Authors notes: OK this idea came out of nowhere when I was reading something that my friend Gaberiel Yaslana wrote (She's really good writer and she has a website. If you want to visit it, it's at www.angelfire.com/anime2/shunchan003/index.html, so stop by and visit it sometime!) and it was really weird because when it hit me it took me less then a second to have the entire story all writen in my head. So here is the first part. I hope you enjoy reading this um....interesting fic.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The plan was set. They were going to find an OZ plant. They knew there had to be one because in their present memory they could remember that OZ was a peaceful faction. But of course that was all bull. Anyway, The next day they set out. They had decided the night before that they would go as far north as they could out of the city. none of the guys really knew why they had chosen that direction but they were going to trust their instincts. After going through the town and picking up some things (namely hand guns from the pawn store and some other interesting things they had found in the back of the store) they went north. Sure enough there was an Oz base. It was across a very barren expanse, but they could see it. Walking across unseen would be tricky. The guys knew that since oz was somehow involved with this, that the base would still have officers. Unlike the town which stood silent and abandoned. They decided the best way to get to the base would probably be to just try and stay low. There were little bushes they could hide behind but they were few and far between and there was no doubt that Oz had a survallence system that watched everything, perhaps even the city itself. They made it to the base without anything happening, but they were met with something none of them expected. There were no windows, there were no doors, Hell the place looked like a prison. Somehow, probably from flashes of the Other memories Heero had figured out how to make a plastic explosive . True, this would completely kill any chance of sneaking through the base unnoticed, but it was the only way to get in.
"Now, remind me again how you figured out how to make this." Duo asked as he watched Heero set the home-made explosives.
A shrug was all he got in anwsering. Sighing, Duo got up and walked over to where the others were, standing a safe distance away incase the bomb went off unexpectidly. Duo wasn't particularly worried about this. He, for a reason he could not comprehend, trusted Heero and his abilities, even if they were questionable. Trowa was currently loading a rifle that they had found in the back of the pawn shop. Duo watched silently as Trowa handled the weapon expertly. Duo didn't even bother asking how Trowa knew how to operate the weapon, because as it was all of Duo's questions would be answered soon. Quatre was talking to Wu Fei, as the chinese boy tried to fit as many weapons into his outfit as it would allow. The blond was extremely surprised when Wu Fei was able to get all of the explosives, guns, knives, and even rifles, into the trench coat he had picked up in town. Quatre was very uneasy about all these weapons. He knew very well that they would probably have to kill some people, and would every now and then questions their motives. He believed that perhaps they could just go back to living and forget about OZ, but everytime he thought of the empty town they had left behind these thoughts were banished. He doubted that place would ever be normal again. But then again, he thought to himself, considering how all the people just dissappeared, the likeliness of that place even really exsisting was close to nothng. Duo had long since hidden all his weapons, including one very wicked scythe. At first duo had seen it and thought it was just a metal pole and left it alone. But something brought him back to it. Finally, Duo decided to pick it up. Almost by accident his hand slipped over a switch causing the 'pole' to buzz and then come alive in his hands. a very long, very dangerous thermal blade slid out from the pole and cut through a few shelves. Duo dropped the weapon in surprise but was able to catch it before it sliced off his foot. Holding the scythe cafefully he examined it and swung it around a few times. It just felt so.....right. A smile came to his face, he had just found his perfect weapon. Bringing himself back t the present he realized they were all ready to break in. This was gonna be interesting. It had not been in their plan to just blow up part of the building to get in, but seeing as there was no other way, they didn't exactly have any say in the matter. Heero finished placing the bombs and then joined the rest of the guys, detonator in hand. He backed them up a good distance before he motioned for them to get down. This was it. They were about to enter this windowless, doorless, facility and find the answers to the questions that had been plaguing them since the morning of March 22nd, two days ago. Everyone held their breath as Heero hit the switch. There was utter silence.......
