The war was finally over. The Archangel had landed safely on earth. Kira and the others had gotten out and felt the warm touch of sunlight. The world was at peace once again. But even though they were all together, Kira knew they all had to say good bye. He held Lacus' hand and left. Athrun and Cagalli wee the second couple to leave. Then, Shinn and Lunamaria left. Finally, Miriallia pushed Dearka in a wheelchair and left. Mwu and Murrue stayed by the Archangel for a while. Then, they left. A few hours later, Shinn and Lunamaria were walking through a cemetary. Luna was holding a bouquet of flowers. She had a few tears in her eyes. Shinn managed to wipe a few a of them away. Then they stopped and turned to a grave that said "Meyrin Hawke: A devoted sister, a true hero." She dropped the flowers in front of the gravestone.

"You know...Meyrin was always a whiner.."

Shinn turned to Lunamaria after she said that.

"She and I...always settled things with a competition."

"Lunamaria..."

More tears formed in her eyes.

"I still remember the day she died."

"..."

"It was on a ZAFT ship."

Flashback

Lunamaria and Meyrin were volunteers on the mission to infiltrate a ZAFT spaceship. They snuck aboard the ship, disguised as ZAFT soldiers. They both made a break for it to the main computer, passing several soldiers. Lunamaria looked out for ZAFT soldiers, while Meyrin attempted to turn on the selfdestruct system. Suddenly, the alarm started. The whole room started to glow red.

"Damn! They found me!"

"What!"

Two soldiers ran in. Meyrin and Lunamaria took cover, as they started shooting.

"What do we do, Luna?"

"We fight back."

Lunamaria pulled out her gun and started shooting back. She killed both of them and the made a break for the escape pod. They were being chased by dozens of soldiers. Then, they entered the room that held the escape pods. She and her sister took cover. The soldiers started shooting. Lunamaria shot back, only killing about five before her gun ran out of ammo. She then grabbed Meyrin and quickly ran toward the escape pod, though a bullt and enter Meyrin's lower back. She screamed in pain.

"MEYRIN!"

Lunamaria picked up the barely alive Meyrin and headed toward the escape pod. She then lauched straight toward the Archangel.

"Hold on, Meyrin! We're almost there! Just try to stay awake!"

"I'm sorry...Luna...I don't think I can make...it. T-Tell...Athrun that...I'm sorry...and...I...love himmmmmmmm..."

Meyrin entered her eternal slumber, never waking up ever again.

"MEYRIN!"

Lunamaria cried for her little sister. Tears fell to the ground.

End Flashback

Shinn put his hand on Lunamaria's shoulder. He embraced her and let her cry on his shoulder. Luna returned the embrace.

"Luna...it's okay to cry..."

She looked up at Shinn. Her tears disappeared into the sun. They both let go of eachother. Shinn knelt down and showed Lunamaria a tiny box. It was revealed to be a ring with a ruby engraved into it.

"I know this may be a bad time for this but I must ask you this really important now."

"Shinn..."

"Lunamaria...I love you. I've loved you since the day I met you."

Shinn hesitated with the question he was about to ask.

"Lunamaria...will you marry me?"

Lunamaria smiled and said, "YES! I will!"

She then embraced Shinn and pushed him down to the ground with her arms around him.

"Okay...okay...you don't have to give me a heart attack."

Meanwhile, at a nearby hospital, Dearka was resting in a bed with Miriallia beside him. She was looking down upon him. She smiled at him and he smiled back.

"You know, Mir, this reminds me of the time we first met. You know, with me in the bed and you standing there about to kill me."

Miriallia blushed a little.

"Yeah...about that. I'm sorry."

"It's okay...I accepted your apology ages ago."

Flashback

Dearka was being held prisoner. He was lying on the bed with his hands tied. Suddenly, he heard voices. They were none other then Sai and Miriallia. As soon as Sai left Miriallia, she sat down, thinking of her dead boyfriedn, Tolle.

"Hey Doctor!"

Mir's eyes widened and turned to see Dearka. He just stared at her and she staggered back. Having fear of him because he was from ZAFT, she just stared at him.

"What's with that face? Am I that scary? Do I look that unique?"

There was still no response from her. Dearka got up a little.

"It's okay. I'm tied securely. See?"

He showed her the rope around his hands. She still didn't respond. Sweat dripped down her face.

"But...you're crying again?"

He laid back down.

"Why is a girl like you on a ship like this?"

Tears formed in Miriallia's eyes.

"Why don't you just throw away your uniform if you're scared?"

Miriallia caught a glimpse of a knife. She walked toward it and grabbed it.

"Right? Or maybe your dumb, natural boyfriend croaked or something?"

All of a sudden, a shadow appeared over him. He quickly opened his eyes and dodged the knife with his quick reflexes. He stared at her with a confused look in his eye.

"Hey! What the hell is your problem, bitch!"

Miriallia just stared at him, angrily. She picked up the knife and jumped at Dearka. He fell back, causing everything to fall. A little bit of blood fell to the ground. Miriallia got back up on her feet. Sai managed to open the door, only to be surprised at what he saw.

"Miriallia!"

"Let me go!"

Fllay then entered the room.

"Calm down, Mir!"

Sai had his arms raised under Miriallia's.

"Tolle...Tolle's gone! Why is a guy like this...!"

Dearka managed to wake up.

"Why is a bastard like this still here!"

Dearka just stared at her. Fllay's eyes widened. She then had flashbacks of her and Kira. She found a gun, picked it up, and aimed it at Dearka.

"Fllay!"

She shook a little.

"Bastards like you...DESERVE TO DIE!"

