A Song for You

Whoa!! Looks like my story was a success!! I thank you all for supporting me!!! Wish that the KxL fans like this story!!

The next day at Archangel, Kira and Cagalli went to the town whereby a lot of stalls were selling various stuff. After a few hours of buying, Cagalli have finished buying her stuff, while Kira was carrying tons of it for her.

Cagalli: Kira, are you hungry?

Kira: A bit...but I'm quite tired.

Cagalli: Let's go to that stall. I like the food down there.

Both of them went to the stall or rather a small café, Kira settle down on one of the table while Cagalli order their food. After 5 minutes, the food arrived. It was a dish which Kira never seen it before, it was a yellow oval-shape, with ingredients inside it.(I not very sure how to describe it but it look like those rolls with eggs, chicken and vegetables inside.) Kira stare at his food while Cagalli was adding chill sauce on hers.

Cagalli: What's wrong? Don't you wanna eat?

Kira: No, it's just that...I've never eaten this kind of stuff.

Cagalli: What?! Such a good stuff and you never taste it before?! Alright, this dish you must add chill sauce to make it nice to eat, come, I'll add it for you.

Somebody: You're wrong, young lady. Adding yogurt sauce to it is tastier.

Kira and Cagalli turn around and saw a middle-age guy, dressed like he was in Hawaii with a sunglass.

Guy: Hi! My name is Andrew Bartfeldt.

Song 7: Tiger of the Desert

Cagalli: Who cares about your name! You butch into other people's conversation, that is very rude of you!! Hey, wait a minute, you said your name is Andrew Bartfeldt? The Tiger of the Desert?

Bartfeldt: Correct, that's me.

Cagalli: What do you want?

Bartfeldt: Calm down, young lady. I was just giving you two an advice. Putting yogurt sauce was much better than chill sauce.

The guy pick up the yogurt sauce and start to pour it on the dish. Cagalli couldn't stand it anymore, she stood up which startled Kira and Bartfeldt.

Cagalli: I had it enough with you!! I say add chill sauce to it is more better!!!

She then grabbed the chill sauce and pour it on the dish. Both of them was quarrelling with each other while they keep on pouring the sauce on the food. Kira sweat dropped when he saw the food covered with red and white sauce, he even feel like puking. But suddenly, 3 to 4 guys dash towards them and attack them with knifes and guns. Bartfeldt flipped the table, and all the sauce was splash onto Cagalli, he used the table as a shield. 3 more guys appeared but they help Kira and the others to take them down. Kira, seeing that one of the guys was about to stab Bartfeldt with a knife, he kick one of the sauce bottle, which hit the knife of the guy's hand. Before he can react, Kira dash towards him and land a kick at his face.

Kira: Who are these people?

Bartfeldt: They were been called "Blue Cosmos". They were the naturals who hated the coordinators.

Cagalli: Hey, we were dragged into this stupid thing because of you!!

Kira: Cagalli...

Bartfeldt: Alright, as for my apologies, why don't the both of you come over to my place?

Cagalli: Why should we?!

Bartfeldt: Don't tell me you going to go back like this, young lady.

Cagalli almost forgot that she was covered up with the chill and yogurt sauce, she look towards Kira and received a nod as the meaning to go with Bartfeldt.

Cagalli: Alright, we will come with but only for a wash up!

As they reached Bartfeldt's place, it was a huge mansion with some of the military force surrounding it. They went into the mansion and a woman, dressed in blue with long black hair and a few of it in front was orange and yellow, welcome them.

Bartfeldt: Aisha, do me a favor to clean up this young lady here.

Aisha: Alright, please come with me.

Aisha and Cagalli walk off and Bartfeldt bring Kira to his study room. He brings out some coffee and they settle down on the sofa.

Bartfeldt: What's your name, young boy?

Kira: Kira. Kira Yamato desu.

Bartfeldt: You like to drink coffee, I make some myself, it's really nice but no one appreciates it, accept Aisha.

Kira drank the coffee; his eyes widen as he had not drank such a nice coffee before.

Kira: It's very delicious.

Bartfeldt: Really? You think so too? HA! I should have known it, do you still want some? I got some packet of the coffee powder I made.

Kira: No thanks...

Bartfeldt: Actually, I've been wanted to have a talk with you. You're a coordinator, right? And you're also the pilot of the EARTH Alliance new model Mobile Suit.

Kira: How did you know about that?!

Bartfeldt: Don't need to be so surprised. It's very easy to see that.

Kira: ......

Bartfeldt: I know all the people living in this town, I can easily see that you not the one from here. The people who were wondering around here is nether than the EARTH Alliance.

Kira: !!

Bartfeldt: And of course, at the previous battle, you modified your MS in just a few second to suit the desert environment. No normal human beings could do that unless you're a coordinator, just now smooth kick also shows that.

Kira stood up, as he afraid that Bartfeldt will attack him anytime.

Bartfeldt: Relax, I don't plan to fight you here.

