Perfect No More
Chapter 4: Awakening
Days passed by slowly, and soon it was already After Colony 197. The war was finally over. However, Katrina and Alex were getting more and more worried about the girl's condition. She had not yet awakened and there was no change in body temperature or brain waves.
The two doctors had done everything they could, countless numbers of times, in searching the registration computer systems. They were hoping to find even the slightest bit of connection to their mysterious young patient; hair, eyes, and/or build anything that they could trace, but every time they found nothing.
Little Nicole, waited patiently by the mysterious girl's bedside for as long as she could each day. She didn't want to see anyone die. When pictures of the war were seen on the television, Nicole always broke down into tears, with the fear that her heart would shatter if she saw even one person get blown up. Her mother had once told her that she was just like her uncle, Quatre Winner. Nicole had never seen her uncle, for he was always traveling between Earth and the colonies.
As the little 9-year-old began to drift off into a light dream world, her sky blue eyes noticed something happening to the other girl. Upon moving closer, to where their faces were almost touches, Nicole saw that the body was shaking all over. She had this strange feeling at that moment she knew the girl was struggling to try and wake up. Almost like she was fighting herself inside her own mind. Nicole gripped the pale hand, tightly in her own little hands, not wanting to leave the girl's side, silently cheering her on.

A young girl with long braided light braided hair that reached just below her hips stood silently in the middle of a large blank area, nothing was around her, however, crimson eyes glowed just as fresh blood flows from an opened wound. They scanned the area, knowing that someone was there with her. Quickly turning, her expression dropped into an emotionless glare, as crimson orbs met the black depths of Michael.
"What are you doing here?" Leah growled, never dropping her gaze.
"I have come for you, you don't belong here in this world of life and love." Michael smirked, slyly.
Leah flinched slightly at his last words, but still held her own, "How do you know what's good for me?!"
"I am the one who raised you from nothing! I made you into what you are!" He began to shout and reached out and gripped his hand to the girl's arm.
Shocked and angry, Leah roughly pulled herself away from his grasp, "You don't anything about me!"
"You insolent disobedient little—" he shouted as he tried to grab at her again, only with each time she jumped back farther away from him. Then the man jumped and got face to face with the girl and took a strong punch at her. However, he missed as Leah ducked down and somersaulted forward. She stopped and found herself kneeling at Michael's black feet.
At that moment, something caught Leah's red eyes. It was her heavy gundanium metal sword. There it was lying in the space between Michael's black pant legs. Instinct kicking in, Leah's pale fingers clenched the bluish/silver handle, and thrust it upward and in one quick swipe, before another move was made, the sword cut across him deep into his waist. This made him stubble back, hands wrapped around his waist, and yelled out in unbearable pain.
However, the sound of pain was short-lived. Michael gave a dark sly grin, and started to laugh softly.
"You can't escape your fate, warrior."
As he spoke, black darkness began to pour from his wound and radiated from his body. Red eyes widened in fear as Leah jumped to her feet and started running from the approaching darkness, which had started to grow and chase after her, keeping very close with her stride.
Leah continued to run from the fast-approaching blackness, but she could still hear Michael's voice echoed behind her.
".........can't escape.........your fate........."
"You.........are a.........warrior."
"NO!" Leah screamed, trying to run faster and farther away from the voice.
Just then, she looked ahead of her and through blurred red orbs, there in the mist of light, the five gundam pilots stood waiting for her, with their hands outstretched.
Michael's voice continued, ".........can't escape.........you are alone.........warrior!"
At that name, Leah took a burst of speed towards the boys, but no matter how fast she ran, she could not touch their outstretched fingers. She tried to run faster, unfortunately, the darkness had caught up to her and her foot slipped into the endless blackness. Leah felt as if she was falling down a hole of everlasting darkness. The girl tried to scream, but couldn't find her voice.
Suddenly, her fall stopped, leaving her hanging in mid-air. Ruby eyes looked up and found she was staring into bright emerald orbs. She could hear the boy calling out to her, but couldn't find her voice to answer him.
"Hold on Leah! I'll help you! Just don't let go of me!"
Even though, the girl couldn't respond, she gripped his long gentle fingers tightly. She wanted to hold on forever.
However, the feeling was short-lived, she felt a tugging at her feet, as she was being pulled out of the auburn-haired boy's grasp, who only tightened his grip. Soon another hand grasped hers, bright red eyes looked to see unruly brown hair and a glare of prussian blue eyes appear next to the other figure, both with worried yet stern expressions.
Eventually the pull of darkness became too great and the figures lost their grasp on the girl. She fell through the hole of darkness and was unable to see the two figures, whom had disappeared in the bright light above her. Faster and faster she fell, she could feel her long strands of hair begin to unravel from their braid. All the while, words kept echoing in her mind.
"warrior........."
".........alone........."
"I will find you............sister......"
".........Aishiteru......"
Louder and louder the voices got, until the girl couldn't bear it anymore, and she fell unconscious with exhaustion. Suddenly, everything went silent.
~ * ~ * ~
Nicole still stood over the girl's body, which had stopped shaking and now lay still, with a pale hand still clenched between her small fingers. Just then, her sky blue eyes widened as she leaned further over the bed to see deep red eyes slowly flutter open beneath loose strands of light blonde hair, which fanned down her body and over her shoulders.
"Hi." Nicole said timidly, "How are you feeling?"
The older girl slowly began to sit up. Feeling the small grasp in her hand, deep red orbs turned to meet the little girl's blue ones. Confused, the girl found a quiet voice, barely above a whisper.
"Who am I?"
TBC
WOW! And to think I just thought this up with one dream I had. You know this was supposed to be a one shot of Leah and Trowa meeting again, finding each other and living happily ever after, but you know I just couldn't find the inspiration to write something that simple.
Anyway, presently it is about a year before the pilots meet again at Quatre's for a reunion. But hopefully, I won't take all my time explaining what happens to my girl, is it Leah or not? Only I know *heeheehee* The other pilots will come in about by chapter............7 or 8, depends what I want to put in for this girl.
See ye soon!
