A/N: A fic in dedication of Christmas and New Year. Have fun reading! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, mina!
Disclaimer: I won't be writing fics if I owned Gundam Seed/Destiny, I'd be making more sequels to the anime focusing on Athrun and Cagalli.
"Snowflake"
Stellar woke up early the following morning, earlier than her sister, Cagalli, when it was always Cagalli to be the one to wake up earlier than her.
She went downstairs after taking a bath and waited for Cagalli.
Cagalli on the other hand, was still a sleep. For the whole night, she didn't get any proper sleep. She had a nightmare that always woke her up every thirty minutes.
But when she fell back asleep around eight forty, her dream took longer than the previous ones.
DREAM
Cagalli was just walking around the park happily, until two masked men grabbed her by the arms.
"Let go! Let go of me!!" Cagalli yelled desperately as she tried to fight back. "Damn you, bastards!"
"Urgh!" Cagalli kicked one of the guys and was able to be free, she ran away from the two men hoping to get some help.
But as she ran, she saw no one. Not even a dog or a bird in sight, so she just ran. She turned right to an alley way.
She stopped to catch her breath but suddenly one of the masked men appeared in front of her.
"AH!" Cagalli screamed as she saw the mysterious man's figure.
She turned away to get out of the alley way but the other man blocked her way.
"Get out of the way!" Cagalli yelled but the man sprayed something at her that caused her to faint.
The two men snickered and carried her to an old creepy wrecked house.
Cagalli opened her eyes slowly, her vision was a bit blurry at first. She groaned in pain, she found herself tied into a wooden chair, her hands were tied together at the back of the chair tightly and her legs were tightly tied to the chairs legs.
"Damn…" Cagalli groaned as she looked around the room.
Then she heard footsteps approaching her way. She blinked to let her vision come clear.
She saw two dark figures in front of her.
"Who the hell are you!" Cagalli demanded angrily "And what do you want from me!"
The two men just snickered at Cagalli's pathetic sight.
"Damn you!" Cagalli yelled as she tried to break herself free from the chair.
"There's no use, bitch" One of the men spoke "There's no possible way that you could break free from those ropes"
"Try me, you fucking bastard!" Cagalli replied angrily.
Then the man punched her on the face and then the other man stopped him.
"Hey, don't kill her now" the other man said "Don't forget she has to suffer more!"
"Right," The other replied.
The next thing Cagalli knew was that both men were trying to undo her clothes.
"We'll make you suffer, you bitch!" One of the men spoke.
"After what you've done to us! You should deserve the right punishment!" The other said.
"AHHHH!!!!!!!!!" Cagalli yelled as she tried to kick the men away but er feet were still tied to the chair "HHHHEEEELLLLPPPP!!!!"
"Get away from me! You bastards!!!" Cagalli kept yelling and moving, hoping that se could be free from the knots.
One of the guys managed to tear her sleeve.
"BASTARD!" Cagalli yelled, slowly tears flowed out her eyes, her vision getting a bit blurry again.
She closed her eyes to fix her vision, and when she opened her eyes, she saw a man fighting with her kidnappers!
The three men had a fierce (over re-acting a bit) fight, but even if he was alone, the mysterious man knocked the two kidnapper's out on the ground!
Then a man with emerald green eyes came behind her and untied the ropes letting her free.
"Thank you" Cagalli said. "What's your name?"
"I'm………" Was all the man could say.
END DREAM
Cagalli woke up before the mysterious emerald eyed man could reveal his name. Cagalli slowly went to the bathroom and took a bath. After se took a bat, she took a glance at her alarm clock and she was surprised to see that it was already three thirty in the afternoon.
She rushed downstairs after changing, she yelled out Stellar's name as soon as she reached the living room.
Stellar came with an apron and baking mittens on.
"Yes, Cagalli?" Stellar asked as she took a seat on the couch.
"Why dint you wake me up!" Cagalli yelled flailing her arms.
"When I woke up, I as told to go to your meetings this morning!" Stellar said louder "And they haven't mentioned that it would take me the whole morning! I was to prepare for dinner!"
"Oh my! The meeting!" Cagalli gasped "What happened during the meeting?"
"Nothing you should worry about" Stellar said normally this time "They just wanted you to know that the company is doing fine and gifts for the children at the shelter have been bought. And the whole company is going smoothly! And they said that their Christmas break starts on December sixteen. And resuming of work will be on January ten, and they also said to greet you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year"
"Good!" Cagalli sighed as she sank on the couch.
"What made you wake up late anyway?" Stellar asked "I mean it's already quarter to four, you haven't awakened this late before. Well, except when you were a kid but you know what I mean."
"Are you sure you won't tell anyone?" Cagalli glared at her sister.
"I promise!" Stellar said raising her right hand "Oh! You didn't pee on your bed did you?"
"NO, of course not!" Cagalli yelled "The reason is that I had a bad ream, a nightmare tat ended as a dream!"
"Huh?" Stellar looked at Cagalli confusedly.
"Maybe I should start explaining from last night!" Cagalli sighed and then she explained everything to Stellar.
