Chapter ElevenMeeting before the Concert~ The Minerva landedat the P.L.A.N.T's thirty minutes after Shinn and Stellar got out of the Locker Room. They waited for Athrun, Auel, and String, and Then they headed to the loading deck and walked out to see the sunlight brightly shining. Shinn looked up at the sky and sighs. ~“ This place reminds me of home, but this day looking up at the sky also reminds me of that terrible day months ago.” Shinn said as he had flash backs of the day Heliopolis was attacked.~ He shook his head and looked back down at the street beneath his feet. ~Stellar patted him on the back and said, “ To day is to be a happy day not a day of sorrow. Remember I will always be at your side, no matter what.”~ Shinn looked at her and smiled. ~“I know you will.” Said Shinn as he walked farther ahead.“ Hey, Shinn stop.” Said Athrun as he ran to him, “ We're meeting Cagalli, Lacus and Kira at the White Rose Symphony, which is right up the road from here. So follow me, Okay.” He said as he started to walk.“ Okay.” Said Shinn as he grabbed Stellar's hand and started to walk.“ Huh? Why are we walking so fast?” Asked Stellar as she looked up at Shinn.“ Because Athrun's a speed walker and I don't want to get lost. So we have to keep up with him.” Said Shinn as he kept his eye on Athrun.“ Wait where's Auel and Sting?” Asked Stellar looking around as much as she could.“ Oh they said they would meet us here, I'm guessing they know their way around here.” Said Shinn looking down at her for a second then moving his eye back to the back of Athrun's head.~ Athrun stopped infront of a huge building. Shinn stopped before he ran into Athrun and Stellar stopped with Shinn. Then someone came behind Shinn and tapped him on the shoulder. ~“ Athrun is that you?” Asked a girl with pink hair.“ Uh… no that's Athrun…I'm Shinn…Shinn Asuka.” Said Shinn looking at this girl with amazement.“ Oh… I'm sorry… I'm Lacus Clyne and this is my fiancée Kira Yamato.” Said Lacus, “ I swear you look identical to Athrun from the back and your friend here looks like Cagalli from the back too.” She said with a smile.~ Stellar turned around and was star struck. Her eyes widened and her mouth dropped but she recovered quickly so no one saw but Shinn. ~“ You're the Lacus Clyne. I can't believe I actually get to meet you… Are you the one singing tonight?” Asked Stellar still in aw.“ No it's a girl that looks a lot like me though her name is Meer. She's an okay singer, but I have to say I'm still the best singer in the P.L.A.N.T's. I know it sound's a little self centered but I think it might as well be true.” Said Lacus with a little smile.“ Oh Lacus, We know you're a good sing but you have only sang a few songs after the war ended.” Said Athrun walking into the conversation.“ Athrun, How good it is to see you again, I have missed your naïve behavior.” Said Lacus.~ Shinn could tell that Lacus was trying to push Athrun's buttons. ~“ Well shall we be heading inside?” Asked Kira in a quiet tone.“ I'm going to wait out here for Cagalli, Auel, and Sting a little while longer then I'll be in.~ Shinn looked at Athrun then to Lacus and thought to himself, “ There must be some bad blood boiling there, or else I'm just totally off my rocker.” ~“ Okay Shinn and um… I don't think I got your name miss.” Said Lacus.“ Oh… I'm Stellar… Stellar Loussier.” Said Stellar in a hurry.“ Oh… Okay then Shinn and Stellar follow me, this way.” Said Lacus and she grabbed Shinn's hand and pulled him into a huge crowd of people.~ Shinn held on to Stellar for Dear life as Lacus and Kira dragged him to the front of the building. Then they made it to the front doors and opened them. ~“ Okay we made it this far.” Said Stellar out of breath.“ Oh… Sorry… I don't like big crowds of people that is why I hurried through.” Said Kira red in the face from running through all the people.~ A few minute's went by and Athrun, Cagalli, Auel and Sting all came through the door. ~“ There are way to many damn people out there. It's scary.” Said Auel breathing hard.“ Ah… not as many people that came to see Lacus her first time performing though.” Said Athrun and Kira.“ So shall we go find our seats?” Asked Cagalli.“Sure let's go.” Said Kira in a rush.