Violins and Roses - Chapter One
It was a beautiful morning in the L4 colony, when a young man woke up from his slumber. Then
he sat up and yawned. After the young man managed to sit up, he turned off the alarm.
The time was approximately six-thirty in the morning. The young man then walks over to his
bedroom window and sees people moving to and fro. After a long night in
the colony, the sun finally comes out of its hiding place among space, promising a beautiful day.
Finally, the young man walks out of his bedroom, and heads to his bathroom to take his morning
shower. As he was walking down the hallway, he began to feel as if something was missing in
his life. But he didn't know why.
After the young man took a shower and got dressed, he goes to the kitchen to have breakfast.
Then he notices a great aroma. The aroma made his mouth water. Then he saw the delicious
food on the table.
"Good morning Quatre!" the young man's chef greeted.
"Good morning Dan!" Quatre greeted back.
"I hope that you enjoy the Hollywood eggs and sausage that I made for you."
"It looks delicious, thank you." And with that, Quatre quickly devoured the food.
Between eating his breakfast, Quatre drank the green tea and orange juice that Dan also
prepared for him. Then he remembers seeing on the news that new trees were planted at
the Botanical Garden at Green Square Park, the biggest, and most popular park in the L4 colony.
After he finishes having his breakfast, he thanks Dan for the meal, and tells him that he is
leaving.
On his way to the park, Quatre happened to pass his father's mansion. After his father,
Mr. Winner died, Quatre as the heir, takes over what is left of the Winner family's company.
Just like his father, and as he always dreamed of, Quatre is now a pacifist who promotes
peace.
Because of Quatre's promotion of pacifism, the people of the colony now live without hardships,
except for those provided by life. The people will not have to fear when they will be attacked.
They will no longer have to look over their shoulders.
Eventhough Quatre took over what his father left behind, he chooses not to live in his father's
mansion. There are just too many memories for him. So he wanted to move forward.
Buying his own mansion for starters, was Quatre's way of looking forward. But he hired a
housekeeper to keep his father's mansion tidy and neat.
As he waited for the local bus, which he takes to Green Square Park, he was greeted by a middle-
aged man.
"Good morning!," the man greeted.
"Good morning!," Quatre greeted back.
Then finally, the bus comes, and Quatre gets on. Then he pays his fare, and takes a seat.
Luckily, no person recognized him.
After a half-hour ride, the bus stops at Green Square Park. Then Quatre gets off of the
bus, and walks to the entrance. On his way to the Botanical Garden, Quatre passes the zoo, the
picnic grounds, the souvenir shop, a beautiful lake, and a ice skating building.
//I can't believe it. They finally finished the ice skating building.//
Six months after the war ended, the citizens decide to increase the size of Green Square Park.
That was two years ago.
Then finally, Quatre makes it to the Botanical Garden.
//I haven't been here in along time. I wonder what kind of trees are being planted this year.
I can't wait to see them.//
While Quatre was in the Botanical Garden, he stopped to look around at the many beautiful
flowers. But the flower that really caught his eyes, was the rose. Roses were Quatre's
favorite flowers. Not only did he like the appearance of them, but he also loves the
fragrance that they give off.
After Quatre was through with looking at the flowers, he then goes to where the trees were
being planted.
"Hey Susan, aren't the trees beautiful?"
"They sure are."
The newly planted trees were very beautiful indeed.
"Those baby trees sure are cute," said a young girl.
"Mommy, what kind of trees are they? asked a little boy.
"Those are chestnut trees Milton."
"Chestnut?"
"Yes, Milton."
Quatre smiled at the sight. He thought that it was very good that a little boy should learn
about nature. During his childhood, Quatre noticed when some boys at school would throw stones
at the birds and squirrels that would dwell around the schoolyard. This happened around recess.
One day, the boys had succeeded in knocking down a bird, thus breaking its wing. But it didn't
stop there. The boys then began stepping on the bird, killing it within seconds.
Seeing the gruesome sight that he saw, Quatre was in shock. He remembered both his nanny and his
father telling him that he must respect all living creatures, big and small. They also told him
that animals have feelings just as people do. He would never forget that.
Then Quatre's thoughts went back to the sight of the baby trees.
//Those trees are beautiful indeed.//
When Quatre finished looking at the baby chestnut trees, he went to the lake that he passed
earlier. The lake was beautiful indeed. Then he saw the swans and ducks that inhabited the
area.
