Hello People
I want to make it to 300 Reviews, before I finish this story and I need your help.
Please review my story so I can accomplish this goal. You all will have no idea how much it will mean to me if I can get to the 300 reviews margin. Though it would be so cool, to have 400, but I don't think that's going to happen.
Anyways today's chapter shall be very sad…I think sometime I write my notes before writing the story like right now, and sometime after I have written the chapter.
We'll see what happens today so enjoy.
The next thing I knew was that I was in a white room and there was a bandage wrapped around my head. I felt no life within me and I felt so weak.
I yelled out for my baby hoping what I remembered last wasn't true
Kira came in and I grabbed his shirt asking for Aiden. I looked around and noticed that Athrun wasn't there as well, then I remembered his blood and whatever colour was left on my face it was drained and I lay back stoned at the events.
"Get a hold of you, Cagalli…Athrun's alive," Kira said a bit worried
"Where is he?" I said knowing instantly that he was hiding something.
"Athrun fought off that thing, whatever it was. Gosh was it disgusting, but I don't a third arm, stabbed him in the stomach, and he fell, he heard your scream and managed to shoot the guy, thing again, then before leaving the thing shot Athrun, and punctured a lung. He's going to live, and his injuries aren't that bad, but he's pretty weak. The first he did when he woke briefly was ask for Aiden then ask about you before, the doctor placed some morphine on him, because Athrun was persistent to see you," Kira telling her what he saw from the cameras and adding light.
I grabbed my knees and cried wondering what state my baby was in?
"Kira he's not even a year old," I said sobbing on my brother as he held me close, trying to calm me down.
"My little baby is all alone, with no one to help him, and I was the one who let him go," I said between sobs.
"Hey, Cagalli don't worry, Aiden is one of the bravest boys I have ever met, he'll make it thought don't worry. We have time don't we?" Kira said
I cried less remembering my little baby boy and reduced my cries of desperation to muffled hiccups.
"I…want…to…see…Athrun," I said my chest jerking.
"You think you can?" he asked
I nodded and slipped off the bed as Kira held me for support from the dizziness. He guided me to the room where Athrun was in and he said, "Even in his state, he calls for you and Aiden."
I nodded and said, "He loves us both."
"And just when you two are back together, you guys face another problem," Kira said in an irate tone, "I wonder why you three have to face so many obstacles."
"This is life," I said, "Our life, but your support helps. I need your help Kira, please prepare the Archangel and Eternal. Athrun will be up, I know by tomorrow morning. He won't take his injury seriously and even I can't stop him. I need to help him at least wait until tomorrow, and not earlier."
"I'll do that, even I know how much you just want go inside your gundam, start it and head to L3," Kira said, "I read over the disc."
"Good, tell everyone," I said, "And I'll tell Athrun."
He nodded and said, "Take care, your head is still a bit weak, don't stress yourself."
"I won't," I said even though I wanted to incinerate every single cell in that devil's body. He crossed the civil limit and now he would die, just like his son did, and no one was going to take that chance away. FLASH was one thing. Those people were another, but messing with my little brother and MY SON, was beyond everything.
I touched my head in pain and tried to block out all my thoughts, but I just couldn't help my heart to be in so much pain. I could feel the tears of my child pumping out of my heart and I wanted to just hold my baby in my arms, soothe his worried mind.
I looked in front of my eyes and had an immediate flash of Aiden, when he was having trouble breathing. I rushed to Athrun as I noticed that he grasped hi chest in pain.
"Athrun," I said try to calm him down and he coughed, "Hey I'm right here."
"Cagalli, I'm so sorry, I couldn't stop him, from taking our child away," he wheezed out, opening his eyes.
"Don't speak," I said touching his cheek.
"I'm so sorry," he said after drinking some water, his hand on his chest
"I let him go," I said releasing my tears, "It's not your fault."
"If it's not mine, don't say it's yours," he said managing to sit up
I sobbed and said, "I'm sorry. I let us down."
"It's never you alone Cagalli, and don't worry, we'll get him back," he said pulling me in an embrace the best he could.
"You're still hurt," I said pulling away, "You should be resting."
"I should be on a ship heading to L3," Athrun said trying to get off the bed.
"Tomorrow morning," I said sternly
"But," he said
"No BUTS!" I said and grasped my head at the loud voice I used and pained my head.
"Cagalli," he said, "Okay tomorrow morning, just please rest like me also then."
"Yes," I said, "Move over, I'm not staying alone in a freaky hospital."
He tried to smile and scooted over.
