Chapter Twenty Seven

Discovery

Mendel Colony-Research Office

"I'm sorry Kira," Lacus said as she placed both her hands on his shoulders and rested her head on his back, she really hoped he would be able to find out something.

Kira was flustered that it had to end like this, Kira just placed his hand on the pad trying to learn something, and as he did they got a shock as the computer spoke.

"Analyzing DNA pattern," the computer said as Kira could feel something pick his hand as the device was reading his DNA, but he didn't expect what happened next.

"DNA pattern accepted…Welcome Professor Hibiki," the computer said as the door started opening, anyone along the Hibiki line would be able to get through the scan.

Kira and Lacus were stunned as the door opened and both were still in shock that the door even opened, but what was more shocking to them was that Kira's DNA was a match for the unlocking of the door.

When the door was finally opened Kira and Lacus looked inside and saw a perfectly organized office that looked as if it hadn't been touched in years, which it probably wasn't.

Kira was still in shock that the door opened at his genetic code.

"…How…Why…What does this mean?" Kira said to himself as he removed his hand for the terminal, Kira knew that the thing was working so the scanner had to be right.

"Ulen Hibiki was the scientist name…could he be," Kira was still thinking to himself as Lacus interrupted his thoughts.

Lacus watched him with concern as she could tell he didn't know what to make of all of this, "You don't have to do this Kira…" Lacus told him as she was hoping to break the silence he was in, and she didn't want him to put himself thorough the truth that may be here.

Kira looked right at her, "Let's go in…we have little time to waste so I will make this quick," Kira said as he walked straight into the room of this scientists personal office.

Lacus followed him in immediately.

Mendel Colony-Ulen's Office

Inside the office was a large desk with an outdated computer along with several other things Kira had never seen before. There were a few bookshelves and several file cabinets; it looked as if nothing had been moved in years.

Kira walked in and approached the desk first, he sat down on the chair and tried to start up this computer, but to his surprise it immediately worked, as Kira was waiting as it seemed this thing was taking forever to boot up he looked around the desk trying to find something.

Lacus watched as he started working on that computer and she wanted to do something to help him so she headed over to the file cabinets and started looking around. She knew that data on a project like the ultimate coordinator would most likely never be in the open like this, but it was eliminating another place to look, plus she could tell by the look in Kira's eyes he just wanted to be alone for the minute.

Kira searched several drawers finding a lot of data disks that were just lying around and many were marked, most were just on coordinator data, and a few other genetic patterns but nothing that would lead him to believe their was something about him.

Kira finished off one side of the desk as he looked in the other side and this time one disk caught his eye, it was a data disk about those machines outside in the research area and Kira knew he would have to check this out.

Kira noticed that the computer was finally booted up, and he immediately went to work, but the systems were so far out of date he was easily able to log in and bypass any security that was placed on this computer.

Kira checked around in the files stored on this computer and found most of the same and there was nothing about him, or this project Patrick told him about. Kira finished up finding nothing, when he decided to pop the disk he found in and he immediately opened up the files inside.

Kira glanced up while it was opening and saw that Lacus was looking at all the files inside, he appreciated that she wanted to help him, but more than that he was appreciative of her presence, she made him feel at peace with himself. Whenever Lacus was around Kira didn't have to think about war or combat, now and from the time he met her he was finally happy with her. Kira knew that Lacus made the choice to stay with him, she could have easily gone back to her father for help but she stayed with him and he was glad.

Lacus looked in each drawer finding nothing, but she didn't quit. Lacus also felt the same, and it wasn't just that she was worried about her father that she didn't go back to him for help, but she wanted to stay with Kira, and she didn't at all regret the decision to stay with him.

Lacus finished up in the file cabinets finding nothing and she sighed as she noticed the bookshelves so she decided to take a look at those, she never expected to find anything but if their was a chance their was something about Kira then she decided to look through all of them, Lacus approached the first shelve and started looking at all the books, she looked at the title and tried checking behind them but their were quite a few so this could be awhile.

