Shooting Stars Sequel
I don't own GW or its characters. I'm not (sadly) paid.
Sunlight filled the bedroom. It hit the two people on the bed, engulfing them in a warm white light. Suddenly there was a loud beeping sound, and it didn't stop.
The man, who was the closest to the vid-screen, groaned, "no, too early for this." But he pressed the "talk" button and his best friends' face popped up.
"Hiya, Heero!" Duo Maxwell said, grinning like the baka he was.
"Hnn." Heero replied, annoyed. 'He just had to call me right now, when I was'— He broke off, shaking his head and growled, "what do you want Maxwell?"
Duo smiled wider and saw the other lump next to Heero. "Busy night?" He asked, Heero mouthed "I will kill you", but stopped when a voice asked, "Who's that, Heero?"
"It's just Duo, Relena," Heero said, turning his head slightly to see his wife, wearing a tight, uh…silk nightgown.
Duo was about to whistle when both Relena and Heero turned around to the sound of a loud WHAM!
"Don't even think about it, Maxwell!" Relena's best friends voice yelled. Hilde came on screen, and they both saw that she held a frying pan in her right hand, bacon flying everywhere.
"Morning Hilde," Relena and Heero said together, smiling at the sight.
"Good morning," Hilde smiled back, and then turned to Duo. "You better tell him."
"Hnn?" Heero asked, his expression changing. Relena came over and sat behind him, resting her head on his shoulder.
"We've got a new mission, Heero," Duo said, somberly, as Hilde nodded in agreement in the background.
Duo explained it to him, letting himself talk into silence.
"Do you know who it is?" Relena asked, brows furrowed together.
"Not a clue. It's definitely not OZ or White Fang." Duo answered, shaking his head, sending his braid flying all over the place. "OUCH! HILDE!" Hilde had grabbed the braid from hitting her face, and smiled. "Sorry."
"I better get ready then," Heero interrupted. "Where are we meeting?"
"L1 Colony. Right outside, by the floating spacestation."
"Got it." Heero answered, pressing the "off" button.
"Going so soon?" Relena asked, pouting. 'She looks so innocent, so pure,' Heero thought, smiling at her.
"I'm sorry, love," Heero responded. Relena's eyes widened in shock because Heero said "love". She was still sitting there ten minutes later when he came out of the bathroom, changed, into a pair of blue jeans and a white pressed shirt. He was trying to button it up, but saw Relena still there.
"Relena?"
"Sorry. Dazzled." Came her reply. Heero laughed and gathered her up in his arms, lifting her to the bed.
"Just go back to sleep. I'll come back to you, I promise." Heero whispered huskily into her ear, making her heart beat quicken. "It's one promise I know I'll keep."
"Good luck, Heero, and come back alive," Relena whispered back, kissing him. Heero reluctantly pulled back, eyes pained to go. He lifted his hand in a farewell salute, and shut the apartment door behind him.
Relena ran to the balcony, and a few seconds later saw him emerge below. He stopped and turned up to face her.
"Don't cry," he said, knowing she couldn't hear him, only read his lips.
"I won't," Relena said back, tears spilling down her cheeks.
*********
The battle was intense. Their new enemy knew they'd be coming and there were tons of MS waiting for them when they arrived. They managed to get the upper hand for a while. Slowly, they were loosing ground.
"We…can't…do this…alone!" Trowa panted, raising his Gundam's knife, slicing through two mobile dolls.
"I know…we're loosing ground and only WuFei is actually making it to the station, but once he gets there," Quatre trailed off, silently, and then typed something on his keyboard. The ZERO system was activated.
"Heero, go left, Duo right, Trowa, you head up to them, and I'll take the others. On every count of three, attack!" Quatre commanded, his eyes traveling around the battle ground.
They were slowly making their way around the dolls, but soon it was no use.
"We're doomed!" Duo moaned, his head in his hand.
"No we're not. I refuse to stop until I'm sure we'll loose," Heero growled, turning around and blasting ten MD into smithereens with his Twin Buster Cannon.
