************

Around seven pm, Coffee Cafe was flooded with people. Tons screamed their order up to the waiter as they could not reach them from their place. Beyond the crowds at a small table sat a short ash-blonde haired girl. She had her green eyes closed, and was taking a sip off coffee.

Then placing her coffee down she muttered "This is insane." Her eyes searched around the room, then landed of another women. She seemed at least two years younger, but only about an inch or two shorter in size.

"Mistress fire? Where's your team, I never would of expected to see you in a beat up cafe like this." The women sat down across from her.

Mistress fire brushed her own ash hair out of her eyes then glanced up.

The women, must have been around 15 had light brown hair in two buns, and hazel eyes.

"And you know me how...?" Jillian Croft a.k.a Mistress fire questioned.

"I've heard about you by rumors, your the big traitor to CORE. Just call me Kat."

"That's nice and all Kat, but first off I go solo, and second I don't hang out with kids from backdraft." Kat jumped up to her feet angrily, and was just about to yell something.

Then it dawned on them both there were to many watching eyes. Kat slowly sat down, and kept her cool.

"Forget it I have nothing to do with the backdraft and you. I just wanted to know if I could join your team."

"The fire storm team? Well its a new team and all and I'm only excepting ones with great ability and skills."

"....and...." Kat urged her to go on.

"Why don't you show me what'cha can do in that zoid of yours. You do want to prove your a great pilot." Kat grinned, and ran out to her Zabat.

Jill (For those of you her names Jillian, I may write Jill for short, and everyone for one reason or another calls her Mistress fire)watched her fade into the distance, then finished what was left of her coffee and headed to her own zoid nicknamed Core off of the old organization she used to work for.

***************Meanwhile at the zoids battle field

Danger Danger, the area in a thirty mile radius is designated zoid battle field...." The judge made his usual speech. "The Lighting team vs The Chaos

team.....Ready....FIGHT!" The judge waved his hands, and the Lighting team ran into basic line stragety.

Kelly inside her Lighting Saixs wiped the sweat off her forehead, it sure was hot as the sun was beating down in this long desert landscape. On top of that sitting in a metal zoid didn't seem to help her any.

Pressing her Lighting Saixs to its max following her twin sister Chris, and their team mate Jack Sisco.

Dodging weak fire, she examined the area for the enemy, they easily took down two command wolves although there was one still out there.

It was a flat landscape so it was far beyond simple to see around you. Suddenly Chris slowed.

"What is it?" Kelly quickly asked, but only answered that herself at her radar, the enemy was standing right in front of them, not firing or planning to move.

"What do you think he's planning?" Kelly asked her sister.

Chris just shrugged, "What ever it is, it won't be in time we'll take him out there."

Kelly nodded, as the three Saixs rushed toward the enemy zoid.

Suddenly the zoid glowed a light green, and before the Lighting team could react they rammed a power shield, and were knocked off their feet only to be met by enemy fire.

All three Saixs laid on the ground, out of commission.

"The battle is over! The battle is over! The winner is The Chaos team!" The judge raised the red hand, then the pod closed, and blasted off into space.

Kelly Chris and Jack trudged out of their zoids. Chris angrily kicking the side of her Saixs.

"That was such a perfect plain. If it wasn't for that Blitz team, people wouldn't have figured it out..." Chris went babbling on, as the enemy zoid came over. The cockpit swung open, and out hopped a boy. He had a buzz cut with brown hair, and stood around 6'1".

"There is no such thing as a perfect plan." He said grinning.

Chris just glared at him, as he came over to Kelly. "Hey, the names Peter, but everyone just calls me Chaos. You must be one of the beautiful Tasker sisters.

Kelly blushed slightly, then shook it off as Chaos came over to her totaled zoid. Then examining it he said. "Its not messed up to bad, I sure did a number on it, although it still can be fixed."

"You seem to know your zoids." Chris came over.

They both glanced at Jack who seemed to be doing some exaiming of his own of Chaos's zoid.

Then came over.

"Thats a Trinity Liger BA , I'm impressed."

"No kidding, zoids like mine are extremely hard to come by." Chaos added.

"They stopped making them a long time back, the zoids wouldn't listen to their pilots commands right. Then why were you able to pilot yours so easily?" Questioned Chris.

