Chapter Ten
Later that morning with Athrun
Athrun couldn't sleep at all the only thing he could do was worry about his wife. He had spent most of the morning watching his and Cagalli children sleep peacefully.
He was also debating with him self whether he should go look for Cagalli right now. He just could not sit around and do nothing when he now knows she is more danger.
All he wanted at this moment was to have his wife back safely in his Arms and with their children.
After another few minutes Athrun debating lead him to decide that even though he had no idea where his wife is held but still he wont stop his decision from going to find her right now.
He got out of the seat and walked over to his children and placed a kiss on top of their head and then quickly placed his shoes and a black jacket on and walked over to the closet, which held his, Cagalli and his children clothes .
Once he opened the closet he pushed the clothing on hangers to one side and opened a small secret compartment and took a handgun, making sure the safety lock was on he then placed the gun in his jacket in gun holder.
Walking over to the door He then opened the door then taking another look at his and Cagalli children and gave them a smile he then stepped out of the room and left the door opened a little.
Once he was out of the room Athrun walked slowly down the stairs been careful not to wake anyone. Once he was down the stairs he carefully opened the door and stepped out of the house closing the door behind him carefully too.
After he closed the door he walked over to his car and placed his hands in his pants pockets to find the keys has he did he find the letter that Cagalli sent to him he looked at it then quickly placed back in her pockets.
Has he begun looking for his keys he heard noises that sounded like rustling in the bushes deciding to ignore at first.
After he found the set of keys he placed the keys back in pockets and heard the rustling sound again. Hearing the noises again Athrun want near to the bushes but he made sure he want behind the other side to catch the person has he did he took his gun out and took the safety lock off getting the gun ready to use just in case
Has he neared the bushes he held his gun out and pointed it at the direction.
"Its not use I seen you so you better come out" Athrun said out loud so who ever in the bushes could hear.
Seconds later a person which figure looked like a man the person stepped out of the bushes with his hand held up.
"Who are you?" Athrun asked still holding the gun in his hand.
The man just kept silent not saying anything at all.
Athrun suddenly placed his hand down with gun and suddenly grabbed hold of the man collar jacket with anger.
"Who are you" Athrun asked once again in a menacing voice.
But the man still kept quiet.
Athrun felt anger surge through "I will ask you once again who are you" he said still gripping on the man jacket collar.
The man still kept silent not speaking a single word or sentence.
With Athrun hand still gripping on the collar jacket Athrun decided to ask him another question.
"You know where my wife is don't you?" Athrun asked dangerously.
The man just smirked at him.
Athrun anger began to rise again he through the man on floor pinning him to the ground almost strangling him.
"Where is she" Athrun asked dangerously.
The man just kept on smirking at him and he suddenly begins to laugh.
"Don't worry my boss is taking good care of her" The man suddenly said.
Athrun glared at the man still gripping on the man jacket collar decided to ask him once again
"Where is my wife"
But the man just laughs and laughs.
Athrun who could not take this guy anymore knocked him out by hitting him on the nape of the neck.
Just has he knocked the guy out Kira showed up.
"Athrun" Kira said shocked.
Athrun looked at his best friend "Kira call Kisaka This Guy know where Cagalli is" He told Kira.
Athrun then want into his jacket pocket to get hold of his keys once he found he walked over to his car again.
"where you going" Kira suddenly asked has held his phone in his hand dialling Kisaka number.
Athrun turn to face his friend has he placed the key in the keyhole.
"I am going to bring Cagalli back" He told Kira simply.
Kira was about to speak but Athrun interrupted him.
"Kira I know what your going to say but I cant just sit around and wait till something show up to do something" Athrun told Kira and brought his attention to the car door.
"I know Athrun but do you think Cagalli would want you to put your self in danger for her sake remember the letter Athrun she want the you, Alex and Lenore to be safe" Kira replied back placing hand on his friend shoulder.
Athrun opened the door and turn around "I know but do really think I am able to sit around any longer when Cagalli is in more danger then she was in with Durandall" Athrun told his best friend.
Kira couldn't help but smile at his best friend or brother in law.
