A Summer's Vacation Chapter 2 Arrival, a gundam seed fanfic

A Summer's Vacation

Author's Note: I've finally decided that the homeland will be Plants. So Cagalli's parents are from the Plants, but Cagalli and Stella were both born in Orb. By the way, I got a review from Mage666 regarding the plot and characters. So just to clarify, Cagalli's family consists of herself, Via, Ulen, and Stella. In Plants, she meets her two aunts and uncles who are Patrick&Lenore and Mu&Murrue. But as you know, Patrick and Lenore have a son who is Athrun Zala and that is how he becomes Cagalli's cousin. And as the plot happens to be, they've never met before and Cagalli wasn't prepared to meet him either. She didn't even know he existed. On the other hand, he knew about her and…well there are some surprises that I shall not spoil here xD lol. So anyways, that's some clarifications from the characters. Oh! And Lacus, Kira, Miriallia, and Dearka are all close friends of Cagalli that will come in later. Thanks for the reviews! Please keep it up!! Now enjoy the second chapter =)!!

Disclaimer: I do not own Gundam SEED or Gundam SEED Destiny along with its' characters. I only own the plot of this fanfiction.

Chapter 2 – Arrival

"What a long ride…" Cagalli thought as she stretched out her numbing limbs. Everyone was just exiting the plane as she yawned. Finally they had arrived in Plants. Cagalli was getting up from her seat, prepared to join the line of people exiting the plane, when she felt a tug on her shirt sleeve. She looked down to wide, innocent violet eyes. It was her sweet loving younger sister, Stella. Sure, Stella was an adopted sister, but Cagalli loved her just as much as she would a blood related sister. They were surprisingly very close and got along great, which is why Ulen and Via had decided to adopt her.

Cagalli held onto Stella's hand, got their carryon luggage from the compartment above their heads, and got off the plane along with their parents. Cagalli felt very protective of her little sister, so she held her close and waited quietly while their parents got their luggage. Once they had their luggage, all together as a family they left the airport to meet up with one of Cagalli's uncles. She was excited to finally meet one of her uncle's. They were to rendezvous with one of her uncle's and he would take them back to his house where they would be staying for majority of the trip.

They didn't have to wait long after exiting the airport. Soon they heard someone shout "ULEN! OVER HERE!!" Cagalli looked over and saw a pale man with blond hair and blue eyes. He jogged up to Ulen and pulled him into a hug while patting him on the back. Via just stood back while genuinely smiling at the two. Cagalli stood there staring at the two. She'd never seen someone approach her father like that. Stella yawned and leaned against Cagalli as if she was about to fall asleep.

Ulen finally managed to pull his brother off of him and just shook hands.

The oddly energetic man laughed and said, "Still as unaffectionate as you always were. You never do change, do you brother?"

Ulen smiled and replied, "Not when it concerns you, no my brother."

The man who claimed to be my father's brother grunted and muttered "Boy, do I ever pity Via. She probably doesn't get enough love from you."

At that point, the strange man turned to my mother and gave her a much gentler, yet still just as loving hug.

She hugged back and said, "It's very nice to see you again Mu."

He chuckled and said, "Yes, you too. You only get more beautiful every time I see you."

"Why thank you, but I wonder what Murrue would think if she heard you say that," asked Via.

"Oh, well she'd think nothing of it, for I speak the truth and nothing but the truth," replied Mu.

Via laughed. "Well if it helps any, you seem to only get younger."

Between the three of them, they continued talking and making small jokes until I cleared my throat to get their attentions. It worked. Mu instantly pounced on me and Stella due to the fact that she was still leaning against me. He grabbed us and pulled us into tight hugs.

He said, "Well well, you two must be Cagalli and Stella! I've heard SO much about you two and I'm so glad to finally meet you! I'm one of your uncle's, Mu La Flaga, but just call me uncle Mu. Now, allow me to take a good look at you two." He pulled them back and looked up and down. Cagalli felt a little uncomfortable being scrutinized like so, but she complied and stood still. Stella on the other hand, had no problem staying still and just waited patiently.

"Mhmmm. Very good, very good. You've been looked after well. Grown into such lovely young ladies." Mu complimented.

"Well, what did you expect? Some dirty girls in tattered clothing?" asked Ulen.

"No, no, no. It's just a surprise at how much they both share your looks equally. It's lovely. Very lovely," said Mu.

Cagalli was at a loss for words. She gave up on understanding her new uncle and parents.

Stella yawned again and rubbed her eyes. "Can we go home now?" she asked innocently.

"Oh right! Yes, yes, yes. Okay, I've rented a cab so let's all get going now. The others should be expecting us soon." Mu ushered us all into a cab that had driven up to the curb. The driver had put our luggage into the trunk of the cab, got back into the car, and then we were off. Off to go home, wherever that is.

And that is the second chapter! I was going to write more about the drive home, but I found that last sentence to be a good place to end. It just sounded right. So when you review, if you could please let me know if you want to know about the drive home then I can easily add some details in the beginning of the next chapter. If not, then it's not a big deal either. So you know the drill: Please Read&Review!! Thanks everyone :3!!
