Prologue
" Let her go!" He threatened her captor with the gun in his hands.
" Is this all you've got, the great Heero Yuy?" The other man smirked while tightening his grip on her and the gun pointing at her temple.
More than ten other preventers surrounded the trio as her captor retreated toward the end of the cliff. There was nothing below except raging currents and sharp rocks. There was nothing beyond except a sea of hopelessness.
" Just give up and let her go! You've reached the end of the line." Heero Yuy spoke calmly, yet he knew that one wrong move both the enemy and his victim would fall forever into oblivion.
" So what? If I go, she'll be right there with me." The thought on everyone's mind was spoken.
And Heero Yuy wasn't going to just let her go that easily, not when the world still needed her, not when he still needed her.
Relena Dorlain remained dignified in the arm of her captor. She had struggled but to no avail. Her mouth was sealed with duct tape, and her hands were cuffed in the front. Her eyes, full of trust, stared intensely into the eyes of her rescuer. She was afraid, but she had prepared for this day long ago. Death, in the words of Dorothy Catalonia, was the end result of birth. She feared not death but the thought of never seeing his face, never touching his skin, never looking into the eyes of Heero Yuy.
She gasped as her captor torn off the tape on her mouth. The pain was immense, but she was glad to finally breathe again.
" Any last words, Vice Foreign Minister?" A derisive tone.
" Heero..."
Relena... She could hear him speak her name one last time before he fired the shot. The bullet hit right through the head of her captor. It was supposed to be a clean shot, but as the man fell forward he managed to push her back toward the edge before Heero could reach her in time.
" Relena!" She heard him yell her name as he plunged after her.
Helplessly, she fell into the icy water, and the last thing she saw was him trying to reach for her before everything went black.
It was supposed to be a clean shot...
