Duo quickly returned. " Duo! What ever happened to telling Heero?" Asked Ayane. Duo gave a sheepish grin. " Well, that's the problem. They found Heero. They've got him held in cell 6." Duo replied. Kasumi handed Sapphire her sniper. " You found it!" Sapphire gleefully said. Trowa turned to his injured friend. " You can still shoot, right?" he questioned. Sapphire nodded her head. Going down a corridor, they found two guards outside one cell. " How long are those soldiers, going to be entertained?" Kasumi asked. Trowa shrugged his shoulders. " Long enough, for us to bust Heero out!" Whispered Ayane, as she steadied her rifle. With one perfectly aimed shot, the first officer fell dead. The second turned round. He went to call for back up, when he too fell dead. " Your shooting's still sharper then Ayane!" Kasumi stated. Sapphire giggled & watched Trowa's back. " Heero, come on! We're busting out of here." Whispered Trowa. Soon Heero emerged from the cell & all 5 ran to the circus, lorry. All of them squeezed behind some boxes when Sapphire suddenly remember something. " My Gundam! I left it behind some bushes, in a wood." She alleged. Kasumi smiled. " Don't worry! Quatre & Wufei are by it. They're taking it back to earth, as we speak." She answered.

Suddenly the lorry gave a funny jolt & Catherine moved the boxes. " Your okay. We're cleared away from them." She stated happily. Sapphire stood & stretched. Some blood from her shoulder, fell to the floor. " Hey, where's that come from?" Questioned Kasumi, flicking some hair from her eyes. Sapphire looked at her top & cursed under her breath. " Damm! I got shot in the shoulder." She replied. Duo, who couldn't bear the thought of sapphire getting hurt, looked up. " Say that again." He said. Sapphire sighed. " I.. got.shot.in.the.shoulder! Get me now?" she asked slowly. Duo nodded his head, but still looked hurt. Ayane handed her half-sister some plasters & kasumi dressed sapphire's wound. " I don't know who, it happened. I think, Ouch!, they shot me after I was knocked out." Sapphire explained.

Back at the apartment, Sapphire was listening to her CD player. She was humming the flawless tune of a Daft Punk song. Ayane was sitting on the floor, eating a tub of ice cream. Trowa stood against the wall, looking out the window. Sapphire's Gundam was safely at the Gundam compound. Duo sat on the sofa, opposite Heero, who was typing away. Sapphire typed, stopped, stuffed a biscuit in her mouth & carried on. Kasumi had washed her hair & sat next to Ayane, brushing it. Duo got tried of sapphire humming & threw a cushion at her. It landed on her head & Sapphire looked up. Duo grinned wickedly & stuck his tongue out. Sapphire stopped her CD player & threw the cushion back at Duo, who dodged it. " Got to be quicker then that love!" Duo taunted. Sapphire grinned, pushed her stuffed to one side & replied, " I already know!" Before Duo could move, Sapphire pounced on him. They landed with a crash & Heero shook his head. Trowa moved to the door. " I better be off. See you guys around!" he said & left.

That night, at the OZ base, Lady une was talking with the captain of OZ, Trezies. " So lady une, she escaped!" Trezies stated. Lady une nervously fixed her glasses on her nose. She always got nervous when around Trezies, but she did have a soft spot. Lady une nodded her head. " Yes, commander. Somehow, while the circus was here. I'm sorry Commander." She replied. Trezies got up. Lady une stepped back. Trezies walked up to her slowly, & held her hand. " I trust you will find her. I trust you lady une!" he whispered. Lady une blushed. Trezies wiped a hand over her cheek & smiled. " I must go now Lady une. Please find sapphire!" he said & went out the door. Lady une stood still, before moving anywhere.

Next morning Sapphire was up early. The discomfort in her shoulder was too much for her. " When I found out who shout me, I'll kill them!" she thought. She stood in the kitchen, looking out the window when she heard a familiar voice. " Your going to burst one day, I can see it!" came the bouncing voice of Kasumi. Then the snorting of Ayane. " She must have been a pig, in a former life." Sapphire thought. She soon heard the unmistakable laugh of Duo. " Me, burst? I don't think so some how!" he replied & joined Sapphire in the kitchen.
