Disclaimer: I do not own any part of gundam seed and this is not profitable, you could sue me, but you have been warned; I have no money.
Note: a little different from what I normally do. It's not a poem for one, and it's quite funny. My first gundam seed fic, please have much mercy on me especially when you review. Suggestions and ways I can improve are greatly needed and appreciated. Thank you.
Chapter 01 – strange beginnings
The flame consumes all in its path, leaving nothing in its wake.
"Alyssa, shouldn't you be going already?"
The girl jerked up from the book she was reading, flicking her black hair away from her eyes automatically.
"Yes, mother." She answered.
"Nicole, where are you?" she sighed heavily, reluctantly putting the book away.
Climbing a flight of stairs, she saw here little brother lugging his luggage out of his room. Walking over, she took one side of it and the siblings carried it down to the front door.
"What did you put in here? We're only going to be gone for a few days, did you have to bring your entire wardrobe?"
"I did not. What about you? Where are your stuff?" he asked.
She ran up to her room and brought a small sling bag down.
"That's all. Are you even planning on bathing?" Nicole asked incredulously.
"Of course I am you dud head."
"Alyssa. No name calling."
"Sorry, mother."
"Well, the two of you have fun. Send my regards to your friends. I'm going to miss you." she hugged the two of them tightly.
"Mother, we're only going to be gone for a few days. Relax. Nothing's going to happen."
"Well, take care of your little brother. If anything happens to him, I'm going to hold you responsible. Oh look the taxi is here. Off you go, and don't forget to call back every once in a while."
The two of them carried their bags to the waiting taxi and got in giving one last wave to their mother.
"I can't believe Lacus invited all of us to her holiday home." Nicole commented.
"Who's going?" Alyssa asked, she didn't really know her brother's friends very well and was rather surprised that she had been invited as well."
"Yzak is definitely coming." Nicole teased.
"Go away Nicole."
"Someone's blushing."
Alyssa ignored him, instead stared out at the scenery rushing past.
It was the school holidays and they were on their way to the famous singer, Lacus's holiday home. It seemed so unreal; moreover, as Nicole had said, Yzak would be there.
Alyssa sighed, lost in her thoughts, oblivious to her brother's raised eyebrow as he observed his lovesick sister.
Before long, they had arrived.
It was a beachfront home. And there was Lacus standing on the porch waving at them. It was one grand house.
"Nicole. Alyssa. How nice to see you. Glad you could make it. This is my butler Klueze; he'll bring you to your rooms. The rest of them are here already. We're meeting at the living room at 10."
"Thanks for inviting me and my sis. We really appreciate it." Nicole took her hand and brought it to his lips.
"Like a true gentleman." Lacus smiled.
They were amazed at the interior of the house and their room. It was simply amazing. It was built in Victorian style, with a lot of word put into details. It was almost as if they had been transported back into time.
Alyssa and Nicole talked incessantly about how beautiful the house was and how rich Lacus had to be to afford such a place, but as soon as they stepped into the living room, Alyssa clammed up at the sight of Yzak.
"Well I'm sure that most of you know each other, but just in case, I'll do a round of introductions." Lacus announced.
"Athrun, Cagalli, Kira, Yzak, Dearka, Nicole, Alyssa, Miriallia, Sai, Fllay. All of us study in the same school, so I'm sure we've seen each other around. We'll all be here for a couple days, so make yourself at home and I hope you guys enjoy your stay."
As soon as she said that a piercing scream was heard from the kitchen. The whole group ran towards the sound and saw the cook with her hand over her mouth staring at the open freezer.
Athrun took a brave step forward and peered in. He stuck his hand in and pulled out a dead lizard.
The whole group let out a sigh of relief. For a moment they had all thought something terrible had happened. They went back to the living room, where they found 11 Haros in different colours on the table. Under each Haro was a name card with one of their names. The Haros corresponded to their hair colours.
They looked questioningly at Lacus, who just shook her head and shrugged her shoulders.
A voice boomed from somewhere, and everywhere in the room.
"Let's play a game of Cluedo shall we?"
