Lacus- Silent hopes
She led a happy life.
Lived in her world surrounded by Haros and music.
Content to be by her father's side,
And be the princess she was.
Made a memorial representative to the fall of Junius Seven.
Lacus Clyne could be called naïve,
But she stuck to her dreams firmly,
A dream in which the world would be at peace.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On her way to commemorate the victims of Junius Seven,
Her ship had some problems.
She was ejected from the ship in the lifepod.
And surprisingly, saved by the pilot of Strike.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
She was shocked to find out she was on an EA ship,
And not a one from ZAFT.
But she thanked them for saving her.
She then saw a fierce looking woman order the people to go back to work.
But by then,
She had taken interest in a certain brown- haired pilot.
She waved to him as he walked away.
She openly admitted that she was the daughter of the Supreme Chairman.
And she hoped that the EAF had decided to stop fighting.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Archangel, she realized that the Natural Fllay didn't like her.
In Archangel, she realized that she was a potential target for the EAF.
In Archangel, she realized that she had probably no chance of going back to ZAFT.
In Archangel, she realized that Kira was a Coordinator.
In Archangel, she lived in her own world as the battleship when into battle status.
In Archangel, she watched as the Natural Fllay and Natarle used her to get the enemy to back down.
She watched as Fllay threatened to kill her unless they backed off from her father's ship.
But the ZAFT still destroyed her father's ship.
During the moment, Lacus couldn't understand the feeling she momentarily felt.
It was an unmistakable feeling of fear.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Later, after the battle ended,
She saw Kira crying,
She asked him what the matter was and wiped away his tears.
She realized that Athrun was his best friend and he didn't want to hurt him.
She realized that Athrun made his Tori as well.
And she watched in amazement as he told her he was returning her to ZAFT.
And she watched as Kira said that he had friends he wanted to protect,
As he refused to go with her and Athrun.
Again, Lacus didn't know why,
But suddenly, she felt very attached to him.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On board the Vesalius, she watched as Athrun told her he was fighting a war and had no time to smile.
On board the Vesalius, she thought of Kira.
As they neared PLANTS, Athrun told her she had to go back. He had felt bad, but he still left her.
She thanked Raww and told Athrun she hoped to see him soon.
She later asked herself what they were fighting for, as that question made the war very difficult.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Later, when Athrun dropped by her house, she talked to him about Kira and Tori.
She told Athrun things must be hectic at ZAFT.
She silently longed to see Kira again, with his childish air around him.
But she didn't to expect to see him so beaten.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As he woke up after the destruction of the Strike, he saw her first.
As time went by, he slowly recovered.
She listened as he told her of how his hands were stained with the people he had killed.
And she told him he had probably saved many people and took him to eat something.
Then she watched as he reacted violently when told that the target for Operation Spit- break was Alaska, not Panama.
She realized he had friends there, and he wanted to help them.
She knew what she did next would brand her as a traitor to ZAFT,
But she didn't regret it.
She gave him a ZAFT uniform and taught him the regulations.
She then brought him to the hangar where the Freedom was.
Why…why are you giving me this?
Because I believe you will need it to do the things you want and having the will and power itself isn't enough.
He thanked her, and she watched as he took off.
I gave you the Freedom…because I want to give you the freedom you desperately needed…
Shortly after that, she was officially branded a traitor.
Her home was destroyed, and she went to the auditorium where she sang in front of the crowds.
There, she confronted Athrun.
If I was your enemy, would you shoot me, Athrun Zala of ZAFT!
She watched as Athrun looked shocked, unable to answer, looking more shocked when she told him Kira lived.
What do you fight for?
For the medals that you are awarded? Or your father's order?
But in the end, he still protected her, as she walked away with Martin DaCosta.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Later, she used a private transmission to speak against Patrick Zala.
And later, as she set off from her hiding place, she did not realize yet that her father had died.
Later, she hijacked the Eternal.
And was reunited with Kira, and wept in his arms as she told him about her father's death.
