This fic is rated T for language and violence.

It was about 8 A.M. on the ranch that was owned by Kira and Lacus. But this morning would be different.

Way different…

Who really cares? Kira's mind wandered as he sat at the table. Of course, so did his eyes, as could be evidenced by the fact that his best friend was staring at him. "Um… Kira?"

Kira looked across the table to the source of the voice. Sitting on the opposite side was another individual who was around 5'9, and had piercing teal eyes and dark blue hair. His face was usually calm and serene, but Kira's odd behavior was worrying him. He was wearing a black, high-collared jacket that only fully closed in the chest area, with a green turtleneck and gray pants.

Kira was so lost in thought that he didn't even hear his friend the first time. So it was when Athrun called out louder for the fifth time that he looked over. "Athrun, what's wrong?" Kira's face looked slightly red, probably in embarrassment that he had been caught.

Athrun looked across the table at his friend. Even though Kira had been involved in the war, it hadn't really changed him Kira was still the same kind, caring, and thoughtful individual that you could possibly hope to meet. Kira stood about 5'7", with brown hair that was always messy and eyes that were a deep shade of purple-gray. He was wearing a black shirt that had the collar open and folded down. The shirt had black straps on it that were apparently there to hold the sleeves on, as the lower halves were not attached to the shirt. This was with a pair of blue jeans and was very simplistic.

Athrun looked back at Kira and just started laughing. "Hey! I don't see any thing funny here!" this voice belonged to a certain female. As the woman entered the room, Kira was dumbstruck. She looked to be around 5'4" in height, and had Blonde hair that was nearly identical to Kira's. She was wearing a blue tank top with a white mini skirt. "You… You're a girl!"

The woman then ran over to Kira and swiftly smacked him upside the head. "Of course I'm a girl! I am your sister, after all!" Athrun was totally clueless. "Cagalli, could you please explain what's going on here?"

The pair turned to face Athrun, and Kira began to speak. "It's a joke!" Athrun was dumbfounded. "A joke?" Cagalli elaborated, "The first time that we met, Kira thought that I was a boy…" "And when you attacked at Heliopolis, her hat fell off, and I realized that I had been trying to protect a she and not a he," Kira finished.

Athrun looked confused for a moment longer, but then, as with all things odd, the light came on. "Hmm… Yeah. I get it," he said, very sarcastically.

"Okay, you! No need to be an ass!" When he turned to face Cagalli, he found out that she and Kira both were bright red, and ready to kill him.

"Um… I'm… sorry!" was all he could say before he got the glomping of a lifetime.

In a laboratory hidden under a mountain…

"You can come in now ma'am." Upon hearing this, a woman who appeared to be in her late twenties stood up. She was obviously in the military at one time, as she was standing in such a way as so to not look like a total civilian. She was wearing a blue denim jacket over a white blouse with a pair of blue jeans. Her hair and eyes were both beautiful shades of brown, and her fair skin indicated a woman who took care of herself.

"How did it go?" she asked very calmly, but her darting eyes gave away the fact that she was quite nervous. "It was a complete success. Those few pieces of hair that we were lucky enough to extract from the lining of the helmet allowed us to do this."

They walked for what to the woman seemed like hours until they got to what looked like a military hospital. "Sorry, ma'am. I have to leave now." The soldier snapped to attention, saluted, turned, and marched off.

The woman looked at the names on the wall, and then proceeded to walk past five rooms before deciding to run the remainder of the way to the last door. She opened the door, entered the room, and her face lit up. Sitting up, in a hospital bed, looking quite dazed, was a very familiar blonde head of hair.

Back at the ranch…

Kira was completely off in another world. He had just spent the past six hours trying to explain to Athrun why the hitting and 'you're a girl'-line was all a joke. It was just plain silly. He had tried and tried, but he couldn't get it through to Athrun that it was all just a big joke. So he was mentally exhausted.

In another part of the house Athrun and Cagalli were too busy making out to care about the movie they had been watching, and they didn't even notice when Lacus Clyne walked into Kira's room, and… A.n./- hahahahahahahaha! You thought that it was gonna get perverted! All you hentai's out there, Boo Ya! I really can't write stuff like that and put it up.

Back in the lab…

"How do you feel?"

The woman was sitting in one of the two chairs in the room. Across from her was a man who appeared to be in his early thirties, with Prussian blue eyes and Blonde hair. He was now wearing a pair of blue jeans, a white t-shirt, over which he wore a two-tone blue vest, with the collar turned up.

"I'm fine. And how are you these days?"

"I'm getting along." She then began to get tears in her eyes. "Mu… when the Strike…"

"Hey. I told you. I'm the guy that can make the impossible possible, remember?"

"Yes, but how…"

She was silenced when Mu leaned in and kissed her.

"Listen," Mu said, "I'll stay with you forever. Simply for the reason that I love you."

The woman was shocked. "What did you say?"

Mu looked back down at her and smiled.

"I said I love you, Murrue Ramias."

The pair just stood there for several moments, not moving, just sharing a fond embrace. They then left the room and Murrue signed Mu out of the ward, and they headed off to their destination.

Kira stared up at the ceiling. He was bored out of his mind, and the only other person in the room knew it. It had been two months since he had married the love of his life, Lacus Clyne.

"Kira, what's wrong?" Kira looked towards the source of the voice. The question had come from a girl who appeared to be about 5'8" in height, with long, pink hair that was very well taken care of, and the most beautiful Periwinkle eyes that Kira had ever seen. She was wearing a light pink t-shirt, nasume, and in her hair was a gold hairclip.

"Nothing's wrong," he lied. "Why would you think that? Lacus is something bothering you?" Lacus looked back at Kira and smiled. "No. But I was beginning to think that you are not happy living here with me."

"Lacus, don't be silly. I love living here. I don't know what would make you think otherwise."

"Well, Kira, it's just…" Tears began to well up in her eyes. Kira looked over just as she was about to collapse. But instead of collapsing, she ran over to him and held on to him as tightly as she could. "It's just that every time you leave, I fear that you could be killed."

Kira's eyes widened with the realization that he could be killed every time he stepped out of the door, and he returned the hug that he was being given and ran his hand through her flowing pink hair in an attempt to calm her down. "Lacus… I… don't want you to worry about me. I've been through hell before, and I seriously think that I can handle anything that life can throw at me."

"Are you sure, Kira?" Lacus looked up at him with a look that would tell any guy that he should brace himself.

"Lacus, what's going on?" Kira knew that he was about to get a shock, and he wasn't really sure how bad it was going to be.

"Kira…" she was hesitating.

"What is it, Lacus?" Kira was ready for anything now.

"… I'm pregnant." Lacus began to cry again.

"Don't cry, Lacus," he reassured her as he put his hand under her chin, lifting her face up to look at his own. "It's okay. We did get married two months ago. And there are plenty of good doctors around who know about things like this. We'll be alright."

Lacus stopped crying long enough to say, "Really?"

Kira looked back at her reassuringly, and answered. "Yes, Lacus, I'm sure. And I will protect you. I promise."

Lacus leaned in closer to him, and the couple shared a tender kiss, while Athrun and Cagalli watched from the doorway.

To Be Continued…

A.n.\ - well? I know that I'm totally trashing a lot of the characters in these fics, but I have seen worse fics out there! Like has anybody noticed the slew of yaoi and yuri fics out there? That can make many people loose their lunch. And as for Mu's resurrection, I am the author, so I can do that.

N.e.hoo, this is my first SEED fic, so please don't kill me over it. And no. I probably won't put up a prequel. So sorry to all of you out there who would want that.
