Kira x Murrue fanfic - Epilouge
Disclaimer: I don't own Gundam SEED or Gundam SEED Destiny, so please point that damned lawsuit cannon at someone else!
Author's note (1): The Chosen Path by MapleRose is highly similar to how my fic starts off, however, my fic is in no way a copy, nor is it meant to be one.
Author's note (2): Also, I suppose that this fic can be considered an A/U continuation of Destiny, since, I changed the story so that Neo Roanoke's DNA does not match that of Mu La Flaga.
"I'll give my life so that you can live the rest of yours in peace. I hope that you and Kira have a good life together, I love him with all my heart and I hope that he will be happy with you. Please remember me." Lacus Clyne said as the Eternal plowed forward, disregarding the desperate mobile suits in front of it.
Murrue squeezed her eyes shut, and the Strike Freedom offered a grim salute.
On the bridge, Lacus saluted back, and smiled as the Strike Freedom quickly pulled away.
The Eternal slammed into the positron shield which was protecting the Requiem cannon, bursting through with a crash and a shriek of twisting metal. It sped down into the depths of the cannon, on the bridge, as sparks and smoke filled the air, Lacus's eyes flashed.
The Eternal then fired its remaining anti-air guns and missiles into the mouth of the cannon. The Requiem exploded but as the blast approached the bridge, it seemed to slow. Lacus once again faced the communications screen.
Murrue noticed that she and Lacus still seemed to be moving at normal speed, while everything around them had slowed down to a crawl. Murrue watched as Lacus's smile turned into a twisted, anger filled scowl, then the window cracked and shattered.
In an instant, the life-giving heat and oxygen were sucked from the Eternal's bridge. Lacus simply continued to stare into the communications screen with her now empty eye sockets amid a freeze-dried and cracked face of blue skin.
Murrue watched in horror, finding that she was unable to turn away as Lacus's corpse screamed at her. "NOT ONLY DID YOU TAKE KIRA AWAY FROM ME, BUT YOU ALSO DROVE ME TO SUICIDE!!!"
Murrue awoke with a scream of terror, quickly sitting up in the bed and wiping the tears from her eyes. She sat there for a moment, simply staring into the darkness of the room as more tears slid down her cheeks, until finally she whimpered. "I have kept my promise to Lacus, so why am I suddenly being haunted by those nightmares again?"
Kira had been awakened by Murrue's scream and he was now gently holding her, in an attempt to help her calm down. She had begun having these nightmares a week ago and had already told Kira about them. As a result, he didn't need to ask her anything about the nightmares, he would only ask about them if she wanted to discuss them.
Two years had passed since the last war had ended. Murrue and Kira were, indeed, very happy together. The two of them had decided to get married about one year after the war had ended.
The Minerva, which hadn't been destroyed in the final battle, had been captured and repaired by the the Three Ships Alliance, which was now known as the Clyne Faction. The Minerva along with its crew were now a part of Clyne Faction. The ZAFT Eternal-class ship Deliverance had also been captured by the Clyne Faction, this ship, like the Minerva, had also been repaired, but in addition it had also been repainted in a bright pink, and had been renamed; Eternal II.
Murrue and Kira were currently expecting a baby girl and they had already decided to name the child; Lacus Clyne Yamato, in honor of Lacus, who had bravely sacrificed her own life, in order to help end the last war.
After a few minutes, Murrue slowly stood and walked out to the balcony overlooking the large garden, which was fillied with beautiful white, pink and red roses.
The mansion had actually been owned by Seigel Clyne, before he had been killed in the first war. Obviously it was then passed down to his daughter, Lacus Clyne, but after Lacus had sacrificed herself to end the second war, the huge house didn't have an owner. However that only lasted for a few months, since Kira and Murue quickly decided to buy the huge estate.
Kira followed Murrue onto the balcony a few minutes later and wrapped his arms around her waist as he rested his head on her back. The night air was cool, and the moon shone down, casting a heavenly, pearly sheen on the area.
Murrue sighed softly as she looked into the sky. If she had a small telescope, and had been looking towards the moon, she would have noticed twin trails of green light streaking through the blackness before finally disappearing with a flash.