Kira opened up the file on the disk he just placed in and the data on all of the machines outside came up.

Kira read all of them and knew they were what he expected them to be, he knew all along but this was just to top it off. The data showed those were the things he was born from. Kira saw all the data on the machines and saw that even some of the failed experiments were listed here, Kira saw that none that were placed in survived on this disk which meant he wasn't going to get anything out of this. Kira placed his hands over his head as he thought he hit a dead end, but that was about to change.

Lacus went through a lot of books, when one caught her eye, it was a fiction novel in placed with all of the research documents and other scientific books. Lacus knew this book was out of place but the title of it was called ultimate dream and something about that book made her pick it up and she was glad she did as it felt heavy but as she removed it a medium size picture fell out along with another data disk.

It hit the floor making Kira look over in her direction; Lacus noticed that the pages of the book were mostly cut out to make room for the picture and disk.

"What is it?" Kira asked as he stood up.

Lacus bent down retrieving both things and then she looked back up at Kira, "It's a photo of a woman holding two babies…and the disk is…" Lacus said as she froze.

Kira started walking over to her as she froze, "What does it say?"

Lacus looked up at him, and handed him the disk, she was relieved but a part of her was sad.

Kira took the disk and read the label as he slightly smiled, "Ultimate Coordinator Succession," Kira said as he walked straight back to the computer and popped it in.

Lacus followed as she looked at the picture in the frame, "What do you think this is Kira? That woman holding the baby's looks a lot like…you," Lacus said as she showed Kira the photo.

Kira glanced over as the data was loading, "…I don't know…maybe the scientists wife and family," Kira said as he stretched the word, Kira knew he had some sort of connection with this Ulen Hibiki since the DNA matched, but what he was focused on was the two babies. Kira knew that he had to be related, he just didn't know how close…yet.

Kira didn't voice anything else on the picture but it was in his mind, and he turned his attention back to the disk as he was fully ready and all Kira had to do was open the file.

Kira opened the file and found that it required a password, but since the data was so far out of date he easily accessed it. Kira broke through the security and the file revealed all the data.

Kira watched as the data was opened and he immediately saw how he was created, it showed the detailed steps that were used in the process all the up to the time of his birth. Kira knew that from what Patrick told him the data on how he was created was lost, but now this one file remained. Lacus watched in shock as she kept looking down at Kira, but the expression on his face didn't change.

Kira looked through all the data but what he found next really interested him, it was the personal journal of Ulen Hibiki the scientist that created him. Kira was really interested in this file as it was in full detail. Kira saw many files there were the times before his birth and the last file was a few days after his birth.

Kira opened up the first file as it would be best to start here. Kira saw that the date was two years before his birth.

CE 0053

Today was a horrible failure on my part to create my dream, something is missing from the creation of coordinators, they have far more potential then naturals, but I know they could go much further.

Somehow I know it has to do with the mother's body, I have to some how find a way to take it out of the equation.

End Log

Kira saw that it was a short message; Lacus was right behind him as she placed her hands on his shoulders.

Kira knew that was two far back so now he skipped ahead to a year before his birth.

CE 0054

I have finally finished my creation the perfect devise for nurturing the ultimate coordinator, my troublesome wife keeps giving me problems but I will not stop now. The problem I face now is trying to keep the being stable inside, plus my funding is running out.

Luckily I have a meeting soon with a man from Zaft that expressed interest in my research; maybe I will finally get what I need to finish my dream.

End Log

Kira knew right away that the man had to be Patrick Zala…but this still wasn't giving Kira the answers he wanted.

Kira moved ahead to the file that was labeled meeting.

CE 0054 three months later

My meeting with the man named Patrick Zala was a complete success; he offered full funding in exchange that the first ultimate coordinator would be given to him for use in the Zaft army.

I ran out of samples but that will not stop me, in bringing this up to my wife she immediately rejected my proposal but I will not let her ruin my plans, instead I will use my own son for project, with the funding I received and trying something new I know it will work out.

