Next Chapter! And a much needed type of P.O.V!
~~~~~Zechs P.O.V~~~~~
Why?
Why did she have to go and betray WF.?
And me?
What possessed her to do such a thing?
Was there something I was missing here?
I had been confronted about the loops earlier, and noticed each happened at Sarah's scheduled enter time.
I knew something was wrong then.. But I didn't actually think she would go through with it.
But she did.
Due to WF demands, I had to comply and send her to jail. If I just broke down and kept her from everything, then things could go terribly wrong.
I confronted her earlier when she had came back..
"Why?"
She hadn't answered.
I didn't know what to do.
As they took her off to jail, I kept cursing myself for being such a damn fool. Something was wrong. Something was hurting her.
The boy!
Of course!
That had to be it..
That gundam pilot.. Duo Maxwell.
He's what's causing my daughter so much pain.
He's why she's being torn in two..Why she's helping me but helping them.
Fuck.
What do I do?
I'm not used to this sort of thing.
It was night time by the time I arrived to where they were keeping her. With a few cautions from the guard, they allowed me to see her.
Sarah was concealed in a small, pure metal structure without a window or a door except for a sliding panel we got through.
The only thing in the room was a tiny bathroom and a cot.
She was sitting in the corner when I emerged into the room and flicked on the light.
Immediately her eyes shot up, "Hello...Ummmm.. Zechs."
I walked over slowly and kneeled, wrapping my arms about her and holding her close, "I don't care anymore. Let everyone know. You're my daughter and I love you. You shouldn't be kept a secret."
She froze, "But..You're not.?"
"Of course I'm angry. But I'm confused. I want to help you. I can see you hurt."
She bowed her head and I could feel her shaking, "Father. I know your purpose is to kill the gundam pilots. I understand that and I will stick by you and only you. What I did was a favor to one whom had taken care of me for some time.."
"Someone you love?"
She whipped her head to look at me, eyes widening slightly with a glint of fear.
"Yes. The pilot of Deathscythe. You love him no?"
Reluctantly, she nodded.
"That's why. You're torn between battlefields. Both sides with someone you love. Sarah listen to me. I love you. I always will. It's only been two years.. But you're the best daughter anyone could ever ask for. All I want to do is protect you. But I can't stand in the way of how you feel."
I slowly leaned back, "I will leave you to decided on your own. Them or us. And make your decision wise, for once its done, you'll never return."
I stood slowly, wondering why I was doing all this, letting my gaze lock with her own, "I'll be getting you out of here soon. It'll be easy, but not to my liking, to blame it on manipulation because of your insanity."
She winced at that, "Ok."
"I'll get on it right away. For now, they'll take good care of you." I actually managing a weak smile, just to try and give her a bit of confidence. She didn't know this was harder for me than most likely for her.
Turning around I left the room, nodding to the guard outside the door. Walking down the hall, I immediately walked into the nearest room and just used their computer. No one was there anyway. I wrote a short letter,
(Council of WF,
In the recent matter of Sarah Greenwich, the one who helped the gundam pilot prisoner escape, I suggest we have a meeting to discuss her punishment. However, there is an issue of her current state of mind. She is not totally sane due to the job she is submitted to. Bring all questions, possibilities and statements in two hours to the council room. Be on time.
Lieutenant Zechs)
I withdrew, clicking send on my way and turned, heading out. Now all I needed was to prepare my documents and get ready to defend my daughters life..
Meeting time came swiftly, but I was entirely ready and calm. I would win this no problem, but I would have to rely on how gullible these men could be.
"Meeting regarding Sarah Greenwich will come to order. Please be seated. Who wishes to speak first?" I mumbled, watching everyone walk across the room. They were seated at once.
Turns out, Captain Naduso was to talk first. Head of WF's security and law. I groaned inwardly as he began speaking.
"This girl was in direct violation of WF protocol! She went out of the way to constantly keep the gundam pilots information from us and then help him escape. That is treason and penalty should be considered for death!"
Officer Drumie(excuse the poor names:P) was next, "You must consider her stress levels and note of insanity. The girl has a history of mental illness and so forth. In being in such a vulnerable position, she could have been taken advantage of."
"That's definitely a possibility."
As the meeting progressed, I just sat back and listened, occasionally speaking when things got out of hand. When they had pretty much come to a decision, I spoke up, "What do you wish to do with her now then?"
Officer Drumie was to speak, "We think the female should be kept under complete surveillance, during anytime of the day. She should have her quarters sealed off and guarded, and constantly watched. Meanwhile, she may continue her job and wander in peace. One more slip up, and punishment will not be relieved."
I nodded, "Sounds fair. Alright. Dismissed."
They filed out and I leaned back, sitting there.
She was free for the moment. But what would she decide?
I needed her here. I needed her. I had no one left but her. And though this might sounds pathetically selfish and ignorant, I needed her to pilot Sacrimyst. Despite the fact that most was under control, that gundam was under something far worse than the system Epyon had. And yet, Sarah was able to just barely control it.
Of course that was during her very first tries. If she was to practice, she could master the system, and wield Sacrimyst as a such deadly weapon.
Standing slowly, I left to go release my daughter, and to await her decision.
