Hello Everyone,

Another chapter,

I don't think this chapter is short. Nope definately not short, but it isn't long either.

Thank you for the review everyone, because of them i was encouraged to update today.

Anywyas today Aiden get to meet someone special...what to know who right?

Well to read and find out...

Athrun docked his gundam into the hanger and sat in his cockpit sighing. That voice kept on banging in his head. It sounded so much like Cagalli, yet the radio signal was so terrible, he didn't know for sure. He missed her so much. Her eyes, hair, smiles, the way she'd look at him, her anger, her sweetness, grace in figure skating, avalanches in skiing, every little thing about her kept on flashing in his mind. Why did she have to go? Why couldn't it have been me? Athrun thought.

"Hey Athrun," Kira said, "I think you should come out now, we explained the situation to the Earth Alliance Leader and everything is now of the past."

Athrun came out with his helmet in his hand. He tossed it to Kira, who caught it and came out, taking it back.

"I know," Athrun said and sighed, "But, I can't seem to forget that girl on the field. She seems important. Never mind she is important to prevent this war from coming, and I don't even know her name."

"Don't worry, she'll come to us. I know that she'll have us. Remember those people aren't bad, they themselves want no part in this. There seems to be another part of this mystery," Kira said.

"I know what you mean Kira, I guess for now we should try to figure out FLASH and find the key Cagalli left for us okay," Athrun said and left to change out of his battle uniform. If only that female was really who he thought she was, then maybe his heart would starting beating on its own. After changing into his uniform aboard the ship his sat down in a room and sighed. Every where he looked all he could was his Cagalli smiling, angry, loving and just being herself. Sitting back on a chair, he felt all the pain and blocked memories resurface, from that battle.

Athrun unconsciously grasped his chest. His amulet that Cagalli gave him was still there, protecting him from his sadness. That stone alone held so many memories and the relationship that Cagalli and him had. All though laughs, yell, fits, slaps, tears and love coursed his mind from that little stone alone. He didn't even get a chance to say his good byes to Cagalli, hug her for the last time, or give her one last kiss. And see her blush again, but he knew it was too late, she left him. It was all FLASH's fault, he thought at first, but after today he knew it wrong to blame Cagalli's death on people who couldn't remember their own past.

They were a group of Halves…of all people halves. Now it all made sense. Why the targets were only Naturals and Coordinators and why the Halves were quiet. Did each of the families have a loved one lost to whoever was the leader? He knew when he'd get his hand on that person. He'd give him a nice and painful death, for all the lives he destroyed, for trying to taint the peace every strived for in the past and all the lost souls sacrificed and most of destroying Orb's happiness and his family by taking our Cagalli away, and hurting her.

Now that was his mission for now and that was now his aim of living, besides his son. To make sure the peace in the world stayed safe, but could there be a chance that Cagalli was alive. He'd make sure to find her body at least and if he didn't then, he'd live the rest of his life making sure that either Cagalli had a proper burial, or she was safely in their home and once a family again. He didn't care if that took a day, a week, a month, a year, or his whole life.

'I promise you Cagalli, your dream will come true and whether I may seem it or act like it, I haven't given up on you and I never will, not until I see you body with the sign of love we gave you upon it,' Athrun vowed and smiled for the first time after a long time.

Athrun walked out and was greeted by a bustling group or in other words his family.

"Athrun, can you believe what Shinn was saying," Luna said crossing her arms

"What," Athrun replied confused

"He said he was better than me today, and I decline. I clearly did more work than him," Luna said

"No you didn't," Shinn said, "I got 18."

"Uh people, how old are you?" Dearka said, "Even 5 year old acts more mature than you two."

Miriallia rolled her eyes and said, "How about we all have some lunch, we are going to reach Orb soon and you know what will happen then."

"Media," They all said in unison as Kira and Lacus joined later on and Athrun chuckled at everyone looked at him strangely.

Athrun brushed everyone and went to the control room and said, "I hope Aiden's doing well."

"Same," Shiho said and took Yzak's hand and mumbled, "How could even think of letting me leave our little baby."

Yzak said, "I told you before, that you should have stayed, but since when do you listen to me?"

Shiho sheepishly replied, "Really, I think I had my earplugs on."

