Chapter Fourteen

Reunion

Small Park area

Lacus waited for the end but it never came as she felt herself be tackled off the podium as she fell to the ground, when she hit the ground she felt as if she was in someone's arms and they were rolling. As the figure got her out of the way in time, he hit the ground and rolled to a few trees that were near by, they covered them front and back as they were thick.

Yzak and Dearka were confused and then furious.

When they came to a stop Lacus opened her eyes only to have her heart beat quicken. She looked up and saw the lavender eyes she had been hoping and longing to see again.

Kira moved as quickly as possible to the area, he was able to avoid all of Patrick's security teams, he arrived from one of the side allies and she the carnage that was left behind. Kira looked desperately around for Lacus as he saw her standing near the podium, he watched as a masked figure was approaching her, he couldn't see the face but he recognized the weapon, Kira then knew it was official the leader had betrayed him, as the figure stopped Kira used his speed and knocked Lacus straight of the stage, Yzak fired the shot but it had missed both figures and he was just as confused as Dearka was as he was watching everything through the scope.

Kira hit the ground making sure he would not harm her and then rolled to the spot where he would have the most cover for the moment, he knew where one was Dearka would not be far behind and he had the advantage, as they stopped in the spot Kira looked down at her as his heart was also beating, but when she opened her eyes he didn't see fear, he knew she saw his face before, but there was no fear, if anything it was relief.

They started at each other for a second and Lacus knew who it was, she remembered him well, her heart was going crazy and she couldn't understand this feeling, she was speechless until he spoke.

"Are you alright? Are you shot?" Kira asked as he stared into her eyes.

Lacus stared at him, and she detected the concern in his voice, "I…I think I'm fine," she replied as she saw him look relieved.

Kira smiled, "Please stay down," Kira told her softly.

Lacus didn't know why but she started to blush, she loved seeing his smile and she had many things to ask but it would have to wait.

Yzak got over his shock pretty quickly as he replayed the moment in his head, and it registered to Yzak, he remembered the color and the man and he smiled widely.

Yzak moved into a better position, and it was finally time to have his revenge.

"Isn't this interesting, hot shot is betraying the leader, I guess that is why I have taken over your job!" Yzak shouted out.

Kira and Lacus were now in a sitting position as Kira took hold of his rifle in a defensive stance, Lacus was listening to everything she heard that he somehow betrayed who they were working for.

Kira knew Yzak's weapon could tare this tree apart so he had to find a better location, but he remembered that Dearka had to be in some elevated location.

"Not talking to me, well it doesn't matter," Yzak said as he opened fire.

The shots were concise and they were hitting every location around them and the tree.

Kira and Lacus heard the shots and Kira used instinct and covered her in his arms, Lacus felt him put his arms around her and she felt a peace she had never felt before, Kira regained his senses, and was a little shocked he did this, but he would not let her die.

Kira felt her relax in his arms, but there cover was being torn apart, Kira released her with one arm and took hold of his rifle and blindly stuck it out from the tree and opened fire, he moved it with his hand firing in every single direction where Yzak could have been.

Yzak saw the fire and had to stop as he took cover behind a car, Dearka knew well of the tree and had his sights set on it.

Kira knew Yzak stopped firing, and he didn't stop but he looked at Lacus.

"If you want to live, come with me," Kira told her as he was almost out of his last rifle clip.

Lacus looked up at him as he still had an arm around her, Lacus somehow knew she could trust him; Lacus looked into his eyes, and nodded yes.

Kira was glad she agreed, "Thank you, now we have to leave this area, we will make our way to the car towards the right, stay by my side and keep your head down," Kira told her.

Lacus nodded her head, "Alright," she said as Kira stood up.

Lacus stood up and he placed his one arm around her again, with about ten shots left Kira gave the signal.

"Let's go," Kira said as they made there break towards the one car by the opposite way where Yzak was.

Lacus did as Kira told her but he still kept her out of sight from Yzak, Kira didn't stop firing as they ran and Yzak couldn't make a shot, but Dearka had perfect sight. Kira was covering Lacus but Dearka could see Kira perfectly, Dearka timed out his movements and when they were near the car he fired.