~ Everyone followed Lacus and Kira along the long lugurious hallway. T ff and the curtains fell open with one light shining on a attractive girl that looked almost identical to Lacus. Silence filled the music hall then out of nowhere music came. Meer began to sing almost techno I still hear your voice when you sleep next to meI still feel your touch in my dreamForgive me my weaknessBut I don't know whyWithout you it's hard to survive Cuz every time we touch I get this feeling And every time we kiss I swear I could flyCan't you hear my heart beat fast? I want this to lastI need you by my sideAnd every time we touch I feel the static And every time we kiss I reach for the skyCan't you hear my heart beat so?I can't let you goWant you in my life~ Everyone got up and started to dance to the music. Then Shinn looked at Stellar and she looked back at him as she started to dance, spin, and sing along. ~ Your arms are my castle Your heart is my sky They wipe away tears that I cryThe good and the bad time We've been through them allYou make me rise when I fallCuz every time we touch I get this feeling And every time we kiss I swear I could flyCan't you hear my heart beat fast?I want this to lastNeed you by my sideAnd every time we touch I feel the staticAnd every time we kiss I reach for the skyCan't you hear my heart beat so?I can't let you goWant you in my lifeAnd every time we touch I get this feeling And every time we kiss I swear I could fly Can't you hear my heart beat fast?I want this to last Need you by my side~ After the song was over the whole hall got quiet and listened. Then Meer looked down again as if she looked sad and depressed. Then she looked back up and more techno music began as she sang. ~Remember the feeling Remember the dayMy stone heart was breaking My love ran awayThis moment I knew I would be someone elseMy love turned around and I feltBe my bad boy Be my man Be my weekend lover But don't be my friendYou can be my bad boy but understand That I don't need you in my life againWon't you be my bad boy? Be my man Be my weekend lover But don't be my friendYou can be my bad boy but understand That I don't need you again~ Shinn was watching Stellar dance along with Cagalli and Lacus and thought to himself, “ To night is the best night of my life!” Then Shinn, Athrun and Kira all ran and started dancing with the girls Then Meer began to sing again. ~You once made this promise to stay by my sideBut after some time you just pushed me asideYou never thought that a girl could be strongNow I'll show you how to go onBe my bad boy Be my man Be my weekend loveBut don't be my friendYou can be my bad boy but understandThat I don't need you in my life againWon't you be my bad boy?Be my man Be my weekend loverBut don't be my friendYou can be my bad boy but understand That I don't need you againNo I don't need you again.~ After the song finished Stellar looked at Shinn then back to the stage, Lacus then walked up to Shinn. ~“ You know Meer is right now stealing my identity.” Said Lacus in Shinn's ear. “ What!? Why would she want to do something like that?” Asked Shinn in amazement. “ Because she was told to by myself to do so. I told her to do this for me because we need peace again and that's what most of my songs usually about peace and happiness, But this is not what I expected.” Said Lacus as she looked back to the stage. “ I really think I should go up there and sing my true songs again. Like Fields of Hope or Token of Water some of my favorite songs.” Said Lacus looking back at Shinn. “ You should Lacus. She's leaving the stage go tell her you want to sing.” Said Shinn with confidence. “ Hell I'll go with you, no everyone in our group will go with you as guards. Said Shinn looking at Lacus. “ You need to go back to the place you first sang, up there on that stage. Not a wanna be you.” “ You're right Shinn. Okay Kira, Athrun, Cagalli, Stellar, Auel, Shinn, and Sting lets go to the stage.” Said Lacus as she smiled lightly.~ Everyone looked at her. As if she were mad but Shinn. ~“But why Lacus?” Asked Kira questionably.“ Well I want to sing one of my songs Kira, That's why.” Said Lacus as she started to walk towards the stage. ~ Everyone chased her. So no one would be able to see that she was the real Lacus Clyne. ~“ Meer?” Said Lacus as she tapped Meer on the shoulder. “ Oh! Lacus! You scared me. Whatcha need?” Asked Meer. “Meer, I was wondering if I could sing one of my songs.” Said Lacus as she looked at Meer with a serious look. ~ Meer thought about this as she looked into Lacus's eyes ~“ Fine, go ahead.” Said Meer with an annoyed tone.“ Hey, Meer right…” said Shinn and Stellar at the same time.“ Yeah that's me.” Said Meer looking at them both of them with an ugly look.“ Excuse me! Don't ever give me a look like that again, Unless you want to get into a brawl hore.” Said Stellar with a pissed off look on her face. “ I mean come on at least I'm not in the sleazy dress that shows mostly all my cleavage and V- cuts like a frickin' thong in the front then leafs out into a dress.”~ Everyone looked at Stellar who was now in battle mode. Then Meer looked at Stellar. ~“ You wouldn't even survive a minute because I have all of Lacus's body guards. You would die in a matter of seconds.” Said Meer with a horrible grin.~ Stellar's eyes went from regular size to saucer size in a matter of seconds. Then she began to scream. As she turned around and ran off. ~“ You horrible bitch, you did it now!” Yelled Sting and Auel as they looked at Meer.~ Lacus stood infront of Meer and held her hands up. ~“ Boy's go fine Stellar and calm her down.” Said Lacus Calmly.