Chapter 6: Inquisition

Stellar acted without thinking, she leapt over Kira's desk and made a vain attempt to strangle him. Then before she knew it, she was against the wall with a gun barrel pointed directly against her forehead. Kira held the gun in place without blinking as he ignored a stunned Mayu and an Athrun Zala who was squeezing his broken nose with all his might, trying to make the pain go away.

"I take it that your action was made out of desperation to cover your past up as you wish to have a future and leave what you have done behind, correct? Mind you, I hate liars, so please tell me the truth." Kira prompted.

Surprised by Kira's soft words, Stellar almost blurted out an answer, however, she spat out the reply, "How would I know whether you would not kill me after I told you my reason to running to Orb? Besides, you were the one who killed Neo!"

On schedule, the recently married couple, Admiral Murrue Ramius and Colonel Mwu La Fllaga, once known as Neo Lorrnoke, went crashing through the office door with a full squad of security troops.

"What the hell are you doing Kid? Why in heaven's name are you holding a girl at gunpoint. Didn't your parents teach you how to treat ladi- oof!" Mwu grabbed his side as Murrue playfully hit him. Then turning into business mode, Murrue asked, "Though I disapprove of Mwu's words for some part, what are doing? First you practically cause a miniature earthquake in your room then we find you holding one of our two newest troops at gunpoint, the other looks ready to faint and.. Athrun, can you stop holding your nose and start helping instead of groaning!"

Athrun tried to reply but another wave of pain hit him, causing him to groan. Murrue, realizing Athrun's 'problem' decided to let the matter rest and returned her attention to the girl who was held in Kira's grasp. Kira felt the girl go limp in his hand as he noticed her eyes widened to the size of saucers the instant she caught sight of Mwu.

Oh yeah. I almost forgot. Mwu-san is Neo Lorrnoke. Maybe he can help me in asking this girl the questions I want to ask. Kira remembered at the same time Stellar cried out joyfully, "Neo!" (A/N: I really don't know if Stellar ever saw what was beneath Neo's mask. So let's just keep it at her having seen Mr Lorrnoke under the mask before)

Mwu looked at the girl with a weary eye, "No one called by that name in such a manner as Stellar did. Either way, how did you know my old name?"

Knowing full well that she was no longer any threat, Kira let the now absolutely distracted girl go and set her down onto the floor, holstering his gun.

"It's me Neo, I'm Stellar!" Cried the now tearing girl.

"But you.. you died in that explosion. They said Kira stopped you from firing your Destroy gundam's weapons and that you didn't survive the explosion. Anyway, you most definitely don't look like Stellar."" Mwu stuttered, hoping, just hoping that he was wrong, that he still had one of the three pilots he had trained, that Stellar was still alive.

Stellar looked at Mwu, wondering why he didn't recognize her, then she remembered the objects in her eyes, which she had used to hide her identity. She plucked both contact lenses out of her eyes and looked back into Mwu's brownish irises. Mwu let out a gasp of shock and rushed over to Stellar hugging her and crying at the same time. (A/N: You should know what to say in such great reunion cases like this; Aaaww…. Don't forget to cry.)

Murrue gasped as she saw her husband hug the young girl fiercely and Mayu, of whom could not take any more of the situation, fainted. It would not have been so bad if Mayu had not decided to fall into Athrun who was knocked onto the ground and was knocked out as well.

Feeling that his actions might have been a wee bit too much just now, Kira ordered the soldiers who had come with Murrue to take the two unfortunate officers to the infirmary.

Having finished with smothering the happy Stellar, Mwu asked, "How in heaven's name did you survive!"

Stellar's smile faltered, but she forced out her amazing tale of how she came to be still alive from her gritted teeth;

(Stellar's point of view for flashback)

1 week before The Messiah Incident, 9th March, C.E.74..

"I had woken up in a bed after I fell asleep in Shinn's arms, feeling absolutely sore with cuts all over my body. Next to the bed was a woman who looked nice except when she looked into my eyes. Those eyes looked liked they would suck your soul away and turn you into a mindless slave.

She asked how I was doing and whether I felt better, but she was so frightening I couldn't answer.

She noticed the scared look I was giving her and said, "It's the eyes aren't they. They're always scaring people. But you'll get used to it. Either way, I'll tell you more about this place after you get better, welcome to the Destiny Cradle, the fortress of the Soldiers of Destiny."

After she said those words, she left and this weird red-haired girl who had a rather blank blue-eyed look came to me and tend to me, then I fell asleep again.

3 days after The Messiah Incident, 9th March, C.E.74..

I raced down this huge obstacle course which was underground in my Aegis gundam, trying to sho-

Did you just say the Aegis as in Athrun's gundam! Kira cried out.

He was viciously SHUSHED by the Admiral, who gestured for Stellar to continue.

As I was saying, I was trying to shoot down some enemy Goufs with the Aegis along with my squadmates who were piloting the Blitz and-

But I blew the Blitz up!

Quiet Kira Yamato!

Anyway the other gundam was called Sky Grasper if I'm not wrong. After defeating all the mobile suits, Justice turned up an-

(End of Flashback) (A/N: don't ever think I'd reveal too much about the good guy's opponents MWAHAHAHAHA..)

"Kira! Kira! KIIRAA..!" Miriallia came shooting through the office door at a speed that was equal to sound.

In fact, she came in so fast that she sent Stellar flying into a wall when she bowled into the poor girl who didn't get a chance to say another word before she was knocked out.

"What in the name of F,CK,NG Hell is the matter with you Ensign Haww!" Mwu bellowed before receiving a beautiful right hook by an extremely angry Murrue.

"Eh? The you two are here as well?" Miriallia questioned.

Sighing, Kira asked "What is it now Miri."

"Well, the.. the papers of the two pilots who will be joining us from the Empire of Russia just came in.. I thought that you.. you should see it fo.. for yourself Kira." Miriallia's face was a white as snow.

Sensing something amiss, Kira took the paper and looked at the two names and pictures of the pilots.. his body went rigid and went into shock.

Too busy were the other people in the room, who were trying to snap Kira out of it, they didn't see the names on the list..

Tolle Koenig,

Fllay Alster….