Kira didn't know where Dearka was, but that soon changed after he fired, Kira's rifle ran out and he let it drop to his side, Kira didn't hear Dearka's shot, but being the ultimate coordinator he heard it as it was approaching. Kira then put both arms around Lacus as he threw them both forward, and the shot connected with the car. Dearka frowned as that was the first target he ever missed, he looked for another shot but they were out of sight.

Kira had to throw Lacus and himself down hard, Kira moved himself up and he looked down at her as she was not letting him go, she holding him to tight, and it made him feel different.

"I'm sorry, I had to do it," Kira said as he placed a comforting hand on her face.

Lacus felt the same thing she felt that night, the warmth and gentleness of his touch, and she didn't want him to release it, Lacus looked up at him and gave him her smile, "Thank you for this," she said as Kira could fainted, she didn't seem to care that he was sent to kill her before.

Kira wanted to speak again, but Yzak wouldn't allow it, as soon as Kira stopped firing he got a little bit closer and opened fire again, this time it was tearing the car apart.

Kira once again covered her protectively as both of there heads went down, Kira then heard Yzak speak.

"You know how long I have waited for this, you always being better than me, the humiliation I suffered from you," Yzak said as he removed his mask, "This scar you gave me, now the mighty warrior has fallen all for the sake of a girl!" Yzak shouted at him as he fired again.

Lacus heard every word, he was giving up everything he was for her sake, she looked up at Kira and saw that the man's words didn't effect his eyes at all; it was as if he had no regrets. Lacus didn't know why but he they were to die here she would be glad to have died with him.

Kira of course was not going to have that, he removed one arm from Lacus and placed it on his second lethal grenade, he popped the pin out and threw it towards Yzak, Yzak was to happy to see that as he ran to an opening and dived behind a tree, the grenade exploded but since Kira threw it practically blind it did no harm.

Kira looked down at Lacus, "Let's go," he said as she wasted no time and moved again.

Kira made sure she was out of sight as they made there way towards the ally, but Yzak recovered again, and once again opened fire causing them to hold there pursuit behind another car. After Dearka fired the last shot, Kira was able to scan the area and he knew where he would be, just by looking, and his guess was right, Kira made sure that Dearka would have no shots. Kira was right as they were covered by a small building in Dearka's sight and he was getting flustered.

Yzak was running low on his second box, and started moving closer again; Kira knew they were finished if he didn't do something so he was going to do something risky.

Kira looked at Lacus, "Listen, I'm going to try something if it fails it will at least by you some more time, if I go down take that ally to…" Kira was about to say but Lacus cut him off.

"No, we will both escape," Lacus said sternly as she didn't know why it came out like that.

Kira was shocked as he looked at her, he loved the look she gave and he smiled, "Than I guess I will have to make this work," Kira said as he removed his Socom, Kira let go of Lacus as he crept around to the side of the car, he had only one chance at this, Kira readied himself as he jumped sideways out from the car.

Yzak was looking in the other direction, but as he saw that he aimed his weapon again and fired.

Kira was sideways, but he aimed his weapon and fired, but as he did Kira had to change the angle as Yzak fired at the same time, Kira's shot's connected with Yzak's SAW and forced him to drop it, Kira was aiming for his head, but Yzak moved faster than he thought, Yzak got one shot off and it gazed Kira's shoulder, Kira hit the ground in a bad position.

Yzak was extremely upset that his SAW was no damaged, but he pulled out his USP and aimed, but as he did Kira was aiming as well as he was making his way back to the car and both fired as the shots just barley missed each other.

Yzak went for cover again as Kira made his way back to Lacus. Kira crawled around and saw Lacus with a very fearful look on her face; she looked horrified at what Kira just done.

Lacus watched everything and it scared her to death as that was a close call; she was relieved as Kira made his way back to her.

"We have to move now, once were out of here it should be easier," Kira told her softly.

Lacus looked at him, and agreed.

Yzak was waiting for Kira to show himself again, but this time he had a little surprise, Yzak had his hand on his grenade.

Kira and Lacus stood up halfway and were about to make there move, Kira had one hand on her and the other on his weapon; they had to do this now.

Kira looked at her, "Now," Kira said as Lacus nodded and they made there break for the ally, Kira fired several shots towards Yzak's direction as Yzak moved the other way not firing his handgun, he wanted to wait for the right moment.

Kira and Lacus made it to the ally and they were running towards the end of it when Yzak appeared.