Meanwhile, at the Zala mansion, Athrun as having problems of his own----Shin.
"C'mon, Athrun!" Shin begged as he followed Athrun ever since this morning around the house "Tell me!"
"NO!" Athrun replied back in a I'm-pissed-off-already-so-leave-me-alone!
But Shin wanted to know what caught Athrun up and if Athrun wont tell him, he'd do anything to crack it out of him. Shin believes it is called a brother's job that he must do it for he is Athrun's younger brother.
"Please!" Shin whined.
"NO!" Athrun replied again.
"Please!"
"NO!"
"Please!"
"NO!"
"Why?"
"No—" Athrun cut himself off and looked at Shin.
Shin had a pleading puppy dog face the one that has teary fake eyes (imagine this scene as Athrun being a normal anime character and Shin being a chibi pleading) clasping his hangs together looking at Athrun.
All Athrun could do was stare stupidly at his brother.
"PPPPLLLLEEEEAAAASSSSEEEE????" Shin asked but this time he made his voice sound like a six year old begging for ice cream.
"NO!" Athrun said but his voice was a bit cracking, he mostly--- no always fell for that Shin Puppy Chibi Face. "No… No… No, Shin! Stop! NO!!!"
"PWEEAAASSSEEE, Athy???" Shin asked and yet again in that six year old voice.
"NO! End of stupid discussion!" Athrun said, but Shin didn't stop. Athrun slapped himself on the face.
Shin smiled as Athrun slapped his face, "Now you're gonna tell me?"
Athrun sighed desperately "YES!"
"YEY!!!!" Shin cheered as he jumped up and down like that six year old that finally got his ice cream. "YEY!"
"Stop that you, maggot!" Athrun yelled at Sin but not angrily.
"YEY!" Shin kept on jumping "YEY!!! Athy's gonna tell me! Athy's gonna tell me! Athy's gonna tell me!!!"
"Uhhh…." Athrun slapped himself on the face again.
Then suddenly Shin stopped jumping around and became a normal anime character.
"So, what?" Shin asked "What're you gonna tell me!"
"Yes, I will tell you!" Athrun replied.
"I know you'd tell me" Shin said back with gestures with his hands "I asked what would you tell me, so what are you gonna tell me?"
"Here, in my room!" Athrun pushed Shin in his room.
"Hey! Watch the shirt!" Shin whined as Athrun pushed him in his room.
Once they got in, Shin jumped on Athrun's bed, and jumped on it.
"Shin Asuka Zala! You so do not act like a twenty-two year old man!" Athrun yelled at Shin.
"I'm twenty-two, just two years ago I became an adult," Sin said wile jumping "But still, I'm barely out of my teen years, right?"
Athrun slapped himself mentally and said "Oh, never mind!"
Then Athrun sat on a chair while Shin was jumping on his bed.
"Have you heard of the five monkeys jumping on the bed?" Athrun asked Shin.
"Eh?" Shin asked back.
"You know, where all five naughty monkeys jumped on bed, and one by one, they ended up having a cast?" Athrun grinned.
"HA! You can't buy me with that stupid kindergartener joke!" Shin said hotly.
Then suddenly Shin fell from the bed.
"OW!" Shin exclaimed "My arm!"
"Do I need to call the doctor and give you a cast?" Athrun joked.
"Ha, Ha, Ha, very funny!" Shin said sarcastically. "Just tell me what you had to tell me!"
"Okay, it's like this" Athrun said silently. "Why I was being noisy last night and also very snobbish this morning was because of a strange dream!"
"A dream?" Shin asked the burst into laughter "You act like a five year old girl, Athrun!"
"Shut-up!" Athrun pinched his brother's ear.
"OW! Hey, that hurts! My ears are sensitive you know!" Shin complained.
Then Athrun let go of his ear.
"It wasn't just a dream, okay!" Athrun said.
"Okay, so how did the dream go?" Shin asked as he ate a cookie from no-where.
"It went like this" Athrun began telling Shin his dream.
That he was walking around the city, but strangely, no one was at sight. He just walked and walked around the city, hoping to find someone. Then he suddenly heard someone yell, a female yell.
He quickly followed the sound and it lead him to an alley way. But he was too late; the girl was being carried into a van by two masked men. He followed the van to its destination.
When he reached the destination, he had a hard time getting in because of some guard dogs and thorny bushes. But he escaped the dogs with out a scratch and didn't get wounded by the thorns, though it took him time.
When he got in, he saw many doors and he decided to go in on all the doors. He went into three doors before finding the girl.
He saw the two masked men undoing the blonde's clothes and a terrified blonde who was tied to a chair. One of the men was able to rip the blonde's clothes, the blonde cursed at him.
The girl cried, Athrun having this strange feeling inside him, suddenly barged in and punch the to men. Then Athrun and the two men had a fight.
Athrun won the fight and untied the girl from the chair. Then the blonde thanked him and asked for his name. Athrun told her name and he asked hers too, but he woke up before the girl could finish her sentence.
"Such pity" Shin said "Now, what did you say about the girl?"
