Gundam Seed: Mythical Legends

Phase 17: Reunion

"If Odin and Heimdall lay one finger on my sister, I'll make sure they'll pay!" Kira uttered, looking serious. Narrowing his eyes, he faced Fllay and asked her to tell him where Freya was.

She didn't want to disappoint him, but she had no idea where Freya was. She has no knowledge of her neighborhood or the location of her house. However, she knew one person who could help Kira find his sister. "You better ask Oto-sama instead," she suggested.

"You mean Loki? Where is he now?"

"I'll take you to him if you want." She lunged forward and grabbed his right hand. As she wrapped her arms around his arm, she smiled at him. "Let's go now!" She sounded like a little girl, which concerned Kira a bit. He wouldn't expect for a goddess of her caliber to act like a child when it comes to her father. But that's Fllay for you…

It took a while for Kira to say, "Please do…" It seemed like he was in a state of excitement.

At this time, Miriallia stepped forward and bid Kira good luck. She also told him that she feels a heavy disturbance in the air. The disturbance was eerie and frightening—even for a goddess like her. She suddenly felt a pang of worry gushing in her heart. Is something bad going to happen to Freya-sama? Her mouth went dry, while she thought of the possible tactics Odin and Heimdall would use. It was a scary thought, but she had to analyze every aspects of their plans carefully.

Why would they want Freya-sama so much? Miriallia wished she had some sort of clue to unravel the mysteries behind the beloved goddess of fertility.

Fllay chanted a spell which formed a warp hole on the floor. She said it would lead them directly to her father's house. "Kira, let's jump in!" She jumped into the warp hole, yanking Kira along with her. As they entered, a gush of light blinded the surroundings and then it vanished.

Outside Shinn's House

Two suspicious figures, Heimdall and Odin, were lurking around the neighborhood until they came across a certain house. They stood before it and glared furiously, knowing their enemy was there.

"Loki is probably tending to Freya right now," Heimdall said, approaching the gates. "Let's retrieve the goddess and destroy Loki now." He turned his head at the great god, Odin, who remained composed.

"Heimdall, we cannot act now. We must be patient." Of course, Odin also wanted to kill Loki, but his first priority was Freya. He swore that he will bring Freya back to Asgard before he left the said place.

Heimdall had nothing to say so he kept quiet—even though he was itching for a fight inside.

Unexpectedly, a strange light appear on the roof of the house. Surely Odin knew what it was, so he immediately spun on his heels and walked off.

"Are we leaving now? Don't you want to face those two up there?" Heimdall deliberately asked those questions.

"Now is not the time to face Freya's precious brother," Odin answered without stopping.

"I see…" Heimdall pasted a smirk as he glanced up only to see Freyr and Hel materialized on the roof. Freyr…Hel… His eyes soften as he gazed dreamingly at the red-haired goddess. Our fate is cruel. Oh, how I wish things were different between us.

Taking one more look at the goddess, he felt a sharp pain of guilt in his heart. Hesitating, he turned around and followed Odin.

"Why are we on the roof?" asked Kira, crossing his arms. "You could've picked a better place." He was being sarcastic with her.

Fllay rolled her eyes away from him and said, "SORRY! I wasn't able to use my powers properly because of the excitement!" She turned, showing her back at Kira.

Curious, Kira questioned, "What kind of excitement?"

"Oh come on! I thought you knew that I'm very excited to see you and your sister back together again!" Fllay shook her head in a funny way, as she swung her hands up and down.

"You're excited for us? That's a surprise."

Raising an eyebrow, Fllay faced him again. "And why?"

"I never expected for the goddess of death to be excited for such a thing." Kira started giggling, which only irritated Fllay.

"Say what you want!" Fllay quickly jumped off the roof and landed safely before the main door of the house.

"You're such a grouch." Kira placed a hand on his temple, pretending to look tired. "You never change."

Fllay looked up at him and pointed a finger. "Do you want to find your sister or not!" she shouted at the top of her lung.

"Okay, okay…" He jumped down and landed beside Fllay.

Fllay pressed the door bell, setting off a wonderful humming tune. "You'll be able to see your sister again," she said without taking her eyes off the door. "I'm happy for you, Freyr."

"Thanks." He heaved a sigh. "But I'm kind of nervous, Fllay." He stared at the ground as he thought about his moment with Cagalli in the school garden, the time he first met her. Surely he felt comfortable around her, but he didn't know why. "Cagalli…you're my sister all along…" he muttered under his breath, thinking How come I didn't feel your aura? That's quite strange.