Kira looked back and was surprised he wasn't firing when he saw what was in his hand; Kira knew this was a short ally and they would have no room for escape.

Yzak smiled as he popped the pin out and threw it, Kira aimed his weapon and fired as it struck Yzak straight in the shoulder, the grenade was well in the air, as Kira and Lacus tried there best to get to the end.

Kira knew they weren't going to make it as he saw that one of the buildings had a semi open doorway, Kira saw the grenade land a few feet away as he took her in both of his arms and they made a dive for that door way, the grenade however then exploded.

Yzak fell to the ground as the bullet hit him and he looked on, as one member of the security forces approached him.

"Sir I have orders from the leader, he wants you two out of this area at once," the man said.

Yzak looked at him, "I have to see him dead."

"The leader wants you out now sir, we will handle the rest," the man said.

Yzak didn't like it but he went with the man as he didn't want to risk losing his new position.

Half a mile from the small park

Athrun was doing his best to keep Cagalli away and he was glad they ran into that road block. Patrick's guards assisted them and were not letting them through at all.

"Why can't we go any further? I have to see this singing," Cagalli said as Athrun looked at her.

They were standing here for awhile now, and Athrun knew that it had to be because Kira started. Athrun felt guilty about knowing her father was about to get killed, but he had to follow this through, and he was finding it more difficult to.

They were waiting here and then when Kira started making his escape they could hear echoes of gunfire and explosions.

"What is going on up there?" Kisaka asked.

Athrun looked confused that was not the spot Uzumi was in, it was the spot that Lacus was speaking to the press, and then it hit him, "No, you didn't do it father," Athrun said to himself as he knew if Patrick broke his word to Kira it would not be good.

The guard looked at all of them, "I have orders not to let anyone pass."

"What about us?" Nicol said as he showed them id.

"Not even the Zala squad can proceed, until I get orders no one passes," the guard said.

Cagalli grew angry, "It sounds like a war up there, my father is there."

"I have my orders Miss, no one passes," the guard said.

Cagalli grew angrier and walked forward only to have the weapon pointed at her.

"No one passes," the guard said as Athrun stepped in front of her.

"That is unnecessary, I will handle it," Athrun told him.

The guard back down, as Cagalli looked at him.

"This is not the area your father is in, I'm sure its something else," Athrun said.

"Lacus is in that area though, she is my friend," Cagalli said.

Athrun looked at her, "This is all the authority I have, we will have to wait it out."

Cagalli knew he spoke the truth and agreed.

Athrun really wanted to know what was going on up there, and it worried him.

Zala Plant

Patrick and Rau arrived early that day just to watch what they could of the event, Patrick was anxious for results, he wanted three people dead today, and one being his main weapon for the past two years. Rau came in and joined him as they sat down and watched the broadcast, they saw Lacus on one station and the main conference on another, Patrick knew that Kira would arrive first so they were tuned in to the station with Siegel and Uzumi, as they began there speech Patrick glared and then as he saw there faces go upward and the cameras suddenly go down they smiled.

"It appears it is happing sir," Rau said.

Patrick smiled, "I have people on the ground that will give us the rest of the report, lets see what is going on over with that girl."

Rau smiled as Patrick switched stations but had his phone on ready for the news of both Uzumi and Kira.

They turned on the station with Lacus and then waited for the call.

After about fifteen minutes the call came, it rang and Patrick hit the speaker.

"Zala here," Patrick said.

"Sir, our unit has just arrived on scene," the man said as the unit loyal to Patrick finally arrived at the scene, the fallen Clyne members called for back up, but they waited as long as possible and they had there report.

"I take it that it's complete," Patrick said.

The man hesitated, "Actually sir, I am starring at the Orb leader as we speak and he has not even a scratch on him."

Patrick looked at the phone, "What are you saying, what about him is he gone!" Patrick shouted.

"The unit with him sir, was totally wiped out by him, from what we are gathering he was the one that shot them down, and then disappeared in the direction of that girls media report," he replied.

Patrick grew very angry, "This is ridiculous, alert the men to stop him, I want a full report now!" Patrick shouted as he turned the phone off.

Rau looked at him, "Sir it appears it is happening."

Patrick looked over at the screen as he saw Lacus look in a direction, and they heard loud gun fire, which was Yzak's signature, he needed the noise to scare away the civilians that were there, they saw and heard that as the camera went dead.

