A/N: I've read this review, asking me when did Relena become the wicked witch of the west… Well, I didn't really mean to imply that Relena's a wicked witch of the west. We all know that Relena has this thing for Heero, and it'll be hard to accept that he's actually with someone else.
Well, anyways, I've decided to give you another impression of Relena here. She won't be a witch, she won't wreak havoc, and she WON'T be a bad guy. Okay? Sorry to all those who liked Relena. I never meant you any offense.

Chapter 21: Shocking News
"WHAT! Relena's coming here?" Jazmine gasped in fear. She was already thinking that having Relena in their school was a bad thing because she had a 'thing' for Heero and well; Heero was already in a relationship!
"Calm down Jazmine. It's not like Relena's a wretched witch or something. You'll see. Relena's a nice girl." Duo assured his girlfriend. He knew Relena wouldn't come here to just ruin relationships and all that. He knew her; he knew she was nice.
"But Duo,"
"No buts Jazmine. Trust me." Duo looked Jazmine in the eye, giving her an assurance that he was telling the truth.
"Fine Duo. I believe you." Duo smiled as he wrapped his arms around Jazmine. Marie smiled at the two lovers—she just knew they were meant for each other.
"I believe we should leave them on their own." Trowa said, placing a hand on Marie's shoulder. Marie nodded.
"Right." Trowa and Marie exited Jazmine's room quietly.

"They said Relena Peacecraft is coming to this school…" Violet heard as she passed by a couple of students gathered as a crowd. Violet cleared her throat, causing them to look at her.
"I don't want you to talk about our newcomer, might it be good or bad. Give her a chance before you judge her." Violet said seriously. She knew what might happen if Relena came, but Violet knew better than to judge her.
"Yes Violet."
"Good. See you later." Violet smiled, nodded her head and left the girls. She had the job to get Relena at the gate and tour her around the campus. As Violet neared the gate, a black limousine came to her view.
"Thank you for the ride Pagan." Relena Peacecraft stepped out of her limousine and passed through the gate. Violet walked up to her, and upon reaching her, introduced herself.
"Good morning Miss Relena. I am Violet Beverly, the governess of this school. Welcome to our school." Violet smiled and offered a friendly handshake. Relena smiled back, and took Violet's hand.
"Good morning to you too. I'm glad to be here."
"May I just say that it's an honor for me to meet you." Violet said. It was true; Relena was a well-known pacifist and that was what made Relena so perfect in Violet's eyes.
With the introduction done, Violet gave Relena a tour of the school, all the while thinking of how lucky she was to be with a well-known pacifist. However, Violet could not help but feel remorse whilst she was with Relena. There was this mentality in her that was simply screaming out that Violet had blood all over her hands while Relena… was innocent and pure.
"This is where you will stay, Miss Relena. I hope you find your room suitable for you." Relena smiled at Violet's hospitality and nodded. "Of course it will be. Thank you for the tour; this place is really lovely." Violet curtsied and waited for Relena to enter her room before proceeding to her own room.
When she reached her room, Heero was not there, causing her to conclude that he was back in his own room, doing his own thing. Violet sat down in front of her laptop and turned it on, sighing as she looked out of the window, waiting for her laptop to load.
'I wonder what lies ahead. Having Miss Relena here was really a surprise, but I must admit, it does feel great to welcome her. Althought, I can't help but feel so different from her. What's causing me to feel this? Maybe it's because I've killed many and—'
"Ding dong!" Violet was cut off from her deep thinking by an e-mail alert. She opened the e-mail and was shocked by its content.
Dear Violet,
It is I, Yu. I sincerely hope you remember me, because I know I still remember you. It has been a while since we have heard from each other, and I am hoping that it'll be soon when you read this e-mail. I am currently hiding from the authority because of what I have done. I guess you already know that.
I shall not delay my true message any further, for this e-mail is very important for both you and I. You will find it hard to believe, but I know that somewhere in your heart, you will find that this is true.
You and I share the same mother, Violet. Valentine Noster—that's the name of your mother, am I right? My father, Shingetsu, bore her a son, which is me, two years before you were born. When my father started the Black Rose Organization, mother filed a divorce, fearing for her life. Soon, she found your father, Hanson Beverly, and you were born.
If you want proof, come meet me in Foreshire Park, on Christmas Eve. I shall be waiting for you there. I trust you, and I will not blame you if you turn me in on the police after our conversation. My only hope is that you come and listen to what I say—it'll be enough.
Sincerely yours,
Yu
Violet immediately closed the e-mail and shut her eyes, trying to maintain composure. This was not possible at all. She and Yu couldn't be half-brother and half-sister. It was not true. It could never happen, right?
Confusion was stirring thoughts in her mind. She didn't know whether to believe or not. A big part of her said it was a lie, but there was still a small part of her saying not to give up about this. But why would she not give up on it? Why? Yet, that was just a small pat of her concerns; what occupied her the most was Yu's objective.
'What if Yu's just trying to set me up? What if this is all just part of a plan to kill me? What if… What if it is true?' Violet buried her face in her hands in deep thought. She couldn't bring herself to face the fact that it may be true, because the details were all falling into place. The pieces of the puzzle of her past all seemed to make sense now with Yu's e-mail.
"Mom!" Violet yelled as she and a boy stepped into the house. Valentine Noster, her mother, came out of the kitchen, looking like a mess with sweat dripping down the side of her face and with her unruly her. Still, Violet did not mind; she ran to her mother and threw her arms around waist as she smiled.
"Mom, this is my new friend! He's our new neighbor, the one who moved next door! Meet Yu!" Violet practically dragged Yu towards Valentine, who was obviously dumbfounded. Violet's eyebrows furrowed when she saw her mother's expression. She tugged on Valentine's dress, trying to get her attention
"What's wrong mommy?" Violet asked innocently. Valentine shook her head and smiled. "Nothing's wrong, my daughter. Go and play with Yu; I'm sure you two will find a lot of things in common amongst yourselves." Violet beamed at her mother before pulling Yu up the stairs to her room, unaware of the lie that her mother had just said.
Violet took a deep breath and turned her attention to the calendar. 'Today's December 22… I have two days to decide.' She pulled open her drawer and took out an awfully familiar photo frame. Violet could only sigh as she looked at it—Yu and she were standing together, hand in hand, with a childish grin on their faces.
'Yu Satoshi… Things can't get more complicated than this.'
