Chapter 3 - Unauthorized Calls

Anime/Manga Fanatic : Why do you torment them so? I think they're funny. Thanks for the Review...who is your mad friend and who is your kitty friend?

Zer0 Touma : Sorry, I had a slightly different plan. But I have an idea, that I just might put in the story...This story is also probably the one that...I think...I wrote the most fluff in...can you consider what I wrote fluff-mumbling to self-blink- Oops, sorry. Enjoy this chapter!

I completely made this chapters 'memories' up. I don't even think they were friends this long ago, but yea. It was something for Athrun to do and I thought it was funny.

There is something in this chapter that has to do with Rave Master, nothing big. But anyone who finds it gets a cookie!

Disclaimer : I don't own Gundam Seed, I wish I did. Or maybe not since I would create a monster out of a masterpiece...nvm. -P

Ok, Review from last chapter! Kira has locked himself away in his room...in his closet!

Kira looked at the phone he had taken from his bed. Slowly, he dialed up the number.


"Computer On." Came the voice of Athrun Zala. His computer came on.

"Password Please" It said in it's mechanical voice.

"Athrun Zala, Personal Section." He said in a monotone. This was the password to enter his computers less military-like section. The computer opened up a screen. The background was a picture of Earth as it would look at this time of year, everything looked green and happy.

Athrun sighed. "Video Recorder Up." He said, and it was brought up. "Recording 3173, Play." He said softly, whatever was on his screen played.

"Athrun! Hey Athrun! Over here!" Came a small voice. Athrun looked at the computer sadly. A small boy with brown hair was running around in a place that looked like paradise compared to Athrun's home.

"Wait for me Kira!" Called a much younger version of Athrun. When he had caught up, Kira showed him something in his hands.

"What did you boys find?" Came a female voice, Kira's mom came into the picture. When Kira showed her what was in his hands she gasped softly and backed up. Kira and Athrun laughed."Put that poor...worm...thing down Kira."

"Oh, but Mommy! It's neat. Just cause your afraid a' worms doesn't mean we are." He pouted. Athrun laughed harder than ever.

The present Athrun looked really sad, remembering this. Kira's dad had been recording it. They had all come up with a plan to scare Kira's mom. Athrun's dad had disagreed, though he didn't seem at all close to stopping them, and had sat back and watched his kid have fun. Though Athrun distinctly heard his dad laugh at Ms. Yamato's reaction. His mom had been away at the time.


Ring Ring! Click! "Hello. This is the Plant Phone system. Who is it your trying to call?" Came a very bored sounding lady.

"Uh...Hello. I'm uh...I'm trying to contact Athrun. Athrun Zala?" Kira said softly and uncertainly.

"Hold on one moment please."

"Ok..." Kira answered. He heard the strangest of hold music come on before it suddenly stopped and the lady was back.

"I'll connect you" was all she said before Kira heard the phone ringing.

He was shaking. Kira was beginning to get nervous. What if Athrun wasn't home? What if someone else picked up and asked who he was, then sent a fleet out here to kill everyone? Kira shook his head. "I'm overreacting. It'll be fine...I'm just making a phone call." Though he was still shaking. (I'm shaking Man!)


Athrun watched the recording with sadness in his eyes. He wished things hadn't changed, that Kira and him hadn't been separated. Then they would still be friends, they wouldn't be enemies in this stupid war. Then they could have played together every -

"BEEEEEEEEEP!" Athrun jumped.

"Stop." He said, his heart pounding. The recording stopped suddenly and Athrun pulled on a headset. "Hello?"

"Sir. You've got a call coming in." Came the female phone service operator's voice.

"Who from?" Athrun asked her. He sounded professional like always.

"I don't know sir. It's an unknown phone number, sir. Should I rudely disconnect them like I always do to unknown callers?"

"Huh? If you usually disconnect them anyways, why did you alert me?"

"He sounded nervous. Like he'd never done this before." She said as if she were chatting with her fellow female workers. "Didn't even call you properly. All he said was Athrun, Athrun Zala. I mean least he could 'a done was call you 'Zala, Athrun Zala' or 'Officer Athrun Zala' But nooooo he-"

"Just send it through." Athrun interrupted. Not taking in much of what she had just said.

"Alright sir." She said, sounding a bit angry that he had interrupted and got off for a moment. Then came the click that meant the phone was connected. He waited for them to greet him first. When they spoke, he was taken aback.


"Hello? Am I connected yet?"
Came the voice of Kira Yamato over the phone. If Athrun hadn't been wearing a headset, if he'd had a phone, he would've dropped it."Hello?" Kira said again.

Regaining himself, Athrun answered. "K-Kira?"

"Athrun!" Came Kira's voice. It sounded muffled, like he was covering his mouth.

"Kira? Are you alright? Why is your voice so soft? More importantly, where are you?" He sounded both pleased and baffled.

"Huh? Oh. I'm fine." Kira sounded a bit better now."I'm trying to keep quiet. This call shouldn't even be happening."

"What? Why?" Athrun sounded worried.

