A/n: This chap is subjected to change, like a million times. Oh well, here comes the next chap. :crosses fingers:
Disclaimer: All characters of GW are not mine. Can we get on with this now?
Rising from the ashes
"Tell me who you are and why," the man rasps as his life blood seeps from him.
The figure paused.
"We create the world in which we live; if that world becomes unfit for human life, it is because our
leaders need changing."
The man laughed. "Relena Peacecraft will never achieve anything. She is a mere pawn in the
great chess game of politics. And no matter how good of a assassin you are, you'll never get out
alive."
The figure continues walking. "You underestimate the ones around you. Ask your wife whom is
your son's father when you met her in hell. I have only your son to thank for this after all."
To the man's astonishment, the figure walks right out the door with the guards nodding at the
exit.
The man closes his eyes and dies a man broken; one whom lived a life of lies.
"This is Anna Petra, reporting at wavelength 6050. Two years ago, Miss Relena Peacecraft was
found to be the long lost princess of the Sanc Kingdom. Following in her father's footsteps, she
adapted the philosophy known as absolute pacifism. Soon after surrendering to Oz forces
threatening her almost defenseless city, she became Queen of the World. Still even then, she
wanted all people to give up all arms. After the late General Treize Khushrenda pushed her out
of office, she proceeded to help end the war. When the war with White Fang ended, she was the
Vice Foreign Minister Darlien, regaining her original surname before she was found.
Miss Peacecraft a year ago, disappeared but now with her reentrance is full of
conversery. For now where once a girl pushing some form of pacifism, now is a ruthless woman
following the Machicavillan way. Now this sudden murder of the main opposer to Peacecraft's
new policies. Is this how the new Vice Foreign Minister is working? The police have no reason to
suspect the young Vice Foreign Minister, Miss Peacecraft has a solid alibi. Yet there are some
who will claim this is the dirty work ....."
Pagan turns the radio off, refusing to have to listen to such nonsense.
"It doesn't seem the media loves me anymore, does it?" Relena faced Pagan, the man who been
with her for most of her childhood.
"Of course not Miss Relena. It's just now that you're different and they must adjust to that
fact."
"My, my, how you flatter me. Different is the nicest I heard about me since my return. The
reporter was really almost as nice as you at describing me; other people had some other choice
words to call me, as you can imagine. "
"You have changed Miss Relena."
"Tell me Pagan, was my brother so desperate as to give my double even more cosmetic surgery
to make her look like me, to take my place? Did he need a puppet so much? Because I know my
disappearance really made no more than a ripple in these shark infested politics, why would he
go to the trouble?"
"I imagine he missed you."
The woman laughed. "Miss me, Pagan? I hardly think so. If so he wouldn't have found a
replacement so quickly."
"You think your brother just wants to use you Miss Relena? I'm sure this is not the case."
She smiled. "Now why would I think he's using me? He is my brother after all, is it not?"
"That's not what you think at all."
"Ah, Noin how nice of you to join in our private conversation."
Noin did not like what Relena had become. Sharp, bitter and sarcastic. True she was now a
woman and finally grown up, but though now she couldn't see any of the old Relena, she still
saw her as such.
"You hate your brother. I know it, you know it, everyone knows it."
"Hate is such a harsh word don't you think? After all I gave him the welcome he deserved."
Noin fumed. "That is not what your brother wanted."
"Really? Too bad. It's what I thought was most fitting."
~Flashback~
The doors of the big mansion opens and outlined in the bright sunlight was the form of Relena
with suitcases at her feet. Mililardo started toward her but stopped in the middle of the big hall.
Relena lifting her eyes to his, has started to walk toward him. She stops right in front of him.
"Relena, you're finally back. I was so worried. What has happened to your hair?"
She slaps him.
The slap rang and echoes throughout the hall.
Silence.
"Good day, brother," Relena said in a perfectly genital tone, as if she didn't just slap him or
make the word brother sound like a curse.
The girl once known as Relena Peacecraft, walks right past Mililardo and starts walking up the
staircase.
The girl, no, woman stops and turns around.
"Oh yes, I forgot, you gave my room to my double. She was essentially supposed to take my
place if the reappearance of me hadn't thrown wench in your plans. Don't worry brother, I'll make
myself home in one of the guest rooms. After all, I won't be staying long."
The end result is a house thick enough with tension that one could cut a knife through.
~Flashback ends~
"...Is this how the new Vice Foreign Minister is working?...."
Trowa turns the radio off.
"Relena has certainly changed. To the extent that she is willing to kill for her beliefs, I clearly
think that she picks that up from you. As a gundam pilot the path is clear. Do you continue to
trust her?"
Heero continues to look over his reports.
Finally the ex-gundam pilot answers.
"Yes."
A/N: Is Heero in Denial? Was the assassin really Relena? This question might seem easy to answer but it's not what it seems. Well please review.
