"Captain! The Eternal has successfully made its way to us. They are now boarding into the Archangel."
"That's good. Kira I think we have to get going to meet with them. But, what about Cagalli? Don't you think that we should tell her?" asked Captain Ramius.
"Nah, I think it's best not to tell her. It be better if we let Asuran do the talking first. Besides, she's too busy right now dealing with the Orb crew. I think this would be a surprise for her from her older brother," smiled Kira.
"Don't you mean little brother?" asked Captain Ramius with a little smile.
"Nope! I'm the oldest! She knows it and just won't admit it! Hahaha! Just don't tell her that I said that," laughed Kira.
"Hahaha, no problem, said Captain Ramius. I think we should get goin don't you think?"
"Yeah, lets go. I'm afraid that Asuran will go nuts," said Kira with a slight laughter in his voice.
Meanwhile, somewhere in the Archangel……Lacus, Asuran, and Captain Walfeld walked into a room. There in the room waited Kira and Captain Ramius.
"Hello Lacus, Captain Walfeld, and Asuran. You didn't have any trouble boarding our ship I believe." said Captain Ramius.
"Nope, it was a breeze," said Captain Walfeld.
"Hello Lacus, Captain Walfeld…Asuran," said Kira with a smile..
"Hello Kira! I missed you!" said Lacus in her cheery voice as she ran into Kira's arms for a hug.
"Ki…Kira. You're alive," said Asuran in a very low and sad tone with teary eyes.
"Yes I am very much alive Asuran. How have you've been? We've all been worried about you," said Kira.
"I'm fine I guess, but emotionally I'm not. I thought you were dead, said Asuran as he walked up to Kira.
"Asuran… I'm okay. If Cagalli hadn't come out with her Strike Rouge, I would've been long dead," said Kira.
"It's all my fault! If I wasn't so stupid to believe them, none of this would've happened. I didn't believe you that Lacus was being assassinated by the ZAFT Special Forces, I didn't believe you that the Chairman was up to something, I blamed you guys for making the situation worse and worst of all… I LEFT CAGALLI AND MADE HER CRY!" cried Asuran.
"Asuran," said Lacus.
"It's okay Asuran, nothing is your fault. Cagalli is fine. She's around somewhere doing some thinking like you always do," said Kira with a smirk.
Asuran tilted his head up with an expression of WHAT!
"That's right, thinking. Just like you," said Kira with a rare big smile. She's been through a lot since…well…you know. I never thought that she would easily cry, with her temper and all. I thought I was the crybaby but I guess I was wrong…and she said that she was the oldest. I'm the oldest and she just won't admit it, said Kira in a jokey tone.
Asuran couldn't believe what he was hearing. Here he is crying his ass off with frustration and guilt. And here is Kira, ALIVE and talking like nothing happened about him being almost killed by that stuck up, snobby, and anger attitude problem Shinn.
Asuran just stood there looking at his best friend with a confused look. Thinking that the explosion of the Freedom really got to his head. Kira is not even giving him any crap for making his sister cry and blaming her. There he was just standing there with a big smile.
"Kira…aren't you suppose to be angry with me for all the things I've done to you guys, especially to Cagalli."
"Am I supposed to be? … Asuran, you're my best friend and I've known you since we were kids. You and I never really got mad at each other for anything. Even if I do get angry with you, what would that accomplish? It won't change anything that already happened. Right? Yeah, sure you say that you hurt Cagalli, but you're still our friend and Cagalli would still forgive you no matter what you do. Sure she'll throw a tantrum but in about two seconds she'll have a smile and already have forgiven."
"I'm not so sure about that this time," said Asuran turning away his head with a sad look and tears still in his eyes.
"Asuran, go find Cagalli and tell her everything. I think she really needs you right now," said Lacus in her sweet serenity voice.
Kira walked up to Asuran and gave him a pat on the back. Asuran turned his head to look at him and saw Kira's gentle side again instead of the weird one.
"Go find her and set things right. I'm sure she really wants to see you. Tell her everything first and then maybe later you can tell us about what the Chairman is doing and about the Lacus impostor. Don't do anything that you'll regret. Or else I'll kill you."
Whoa! Was the first thing that popped into Asuran's mind. First Kira was talking very comfortably and then suddenly he said that he's going to kill him. Even his expression changed from very calm and happy into serious and threatening. He never thought that Kira could switch emotions really quickly. Since the death of Fllay and all.
"But Kira, what if I…" before Asuran could finish, Kira suddenly yelled….
"Oh for everyone's sake!" yelled Kira. And in a split second, Kira grabbed Asuran and dragged him to the door. "Do us all a favor and find Cagalli and make up with her! Geez! I can't stand seeing you or my little sister like this! With that Kira kicked Asuran out the door and said one last thing before he slammed the door.
" YOU'RE NOT COMING BACK TO SEE ANY OF US UNTIL YOU AND CAGALLI MAKE UP! GOT IT!"
After what Kira said, he slammed the door and Asuran was on the floor about to get up when…
"Oh! and one more thing… (Asuran's civilian clothes was thrown at his face) Change your clothes. I don't think Cagalli wants to see you in a ZAFT uniform." With that, Kira slammed the door and Asuran was left on the floor with his clothes.
"How did Kira get my clothes? Ehh! I don't wanna know."
With that, Asuran went to the nearest room and changed to his civilian clothes and went on a hunt for his one and only.
"Kira, don't you think that was a little….well…rough? He did just come back and was very emotional," said Lacus.
"I agree with her. I think you went a little rough. I mean like you know he's emotional," said Captain Ramius.
"Yeah I think I went a little out of my league there. But come on guys!"
"I think you hung around with Cagalli way too much," smirked Captain Walfeld.
"Yeah, I know."
With that, everybody laughed and went to the cafeteria while Asuran is out looking for Cagalli.
