I'ma back! The first part of this chapter should explain a lot about the previous one. I've put the speakers' names above their parts, so there won't be any confusion. Anyway, enjoy!

Kira:

Two weeks. It has been two weeks, and the idiots are still fighting, despite the loss of their leader. He is on our side now, and, having finally finished his repair work, is out on a mission, leading a group of robots. The idiot still won't give us his suit so that we can analyze it. Still, he has contacted his little friends several times, and we have fought them back bit by bit. They seem to still think that he's on their side, until they face him in battle. It's absolutely delightful to watch, hearing the shock in their voices as they see that he fights with the robots instead of against them.

Gingka:

I'm sorry, everyone. I haven't had a chance to escape and regain my freedom. The DNA still thinks that i'm on their side, which has kept the truth from being revealed… For now. I still don't know where Kyoya is, although i've spoken with him several times. In the meantime, i've had the opportunity to examine the DNA robots, who i've been leading into battle lately. I have to admit that it's a bit amusing watching my friends freak out when i start fighting against them.

I swear, the expression on Zero's face under his mask would have been hilarious to see. The poor guy retreated after a while though, unable to face me head-on. I don't blame him. I gave him quite the shock, nearly tackling him out of the air in a feint that hopefully looked like an attack, although it was really a save. I barely managed to flip him over so that his jetpacks would remain undamaged. His reaction was to get up, stare at me for a few seconds, then retreat rapidly the moment i pointed my grappling hook at him.

Zero:

I don't believe it. Gingka seems to be fighting with the DNA, but every Warrior that has encountered him so far has returned practically unharmed. The DNA claims that he is under the influence of the Evil Gene, like Arashi was a year ago, before Japan was liberated. The whole situation is rather confusing. He attacked me head-on, yet i walked downstairs upon arriving at the base and found him chatting casually with Yuki over the communicators! My brain is about to explode. Is he on our side, or is he not?!

Gingka:

The DNA is an organization of idiots. Do they really not see through my feints and false fronts? I mean, come on, they're pretty obvious. I faked a misfire of my flamethrower and took out half of the robots that were with me, i haven't removed my mask since they captured me, i regularly wander the halls in between assignments, i've tackled other Warriors out of the sky to avoid them getting hurt by the robots, the list is endless! I express interest in how the robots work, and they're so overconfident in their Evil Gene that they show me the entire production process!

These little mistakes, small things by themselves, will pile up quickly. Thanks to the DNA's stupidity, i now know the exact flight distance the robots can go on a full tank, the locations of several of their bases around the world, the location of the tracking device, and several other things about the DNA and its forces. Boy, will they be surprised when their supposedly secret bases get attacked by a full Warrior force. And all it took was faking being evil for a bit.

Argo:

I'm rather surprised at how easy it was to capture Hagane. Kira and his group at Metal Bey City did it within hours of the order being sent out, and that mostly by accident. If that's the limit of their leader, then how much easier should it be to take out the entire force?! I've even spoken with Hagane several times since his capture, and he has lost the venomous tone in his voice when he speaks to me. However, to be entirely certain of his complete loyalty, i would like to see his face. He still refuses to take off the mask, insisting that he was unable to fix the systems that retracted it, but i think he's lying.

Gingka:

Man, faking brainwashing is easy. I mean, seriously, if i can fool even Merci, who should be able to detect even the slightest waver in my voice that would give me away, then this will be a cakewalk! My suit is constantly transmitting my location, and i've given an alert to the control room every time i reach a new DNA base. Yuki currently has around twenty mapped out, scattered in all of the larger countries: China, Japan, the U.S.A, Brazil, Russia, Italy, Canada, and many more. The only real challenge i have is finding Kyoya, who has absolutely no clue where he is. I only know that he is in the Metal Bey City base. If i knew where the cell i was originally in was, perhaps i could find him.

Kyoya:

I don't care if he's learning all of the DNA's secrets. Hagane is being too slow. I swear, my arms have fallen asleep at least ten times since i woke up, and maybe more. According to Tamashii, i've been in here for a full month. Barely being able to move during that time period had begun to take its toll on my body. My hands are constantly numb, no matter how much i move them to keep them awake. My shoulders and feet are sore from constantly having to support my weight. I've almost run out of insults to throw at the guards.