Yzak groaned, and everyone laughed.

"I wonder how you two even got together," Meyrin said

"That's a good question," Shiho said, "I think it was because his stupid attitude towards girl and that he was a cute little mommy's boy and that I was a daddy's girl and that we hated each other and I tried to kill him and then he told me how much he hated me. So I never looked at him and quit, and leave the PLANTs and he came to some sense and we went out. Oh yes he always denied that he was a mommy's boy."

"But Shiho, I'm not a mommy's boy," Yzak said angrily

"Yes you are," Everyone except Athrun, Lacus and Kira said.

Yzak steamed and left angrily, with a laughing Shiho behind.

"I know for a fact, Yzak will come back in five minutes after Shiho makes up with him," Dearka said

They all nodded and decided head to the cafeteria to eat. After eating food to fill their stomach, Murre called everyone to the briefing room.

They all went and sat patiently. Mwu came in as well and sat down as well and Andrew Waltfeld.

"So was there any damage to any of the mobile suit?" Mwu asked to the group of people who seemed to be in a ghost town.

"None at all, they seemed to basically be after the control system," Yzak said

"The Cyclops System I suppose," Athrun said

"Luckily we made it in time," Kira said

"Where do you think their next target is?" Andrew asked

"It was the Earth Alliance Base this time, maybe they'll head for the PLANTs" Lacus said

"I think they'll stay quiet for now and regroup, while we try to locate their base, and figure who and how FLASH was created. I think that key should be our target to find for now. Let's head back for Orb," Athrun said

"That's fine with us," Murre said

"How long is it, before we reach Orb," Mir asked

"A few hours," She replied

"Okay, I'm going to take a nap," Mir said stretching out and leaving the room

Slowly one by one everyone left the room, until only Athrun was left alone.

"I miss Aiden," he mumbled. Right now his son was his life, and even that short separation from his son was painful. It was surprising how much love and happiness bubbled out of the little child. How Aiden's eyes would sparkle whenever he came back from anywhere and spread his little arms out to be in his arms. Aiden always managed to surprise him with something new everyday, and now when he thought about, he couldn't imagine his life without the little boy and his energy. He was glad that Cagalli risked for this bundle of life. There was a fact that hurt him greatly though.

Aiden loved his mother very much and he could see the longing in the child's eyes for his mother. Aiden would reach take a frame of Cagalli's picture and stare at it for a long time, before hugging it close his heart, kissing it and crawled to put it back. Aiden never did forget Cagalli like him.

"Athrun we're here," Lacus said through the intercom.

"I'll be right out," Athrun said

"Okay, oh yes Athrun, Aiden is waiting for you outside. That little guy made a fit to come, in his own language," Lacus said laughing.

Athrun smiled and rushed out immediately and went to see his life and bundle of joy in the arms of Merna. The little guy couldn't help but move and want to explore the new space he was in. Merna let the little guy down and the little baby crawled around everywhere. He touched everything he could reach and was standing up using a chair as support. He jumped next wanting to go up higher, but didn't know how, so the little Half sat on the ground to think, until he sensed his father. The little baby the, turned around and immediately laughed and gurgled, crawling to where his daddy was and latched onto his leg. Athrun took a hold of the little baby and immediately embraced the child I his arms.

"I miss you little guy," Athrun said

"Dada," Aiden said, giving Athrun another surprise as the little baby went to sleep.

Athrun kissed the baby on the head and said, "Yes, Aiden, daddy's here."

Everyone smiled at the scene in front of them as Athrun left, with the sleeping child

The next day…

Athrun was currently in another meeting and decided to manufacture mobile suits, sensing the arising conflicts to come and assigned Colonel Tadoka that in case if he wasn't available because of combat reasons, that he would take his place and conduct appropriate order to the nation of Orb.

Athrun spent the rest of his morning and early afternoon, with his friends, looking for a any type of key in the manor.

"What exactly are we looking for?" Dearka said in the living room

"I key Dearka, I think it's a CD or chip of some sort, but it had information. I don't think Cagalli would leave stuff on paper," Athrun said looking through another drawer.