The door suddenly opened and a girl walk in, she was dressed in light green long dress which covers until her chest level. She wear some golden bracelet around her neck and wrists, and her blonde hair were tied up in a small high ponytail. Kira was blushing, but later on he realized that it was Cagalli. Cagalli look down at the floor, feeling too embarrassed to look up at Kira.

Kira: Cagalli...you are a girl?

Cagalli: WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT?!!

Kira: No...No it's just that... I...er...

Cagalli: YOU WHAT?!

Bartfeldt and Aisha: Hahahahahahahaha!!!!

Both Kira and Cagalli look down on the floor, blushing hard until Bartfeldt and Aisha stop laughing. Bartfeldt look towards Cagalli and smiled.

Bartfeldt: You look just like a princess of some country.

Cagalli: !?

Bartfeldt: Relax, I just trying to describe your beauty.

Cagalli: Q..Quit your stupid jokes.

Kira: Cagalli...?

Bartfeldt: Oh, yes. What did the both of you think about how to end this war?

Kira: Huh?!

Cagalli: What are you trying to say?!

Suddenly, Bartfeldt draws out a gun from his pocket and point at them. Kira shield Cagalli with his body.

Bartfeldt: Will it really end if we destroyed all our enemies? As a general myself, I was supposed to destroy all the enemies before me!

Kira/Cagalli: !!

Bartfelt: But I can stand it without thinking about it, wasn't there any more choices for us to end this war?

He slowly lowered his gun and put it back in his pocket.

Bartfeldt: Go back now. My life was saved by you this afternoon.

Kira/Cagalli: Huh?!

Bartfeldt: I'll ask my soldier to send you half way down the road. Young boy, next time if we meet at the battle field, it won't end like this so easily.

Kira: Hm.

Both of them walk out of the room and Aisha came in.

Aisha: Andrew, are you sure about this?

Bartfeldt: That boy's eyes look serious.

Aisha: He's a very dangerous character. If you let him go this time, you won't know what trouble he will bring next time.

Bartfeldt: Sigh... Such a stressful era.

Aisha: I just can't believe you let him go so easily, you're such a weirdo.

Under the mansion, Kira and Cagalli were walking towards the jeep which was going to pick them up. (Cagalli has changed back to her own clothes) Kira glance back at the mansion.

Kira: He is our enemy...

After returning back to Archangel, it was about 7.30pm. Kira was sitting in his room, thinking back what Bartfeldt had told him. Tori was resting on his shoulder turning its head towards Kira.

Kira: "How to end this war? I wish I know how to, everyone want to know. Everyone wants peace, to live with their family, to live with their love ones..."

He hold up the sliver ring with his index and last fingers.

Kira: "Lacus, I miss you a lot. Why are you not with me when I need you? Lacus..."

Suddenly there's a red alert, Kira quickly got up and dashed towards his STRIKE.

Ramius: Everyone!! Prepare for battle!!

Miriallia: Kira! You ready?

Kira: Hai. STRIKE, KIRA YAMATO, LAUNCH!!!

When Kira came out with his STRIKE, he was surprised that this time there is only the orange Bacue waiting for him and no others.

Kira: Bartfeldt-san?

Bartfeldt: I told you before that we will fight each other some day. So, COME ON NOW!!!

The Bacue dashed in a speed of lighting and slashed STRIKE at the arm.

Kira: AAHHHH!!!!

Bartfeldt: What's wrong? Aren't you a Berserker?!

Kira glared at him, at the same time his SEED was activated again. He took out his sword and manages to hit one of the Bacue's legs. The Bacue landed unsuccessfully as one of its leg is gone.

Bartfeldt: Aisha, aim his leg.

Aisha: Hai!

Aisha aimed a canon at STRIKE's leg but Kira jump up and take out his gun to shoot at the Bacue. But it dodged the attack too. Kira pant hard as his dull violet eyes, same as Lacus when she activated her SEED mode, stare and observing his enemy's move.

Kira: Bartfeldt-san, stop this!! Why must we kill each other?! Can't we end off without fighting or killing one another?!

Bartfeldt: You're too optimistic! This is a WAR!! It's not that you want it to end, it could just end!! You and I are enemies; it's our destiny to fight with one another!!!

Said finished, he jump straight at him, deciding to give Kira a final blow. Kira, grab his blade, and cried out loud as he slashed the Bacue into half. The Bacue landed a few distance behind him. Before the engine explodes, Bartfeldt and Aisha take off their safety belt and turn towards each other quickly.

Aisha: Andrew!!!

Bartfeldt: Aisha!!!

As the couple hugged each other, the engines burst into a huge explosion. STRIKE dropped his sword, and fell to his knees. Kira cry as he shouts loud to the sky.

Kira: I DID NOT WANTED TO KILL THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At the Clyne mansion, Lacus jerks up as she realized that she had fallen asleep sitting at the benches after Athrun left. She place her hand on her chest and thought that she just heard Kira screaming. He was crying in pain, Lacus rubs her tummy and look at the dark blue sky.

Lacus: Kira...