"You really do love my sister don't you " Kira suddenly said.
Athrun turn around to face his best friend while still holding the car door open "Of course I do Kira I love Cagalli so much I cant bear to know she in danger and also not know if she ok or not. Cagalli and the kids are my life and if I ever loose any of them I really don't know what I would do with out them" Athrun replied back.
Athrun then got in the car placing his car key in the ignition he turn back to Kira.
"Kira" Athrun said suddenly.
"yeah" Kira asked looking at his brother in law.
"Could you do me a favour and take care of the Kids for me until I get back with Cagalli" Athrun asked Kira.
Kira nodded "Oh and Athrun" Kira suddenly said waiting for a respond.
"Yeah" Athrun replied.
"Bring my sister back safely wont you" Kira spoke.
Athrun nodded "Of course I will she means everything to me".
"Good" Kira replied and walked away from the car has Athrun closed the door and turn the engine and begun to drive away from Kira and Lacus house.
Kira stood there and smiled "I trust you my friend so you better bring my sister home safe"
With Athrun in the Car
Has Athrun drove the car down the streets of Orb he new that he had no leads to where Cagalli maybe since the guy who was in the bushes wouldn't tell him anything.
Athrun felt very angry with him self for not getting anything out of that guy to find his wife.
Has he drove further into Orb Athrun begin to remember something, When Cagalli and the kids where taken they had been in the limo.
A few years ago both he and Kira had placed a tracker in the limo for Cagalli safety it was before Cagalli and he got married but when they told Cagalli about it. Has expected Cagalli was not a happy bunny about it and asked them to remove the machine straight away even though they both tried to talk to her about it but Cagalli didn't want to know and argued back that she will be safe along with the fact that the driver happened to be in the Orb Military.
Even though at the time he didn't think that even if the driver was a solider of the Orb Military force he did not help Cagalli has he had been knocked out and left behind the bush.
But at that time Cagalli won the argument but both he and Kira was too busy to remove the object and had asked Kisaka to take it and Athrun was.
Athrun begin to think that there maybe a chance that Kisaka did not take it out has it was his only hope to find his wife yes his wife even though they where divorced on paper Athrun in his heart new they where still a married couple with two lovely children.
Suddenly Athrun stopped the car but making sure he had parked away from the road so that he was not blocking the way for other drivers.
Once he stopped the car he picked up his car phone and dialled Kisaka. After to rings Kisaka answered the call.
"Athrun where the hell are you" Kisaka suddenly said has he recognised the number on his caller ID.
"I am going to bring my wife home" Athrun said simply through the speaker.
"I know Kira told me but what I meant Zala is how the hell are you suppose to find Cagalli if you have no leads to her where about" Kisaka told Athrun.
"That why I ringing you" Athrun spoke out.
"If you think that I manage to get info from the guy you knocked out earlier I haven't Zala he still wont speak out about where his boss is located" Kisaka suddenly said.
"No I am not ringing about that" Athrun replied back.
"I am ringing about the tracking device me and Kira asked you to take out from Cagalli limo did you take it out that all I want to know" Athrun continued.
"I asked Murdock to take it out has I was busy at time" Kisaka replied.
"Do you know how I can get in contact with him" Athrun asked through the phone.
"Yeah you can by contacting Erica Simmons but why do you need to know" Kisaka asked.
"Thanks for the help Kisaka and I hope that one way of helping me find my wife and bring her back home to where she belongs" Athrun replied before closing the connection with Kisaka.
After he closed the connection with Kisaka he then dialled Erica Simmons number.
A few rings later she answer the phone.
"Mrs Simmons I have a favour to ask" Athrun suddenly said.
"Athrun is that you what is that you want" Erica replied recognising Athrun voice.
"Could you put Murdock on the phone please.
Erica replied with an "ok" and a few second later Murdock voice came through the phone speaker.
"Hey Zala what is that you want" Murdock said suddenly.
"I hoping you can help me with something to do with Cagalli" Athrun said.
"what is it I be glad to help you out to look for your wife" he replied.
"Good do you remember been asked to take out a tracker from one of Cagalli Limo by Kisaka?" Athrun asked.