Gingka:

Kyoya should've thought quicker. If he had, we'd be out of here. He could've woken up and played evil, and bam! We'd be gone. But he didn't. Instead, he just had to wake up yelling and ranting on about his situation. Oh well. No matter. Once i find him, it's bye-bye, DNA. Communication times are becoming more and more limited, as i escort DNA bladers and robots to various points around the world. I can't talk to Yuki and pay enough attention to the DNA agents at the same time to avoid suspicion.

Ryuga:

Hagane's an idiot. I don't care how many times the others say that his facade was smart, he shouldn't have gotten himself captured in the first place. Unconsciousness is no excuse. I was knocked out, and i didn't get captured. I'm convinced he's avoiding me. I haven't seen him since that large battle against the DNA robots. Yeah, the one where we almost kicked their metal butts, and would have, if we hadn't been knocked out by that stupid explosion.

Gingka:

One by one, they're returning. The world is being united, communications systems being left in every major city possible, every small town we visit. I've even managed to do some actual Warrior work while pretending to scout for the DNA. I've high-fived Masamune, pranked King, and caused both Zeo and Toby to animefall, all with a full battalion of DNA robots less than a hundred feet away. By the time said battalion reached us, i was innocently investigating a tree that was on fire, thanks to Masamune's 'quick and epically awesome retreat technique.' Yeah, more like slow and epically failed. He was occupied wriggling his way through a nearby bush, while i kept the robots occupied. Guess i should've paid more attention to his flight skills. Oh well.

"Stormfight. We've been waiting."

"What is it, Master Argo?"

"We know what you've been up to lately."

Silver lids flashed in the dim light, momentarily darkening the room as they covered glowing blue lenses.

"What i've been up to? What are you referring to, exactly?"

"Don't play games with me! You know exactly what i'm talking about!"

"I'm afraid i do not. Please explain."

"Your helmet. Time and time again, we've ordered you to take it off, and you have refused, saying that it is currently incapable of retracting."

"Because it is."

"No, it's not. I saw it retract on a robot's camera just the other day, while you were out in the field. You were talking to one of the other Warriors. You've been pretending to be on our side just to get information, haven't you?!"

Stormflight crossed his arms stubbornly. "You idiots are the ones that fell for it." he said calmly.

"So i was right…" Argo growled. "Kira!"

"Yes?" Kira asked, looking rather embarrassed at his mistake.

"Did you or did you not inject the Evil Gene into his veins?"

"We did sir, and i am sure we used the correct dosage. I have absolutely no clue how he managed to resist it." Kira replied.

"Easy." Stormflight smirked. "Have you already, after only one year, forgotten about the fact that we have a cure to the Evil Gene that works after only one dose, no matter how many doses of the Evil Gene you give us!"

Argo growled. "Lock him up!" he ordered.

Stormflight whirled to make a quick exit, but found his way blocked by two strong DNA bladers, who soon had his hands tied securely behind his back, forcing him to his knees in defeat.

"Even if you weren't under our control, you're staying here, where you can't contact your friends. All communications are being monitored, and only ones sent with authorization by a DNA official will be allowed through." Argo said.

"Not that you can stop me." Stormflight growled, struggling against the grasp of the DNA bladers, who roughly jerked him into a standing position and led him away.

"We already have." Argo smirked.

"Stormflight to Headquarters. I've got a problem."

"What is it, Gingka?" Madoka asked nervously.

Gingka fell silent. "I didn't know you were on duty…" he muttered.

"Oh, and that's a problem?"

"No, no! That's not what i meant at all! The DNA figured out that i was acting, and now they're locking me up… So that's where Kyoya is!"

"Shut up, Hagane. You weren't supposed to bring guards."

"Well, sorry, but i can't exactly help that, if you haven't noticed."

"Guys, now's not the time to argue! We've got to get you two out of there!" Madoka exclaimed, cutting the two rivals off.

"Right. Got any bright ideas, Hagane?"

"Do i look like i've got a way to get us out of here right now?" Stormflight asked as the DNA bladers tied his hands to the wall above his head.

"Well, i can't exactly see you."

"Don't ask me for bright ideas, my hands are tied… Literally."

"Very funny, Hagane."

"Oh, shut up."

"Both of you shut up so i can think!" Madoka snapped.

Silence came from the other line.

"Thank you." Madoka muttered. "Now, i've just got to find out who's closest to you that i can send to get you out of there…"

"Don't send anyone! They'll just get captured too, and then we'll have an even bigger problem on our hands!" Gingka exclaimed.

"Alright then, Mr. Smarty Pants, how am i supposed to get you out of there?"

