Kira- Ultimate Coordinator
He led a normal life.
He knew he was a Coordinator.
But that didn't bother him.
He had his friends,
He had his family.
What more could he ask for?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
While he was at the moon training,
He met Athrun Zala.
They became the best of friends.
Inseparable, and close as brothers.
Until he had to leave.
But Athrun left a gift.
A bird which he named Tori.
You will join me at PLANTS soon, won't you?
He watched as Athrun left.
Never did he realize that they would soon,
Fight for the opposite enemy.
And from true friends turn out to enemies.
Each bearing vengeance.
Deep in their hearts.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He soon moved to Heliopolis with his family.
He made new friends.
Tolle, Kuzzey, Ssigh, Miriallia.
He even developed a crush on Ssigh's fiancée, Fllay.
He was happy,
Had a good education.
But he didn't know,
In the next few hours,
His life would change forever.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He thought he had seen a boy.
The person just leaned against the wall and stayed silent.
They had some fun,
And suddenly the alarms blared.
ZAFT was attacking?
But why?
The visitor then ran to one side,
And he followed.
And a blast knocked away her cap, revealing her as a girl.
She asked for access to a prohibited area,
And he brought her there.
Only to come face to face with mobile suits.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is where your fate comes in.
Kira Yamato.
Fate never withdraws from a challenge.
But she can toy with it.
If she can, so can I.
How nice would it be,
If I was the one to control your life?
How many killings,
I wonder,
Can I do,
With you as my little puppet,
And I, the master controlling the strings?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He shoved the girl into a shelter and ran to find another shelter.
He then saw that the ZAFT troops and infiltrated the place.
He saw the woman's bewildered face as she saw him.
She shot down a ZAFT troop and saw her take a hit on the shoulder.
By him.
By Athrun.
Athrun…?
As he watched Athrun run to the other gundam, the Aegis,
And the woman took the Strike,
He couldn't help but feel apprehensive.
The woman proved to be an amateur.
Almost using the Strike's foot to squash his friends.
He told her to move aside while he reprogrammed the OS,
With the woman looking both impressed and amazed.
The Strike began to move more efficiently.
He even took down the GINN, but the pilot self destructed it and escaped.
Later, when the woman woke up, she tried to shoot them.
We saved you and this is how you thank us!
I can't let you go; what you just saw was a top- secret military unit. She said.
I can't do anything; I have to release you to the proper authorities.
The ZAFT forces were soon attacking.
Kira then switched to the Launcher pack; Phase shift was reactivated.
He successfully damaged the CGUE that was trying to attack him.
He then retreated to the Archangel where he received bewildered stares from the crew.
A kid? Piloting the Strike? Impossible!
He then met Mwu La Fllaga, the person who would next have a huge impact on his life.
He saw Murrue Ramius try to help him, explaining why she had let him pilot the Strike.
You are a Coordinator, are you not?
He saw his friends shocked expressions, and a worried look in Murrue's face.
Yes…I'm a first generation Coordinator.
He saw the guards raising their guns, prepared to fire.
What do you mean by this! Kira may be a Coordinator, but he's our friend! He saved us and all of you here! Tolle snapped.
Put your guns down, he isn't the enemy! He may be one of the Coordinators moved here to avoid the war, isn't it, Kira? She smiled, looking at him.
He then took a rest, as his friends talked about him.
When Murrue requested for him to join them,
I want no part of this! Leave us out of this!
Archangel has to go to battle soon. You are the only one who can protect the ship as my unit is still under repair.
He had reluctantly agreed to help, and the Strike was equipped with the Sword pack.
He was soon engaged in a battle with the pilot of the GINN that self- destructed itself.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Strike, he destroyed Miguel's unit.
In Strike, he came face to face with Athrun once more.
Ath…Athrun? Why are you here…?
Why are you in that mobile suit! Athrun asked.
In Strike, he watched as Heliopolis broke around him.
In Strike, he was separated from Aegis once more.
In Strike, he retrieved a life pod and brought it back to the Archangel.
In Strike, he wondered if he wanted to fight at all.
In Strike, he watched his friends don EA uniforms, telling him that they wanted to help him.
In Strike, he told Mwu he wanted to fight to protect his friends.
In Strike, he and Mwu used their strategy and successfully damaged the Vesalius.

In Strike, he watched as Miriallia let a thousand origami flowers float out of her arms.

In Strike, he watched as he failed to save Fllay's father.
In Strike, he watched as he returned Lacus Clyne to Athrun, who was in Aegis.
Why don't you come with us, Kira?