"Did you know you have that morphine stuff for a reason, just inject it inside and rest?" I said
(A/N and I know all about morphine because when I was in the hospital recovering second degree burns, I drugged myself with morphine to reduce the pain. After getting 20 shots, a person goes through plenty of pain of yes did I mention smoked lungs. I won't even start with the burns. My poor feet looking at the picture shivers. I have so many memories of that incident. Maybe I should post the story I wrote. I'll see, so now back to the story.)
"My pain reduces just seeing you, but I think a little morphine would help," he said, "But I have to sleep after."
"It makes you sleep," I said
"Oh okay, but what about you," he asked
"I'll sleep right after you," I said, trying to not think about my little son.
Athrun grasped my shoulder and said, "Aiden will be fine, believe in him, he'll be the one to crawl back to us."
"I hope so," I said hugging him and gently falling asleep in his arms.
As soon as I fell into my dreams, Athrun gave himself some morphine, knowing he wouldn't sleep without it. Falling into a dreamless sleep, both of there heart were in sorrow in pain, just wondering how their son was being treated.
With the Devil…
He came in with Aiden dangling from his legs.
"This kid," he said, "Vera!"
"Yes sir," he said, trying not to faint from shock at what his boss had done this time.
"Do you know who this kid is?" he asked
"No," Vera said
Aiden was crying, at how he was being treated and at one point accidentally punched the man or thing in his face, angering him making him dangle upside down.
Currently Aiden was enjoying the bungee jumping and laughed
"This kid is not afraid of me," he said confused
"Well, what you are planning on doing with this kid," Vera asked a bit concerned at how red Aiden's head was.
"I was going to kill him, maybe I should do it in front of that bitches' eyes," He said laughing, "But that would take to long."
"Or you could," Vera said slyly immediately silencing himself
"Or what?" he asked
"That child could be your replacement heir of Daniel, I think he seems to be fit for that role," Vera said slowly, knowing that this was the only way to save Aiden's life.
"You know I think your right," he said, placing Aiden in an upright position. Aiden was in his mind looking around for and exit, he wanted to back to his mother and father, because they were hurt, and he knew this guy did it, but for now he would enjoy playing with this evil thing.
"Umm, sir should I take him to his room," Vera asked
"Why not, Zala managed to shoot me, but I got Aiden to remove the bullet," he said smirking remembering how he tortured the 9 month old to do it.
"Are you still planning on attacking Orb," Vera asked
"Yes, we'll send out our ship in exactly two days, and then we can wait and watch the fun," he said
"Yes, sir I'll just go," Vera said with Aiden in his arms, trying not to get the little child to endure more.
"Before you leave, listen to my last idea Vera," he said
"Yes sir," Vera said
"Tomorrow I want to have a look inside Aiden's body and check his blood, he's not an ordinary Half, I can see that, and I'll compare him to that child of Ann. Bring both of them tomorrow at midnight (day after tomorrow), we'll start then." He said coldly, "If the kid can survive he'll be strong enough to be my heir, but if not, then say good bye."
Vera nodded, his face shocked with disgust. Both of them were just children.
"One question sir," Vera said needing to know
"Go on," He said
"Why did you never fix yourself," he asked
"If I did, then there would be no means to have this revenge. I want my body to show the world, while it's being destroyed what monster they are," he said
'What about you,' Vera thought, 'You nothing more then a devil.'
Vera left the room, in utter belief the child was barely a year old and he was basically going to dissect not one but two little children. It was worse enough that he went through adults, close to 50, teenager, but now he was onto children. He could still remember the cries of the people, who he kept conscious, strapped onto a table, and cut through their skin, until they died from lack of blood. All those times he wanted to scream, that he could do nothing to save those people. He could only manage so much to get out of this hell. He promised Ann, that nothing would happen to Jack, now he wasn't so sure.
He never dared to call his boss by his real name, it was to kind to say such a name to that kind of beast, but he did think about it often. How he tried to change those letters in the name, but came up with nothing evil enough.
However he did only have one name for that man and it was this
Edan Manes, Full of Fire from Hell.
Vera walked with the child in his arms. He first went to check on Jack. He the young boy sitting cross legged against the dungeon wall. His eyes were open, but they were in a void. Most people just by looking at him would think he was dead, but he knew he was far from it. This kid was injected with a strange liquid his boss gave to him; it placed him in a comma. He knew he would never let that Manes to inject anything on this child, if it was the last thing he'd do. This child was Aiden Zala, the child of the two people who were going to kill Manes and send him straight to where he belongs…seven grounds below hell.
Vera went inside the opened dungeon. He checked the boy's pulse. It was still there.
"It's time for you to wake up Jake, you have a nephew who's going to meet the same fate as you," Vera said
"Nephew," Jack cracked out like a robot.
"You're talking today I see," Vera said
Jack picked up his head.
