CHAPTER I

BULLET HOLE

Heero walked along the fields of L1, which were covered in artificial snow to give the colony a holiday spirit. He never liked the fake snow, which was extremely fake. But it was all he knew, since he hadn't been on earth before Operation Meteor. So he kept walking and walking and walking past the fields until he got to Rockefeller harbor, a fake seaport in the colony.

"Why am I walking?" thought Heero. "Why am I even here? I should be on Earth with Relina and the others. We just got done with another battle. I should be there by her side". He then kicked the fence that separated the field from the harbor. An old lady then walked up to him and put a hand on his shoulder.

"What's the matter, boy?" asked the lady. "Girl troubles?"

"JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!" yelled Heero. Then, several thoughts stirred through his mind that he never thought of before. Thoughts such as "Why was I ever born?", "Why did I do that?" and "What if I left this Earth forever?" He then reached into his pocket and found a gun that he left in his pocket during the war. He just stared at it and thought "If I used this against me, would my troubles die or begin?" He then put the gun to his head and decided he'd take all the troubles in life away.