In finding that my wife was carrying twins we agreed to make the boy a coordinator, but I will use the child as my experiment in making the ultimate coordinator, she will disagree but he is my son and I will use my new technology to make him the greatest creation the world has ever seen. By the time she figures it out it will be far too late, my dream will come true.

End Log

Kira finished up the file and that was when he looked at the picture again, he could tell that meaning the twins it had to be them, meaning that must be him…but what about the other baby who was she, Kira was never told about this and he had to go on.

Lacus watched the data but she said nothing yet, she remained by Kira but his face still hadn't changed.

Kira moved around and now went a few more months ahead.

CE 0055

After four months inside my creation has passed the critical stage, I just know this will work.

Patrick Zala has been constantly checking on the progress and was pleased with my last report. Once my wife found out what I was doing she was hysterical, I told her than and there that I was making him the greatest creation in the world, she of course wanted me to stop but it was far to late, hopefully that worthless natural daughter she is carrying will shut her up once it is born but I have no use for that child.

I will watch with interest as Patrick Zala trains my son to be the best of the world; my name will be forever known as the man that created greatness.

I have been hearing rumors lately that radical groups have been snooping around, I will need to tighten up security, I called a press conference that maybe wasn't the best idea known I will present the perfect human to the world, of course leaving Zala's name out but I got the idea he didn't like that idea very much so that will be something else I will have to watch out for.

End Log

Kira knew right then and there, but all along he knew this man was his father, this man sold his own son out to be raised as a killer, all for funding and glory. Kira also knew that now he without a doubt had a natural sibling a sister, but since Kira never heard anything about that he figured that she must have died in the attack.

Lacus watched with interest she understood everything and it hurt her to see Kira used like that.

Kira decided to skip ahead to the day of his birth.

CE 0055 May 18

What a glorious day this has been, my creation has been released from the machine, that pesky wife of course had her daughter as well and she desired to have them both with her, for the moment I agreed only so I could contact Patrick Zala. From what I have heard she hasn't released my creation and she even named both of them, Kira and Cagalli, but no matter, once Patrick Zala gets here that will be her problem.

My creation was very healthy from exiting the machine, and from what I gather he is already started to gain intelligence, he didn't cry as he was being removed and started moving his hands and toes while blinking his eyes while watching, I could tell he was distinguishing his hands from his feet, this will be very glorious to watch as he grows and becomes even more powerful and smarter.

I have had that wife of mine watched, and from what I gather she has been making several calls down to her friends in ORB, I know she is without a doubt going to try to flee, but such a thing will not be allowed.

Patrick Zala is on his way, but my intelligence states that blue cosmos is gathering close to, but Patrick should be long gone before they get here.

My press conference is only a few minutes away and I will announce to the world my creation, I have already thought of a way to make sure his presence is kept under wraps while he is with Patrick so I can finally have my glory.

End Log

Kira stopped while he read that and Lacus spoke up.

"Are you alright Kira?" Lacus asked.

Kira looked up at her, "Fine why?"

Lacus could tell he was hiding something, and tried to loosen him up, "From what I gather you have a sister named Cagalli…I have a friend named Cagalli, she is Lord Uzumi's daughter," Lacus said trying to loosen the tension she was feeling around him up.

Kira ignored that comment, "I think I will skip ahead now," Kira said as he opened the last file.

CE 0055 a few days after the birth

The radical groups are closer than I thought, I have sent word to Patrick Zala and he is bringing an entire strike force with him, hopefully he will make it in time…luckily I kept the gender of the baby out of the news so I am planning to use the natural my wife gave birth to as the decoy in case blue cosmos arrives first…that way my creation will still have a chance, only Patrick knows outside this lab what the real ultimate coordinator looks like and is, this will hopefully by him the time to get Kira and get out.

