She grabbed some clothes that definitely were big on her , braided the long crimson mess up so it could be hidden under the hat and kept the bill on her hat low , the last thing she needed was someone taking note of her age .... especially driving a car and buying groceries , of course if it came right down to it she could always try to use a cover story like hunting down a witch ..... thank god she watched 'Blair Witch Project' , it had given her some awfully good ideas.
She went to the biggest grocery store and stocked up on a few things , burgers , french fries , a few frozen pizzas and other convenience foods , not all the time would they be able to sit down together and eat , plus if they got stuck out in the bush like Amy was it was likely best to be able to take something with you incase you got the munchies , course after the groceries she hit a few craft shops and picked up things like wire , liquid sodder , but she knew she had to watch the funds , with what she had left she went to a restaurant and ordered supper for the group , after just getting there she really didn't want to be the one to cook as well.
She sat there as quietly as possible , waiting never really was one of her favorite parts but it was better the sitting at base , and this place did seem busy enough to keep her attention moving from one place to another as she tried to seem harmless , it was the voice that caught her attention , she had been checking out what a waitress was carrying to see if the food was going to be fit enough to eat when a voice behind her ordered a drink , she looked towards the out window as if checking on her own order and out of the corner of her eye she caught just a glimpse of those familiar eyes , she looked back around , he wouldn't likely recognize her with the hair and the clothes but to play stupid was way more then she wanted right now , he looked like he needed a good long sleep followed up by a quiet breakfast but that would have to wait till after this job at least , they had been ordered and as much as she hated the whole thing plus they were in a town just a rocks throw away from an enemy base , when the bag was brought to her she quickly threw the money to the kid behind the counter and was bent on getting out of there quick , having had a small piece of mind that he was okay , looked like Death himself but alive to say the least.
She opened the door and noticed some customers on their way in so she held it open for them to pass before she left , looking up alittle and noticing a face that she had etched into the back of her mind so many times it took her foot blocking the door open to remind her she couldn't slam the thing shut. There in the flesh was Osama himself , she smiled and looked back at the counter , sure not likely they'd recognize her but was Duo as well disguised , she didn't have a chance to warn him and knew if she had it would only end in a bad situation so she would have to think quick to get him out of there before one recognized the other.
She took the bags to the car and looked around for just a moment , she couldn't hold off on getting the news back but still had to get him the hell out of there without revealing anything ..... now this was going to be hard. She crossed the street to a lady who was on the corner selling flowers and bought a packet of them , then went back to the car and caught a kid along the way , offering a dollar if the young one would take them in to the gent at the counter and give them to him , the child was glad to earn the money and turned immediately to do so , as the child climbed the stairs Trel started the car and was off , if she knew Duo he was bound to come out in curiosity , and what could he really find out about her , blood red hair , surely the over large clothes would hide her size , her hair having been up under the hat was no give away , maybe the car but would he chase a ghost , she doubted it , the description was way off from what he would remember of her so this would have to be her only way at getting him out of the line of fire before it really hit the fan.
She met Amy on the way in , the groceries forgotten for the moment but atleast she had remembered to bring in supper but as soon as they walked in almost the exact same thing came out of their mouths , course when Trel had said it she really did mean more then just the pilot , she had seen worse.
" I'm telling you I saw Heero!" shouted Amy as she threw her arms up in the air.
" Same here except I saw Duo and Bin Laden." Trel followed up , course she was not going into much detail but she had kept to the letter of the order so there really was nothing else to report. She placed the bags on the table and was about to go back to the car , grabbing what was left out there , Jason was eating his food as he listened to the conversation stuffing his face with French Fries and burgers Savanna walked in with a bag of groceries when Matthew walked up from the basement wiping his hands.
" So I guess we are not alone. We have to be extra careful then." Said Matthew as he sat on a chair near the table and stole a fry.
" I guess the old lady has to make an appearance." Said Savanna calmly as she excused herself upstairs , Trel went out to make sure everything was in before coming in and finding a seat to eat , not that she was feeling hungry after getting a scare like she had , course this was going to make it more difficult , now while scaring hell out of everyone they had to make sure the other pilots didn't use them for target practice , so much for keeping this low profile prankster style , of course if she did get a shot at Osama she sure wasn't gonna hold back this time , he was the reason for most of this strife ..... well he was the biggest part of it , what could Hussein do without his partner , it was Osama that had an understanding of this world .... hopefully that was still true though.
When Savanna came down she almost fell off the chair , the look was just to die for , the old granny skin and hair and this strong uncracking voice as the trademark oakleys were set off to the side saying " I'll be back in a few hours."
It was almost enough to lighten her mood but not as much as she had hoped , after abandoning her supper to the fridge she went out and climbed a near by tree , usually a good place to keep from being seen when one wanted privacy , she thought back to the lay out of the town and cursed her self trying to figure out where they could be hiding , Amy had seen Heero near the base and she never really had checked for Duo's bike while in town but was sure a Harley would likely have drawn to much attention to him so he must have walked , the most likely place would be somewhere in the middle. Which hopefully would keep this place from being found out , that was if they didn't come to investigate to much , but how would they keep the others away from the base and from messing up their operation , the best idea was to let them in on it all or maybe contact the doctors to get a copy of the other's orders so atleast one group had a heads up ..... or as a last resort to break the silence and have the other group informed about their plan , hopefully keeping the identities covered but what the plan is so no one ended up on the wrong side of the pistol.
