I do not own Gundam SEED in anyway! Thanks again Tenshi for all your help!
Athrun walked down the hall, towards Yzak's room to tell him about Nicol. Frankly Athrun was surprised that Nicol was engaged to Ichiru. "Kira must be devastated at this..." he murmured to himself, walking down the hall. Soon coming to a door, Athrun knocked on a door. "Hey Yzak you in there?" he asked.
As he had guessed, Yzak was confined within his quarters. He sighed, rolling onto his side looking to the door. "Yeah I am, Zala...It's unlocked." he mussed. In wonder what Athrun would want with him.
Athrun walked in. "I found out what was wrong with Nicol," Athrun said, looking around his room. He wondered why he had to get stuff out of Nicol. "You won't believe why Nicol as been acting so weird," the dark haired male said, thinking.
Yzak sat up slowly, adjusting his messed up uniform, and buttoning the rest of it up. "...And why has he been acting so weird?" he questioned, tossing his legs over the side of the bed and standing up straight.
"His is engaged.. And guess with who," Athrun said, simply to Yzak.
Yzak's eyes widened at this. Nicol...Engaged! "...Your kidding me..." he said rather stunned at this. "...He's engaged?" it took a minute for his mind to process it, but then it hit him... "...With Ichiru...right?"
"Good guess," Athrun said to Yzak. Yzak was just as surprised as he was. "I was shocked when I heard that.." he said, standing in the door way, looking now at the silvered haired male.
Yzak shook his head. He had to admit, he felt rather bad for the other one. He couldn't imagine how painful that must've been..."...So am I...How bad is he feeling..?"
"Probably pretty bad.. I know I would if something happened like that," Athrun said to him. Athrun crossed his arms and placed them on his chest as he stood in the doorway. "Can I ask you a favor? Just don't tease him about it," he told Yzak. Nicol didn't need Yzak on his back, he was going threw a rough time.
Yzak shot him a look, growling softly. "Even I wouldn't push something like that Zala..." he muttered standing up quickly. "I know I'd be in the same shape if something happened.." he looked off thoughtfully. "Guess we'll just have to get her back someway or another..."
"I guess... She is alive.. That's all I know," Athrun said, leaving Yzak's door and head down the hall, not wanting to say how he knew that. Athrun knew Kira.. he wouldn't let harm come to her.
Yzak eyed him silently, about to question him until he turned and disappeared. Rising a brow, he sighed softly and turned. Starting back to his bed in silence..
Athrun poked his head in the doorway. "And tell Dearka," Athrun said, now disappearing down the hall.
He looked back once more, and all he did was nod. "Can do..." he said rather softly..
- On the Archangel -
Kira sat in the Freedom working on the OS to improve it somewhat. All he need was something to do to keep his mind off of what happened... He typed fast trying to forget everything and everyone.. till a knock could be heard. "Go away," Kira replied to the knock, continuing to type, trying to drown out his thoughts.
"Hey kid I need to talk to you..." The voice was muffled by the sounds of the cockpit, but Kira made it out, and who else would call him kid. It was Lt. La Flaga. The blonde haired natural waited for Kira reply. "Fine it that's the wa-" he was cut off by the sounds of opening of Kira's cockpit.
"What?" Kira answered in a voice with no emotion. He looked at the natural and waited for his reply now.
"Well you should get some rest.. You've been working hard lately and you need a break," Mwu suggested to him. He saw a little bit of fear in the kid's eyes, but didn't question it.
"Yea.. your right," Kira said, taking the natural's advice of getting some rest. Taking a hold of the cord down, he began to descend down to the ground, were he would from there walk to his room and try and rest. Knowing if he didn't rest he would have to deal with the nightmares that came to him.
Once reaching the ground, Kira began to walk toward the exit of the hanger, with his head hanging low. Mwu looked at him and shook his head lightly. "Poor kid," he murmured before taking the cord and descending down the ground.
Kira walked down the halls and passed Miriallia and Tolle. "Hey," Miriallia said cheerfully. Kira didn't reply back nor did his purple orbs look at them. Miriallia looked to Tolle. "Do you think something is wrong with him?" Miriallia asked him with a worried look on her face. "I dunno Mir," Tolle replied back to her.
There seem to someone for everyone, but him... Yea there was Flay.. but after seeing that she had tired to kill Ichiru, he began to not trust her. Think of the devil and he may come. Flay was coming down the hall, looking for him. Luckily for Kira his room was just a few more meters ahead.
"Kira!" Flay called out to him, running over to him. "Not now flay," Kira to her, still keeping his purple orbs on the ground. "But-" Kira cut her off. "I said not now," he said, raising his voice to her, entering his room now. Flay a little taken back, began but Kira had shut his door in her face and locked it behind him. Flay soon left.. Pissed off at Kira now for doing that.
Kira collapsed on his bed; he was tired but didn't want to go to the nightmares... Soon falling to the poor of the sand man, Kira fell into a deep sleep...
- Kira's POV -
In Kira's Dreams -
I was talking to Athrun a rainy after noon at the lunar prep school. It had been raining out all day, so we couldn't go outside today. Athrun began to walk down the halls, and I soon followed him. It was lunch time so we decide to go get something to eat in the cafeteria. Hearing the faint sound of music playing I stopped to listen. "Athrun do you hear that?" I asked him.
Athrun stopped, listening to for a second and shook his head at me. "Your hearing things Kira," he told me. I wasn't hearing things, so I told him I would meet him in the cafeteria.
Walking toward the music I noticed it getting louder. Took me awhile to find the source of the music, but I found it. It was coming from inside a room and that was open and tiny bit. I saw a girl playing a weird instrument. The girl stopped and looked over to the door. "You can stop watching I'm done," she told me.
