A/N: Okay, after more than two months of thinking, I finally found a perfect way for Kira and Athrun to die… literally…

One late morning at Kira's office…
"Lacus!" Cagalli stormed in, literally breaking down the door, "Have you seen Athrun anywhere?"
"Umm…" Lacus stared, still feeling the effects of the shock.
"Hello? Earth to Lacus?" Cagalli waved her hand in front of Lacus' face.
"Oh…" Lacus blinked, ending her trance, "…sorry, I just got stunned by your sudden entrance…"
"No time for that… have you seen Athrun?"
"To be perfectly honest, no. I was about to call you to ask if you've seen Kira."
"What? But he wasn't at home all night." Cagalli put on a worried face.
They looked at each other for a while until someone broke the second door to Kira's office.
"Princess! Lacus!" Mwu shouted.
"Don't call me 'princess'!" Cagalli glared at Mwu, making him stop dead in his tracks.
"What is it, Mr.LaFlaga?" Lacus asked, in complete contrast to Cagalli.
"Well, someone called and said that Athrun's car was found. The investigators said that the car may have fallen from the cliff due to its heavy damage." Mwu said, reading the fax that he received.
"Where are they?" Lacus asked.
"They're at the hospital… both of them are at critical condition… the doctors said that there's very little chance of them surviving." Mwu sighed.
"Really? Why do you know so much? Are you responsible for all this?" Cagalli raised an eyebrow.
"Wait! Wait! You don't understand! It's not like that!" Mwu raised his hands to surrender.
"So it's you, isn't it? You did this to them!" Cagalli shouted at Mwu.
"Wait! That's not how it is!" Mwu shouted back.
"Mr.LaFlaga? How could you?" Lacus' face went from disbelief to grieving in 5 seconds.
"How many times do I have to tell you, I didn't do it!"

At the hospital…
"Are you sure this is a good idea? Faking an accident and then sudden death the moment they arrive? Isn't that a bit too tragic?" Athrun asked Kira.
"Of course I'm sure. If we don't 'die' when they get here, I won't be able to stop myself from laughing at them." Kira said as he chuckled a bit at image of the face of his crying twin.
"Well, you do have a point… it would be weird to see someone as scary as Cagalli crying…" Athrun then took his turn to chuckle, "…wait a minute… what about the doctor? How can he stop himself?"
"Don't worry. The doctor's a well known foreign actor that specializes in tragedy. I'm sure he can do it." Kira shrugged his bandaged shoulders.
"If he's well known, don't you think one of them would recognize him?" Athrun raised an eyebrow beneath the bandages.
"He's well known… in the Equatorial Union. Here in ORB, I don't think so."
"Okay, fine… but if this plan backfires, I'm putting you inside a cannon and fire you into the PLANTs." Athrun warned as he laid back on the bed.
"Fine! But I assure you this won't back fire! The doctor said so!"
"What did he say?"
"He said "I'm the guy who could make the impossible possible!"", Kira imitated the tone of the voice.
"I think the doctor is Mwu… am I right?"
"Yup."
"So, Mwu's an actor in the Equatorial Union?"
"Yup."
"Now that's a surprise…" Athrun sighed and closed his eyes.

In the hospital's lobby…
"Geez… Why did I have to take this stupid job?" Mwu asked himself and sighed. A few minutes later, two bright colors flashed in the lobby, namely yellow and pink.
"Great! We're here at the hospital and we have no idea where to find those two!" Cagalli screamed, getting the attention of everyone.
"But… Cagalli…" Lacus calmly tried to stop Cagalli.
"That Mwu should have told us where to find them!" Cagalli continued, ignoring Lacus.
"CAGALLI!" Lacus shouted. All the people's gazes shifted from Cagalli to Lacus.
"Umm… What?" Cagalli squeaked as she stared at the very scary and very angry Lacus.
"Just ask the people at the help desk." Lacus smiled as if nothing happened.
"Oh… right." Cagalli nodded and walked towards the desk when a blond doctor with swirly glasses and surgical mask stepped forward.
"How may I help you?"
"Umm… do I know you? You seem oddly familiar." Cagalli raised an eyebrow.
"I assure you! You do not know me!" the doctor raised his hands to prove his innocence.
"Alright, fine! Now tell me where they keep the two patients from last night's accident!" Cagalli roared… quite literally.
"Umm… 7th Floor, Room 798." The doctor pointed to the elevator.
"Alright!" Cagalli ran towards the elevator.
"Thanks, Mr. LaFlaga!" Lacus smiled and followed Cagalli who was currently pressing the up button repeatedly.
"What the… How did she know?" Mwu stood still and scratched his head.
A few minutes later, at the 7th Floor…
"Well… here it is! Room 798!" Cagalli said as she grabbed the doorknob and turned… only to realize that it was locked, "It's locked…"
"Apparently, it is…" Lacus put a finger on her chin.
Then, out of nowhere, swirly-glasses doctor appeared and raised a single hand.
"Yo…" the swirly-glasses gleefully greeted them.
"WHAT? YOU AGAIN?" Cagalli screamed and pointed a finger at the doctor.
"Apparently, that's the situation." The doctor crossed his arms.
"Apparently, it is…" Lacus put a finger on her chin… again.
"Umm… Lacus? Is there something wrong? I think you just repeated your actions a few moments ago." Cagalli raised an eyebrow.
"Apparently, it is…" Lacus put a finger on her chin… for the third time.
"Argh!" Cagalli nearly pulled off her hair in frustration but calmed down as soon as she remembered the purpose of their visit, "So, are they in here? The door's locked."
"Oh, right. Well you see, something came up and they were brought to the Emergency Room." The doctor clasped his hands together and smiled beneath his mask.
"And where exactly is the Emergency Room?" Lacus said something different… finally.
"It's at the Ground Floor!" the doctor smiled at them.
"What?" Cagalli's eyebrows twitched.
"Like I said, Ground Floor!" the doctor smiled again.
"This stinks. After going all the way here, we have to go back to the Ground Floor…" Cagalli said as she went to the elevator and pressed down repeatedly.
"Right… Thanks, Mr. LaFlaga!" Lacus smiled and followed Cagalli.
"Whoa… That's the second time…" Mwu stood there and scratched his head.

A/N: Well, I haven't killed those two yet… but I will kill them soon, probably by next chapter… (insert evil laugh here). All that aside, I've rewritten my previous Gundam SEED Fanfic entitled "Gundam SEED Reverie"… On the other hand, my Naruto Fanfic entitled "Future Hokage" will be put on hold until I reach Chapter 11 in this story. Please review!
