Gundam Wing Fan Fiction ❯ Hokkyokusei: The North Star ❯ What's Happened... ( Prologue )

It's a matter of years after the Endless Waltz and all of the Gundam pilots are settled down happily ever after, if not on Earth then somewhere in the vast and endless universe. The encounter with the leftover Oz force is resolved and everyone's ready for years of peace to come.

Heero is still part of the Preventor force, easily moving his way up the ranks, and happily married to Relena, alias Prime Minister of the Earth-Space Coalition. Relena is currently working on a new campaign for the numerous orphaned children left by the many now resolved wars. The Prime Minister's mansion is bustling and busy as normal.

Duo is still happily married to his one true love, Hilde. They now have two children, Drei Maxwell, better known as Maxi, and his little sister, Mathilde Tiga Maxwell, alias Matte. Matte is becoming more and more like her father, with an avid interest in machinery. And when she's not sneaking into the junkyard to help her father, she's annoying her older and wiser brother. Maxi has developed a passion for pencil sketches and has gone on to draw anything that catches his eye, including cars, the long non-existent mobile suits, and people.

Wu Fei is still heading the L5 colony and is perfectly content with his wife, Sally, and their toddler daughter, Chang Hong Fa (Red Flower) or Hazy. The little girl is getting more and more bold when she's not under her father's strict surveillance and is known for getting lost for days at a time, only to reappear again later. The happy family is expecting a baby boy in a couple months. Everyone is very excited and can't wait.

Quatre has finally admitted to his secret love to Trowa's fiery-haired sister, Catherine Bloom, and they're engaged to be married. Catherine's in the process of resigning her job as an acrobat and dagger thrower in the circus troupe that has been her home for so long. Quatre is encouraging her to pursue her ballet dream. They plan to confirm a definite wedding date as soon as Catherine finds a replacement for her spot in the troupe.

Everyone's finally settled down, with the exception of Trowa. Trowa has still got that cushy career in the circus and is a particularly successful entrepreneur. But now that his sister is going to be married, he's alone. He knows that all the others are happily set with their jobs and matches for life. And that maybe he should meet someone and live a 'normal' life, away from the instability of the circus troupe that had been his home for so many years. He doesn't know if he wants that to happen or if it ever will. He's happy for Catherine, but he simply can't show what he feels to anyone.

This is his story…