As a precaution that my data survives I will leave this disk and log inside my office, only myself can enter…but after taking a DNA sample from my son I will imprint his DNA code in here as well, if anything happens I know he will return and make what he is known to the world, humanity is in need of change, and hopeful Patrick Zala will train him well.

My dream has come true and now I wish the glory that is rightfully mine, and my son will make sure of that my continuing to shock the world with what he will be able to do, I hope that I see it.

This will be my last log for now until the crises passes, but just in case something does go wrong my son will be the only one to find this, so you know what must be done Kira don't let whatever happens here go to waste, you were created to change humanity and I know you will not fail my wishes.

End Log

Kira finished and popped the disk back out as he looked at it, after all that his so called father was giving him orders on what to do.

Lacus watched as she squeezed tighter on his shoulders.

Kira stood up placing the disk in his vest, "That is that…we should head back to the mobile suit so I can start decrypting the code left on the data we gather at the docks," Kira said as he started walking out.

Lacus followed him, "You don't have to hide anything from me Kira."

Kira didn't stop, "Can we let it go for now?" Kira said as he didn't stop walking.

Lacus understood for the moment and she followed him.

They didn't say anything else to each other as they walked out of the facility and Kira finally broke the silence, "I'm sorry Lacus," Kira said as he stopped.

Lacus looked at him, "You have nothing to be sorry for Kira…whenever you wish to talk…I will be here," Lacus said as she approached Kira kissing him gently on his cheek as she took her hand extending it to his.

Kira smiled and took her hand, but he never did stop thinking about what he saw, and for now he was trying to block it out so he could focus on what had to be done now.

They walked out of the facility and back to the mobile suit.

Zala Plant

After returning to the military base like his father wished, Athrun left that same day to go and see his mother. Athrun knew very well that after all the reports Lenore had to of seen Kira's image played throughout the Plants and he knew that his father would most likely not tell her anything so he wanted to go to her to give her the answers he knew she would be looking for.

Athrun arrived at his old house and hesitated at first but eventually got out of the car and walked inside the mansion.

Zala Mansion

Once inside the mansion Athrun was greeted by the butler of the house and he immediately took Athrun to the back room where his mother was currently.

Athrun ran it over in his head what he was going to say to her, his mother knew nothing of what Kira really was doing, and after all the events he knew she was going to be hurt.

Athrun walked into the back room thanking the butler as he saw his mother holding a picture and from the size he knew what it was, it was a photo on him and Kira when they were still children, Athrun almost wanted to turn around and walk out but he didn't.

"Mother," Athrun said out loud as Lenore quickly turned around to see her son standing there.

Athrun saw the hurt in her face, "I take it you have seen the reports."

Lenore gently put the picture down as she turned to her son, "Is what your father said true?"

Athrun frowned, "What he said…was true mother…Kira has been working for us for the past two years, we only made him seem like a military engineer as a backup cover plan to hide his identity, not that he exists anywhere else on paper."

Lenore shut her eyes, despite what was happening she always thought of Kira as her son, and she still does.

"Why was he forced to stay off record?" Lenore asked as she really wanted to know.

Athrun frowned again, "I don't even know that mother…father always changed the subject or didn't want to hear matters like that…Father ordered me and Kira to keep this quiet even from you…we didn't like doing it but it was necessary to achieve fathers goal…at least that was what he said."

"Everything that your father said at the press conference…I may not have known what you guys were really involved in but Kira would not betray your father without a good reason, and I get the feeling you also notice the change in your father," Lenore said as she could tell that her husband was becoming more and more distant lately and she could see the hatred forming in his eyes when he spoke of naturals and such.

Athrun stared at his mother, "Father has changed…but I don't really know what to think about what his plans are, maybe it would be for the best if his plans succeeded…and now Kira turned against us and even killed Nicol," Athrun paused as that was still lingering in his mind.

Lenore stared at her son, "I heard what happened to your friend Athrun, and I saw the video…from what I gather your father will send you to confront Kira will he not?"