"Yeah I remember the commander asking me to that" Murdock replied with confidant.
"Ok did you take it out" Athrun asked quickly with hope that he didn't.
"No I didn't removed it I thought it would be safer to leave it in actually since I know what your wife is capable of placing her self in danger but I didn't get the time to tell Kisaka" Murdock told Athrun.
Athrun who was on the other line couldn't help but feel relieve "Thanks Murdock" He replied and closed the connection with Murdock and begun to start up the engine again.
Once he started the engine he turn on a screen in his car and quickly typed in a code that he remember for that tracker.
Second later a red dot appeared on the screen with a map on it.
"I am coming to bring you home Cagalli please be safe until I get there" Athrun whispered has he started the car up once again and begin to drive to the location where his wife was been held.
With Cagalli
Moments ago Cagalli was sitting on the bed trying think of what Ryu wanted with her but then suddenly the door opened to reveal Ryu.
"Good Morning Mrs Athra" Ryu spoke.
"ITS MRS ZALA" Cagalli shouted back.
"No No Cagalli cant you remember you and Athrun Zala are divorced now" Ryu replied looking at Cagalli .
"On paper we maybe Divorced but in our hearts we are still married" Cagalli replied with a glare.
"How poetic" He replied laughing
Cagalli replied keeping her glare at him "Maybe to you".
"yes Maybe" Ryu said with an smirk
"What do you want with me?" Cagalli asked making sure she kept her glare.
"There is two things I want One is I want your power and the 2nd is revenge from your husband therefore what better way to receive both then your hand in marriage" Ryu told Cagalli.
"WHAT MAKE YOU THINK I MARRY YOU AND GIVE YOU THE POWER TO DESTROY THE PEACE THAT I, MY FAMILY, FRIENDS AND MY PEOPLE WORKED HARD FOR AND WHAT HAS MY HUSBAND EVER DONE TO YOU" Cagalli shouted with full hatred in her eyes.
"Well Mrs Athra you could say your dear ex husband has ruin my life and you will soon agree with me," Ryu told Cagalli with a smirk still on his face.
"What do you mean" Cagalli asked worriedly.
"Which part are you asking about" Ryu asked with a smirk
Cagali glared at him "Both" she replied.
"Well I give you the full answer to what has Zala ever done to me first I ask you a question do you remember a name called Meer Campbell?" Ryu asked with a sadden tone.
Cagalli noticed this "Yes I remember my husband telling me about her" She replied.
Ryu suddenly begin laugh menacingly "I guess you could say it got something to do with her and Zala".
"What do mean?" Cagalli asked.
"Meer Campbell was my fiancée before she decided to become Lacus Clyne that is. We had been a couple for 3 years on our 3rd anniversary I ask her to marry me and she said yes. When she asked me if I mined her becoming Lacus Clyne I wasn't exactly happy about it but it made her happy" Ryu replied.
Cagalli couldn't help but feel sorry for him even if he was holding her hostage at this moment.
"So I agreed to it and let her become Lacus Clyne and when I saw her of course I was shocked she looked like exactly like Lacus Clyne but her personality was still the same. From then we both made a promise that we would be together no matter what but then guess what?" Ryu asked smirking.
""What" Cagalli asked scared?
"Your dear ex husband. Until Meer met Athrun Zala we where both happy that was until she met your ex husband" Ryu continued.
Cagalli of course understood how he felt but still it wasn't a good enough reason for revenge.
"I understand how you feel but it still doesn't give you the reason to do what you plan on doing and it does not explain what having me here would do to Athrun" Cagalli told him with glare.
Ryu laugh "maybe your right about the fact that it does not give me the right to do that but then it my thoughts. And well about what having you here could do to Athrun well you really don't need to be a rocket scientist to guess but I guess you would now already" Ryu replied back.
It was true Cagalli did now the answer has she knows that she and her children mean a lot to Athrun and that Athrun would do anything like she would to keep them safe.
But Cagalli wasn't willing to Ryu hurt Athrun and her unborn baby.
"But don't worry I have a plan that would get you to agree" Ryu suddenly said.
