A/N- Thanks for all the reviews! And... AHEM… Sorry for demanding for reviews in the early chapters… (Sheepish smile) I was pretty guilty after that… I know, I know, I should've said that in the earlier chapters, but I keep forgetting… Well, here's something else I forget…

Disclaimer: I would be the Queen of Japan, if I owned Gundam Seed…

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Cagalli leapt for the cup.

Uzumi swallowed and looked at Cagalli. Cagalli grabbed the cup and smashed it on the floor. Then Uzumi started coughing and hacking.

Cagalli ordered, "Kira! Arrest him!"

She pointed to Athrun.

"What? WHAT?" Athrun yelled.

Kira nodded and took out some cuffs. Athrun stood there, looking at the coughing Uzumi. Kira ran over to Athrun and tried to cuff him, but only was able to put one cuff on him, before Athrun ran over to Uzumi. Cagalli was patting him back and telling him to vomit the poison out. Athrun ran over and helped him pat his back too.

"DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH HIM YOU JACKASS!" Cagalli screamed.

"B-but!" Athrun stuttered.

Cagalli grabbed his arm and locked the other cuff on and pushed him against the wall.

Shinn shook his head and patted Uzumi in the back.

"Let… Go… Of… HIM!" Uzumi managed to gasp out.

Cagalli looked hysterically at Uzumi. If he did drink poison, he would be dead by now. She let her anger block that knowledge.

"Father." She ran up to him and helped him onto a chair.

When Uzumi caught his breath, he said, "He snuck medication into my drink. What a sneak!" He smiled.

The innocent killer gave a dramatic sigh.

"Unfortunately, he has tasted this medication so much, he practically memorized this taste. Too bad." Athrun smirked and chuckled.

Uzumi smirked and said, "Lucky me."

Athrun twitched his nose.

Uzumi raised an eyebrow. Everyone just looked at him funny.

Athrun said, "Umm… Can someone get these cuffs off? My nose is itchy…"

Uzumi looked at Kira, who just shrugged.

Athrun looked at Kira helplessly, "Are you KIDDING?"

Kira laughed nervously.

"Ahaha… Oops… I can't find the keys…" The brown-haired cop looked sheepishly at Athrun.

"Oh no…"

Dearka was off in a corner, snickering.

Yzak was holding something shiny, with a smirk on his face.

Lacus looked at Yzak and glared.

Yzak looked around with shifty eyes and grinned.

Lacus grabbed the keys and then…

It slipped…

"Oops…" she gasped.

It fell into… bad broccoli soup, which was in a waiter's tray.

Athrun looked at the soup and ran after the waiter. He looked like a duck.

The waiter walked into the kitchen and of course our hero followed.

The waiter dumped the stuff into the sink.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Athrun yelled in misfortune.

The waiter turned around.

"Huh? What?"

"MY FREEDOM JUST GOT FLUSHED DOWN THE SIIIIIINK!"

Shinn walked in and spotted Athrun on his knees.

"Ok… By the look of things… Something bad happened…" Shinn studied.

Athrun cried in despair, "THE KEYS ARE DOWN THERE!"

He signaled with his eyes towards the sink.

Shinn looked inside the sink and widened his eyes.

The waited just stood there, looking at the frantic pair.

Luna walked in and asked, "What's taking so long?"

Shinn pointed to the sink.

Luna looked inside and popped a bubble. I mean literally, she was chewing gum.

"That-" she pointed to the keys hanging on the edge of the drain, 7 inches in the pipe, "-is going to be a problem…"

Athrun was in a corner, thinking dark thoughts. His life… With a pair of handcuffs… FOREVER! What about his social life? No one will date a man with cuffs. I mean, you can't hug, pay for money, etc, LIKE THAT!

"Fortunately, Meyrin is also the smartest girl in college. She'll think of something." Luna smirked.

Athrun had a hint of hope.

"MEYRIN!" Luna shrieked.

Meyrin ran in, "WHO DIED?"

"No one…" Shinn slowly said.

Meyrin was informed about the barely stable keys.

She said in disbelief, "THAT'S IT?"

Luna, Shinn and Mr. dark-thoughts-but-had-a-hint-of-hope nodded.

Meyrin shook her head. She grabbed a VERY long chopstick and made Luna sacrifice her gum. She put the chewed gum at the bottom of the chopstick and retrieved the keys. By then, Athrun was kissing Meyrin in the shoes.

Meyrin looked at him, as if he was a lunatic.

She unlocked him.

Athrun JUMPED FOR JOY.

They all walked outside and sat around the table.

cagalli smirked at athrun. athrun stuck out his tongue childishly.

Cagalli held up a menu and asked, "WHAT DO you all want?"

"The special." Answered Athrun. (A/N- Sorry for the capitals. That section was messed and had to capitals, I apologize…)

"Chicken with garlic sauce." Quipped Shiho.

"Whatever she wants." Yzak mumbled.

"2 specials. One for my date and I." Dearka smirked.

"Congee and a salad." Uzumi called.

"You on a diet?" asked Kira.

"Nope, stupid doctors said so." Muttered Uzumi. He had a look that said, "If I laid my hands on them, I'LL!"

Kira nodded and said, "I want… A cake, 3 scoops of ice cream; strawberry, chocolate and banana. AND a salad please."

"YOU on a diet?" Shinn incredulity asked with wide eyes.

"Yup."

"………………………………………….."

"What?" Kira looked around at the blank stares and the dropped jaws.

Luna broke the silence with, "Meyrin and I'll take 2 dishes of Bok Choy."

Stellar and Shinn said together, "Lobster please."

They looked at eachother and blushed.

Mayu smiled and said cutely, "Fried chicken please!"

Cagalli nodded and said, "And I'll take Fried noodles with bok choy and carrots."

"All we need now is a waiter." Yzak said sarcastically.

Everyone just realized, where's the waiter?

Coincidentally, a brown haired waitress came over. Her purple eyes showed enthusiastically at them.

She asked, "I'm Murrue Ramius! How may I help you?"

Cagalli repeated whatever everyone said. Murrue nodded and walked away with a page full of orders.

A familiar voice echoed through the doors. The words crystallized, "Dea-a-a-arka? Where are you?"

A familiar woman walked in. She wore a knee length orange dress, which was more elegant than the one in the actual show.

Dearka smiled and waved her over, "Miriallia!"

Mirialli smiled and walked over…

A/N- I'm guessing, "ANOTHER CLIFFIE? WHY THAT LITTLE ANGEE!" (Waits for rotten food to be thrown) Oh and before you pummel me to a pulp, if you wanted to know what I meant by, "The words crystallized." I meant that it was crystal clear. I'm trying this new writing technique, my teacher made me do… So yeah.