Chaos shrugged. "Yeah, I guess mines not like the rest of the series made."

There was a strange silence, until Chaos once again glanced at the Saixs.

"Hey if you guys need some help repairing those, I'll be more then glad to help."

"Why would you help us?" Jack asked rather surprised.

Chaos just shrugged, then glanced at Kelly and smirked. "No reason in general."

**********

The Zabat dodged the enemy fire with ease then swirled down and shot a missile at the Core zoid. Jill easily blocked it with a shield and shot random fire. Not as much to hit the Zabat, just to test.

Finally half an hour later the Zabat returned to the ground, and Kat jumped out of the cockpit.

Jill came out to meet her.

"How was that for you?" Kat said grinning.

"Sure it was good, but still no match to my Core. Either way you being an amazing pilot I guess I could let you on the team."

"Don't get cocky now."

"Never said I was." Jill said then shrugged.

"Listen I don't have a transporter, not that I'd exactly waste my money on one, but we'd have to run to our next battle....your zoid can keep up can't it?" Jill smirked, Kat just glared at her then nodded her head.

"We are still going to need three members." Kat reminded her.

"I'll take care of that later, in the mean time, lets head to the nearest city, I have to have some caffeine."

"Are you addicted to that stuff or something?"

"You could say that."

Jill and Kat returned to their zoids heading toward the nearest city, NG city.

***************Mean while, at the Blitz team base

Leena quickly stuffed all her cloths into a bag, then flung it on the bag. Grabbed some money, and other items, then put them in her pocket or bag as well. Then once she seemed done, she flung the bag over her shoulder, and headed to the door of the darken room. She stopped and glanced around at her room.

Things were missing knocked over it looked like it was searched, but in reality only by herself. Then when she seemed satisfied, pushed her door up extremely quietly, and headed out toward the hanger that way. She looked up at her far beyond modified gun sniper. Leena stared at it for a short while until she shook her head. "If I take it, they'll just track me down." She said to herself, then very slowly, and seemed hardly turned away, and started running as fast as she could in the opposite direction.

Around twenty minutes away, she found herself walking, as she could no longer keep up the pace. Then headlights blinded her for a second. She wiped her eyes to clear her vision and see her was in the car.

"Harry?" She wondered, as she'd thought Harry jumped out of the car.

"Leena my darling! What brings you out here." Harry did his overly concerned speech.

Leena just grimaced, she had to get away from them, and at the moment she thought that, a somewhat vaguely familiar voice rang out.

"Harry!" It was Mary Champ, her and Harry's to robots followed him in a lighting Saix.

She pushed up toward the two, then glared at Leena, and then at Harry.

"I told you this girl is no good Harry. Running off in the middle of the night to see her!" Leena sighed some more, then just thought of something.

"Hey Mary can I talk to you for a moment." Leena lead her away.

"And what is it...." Mary urged her to talk.

"Listen I was actually here to get away from them, I can leave, and not sneak out to see Harry again if you give me one of your cars." Leena hoped this would work, Mary pondered for a second then nodded her head.

In about ten minutes Leena was off driving toward the only city see knew NG city.

**************At a repair shop in NG city

A teenage girl, entered the well known repair shop in NG, and just lowed her sun glasses to see her zoid. She smiled, then put them back on, brushing her long dirty blond hair back as she did. Her hair draped down her back, and she stood about 5'6 looking as if she were around the age of 16.

A man came up with shaggy gray hair.

"Is my Silver Storm done yet?" She said that as short as possible, the man looked over a clip board then nodded.

"Ah yes, Savanna Walker isn't it. We just finished the repairs, and already added the shield as well. I'll need you to come and sign for all this." The man lead her to the front store, and pulled out the papers.

*******

Leena Toros stepped on the petal once again. The jeep was slowing from lack of gas. Never had she though NG city would be this far. Although luckily, the city was extremely close, so she could walk with no trouble.

Which is what she ended up doing with her bag, and just leaving the jeep there. Upon entering the city, she began to head down the alley to escape the crowds.

"Hey Sweetie." Hissed a voice, which made Leena shake. She turned around to see a few street punks behind her, tossing a can of spray paint, or cap mase or something, although Leena didn't want to stay to find out, and kicked the leader directly in the face, and began running.

