First Person POV
****************
It's been about a
year..yes, a year since Duo's place. A
year since
the capture and the threat of the death of the Pilots. The Gundam Pilots.
Ever since the news has reported of the San Mateo encampment
being blown
up, probably from an accident, nothing was heard for two
months.
But that wasn't the
end, no, of course it wasn't. The
pilots never
give up till they finish their mission. And they will finish it, no matter
what.
All of the Pilots,
including me, got our Gundams from their hideouts
and took off. To
where? To the desert base. We had to lie low for
those months, to recuperate and figure out where Kyoko
Yoarashi went
off. Once we found
out, we went to the source. She was a
bit surprised
to see us, I could tell from her eyes. A bit of fear, shock, and anger
entered those dark pupils.
Her death was slow and painful and without
sound except for the groans that escaped her lips.
Then we...well actually, I, took the liberty to destroy
Asa. Her death
was quick but painful at the same time.
Her last
words...was one that surprised me. Yes,
I was surprised.
Me, a Gundam Pilot.
When she died, I almost felt a bit guilty but hid
that. Asa still had
to go, she is an enemy and killed innocent people in
the past. But still...what she told me...*sigh*
It can't be helped..it's done and over with.
All of us took our
Gundams and destroyed any remaining bases or mobile
dolls, Leos', Taurus', or anything that could possibly be a
threat. Then
went on back, back to home.
You ask about
Relena, you say? Well she's actually alive.
Has both
bad and good aspects to it.
Mostly bad. I never say it
outloud, but
she annoys me. When
she woke up from the hospital bed in the Sanq Kingdom,
she forgave us for shooting her and went on with her
life. Stalking and
squeezing the life out of...well you know.
She gave pardon to
us pilots and visited one of the members of the
pilots in the hospital. He was hurt during battle and
severly. He didn't
quite escape the blast from one of the bases around the
desert. To
think that after so many years as a pilot, he would be
caught up
in something like that?
But I guess, accidents do happen.
They happen
all the time...
As I was
saying...Relena pardoned us from trying to kill her and we
celebrated for our victory against Kyoko Yoarashi's
troops. That's
about it, I guess!

The End.
Well there's your
ending! Cool, isn't it? *sigh*
a semi-happy
ending just for you.
Serena's dead, and the others are healthy and
happy except for one of them. Just fill in your heads on who got
hurt and all that stuff and mourn over Serena's death while
getting
angry over Relena's recovery. ^^;;;
Well see ya! ^_~
If you honestly
think, that that's the ending well.. too bad! That's
not all of it, buddy!
Do you think I would leave it that way?
Keeping
all of you to picture in your mind who said that or who was
hurt?
I am not exactly that kind of person! Sure, I leave some cliffhangers
but not as badly...I think.. -_-;; Some other authors give great
cliffhangers that make me suffer and wait till the next
chapter comes
up...boy, that was horrible. Making me suffer and wait..aghh..why am
I talking like this?
I should be writing the continuation other than
babbling! ^_^;;
SORRY EVERYONE!! HERE'S THE REST OF THE
STORY!
**************
It was slightly
dark in the sky, with small specks of stars gazing
over the horizon and the full moon that shone overhead. Beautiful,
calm, peaceful, and comforting. It wasn't cold and it wasn't warm,
just right. Simply
right.
A figure could be
seen jogging down the street and took a left
turn into a...school.
The figure continued on and up the steps. Then
paused at the topmost step and gazed at the dark, star
filled sky.
If you looked close
enough, you would find out that it is a girl and
as she rose up her hand and pulled back her hood, she has a
long mane of
golden blond hair done up in odangoes(((meatballs))). The lone girl
gazed wonderingly at the sky, waiting for something...or
someone.
(After a long time,
I've waited. Coming back here every
morning to
see if you've come back.
But you haven't, at least not yet.
And through
all this time, I've found out my feelings to who I love out
of all of you.
I love...I love...)Serena said to herself.
"You're
early,"a deep voice said from behind her.
(It...can't
be..after so long...)gasped Serena as she slowly turned
around.
There leaning
against the pole is Heero Yuy. He wore
his regular
clothes and same expression on his face.
"You
came,"Serena uttered.
"As did
you. I told you I would come when I
can,"Heero said.
"And I would
wait, here. On our spot,"Serena's
eyes softened.
For minutes, they
stood there. Staring at each other and
thinking
that this was just a dream, a wonderful dream.
"For a time, I
thought you were dead..."Heero finally broke the silence.