"I mean what if something was to happen to where your dear husband no wait dear ex husband and your children are staying but then one of my men seem to have received information that your dear husband has driven off for a ride but then what if I hurt your lovely children along with their Uncle and Aunt and cousins" Ryu continued.
Cagalli stood rooted at the spot "No you wouldn't" Cagalli said.
"And who said I wouldn't. I have some of my men located at the resident of your dear twin brother and his wife along with you and Mr Zala two lovely children and all it takes is a push of an button for a big explosion of fire works to happen" Ryu Continued.
Cagalli was still rooted to the floor at the time she didn't know what to do she felt like she wanted to lunge at the man in front of her for even thinking of hurting her love ones, and also the fact that he was trying to hurt Athrun emotionally or even physically.
But Cagalli couldn't do that has she was expecting her and Athrun third child she just couldn't risk it or risk her family life has if Athrun wasn't there and something happen to their children Kira and Lacus along with their children would hurt Athrun too and Cagalli new what Athrun was like he would more likely blame it on him self and Cagalli wasn't willing to risk her family and her and Athrun unborn child.
"what are you thinking about Ms Athra" Ryu suddenly said.
Cagalli gave Ryu a fierce glare back "Its Mrs Zala and it none of your business".
"My My what a fierce temper makes me wonder why Athrun Zala would think of you has perfect wife but then again I can see why" Ryu said with an smirk looking at Cagalli up and down .
Cagalli glared back and moved from the spot she rooted on earlier.
"Well by the looks of things I guess you where thinking about the baby inside of you" Ryu suddenly said shocking Cagalli.
"Hhh… How did you know" Cagallia asked shocked.
Ryu smirked "ha you think I wouldn't notice. I am a doctor" He replied.
"I guess now I could threaten your unborn child
"So what is your choice" Ryu suddenly asked after.
Cagalli had no choice but to agree to the marriage or her family will be danger.
"I am only doing this for my family safety" Cagalli replied.
Ryu suddenly smirked "that's fine me after all I have won" he said has he walked closure to Cagalli.
Cagalli backed away from him until she hit her back with the wall she gave the man in front of her a fierce glare.
Ryu then suddenly snatched her left hand "We going to have get rid of these rings" He said has he still had a grip on Cagalli hand.
Cagalli glared at him and snatched her hand back; She then looked down on her left hand to see 2 rings on her 3rd finger.
One ring was the very first ring that Athrun had ever brought which happen to be the very ring he had given to here before he left for plant six years ago.
The 2nd ring on her finger was her wedding ring which was special to both she and Athrun not that the first ring wasn't but the 2nd one was special to her because apart from the fact that both she and Athrun had one.
It was also special to her because it has a unique but simple design on it, It was a gold band around the outside of the ring it a line going around it in a wave like fashion with a small diamond on the middle of each wave of line going around the ring.
Also in the inside of the ring Athrun had asked the jewellers to engrave their names along with the word forever.
Cagalli had not gotten to see the rings till the wedding day too has Athrun wanted to surprise her with what he had asked to be engraved in the ring and the design of the ring too but they did have a talk about weather they should have a gold or silver and they both choice Gold.
Cagalli smiled down at her rings there was no way she was going to take these rings.
"No" Cagalli suddenly said has she sided to one side of the wall.
"No" Ryu repeated.
"No I am not taking these rings off" Cagalli replied.
Ryu just smirked and said "we see about that" has he walked closure to Cagalli.
Cagalli backed away further along the wall until she hit the corner of the walls. She did not know what to do has he gained distance.
Has he got closure to Cagalli they both suddenly heard a voice.
"Get away from her" the voice said.
Cagalli turned her head to where the voice came from "Athrun" Cagalli mumbled shocked to see Athrun standing holding a gun in his hand there she did not weather to be angry or happy to see him.
Yet Cagalli felt both, she was happy to see him yet she was angry to see him to.
"well well well look who here it about time isn't it Cagalli" Ryu suddenly said touching Cagalli cheek.
Athrun was watching him and could not help but think of many ways to hurt the man in front of him but then his wife was in danger and Athrun would never risk her life like that.