"You're not. I'll figure it out myself and tell you if i come up with-Gahh!" Gingka suddenly cried out in pain, interrupting his own sentence.

"Gingka! What's going on?!" Madoka panicked.

"That… Hurt…" Gingka muttered before crying out again, this time along with Kyoya.

"Tama...shii… End… connection…" Gingka moaned.

"Gingka, no!" Madoka yelled as the connection was cut.

"Yuki!"

"Whoa! Calm down, Madoka!" Yuki exclaimed as the panicked brunette rushed into his lab.

"We have to get Gingka and Kyoya out of the DNA's hands now! I was talking to them, and they started crying out in pain before cutting off the connection!" Madoka exclaimed once she had caught her breath.

Yuki's eyes widened in surprise. "But we don't have anyone we can send! Everyone's occupied!"

Madoka gasped in surprise as tears sprung to her eyes.

"I'm sorry, Madoka. We'll figure out something. Just hang on." Yuki said.

"They could be dying..." Madoka sobbed, siting down and burying her face in her hands.

"Shh, it's going to be okay. We'll get them out, we just have to rearrange the Warriors' locations so that we're still operating at maximum capacity." Yuki said. "Why don't you go rest while i do that?"

"Okay…" Madoka muttered, wiping a few tears from her eyes and leaving the room.

"Cosmicbark to Warriors. I need everyone to respond, now."

"This is Firearrow. What is it, Cosmicbark?"

"Stormflight got discovered, and Stormheart says that he was crying out in pain at the end of calling her."

Several gasps of surprise flooded the communication lines.

"Then we've got to get him and Wildwind out of there, and fast!" Chris said.

"Yeah, but we still have to make sure that our primary mission is being accomplished." Ryuga grunted.

"I know. That's what we have to figure out." Yuki sighed.

"Guys, i've got an idea." Madoka's voice came through the speakers.

"Spill it then." Yuki said.

Madoka took a deep breath. "Send me and Hikaru to get them out."

"What?! You don't have the training or capabilities, no offense! You and Hikaru are the last people that Gingka and Kyoya would want us to send! They had you guys stay at the base because they wanted you to stay out of danger!" Zero exclaimed.

"I know, but you guys are all busy, and Yuki could give us enough of a crash course so that we could get in there and get them out!" Madoka replied.

"Madoka, think about this. Are you sure?" Aguma said calmly.

"Yes. I wouldn't want any of the kids to go, of course, but me and Hikaru could slip in and out easily, i'm sure." Madoka replied.

"And we both talked it over already." Hikaru's voice came over the line.

"Your flying is still a bit shaky, and i'd have to take off the majority of your autopiloting controls to give you the flight capabilities that something like this would require." Yuki warned.

"I still want to do it. You can train us to control the suits." Madoka said.

"And the kids can easily run the control room while we're gone, especially with Ren and Ryo keeping an eye on them." Hikaru said.

"I have to admit, it's the best plan we've got." Aguma said.

"But it risks their lives, something Gingka was trying to avoid as much as possible." Kenta pointed out.

"We know the risks, but you guys are busy, and we can do it." Hikaru said confidently.

"We'll see. I'll train you guys, but if i don't think you can do it, then i can't allow you to go at all." Yuki said.

"Alright." Madoka sighed.

"In the meantime, i'll come up with a new configuration to counter a potential need to send Warriors to rescue Gingka and Kyoya." Aguma said.

"Keep with the main mission. Don't worry about us." Gingka's voice came through the speakers, sounding exhausted.

"Gingka! Are you alright?!" Madoka exclaimed.

"For the moment. They've figured out that they can't get through our suits to kill us right away." Gingka sighed. "They left us alone for a while, hopefully long enough for us to come up with some way to counter their…"

"Torture?" Madoka finished, barely daring to say the word.

"Yeah…" Gingka sighed. "Yuki, how much can our suits output?"

"How much what?" Yuki asked.

"Electricity." Gingka replied.

"Well, enough to overload the circuits of a DNA Type 1 robot in an instant, obviously."

"Right…" Gingka sighed. "That should be enough."

"Enough for what?" Yuki asked warily.

"No time to explain, they're back." Gingka growled, cutting off his connection.

Cliffhanger! XD Yup. I'ma crazy. You'll have to wait for next week's update, which will be a bit late, as i'm going to be gone Saturday and half of Sunday. (My time, of course, which is U.S. time.) Anyway, see you all next weekend!