"'Cause. I'm aboard the Archangel at the moment." Athrun didn't answer. "I got a phone while on Earth. You see, I had this feeling that you were in trouble, well, actually Birdie had the feeling. So I picked up my phone and called. I wasn't sure if it would go through though."

"But...Kira. How'd you...I mean...I don't know what to say...I mean, how'd Birdie..." Athrun stumbled.

"Huh? Athrun? Are you alright? You aren't actually in trouble are you?" Now Kira sounded worried.

"No...no I'm fine. It's just...Before you called...I..."

"Felt you need someone to talk to?" Kira finished for him. Athrun smiled.

"Yea. I did. Hey Kira?"

"Yea Athrun?"

"Never mind." Athrun then remembered Kira saying that the call shouldn't be happening, that he was aboard the Archangel. He couldn't imagine how you hide a phone call while on the ship. "Where are you on the legged...Archangel, exactly Kira? I mean, it's got to be hard hiding a call."

"Oh." Kira laughed a bit. "I'm uh...I locked my door and went to the farthest spot from it...which incidentally happens to be in my closet."

Athrun laughed. "Kira, you're a fool." He imagined Kira scrunched up into a small closet along with his clothing. "Why would you sit in such a small area? I mean, it can't have been just that you wanted to call me, right?" No response. "Right?" Still no response. "Kira!" he said in an exasperated voice. "I'm not that important. You shouldn't go through such trouble just for me. What if you got caught?"

"Well...I'd probably be suspended from piloting and be locked in my room for a week."

"What? They'd actually do that?"

"Huh? It's not that bad. I'd get regular meals and all. It'd be like how it was for Lacus when she was here, except I wouldn't be able to leave my room." He said reassuringly.

"When Lacus..." Athrun remembered how he felt when they found that Lacus was on the Archangel, how they had held her hostage to save themselves...and then how Kira had come out to give her safely back to him. "Kira...about that time...Did you...were you ordered to give Lacus back, so as to fool us?"

For a moment Kira didn't answer, there had been a noise as if Kira couldn't believe what he was being asked."No Athrun. I wasn't" He sounded sad. Athrun was surprised. "Lacus was nice to me, to everyone. And when Flay's dad was killed in that battle...he was on one of the ships that was destroyed...she went into a fit and threatened to hurt Lacus if you guys didn't stop. I couldn't believe what she was doing."

Athrun noticed that Kira's voice had changed, he sounded a little angry, but it softenedas he spoke again."Afterwards, I was standing inside, looking outside. When Lacus came up and began talking to me. I don't think she fully realized the situation we were now all in. But...she was so nice, I had to help her. So I took her to the lockers, and gave her a suit. We had trouble getting her dress in there. I think everyone thought she was pregnant." Kira laughed.

"I got in the Strike and prepared for take-off. The captain tried to stop me, but I just told her to open the hatch, or I'd blow it off on my way out." In his mind, Athrun could see it, exactly as it had happened. Kira's face when he heard that the Archangel was using Lacus as a true hostage, Kira coming to Lacus's room with food every once in a while, Kira standing near a window, looking at the stars, Lacus coming up and talking to him and then him taking her and getting her in a space suit. Then Kira and Lacus in the Strike, preparing to leave, the hatch opening, and Kira taking off.

"Then we were outside and I asked for you to be sent out for her." Kira finished. Athrun smiled.

"We were really surprised. Thought you were going to attack us. We couldn't attack you because the Archangel had threatened to hurt Lacus. But then, you had your communication open to all signals. You called me out there, to retrieve her. I was both relieved and suspicious. But you were my friend, so I trusted you and went out. I had to convince my captain I was alright alone first though. I'm glad things turned out alright." Athrun spoke in a tone that was most unprofessional.

He could hear the smile in Kira's voice. "I'm glad...that we could talk. Even if it's not face to face." He said. Kira's voice was back to being soft and whispered. Athrun had an idea.

"Kira. A passenger ship is taking off tomorrow for a neutral colony. See if you can guide the captain into going to colony Cupriferous. If you can do that, we'll meet at the Neutral Base Cafe. Okay? It's allowed for both sides to come and go. So that we can interact with Naturals without confrontation. What do you think?" Athrun asked. Kira didn't speak for a moment.

"Of...of course!"Athrun heard a clunk, Kira said ow. So Athrun guessed he'd hit his head."I'll ask the captain as soon as I get off the phone. Athrun, that's a great idea. Strange name for a colony, but I like the idea. This'll be great. I hope Muu La Flaga feels like a vacation, he can usually persuade the captain." Kira sounded ecstatic.

"Ok then. I'll be there as soon as we dock and stay there until you arrive. If you can't go, call me back and I won't wait there. But If you can go, don't call back. Bye Kira." Click.

Athrun felt happy. He had gotten to talk with Kira, and if all went well, they'd be having lunch together tomorrow.

Kira's heart felt light as air as he quickly jumped out of his closet and headed for the door. Then, remembering how suspicious it would seem, he got on his computer, printed out some good information about Cupriferous, and then walked on air towards the deck.


Ok, Chapter 3 done. Geeze...these ten chapters are going to fly by and then I will have to make them wait since I have slight writers block...
