The ended up in a small diner outside of downtown in Z300.
Trowa looked around happily. Heero joined in his happiness to find that Duo was too preoccupied with Hilde to bug him.
Duo was smiling at Hilde, "This sure is a nice colony, Quatre."
Quatre smiled, "Thanks."
Hilde agreed, "Yes, very lovely."
Duo and Hilde went back to their small chatting, almost ignoring the others.
Heero turned to Wufei, "So, what was that you were saying about a hacker?"
Wufei nodded, "He broke into the HQ and was trying to get a file off the computer, but he proved to suck at his job. I interrogated him, and found that he was hired by some higher organization."
Quatre joined in the conversation, "Maybe this is a new terrorist or something that doesn't really have a name yet."
Heero shook his head, "Whatever it is; it might prove to be a problem. I'll look into it."
Trowa joined in, "I'm sure that there is something out there about him. Maybe I can pick up on a rumor or something while I'm out traveling."
Quatre nodded, "Right, and I can see if there has been any major mining for Neo-titanium or Gundanium recently."
Wufei added, "If they wanted to get into the Preventers' HQ, they must be up to some kind of activity to gain an arsenal. That'll be their only way to retaliate against the Preventers. It should be pretty obvious to find someone getting supplies for a mobile suit or any kind of weapon at all!"
"Uh, guys," Duo broke in. The other four were surprised by him joining in. "Yeah, I got an order for a lot of mobile suit parts."
Wufei jumped at his words, "And WHEN were you planning on telling us, Maxwell!"
Duo turned around violently, "Hey! Calm down, Wu-man! I had no clue about this hacker thing!"
Heero stood, "Well, who is it?"
Duo smiled, "It's no threat. It's just Howard..."
Heero sat back down, "Howard?"
Duo nodded, "Yeah! Ya know him!"
Quatre insisted, "I know he's your friend and all, and that Dr. S said he could be trusted, but we should check up on him anyway."
Duo shot out, "What?!"
Heero nodded, "Your right, Quatre, let's go and see him, when Duo delivers the parts."
Trowa looked down, sadly, "I guess I can get away from the circus for a little while."
Quatre laughed, "An I could definitely get away from office!"
Duo looked at Hilde, "Can you run the shop without me?"
Hilde gave him a little shove, "Are you kidding?! I'm going with you! You forgot, I'm a soldier too!"
Duo placed his hand on her shoulder, "No, I don't want you to get involved, like you did last time."
"But, Duo..."
"Hilde, please, don't get involved," Duo sincerely smiled.
"Fine," Hilde reluctantly crossed her arms.
"Yes!" Wufei celebrated, "I'm finally going on a real mission!"
Duo realized who he was with again, and turned to his normal self again, "Hey, Heero, you must be the lucky one of the group."
Wufei was curious, "Why do you say that?"
Duo continued, "Well, everyone, except Heero, has a job..."
Heero felt offended, "What exactly are you saying?"
Duo waved his hands up, "Don't get offensive! I'm just saying that's a good thing!"
Quatre felt the need to stop them, "Okay, so the plan is that Duo gets the parts, and the rest of us go with him to deliver them to Howard."
"Right," Wufei agreed.
Quatre added, "We'll meet back here in twenty-four hours.
