A fic about Dorothy and what she really thinks.
I looked at the girl who was Queen of Sank Kingdom, a real princess no less. She was surrounded by a coterie of admirers, who nodded and praised everything she said. Relena-sama, I thought, you may be royalty but you do not act like it. True royalty knows how to lead. Your brother should be the one on the throne not you. That is why Treize-sama and the way he sees things will win in the end.
"I believe wholeheartedly in absolute pacifism," Relena said to her friends.
I narrowed my eyes and smiled in amusement at her amazing self-confidence that bordered on madness. Yes, you believed that when you tried to shoot Une. I overheard her talking about it. I could scarcely believe the girl who tried to shoot her and the girl who preaches peace are one and the same person. Sadly, that is the only time I had any respect for you. You are like a child who clings stubbornly to the idea that the world revolves around her, creating a castle made out of sand then crying when the waves inevitably come to destroy it. How will you react when your kingdom eventually falls? How can you blame others when you don't even fight to save it?
"It is the only way that humans can survive," you said.
Humans are not meant to be peaceful. In our recorded history, I doubt that there was ever a year that global peace held sway. Yet, humans have survived, even thrived because of war. It is only fighting each other and ourselves that we improve. If absolute pacifism were to exist, we would be little better than sheep. Kindness and softness have no place in this harsh world, a world you and many of your followers clearly fail to perceive. If ideals could work, we would already be in paradise. If humans could be perfect, we would already be gods. If people truly want peace, then they must fight for it. It will not come to us gently like manna from heaven.
Your father died, too. I do not understand how you can not want to fight back in some way, to make sense out of it. I will not believe that my own father died in vain. He died trying to create something better. It is by being prepared to lay down your life to do whatever is necessary that things happen. Are you truly willing to do so, Relena-sama? I wonder. Or will you call upon someone to save you? God, perhaps, or Heero Yuy?
In my heart, I know that there are very few people who will die for their cause without hesitation. I admire such people. I can see that Heero Yuy is one of those people. From what I know about him, he has nearly died several times already. Yet, he still keeps fighting with all his might. Perhaps that is why Relena-sama finds him so fascinating.
He reminds me a little of Treize-sama, I thought. The difference,however, is that Treize-sama knows how to move the people around him. His men, his soldiers know that he is worthy of being followed. He is a man who will change the world.
I saw the Queen of the World walking down the hall to talk to me, presumably to change my mind. That is perfectly fine with me, I like to be amused. I put on my best smile and said, "Relena-sama, isn't this a wonderful day?"
The End