The girl put away that instrument that she was playing and began to walk over to the door. She opened it the rest of the away. "It's called a Violin for your information," she told me, rather rudely. She began then began to walk to the cafeteria. And I followed her because I need to meet Athrun there.
"Ichiru!" a voice called out. It was one of her friends, Aylssa. So the girl's name was Ichiru. The two girls began to talk and walk at the same time, not even noticing I was there.
- Normal POV -
Soon the three of them reached the cafeteria, Kira went over to sit over with Athrun, while the two girl's went over to another table and sat down. Kira would glance over to the girl named Ichiru every so often. "Kira did you hear me?" Athrun asked him. Kira shook his head. "What are you doing for your break?" he asked it was around Christmas time and all the kids got a break. "Staying here," Kira replied to Athrun.
Over at the girl's table Ichiru and Aylssa were talking. "So what are you doing for your Christmas break?" Ichiru asked Aylssa. Aylssa looked at Ichiru. "I'm leaving the prep school... for good," Aylssa told her friend. Christmas break was tomorrow! How could Aylssa not tell Ichiru of this before..
"I only found out last night.." Aylssa told Ichiru... Ichiru played with her food.. Who was she going to spend Christmas with now? "I understand.." Ichiru replied with to her friend. Aylssa suddenly lost her appetite for food; she got up and left the table to finish packing.
Ichiru sat at the table alone, playing with her food. Ichiru sighed.. this was going to be the worst Christmas ever.. There was nobody to spend it with. "What am I going to do?" she said, pushing her food in front of her. Kira continued to glance at her. "You like her?" Athrun whispered into his friend's ear. "No I don't like her!" Kira said, blushing slightly.
After sitting for about ten minutes, Ichiru stood up and began leaving the cafeteria. "Athrun I'll have to go the washroom," Kira told him. Athrun looked at him. "Sure ya do," he muttered under his breath. Kira rolled his eyes before he left.
Kira soon caught up with her. "Hey what's the matter?" Kira asked her. Ichiru turned to him. "Why should I tell you?" she said, looking down to the ground. "Fine.. My friend Aylssa is leaving the prep school for good, and I got no one to spend Christmas with.." she murmured to him.
Kira looked at her then got an idea. "Maybe you would want to.. Spend some Christmas with my friend and me," Kira suggested to her. He saw her face light up. "You would do that for me?" she asked him. Kira nodded his head. No one needs to be alone on Christmas. "Thank-you so much.. I'm Ichiru Fanel, and you are?"
"Kira Yamato," he replied to her. "You didn't eat much of your food... Would you like to eat with my friend Athrun?" he asked her. Shaking her head. "No thank.. I'm not really hungry right now," she told, as she began to walk off. "Well.. Alright see you later.." he told her. Ichiru didn't bother to say good-bye and just walked off.
Athrun waited for Kira to come back, he soon saw the brown haired male enter the cafeteria and come over to the table. Athrun had almost finished eating his food. "You didn't go to the washroom did you?" he asked him, looking down at his food. "I did so," Kira said, lying.
- Christmas Eve -
Athrun and Kira were having fun pigging out on some candy Kira's mom gave him for Christmas. "These are so good!" Kira said, sitting on the floor of their. "Just don't get sick, because your gonna clean it up," Athrun told him, laughing. Kira laughed slightly, knowing they weren't going to fall asleep till late.
The laughing slowly died out, as Kira began to think what Ichiru was doing at the moment, probably asleep. Party pooper..
About two hours later Kira and Athrun had fallen asleep. Kira head's at the foot of the bed. His arm was off the bed. Athrun snoring and looked like he was about to fall off the bed. Which he did later on in the night.
- Christmas Morning -
A knock at the door could be heard of Kira and Athrun's room. "Hello?" a voice said from behind the door. "Kira? Athrun? You guys awake yet?" It was Ichiru. Kira heard the knocking and awoke from his slumber. "Who is it?" he said, rubbing his eyes as he opened the door. "Its me Ichiru," she said, smiling at him. "Merry Christmas!"
Kira looked at her, still half asleep. "Oh Merry Christmas," he said still tired. "Wake up Kira and Athrun!" she yelled.
Kira jumped back and Athrun shot up. "Yes ma'am!" Athrun said quickly. Who knew Ichiru could be so scary in the morning. Kira could see she was holding something behind her back. "What's that?" Kira asked. "Oh.. I made you guys something," Ichiru said, smiling.
She walked into their room. "I made cookies.. Cause I didn't know what to get you guys.." she murmured, slightly blushing.
She put the tin of cookies on a desk for them. Athrun pulled out a present. "This is from Kira and I," Athrun said, smiling. "You guys really didn't have to get me anything," she said, smiling. She opened the present, inside was a robotic bunny. It was black and white. "Its so cute thanks you guys," she said, smiling.
Kira had one more gift for her. He pulled out a small bow with a ribbon on it. "Here," Kira said, giving it to her, he began to turn red. "Thanks.." she said, blushing slightly.
Ichiru opened the box and inside was a stone that was crystal clear. It was strung on a string. "Oh I love it," she said, smiling.
That was the best Christmas for the three of them.
The day passed.. Then months.. Till it was the end of the school year..
Kira was waiting for him to get picked up along with Athrun. It was their last year there. Ichiru was sad.. Almost in tears to be exact. She walked up to Kira. "Kira can I talk to you alone?" she asked him. Kira looked at her confused, and nodded. They walked to a place where no one was.
Ichiru found a place were no body was around. "Thank-you," she told him. Kira looked at her and smiled. Ichiru quickly placed a kiss on Kira's cheek. "Good-bye.." she told him before running off...