Patrick sat down and smiled, "Well at least she will be handled."

"What will you do about him sir?" Rau asked.

Patrick looked at him, "I'm sure he will be in shock when he sees her gone, and Joule will handle it from there, all we can do is waiting for the report."

Rau didn't replay and about the time Kira and Yzak had there final showdown the phone rang again, as Patrick answered it.

"I want good news," he said.

"Sir we are on scene, and the girl seemed to escape," he said.

Patrick grew very angry, "Not this again, how did that fool miss?"

"It appears that he intercepted her sir, from what I can tell Joule had them cornered in the ally, he is wounded and we are waiting for the smoke to clear to confirm the bodies," The man said.

Patrick knew that was enough, "I want my report, in the meantime, get Joule and Elsman out of the area, I'm sure you can handle the rest, when you got there bodies I want to hear from you."

"Yes sir," the man said as Patrick hung up.

"You are having doubts sir?" Rau asked.

"I will not be at ease until I see his body with my own eyes," Patrick said as he sat back down.

Second Team

A few minutes after Kira had left the main square the unit loyal to Patrick had arrived, Mu was trying to wake Andrew up, and all were confused at the moment of what just happened, the smoke had cleared and they didn't know where he ran to.

Siegel approached Uzumi and both of them approached Mu.

"Will he be alright?" Siegel asked.

Mu looked at him, "Nothing serious, but I think the situation here is worse."

Uzumi looked at Siegel as they looked around at all the fallen members.

"This was well planned out, who could have done this?" Uzumi asked.

It was then that Andrew finally woke up, and he looked around and saw the three looking at him.

"That guy can surly hit," Andrew said.

Mu looked at him, "Was it him?"

"It had to be, that skill and precision, that was just a mere kid, but he was to highly trained," Andrew said.

"What I don't get is why he stopped?" Siegel said as they witnessed Kira's behavior.

"I saw the guys in that building, they were without a doubt on the same side, but something had to change, and this guy obviously didn't like it," Andrew said.

It was then a few of Zala's members approached them.

"Are you alright sir?" he asked in a convincing manner.

Siegel looked at him, "We survived, but a lot didn't, I want this area blocked off and I want that assassin tracked down, he is in this Plant somewhere."

"We will handle it sir," he said as Siegel and Uzumi blurted something out.

"What about my daughter?" they said in unison, and the squad leaders now played there part.

"We will inform another unit nearby to get over there sir, I doubt that guy was aiming for them anyway," he said.

Siegel and Uzumi were concerned, but they had to leave it up to the professionals.

Mu and Andrew knew it wasn't going to be that simple if that was the same guy.

It was then that one member gave the report to Patrick.

Small Park

A little while later the other unit assigned to arrive once Yzak was supposed to be finished had arrived, they walked in and saw all of the fallen bodies, but no Lacus, they looked around when they saw Yzak get shot and throw the grenade, they watched as he fell and the grenade exploded. They rushed up to Yzak and gave him the news. Yzak wanted badly to see Kira's body, but the grenade he used was a big one and smoke was blocking too badly and Patrick wanted him out.

Yzak didn't want to compromise his newly appointed position so he agreed, Yzak walked over to the unit as the area was a complete mess, bullet holes and bodies from his weapon was all of what you saw, Yzak grabbed his busted SAW and looked at the building Dearka would be at.

Dearka didn't know what was happening but when he saw Yzak he knew that he must have succeeded, Yzak gave a wave and Dearka saw that in his scope as they got in a car that was waiting and he took a different route to pick up Dearka and then head over to the military base, they would not be allowed to leave the Plant for awhile, as they had to remain low for awhile and that base was the perfect place to stay hidden in the open. They stopped by and grabbed Dearka, who used the stairs not to be spotted and out the side where he jumped in the car and took off.

The squad was getting around the area, and the smoke cleared as they were finally heading down the ally to confirm the two dead.

Plant

Kira and Lacus saw that grenade coming and Kira did his best to shield her as the grenade exploded they were a little ways through the door that Kira busted through as the grenade went off, they were almost clear but they were still hit by the outer range of the blast. Kira had her shielded and he turned them so he was facing most of the blast and it worked, the blast knocked him back and he let her go as she was halfway through the door and the blast threw him out and back towards the other side of the ally. The blast did knock Lacus out a bit, but Kira was only dazed, his body was made for things like this, but he was still human, he could bleed, and he could die.