//Maybe it would be a great idea to feed the ducks.//he thought as he went to the breadcrumb
machines and deposited a quarter. He then had to use his shirt as a basket as crumb after
crumb came pouring out of the machine. What he didn't know, was that the machine provided
25 cents a 'bucket.' That was until he read the sign.
"Hey mister, are you having any problems?" said a park ranger who was not too far away.
"Yes, I didn't know that a person has to have a bucket."
"I see. Hold on, and I will return with one."
"Okay, thanks."
Within minutes, the man returns with a bucket. Then he hands it to Quatre, who accepts it
greatfully.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome. Have a nice time feeding the ducks."
"Okay, thanks again."
Then Quatre walked over to the lake to feed the ducks. He watched in fascination how the
Geese and ducks dove into the water after being in the air just a few seconds before. They
were like jetboats.
//Such amazing creatures.//he thought.
Another amazing thing, is how the ducks would come up to a person who fed them. There was a
time when Quatre witnessed a Goose snatching a bucket of crumbs from an old lady because she
didn't toss the crumbs quick enough. This incident happened just last year.
After an hour of feeding the ducks, Quatre was getting quite hungry himself. He actually
had an idea to go back and forth to refill the bucket with crumbs. Then he goes to look for the
park ranger. That was when he was confronted by another park ranger.
"Excuse me, but are you finished with that bucket?" she said.
"Yes ma'am."
"Then may I have that bucket please?"
"Yes, feel free."
"Okay, thank you. Have a nice day."
As Quatre walked out of the park, he begins to notice his stomach rumbling. Then he remembered
that there was a fast food restaurant nearby. When he walked to the street where the restaurant,
was supposed to be located, he saw that it was still there.
Seeing that the restaurant was still around, Quatre entered. He then ordered a cheeseburger, a
medium fry, and a Coke. Then he went to sit at a quiet corner where he could contemplate his
thoughts while having his lunch.
While Quatre was eating, he began to think of the others, especially Trowa. he hadn't seen the
other formal Gundam pilots in a long time. The last time he saw Heero and Relina, was at their
wedding. But that was six months ago.
"So Elizabeth, did you have a good time with Michael?"
"Yep. I sure did."
Then something made Quatre turn around as the two females sitting close by, engage in their
conversation.
"Michael is such a nice guy. I really enjoyed his company."
"And you're in love with him, aren't you?"
"Yes, Carmen. How do you know?"
"I know because of the way you two look at each other."
At that point, Quatre began to realize that the all of the formal Gundam pilots are with a female
companion except for him. Heero and Relina are now married. Sally and Wufei are now a couple,
and trowa and Catherine are engaged, as well as Duo and Hilde.
Just two weeks ago, Quatre had an e-mail message from Duo. In Duo's letter, he stated that he
had seen Wufei and Sally in the Bahamas when he and Hilde were on Earth. They decided to go
there on a date.
After Quatre finished his lunch, he went to the bus stop to go home. But he just remembered that
he was running out of toothpaste and hair mousse. So he decided that he was going to catch the
bus, and then walk to the Sunnydale Shopping Center.
_____________________
Meanwhile, a young woman looks at a shopping list of items that she pulls out of her pocket as
she walks into a drug store at the Sunnydale Shopping Center. But what this young lady didn't
know, was that someone was watching her. So far, the young woman was the only person who was
walking alone. With that in mind, the person decided to wait for her when she comes out of the
shop.
Finally after ten minutes of walking, Quatre cathes a glimpse of the shopping center. He was
waking through the parking lot, when he noticed a suspicious looking man outside of the
drugstore. The man was standing close to a grey vehicle.
By the time Quatre made it to the store, he also noticed a young woman coming out. She had a bag
full of stuff, and was heading towards a gray vehicle. A few seconds later, Quatre saw that the
suspicious man who he saw earlier, was approaching the woman. That was when he sensed trouble.
Just as the young woman was opening the trunk of her car, she was grabbed from behind. Then she
felt something cold and sharp against her neck. The first thing that comes to her mind, was that
it was a knife. Her thoughts were confirmed when she saw both her and the man's reflection in
the back window of her car.
"Either you give me your money, or I will kill you right here," the man said in her ear, keeping
his voice as low as possible. At that moment, the woman was so afraid that she just stood there.
But she tried her very best to remain calm.
"Hey!"