"Heero—don't forget, you have a family to go home to," Trowa's voice came over on the speaker, softly. "Relena's waiting for you."
Heero slowed his pace down, knowing truly what Trowa was saying was right. He was no longer the emotionless pilot, but the pilot with a wife. A wife to protect, to come home to.
"Right," Heero grumbled, but then jerked his head up. "What was that?"
"Ooops, sorry," Duo mumbled, blushing. "Hilde sent me a card…"
There were four groans, and they were soon laughing, but their attention was riveted to a large blast.
"NO!"
**********
It had been almost one whole year since Heero and the other Gundam Pilots went into space to fight. It had been all over the news. They had managed to destroy the enemy, but officials said they couldn't find any trace of the Gundams. Their girls lost hope. All but Relena.
Relena had someone else in her life to remind her of Heero. Someone she'd never forget; protect.
She cared for their son, Odin (okay, yeah I know, Heero's real name is Odin, and they—well, Relena—name him Odin. Just go with me on this!).
She was putting him to bed and was going to crawl into bed herself when there was a knock on the apartment door.
'Who could that be? At this hour?' Relena thought, glancing at the clock which read midnight. She opened the door to see a young man standing there, Prussian eyes smiling down at her in her silk nightgown.
'Those eyes,' Relena stared, then, "Heero?"
He nodded, and said, "you changed the lock. My key didn't work anymore." Relena's eyes widened in shock: she did change the lock, but didn't tell anyone. She let out a giggle, and let Heero in.
Her eyes widened as she remembered Odin. "Oh, Heero, I have to show you"— She turned and walked into what Heero remembered being the spare bedroom. It was now cluttered with little toys, a rocking chair by the window, and a crib.
Heero's eyes widened at the sight, and did a double-glance. "A crib?" he thought aloud.
"Yes," Relena laughed. She bent down and lifted a sleeping baby. He had the same chocolate hair as Heero in a mess. "Meet your son, Odin Yuy."
"My-my son?" Heero stammered, gingerly taking the baby from Relena. The baby opened his eyes, startling Heero with its Prussian colour.
"Same eyes, same hair," Relena whispered, laying her head against Heero's shoulder. The baby didn't wail, but look up at his father, and his mother. He then reached his pudgy arms out at Relena.
"He wants his Mommy," Heero laughed, handing him over.
"All day long he wants his Mommy. I can hardly sleep," Relena confessed.
"Well, I'm here, and I am the father," Heero said, watching Relena as she laid Odin to sleep in his crib.
They then walked hand in hand back to the master bedroom. While lying in bed, before falling asleep, Relena asked, "what happened after you destroyed them?"
"Relena," Heero began, turning to face her. "It was horrible, and I don't want to bother you with it."
"I understand," Relena replied, her eyes full of concern. "Where you hurt?"
"Er—no, I wasn't," Heero lied. He didn't want to worry Relena by telling her he was unconscious for three months and that he had a wound cut on his arm.
"That's great," Relena yawned, "my Perfect Soldier."
She then was asleep, Heero not awake for much more either before joining her, snoozing.
********
Heero woke up when he heard the sound of wailing. 'Relena?' He thought, glancing over to her, still laying peacefully still, sleeping. 'No, the baby.'
He got up and walked into Odin's room. He lifted him up and Odin stopped crying. Heero spied a bottle, and gave it to him. Odin began to drink, then burped. He closed his eyes drowsily, and fell asleep quite quickly.
"You make a good father," Relena's voice said. Heero turned to see her leaning against the door frame, smiling.
"I guess I'm a natural," he laughed, placing the baby back into his crib, moving a stuffed rabbit away, and tucking him under the blue blanket.
"Yes," Relena agreed, and together they watched their son sleep, peacefully, as the moon shone down on the happy family.
The End
Okay, what did you guys think? I was thinking of making another series, you know, like "Shooting Stars S(sequel): Odin's story". Do you think I should?
