--
A navy blue-haired young man was strolling in the streets of Orb.His emerald-green eyes shined in the dark.His hair swaying as the wind blew across him.He was a very handsome young man,with his hair and his 'magical' eyes.But sadly,he has no girlfriend nor friends. Suddenly,He heard a cry for help.He followed the cries and was now standing in the entrance of a dark alley.
"Hello?" Athrun,the young man asked as he looked around the alley.
"Help! Help!" Cries were heard again.
Athrun took a corner to the left and saw a man chocking a beautiful pink-haired young lady.
"Sir,please stop chocking the innocent lady" Athrun pleaded.
"What?" The man turned to look around and saw Athrun. "Who the hell are you?" he yelled as he stopped chocking the lady.
"I find no reason to tell you who I am.Now,please step back and let me take the lady.Then,it's all settled,okay?" Athrun said as he took one step forward.
The man took out a knife and held it at the lady's neck. "Take one step forward and she's dead" the man threathened.
"Sir,please,why do you kill innocent people?" Athrun pleaded once more as he froze at the place he was standing.
"She is no innocent person! She…she…k..killed my daughter.." the man shouted as he tightened the grip on the lady's hand.
"Sir…" The lady started. "I..did not kill your daughter…".
"Then who?" The man asked as he looked straightly in the lady's eyes.
"Akuro…" The lady whispered as she looked down.She promised her friend that she wouldn't tell but if she didn't tell,she'll be killed.
"Akuro? But isn't she my daughter's best friend? Why would she kill my daughter? You must be lying!" the man answered.
"I am not lying,sir…" The lady said again as tears began flowing down her cheeks.
"If I hear that you're lying,the first thing I'll do is kill you,hear that?" the man said to the lady as he lowered the knife and puts it in his pocket.He lets go of the lady and she falls on the cold,hard floor.
The man pointed a finger at Athrun and walked away.Athrun walked over to where the pink-haired lady was standing and bent down to pick her up.
--HOSPITAL--
Athrun was waiting outside the room where the lady he found was in.Ten minutes later,a doctor came out.
"Doctor,is she all right?" Athrun asked,his eyes filled with worry.
"Yes,but she just broke an arm,that's all.It's not a serious injury,so you can take her home."
"May I visit her now?" Athrun asked the doctor.
"Yes,you may." The doctor answered as he bowed and entered another room,tending another patient.
Athrun opened the door slowly and peeked inside.There sitting on the hospital bed was the young lady.She turned her head towards Athrun and smiled.
Athrun smiled back and sat on a chair beside the bed. "Are you feeling okay?" he asked.
"Yes,I'm feeling quite better.Thank you."The lady answered,still smiling.
Suddenly,a pink Haro appeared out of nowhere and jumped up and down saying "Hello! Hello!"
"Oh,hello Pink-chan!" Lacus said as she giggled.
"I'm glad you're feeling okay." Athrun said as Lacus turned her head towards Athrun. "By the way,I'm Athrun Zala." He introduced extending a hand towards her.
"I'm Lacus Clyne.Pleased to meet you." Lacus said,shaking Athrun's hand with her right hand,since her other hand was injured.
Lacus then looked at her watch she was wearing.She gasped as she stared at the watch.
"What is it?" Athrun asked at her sudden gasp.
"I'm sorry.But I have to go.I'm very late for a important meeting.Gomen." Lacus said as she started to get up,but failed.
'I don't have a date yet.Oh dear,what am I going to do?' Lacus thought.
"Here let me help you." Athrun said as he took Lacus's right hand and pulled her up gently.
'Maybe,I should ask this man to be my date.' Lacus thought again. "Uhh..Athrun-san,do you have anything to do after this?" She asked the navy-blue haired young man.
"Uhh..No.Why do you ask?" Athrun asked.
"Will you please be my date for the meeting?" Lacus asked as she looked at him with kawaii puppy dog eyes.
"Uhh,sure?" Athrun said as he laughed.
"Arigato gozaimasu!" Lacus said as she hugged Athrun.She pulled back and giggled at Athrun's blushing face.
"Well,let's get going then." Athrun said as he proceeded towards the door.Lacus followed soon after.
They walked towards the counter and Athrun payed the bill.Then,Athrun and Lacus walked out together to the dark night air.
"So,where is the meeting?" Athrun asked out-of-a-sudden.
"Oh,I forgot to tell you! It's at the Orb mansion!" Lacus said as she giggled.
Athrun gasped. 'Did she just say…Orb Mansion?' Athrun thought.He then stopped dead on his tracks.
Lacus stopped and looked at him. "What's wrong,Athrun-kun?" Lacus asked worriedly.
"N..Nothing.." He quickly answered as he walked again.
Lacus then followed him again, her eyes full of worry. 'Maybe...it has something to do with the Orb Mansion..' Lacus thought.
--
Half an hour later,they arrived at the Orb Mansion.Athrun had walked back to his house and changed into a tuxedo.Lacus didn't need to go back to her house because she was already dressed up in a beautiful pink dress.
"Lacus-san!" a voice called.Lacus tilted her head and saw her best friend,Kira Yamato.
"Oh,hello Kira-kun!" She said as she smiled warmly at him.
He blushed and noticed Athrun beside Lacus.
"Who is he?" Kira asked as he pointed his thumb towards Athrun.
"He's my date." Lacus answered and Athrun bowed.
"It's a pleasure to meet you.I am Athrun Zala." Athrun introduced himself politely.
"Hello" Kira simply replied as he smiled at Athrun.Deep inside,he was very jealous.He had a deep crush on Lacus since he met her but she never quite noticed.But Kira was still happy that they were friends.Or rather,best friends.
"Kira-kun,where is Cagalli-chan?" Lacus asked the twin-brother of the said tomboyish princess of Orb.
"Oh,she is just getting ready.The maids are tired of asking her to wear a dress and she's still in her room." Kira said. "Let's go in." Kira added as Lacus and Athrun followed him.

The Orb Mansion was very beautiful with it's expensive antiques,furnitiers and other house thing's.The kitchen was also very big,with all kinds of food.The living room had a comfy big sofa and a fire-place infront of it.There was also a big,flat screen TV at the other side of the room.The Orb Mansion also had it's own library full of books.It was like a Dream House to Athrun.
There were only fifteen or so people in the mansion excluding the family.There was also soft,classical music playing in the bathroom,kitchen and every room in the mansion.
Suddenly,screaming was heard upstairs.Athrun gasped. 'What was that?'.He turned around and looked at Kira and Lacus.They were having a short conversation.When they heard the screaming,they still continued their conversation,acting like it was nothing.
"Uhh…Excuse me? But,didn't you hear the screaming?" Athrun asked the two of them.
"Oh,that,It's a normal thing here so don't worry about it.It's just my little sister." Kira said quite loudly.
"I heard that!" a shout was heard.
Than,came out a beautiful blonde haired,amber eyed young lady.She was wearing a beautiful green gown with matching green high-heeled shoes.On her head was a gold crown.
'Orb's…Princess?' was the only thing in Athrun's mind as he stood there,awe-struck.
