Strong People Cold eyes glared at the young woman beside the bed, delicate hands wrapped around the long slender fingers of her brother. Sally had assured him that the antidote had been obtained and that Zechs had been treated. Now it was just a matter of time. "Why do you look at me like that?" Her voice was a whisper as though she feared to disturb her brother’s rest. "I am trying to see in you what everyone else sees. This famous White Dove that drives all evil from them so they may enjoy their precious peace. You can not believe that to simply destroy weapons of mass destruction will eradicate war. Such are the dreams of fools and you do not strike me as being a fool." "White Dove of Peace? I’ve heard that so many times it makes me want to scream. I’ve heard so much tripe … I’m no more responsible for the peace than I’m responsible for the weather." Dark eyes narrowed. "You think not?" "If they want a White Dove they are looking at the wrong Peacecraft." // She is involved with Winner. I am sure of it.// "How would you convince the masses that the man who threatened to destroy a civilization is the embodiment of Peace?" "Prince Milliardo Peacecraft. That is who he is. Who he was born to be. Zechs Merquise was a transition on the road to crafting a King who understands what it is to come from a peaceful world and what it is to lose everything and rebuild from ashes." "You think this is the man your brother is?" Relena studied the Preventer for a long while, considering the man he had become and the young man, barely more than a boy she had known during the war. Wu Fei had grown into a fine man. "I’m sorry, Fei. He is that and more. How many people have a heart big enough to give up everything that they had, as he already did? I’ve learned a great deal, Chang Wu Fei, since I became this so called White Dove. I’ve seen documents that would make you weep and others that would have you hunting with that sword of yours in search of justice. I’m tired of dealing with it alone. I’m incapable of dealing with some of it because I just don’t understand it. He would. He has been there. He has seen it. He’s been to hell and come back. A fallen angel who needs to find his wings and learn to fly again. We can only deny who we are for so long … and Fei … he’s a Peacecraft." "What about his dreams? What about the life he would wish for himself?" "Not all of us are graced with the opportunity to live the life we ideally desire. Some of us must be content with very little of that dream … Someone we can love. Who will love us honestly in return. Strong people need strong people to protect them, Fei."
