Chapter 2 Search for the Angel
Flashback
"Athrun! How do you think a whole country would be convinced and reassured by an 18 year old ruler?" Cagalli's voice grew louder "That's why a political marriage had to be arranged!" she continued "Why can't you understand that?"
Athrun had a confused look, he knew this so called talk wasn't going anywhere so he had to let her go for now. He slowly loosened his grip and he watched as Cagalli Yula Attha run away.
End
Back at Archangel, Cagalli locked herself up in her room, crying her heart out saying between sobs things she gone through when he returned to Zaft "You jerk" she whispered.
Athrun's POV
As I board Minerva, the scent reminds me that Cagalli and I were enemies once again. I entered my room and went directly to the small table where my black laptop lay. I opened it, and went to check on the location of Archangel. I was unsure where it was but I was definite it started moving north of this city. I sighed I long to see Cagalli smile at me again.
End
After some time of thinking Athrun decided to talk to the Captian of Minerva about looking for Archangel. Talia Gladys sighed and allowed Athrun "If you've done your business we'll be in Suez" she told him and he saluted and and left the bridge.
"Athrun Zala, Savior launching!"
Savior flew across the Indian Ocean wishing that Archangel hasn't gone too far away.
"Where the heck are they?" the blue haired coordinator asked himself as he scanned the area.
Underwater, where the Archangel was safely hidden the radar beeped "Captain!" one of the crewmen called "Zaft unit approaching... Savior!".
"Athrun?" Kira asked himself
"What does he want?" Captain Ramius asked and turned to the ultimate coordinator "I'm not sure" Kira answered looking at the red unit on the screen. Then Cagalli enter the bridge and studied the red Zaft unit on the screen "Is that Athrun?" she asked and Milly nodded.
"Archangel... come in.." Athrun called from Savior but a bit unclear because of the static. "What do you want?" Cagalli asked. He didn't answer for a while "I want to talk" he finally answered. Everyone looked at Cagalli "I'll go meet him" she said then turned to Kira who nodded, he did know how to respect his sisters choices.
"Cagalli Yula Attha, Strike Rouge launching!"
Then Strike Rouge came out of the water startling Athrun.
"You wanted to talk to me?" she asked and Athrun's image was projected in the mobile suit's screen. "What do you want to talk about?" Cagalli asked again.
"I want to settle something..." Athrun answered
"Settle something?" Cagalli asked doubtfully, he nodded. Then Cagalli spotted an inhabited little island
"Okay then, lets talk in that island" she said and flew toward the island and savoir followed.
When they reached the island, they both went down their mobile suits both wearing civilian clothes.
When Cagalli saw him how she wanted to embrace him and cry. She bit her lips to restrain little tears to come "I'll be reasonable" she told herself. Athrun walked towards her and stopped a few feet away. "There are so many things I want to tell him" Cagalli thought, observing Athrun who sighed inward, he didn't know how to start the conversation.
"Something I need to know?" Cagalli asked. "Tell me what I dont understand" Athrun answered
"Uh?... well..." Cagalli started "Athrun... I know everything I did was against ideals but Orb wanted it! Specially the marriage..." she explained the last few words getting softer.
"I understand that" Athrun smiled "Then why were you so angry about my decisions?" Cagalli asked "Maybe at first I did misunderstand but I'll always understand you" he answered
"I'll help you" Athrun offered "Help me? Now? Now that your in Zaft?" she asked not believing the word she just heard "After everything... the war I will" he calmly answered but she backed a way a little not understanding him.
Cagalli was expecting like a "I'll leave Zaft" kind of answer "How about Mia?" she asked
"Her? oh... already left for her performances" Athrun answered like she meant nothing to him, not that Mia really did. "Oh" was all Cagalli could say
"Did you really think I'll be with her?" Athrun asked "Well?"
"Uh? well... no I mean... OF COURSE NOT!" she yelled out her answer "And there are way more other girls out there better than her"
"Your right" Athrun agreed and tried to stop himself from laughing.
Then he turned serious "Cagalli where do you think we stand?" he asked
"Us?" she frowned "I'm not sure anymore..."
"Is it because I'm in Zaft?" he asked. She thought for a while " No" she answered feeling tears in her eyes
"Then whats keeping us apart?" his curiosity was getting better of him
"Maybe its our choices or the fact that your a coordinator and I'm a natural leading Orb or maybe its just us..." she answered
Athrun was a bit shocked he took out something from his pocket and got Cagalli's hand and slipped in a ring. "Uh.. its..." Cagalli was lost for words "It's yours.. no one else could have it but you" he told her softly.
Now it was time for Cagalli to ask "How about you Athrun? where do you think we stand?"
"First you must understand my chioce of returning to Zaft" he answered but Cagalli cutted in "You joined again because you were worried about PLANTs I don't think it was about helping Orb" he said "What else have I to understand? she asked
"You should understand me!" Athrun stiffened his voice "Tell me what I should understand?" she also stiffened her voice "What does this have to do with Zaft?"
"Because Zaft is where I am right now!" he answered
Cagalli was was about to object but thought better of it "Do you really care about me then Athrun?" she asked taking a step nearer.