I can't…Lacus…I have friends whom I wish to protect onboard the Archangel…
But do you know I will have to shoot you down, Kira? I have to defeat you…
In Strike, he watched as Murrue let him off even though he had violated the rules.
In Strike, he went SEED for the first time.
In Strike, he caused Yzak to get a scar on his face.
In Strike, he watched as Murrue allowed him to leave.
In Strike, he watched as he failed to save the little girl whom he had come to like, with her air of innocence, and her gift of the origami flower to thank him for protecting them.
In Strike, he watched as he plummeted down to Earth, heart and body feeling empty.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Strike, he watched as they landed in the desert.
In Strike, he watched as swore he wouldn't let anyone else die.
In Strike, he watched himself kill in cold- blood.
In Strike, he met the girl whom he had saved in Heliopolis.
In Strike, he watched the disbelief on the resistance fighters' faces, as well as the shocked look on Cagalli's face.
In Strike, he watched as he killed Andrew Waltfelt and Aisha by accident.
In Strike, he watched as Cagalli's Sky grasper was shot down.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Strike, he watched as he was requested to create a Naturals OS for the Astrays.
In Strike, he watched as he killed Nicol, who was in Blitz.
In Strike, he watched as Athrun killed Tolle.
In Strike, he and Athrun went SEED and had a massive battle, in which the Aegis self- destructed.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He woke up and found himself with Lacus Clyne.
Under her care, he gradually regained his health,
But he was thinking,
Brooding over the fact if he ever should kill or not.
When he learned that ZAFT was going to attack Alaska,
He remembered his friends, Murrue- san, Mwu- san, Murdoch…
He wanted to protect them.
And so, upon learning his intentions,
Lacus granted him the Freedom Gundam.
Why did you give this to me?
Because you need it in order to do what you have to do, and that the will and power itself is never enough.
He remembered her words as he sped towards Earth.
Archangel, wait for me. I'm coming!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When he left the atmosphere, he watched as a GINN got ready to fire on the Archangel bridge crew.
No! I won't allow you!
He fire a shot and disabled the GINN.
As he landed in front of the Archangel,
The Freedom Gundam spread its wings.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Freedom, he watched as he battled with the Duel once more, knowing what he really wanted to fight for.
In Freedom, he watched as the Cyclops destroyed the innocent lives.
In Freedom, he watched as Murrue agreed to his request to disallow anyone from touching the Freedom.
In Freedom, he was reunited with his friends once more.
In Freedom, he watched as Mwu became the new pilot of the repaired Strike.
In Freedom, he watched as Orb came under attack from the EAF.
In Freedom, he faced off against the Raider, Calamity and the Forbidden gundams.
In Freedom, he watched as Athrun in the Justice gundam, aided him.

In Freedom, he watched as the Onogoro Island blew up along with Uzumi.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Freedom, he found out that Cagalli was his sister.
In Freedom, he watched as the Dominion fire a volley of missiles at him.
In Freedom, he went SEED once more and destroyed all the missiles.
In Freedom, he learned the truth behind his birth and saved Mwu before Raww killed him.
In Freedom, he watched as he failed to save Fllay.
In Freedom, he watched as ZAFT deployed GENESIS.
In Freedom, he watched as the Strike was destroyed trying to protect the Archangel.
In Freedom, he finished what Mwu had failed to do; to rid of Raww.
Their battle had resulted in Fllay's death, the severely damaged Freedom, and the Providence destroyed.
He cried with relief as he watched Tori fly by, and when his friends came for him.
Kira Yamato had never felt more relieved as he felt the burden free from him.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It had been 2 years since the war ended.
But peace did not last,
For soon, the falling of Junius Seven would trigger another Bloody Valentine.
He never thought that he would soon have to return to the battlefield once more.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kira's POV
Another war.
Another war which will result in bloodshed.
Why is it that Naturals and Coordinators cannot live in peace?
Why must there be a war to settle such trivial matters?
I don't want to fight again…
But I know better.
For soon,
When the time comes.
I will have to join the war again…
But then,
Who will I be fighting for?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It looked like any normal night.
But tonight was the night,
Where he would have to return in Freedom once more,
To protect the woman he loved dearly.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Freedom, he disabled the Asshus before they self- destructed.
In Freedom, he disrupted the forced wedding Cagalli was going through by "kidnapping" her.
In Freedom, he suddenly showed up and disabled the Minerva's Tanhausser.
In Freedom, he watched as Orb turned against Cagalli.
In Freedom, he caused the death of Heine Westenfluss.
In Freedom, he and Athrun fought for the difference sides again.
In Freedom, he watched as Athrun broke his sister's heart.
In Freedom, he protected the shuttle with Lacus in it as she returned to PLANTS.
