fanart of a fanfic? *le-gasp
no really it is. fanart of iconHaroGirl's fanfiction "Gundam Fantasy" http://gundamfantasydj.deviantart.com/gallery/
i have not read a fanfic in years and i gave up on them because i read so many bad ones, but this one i freaken love. there is already existing art of this fanfic and it was this art http://harogirl.deviantart.com/art/.....tasy-127169912 that lead me to this art http://sapphiregamgee.deviantart.co.....Plea-190304830 and that art made me want to read the story and i really got into it.
this story really stands up well on its own, and that one does not need to see gundam wing to understand and enjoy the story, if you changed all the names this story would still stand up perfectly well as an epic fantasy.
now i know that for some fans of GW it will seem freakishly odd to do a fantasy story and make them mages with wings, i will admit that the concept caused me to raise a sceptic eyebrow, but as i read it i found a strong and original story aided by using the preexisting characters because as a GW fan you get much stronger feel for their roles and personalities (not to mention the fact it being characters i know and love allows me to fangirl all over this)
its worth a read.
below is the text from the story that inspired me to draw this
"The battle had been as long as it was fierce. In the end, Heero had trapped the demon, Treize, deep within the rocky earth. The spell could only bind him there beneath the cold ground for all eternity. But such a spell came at a high price. The Mage who had to cast it had used the last of his strength and Magic to bind the demon leaving him with nothing left to heal himself. With the battle over and the Demon Dolls destroyed, the Five Kingdoms were safe once again. That only mattered a small fraction to him, for what was more important in his eyes, was the safety of his Princess.
Princess Relena broke free from her Royal Guards and ran out to where Heero lay alone. His God Protector, Wing Gundam, had long since vanished soon after the battle ended.
Gently she gathered Heero into her loving arms and called to her champion, “Heero…”
“My Princess…” he said weakly looking upon her face, his eyes barely able to focus upon her, “You’re safe.”
“Thanks to you,” she smiled bravely, fighting back the tears that threatened to fall. Relena brushed the hair from Heero’s face trying to be brave for him.
But they both knew the awful truth, the Earth Mage, Heero Yuy was dying. The battle with Treize had taken its toll on the young man. Tearing a sleeve from her dress, Relena wiped away the sweat and blood from Heero’s face if only to bring him comfort in his final hour. In return he reached up with a shaky hand and gently cupped her face. She closed her eyes and leaned her cheek into his hand. The tears she fought so hard to hide streamed down her face.
“Don’t cry Princess…” Heero whispered to her trying to stop the flow of tears. “Everything will be fine…” He closed his eyes and grimaced as his body was wracked in pain. Relena nodded her head in agreement and yet continued to cry. “I’m so tired...” he finally murmured.
She held him tight, resting his head against her bosom, his wings draping forward and around the pair. “Rest then… my love, rest and when you wake...” Relena couldn’t bring herself to say the words but she knew she had too, “…things will look brighter.”
Heero raised his head and brought his lips to Relena’s. The two shared a kiss, knowing it would be their last. After a minute, Relena pulled her lips from his and quietly whispered.
“I love you Heero.”
“…Relena...”
She felt his body go limp against hers and the Princess knew he was gone. Heero’s white wings slowly began to dematerialize around her. A breeze blew in from the North catching the feathers in its currents, scattering them far on the horizon. It was if the very World itself was mourning the loss of its Protector."