"This is the son, of Cagalli and Athrun Zala, Jack," Vera said as Aiden's ears picked up by his parents names and he stared intently at the boy in front of him. He came off of Vera's hold and crawled to the little boy and sat in his lap, smiling.
"He's got he smile," Jack said
"Good eyes," Vera said, "You think you can eat?"
"I'll try," he responded, as Aiden hugged him and sat quietly there as Vera left
"Mama," Aiden said, "miss"
"You miss your mom, I miss mine too," Jack said
Aiden nodded and sat out of his lap and sat down facing the boy.
"Here we go," Vera said bringing some hot and fresh food, "I'll give you some in a moment Aiden okay?"
Aiden nodded and watched the boy try to eat the food. He noticed how much pain the little boy was in. He saw cut and bandages all over the guy.
He crawled up as the boy ate another spoonful and he touched a cut saying, "BooBoo"
Jack tried to laugh, but ended up paining himself and he said, "This is what I got from the evil guy who brought you here."
"I need to contact your mother and hi as well, tell them about what going to happen to both of you guys tomorrow night, well at mid night," Vera said sadly
"Let me take one wild guess," Jack said his voice sounding a bit normal, "Dissection."
Vera nodded and Aiden had a solemn look on his face.
"After hearing all the scream and dragged bodies, I'm pretty lucky to have survived this far," Jack said
"Now, there's hope, Aiden's been taken as well, and Orb is bound to come here," Vera said, "Don't lose hope, and if worse comes to worse, I'll make sure you two get out alive."
"So he will kill you, keeping all the halves lost in their memories forever," Jack said thinking of his mother, "You can't die."
Vera knew that fact as well as anything else.
"But he," Jack said pointing to Aiden, "He's just a child, isn't there anything to save him."
"Unfortunately no," Vera said, "You know the people who can save their son, if they don't come then I can say simply that there is no hope for the little guy. I'll go and convince him to at least keep you two unconscious during the process."
Jack didn't cry, because he knew this day would come, but his heart was crying for the fact that he could never say good bye to his mother, or meet his sister once more. At least he was fortunate enough to meet their son who was like him.
Vera was about to go and take Aiden, when he crawled up to Jack and fell asleep on his lap.
"Leave him here," Jack said, "I'll give him some man to man advice, before we go."
"Jack, he's just a kid," Vera said
"I know, but we won't live long enough for this, so I'll do that when we both wake up," Jack said yawning and falling asleep after.
Vera left the room; it wasn't cold in there any more.
It was early in the morning when I woke up. My head didn't have a fleck of pain anymore and I felt oddly refreshed. I looked at Athrun who wasn't breathing in difficulty anymore, but I knew he wasn't fully recovered.
I stepped onto the cold floor, which immediately placed goose bumps on my skin. I fixed the blanket Athrun was using and walked to the washroom to wash my face. I finished and went out and saw Kira come in saying that they had the preparations completed and the in would take until night to reach to L3 and till 10 or 11 to get to there base. I nodded in understanding and quickly changed. I saw Athrun wake up and I noticed that he wasn't in much pained.
"You heal pretty fast," I said
"My mother, used to tell me that," Athrun said getting off the bed and checking his wounds. They weren't deep, so they healed quickly like the stab in his stomach, was left, with nothing but a huge scar which still healing. As for the bullet, well there wasn't much left. He quickly changed and followed me to the port. Kira drove us and we arrived sombrely. No one dared talk to us knowing what had happened. I went straight to a room and tried hard not to cry. Athrun followed after me and calmed me down.
"I feel so useless," I said
"Don't say that, we'll save our baby, you know in your heart that he's still alive," Athrun said placing me on his lap and holding me tightly.
I nodded and said, "I just miss him so much."
"I know you do, and so do I, but we have to hold on for him, come let's go eat. How are we aver going to complete something without energy," he said
"Honestly Athrun, I'm not" I said
"Yes you are, now come on, breakfast is waiting," he said cutting me off.
"Fine," I mumbled and stood up to leave.
We walked to the cafeteria and I was met by my family who stood there quietly, eating as well. I realized that they must have been at it all night to finish the preparations they had technically just battled the ship. I sat down and said, "I don't think you guys slept at all."
They shook their heads and I said, "Thanks everyone, I have no idea how I could have done this without you all."
We ate breakfast in silence and they gave Athrun and me comforting words, and it really helped. I finished eating with a small smile on my face, but it soon vanished as Murre called me and everyone the control room quickly.
I ran and entered to meet the face of Vera on the screen.
You all can pretty much guess what Vera is going to say
Well i know what going to happen in the next chapter and i'm not going to give any clues
Nope
I hope you all can get me to my 300 reivew spot. I would be so thrilled if i did.