Miriallia's eyes widened. She ran toward Fllay. She leapt up and pushed the gun up, breaking some glass. She pushed Fllay to the ground. She was still crying.

End Flashback

"I have to admit, I was an ass back then."

Miriallia nodded.

"But...why did you save me back then?"

She was silent for a few seconds.

"Because...you remind me of Tolle."

Dearka just smiled. Miriallia blushed.

Meanwhile, Mwu and Murrue were at Murrue's house. They were on the balcony staring at the sun. Mwu turned to Murrue.

"You know, honey, it's been a long time since we've seen the sunset together."

Murrue nodded. The scene was silent for the next few moments, until Mwu broke it.

"Remember that time when we first met?"

"Yes. It seems not so long ago."

Flashback

Murrue Ramius was 17-year-old high school graduate. She was happy that she was finally finished with school. She rushed outside to tell her parents, but they weren't there. They were never there for her, but she didn't care because she loved them so much. So she started to rush to her next destination. Meanwhile, a blonde haired young man was on his way to the earth military headquarters. He was rushing towards there, trying not to be let.

"CRAP! I can't be late for the first meeting!"

He ran and ran and ran, until he collided with Murrue. A few seconds later, he got up and pulled his hand out.

"I'm sorry...were you headed somewhere?"

She looked up at the young man's face and thought to herself, 'God he's so hot!'. She reached up and grabbed the young man's hand.

"Yeah...I applied for a job at the Earth Military..."

She blushed uncontrollably.

"What's your name?"

"Murrue Ramius."

The young man smiled.

"My name's Mwu La Fllaga. Just call me Mwu."

The two smiled at eachother and left the scene, together.

End Flashback

"Those days just seem like distant memories." said Mwu

Murrue just smiled.

"That was the day I first fell in love with you."

Mwu smiled and kissed her on the lips. She ended up returning it. Meanwhile, Cagalli and Athrun were back at ORB, in the park. The two of them were kissing eachother on the lips for what seemed like an eternity. Cagalli then broke the kiss for a breathe of air.

"And how many times have we done this, Athrun?"

"ummm, around 45 times."

They both smiled at eachother. Athrun reached his hand out and touched her face. Cagalli just closed her eyes as she felt Athrun's hand touch her smooth skin. He leaned in for another kiss. Cagalli, gladly returned it. She then broke the kiss and smiled.

"Remember the time we first kissed?"

Athrun nodded.

Flashback

Athrun pulled Cagalli with a surprised look. He was shocked after what she had just told him.

"Sortie? Strike Rouge?"

"What? I've recieved training to pilot a mobile suit. My skills are better then those Astray guys."

"It's not that...but..." said Athrun, with worry in his voice.

Cagalli turned to lookoutside.

"What we hope for...what we want...and what must do...are all the same for everyone, isn't it? Athrun...Kira...Lacus...and me too."

"Cagalli..."

"There are things that can't be solved, even if we go to war."

Cagalli smiled.

"But...we have to do it now, don't we?"

Athrun just stared at her.

"Don't make that kind of expression."

She pulled her hand away from Athrun.

"You look more dangerous than I do."

She narrowed her eyes.

"I won't let you die."

"Cagalli?"

"Even that guy, who may be my younger brother."

Athrun gave her a look of confusion.

"Younger brother? Isn't he your older brother?"

Cagalli raised her eyebrow.

"No way! He's the younger one!"

Athrun smiled at her.

"That might be."

Her eyes widened as Athrun pulled her into an embrace.

"It's fortunate that I met you, Cagalli."

Cagalli blushed.

"Athrun?"

They looked into eachother's eyes.

"I will protect you."

The two leaned their heads in for a kiss.

End Flashback

Cagalli looked up into Athrun's eyes.

"I'll always remember that time, Athrun."

"So will I..."

They smiled and kissed eachother, again. Meanwhile, Kira and Lacus were at the beach, staring at the sunset, together.

"I...kept the crane you gave me seven years ago."

Kira pulled out the paper crane, which was still in perfect condition. Lacus smiled at him and stared straight into his violet orbs of life. Kira stared the girl of his dreams. They both moved closer and closer, until their lips collided. This kiss was the most passionate of all kisses. Kira broke the kiss. He found a star shaped blossum, picked it up, and placed it next to her cresent clip.

"There, now you truly look beautiful, not that you didn't look beautiful before."

Lacus laughed a little.

"It's okay Kira. I love you to."

Kira smiled.

They both then stared back into the sunset.

"Lacus?"

"Yes Kira?"

Kira turned to Lacus.

"Remember that time...when I entered the battle at Jachin Due."

Lacus nodded.

Flashback

"Kira!"

Lacus floated into Kira's arms, holding something.

"Lacus..."

They both looked at Athrun, who smiled. The door between them closed. Lacus struggled a little.

"Here..."

She let out her hand, which had a silver ring on it. He slowly took the ring from her and stared at it for a few seconds. Then his eyes widened. Lacus just stared at him. He then walked out the door with Lacus.

"Thank you."

"Please come back." said Lacus, with worry in her voice. Kira gave her a confused look.

"To me...again..."

Kira nodded. The door opened. Kira was about to go through.

"Kira."

Kira hesitated for a few seconds, then smiled at Lacus. Her eyes were filled with worry and sadness. Kira leaned gave her a kiss on the cheek.

"You be careful too, Lacus."

Kira turned around and left.

"Kira!"

Kira disappeared from the scene. Lacus was about to chase after him, but chose not to. She hoped that she would see him again.

End Flashback

Lacus had her head rested on Kira's shoulder. He lifted his hand and put it around Lacus' waist, and there they remained.