“ Shinn's already on it.” Said Auel looking angry with Lacus.“ Please do not start a fight. This is not the place to do it if you do fight.” Said Lacus calmly.~ Everyone looked at Lacus. Then Shinn and Stellar reappeared from the crowd. Stellar still had tears in her eyes. ~“ What did I say something to hurt your feelings?” Said Meer now looking pissed off at Stellar.“ Leave her be Meer!” Yelled Lacus. “ I'm going on stage and that's that.” ~ Lacus ushered everyone to the dressing room and as she got changed they all waited outside. Everyone was looking at Stellar who still was crying. ~“ Stellar… Stellar… Are you okay?” Asked Shinn as he shook her to get her to get out of her blank face stare.“ Huh? Oh… I… I'm… Ok… Okay…” Said Stellar looking at Shinn.“ Okay…” Said Shinn as he let go of her shoulders.~ Lacus came out of the dressing room and had a clean-cut outfit on. ~“Okay, I'm ready.” Said Lacus as she looked at everyone.~ So they walked back to the stage. ~“ Good luck Lacus.” Said Cagalli and Stellar.“ Thank you, you guys.” Said Lacus and she walked onto the stage.~ Everyone in the audience got quiet. ~Then Lacus began to sing a slow melody.Konna ni tsumetai tobari no fukaku deBeneath a veil so cold Anata wa hitori de, nemutteruYou deeply sleep, all aloneInori no utagoe; sabishii nohara wo,The melody of prayer; On the lonely fieldsChiisa na hikari ga terashitetaA little light shinedAnata no yume wo mitetaI watched as you dreamed Kodomo no youni warattetaYou laughed like a childNatsukashiku mada tookuSo dear, and yet so far-Sore wa mirodi no yakusokuThat is the promise of our futureItsuka midori no asa niThat one day, on a green morningItsuka tadoritsukeru toOne day. We will make it thereFuyugareta kono sora woBecause in this wintered skyShinjiteiru karaWe still believeFields of HopeUmarete kita hi ni dakshimete kuretaOn the day we were born, we were embracedYasashii ano te wo sagashiteruAnd now we search for those gentle hands againInori no utagoe kiete mata hajimaruThe melody of prayer, one vanishes Tayorinaku setsunaku tsuzukuAnd all begins again, A powerless, painful continuationItsuka midori no asa eOne day, to that green morning Subete no yoru wo koeteWe'll cross through all these nightsSore wa tada hitori zutsu mitsukete yuku basho dakaraBecause that is the place each one of us searches for.Ima wa tada kono mune deNow, within my own heart Anata wo atatametai I want to keep you warm Natsukashiku mada tooi So dear, and yet so far Yasuragi no tame ni The fields of promise Fields or Hope Fields of Hope~ Everyone in the audience had tears in their eyes. Shinn opened his sisters pink cell phone and clinched it in his fist tightly. Everyone in their group noticed this. Then silent tears began to trickle down Shinn's face. ~ “ Shinn, what's wrong?” asked Stellar as she grabbed his hand with the cell phone in it. “Please tell me.” She said as she looked into his eyes.“ I… I can't stand being alone in this world. Mia, Mother, and father are all gone. All I have left is my little sister's cell phone.” He said as he showed her the pink cell phone.~ Lacus got quiet. ~“ This song is for all who have husbands, wives, girlfriends and boyfriends or family members in this horrible war.~ She began to sing. ~Shizukana kono yoru ni anata wo matteru noIn this quiet night, I'm waiting for youAno toki wasureta hohoemi wo tori ni kiteDuring that time, your smile has faded awayArekara sukoshi dake jikan ga sugiteNow that a little time has passed,Omoide ga yasashiku natta ne Fond memories start to resurface.Hoshi no furu basho deHold me close,Anata ga waratte irukoto woAt the place that the stars fall,Istumo negattetaI'm always wishing for your laughter,Ima tookutemoEven though we're apart nowMata aeru yo neWe can meet again right?Itsu kara hohoemi wa konna ni hakanakute From when has my smile faded this muchHitotsu no machigaide kowarete shimau karaSince it was shattered by one mistakeTaisetsuna mono dake wo hikari ni kaeteChange only the precious things into light andTooi sora koete yuku tsuyosadeGo beyond the sky with fortitude.Hoshi no furu basho de Hold me close,Omoi wo anata no todoketaiTo a place where stars fall Itsumo soba ni iruI want my thought to reach youSono tsumetasa wo dakishimeru karaI am always by your side, Since I will embrace that coldnessIma toukutemo, kitto aeruneEven though we're apart now, We will definitely be back togetherShizukana yoru niIn the quiet night~ At the end of this song everyone gave a standing novation to Lacus. ~ “ Thank you all for coming and listening to me sing.” Said as she bowed to the crowd.~ Lacus walked of the stage and walk to her group. ~“ It felt good to sing again.” Said Lacus as she smiled and Kira.“ I bet it does.” Said Cagalli with a laugh.“You were great.” Said Shinn, Stellar, Athrun, Auel, Sting, and Cagalli.“Thank you all so much for being here for me.” Said Lacus with a smile
