This is from Athrun's perpsective and is based on the theme 'Fragile'. I rather like this one Enjoy!

Summary: Athrun introspective on life and Cagalli set during the battle of Jakin Due

Believing in Angels

I never used to believe in angels. Why would I, Athrun Zala, believe in them?

Now I find myself wondering. If they exist, are they there to heal us? Are they there for another purpose?

I think of her, the fiery blonde with the autumn coloured eyes and I know that she fights for what is right: a completely selfless person.

God did not give us angels to heal

Angels can't exist, can they? I don't feel Mother's spirit.

And though we fight, the battle still rages on. There is no healing.

As I fly the Justice into the Genesis, I can't help but feel that I must end this.

He never created them at all

But she follows me and nothing I say stops her. I know what I must do, but she stretches her wings on the battlefield to be here with me.

"It's…it's more of a challenge to live than to die," I hear her say and my fingers falter as her angelic tears fall.

She's here for me, my angel.

But here stands an angel on the battlefield

As the Genesis explodes, I think of all the times. On that island when I was injured, she was there. When I reconciled with Kira, she was there. When my Father died, she was there. Even the times when I needed someone and there wasn't anyone, I knew that she would've been there if she could.

And as the light and dust clears and we cling onto each other, I realize just how fragile life is.

When I shatter and I don't know what to do, my angel is there to guide me down the right path.

And if I fall, I know she'll hold onto me.

To catch a soldier if he should fall

I believe now.
