A/N- Awww… I loved all the reviews! So, I snuck on and now, I AM UPDATING! NO PARENTS CAN HOLD ME BACK FROM THIS! Although, I can't read my e-mails… TTTT So here!
Disclaimer: I do not own Gundam Seed! Very depressing though.
Cagalli turned around and gasped, in laughter. There he was, Kira, drenched in water and had on a very mad look. Which, to her, was VERY amusing.
"ATHRUN ZALA!" He yelled, with red eyes, stealing Shinn's looks.
Then came a running frenzy, and a laughing Cagalli on the sidelines. Finally, they stopped it, with a drenched Athrun and Kira, courtesy of the ocean. Kira wiped the water off his face, laughing.
"Well, that sure was fun." Laughed Athrun.
"Yeah," Kira agreed, "Well, I got to call the others now."
"You mean they were looking for us?" Cagalli asked with a look of surprise.
"Hey, we aren't that heartless." Kira joked.
"HEY EVERYONE! I FOUND THEM!"
Athrun and Cagalli cringed at Kira's sudden outburst. Then Kira noticed Athrun's missing shirt. He raised an eyebrow.
"Ahaha…" The inky-haired killer laughed nervously.
Cagalli snapped her fingers in remembrance. She jumped onto a tree and started to climb up. Seconds later the group arrived when Cagalli climbed down with Athrun's shirt.
Cagalli was scolded and they went to Cagalli's apartment and laughed when Cagalli told them about the part where she dried Athrun's clothes. She turned bright red and Lacus patted her back and told her it was natural to do that for a love. She glared at Lacus and plummeted a pillow in her face. Lacus giggled and dodged a lot of flying pillows. Everyone was busy talking and Athrun was still red.
For the next few weeks, they spent a lot of time together. Uzumi even bought a house where they all lived in, and moved out of their old ones. They went to many parks and many places.
"Who wants to go to the amusement park?" bellowed a healthy looking Uzumi.
"US!"
This group was inseparable. They did everything together, except for the obvious no-no. Although Athrun and Cagalli got closer, even DATING, Cagalli uses the term, "Out to dinner." Athrun called it, "Bonding time."
There was still Rau Le Cruset and Muruta Azrael.
Azrael was busy planning and researching on Athrun and Cagalli; so far, he found where they lived and personal info. Except for the most important thing; that they were an item.
Rau was… How should we put it? Swimming in gold coins, that's what. He made it big time. He won the lottery 5 times. TALK ABOUT A WINNING STREAK. But he used most of them on a new car.
Well, that man is despicable, as Daffy Duck puts it. To the AMUSEMENT PARK!
The group of odd people walked towards "Wa-fi-ld's Amusement Park." (They hyphens are to indicate missing letters.)
They went through the admission gates and they… Let's say they were acting like 6 year olds.
"I bet you 5 bucks that I can make a ring go on those bottles!" Yelled Athrun.
"MAKE THAT 10!" Kira shouted.
Athrun bought some rings from the stand manager. He started throwing them, but unfortunately, he missed all of them. Kira laughed at Athrun's attempts.
"Hey." Shinn called from behind.
Kira waved and noticed Mayu was holding Shinn's hand, her eyes shining with curiosity. Her eyes landed on Athrun. Then a ring Athrun threw, bounced from the bottle and then off a stuffed toy, then into Mayu's hands. She examined it like a fossil.
Athrun continued his attempts. Every time he finished a round of rings, he threatened the manager of the stand for more.
Shinn rolled on the floor with Kira, in laughter.
Mayu pulled Athrun's pant leg. Athrun looked at her.
"Can I try?" She asked innocently.
Athrun nodded. Mayu threw the ring…
DING! DING! DING!
"We have a winner!" The relieved manager shouted.
Athrun, Kira and Shinn went wide-eyed. Mayu collected her prize, which was a lollipop. She walked away in triumph, hoping to use up her pocket money on other games.
"Uh. Let's pretend that didn't happen…" Suggested Shinn. This was a humiliation to all men in the world. A GIRL did a man's job! OUCH. The other two men nodded.
Meanwhile in a corner… Lacus, Stellar, Miriallia, Luna and Meyrin giggled, watching the three men shake hands.
For Cagalli, she was talking to her father.
"Father? You have the surgery in a week…" She stated.
"Yes I do. I hope I pull through this. But at least I have a wonderful daughter and son to bring in grandchildren. If I don't make it, I will watch over you four." He said.
"F-four?" Cagalli stuttered.
"Yes. Lacus, Kira, you and… Athrun." Uzumi said softly.
Cagalli smiled weakly and blushed.
"Although, if I do pull through it, I would see a blue-haired and amber-eyed kid. I might not make it."
Cagalli scolded, "Don't speak like that! You WILL make it! Or I will have a bone to pick with Satan!"
"Satan now, eh? What did I ever do?" Uzumi pouted.
"Fine! Jesus!"
"Funny, now let's get to Athrun and the others now." He pulled out a digital camera.
She nodded and followed after her father. They saw the girls huddled up in a corner and the three men throwing…rings is it? At the stand. Or game. Then, Dearka hopped over with a whole hand of cotton candy.
Luna tripped over a banana and then their cover was blown.
"Damn." She cursed.
Lacus giggled and waved to Cagalli, who already grabbed a stick of cotton candy.
"Frut rook ro rong?" Meyrin asked with a mouthful of cotton candy.
"Wha?" Cagalli looked blankly at her.
"What took so long? That's what she said." Lacus said smartly.
"Oh, just talking with my father." Cagalli answered.