In Freedom, he brought Miriallia to the Archangel to take her place once more as the Communications officer.
In Freedom, he took down the Chaos.
In Freedom, he went SEED and disabled the Saviour Gundam.
Cagalli's crying right now, and you are destroying the very thing she protects! Why can't you understand her? Why can't you!
Kira…
In Freedom, he watched Cagalli cry in despair and grief.
In Freedom, he wondered why he was fighting Athrun again.
Why am I fighting again?
For Cagalli? For Lacus? For my future?
Is this the world Klueze envisioned?
A world where war never ends, where people cry for their lost ones?
Where people think that the opposite sides is their enemies?
Why can't they be friends?
Why must they be enemies?
If I can be good friends with Miriallia, Murrue- san…
Why can't they?
Why must Klueze be right?
Why?
He pondered over these questions,
Wondering who would give him the answer.
But the answer came from a captain who had been like a mentor, a sister, to him.
You have been fighting so hard, so you must be tired.
I was just thinking…why do I have to fight Athrun again?
Athrun- kun fights to protect the things he cares, like you.
But…
I believe fighting to protect something you love isn't wrong, but sometimes, people just do it the wrong way.
I look forward to the day where both of you will fight side by side again. Until then, try to stay alive, alright?
As Kira pondered over her answer, he realized how right Murrue had been.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Freedom, he watched as the Destroy Gundam wiped out many innocent lives.
In Freedom, he felt a familiar connection to the pilot of the Windam.
In Freedom, he watched the pilot of the Impulse talk to the pilot of the Destroy.
In Freedom, he damaged the Destroy severely.
In Freedom, he watched the man who claimed to be Neo Lorrnoke looked alike like his senpai, Mwu La Fllaga.
In Freedom, he watched as Murrue cried in grief upon learning he didn't remember anything about her.
Mwu- san!
Who is this Mwu?
Neo asked.
He doesn't remember Murrue- san?
It must be hard for the captain…Murdoch had said.
I believe that man is Mwu- san…he just lost his memory…
In Freedom, he found himself defeated by the Impulse.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He had felt lost without the Freedom, as he believed he couldn't protect anyone.
Lacus- sama is coming soon, until then, be patient. Murrue had told him.
He and Athrun were then reunited after he defected from ZAFT.
He was soon informed that the Eternal was under attack.
Worried about Lacus, he took the Strike Booster and headed for the Eternal.
Lacus!
Kira…?
It's you…?
I'm sorry, Waltfelt- san, but I was worried!
Since you're here, go get your new unit!
As soon as he got the Strike Freedom, Kira Yamato knew he could protect the things he loved once more.
In Strike Freedom, he lended a hand to Cagalli, who was in the Akatsuki.
In Strike Freedom, he watched as Infinite Justice took part in the battle.
In Strike Freedom, he faced off against Destiny and Legend.
In Strike Freedom, he watched as Lacus cut into the fake Lacus's transmission.

In Strike Freedom, they realize that Orb would be the next target for Requiem.
In Strike Freedom, he faced against Rey.
Your existence is something that should have never been forgiven!
Can't you guess who I'm?
I'm Raww Le Klueze!
Your life is yours to own! It's not his!
Kira yelled back as he disabled the Legend.
In Strike Freedom, he watched in horror as the Orb fleet was wiped out.
In Strike Freedom, he entered the Messiah to confront Gilbert Dullindal.
"Because in the end, people don't understand anything."
"But we understand that. That we can understand each other and that we're able to change." Kira snapped back.
"That's why we want a future. No matter how painful it is, we don't want an unchanging world!" Kira continued.
"How arrogant of you." Gilbert said. "Just as I expected from the Ultimate Coordinator."
"You're the one who is arrogant. I'm just another person! I'm no different from anyone else! The same goes for Lacus!"
"But, that's why I have to kill you. Because I understand that." Kira spoke again.
"But, between the world you speak of and the world I presented. I wonder which one people desire for? What will you do with the chaotic world once again after you kill me?" Gilbert said, smirking.
"I'm prepared for it. I will fight." Kira finished.
A gunshot rang in the room as he saw Gilbert fall.
The following events made him feel sad, but he couldn't do anything.
But there was one thing he could do…
I have a child. It's a boy. Please tell Captain Ramius to visit him some day.
I will.
As Kira left, he never looked back.
The Ultimate Coordinator was just a title.
But he was Kira Yamato,
Not the Ultimate Coordinator.
He would live his own life the way he had planned it,
Not because he was the Ultimate Coordinator.
Not because Raww promised that he, Kira Yamato, very existence mean that,
The world would forever be plunged into darkness.