So Athrun clench his fist to prevent him from doing anything which he will later regret if the man standing in front of his love one.
Cagalli had mange to move her head so that Ryu hand was not on her face. She then looked at Athrun.
"Athrun why?" Cagalli asked.
"Cagalli do you think I am able to just sit and wait around for I don't how long to hear something happen to. You're the reason why I have always been around for I Love you Cagalli so much that I can't sit around while you could be in danger" Athrun replied looking at his love.
"How sweet" Ryu said has he suddenly pulled out a pocketknife and pulled Cagalli toward him. Making her back face him has he held the knife to Cagalli neck?
"Don't come any closure Mr Zala or I will hurt Mrs Athra here" Ryu continue to say holding the knife in a side angle.
"Why are you doing this" Athrun yelled out with anger.
"I just want revenge that all or power which ever would make me happy in anyway" Ryu laughed out.
"Revenge, Power" Athrun repeated "Why?" Athrun continued.
"Because you took my fiancée away from me," Ryu replied with anger in his eyes and voice.
"Your fiancée" Athrun asked.
"Yes My fiancée Meer Campell" Ryu replied.
"Don't you remember Mr Zala that you took her away from me" Ryu continued.
Athrun looked at the man with anger "That doesn't give you the reason to take Cagalli Hostage and if that was true she never mentioned you to me. All I ever heard her say was that she wasn't needed or wanted has Meer but she would be has Lacus Clyne".
Ryu glared at Athrun "I admit I may have treated her wrongly but that was after she met you and told me how perfect you where. I guess I was jealous and told her that our engagement was over and left her which made her feel unwanted and unneeded but it was your fault and it does give me the right to hold Mrs Athra here Hostage and guess what" Ryu said smirking.
Athrun glared at him "What" He asked.
"I can see why you fell for a woman like Ms Athra here she so feisty" Ryu replied still with a smirk.
Athrun glared at him clutching his fist tight "Let my wife go" Athrun spoke out with anger.
"Well she isn't exactly your wife anymore is she after all your divorced" Ryu stated smirking at Athrun.
"She is still my wife. The woman I love even though if we are divorced on paper" Athrun replied glaring at the man holding his wife hostage.
Ryu suddenly begin to laugh "Well then if you really do love your wife I suggest you place your gun on the floor and slide it towards me"
Athrun kept his glare on Ryu he had no choice but to listen to him so he slowly place the gun down and slides it across the floor to Ryu.
Ryu then bend taking Cagalli down with him to pick up the gun.
When Ryu was distracted with picking the gun his hand, which was holding the knife moved, Cagalli saw this and took an opportunity to get away from him by biting his hand.
Ryu suddenly drop the knife but still manage held the gun in his other. By just a second Ryu had manage to hold the gun up and pointed it at Athrun.
Cagalli was rooted to the spot has she saw Ryu hold the gun out at her husband.
"Say good bye to you husband Ms Athra" Ryu suddenly said smirking he then pulled the trigger Athrun stood there and closed his eyes waiting for the bullet to hit him.
But instead of feeling that he didn't feel anything but he heard the gun go off and hit someone.
"Please No" Athrun suddenly said opening his eyes quickly has he did he saw his wife fall he ran up to her quickly and caught her before she fell on to the ground.
Has Athrun caught Cagalli he noticed she had been shot near her chest and a lot of blood was seeping out of the wound quickly?
Cagalli didn't have time to think about that she could loose her and Athrun baby at the time has she just jumped in front of her husband.
All she though about at that moment was to save Athrun the man she loved so much.
"CAGALLI" Athrun yelled holding on to his wife while placing pressure on the bullet wound hoping to cease the bleeding with hand on top of his wife right hand on the wound.
Ryu was stood there laughing and suddenly said "yes you now know how it feels to loose a love one".
With Cagalli still in his arms holding her tightly while still placing his other hand on her wound he glared at man with pure hatred.
"Cagalli isn't going to die" Athrun replied back.
Ryu begin to laugh again "well then I guess I am goanna have make sure she and your unborn child will then" Ryu said pointing the gun once again at Cagalli but this time at her stomach.
