. Come on in." Relena welcomed her own guests herself. It was a reunion gathering held at the Peacecraft estate. Even though Relena no longer considers
herself a Peacecraft, her brother had convinced her to stay with him in the
huge estate.
"Is Hilde here yet?" Duo asked.
"Yes, she's helping me with the
preparations for refreshments." Relena said warmly, although in truth she was
quite disappointed.
"Refreshments? Do you mean 'food'?
That's great, because I'm famished." Duo exclaimed.
"Yes.
This way please." Relena led her
guests to the porch veranda since it was so beautiful outside.
Not soon after everyone sat down did Hilde
and Pagan bring in the refreshments.
Relena and Hilde had bonded when they met again after the Mariemeia
incident.
"Hilde!
Babe, I've missed you!" Duo exclaimed while helping himself to the
pastry.
"We saw each other this morning, silly!"
Hilde reminded him.
"Oh, yeah." Duo said with his mouthful.
"Please, Maxwell. Swallow before you talk." The annoyed Wufei said.
"Sorry, Wufie." Duo apologized with glee.
"What did you call me?" Wufei yelled in
anger.
"Wufie…or do you like Wu-man better?" Duo
asked while snickering.
"This is purely an injustice!" Wufei announced
in rage.
"Let's quiet down a bit, please. We're not here to cause any trouble." Quatre
pleaded while stirring his tea.
"Say, where's Heero anyway?" Hilde asked.
"I don't know where the idiot of a pilot
is. We couldn't contact the stubborn
bastard." Duo said as he began munching on some cupcakes.
"Mmmmm…these are delicious! Who made them?" Duo questioned right after
taking bite.
"Relena did." Hilde told him.
However, Relena wasn't paying the least bit
of attention. Quatre noticed her dazed
look.
"Are you ok, Miss Relena?" Quatre asked
with concern.
"Huh?
Yes, I'm fine…Quatre! How many
times did I tell you to drop the Miss?" Relena scolded as she snapped back into
the present.
"I'm terribly sorry M…uh…Relena." Quatre
said softly.
"There's no need to be sorry, Quatre."
Relena replied with a warm smile.
Then she looked up into the clear blue sky
and sighed.
Where are you? My Perfect Soldier…
A.N.: Hi! I'm here again with
another story. I know, I know. It sounds like any other plain dumb story,
but I (almost) promise that it'll get better later on! Alright, let's keep going!
