ENEMIES

She gasped at the sight before her.
When Kira had told her to take care of the situation, she had never expected his to happen. Her whole body shook with fear as she stared into the face that she knew so well.
But you're dead! Her mind protested.
The man opened his eyes and quickly stood up, pulling out a weapon. She heard the click of a safety catch on the gun, but she couldn't move, her muscles frozen.
He had the same face, the same crystal blue eyes, but there was no love or recognition in them. His long dirty blond hair blew in the wind as he pointed his weapon at her.
The fire crackled as the city behind them burned. A big explosion was heard, as pieces of debris flew everywhere. The sound seemed to snap her out of her trance a bit. As if by instinct, she pulled out her own weapon with her shaky hands, her military training coming in to save her.
Yet her mind refused to function. She was acting on instinct alone. Her hands shook as she held up the weapon and aimed it at the man opposite her, releasing the safety catch.
For a moment, neither moved. She was lost in her own shock and fear, and it seemed that he was somewhat hesitant as well.
Her mind reeled, and she felt dizzy with questions. What was happening, and why? Why did this man resemble him so much? Was it one of her nightmares? She bit her lip hard, hoping it would wake her.
She heard a bang, and felt a sharp pain shooting up from her right shoulder. She looked, and saw crimson staining her captain's uniform. She wavered a bit, yet her body would not let her lower her weapon, but her mind would not let her use it either.
She laughed and cried at the irony of it all, the utter irony. For the man who once vowed to protect her, and did so with his life, was about to be the one to end hers.
"If I were to become your enemy, would you shoot me?"
Her vision blurred as she winced in pain.
Shoot! Her mind screamed desperately, for she knew that if she didn't shoot, he would.
But even knowing that, she couldn't bring herself to pull the trigger.
AN: Sorry if it's kinda depressing. a spur of moment thing... may be a second chapter from his point of view.
