"They responded pretty quick," Trowa said, glancing over Heero's shoulder. "They must have been watching for it."
Heero nodded. "They're definitely after Quatre for some reason. This message says that they had hoped Relena's disappearance would move things along quicker."
"Well…I guess they got what they wanted, then," Quatre said softly. "What do they expect me to do now?"
"They gave me the coordinates to meet with them," Heero said.
"Hang on," Duo interrupted. "Are we using Quatre as bait?"
"In a way," Heero admitted. "They are expecting Quatre at this location tomorrow. From there we should be able to find out where they're keeping Relena and Wufei by following them back to their base."
"What if they realize they're being followed?" Quatre asked. "I don't want them hurting Relena or Trina. We can't give them an excuse."
Heero nodded. "I agree. That's why the message I sent said that you took so long to get back to them because you were recruiting a Gundam Pilot to their cause. They seem pretty happy about it."
"Okay," Quatre said slowly. "So who's going with me, then?"
"I'll be going in with you," Heero said. "Duo will track our location and help with the extraction. Trowa will assist Duo unless he is needed to infiltrate further."
"So who are we supposed to be going after first?" Duo asked. "Ideally, you guys'd get Relena and the kid while Trowa gets Wufei and Sally, but who's the priority if we're forced to choose?"
"With Wufei back, it would give us more allies to launch a second rescue," Trowa pointed out.
"That's true," Quatre said. "But they're more likely to hurt Trina because they know we'd do anything to keep Relena and her little girl safe. Wufei can fend for himself if he needs to."
"I think Quatre's right," Duo said. "What do you think, Heero?"
Heero nodded. "Trowa's point is valid. It would be ideal to have Chang available to help us. However, if we need to, the child gets priority, followed by Relena and Sally."
Trowa nodded and went back to his computer to see what he could find out about Quatre's body double, a man named Paul Silver.
"Quatre, you need to finish eating," Heero said. "We all need to be well rested and ready to go tomorrow."
Quatre nodded and went back to his pizza. He had to force it down, but he had it gone by the time Trowa found what they were looking for.
"You'll never guess who Paul Silver is related to," Trowa said.
"Who?" Duo asked.
"He's cousin to Dorothy Catalonia. And get this, she's been reported as missing."
