Chapter 11

Emptiness, it was before him, emptiness. The emptiness of losing his brother. The emptiness of the combat that he so dreamed and desired since his youth. The emptiness of being alone and uncared for by any. The emptiness of life that fate had denied him. The emptiness of death. He has concluded that the emptiness was his fate, his destiny, his end towards life. He has long since embarrassed the emptiness for that is what's left of his existence. Everything that he had planned, everything that he had dreamed and everything that he loved was gone. All that was left was the emptiness, the emptiness that he could not deny. He awaited for oblivion when a blinding flash of light caught him off guard. The light beckoned him to follow but he refuses, crying out why should he return to life when it is not the life that he wanted, nothing but a life of emptiness. The light then dragged him into the world of the living, the would in which he would spend day after agonizing day of emptiness and loneliness of a forsaken life. Before him he saw people that were familiar to him. First he noticed his brother, he had come back. But then he also saw the seductress, the one who led him astray from him. Then there was the Hunters, the Sterlings, his Chief Officers Midii Une and Sylvia Noventa and Number One. But there were others that he did not know. People he was unsure of, people that he did not trust.
"Are you awake?" He heard Sylvia Noventa ask him in a motherly voice. He was confused, why would she ask him like that. "Can you speak?" He felt groggy and light headed. Then he remembered about the bullet, did he lose that much blood?
"W-where am I-I?" He couldn't speak properly. His jaw felt aged, the larynx unused, the tongue was dry of saliva. How long had he been unconscious? Two, three days? "H-How l-long?"
"You're in the St. Amnesty Hospital in Brussels. You were unconscious for about three months." Three Months? How could that be? He estimated his body patterns to be only days. Did it slow down? Had he miscalculated? What has happened?
"W-what h-happened?" Then the group smiled. He did not like this, not at all.
"While you were unconscious, the Alliance between the Earth Sphere Unified Nation and the Third Earth Government had flourished and peace is greater and better than it had been before." Nothing to worry about. Peace is never lasting, nor is War. Both exist in a never-ending cycle of dependence; one could not exist without the other and yet one cannot exist while the other is present. "Your Chief Intelligents Officer, Midii Une, married her long lost love Trowa Barton." Not good news. The Chief Commander wasn't liking how this was going. "And best of all, Heero and Relena are married, she's now your sister-in-law."
'That's it!' Chief Commander thought to himself 'The world has just ended. Someone kill me now. Life is not worth living anymore! Kill me now and end my suffering!' The Chief Commander was not liking this turn of events. How could the world go so wrong in such a short period of time. Even the seductress didn't have enough time to convert him.
"And that's not all."
'By the ancestors,' The Chief Commander thought to himself again. 'what could be worst? I am not isolated from my perfect life. I am empty, I am alone. I have suffered enough? Do you have no mercy?' Then he was handed a piece of paper. It has said:
Marriage Certificate of Ryo Noventa and Sylvia Noventa. August 12, 201 A.C.
The Chief Commander found this odd. Why should he be given this information. Then he looked at his Chief Communications Officer Sylvia Noventa, she fluttered his eyes at him and he cringed. This had to be the oddest of all female oddities he has observed so far. Why would she marry one of her own family, even if it was a distant one at that? And if that wasn't enough, why have the Senate of both Earth's allowed this marriage? Is it an arranged marriage between two Noventa families of the two universes.
"Don't take it that way." Admiral Rick Hunter said. The Chief Commander then turned his attention towards his superior, or equal. He would have to look over the chain of command. "She didn't marry her own family. Her husband took her name." And odd change to Chief Commander, but then again this was the twenty-first century in the home Earth's calendar so he would have to think that it was alright. "Congratulations Chief Commander Ryo Noventa, you're married."
"...." The Chief Commander was speechless, outside. Inside, he was yelling. 'WHAAAAAT!!!!'
"The Senate of both Earths have approved of this marriage. Saying that this would symbolize a bond of the Alliance between the Earth Sphere Unified Nation and the Third Earth Government. And Sylvia Noventa wanted to marry you so well since she loved you so deeply." The Chief Commander then looked at Sylvia Noventa with silent horror. She giggled and kissed him on his cheek.
"I love you so much Ryo." The group found the scene cute and lovely. Outside, he was ineffective from this turn of events. Only slightly making unnoticeable twitching on his face. Inside, Chief Commander Ryo Noventa was screaming bloody murder.
'NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'

A uthor's notes: Okay now, I've just made this a character bashing. I couldn't help it, I had to get it out of my head. It was pounding against my skull, begging to get out and I had to get it out. Please don't flame me for this. I tried my best. I'm sorry if I've upset anyone who liked Chief Commander Ryo Noventa (Though I doubt that there are anyone.) I promise that I'll be nicer to him in the Epilogue. (Though I'll get replies, saying that he should suffer.)