Strange indeed. Neither Freyr nor the goddesses knew that Cagalli was actually Freya. Nobody could even explain why her powers were dormant. Well, he came up with a theory which definitely states about Cagalli's mortality. Mortals don't possess any powers or the skill to manage great power unless they are given by gods, and Cagalli was born into this world as a mortal.

But my theory could be wrong, Kira put in as he crossed his arms. Before he could think of anything about the matter, the door suddenly flew wide open.

"Freyr-sama? Hel?" gasped Stellar, placing her hand over her mouth.

Raising one eyebrow, Fllay told Stellar to call them by their mortal names.

Stellar blinked twice before she realized what Fllay said. "Okay, okay! I'm SO SORRY, FLLAY!" she sarcastically said as she narrowed her eyes at Fllay.

"And what's with that look!" Fllay couldn't resist raising her voice because she felt a little irritated.

Stellar smiled at her in a friendly way.

"Err… What are you smiling about?"

"I remembered something funny about you."

"Huh? What!"

"I-won't-tell-you." Stellar gestured her index finger back and forth.

"Fine then!" uttered Fllay, pasting a frown on her face. "Screw you!"

Stellar laughed lightly. "You're so funny when you're mad." Her laughter got louder and louder until Fllay got impatient…

"Oh, shut your mouth!" Fllay hustled into the house, went into the living room, and sat on the couch. She leaned back and sighed in frustration. I can't believe that SKULD! She clenched her fists hard and hit the soft couch. She makes me so mad!

"I really made her mad this time…" Stellar had to admit that she went overboard, but she didn't mean any harm. "Oh well…" She turned to Kira and smiled. "So, what brings you here?"

"I'm here to talk to Shinn," Kira replied in a stiff voice. "I want to ask him something."

"You want to ask him something?" Stellar paraphrased. Does he know that his sister is Cagalli-san? She placed a finger on her cheek, which made her look like a little curious girl. Hmm… maybe I should tell him. "Um… Is this about Cagalli-san?"

"Huh?" escaped from his mouth, wondering how Stellar managed to guess. "Well, I was hoping he could tell me where Cagalli lives."

"If you must know, Kira-san, she's here." Stellar pointed to the stairs without taking her eyes off of him. "She's in Shinn's room as we speak."

With that, Kira felt like his heart just skipped a beat. "Seriously? Freya is here!" He gently squeezed Stellar's hands.

"You know already? Who told you?" Stellar had to ask.

"I'll tell you later, okay?" He released her hands and walked to the stairs. "I've got to see her first!" He ran up the stairs, reached the second floor, and saw Athrun leaning against a door. "Athrun?" he called, looking surprised.

Recognizing the voice, Athrun quickly turned to Kira. "Kira, what are you doing here?" His voice sounded frail, because of the little pain he felt.

"I should ask you the same thing, Athrun," replied Kira, trying to remain composed despite his excitement. "Anyway, is Cagalli in that room?" He pointed at the door behind Athrun.

"Cagalli? Why would you want to see Cagalli? Do you want something from her? And who told you that she's here?" From the way he talked, he sounded like a father who is worried for his daughter. And Kira giggled because of that…

"Athrun, chill, because I'm just here to see and talk to her."

Somehow, Kira's answer didn't convince Athrun at all. He was also struck by a sudden thought that brought shivers to his spine. "Kira, are you by any chance…" he started, feeling hesitant.

"A god?" Kira continued for him. "In fact, I am one. I'm Freyr, the god of fertility."

Freyr, Freya's brother! Athrun screamed in his mind. He couldn't find the right words to say at the moment. He never expected that his friend was actually a god. This is getting more and more complicated day by day. He let out a deep sigh.

"Are you all right?" Kira asked, placing a hand on Athrun's shoulder. "You seem to be a bit confused."

Totally confused would be more suitable to describe Athrun's state. All these mythology stuffs were giving him one major headache. "Kira, don't mind me coz' I'm fine." He gestured his hand to the door, inviting Kira to go in. "Cagalli's in there. I bet she's talking with Shinn right now."

"Shinn? Oh, you mean Loki."

Athrun nodded. "Honestly, you immortals lead a harsh life."

"Can't argue with that," agreed Kira, pasting a mischievous smile on his face. He approached the door and reached for the door knob. With hands trembling, he tried calming himself down by muttering some words like 'I can do this'.

"Kira, what are you waiting for?" Athrun questioned, tapping his foot impatiently, as he placed one hand on his waist. "Your sister must see you." He then smiled.