"Where would she put it?" Lacus said sighing and sitting down

"Any luck?" Kira said coming in

Everyone shook their head. Kira sat down as well, "If I were Cagalli, where would I put something important, in case of emergencies, and for only Athrun to see?"

Athrun looked up and said, "Definitely not here."

"Athrun I think we should take a break. Let's head out to the mall and shop and eat. I think we could all use some thing to pamper ourselves on a job well done," Luna said

"She's right," Shiho said, "At least let's take a break."

Athrun sighed and said, "Fine, let me go get Aiden first, he's been stuck in his room all morning."

Everyone nodded as everyone went to the cars and drove to the mall.

With Cagalli…

I woke up late the next morning and I was very lazy to get out of bed. My mind had gone haywire from yesterday and all the walking and stress in my head, that it created on huge headache. I slept straight away and didn't even bother changing; now I regretted it.

I stretched and went to the washroom and took a hot shower, missing the news that featured Athrun and his friends coming from a battle. After actually waking up, I decided on wearing some fresh clothes. I wore trouser cut jeans with a flared hem and a Rich gold paisley print sequined bandeau top. I wore tennis shoe with contrast strips, and headed out the door to a world I was my home, but couldn't remember why?

I placed my glasses on and tied my hair up again. The streets were crowded with blondes and other colours, much to my relief. I was unnoticeable.

Grabbing some breakfast, I decided to buy some clothes, since I was out of them. I had a feeling in my gut, that shopping wasn't a favourite of mine.

I drove in my car to the closet mall nearby, which was called Seed Mall. Passing some houses, I stopped my car at a particular manor. The Orb Manor, it was huge and was the place where the Representative lived. It was a beautiful and I wanted to go inside, but decided against it.

I reached the mall in a matter of minutes and parked my car beside a really well crafted car. I touched the body of it as my mind flashed to a scene unlocked form my mind.

I met up with a boy with brown hair and purple eyes alone and said "We need to get black bird out," since everyone had left and it was just the gang.

"Already on it, just bring him and the gang out the back in ten," He said sneaking away. I went back and pulled a person to me.

I said his name, but couldn't recall what it was in a tone so he would suspect me" I just have to go outside for I while, I'll be back in a few."

I heard him saying to some people he'd be back and I walked through the back doors into the chilly night sky. I heard people snickering behind me. I smiled and said "Hey, sharks want some dinner," laughing and turning to face my husband trying to stop me from going to the harbour. I wrapped my arms around him and said "Don't worry I won't leave you so fast."

"Cagalli, don't do that. Everyone come out, you guys aren't really good at hiding." He said

Everyone came out and we talked, on cue I covered my husband's eyes and said "Don't peek I have a surprise for you." He did as I said and a pair of headlights came out.

The boy from earlier came out and everyone was speechless, except for a "Wow!"

I said "You ready?"

"Yes," my husband replied

I took out my hand and saw him, looking at him new car. He just was widened in shock. He touched the hood of it and asked "How did you know I wanted a car?"

"Because I love you," I replied

He looked at it, then me and said "Thank you," embracing me.

"Is it a good wedding present," I asked

"Nope, it's just right." He said

I turned to everyone and waved good bye, since we were leaving for a month and I gave everyone a hug and was asked the question "We're did you get that car."

"I got a person to design it and they made it, and modernized it too meet his standards. I guess they did a pretty good job." I said

"Who were all the people?" I said. I couldn't see anyone's face clearly at all, but I heard their voices. What was my husband's name, and I got him a car for a wedding present.

I looked down to the car. Was it the same one I saw in my mind? I didn't know for sure. I wondered who the owner of the car was. I could feel that same fluttering presence in my heart. I decided to go inside, because what were the chances of the car being the same.

There was something else I could feel in my heart. There was someone else I was dying to see, but whom?

I walked inside and immediately was surrounded by a crowd. I decided to do the job I came here to do? Shop for clothes, and try to find the person in this mall, who was making my heart fly and frogs jump in my stomach.

I first went to get some pants. Now I decided on getting a few only, Ann gave me a credit card with a lot of money. I wondered what I was going to do with all of it.