The sudden shout did not only startle the perpetrator, but also alerted other people who were in
the area. Then the would-be-mugger looks around for where the shout came from. That was when
he saw a young man approximately in his late teens, who stood no taller than five feet and seven
inches tall.
//This guy couldn't possibly be...//
That was when the young woman seized the moment. She then reached behind her, and squeezed the
man's testicles in one quick movement until he let her go. Then the young woman tornado kicked
the man in the face, making him fall backwards. Surprised as he was, he fled the scene.
Many witnesses were in shock when they saw what happened. So they just stood there. The young
woman also stood where she was, but she was also clutching her heart. Then the young man who
shouted earlier, walked up to her to see if she was alright.
"Are you okay?," Quatre asked while at the same time, was also in shock.
"I'm fine, thank you," the young lady said as her brown eyes met Quatre's.
After the young woman answered Quatre's question, she knelt down and refilled her shopping bag
that she dropped during the attempted robbery. Quatre helped her. Within minutes, the police
arrived. Then they walked into the drugstore.
"Did somebody call?," an officer asked the salesclerk.
"Yes. Someone came and told me that someone was being mugged just outside of this store."
"Can you please show me where?"
"Sure. Do you see that young woman with that blond young man?," the salesclerk said while he
looked outside of the window towards the two.
Just as the young lady was putting her bag of stuff into the vehicle, the police officers
walked up to her.
"Excuse me ma'am, but could you please explain to me what happened here?"
"Well I was just walking to my vehicle, after i finished shopping of course. Then from out of
nowhere, this man comes up to me from behind, and tried to mug me."
"Was he armed?"
"Yes, he had a knife. And he even threatened to kill me."
"It's true officer. I saw the whole thing," Quatre stated.
"Okay, can you describe this man for us?"
"Yeah, he was a tall man of muscular build. He had a black mustache and beard, brown eyes, and
fair skin. He was wearing a light blue short sleeved T-shirt, blue jeans, and white sneakers,"
the young woman stated.
"Anything else?"
"Okay. Young lady, could you please give me your name and where I could find you?"
"And you young man, do not have to give us your name. You will be placed under witness
protection," the officer stated to Quatre.
"That's okay, I'll be fine. Thank you officer."
When another officer flipped the pages to a clean one on her pad, she approched the young lady.
She pulls the young lady to the side where they could speak alone.
"Okay, what is your name?"
"My... my name is Roses, Roses Muller."
"Okay ma'am, what is your address and home phone number?"
"My address is 80 Orchid Street. And my phone number is..."
Just a few feet away from Roses and the female officer, while the other officers were talking to
Quatre, more officers arrived on the scene. In a matter of minutes, there were as many of ten
cars. There was even a small ambulance with a team of medics. One of them approched Roses and
the female officer.
"Excuse me, I'm a medic, and I would like to know if anyone was hurt."
"I'm fine, thank you ma'am," Roses said.
"Okay, then I will notify the rest of the crew that no one was hurt."
After the ambulance left, the female officer told Roses that she would call her when the suspect
is caught. Then she went to meet up with the other police officers. While the officers were
talking, Quatre goes over to Roses.
"So how did things go?"
"Just fine. The officer said that I would be notified when the suspect is caught."
"Sounds good. I wish you luck."
"Thank you, young man."
"Excuse me, but may I have a word with this young lady?," an officer asked.
"Ma'am, I'm going to ask you to come down to the station to file a report. And you, young man,
could also come with us since you were a witness."
"That's fine with me," Quatre stated.
"Would you really do that for me? Oh thank you, young man."
"Don't mention it. And please, you may call me Quatre."
"Quatre?..."
//That name sounds familiar// Roses thought as she cupped her chin with her index finger and
thumb.
"Is something the matter?"
"Oh, I'm sorry. And by the way, my name is Roses."
"It's nice to meet Roses," Quatre said as he and Roses shook hands.
"It's nice to meet you too Quatre."
"I'm sorry to interrupt your conversation, but..."
"Oh I'm sorry. Did I mention that I have a car?"
"No. But you could follow us with your vehicle to the station."
"Okay officer."
"And you young man, could hitch a ride with us in one of our vehicles."
"Okay," Quatre said.
"Okay, then let's go."
A few minutes later, all of the officers slowly left. But a few stayed behind to comb the area.
Except for that, everything was back to normal, for now that is.