Athrun frowned again, "I believe he will mother…and I don't know what I will do, I may have to…" Athrun said as he couldn't finish, a part of him was still very loyal to Kira, but another part was deeply angry at what Kira did.

Lenore looked at him, "Just promise me one thing my son."

Athrun looked at her.

Lenore smiled, "Listen to your mind and heart before you make a decision, the choice you make will determine what you have to live with the rest of your life, don't let anyone including your father make the decisions for you, of course I want both of you and Kira to be safe, just make sure you think about your decision."

Athrun smiled, "Thank you mother."

Lenore smiled again, "From what I gather lately the Chairman will be gathering leaders and representatives from all over Plant, Orb and Earth as a last attempted peace conference, I myself will attend."

Athrun looked shocked, "That will be dangerous mother, many do not wish for such a thing, including father."

Lenore smiled, "Nothing will stop your father from being elected chairman, but I believe if what I believe he is capable of then having me attend will not make him try anything foolish, besides I believe more in peoples desire to keep the order stable in the world."

Athrun looked at her, "I hope you succeed mother though I still don't like you being that close to a potential danger zone," Athrun said as he noticed the time, "I have to head back…just in case orders come in."

Lenore nodded her head, "Stay safe my son, and remember my words," Lenore said as Athrun smiled and left the room.

Once he got outside he thought about his mothers words, but that still didn't help very much, Athrun still couldn't get the image of Kira firing at Nicol out of his head, why wouldn't Kira give Nicol a second thought before he fired at him.

Athrun shook his head and returned to his car, this constant thinking was driving him crazy, and as he was driving he came to a decision and knew what had to be done.

Mendel Colony

Outside Research Facility

After Kira and Lacus arrived back at the mobile suit they stole Kira immediately started to work on decrypting the files he found at the underground dock but he was really distracted at what he had just learned.

Kira was sitting inside the mobile suit while using the computer of the machine to work on the files, but he learned he wasn't going to be able to do much without a normal computer, so he just tried his best for the time being.

Lacus knew that Kira was hurting no matter how hard he tried to hide it, but she didn't want to push him at the moment. Lacus decided that she would try to do something to clear his mind so she decided to make some food for the both of them that she brought along when they left his mansion.

No matter how hard Kira tried he just couldn't get the images out of his head from his fathers own words, Sighing Kira turned off the computer knowing he wouldn't be able to work, and he needed a different computer terminal while getting out of the cockpit and lowering himself to ground level.

Kira landed on the ground as he walked over to the mobile suits foot and got on top of it as he sat down overlooking the colony, he really needed to clear his head. Kira still had all of his equipment strapped on so he removed his UMP from the strap and placed it next to him along with his assault vest that he took off as he laid back looking up at his machine he stole.

They came here for a reason and now Kira didn't know where to go now, they found a part of what Patrick was trying to do, but they didn't have the means to destroy all of the N jammers with this unfinished mobile suit, he could with time, but Kira didn't know if that was the right thing to do or not, Kira also had to figure out what to do with this machine, he was still unsure whether he wanted to destroy it or complete it.

Those were all decisions Kira had to make, but what was really bothering him was what he found out about himself, somewhere deep down he knew that he was just an experiment, but actually finding out the truth and seeing it with his own eyes was making him have a very different reaction.

"Just a creation my father put it…I always thought…" Kira thought to himself as he was interrupted by Lacus.

"Here…" Lacus said as she handed him some food she just made.

Kira sat back up as he saw that she was able to make it up here with no trouble, "…thank you," Kira said as he took the food, he always softened up around her.

Lacus smiled and took a seat next to him as she leaned against him a little, "I'm sorry it might not be very good but it's all I had to work with," Lacus said as Kira only smiled at her, but to him it was still great, anything she touched could never be damaged in any way in his mind.

"It is great," Kira replied as they ate in silence.

Kira and Lacus finished their food as Lacus once again leaned up against him placing her head on his shoulder, Kira responded by placing his arm around her and placing his head on top of hers.

