Chapter 6 - Ready, Set, Jailbreak!
















Everything seemed to be in a haze as Duo woke up, he was not in DeathScythe, and neither X or Zero was there, He was alone. Standing in a cold barren jail cell, except this was no ordinary jail. This jail was like the one's from X's world. There were no iron bars, they were energy bars, made of high density energy being projected from the top of the cell to the bottom. There were no windows either, which made the place even more dreary compared to the jails Duo had seen. The only light that Duo could see was a line of dim lights on the ceiling, the Earth style fluorescent bulb. Every now and then the bulb would flicker because of electrical problems, Duo layed back on the small bed in the cell as his mind began to wander, where was he, where were X and Zero, and what happened to Wu-Fei and the others. He let out a light yawn as he felt a little tired and drained, it had been about twenty minutes since he woke up. But why hadn't he seen a guard in the hallway when he first woke up. He felt a little weird about the situation as he heard some quick light footfalls accompanied by a few groans and a loud thump and a light jingling of keys. He sat up quickly as Wu-Fei rushed infront of his cell and unlocked it, then opened the cell motioning to Duo to follow.



Duo - "Wu-Fei! Where' Quatre and Tro.."

Wu-Fei - "Shhhhh! Keep it down, You'll draw more attention to us, They were picked up by Quatre's men after that colloseum began to rise to ground level, we're somewhere in the mountains of Japan. Hurry, we need to get back to our gundams and find X and Zero."

Duo - "Right, Let's go!"


Duo then leapt off of the bed as he followed Wu-Fei down the long corridors. It seemed Wu-Fei had knocked all the guards on the way unconscious. As they ran down a long corridor Wu-Fei stated that their gundams were at the end of the hallway as they ran out the end of the corridor and saw Altron and DeathScythe. Their eyes widened as their were several guards standing there, five to be exact, the rest were still attempting to gather towards the gundams, Wu-Fei ran straight towards the guards, he leapt into the air and extended both legs, smashing both guards dead on in the foreheads as they collapsed to the ground, passed out cold. He then rushed at the remaining three, grabbed one by the throat and threw him to the ground, knocking him out with the impact as he rushed towards the other two, running at full speed he slammed his left leg into the one guard's stomach which knocked him out as he leapt over him and flew at the last guard, he extended both his legs as he smashed them right in the guards face and backflipped off his forehead and landed.



Wu-Fei - "Hurry! Get in DeathScythe! I'll get in Altron!"

Duo - "Right!"


Duo nodded once as he acknowledged Wu-Fei's orders again and ran over to DeathScythe, seeing that there was a ladder to the cockpit as he climbed it and hopped into the cockpit of DeathScythe again. Wu-Fei's gundam was kneeling so he simply climbed the leg and hopped into the cockpit of Altron as he and Duo activated their gundams simultaneously, Altron rose to it's full height and DeathScythe looks over to Altron. They turned as DeathScythe brought out his scythe, slamming it into the bay doors as they burst open. Altron and DeathScythe then blasted into the air, to the left of them was the arena where they had been held captive and fought Bass. To the right was another arena, where X and Zero were battling a gundam that looked similar to SandRock, except it was black and red. They flew over to X and Zero as they entered combat.



X and Zero had been transported not to jail but instead to this battlefield where they fought first a Dark HeavyArms and defeated it and now were taking on a Dark SandRock. Altron swooped down as SandRock repelled X and Zero, He raised his arm as his dragon shot out and blazed through SandRock's middle as it blew up. DeathScythe then came down behind Altron and landed.



Duo - "Hey Guys."

X - "Duo! Your Ok!"

Duo - "Thanks to Wu-Fei."

Wu-Fei - "Yeah, Save your gratitude, We have buisness to attend to."

Zero - "Like destroying this base."

X - "Yeah! Let's do it, Guys!"


As they prepared to leave a large sheet began to rise from the ground, another gundam but it was concealed in the cloak as the voice from before the underground spoke again. It sounded malicious and evil, purely filled with rage and hate towards the one's he spoke to.



????? - "Your demise is at hand. I will finish you myself."