The blast sent a lot of smoke as Kira was regaining his senses, Kira tried to move but the pain was really overtaken his body, Kira looked down and saw that the entire left side of his assault vest was shredded, and he was torn up badly by shrapnel of the grenade, it went straight into his side and a little bit in his left arm, when he saw the grenade he turned his body and shielded Lacus mostly with his arm and that side, and it worked.

Kira looked around for her and saw her in the doorway on the ground and not moving, Kira saw that the smoke was still heavy and Yzak wouldn't be able to see him yet, Kira ignored the pain as he got up and stumbled towards her, he sank to his knees as he feared the worse.

He looked down and the only wound he could see was that on her lower left leg, near her ankle, he gently rolled her over and as he heard her stir a little his heart felt relief, as he check her out and the only wound he saw was that on her leg, he fell sideways a little as the pain was really overtaking him, as he sank down on his back again but he couldn't stay like this to long.

Lacus felt herself being examined and she opened her eyes only to see Kira fall to his back, she looked horrified as she quickly tried to move but her leg was killing her, she looked down and saw that it was hit with small shrapnel, she looked over at Kira and he didn't look good at all, the tears formed in her eyes as she remembered what he did, he took that blast for her, fear and agony were overtaken her heart as she didn't even know him well, not even his name, but her heart didn't care as it was hurting deeply, she was able to ignore the pain as she crawled over to Kira who had shut his eyes for as second, she saw that his side was in bad shape and she took off her long whit coat, she was wearing her black kimono (The one in Destiny) and she tried to place it on his wounds as she saw him open his eyes and relief struck in her heart.

Kira looked up and saw the sadness in her eyes, and he didn't like seeing her this way, Kira smiled up at her and was about to say something as she smiled back, "You scared me half to death," she said in a whisper.

"I'm glad you're alright," Kira said as the pain affected him again, and Lacus looked very concerned, but the smoke was starting to clear and Kira could hear someone approaching.

Kira quickly had a plan, "Please get down and act dead," Kira asked her as he could never demand her to do anything.

Lacus was confused at first but she did it. With the smoke clearing Kira laid back down but not before removing his Socom and one of his M9s, he made it look like he was gone and he shut his eyes slightly as three men approached.

"I think I found them sir," one said as all three went over to the location.

The leader of the unit smiled, "This will make the leader happy, get me the communicator so I…" he didn't have a chance to say as one man on his right fell and he felt something strike his chest, he looked down and saw the gun shot, he looked back up to see Kira looking straight at him as he quickly countered the man on his left and he fell as well. The leader was shocked as he dropped face first down on the ground.

Kira holstered both weapons and walked over to Lacus.

"It's alright now," he said as she opened her eyes to see him holding out his hand to her.

Lacus looked and without hesitation took his hand as he gracefully helped her on her feet, and she blushed as she looked into his eyes.

Kira was about to speak when he heard movement, both Kira and Lacus looked around the ally and saw this unit wasn't alone.

"It's not safe here we have to go," Kira said as he winced in pain again as Lacus wrapped her one arm around him with concern.

"Let's go," Kira said as they went through the door, but Lacus was having trouble walking as her leg was really starting to hurt now that she was walking, and she stumbled but was caught by Kira.

What happened next shocked her as Kira lifted her up ignoring his own pain as he tended to her.

Lacus blushed like crazy, "I will be fine, I can walk in a minute, you shouldn't push yourself."

Kira smiled at her, "My bodies different," Kira told himself but he looked at her, "It's alright, we don't have much time," Kira said as she wrapped her arms around his neck and placed her head on his chest, she didn't know why but she did it anyway.

Kira was surprised but it made him feel at peace, they walked to the other side of this building and they were glad it was empty. They arrived at the end of this long building and Kira's pain was getting worse and Lacus knew it.

"We should stop," Lacus said.

Kira looked at her, "It won't work we have to go."

Lacus gave him her angry look, "They won't find us that quickly we can give it a minute," she said as she was not taken no for an answer.

Kira smiled, "Very well, but only a minute," Kira said as he placed her down in a seat by the door as he placed a hand on his side.