Even as he comforted her, Lacus could not help but feel guilty.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Onboard the Eternal, she watched as he mistook her for a girl he had sworn to protect.
Onboard the Eternal, she watched as he vowed he would never cry again.
Its okay to cry when you feel like it.
After all, isn't that why all humans cry? She had asked.
He had looked at her with surprise.
She watched his eyes fill up, and he cried on her lap.
She watched as well when he finally fell asleep, the remaining tears floating around.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
She watched with horror as a new weapon was unleashed.
Genesis.
She watched as it wiped out the Moon base.
As she got the Clyne Faction ready to move out, she gave Kira a ring.
Please bring this back to me…
I will…that's a promise…
She watched with fear as the Freedom and the Providence engage in a battle.
One that seemed to leave the Freedom destroyed.
But the fear turned to relief upon seeing him again.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The second Bloody Valentine war had started.
But this time, they were neutral.
She watched with Kira as the remains of Junius Seven came crashing down to Earth.
Later, as they evacuated to the shelters, she saw the panicked faces of the children.
Lacus hugged them close, and sang.
konna ni tsumetai tobira no fukaku de
anata wa hitori de nemutteru…
The children raised their heads and looked at her as she sang.
Meanwhile a fragment of Junius Seven flew overhead and crashed onto the ground, spreading destruction.
Inori no utagoe…
A building nearby was destroyed into nothing but splinters…
More fragments flew ahead…
Sabishii nohara wo…
The fragments landed on the seas and grassy plains…
Chiisana hikari ga terashiteta
Auel, Sting and Stellar watched from the space, with Stellar asking if they were going to die.
Anata no yume wo miteta
Stellar's eyes only reflected more fear…
Kodomo no you ni waratteta
Fragments after fragments crashed onto buildings and wiping them out totally.
Natsukashiku…
More fragments crashed down…
Mada tooku…
The fragments continued to fly above like shooting stars…
Sore wa mirai no yakusoku…
Another fragment slammed into a statue…
Itsuka midori no asa ni
A tsunami dove straight towards a city…
Itsuka tadorisukeru to
Djibril sat down and stroked his cat, watching the destruction unfold…
Fuyugareta kono sora wo shinjiteiru kara…
Fields of hope…
Fields of hope…
Fields of hope…
Gilbert Dullindal sat there…watching the destruction as well…
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Shortly after that, Athrun came to visit.
It was clear that he was troubled.
But Lacus had other things to worry about.
Less than a few weeks after she moved into Andrew's home,
There was an attempt on her life.
And that was when she watched as the Freedom took to the skies again.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Later, they "kidnapped" Cagalli from her wedding.
And they tricked the fake Lacus by impersonating as her, and she watched with sadness as she left the Freedom.
Later, she received word that Kira's gundam had been destroyed.
The Eternal was also found out, and they were forced to escape.
Help came in the form of Strike and Kira.
Lacus was happy to see him, and so was he.
As she brought him to the Strike Freedom, she could not help but feel apprehensive.
Later, as he successfully disabled the ZAKUs and GOUFs as well as the Nazca ships,
And returned to her,
As she clutched tightly to the book containing the Destiny Plan.
Both traded a smile as they made their way to Earth.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
She then rode in the Infinite Justice and broke off to help the Archangel while Kira when to help the Akatsuki.
She then asked Athrun how he was and if he was ready to fight in the Infinite Justice once more.
She stopped Murrue from preventing Athrun from going out.
She later than cut into Meer Campbell's broadcast, who was the fake Lacus.
The shock on the fake Lacus face was no doubt of horror.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
But even she had her share of happy moments,
Lacus Clyne never denied that she had partially been the reason why her father had died.
But this time, she never realized that she would soon cause the death of another person.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
She watched as Meer died to save her.
Meer's blood staining her clothes.
Lacus read her diary and was shocked by the contents.
As she grieved over Meer's death,
With Kira comforting her.
Lacus Clyne could not deny that,
Hopes that were silent would never be realized.
Because her hand had been stained by the death of two people she had learned to care for.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