"Dead? Why would you think that?"Serena asked,
cocking her head to
the side.
"Kyoko sent a
woman, named Asa, to Duo's place in San Francisco and
when she returned..she said that she took care of her
business there
by killing and finding some things,"Heero told her.
"Yes, I
remember that day..."Serena's eyes saddened.
"It was night
time and we were getting ready to go because Quatre
told us to. Rashid
was standing on top of the staircase, smiling down
at me and me up at him.
Then a gun shot fired and the next thing I knew,
he was dead. I
rushed to him, crying over his death. A
second shot
went out and it grazed my shoulder. It was painful, but I didn't waste
anymore time. I picked
myself up and ran out of the open doorway.
Looking back, I saw a young woman with a gun and fired at me
again.
It hit me on the side but I kept up my pace, ignoring the
horrible
pain.
Luckily, that woman
didn't follow me and I got myself to the hospital
to be treated. When
daylight came, I noticed that I didn't have my
tickets with me so when I came to the airport I had to
purchase
another ticket going back to Tokyo, instead, by using a
different name.
Now my name is back to Serena, without the last name. It's Serena
Maxwell now,"Serena told Heero.
"And you've
been here ever since..."Heero nodded his head and walked
to her side.
Both were silent,
once the sun began to rise. Swirls of
delightful
colors danced upon the sky.
Making the stars vanish replaced by
the sky-blue sky and the moon gone as the sun took its
place.
"It's been
awhile, I've heard that Relena Peacecraft got you guys
off the hook and that several bases were destroyed by the Gundams.
That means you five, doesn't it?"Serena finally said.
"Hn."Heero nodded in reply,"does that bother you?"
"No, not at
all. As long as you guys are safe, it's
okay with me. I
was worried, when the San Mateo base was blown up...I
thought that..
you were all dead..."Serena whispered out, bowing her
head.
"We got out,
Trowa saw a few grenades on the floor under several
officers' body and threw it at the wall. We ran out just as the
last bomb was set off and escaped, barely alive. Once we were okay,
we went after Kyoko Yoarashi in the desert regions. We all killed
Kyoko and I did Asa by myself while the others were just
coming around
the corner. She told
me, with the others there, that you managed to
escape but shot you on your way down the street,"Heero
said.
"That was just
a few months ago...why didn't you come here?"Serena
asked softly.
"At first, I
went back to San Francisco to the beach.
I stayed there
for a few weeks and then had some business over at the Sanq
Kingdom.
Then, the guys and I, went here. So here I am,"Heero explained.
"I see...I'm
glad that you're back,"Serena smiled at him.
He smiled back and
looked down into her crystalline blue eyes.
"After all
this time..."Heero began, his prussian blue eyes gazing
into hers. He tilted
her chin and lowered his head, wanting to get
a better look of her eyes.
"...mmm?"Serena mumbled, her own eyes examining his.
(His eyes...it
holds a new feature in it, something I've seen before
but now that I look at it closely and compare it to the
past. It
reminds me of...of that painting. That painting in Quatre's mansion.)
"After all
this time I've known you, you haven't changed.
Your
eyes are still the same, innocent, but as you look deeper
into those
blue eyes of yours...you know that there's also more to
it. You've
seen so many that many have not but keep your
innocence. It's
mesmerizing...I don't know why, but it is,"Heero
murmered.
"The
painting...that's what it is like..."Serena said in a hushed
whisper.
"What
painting?"Heero quietly asked, his eyes never leaving hers.
"In Quatre's
mansion, there's a painting that I've seen before. I
can't get enough of it, wanting to know the secrets behind
that
dense fog. And in
your eyes, I can almost see it. See
through
the fog and know what's beyond it,"Serena told him.
"And what do
you see?"Heero asked.
"I see...I
see..."Serena mumbled as she got closer to him and he
to her.
"I see..love,
compassion, and concern. I see two
people, who love
one another, outside and together by themselves. Outside, wrapped
against one another, staring at the sky. That's what I see,"Serena
told him.
As those last words
left her mouth, Heero bent down and kissed her
on the lips. It was warm,
soft, gentle, and held so much love at the
same time. The
simple, chaste kiss held so many feelings and promises
of love...in return to his kiss, she responded and he felt
her feelings
for him open up.
When it was over, they stared at one another in the
eye with a flushed face.
"I never did
tell you, how I really felt,"Heero uttered softly, filled
with so many feelings.
"And I
you,"Serena snuggled closer to him.
