Dark One's Kingdom
Part 1: The Rescue
By: Princess Raye Fire
He ran along the corridor, dodging bullets and downing guards. He had been given a mission and was going to accomplish it. He had to get in, plant charges, save a captured secret agent, and use the agent's plan of escape. He was in and he had set the charges for 10 minutes. Now he had to find cell number 693.
671, 699, 697, 695…awe, there.
He shot one guard and made the other open the door.

She sat in a white room with a woman. The woman was one of the Light Queens; she wore a dress of the finest white silk and had silver hair with 2 buns that had pigtails coming from them. She had kind but sad blue eyes.
She -the first woman- was but a girl. She had a white bodysuit on with a short purple skirt and sailor collar. She was holding a stave, it had a large ebony-colored handle made of the finest metal alloy anywhere and a 'G' shaped blade sharp enough to slice a hair if one fell on it and large enough to reach it's master's thigh on its own.
She noticed the Queen was carrying a pink wand. The top was a golden Crescent Moon and the purest silver crystal in the Kingdom.
'The Crescent Moon Wand,' she thought, 'what do you want to bet she doesn't come to meet the other Scouts with that.' --A light flashed and the girl got the impression of cold, solitude, and…stone sleep. -- --Another light flashed and a younger, kinder Queen was speaking with a younger, unarmored version on the dark girl. The girl nodded, she excepted a mission from her Queen. She and the other 2 Scouts, who she couldn't remember, were to go to Another Place.
There was more in her memory. Five men, training, numbers, codes, and missions. Being ordered, on one mission, to be captured. She understood the need for an inside person and someone to hamper the enemy's perception of them. But the beatings were more than she had expected.
Her well-trained ears caught the slip and whir of the cell door opening, but she didn't react to the man at the door.
"Well, come on." He said impatiently. It was not what she expected, her sounded young. Normally bloodying her was left as an honor to the accomplished military veterans. He had black hair pulled into a dark ponytail in back and black eyes. When she stood, he was about 4 inches taller than she and couldn't be over 19.
"Hurry, Woman. We do not have all day…" She didn't quicken her pace, not even a step. "Do you want out of here or do you want extended reservations?"
She quickened, when she reached him they walked down the corridor in silence. They were beside a closet when the shots rang out. They did the only sensible thing an out numbered duo could do. They hid the closet.

Wufei stood in the doorway. "Do you want out of here or do you want extended reservations?"
He stared at the agent he had come to rescue. He was nasty. With ragged clothes, bloody, dirty, matted, long hair, and long, untrimmed, broken nails.
They exited and made their way down the halls. They had almost reached the hangar when barricaded soldiers opened fire on them.
The duo jumped into a near by closet.
"This is nuts!" The agent cried in a scratchy voice. "We do not have time for this!" The agent grabbed Wufei's sword and jumped back into the hallway. He caught a bullet on the blade and the metal dented. "What kind of crap is this?"
"They told me to tell you the budget really sucked this year."
"No shit! That's it we go get my toys." She screamed as she ran down the hall and struck the men down.
The agent then continued down the hall and took a left where she should have taken a right. The agent stopped at a vault labeled. 'Top Secret: Clearance Alpha 6' Translation: PlayRoom.
She swiped the card she had taken off the dead guard back at the Cell and typed in a number she had memorized ten years ago. The door clicked and whirred as it opened. She disappeared and reappeared with 4 duffel bags in her arms and wearing another on her back backpack style. She went in again after dropping the four on the floor and came back again with 2 more and a big stick with a 'G' shaped blade on the end.
She threw him a wallet filled with what looked like credit cards. "You drive."
She led him to a secret hanger. Inside was a Gundam. It had white arms and legs with black and purple armor, shoes, and helmet. He used the drawstring and climbed in the cockpit while she climbed into a hidden compartment.
One thing was for sure. This Gundam made Nataku look short and HeavyArms look thin.
Needless to say they got out, the base went boom, and they made it back to the apartment the Gundam Pilots and Zechs were sharing on L-1.
Author's Brief: Hey, remember, You can decide Gundam names, Gundam looks, which Scouts were faithful to Hotaru, and the pairings! Come on, you know you want to.