Building

Kira was glad they locked the door to this factory building where they came in, no one but those three saw them, and he hoped that they would just keep going straight to search for them ignoring the building and they seemed to be doing just that.

Kira placed a hand on his side as the pain was getting to him.

Lacus looked at him with concern, "Mr…" she was going to say but realized she didn't know his name yet.

Kira was able to see his wound more fully and it was a little more serious then he thought, they needed to get off this Plant, and he had just the way to do it so they weren't caught.

Kira looked at her, "It's Kira…just call me Kira, I don't have a last name."

Lacus was a little confused, "Kira what should we do now, you really need to be looked at."

"There is no time, we have to get to the shuttle bay and off this Plant," Kira told her.

Lacus was going to respond but she remembered something, "My father, what about my father did…" Lacus said but Kira cut her off.

"Your father will be fine…he wasn't the target, the leader will not benefit from just killing him…besides you and the Orb leader were the targets," Kira told her as he started looking at her leg.

Lacus didn't stop him, but she was shocked at what she heard, "Then is Lord Uzumi dead?" she asked as she knew him for since she was young, and she knew Cagalli wouldn't take the news well.

Kira looked up at her with regret, "He is alive…I didn't finish it."

Lacus should have been horrified at everything about him but she wasn't, she couldn't believe the honesty, and she knew she had to ask the question she had been wondering since the Hotel in Orb, but she didn't want to ask it just yet.

Kira looked at her leg and saw that it wasn't too serious, he would be able to fix it later, Kira took of his long bandana and wrapped it around her leg, and Lacus couldn't help but blush.

"This will hold for awhile, I will look at it fully when we are out of here," Kira told her.

Lacus smiled, "May I ask you a personal question?"

Kira looked at her and knew she would eventually, and he nodded.

Lacus was glad, "Who is it that you work for and why did you betray him?"

Kira didn't have any regrets about talking, Lacus wasn't interrogating him, he got the feeling that she was trying to understand him better.

"I worked for Patrick Zala for the past two years, but I have known him my whole life, why I turned on him, is because he turned on me, he didn't keep his word about not harming yo…" Kira caught himself before he could finish and went silent.

Lacus knew he did, but she thought he told her it was because of her, "I'm sorry I didn't mean to push you," Lacus said as she didn't want to ask her main question just yet.

Kira smiled, "We should go, they will be able to track us back to here, once we get to the port I have a plan, that is if you want to come with me," Kira told her softly.

Lacus did want to go, it crossed her mind that they should ask her father for help, but from what happened she was afraid Zala would do something to him, she didn't want him to worry, but it was for the best that she vanished at the moment, and she knew her best chance of survival was with him, but more than that she wanted to go with him.

"I will go with you, I trust you," Lacus told him as Kira was shocked by her words, but Kira would worry about it later.

"Let's go then," Kira said as he helped her to her feet, but her pain wasn't that bad anymore and she could walk.

"Once we get to the port it might get a little messy," Kira told her as she just nodded.

Kira upholstered his Socom and went to the door, he opened it and found nothing there, Kira walked out as Lacus placed a comforting hand on his shoulder as she followed him out.

Kira knew all of the locations the units would be in and from here they were closer to the port, but it was still a ways, Kira's own wounds were not getting any better, but he couldn't show that now. Kira and Lacus made there way through alleys and side roads taking the long way to the shuttle bay, when they arrived at the entrance Kira knew Zala would be well aware of his actions at the moment, and it was guarded by about five.

Kira and Lacus took cover behind the last building leading to the shuttle bay, and Kira had his ways of getting into the port. Lacus was watching carefully as he pulled one of his strange looking grenades out of what was left of his vest, most of the left side was shattered and it tore his shirt, but what concerned her was the blood that didn't seem to stop, when Kira applied pressure it would stop for a little while, but then start up again, and she knew he needed help.

Kira popped the pin out and launched his none lethal grenade towards the guards, the guards heard something fall at there feet, but when they looked around the stun grenade went off, Kira took that as his chance as they were disoriented,

"Stay here," Kira said as he didn't wait for a response and he still had quite a lot of speed left as he rushed over to them.

Lacus was amazed at his speed.

