Recap

"This c-c-c-can't, be them?" the captain barely managed to say. "What happened? Is this a joke or something Mwu? What are we going to do," She couldn't control the fear rising in her voice anymore. "If we're attacked now we'll …" she trailed off

"I know," Mwu answered.

"No one must find out about this, not even the crew! Let's try and kept this as quiet as long as possible, we don't want ZAFT finding out. They'll have ten fits if they find out what happened to Mr. Zala," the captain stated still staring at Athrun and Kira in disbelief.

"Understood, I'll take them to Kira's room after lights out," Mwu left the helpless pilots with the captain and her thoughts.

"What are we going to do now without our best pilot to watch the ship," Mwu whispered to himself once outside the captains' chambers shaking with both anger and fear. Little did he know, that two girls with hair as pink as strawberry ice cream happened to stumble across his whispered thoughts.

'Oh no! I wonder what happened, I hope both Kira and Athrun are ok,' Lacus thought to herself. Flay had the same thoughts fixed on Kira. The two girls somehow found the strength to go on throughout the day without worrying too much about their loved ones.

Soon it was time for lights out and Mwu was able to sneak the boys into Kira's room without being noticed. After he placed them both in their beds, Mwu re-coded the doors so that no one but he, the captain, and medical crew could disturb the boys. After double-checking the security of the room, he set off to bed.

The next morning everyone aboard the Arc Angel was woken up by a cross between a loud scream and crying coming from down the hall. Flay was the first to reach the source of the screaming. Now standing outside of Kira's room, Flay tried her best to open the door.

"Hey you ok in there?" Flay questioned to the scream on the other side of the steel door.

"Kira is leaking red stuff and Athrun… Athrun…" the person was able to reply in between sobs. Flay was surprised and worried since the voice sounded a lot like Kira, but younger.

'No way that's possible. Kira is 16 years old, not a little kid!' she giggled at the thought of there being a young Kira on the other side of that door. 'Even though, that would be kind of cute…'

"Hey you there! You're going have to move now so we get in there," She was abruptly interrupted form her thoughts as members of the Arch Angel's Medical staff began to open the door. Flay nodded and let them pass. The medical team moved out of the way long enough that Flay was able to see where those ear-piercing screams came from that woke the whole ship.

"K-K-Kira…?"