*******

Jill pushed her way through the store, occasionally knocking people down because they couldn't move, and continued on before they could finish their lecture. Jill finally found a back door, and slipped away before a riot could start in that far to over crowed store.

When Jill left she found herself in a dark alley.

"Now this should be interesting." She felt for her gun, or dagger by her side, and continued down watching the shadows.

Just as she'd pictured would happen another shadow, and set of footsteps were accompanying her own. When the footsteps grew faster, she raised her gun and shot it in the air, when the stalker or whatnot was still in shock, she escaped down another alley bumping into someone that sent her skidding back. Jill jumped to her feet and by reflex snatched out her butterfly dagger, then lowed it when she saw the person was only a girl. Perhaps a year younger then her, she had magenta hair, and violet like eyes. "Hey, sorry I thought you were one of those-"

The girl, which you probably guessed by now cut her off. "those stalkers, they chased me down here." The girl examined Jill's face, then her eyes landed of the scar Jill had right above her left eye.

"Are you-" This time Jill cut her off.

"Mistress fire, Jillian Croft yeah that'd be me."

"I'm Leena Toros, nice to meet you, I used to belong to the Blitz-" The two girls moved back, as a dagger nearly missed them. They were surrounded.

"Now these people aren't to friendly." Jill said to Leena if she was listening of not. The men closed in, until Leena grabbed a trash can and knocked down three, and punched one onto the ground then ran that way, Jill quick to follow.

"Listen I'll take care of them." Jill withdrew her gun once again and shot off a few bullets making them shatter.

Then before they could do anything about it, Jill and Leena were gone.

*********

"Done." Savanna said in a soft voice, and handed the contracts back to him filled out.

"Then its done, you just have to swing by whenever and pick up your zoid." The man said, then went to file the paper work. Savanna watched him for a second, then left the store, heading down the street, until she saw three girls come out of a Cafe. They all looked somewhat similar in age, the oldest had to be the short ash haired as they headed down the sidewalk. Although it wasn't the girls that caught her eye, it was the dark figure following after them.

Savanna headed in pursuit determined to warn the girls.

*********

"And you are who again?" Questioned Kat for the third time obviously not getting the answer she wanted.

Jill sighed and shook her head.

"Leena Toros, Steve Toros's daughter. I used to belong to the Blitz team the team that won the -"

"WE KNOW!" Kat was sick of hearing this again.

"Its not that we say who you are its just that we have trouble believing how you got here." Jill stated.

"Right well I just left."

Silence.

"If you really were you who say you are why would you have left."

Silence.

Leena shook her head sadly. "Lets just say we didn't get along to great. I seemed to piss everyone off."

"Chill, its not over until its over, they just probably got upset for some reason. If you join our team then we can go back sometime later and show them what we are made of." Jill, and Kat seemed to say in unison, just different ways.

Leena smiled. "Just one problem, I'm zoidless, I left my gun sniper with them."

"Sure Lee, just leave it to me, I can get a great zoid cheap, even less then that if you don't ask where it came from." Kat snickered at what Jill just said.

"Lee?" Leena gave her a strange look.

"You didn't actually expect me to say your entire name did you. Lee suits you fine."

"Alright Jillian."

"Jill." Jill corrected her.

"Alright Jill, lets go. Besides I think that figure in black has been watching you for far to long."

Jill glanced out of the corner of her eye, then cursed under her breath, then followed the other two out.

***********

It was late evening, and Kelly Tasker shifted in her seat in the room. With boredom taking over her mind, she hopped to her feet and headed toward the cargo storage place. Arriving there, she was surprised to see a light still on.

At first she thought it was her sister or Jack, but then she remembered.

"Chaos? What are you still doing here?" Chaos who had been fixing up the Saixs a little bit, not to mention his own zoid tore away from his work, and went down to meet her.

"Don't worry, if I was a bandit I'd be long gone. Actually I was just fixing up the Saixs a little bit."

"If you-" Kelly began but he gave her the strangest of looks.

"Why would I mess up your zoids when I already won?"

Kelly shrugged. "What other reasons would you help us like this."

Chaos glanced out at the night, and shrugged.

"I'll explain, want to take a walk."

Kelly stood there for a moment, then followed him out.