Meyrin nodded and swallowed. Then she was choking. Luna panicked and grabbed a cup of water and drained it down her throat. Meyrin coughed and gasped thanks to Luna.
"BWAHAHAHHA!" Athrun laughed maniacally.
Everyone gave him a blank stare.
"What? I finally got the ring on the bottle." He answered with a triumphant look. Then, there was a flash of lights in Athrun's eyes. He blinked a couple of times. He looked into his crowd of friends and asked, "What the hell was that?"
Stellar pointed to Uzumi, who had a digital camera in his hands. He was skimming through the pictures. Athrun glared at Uzumi. The cancer-bitten-man-but-looks-awfully-ok-to-me looked at Athrun and grinned. The irritated boy-compared-to-Uzumi-and-boy-do-I-do-this-a lot was about to throw the stuffed toy at Uzumi when…
"No one can play the violin better than The Great Blitz! He is the best of the best! Whoever can beat this boy will win a prize!" The manager of "The Best Instrument Players," yelled out.
"Phst. I can do so much better." Athrun thought aloud. Oops.
The manager looked at him and said, "Let's see about that. PRESENTING BLITZ!"
A boy with green hair came over. His purple eyes glittered with musical talent. The manager handed each of them a violin. Athrun looked at his violin in shock.
"Sir, these violins are absolutely horrific!" Athrun fumed.
"So what? If you can play better then Blitz, then you can handle that violin." The manager retorted.
"Sir, but it is true." Blitz said, shyly.
"Nic…" the man said menacingly.
Athrun looked at Nic. "He's only 14…" Athrun thought.
Then, something interrupted his thought. A sweet tone filled the air. Speaking of forests and flowers. Birds and trees. The air and the sky. Athrun glanced at Nic and saw him playing. When he finally finished, there was a round of applause.
"Your turn." The manager sneered at Athrun.
The inky-haired man nodded and started playing. It spoke of love and truth. Justice and freedom. Delight and happiness. He finished up and then there was a round of applause.
The manager glared at Athrun and yelled, "Whoever wants to vote on who's better, please visit my tent, to your left!" The crowd dispersed.
Athrun and Nic walked up next to eachother. Blitz stuck his hand out. Athrun grabbed it and shook.
"Hi, I'm Nicol. Otherwise known as, "Blitz." He smiled.
Athrun smiled and said, "I'm Athrun Zala."
"Nice to meet you, Mr.Zala."
"Call me Athrun."
"Sure."
"Hey, why do you work here? With your talent, you should be in an orchestra!" Athrun exclaimed in disbelief.
"Well, I would if I could." Nicol said sadly.
Athrun raised an eyebrow, "Why?"
"I need a resume to find a job, but I don't have one. That's why I need a job without the need of a resume." Nicol answered.
"Oh, I see."
"Also, my VERY nice manager made me one, but it was burned by a lit cigar."
"Ouch. Hey, do you have any siblings?" Athrun asked.
"No, but I do have a cousin. We work in this park together." Nicol explained.
"Also, the park manager is helping me find a job."
Athrun was about to ask something, when a man with brown hair and tanned skin came over.
"Nicol!" He exclaimed.
"Yes, Mr.Waltfield?" Nicol asked.
"I found a job available without a resume for you and Shani!"
"You're the best Andrew Waltfield!" Nicol practically tackled him, "Best manager too!"
Andrew rubbed the back of his head and smiled. Then, he finally noticed the blue-haired stranger. He stuck out his hand. Athrun grabbed it and shook.
"You're the manager?" Athrun asked.
Andrew nodded and said, "Thanks for visiting my park."
"Well, if you are, your name should be Walfilds… The sign said it…"
"What? Then I got to fix it… Thanks… So young chap, what's your name?" The tanned man asked.
"Athrun Zala."
"Where have I heard that name before?" Andrew asked himself.
"So what's the need for the job?" Nicol interrupted.
"Oh that." But at that moment, a green haired boy with amber eyes ran over and noogied Nicol.
"Shani!" Nicol shouted in laughter.
"Boys! If you want to know the job, be quiet!" Andrew laughed.
They stood as still as sticks and as quiet as a speeding ninja.
"You need… to be good at math and are good protesters…"
The boys nodded. Hey, if they could argue for 10 hours straight, that's GOOD protesting and math? That's too easy. (A/N- Math and easy in the same sentence? THE APPOCALYPSE!)
"Endurance of boredom…"
If they can watch one Law and Order episode over and over again, than that's endurance.
"Have a… Crap… Resume…"
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!" The boys wailed.
"What's the job anyways?" Athrun asked.
"A lawyer's assistant." Andrew answered. That answer added more misery to the boys.
"My father happens to be a lawyer…" He stopped short when he saw the Armarfi brother's eyes have stars in them.
"PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! GET US A JOB!" They yelled.
"Sure, my father needs them anyways…"
"YES! YES! YES!" They danced.
Athrun was in shock when the teenagers shook his hand violently.
"Hey, hey, hey! You don't want Mr. Zala here lose a limb, now do you?" Andrew scolded.
"Or two…" Groaned Athrun.
"Sorry…" The Armarfi brothers said sheepishly.
"Ahh… I'm going to miss my favourite boys…" Sighed Andrew.
"Mr. Waltfield! We will work here during the summer! Don't worry!" The boys vowed.
"Yay!" Andrew cheered.
Then suddenly, the Music manager yelled for everybody to come over to the stage. They did.
"I call the contestants up!" He yelled.
Athrun and Nicol did so and waited.
"And the winner is…"
A/N- Is it just me or is this chapter long? YES IT IS! Well, riddle of the day!
