Chapter 5 - Go save her!
Ms Kenzy sat in her chair at the desk with a huge grin plastered across her face. She didn't care that she looked awkward but Heero was coming back to class and she couldn't wait to surprise the students. Heero has spent a whole day at the church talking and arguing with the priest, and when he came out she could see the change within him. Quickly she checked over the role. Duo Maxwell, and Relena peacecraft were away. She wondered why Relena wasn't in class. Duo was still recovering though she didn't get much information on him.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door and Ms Kenzy almost jumped up making the girls in the front shriek and fall silent. Ms Kenzy suddenly wished she hadn't locked the door. What if it wasn't Heero? She slowly opened the door and peered in. She sighed in relief and let Heero in.
Quatre looked at him and suddenly gasped. He couldn't feel and pain or agony coming from him at all. Heero's face was emotionless but calm.
Around Heero's neck was a chain with a small golden cross tied on it. What on earth happened? Heerp limped to his table and steadily sat down.
"Class, let us begin our lesson," said the teacher happily.
Relena gazed around her room. It was so horrible to spill blood on but she knew she wouldn't be able to take it any longer. Where would be the best place to kill herself and how? She quickly locked her door and closed the blinds making the room much darker. She could stab herself but she could miss. The best way was probably going to be to shoot herself. She slowly walked to her wardrobe and and opened a drawer. A shiny black gun was lying at the top of her pile of clothes. She took it and closed the drawer walking back into the room. This was it. She was finally going to get rid of her pain.
The bell rang and Heero stood up to get to lunch. He looked over to Relena's desk and there was no one there.
"Heero? What happened to you? Why do you have a cross on your neck?" asked Quatre suddenly appearing behind him.
Heero spun around to look at the boy who had empath abilities. The boy was thin and his bones were showing through his skin. He had bags under his light blue eyes.
"My soul has been taimed," answered Heero walking towards the desk.
He barely knew what happened yesterday either. He had arrived at church to tell the priest he had completed his mission and then they went into an argument over his life. He had spent the whole day there and Heero finally realised it was still ok to live after the war and that what he felt was just like every soldier from the battle field. What he felt was just stronger than usual.
Heero reached Relena's desk. He saw some small writing carved in with a pen. Heero looked carefully at it. "Two more days". Heero thought about what it meant and suddenly realised. He turned bumping into Ms Kenzy who seemed to have appeared behind him.
"Why am I always bumping into you?" asked Heero angrily.
"I'm there whenever you want to run. I block you from running. Heero, you know exactly what those words mean! Heero, its time you stopped running away from her. Its time you ran to her. Heero, save her and her soul! Go!" said Ms Kenzy clearing the way.
Heero looked at her to see her honest face. She was right. It was time he stopped running. He raced out the room leaving the rest of the roof baffaled.
Relena walked around the room. Where would she be able to commit suicide? Finally she found a corner and aimed her gun at her heart. No, that would do. She raised her gun towards her temples and sighed. Suddenly someone pulled the handle of the door. Relena stared at it as the person started knocking hard on the door.
"Relena! Open the door!" screamed a farmiliar voice.
"Heero?" whispered Relena pulling off the safety and putting her finger to the trigger.
Suddenly there was a loud crash as the door broke open and Heero rushed into the room to see Relena aiming a gun at herself. Tears were pouring down her eyes as Heero looked at her questioningly with a little despair in his voice.
"Heero, I cannot take it any longer. Please don't blame me!" said Relena.
"No Relena. That is not the only answer. You can get rid of this depression. Just please put the gun down," said Heero calmly as he drew closer to her.
Relena gasped in shock. What was wrong with Heero? Why was he telling her she could get rid of this depression?
"Relena, please, put the gun down and we can talk over this," pleaded Heero showing desperation in his voice.
Relena's arm started shaking and she started shaking her head. She didn't want to talk. She just didn't want to live anymore. How could he not understand that?
"I'm sorry Heero," whispered Relena.
Everything froze suddenly as the trigger pulled and the bullet shot out. Heero leapt forward as fast as he could, closing his eyes, not wanting to see what happened.
Heero fell ontop of Relena and quickly jumped off looking at her. She was still clinging onto the gun but her whole body was shaking. She slowly opened one eyes and looked around. Heero sighed in relief and quickly peeled her hand off the gun. He looked at the gun and put it down on the floor stepping on it with all his might. His muscles tightened and when he heard a click he was satisified as he threw the broken the gun into the bin. Relena crawled up and stood up shakily.
"Oh, Heero" she sighed.
Suddenly she threw her arms around him and hugged him tightly as if she never wanted to let go of him.
"Heero, please, never leave me again," she whispered as some more tears dropped down her cheeks soaking Heero's shirt. He didn't answer, but him being there was enough for Relena to show her first real smile in a while.
"Miss, I would like to continue my answer on what war is. I feel I had never completed it," said Relena.
Ms Kenzy nodded in approval though she felt like crying in happiness today.
"After wars, soldiers will never be at peace. if someone doesn't help them. The soldiers don't suffer as much in war as after but, anyone can achieve to be happy again with just a little help. All they need is a light of hope to calm their souls and I believe, one day, the world will be at peace, true peace," said Relena sitting down.
"That was a very nice speech babe," said someone from the door.
Relena turned to see Duo walking through the door with crutches. A smile spread across her face and she turned to look at Heero. She was sure she saw a little smile appearing on Heero's face too.