"I guess I always thought there would be something more," Kira said after a few minutes of silence.

Lacus looked up at him, "What do you mean?"

"I always knew I was some kind of creation for a cause, and I accepted that…but I always thought that there would be more to it than that," Kira said as Lacus knew he was finally opening up on the matter.

"I knew Patrick thought of me as his weapon…I just thought maybe my real parents thought of me as their child, not a creation," Kira told her.

Lacus frowned as she could hear the hurt in his voice and it hurt her, "From what I heard your mother seemed like a caring person, she didn't seem to happy for what your father did to you, he lied to her and it was to late to do anything about it."

Kira knew she was right, but it was just the way his father spoke, anyone would be feeling like he was if they found out all his father wanted him for was to make himself famous, and then to just give him away to be raised as a killing machine.

"I guess that is as far as it will go, there are so many things left to know, but I guess when blue cosmos attacked the rest of the story was lost," Kira replied.

Lacus looked up at him, "From what the logs said your mother had friends in Orb…and maybe your sister could still be alive somewhere."

Kira leaned down and kissed the top of her head, "Maybe the past is better left as it was."

Lacus clutched Kira tighter, "I don't care what you were born as Kira…to me you are still just Kira, and you will always be very…special to me," Lacus said as she had to get her feelings out.

Those words did make Kira feel better, but he knew they weren't just words they were the feeling from her heart.

"You are the greatest thing that has ever come into my life Lacus…and I hope we can continue this in the future…but for now," Kira said as Lacus smiled.

"We still have to move on," Lacus finished for him.

Kira looked at her, "Coming here didn't really give us anything…and I think I will need something stronger than this mobile suits computer to get that decryption off."

Lacus thought for a second, "…We could head down to Orb."

Kira looked at her, "What could we do in Orb…besides I have no connections there."

Lacus smiled, "I know a few that could help…besides we may even be able to complete this thing," Lacus said as she looked up at the mobile suit.

"I am still not sure if I am completing this thing…but if we can break this code then so be it…we will leave tomorrow," Kira said as he laid back down looking up.

Lacus looked back at him, and soon laid next to him on her side as she looked into his eyes, "We will end this Kira…then we can start our lives…together," Lacus said with a blush.

Kira smiled as he wrapped his arm around her lovingly and kissed her gently, Lacus blushed again as their kissed grew a little more passionate, after a good three minutes they slowly parted as Lacus rested her head on his chest.

Kira responded by placing his arm around her and the other he took her hand in his as they slowly drifted to sleep never moving from that position.

Space-Outside the Mendel Colony

Rau and his ship speed up to maximum power as they reached the Colony the very next morning, as soon as the colony came into sight Rau smiled.

"Scan the inner section," Rau said to a bridge officer.

The officer looked back at him, "I am detecting slight thermal traces…it is likely the stolen machine."

Rau smiled, "Very good…prepared a shuttle and have the mobile suits on standby."

The captain of the ship looked back, "Isn't that a little too cautious sir…we will need the mobile suits to engage our stolen machine."

Rau looked at him, "The leader wants the machine intact…besides I know him to well, rushing in will only bring our people an early grave, we will have our ground units head inside for intel, they will take out the two targets, our machines will stay clear and remain on standby just in case."

The captain didn't like it, "But sir."

Rau was growing impatient, "Listen captain…that new machine he stole will detect any incoming suits…besides all we have are older models none of our new ones are ready yet so that is an even greater disadvantage, our ground forces will get in find the targets and take them out in stealth…now radio to the hanger to prepared the teams for launch, use the small shuttle."

The captain knew that made sense and gave the orders as the main ship came to a halt.

While they were preparing to leave, Rau radioed Patrick and Patrick gave him the go ahead so Rau smiled and got on the wire to his units he was sending in.

Ships Hanger and Bridge

Rau got on the wire and the commander of the unit was standing by.

