Life Goes On
Part 2
Relena awoke to a huge breakfast Quatre had surprised her with. "Why Mr. Winner what brings you here?" Relena asked sweetly. "Miss Relena, it will be my pleasure to escort you to the meeting today at noon." Quatre answered back. And so they spent the morning talking about their futures together. Quatre's limo came by and drove them to the meeting. "You seem tense Relena. Anything wrong?" Quatre asked Relena. "I don't know. I feel like something awful is going to happen. I just don't know." Relena said. "Quatre hugged Relena and said. "Don't worry. I'm sure it's nothing." When they arrived to the building where the meeting was to be held, they were greeted by a huge crowd. Quatre got off first and then helped Relena off the limo. The happy couple began to walk towards the building. Pictures were being taken. Relena saw flashes of lights. She saw Quatre smiling brightly. She could tell he was happy and so was she. Quatre was a good man with a good heart. And that is what she needed. She needed him and he needed her. Yes, she had found happiness now. She was happy now. The throughout the flashes of the cameras Relena noticed a gun aimed at her and her smiled faded. Shots were heard. Then she saw the artificial sky. She saw blood. She saw Quatre looking down at her. Tears in his eyes. She saw flashes of lights. She saw people, hundreds of them. She heard Quatre calling her name. Then she remembered Heero. She closed her eyes. And Quatre's voice was heard from away. I'm sorry. Was all she can think of and then she remembered nothing in the darkness.
She had closed her eyes. She had stopped breathing. "Relena!" Was all Quatre could say. He was crying. His tears falling onto Relena's bloody face. The medics arrived. They tried to revive her, but Quatre knew it was already too late. Relena Peacecraft was dead. The gunshots had come from the crowd. Security was still chasing the assassin. Relena was being taken into an ambulance. Quatre rod with her, he saw the medics trying and trying to save her. Quatre merely stared at her body. We could have been so happy together. Quatre thought and then he began to sob harder.
Heero woke up in a sweat. He had been having a nightmare. He couldn't remember what it was about, but it had scared him. He stared at the ceiling. He heard the people from upstairs screaming and arguing. No wonder I woke up sweating and my heart beating with all that damn noise upstairs. Heero thought. Then there was a knock at the door. Heero picked up his gun and opened the door to reveal Duo looking worried and scared. "Heero, did you find out already?" Duo said breathing hard. "What are you talking about?" Heero asked. Duo gave him a look. "Oh man. You better turn on the tv Heero." Duo said. Heero gave him a death glare and turned to turn on the tv.
Duo watched Heero turned on the tv and sat on the couch next to Heero. I wonder how he'll take it. Duo thought. Then a picture of Relena was shown and the newscaster spoke.
"A few minutes before noon Prime Minister Relena Peacecraft along with Quatre R. Winner walked together for a meeting held at Colony L4."
A picture of Relena and Quatre holding hands and smiling at the cameras is shown.
"But sadly shots were heard and Prime Minister Relena Peacecraft was shot. The shooter has been captured and identified but authorities are not giving his name out."
Then a picture of Relena being shot and going down while the crowd went wild. Then a picture of Quatre holding a bloody figure of Relena are a shown.
Duo felt Heero's anger building up. He noticed Heero's eyes twitch a bit. Oh no. He's mad. Duo thought.
"This just in" The reported announced.
Both Heero and Duo stared at the tube.
"At 12:01pm Colony L4 time. Prime Minister Relena Peacecraft has been announced dead from gunshots wounds to the chest. I repeat at 12:01pm Colony L4 time, Minister Relena Peacecraft has been announced dead from…"
Heero had turned off the TV. "Relena" Heero whispered. Duo looked at him. Heero was on the verge of screaming but all he had said was Relena's name. "I'm sorry." Duo said and left Heero in misery.