Athrun was shocked when he heard Ryu mention he and Cagalli unborn baby but at that moment he shield Cagalli with his body.
But before Ryu could pull the trigger the room door suddenly opened and Kira along with Kisaka walked in holding guns and pointed it at Ryu.
Kira had managed to shoot the gun out of Ryu hand preventing him from pulling the trigger at his sister and best friend.
Not feeling any bullets hitting him Athrun opened his eyes to see Kira and Kisaka but at this moment all he cared about was the woman who was laid in his arms bleeding.
"Cagalli" Athrun said looking at his wife.
Kira had already called for an ambulance and had told Athrun. He was now stood there watching his best friend hold on to Cagalli his sister tightly has Kisaka handcuffed Ryu.
"Athrun" Cagalli suddenly manage to say opening her eyes to look up at her husband with sadness in her eyes.
"Why didn't you tell me you where carrying our 3rd child" Athrun asked looking down at his wife.
"I am sorry Athrun I am sorry for killing our baby I am so…." Cagalli cried out suddenly.
"Shhhhush Cagalli your hurt don't talk anymore" Athrun replied back quietening his wife.
He then continued "It ok Cagalli even though we may of lost our 3rd child the child would always been in our heart and we could always try again and we also have Alex and Lenore still who have missed their mommy so much".
Cagalli smiled faintly at her husband and brought her left hand placed it on his cheek caressing it.
"I don't know why you ever came back to me after the 2nd war" Cagalli suddenly said looking into her husband emerald green eyes.
Athrun felt a tear slide down from his eyes "Because I love you Cagalli I have always loved you from that day I learn you where a girl" Athrun replied.
"Really" Cagalli asked not believing him has she getting weaker but Cagalli was a strong woman.
"Of course Cagalli what made you think all that?" Athrun suddenly asked placing his other hand on his wife cheek.
Cagalli sadly smiled at him "I guess it was when I heard about how close you where to Meer and Meyrin" Cagalli replied "I thought that maybe you like one of them and only felt that you should give me the ring at the time because well because you just needed to has you had no one has technically you had just known about Lacus and Kira in the first war and well I was your 2nd love and I wont say I am your perfect woman figure" Cagalli continued.
"Cagalli there was nothing going on between me and Meer or even Meyrin. I love you Cagalli only you" Athrun told Cagalli has his hand want from her cheek to tip her chin and he manage to slowly place a passionate kiss on her lips.
When Athrun broke away from the kiss from Cagallli she gave a weak smile "I love you two" she replied has she suddenly lost consciousness.
Athrun watched her slip into consciousness has her hand that was caressing his cheek slip from his face.
"CAGALLI PLEASE STAY AWAKE UNTILL THE PARAMEDICS COME" Athrun yelled out shaking Cagalli a little.
Kira stood there watching has he felt tears slide down his face has he was watching his sister slip into consciousness and his brother law desperately trying keep Cagalli wake, He placed all his hope that his sister would be fine and be back home safely.
Then suddenly Kisaka entered with the Paramedics who where holding a stretcher and a bag.
The paramedics then walked over to where Athrun was holding onto Cagalli and took her from his arms on to the stretcher.
Athrun stayed in the same position and watched them take Cagalli from him and onto the stretcher. He then watched them placed a cloth on to the wound and an oxygen mask onto her mouth.
Walking over to his wife Athrun took her hand into his "Is my wife ok" he asked the paramedics.
"She ok for now but she loosing a lot of blood so we have get her to hospital quick" The paramedic told him.
"Mr Zala are you coming with us" one of the paramedics then ask has both of them carried Cagali on the stretcher outside to the ambulance while Athrun still had Cagalli hand in his.
Athrun nodded his head and walked over to the where ambulance while holding his wife hand all through the walking, He then stopped at the ambulance door and let Cagalli hand go for a moment has they transferred Cagalli in the stretcher into the ambulance, and turn to Kira.
"Could you look after the twins for me?" Athrun asked.
Kira nodded his head "Of course I will they are my nephew and niece".
"Thanks Kira I let you know How Cagalli is" Athrun told Kira.
