A/N Sorry for taking so long but school has started and I needed to get into my normal routine. I have no time to write at home so mostly will be at school on my 5th period lunch and on the weekend so updates will be far between. Anyway this chapter is mainly getting more of who Red Robin is, enjoy. O and I do not own Hogans Heroes

Chapter three: Questions

Kinch had thought right, morning brought a tired Colonel, who was no closer to figuring out what Red Robin would need help with then the night before.

Yawning, Hogan stood in formation pretending to listen to one of Klink's speeches on how Stalag 13 was the only Stalags with no escapes "No one ever escapes from Stalag 13, not now, not ever... am I boring you, Colonel Hogan?" Klink asked, an annoyed scowl on his face.

"Oh no Kommandont." Hogan replied blinking his eyes trying to wake himself up a bit.

"Uh hu, please at least try to pay attention. Shultz dismiss your men." And with that Komandont Klink turned and marched towards his office.

Shultz dismissed the men and went to start on his rounds, while the prisoners hurried back inside their drafty barracks.

Newkirk approached Hogan with a young man trailing behind him. "Sir this 'ere is Sergeant Richard Adams. 'e's the one who says Red Robin helped in 'is escape."

Hogan took a moment to study the young man standing at attention in front of him. He was tall and thin with brown hair and blue eyes that barely held a look of curiosity in them on his youthful face. He noticed that the man had started to fidget slightly under his gaze. He smiled at the young man. "At ease sergeant, we're not that formal here. Now I've heard that you might be able to answer a few questions I have concerning the upcoming mission."

Adams nodded "Yes sir, I'll try my best."

Hogan smiled again "Good, that's all I ask. Let's go into my office." The two men turned around and headed into Hogans quarters with the rest of the core team following close behind.

Hogan motioned towards to bottom bunk, turning around his desk chair as Sergeant Adams sat down. The rest of the group scattered around the small room Carter sat on the bunk next to Adams while Kinch leaned against Hogans desk and LeBeau and Newkirk both went over to the window.

"Now what can you tell me about Red Robin? Is he American, German..." Hogan started off looking intently at Adams.

"Well sir, from what I remember I'm pretty sure he is an American. He wore what looked like an Army uniform."

"Ok so he's American, can you tell me what he looked like?"

Adams eyes squinted slightly, "I couldn't see his face, it was covered completely. Now that I think of it, it was as if he wasn't even there."

"What do you mean wasn't there?" Carter exclaimed, voicing what everyone was thinking, "how is someone there but not there?"

"Well he never said a word and kept in the shadows of the cave. Someone else, his partner maybe, did most of the talking, gave me everything I would need and showed me the direction to the coast" Adams shrugged.

"A cave? Was it his home base?" Kinch spoke up moving to stand next to Hogan, looking down at the other sergeant.

Adams shrugged again "I guess, I didn't see anything else. They were pretty big on hiding its location."

"Hmmm, so he does not want anyone to know who or where he is." Hogan thought aloud "Can you tell me about his partner?"

"Yes sir, I believe his name is Cardinal, he's quick on his feet, almost as quick as his tongue. Was a none stop chatter box about everything and anything but, only answered questions about their operation if Red Robin gave him the ok, if it wasn't about them or their operation he seemed very willing to talk. Red also seemed quite relaxed about his command. Looks very young, can't be much older than 25 at least, also sounds Canadian by his accent."

"Ok, what was this cave like?"

"It seemed like a pretty big, deep cave, I couldn't see the entrance, but you could hear water, and I'm pretty sure that the cave went farther back by the look of it."

There was a pause as Hogan digested this information, "Sir..." Another pause, Hogan turned toward Adams. He cleared his throat and continued, "i..if you are meeting with him, c..could you tell him thank you for me?" He looked up to Hogan, "You know, for trying to help me."

Hogan nodded and smiled "Ok, thank you, If I do see him I'll be sure to tell him, you are free to go if there are any more questions I'll come to you." Dismissing him.

Adams stood and smiled as well. "Thank you sir, I hope I was of some help."

He left, closing the door behind him. Once the door was closed, Hogan turned to his core team.

"What do you think, Guv'nor?" Newkirk spoke up.

"I don't know. Adams was very informative but there are still quite a few loose ends. Red Robin does not speak and lets no one see him, that sounds a bit off to me, like he has something big to hide." Hogan stood up and began to pace, "Now Cardinal seems a bit young for the kind of business they are in." Hogan stopped "I guess we'll see what I think of them when we go on that mission with them, until then-" He turned to Lebeau, "-I'm famished what's for breakfast?"

Lebeau grinned and stood up "I Shall go and see what I can scrounge up mon Colonel." He went and opened the door, walking towards the stove in the middle of the common room, everyone else following behind. Hogan went last, watching as Kinch went down below to make sure all is well, Olsen jumping off his bunk to get in position to keep watch from the crack of the open door, Newkirk and Carter bantered back and forth as they sat down at the table, beginning a game of gin. The air in the barracks buzzed with excitement at meeting such a mysterious agent as Red Robin.

Hogan leaned against the door frame 'Only two more night until we all finally figure out this Red Robin' and he went and joined his men in waiting for LeBeaus breakfast.

A/N I got real sick of re writing this and it was a bit rushed at the end, I could not think of any more question to ask so if there are any you think I should add please tell. O and I do not own Hogans Heroes :)