"I love you,
my Yumetenshi,"Heero said with love and compassion.
"And I love
you, Heero..."Serena blushed lightly as she said those
words and heard his nickname for her.
"My
Yumetenshi..."Heero hugged her closer to him, never wanting to
let go,"my dream angel."
"Whatever
happened to the others, though?"Serena wondered, a bit
concerned for her friends.
"Wufei got
hurt, but he's okay. He should be. Quatre is back at the
house, his work piled up for him. He was sad and mourned over
the loss of Rashid, when he found out that he was dead. Duo is at the
house, too, he'll be leaving to go to L2 Colony. He said that the reminder
of you, let him realize that he misses Hilde and wants to
return to her
soon. Trowa is at
Quatre's as well. You know, he cares
about
you too.."Heero whispered to her.
"Trowa..."Usagi's eyes softened at the remembrance of him.
"Do you love
him? More than me?"Heero asked,
his heart seemed to beat
slower than usual.
His heart started to feel a gnawing pain, knowing
that if she said that she did love Trowa more than him...he
may start
to die.
(Yumetenshi...whatever you decide...I'll still love you, more than
anyone else. If you
choose, Trowa Barton over me...I won't be able
to hold it against you.
I want you to be happy, anything to keep you
content and have a smile arrive on your face..even if it
means that I
won't be able to hold you in my arms, I'll give up anything, even if it
causes my life.)Heero said inside his head, as he waited for
her answer.
"I love
Trowa...I really do,"Serena said, and gazed up into his eyes.
(She...she loves
him. She really does...)Heero started
to feel
a great pain clutch within his heart. He gulped down the scream that
wanted to come out from his mouth and continued to stare at
her
crystalline blue eyes.
"I love him,
Heero. I love Trowa....but,"Serena
continued to say.
(But? There's still hope.)Heero felt some hope
rise within his heart.
"But...I love
him as I would for a close friend..or a sibling. A great
companion that I could trust and look to for comfort. I trust him
as I do you. I feel
the same with the others but you two, you two I care
about the most.
Trowa as a brother, a close sibling, and you as something
more...as someone to love,"Serena told him with a light
smile.
Her eyes were glowing,
holding a great amount of love, light, innocence,
and purity. He held
so much joy, finding out that she truly loves
him, and only him.
His Yumetenshi, he can truly call her as his now. His
love...his dream angel.
"I'm
glad...boku wa tenshi, yumetenshi,"Heero smiled back at her, a small
warm smile.
She yawned as she
lazily laid back into his arms and looked at the
clear blue sky and then up at him.
"After all
this time, lots of thing has changed and happened. My life
has been so hectic and complicated. I've met and lost so many. But in
the end, you're still here and you went from a mysterious
stranger to
the one I love. I
think that you're what that dream meant,"Serena
told him.
"That dream
you spoke about so long ago?"Heero wondered.
"Yes, the one
with the flames and the unknown figure.
The figure is
always there, appearing and disappearing. In a way, whenever it comes,
I feel comforted. I figure that the flames, ashes, bones,
and the screams
represent the loss that I have felt and met. And when that person comes,
it is you who is there I find comfort from in the end. From the beginning
to the end..."Serena explained.
"Hn."Heero nodded thoughtfully and stared down at the girl who
was
almost asleep in his arms.
"I'm so
tired...I woke up early and I couldn't go back to sleep. So I
went out for a jog...took me two times around the
city..."Serena yawned,
covering her mouth with her right hand.
"Let's go home
then,"Heero stated and started to steer her down the
stairs.
"Home? With you?"Serena gazed up at him.
"Yes, home
with me. With all of us: Quatre, Duo, Trowa, and Wufei..
once he's back on his feet,"Heero smiled down at the
girl in his arms.
"Home...home
with you..and the others. My
family..."Serena said.
Heero nodded and
Serena hugged him then started to drag him down
the stairs with a big smile on her face.
(Time has changed
so many things. Maybe everything. But in
the end, it was for the better. I have a home where a family
is there to wait for me.
Where Heero waits for me and me for him.
Finally...)Serena smiled inwardly, her heart swelling with
joy.
And far away,
inside a certain room of the Winner mansion a
portrait sits and the fog painted in it swirls and
swirls. It's
thickness thinning and finally its secret comes out. A couple
sits on a patch of grass next to a gazebo, gazing at the
crescent moon among the stars in the sky. Both holding hands
and the boy whispering a secret into the young girl's
ear.
Whispering his promises of eternal love that will last
throughout all time.