After buying a few pairs of shoes and a lot of shirts and some sweaters and everything, it was in the middle of the afternoon. I was currently eating my lunch. I felt that my appetite was lost. There was someone important in this mall; I had to look for, but whom. There were close to hundreds of people in this HUGE mall, who could I possibly look for?

I still had my glasses on and people glanced at me oddly at a lot of points, but I didn't mind whatsoever. I walking around the huge mall and I passed a baby store. I softened my eyes at the little items in front of me. Could this be the other thing I was missing? Was a child someone I wanted to see? Did I have a baby of my own? I sat down on a bench.

I felt something tug on the pant. I turned to see an adorable baby. He had short sapphire hair messed up on top of his head, and with the most striking green eyes I had ever seem in my life. Something oddly familiar about those eyes, as if they were from a specific memory I held dear to me. I looked around for the parent. I didn't find one. I held the baby gently in my arms cooing it. I felt attached to it at instant.

"Hello little guy, where's your mommy and daddy?" I said to the little baby who hugged me. I felt shocked as flashed came to me at once of different scenes.

I was wondering who the baby belonged to. The precious child must have had a parent. I searched around the mall asking around if someone recognized the baby. I would have adored keeping it, but it wasn't mine. The baby shuffled around my arms and quietly fell asleep. I moved around passing and sat on a bench holding the piece of delight in my arms. I wondered where it was from, which brought my to the question of where I was from.

I searched my mind yet again finding it empty of my experiences of my past. My past has been nothing of a blur ever since I woke. I found the same empty blank black space. I frowned again. I looked around leaning on the back of the cushioned bench. There was a group of people in front. A pink, blue, silver, blonde, brown, orange, and another brown haired ones, they all had concern plastered on each of their faces. I had an urge to get up and solicit what the problem was, but something prevented me from doing so, but what?

The bundle in my arms had woken and was gurgling something at me and I had a feeling I knew what it was. Holing him in my arms I walked towards the group…What happened next I would never forget.

"Dada," the little baby said reaching out. I smiled at the cuteness in this little child.

"I bet you, your daddy is the one with the blue hair," I said laughing

The little looked at me and his eyes brought a familiarity back to me.

"You know, you seem very familiar," I said, "I have to go now, little guy, why don't you go back to your daddy."

I placed the little baby on the ground and I saw him hug my leg.

"Hey I'd love to meet everyone, but I have to go to. Plus listen to this, I can't interact with people because they couldn't confuse me of who I am?" I said to the little baby, "You know I'm on a mission and I have to remember who I am? I can't remember anyone from my past," sadly kneeling down in front of him.

He talked in his baby language and I couldn't help but smile at him. I felt as if I could understand every single word he said, but I couldn't interpret him.

"I wish I could have gotten to know you, at least your name," I said and baby smiled and laughed and tugged on a string. Curious, I took out a string, which held his name.

"Aiden," I said, "What a perfect name for you."

The little baby took my hand and wrapped his hand around my pointing finger. I felt tears fill my eyes for an unknown reason and I said, "My baby," unconsciously

Shocked at what I spoke out, I immediately got up and walked. I turned and saw the baby cry and my heart cried seeing his tears, but why?

Athrun turned to the cry his ears heard before the others. In front of him was his son crying at a retreating figure. He held his son close and the baby cried some more and managed to get out of his father's hold and started crawling towards his mother.

Athrun followed, confused by his son's action and looked up and saw a blonde disappear from sight. His heart started beating and he said, "Cagalli."

He shook his head. The chance that the girl was Cagalli was slim to none, plus there were hundreds of blonde in Orb, not all of them could have been Cagalli.

"Aiden," Athrun spoke softly

The little boy sniffled and turned to his father and hugged him tightly.

"Hey it's okay, there nothing wrong, I'm here," Athrun said soothing the upset child.

"Come on let's go home, you gave me a heart attack today, when you went missing," Athrun said, unknown to him that the little child had seen his mother and crawled to her.

I held my heart and sat in my car crying my heart out, at the hurt feeling I felt in my heart. Why did that child seem so familiar to me? And that group of people…I felt as if they were mine. I couldn't see their faces clearly because their backs were turned to me.

And their voices, kept on screaming in my mind.

I had to figure out fast who was I? Before I went mad of the emptiness I felt in my heart.
