"Sally, look out!" Wufei shouted as he pushed her behind a brick wall just as a spray of bullets fired over.
"How the hell did these guys get guns?" She shouted as she looked over her shoulder. She quickly got out her own pistol and shot at one of the terrorist's leg causing him to crumple in a heap. Wufei flew over their heads in a summer sault and made quick work of them by using Tai-Kwondo.
"I thought that once Queen Relena's peace rule set in that weapons would no longer be needed." He muttered as he cuffed them.
"Just shows that peace is never always there." She said as she walked up to him. Wufei suddenly stiffened with that vague feeling that they were being watched. As he turned he felt something whiz buy his cheek and then he heard the faint grunt he later recognized as Sally's voice.
"What the hell?!" She said and gave a short cry of pain as the bullet grazed her ankle. She went down on hand and knee and held a hand to the wound.
"Sally! Are you okay?" Wufei shouted. She quickly nodded and began to care for the wound. Meanwhile Wufei spun around and darted toward the alley where he saw a flicker of dark hair. Cautiously approaching the alley from behind a wall he peered into the alley and saw that it was clear. Pulling out his gun he walked in sliding along the walls. He never saw the overhead shadow balancing on the metal pole. Nor did he sense that it was going to kick him. The dark figure grabbed the pole with it's hands and flipped over so that it nailed Wufei on the back. As he skidded across the damp ground he tried to get up but all he felt was a hand on his neck and then darkness.
"Wufei?" Sally called out standing, her wound bandaged. She'd have to get it properly treated later. She headed toward the alley and stepped in still calling Wufei's name. She never saw the trapdoor under the junk. Or else she would have seen Wufei being dragged away by a slim figure with brown hair and green eyes.
Things were going very well for Quatra today. Since Relena's new peace laws there was very little fighting to do and anything that did come up was no problem for the Preventers. With no meetings and all the paperwork done he had the rest of the day off.
"Tea or coffee sir?" A light voice asked. He looked up from the papers on his desk and was startled to find a young man with brown hair and green eyes looking at him and holding a tray with cups and saucers on it.
"Tea will be fine thank you." He said politely. He reminds me of someone, I feel like I've seen him before he wondered dazed as he took the cup and sipped it's hot contents. He got up still holding the cup in his hands and looked out the window at Colony XS77FS9. He suddenly felt dizzy looking at the height and before he knew it the cup fell out of his hands the brown liquid spilt over the blue carpet. He collapsed unconscious and the serving boy laughed maniacally.
"This is too easy. The training of being a Gundam Pilot must be fading, Winner never even looked at the surface or he would have found the sleeping oil all over the top." He smirked and grabbed Quatra and tied him up. Then he opened the window and what happened next was something no one would ever have believed. The boy sprouted wings out of his back. Real wings! They were like a crow's, long, narrow and black as night. He jumped out of the window and pumped his wings to gain height before he plummeted to the city below. All the while he thought; 2 down and 3 to go.
Beep! Beep! Beep! The alarm clock went off and Duo groaned. He looked dazedly at the clock and signed.
"Hilde and her weird ideas." He muttered as he got up and dressed in the usual fashion of black with a white cuff. Standing up he was just about to go out the door when his computer screen converted to the face of Sally.
"Duo, is Wufei with you?" She asked her face tight with painful hope.
"No, sorry Sal. What's up?" She signed and almost broke down.
"Wufei's been missing since Monday morning at 10:00 am."
"What?!" He cried out in disbelief. "But if that's true then he's been gone for almost 21 and a ½ hours now!"
"Check with the others and see if they've heard from him okay?"
"I'll get right on it Sal." He said and hung up. He was going to rush to Hilde with the news when the screen turned on again but this time to Heero's face.
"Duo! Get over to Colony XS77FS9 as fast as you can! I just got an urgent call from his sister. Quatra is gone!"
"What?!" Duo shouted "Great! First Wufei and then Quatra. What, did they elope or somethin?!"
"Your guess is as good as mine" he said and clicked off. Later that day the 3 Gundam Pilots; Heero, Duo, and Trowa were going through Quatra's office under the eyes of his sisters.
"You're sure no one else came into the room after 10:30 am?" Trowa asked the sister's for the millionth time.
"Positive" One of them answered. Heero noticed the cup and began a clean look through it. The tea had already stained the sky blue carpet and Heero scraped off some of the flakes and put it on a dish and scanned it with his computer.
"Sleep oil" He announced after 5 minutes.
"What" everyone chimed in.
"There was sleep oil in this cup. My guess is that Quatra drank it and there must have been such a strong dose that he was knocked out completely and almost immediately. Judging by the remains it happened on Today at 10:30 am exact."
"Why didn't you go into criminology Heero? You'd pass easy." Duo said in awe.
"To boring he said simply."
"So what does this mean?" Quatra's sister asked.
"The shot fired at Sally wasn't ordinary either. From what she tells me the shot looked like it was aimed for Wufei but it hit her instead. I think that was intentional so that whoever it was could draw Wufei away into a dark alley alone and Sally wouldn't be able to follow due to her injury but it wasn't so serious that Wufei would stay with her. Whoever did this really planned it out." Trowa said with a dark tone filled with hate.
"But what does this person want?" Duo asked face contorted with anger.
"It means," Heero said "that someone wants to get rid of us. Someone out there is after the Gundam Pilots and they already have two."
End Chap.
**************************************************************************** ************** Starlet: A cliff hanger neh?
Duo: You say so. yawn
Quatra: So what happens exactly?
Starlet: Well. I can't tell yah because it'll ruin the surprise. But here's a hint. Pay close attention to the date and times the Pilots are abducted. It'll play a part in the story.
Wufei: Hey! Hang on. it says in the script something about 'The door of Zeal will open and.'
Starlet: Shhhhh!!!! You'll spoil it!
