A Picture from the Past
Relena had taken the week off, which wasn't natural for her to do. She had been kidnapped once before, for much longer, and had to endure more pain than she did this time around. But she insisted on taking a break from her work.
The public took her vacation as a sign of too much stress. Her friends knew she could withstand it, they've seen her under more pressure than she was at now. But they really did think she should take a break, even if they weren't excepting it. So they didn't make a big deal out of it.

She sat on the ground looking at the sky. The moon was full, and the stars shined more brightly than she ever remembered. (which wasn't that long ago.)
Cat sat down next to her, and looked up to see the sky, which so many took for granted. "They're beautiful aren't they?"
"Yes, they are." she stated with her eyes still locked at the sky.
"Wouldn't it be weird if we found aliens out there.?" Cat asked waiting for an answer.
"There's so much space , it'd be ashamed if we were all that lived in it. Wouldn't it?" Cat looked surprised, "Guess you do have a point there."
Seikya looked more intensely at the stars. She closed her eyes, a word managed to escape he lips..... "Heero.." she whispered into the night, not knowing what the word meant or why she even said it. She just knew that that one word kept appearing in her mind.
"What are you two doing here?" a voice from behind them asked.
Cat turned around first, and looked at her brother in relief. "Don't scare me like that!" She got up and walked to her door, "Seikya, don't stay up too long okay. We got a big day tomorrow!" With those words she yawned and went inside to go to sleep. Seikya just sat there looking at the sky, wondering what could have possibly happened in her life that she would have amnesia. When her head started hurting she went inside and quietly feel asleep.
In the morning they had to do another show. She had become use to performing now. Even though it still scared her a little, it didn't scare her as much as it did the first time she performed. The show was over in an instant. After it a boy came from behind the curtain. He had brown, unruly hair, and Prussian blue eyes. He seemed to no everyone though. Cat seeing the confusion look on Seikya face. She hit his arm. "Um this is Seiyka, and Seikya this is Trowa's friend... Heero." Seikya stood there froze for a moment. That was the word that kept going through my head... Heero! Before they sensed something was wrong, she held out a hand, and put on a fake smile. "Hi..." she said, trying to sound normal. He took her hand, "Hello." He said in his usual emotionless voice. He then turned to Trowa, "I need to talk to you." Trowa nodded and they both left. Cat looked at her. "Don't worry, he's always like that." she smiled and went outside.
Heero told Trowa everything that happened to Relena. "By the way, that new girl, is she a spy?" Trowa looked at him, "No, I did a background check on her, and she turned out to be just a normal girl. Why do you ask?"
"I don't know, she just gave he this strange feeling, like I knew her or something." Trowa glared at him.
"That's funny I felt the same thing when I first met her. Quite coincidental... isn't it?" It sounded like a question but the way he said it, was like he was up to something.
Heero nodded "We should keep a close eye on her then." They got up and walked away.

Meanwhile, Relena was sitting on her couch, watching herself give speeches to the people on her television. Noin and Zechs thought she was kind of loosing her mind, but shrugged the thought off.
Got to go back to work in two days, must be prepared! Relena thought, watching a speech from her past.
Relena's acting weird for the past couple of days, what happened to her to make her act like that?? Lady Une was walking through the halls of the PQ (Preventers Headquarters ) If she keeps acting like this, her role as Vice Form Minister would be taking away. Thoughts of Relena behavior and of how many wars would be popping up because of her actions. She knew something was wrong about her and of her attitude around of her friends and Heero.
Sally snuck up behind her and her could tell by her face that something was wrong. "What's happened?" She asked in earnest, wanting to know if another war was about to start. "Nothing happened, I'm just paranoid, that's all." came her response. Sally did looked relieved though.
Lady Une's cell phone rang, it was Mayemaiya. "Lady Une, I'm going to stay at my Duo and Hilde's house tonight. They're funny! (She couldn't finish what she was going to say because Duo took the phone away from her) She'll be fine... let her stay here.... Mommy Une! (he chuckled at that, but the laugh didn't last long because at that moment Hilde took the phone from him.) Don't worry we'll make sure she's home tomorrow, okay?"
Une smiled "Okay, make sure she doesn't get into to much mischief and make sure she doesn't start another war, bye." She smiled at the last comment, and realized that Relena couldn't loose her position, she was the one responsible for the peace in the first place. Une felt reassured about the future and Relena and she told herself she needed a vacation soon.

Seikya had a strange feeling that someone was watching her. Sometimes Trowa's friend... Heero, would give her a glare that sent shivers up and down her spine. Cat seemed like the only one that was actually normal.
Heero was still following her every where she went. Of course she didn't know he was following her. He knew there was something about her that seemed awfully familiar.
Seikya walked on the grass and looked up at the stars, something about them always seemed to capture her attention. Then she suddenly felt like blurting out that name, the name that always seemed to be in her mind... "Heero." It escaped her lips yet again, and she was shocked that she even said it.
Heero looked at her, there was something familiar about the way she said his name, he had no clue of why she said his name, but he knew he was going to keep a closer eye on her from that point on.