Athrun then entered the ambulance and sat next to Cagalli holding her hand once again.
"Please be ok Cagalli" Athrun said holding her hand tightly has the ambulance begin to drive out.
At the Hospital
Athrun was now stood outside of the waiting room watching the red light above the entrance door to turn off indicating the operation has finished.
Has Athrun begun to walk back and forth the red light suddenly turns off a few seconds later a doctor came out of the room?
Athrun quickly walked over where the doctor stood "How is my wife" Athrun quickly asked.
"We have manage to take the bullet and patched the wound up but due to the force of the bullet it has damage her lungs a little and due to that we have had to put her on a breathing machine and oxygen mask. She has also lost quiet a lot of blood and it lead her into a coma so it crucial for us to keep a eye on her for the night and I also have some good news about your wife pregnancy" The doctor spoke out.
Athrun looked at the doctor "what about it" He asked.
"Well when you told me earlier that your wife was pregnant and after the operation I did a heart beat check with one of our new special machines and I am happy to tell you that I could hear a heartbeat" The doctor replied back smiling.
Hearing the news Athrun felt so happy but then he thought about the danger that his wife and unborn baby where still in since Cagalli was in a coma.
"What are the Chances of my wife waking up" Athrun asked suddenly.
"Its about 10 percentage so there a little chance she will wake up during these crucial hours I cant do really much but in past when we have had patients in the same condition there have been miracles so all we can do is pray and hope Mrs Zala would wake but there is chance that even if she woke up there maybe a chances she would not recover properly due to the wound to the lungs but we will have to wait and see if she able breath with out the help of the machine and Oxygen mask " The doctor replied.
Then suddenly two nurses and a health assistant came out of the operating room wheeling Cagalli out in a hospital bed.
Athrun stood and watched has they wheeled Cagalli into a private hospital room around the corner.
Athrun then turn his attention to the doctor "Can I go in and see her" He asked.
The doctor smiled at the young co ordinater "Of course you can she is your wife after all and it would also help Mrs Zala there if she hears the voice of her loved ones has it may help her come out of the coma" The doctor replied with a explanation.
Athrun thanked the doctor and walked over to Cagalli private room.
Has he entered the room he saw Cagalli body laid there emotionless with a drip and a bag of blood dangling above her bed with small tubes connected with needle in her skin, she had also had a oxygen mask on still and she was connected to a machine.
Athrun felt like Crying seeing his wife like this but he new he had to be strong for her so he slowly approach his wife bedside, he sat him self on a chair next to her bed on the right, he then took her right hand into his holding it tight.
"Cagalli" Athrun begin to speak.
"I was telling you the truth about that there was never anything going between Meer or even Meyrin" I just felt that I was the blame for Meer death and I was grateful for Meyrin help too. The only woman I have ever had strong feeling was you it was never Lacus, Meer or Meyrin" Athrun continued.
"To tell you the truth I loved you from the very first moment I found out you where a girl" he laugh has he watch his wife hoping to see her wake up and yell at him for what he accused her of been on their first meeting but there was no response so he continued "There no other girl that I have met that could of made me feel like this it has only ever been you" He spoke out at his sleeping wife.
He watched closely hoping he could get another response from her but there was no avail so he decided to talk more hoping it would work.
"Guess what Cagalli" Athrun asked her keeping his eyes on her hoping that she will respond but like earlier there was no avail.
"Our baby is ok, the doctor said that he had found a heartbeat" Athrun spoke again.
"I guess all our children will inherit your survive full genes I know that Alex and Lenore have got it, they miss you so much Cagalli and I also missed you too I wouldn't know what to do if I ever lost you. Both Alex and Lenore kept on asking me I am going to bring you home and I promised them I will" He continued.
He then asked "so Cagalli please could you wake for me and our children and help me keep my promise to Alex and Lenore" hoping to a response from his wife.
But still there was no response so Athrun decided to go get a something to eat he wasn't giving up hope on it. But Athrun hadn't eaten anything and he new that Cagalli would properly yell at him for not eating or looking after him self when she woke up, and also if he didn't look after him self he would not be able to take care of Cagalli and their children.