Kira saw them trying to get organized and he hastily knocked each one out with the back of his gun, Kira wanted to finish them but after he took care of the guards in the ally he didn't want Lacus to see him kill like that when it wasn't necessary. The guards were all on the ground and Kira motioned for her to join him and she rushed over to his side.

Shuttle Bay

Lacus rushed over to him as he stumbled again but he felt her wrap her arms around him to steady him. Kira loved that feeling but they had to move, Kira got back up and they went inside, Kira had a plan and he needed two shuttles, all shuttles were grounded this day and there was no need to worry about that, Kira had to set up the controls though to make it look like only one shuttle left, which meant he had to change the count in the records, he also had to worry about the security since it was under military protection this day. Kira and Lacus went in and Kira smiled as the guards weren't really paying attention.

Kira had two non lethal grenades left and he would be forced to use another here as a group of soldiers were standing around talking, Kira leaned over the side and pulled out his gas grenade, he unpinned it and through it over as the grenade exploded in the air, but it caught them but not before one fired in the air. Kira cursed and knew it would get messy now.

"Stay behind me," Kira told her as Lacus nodded.

Kira saw the guards rush over from different areas and he opened fire, he had no choice as they were coming fast, a few got some shots off, but Kira was still able to hit all of them, Kira was out and reached for another clip as he found it was his last for this gun, that shrapnel made the others pretty much useless as Kira believed that was why there was a lot of damage to his body.

Kira clamped the clip in and grabbed Lacus' hand as they headed over to the control room, Lacus did as Kira asked and she stayed behind him, Kira saw a few more guards enter but he was able to drop each with one shot.

Kira and Lacus continued until they reached the control room, Kira was able to pick the lock with his device and he went inside only to find more personal, they drew there weapons and Kira hastily moved back out and making sure Lacus was out of the way first, as they opened fire towards the opening, Kira spun her around and held her to his body in his arms, and Lacus blushed massively as she rested her head on his chest, Kira knew they would rush out if this kept on and he grabbed his last non lethal grenade, it was a smoke grenade, and he tossed it in, as it went off he heard coughing and he let go of Lacus and moved in.

Kira once again, took all of them out with blows to the head, as he held his breathe, when he was done he came back out and then waited a few seconds for the room to clear of smoke and then they both went inside the control room.

Kira went to work immediately as he got straight into the computer, his typing and knowledge were astonishing to Lacus as he ran into no problems, glancing out the window every now and then looking for guards, but Kira was sure they got all of them. Kira got into the system and changed the count of shuttles and then he masked the launch of the second shuttle that they would take and Kira let the other one go free.

Kira set the first shuttle to earth, this would be there decoy.

Kira set the other that they would take to the Zala Plant, Lacus saw this.

"Won't they find us?" Lacus asked.

Kira smiled, "The best way to hide is out in the open, besides they won't know, I changed the infantry of shuttles to this Plant and the other Plant so they will all be accounted for, Zala will check out this shuttle but they will have to do it on earth, which will buy us a few days, we will take refuge in my place until then, it would takes Zala's whole technical team weeks to surpass my security there, so it will buy us a few days to come up with something."

Lacus was amazed he knew so much it was almost like he wasn't human, but she could tell by his emotions he showed her that he felt a lot more than people would initially think.

Kira finished up and he automatically launched the first shuttle, Kira did some work on the cameras that they would not see a thing, Kira smiled as he prepared the other shuttle and when he was finished it was time to go.

"Alright it's done," Kira said as they started making there way towards the shuttle.

Kira and Lacus boarded the second shuttle Kira had prepared and they made there way to the cockpit, Kira could handle this Kira and Lacus sat down and Kira was able to launch it.

The shuttle was launched and Kira would have to do a little work as they landed but he would figure something out.

Lacus smiled that they made it, she was worried about the others, but she trusted Kira's words and she was glad to be around him, he had her feel secure, safe and happy, this was the first time she spoke to him but she was looking forward to speaking more to him.

Kira was done but his side was really agonizing him now, he placed his hand on it again, as he tried to stop the blood that started again, his body was different and if he was a normal coordinator he wouldn't be able to move, but his body was working with him, however there was a lot of damage, but he could fix that once he got home.

Kira saw Lacus looking over at him with concern again, and he had to admit liked being around her, but they would have there chance to speak again when they arrived at his place.

To be continued…