"She had blonde hair, and that's all I could remember." Athrun replied scratching his head.
"Too bad you didn't get her name, bro!" Shin joked as he stood up "If you id, maybe we could search for her and she could be Dum! Dum! Dum! Your soul mate!"
"That's just stupid!" Athrun said.
"Well, believe what you believe, bro" Sin opened the door "Get ready, cause we need to go to the Athha's for dinner!"
Then Shin went out of Athrun's room. Thirty minutes later, Athrun waited for Shin in the living room.
"Sorry, to make you wait!" Shin apologized "I had some stuff to do"
"Let's just go, you're fiancé is waiting!" Athrun joked.
"URGH!" Shin grumbled.
Then they went to the (HUGE) garage.
"Which car?" Athrun joked "Yours or mine?"
"Yours" Shin answered.
"Okay, pick one from twenty of my cars" Athrun joked.
"Hmm, let see… So many to choose from…" Shin joked "Ah, who cares! Just pick any!"
"Okay" Athrun said.
Then forty minutes later, at the Athha mansion…
"They are late! It's already six thirty three and ten seconds!" Cagalli yelled "They are late by three minutes and ten seconds!"
"Quit whining, Cagalli" Stellar said "They'd be here soon, maybe they were just caught up somewhere"
"Fine, I am willing to wait for a few more minutes" Cagalli said irritated-ly as she slumped on the chair.
Shin and Athrun were hold up at the flower shop. Shin was having a difficult time in choosing the right flowers for Stellar.
"Just pick something!" Athrun complained "It's only flowers!"
"Wait! It has to be the perfect flowers!" Shin replied trying to choose from the many selections of flowers.
"Just pick the friggin' roses!" Athrun complained.
"WAIT!" Shin said.
Athrun went to the counter and paid for a bouquet of roses.
"A bouquet of roses please" Athrun said kindly.
Then the lady arranged a bouquet of roses and gave it to Athrun.
"What!" Shin exclaimed "Roses! I gave Stellar that on her our first date!"
"Who cares! We're running later anyways!" Athrun replied back at Shin.
"Fine!" Sin said "But I bet wouldn't like it!"
"How much are you betting, little brother?" Athrun asked as they walked out the store.
"A thousand" Shin said.
"Okay, and a thousand if she'll like it" Athrun smirked.
"I'm her fiancé! I know she won't like it!" Shin said as they got in the car.
"Whatever" Athrun shove the bouquet to Shin and rove to the Athha mansion.
Once they reached there…
"Oh, Shin!" Stellar ran and hugged Shin "Thank goodness! You are finally here! Cagalli has been waiting"
"She… She has?" Shin gulped. "Well, he-here are some-some flowers for-for y-you, St-Stellar."
Sin handed the roses to Stellar. Stellar smiled and hugged Sin.
"I love it, Shin!" Stellar said "It's just like what you gave me on our first date!"
"You do?" Shin asked.
"Of course I do!" Stellar kissed Shin on the cheek causing him to blush.
"O, um, uh, yeah!" Shin stuttered "This is my older brother, Athrun. Athrun, this is Stellar she is my fiancée."
"It's a pleasure to finally meet you, Stellar" Athrun shook hands with Stellar "Shin has told me tons about you."
"I'm pleased to meet you too, Athrun" Stellar smiled.
"Good, now that you two are acquainted," Shin panicked "Where's you sister? Is she asleep? Then good! Is she still waiting? Athrun, call the memorial thing and order our coffins!"
Athrun ignored Shin, he thought that his brother was just over reacting, and indeed he was over reacting. Athrun saw a painting on the wall and was amazed by it so he went to check it out. Leaving his younger brother panicking.
"Calm down, Shin!" Stellar assured "Cagalli's not at all bothered that you are late."
"Oh, I am!" Cagalli yelled from the stairs.
Cagalli marched down the stairs and hit Shin on the head.
"You're late!" Cagalli yelled.
"I'm sorry!" Shin apologized.
"Sorry doesn't cut it, buddy!" Cagalli yelled "What if you are late on your wedding day? Huh?! And my annoying sister would be stupidly waiting for you in the altar!"
"And she says that we should act all goody good-good!" Stellar thought sarcastically "Yea, backing down on her own words! If she just knows what se's doing, she'll be panicky like Shin…"
"Um, Cagalli," Stellar tried to hush Cagalli "It wasn't Shin's fault they were caught in traffic"
"Fine! Be that way!" Cagalli humphed and crossed her arms.
"Um, hey, sis" Stellar said cheerfully trying to calm Cagalli down "This is Shin's brother, Athrun! Athrun, meet Cagalli! Cagalli, meet Athrun!"
"Who?" Cagalli asked confusedly "You're speaking to fast, sis" Still, she didn't notice Athrun.
Stellar sighed "Cagalli, this is Shin's older brother, Athrun"
Cagalli faced Shin's brother "Huh! He… He… He's the one… from my dream…"
"And Athrun, this is my sister, Cagalli" Stellar told Athrun.
And Athrun noticed Cagalli. "Hey, she looks like the girl from my dream!"