Athrun was right, making Kira realized that there was nothing to be hesitant about. His sister was there, alive and well, and probably waiting for him. "All right, I'm ready."

He faced the door, turned the knob slowly, and opened the door. The first thing he saw inside the room was Cagalli herself.

On the other hand, Cagalli and Shinn quickly turned their attention to the door as they heard it opened. Shinn was a bit surprised to see the brown-haired god standing in glee, while Cagalli was actually happy to see him.

"Kira, I haven't seen you in a while. How are you?" Cagalli showed an attractive smile, which set off Kira's rapid heartbeat.

Voice soft, Kira said, "I'm fine." He tried to put on a good smile, but his heart was giving him a hard time. It was impossible for him not to think about crying. He never felt so happy yet sad at the same time. If he would snap he'd probably go over to Cagalli and hug her like a big teddy bear.

A heavy hand hit his back like a block of wood, making him squeal a little. He turned to the owner of the hand, which was Shinn, and gave him a death glare. "What was that for, Loki?"

"For standing there like a statue," replied Shinn, trying to set off a mood. "Don't tell me you're not going to do anything? Your sister is right here!" He pointed directly at Cagalli.

"Sister?" muttered Cagalli, looking puzzlingly at Shinn. "What do you mean?"

"Oh yeah, I haven't told you about him yet." Shinn turned his head at Kira. "You see, Cagalli, he's your—"

"I'll tell her," Kira cut him off.

Shinn had no arguments there. He figured it would be better if it came out from Kira's own mouth rather than his. "Go ahead…"

Once again, he gazed upon his beloved sister who looked lovelier than ever. Sure, she was different than before, but she was still his younger twin. "Cagalli..." He sat down beside her and took her hand into his. "Or should I say Freya?" He was showing a smile beaming with radiance.

"Kira, you're a god too?" asked Cagalli.

"I'm actually Freyr, your brother." He was staring into her eyes like there was no tomorrow. He held onto her hand gently but securely, not wanting to let go.

And Cagalli could see it clearly in his eyes that he was telling no lie. "Freyr…brother…? You're my brother…?" Eyes widened in surprise, she merely convinced herself to think calmly. But why can't I remember him? He looked at his face and studied it a bit. Still, she can't recall anything about him.

"Freya, is everything all right?" Kira asked, noticing how quiet she was.

"I-I…" She muttered, shaking her head vigorously. She pulled her hands away from him and placed them on her head. "I can't remember you!" She trembled in fear.

"Freya, you can't remember your own brother?" Kira looked sad and hurt. He felt suddenly distant from her.

"I'm really sorry." She wrapped her arms around herself, trying to keep herself from breaking.

"I understand," he said sincerely, managing a half-smile. "There are still some missing pieces of you memories."

She turned and saw him holding his hand above her head. She figured that he was scanning her mind and memories with his powers. Aside from that she also noticed the frown on his face. It was unbearable.

"Look, I'm so sorry that I can't remember you." She simply turned her head away and closed her eyes.

Shinn felt rather sorry for Freyr. He wished he could do something for Freyr, but what can he possibly do?

Freyr, though, felt a screeching pain in his heart, and that pain was turning into a scar. With the situation bestowed upon him, he couldn't force his sister to remember him. He couldn't even locate any signs of his presence in her mind—not even a single one.

But at least he found his sister again. It took him 20,000 years, but it was all worth it.

"It's all right if you don't remember me." He pulled her to him and securely wrapped his harms around her. "What matters is that were together again…" he whispered, brushing his hand through her golden locks.

"Kira…" she said slowly and quietly. "I'm really sorry. I'll swear I'll get my memories back."

"Freya, even if you don't remember me, I'm still your brother." He tucked some hair behind her ear and kissed her head. "And I will always love you."

"Thank you…" A tear escaped from Cagalli's eyes. She didn't want to say it but the words tumbled out of her mouth: "Brother, I will also try to love you—even if I don't remember you yet." Her cheeks burned in deep shades of red.

Shinn suddenly felt the heavy drama. Of course, he didn't expect to see a god like Freyr act so sweet. Maybe he just forgot that I'm still here or maybe he's letting his emotions get the best of him? Nope, I guess not. He almost burst into laughter because of his thoughts. But I'm sure that he's like that because he finally found his sister.

To be continued…


JC: Okay, Cagalli can't remember Kira yet… That's too bad. Should I let her remember in the next chapter? Hmm… I'll think about it. I'm sorry if there were confusing parts in the story and for the wrong grammars as well. I kinda did this fast so I can update on time. Well, please review and no flaming.