"My units are prepared sir," the commander said.

Rau smiled, "You are going by small number, but once inside head towards the middle of the colony to a research facility…you will find the two there…surround them and finish them."

The commander was confused, "Are you sure their will be a facility there sir?"

"It is there…now once you have him surrounded take them out quickly, don't give him time to think," Rau said seriously.

The commander smiled, "There are twelve of us sir two of which are snipers, we can handle one traitor and one former singer."

Rau smiled, "Then move out…and do not fail the leader," Rau said but thought differently, "You are taking this far too lightly commander, but I know you are skilled enough to get the job done."

Rau turned back to the captain, "Have the suits launch and standby outside the colony…make sure they don't get to close our his radar will pick us up, and make sure they cause no damage to the colony, our treasures are still in there," Rau said as he sat back in his chair.

The captain did what he was told and shortly after that all machines were launched, but all they had were older models, a few Ginns and a Cgue but that was about it, the suits were launched along with the small shuttle as they were going to approach the north hanger to enter the colony.

Rau watched as now thing would get interesting.

The shuttle approached the docks as the mobile suits stopped and the shuttle entered the docking bay hanger as the doors to space closed.

The commander and his team were all ready and after they were fully docked they opened the doors and rang out heading straight for the inside of the colony, his team had two snipers, five heavy machine gunners and the rest were normal soldiers with mixed equipment.

As soon as they entered the colony, they checked their scanner and knew they had to head for the center as that was where their targets were, the commander picked up the signal of the stolen mobile suit and gave the orders.

"We will split into two teams, first team will head towards the front and we will take initiative in the assassinations of the targets…the second team will secure the back and keep on guard…now let's go," the commander said as all followed the commander's orders.

Outside the Colony-Andrew's ship

Andrew was interrupted as he quickly went to the bridge, "What is going on? Did they find them?"

Dacosta looked at him, "It appears they are at the Mendel Colony sir…and from what I gather mobile suits have just launched and are heading for the north gate."

Andrew knew that meant trouble, "Take us around to the south gate and prepare our teams and suits…I will lead the attack…you take control of the bridge."

Dacosta looked at him, "Be careful sir," he said as Andrew left and the units and pilots that were on standby for all this time were finally about to get some action as Andrew and his teams prepared to leave and engage.

Mendel Colony

Mobile suit

Kira and Lacus didn't move throughout the night but when morning came Kira slowly opened his eyes and smiled down at Lacus. Kira didn't want to disturb her so he remained like that and let her hold on to him, he was still troubled about his discovery, but he Lacus was easily helping him through that.

Kira remained like that for a few minutes when suddenly he got a very bad feeling, it was his instincts acting up again and Kira immediately sat up straight causing Lacus to be removed from his chest.

Lacus woke up immediately as she rubbed her eyes and looked up at Kira, "What's wrong Kira?"

Kira said nothing as he kept looking around.

Lacus sat up and looked at him worriedly, "Kira…" Lacus said as she got a shock.

Kira was looking around as his senses were going crazy and as soon as Lacus said his name he immediately wrapped one arm around her and rolled them both off the mobile suits foot as a bullet struck the mobile suit foot right where they were sitting.

As he was rolling them both off Kira used his foot to knock his Ump down with them along with his assault vest. Kira turned them around and he hit the ground with Lacus on top of him.

Lacus was confused but as soon as they hit the ground, Kira gently but quickly picked her up and moved them to the back side of the foot towards the back.

"What was that?" Lacus asked as she clutched Kira's shirt tightly.

Kira looked around, "They found us," was all Kira could say as machine gun fire was opened in many different directions.

Kira grabbed a hold of Lacus and held her to his body as they dropped as close as they could to the floor, and Kira noticed he was without a lot of his weapons and they were now trapped, and Kira knew he would have to do something very risky as the gun fire was heard again.

To be continued…

(AN): I hope you liked this chapter, I don't know when the next chapter will be up soon maybe. See you later.
