Sheina woke up, and Heero was nowhere to be found. "10:23. He's probably eating breakfast right now." She got up, put some clothes on, and went to the lobby. Sure enough, Heero was there, dripping some syrup on his waffles.

"Hi."

"Hello. Got anything new about our mission, Heero?"

"Only that the last bunker is large, and we may get lost trying to get through. I think I can disable the sentry guns around the perimeter, but the anti-aircraft guns are controlled in the base, so we'll have to scale it." He suddenly got a new email, and checked it.

"Trust can breathe in life, or take it away."

It was as simple as that. It wasn't signed, and it was on the computer, he couldn't tell by handwriting.

"What's the matter, Heero-kun?"

Heero's eyes widened in anger. "Don't call me that. And it was just-" he scrolled down to the next message. "Um, an ad for penis enlargement pills."

"Well, I don't think you need them." She bit her lip again, a smirk on her face.

With that comment, all Heero could do to stop himself from putting a piece of lead in her brain was walk out and start driving to the last bunker, leaving her behind.

Sheina got to the car two hours later, breathless and tired. "What's wrong?" She managed to smirk. "You can't take a joke?"

Heero leveled his gun at her. "If you ever 'joke' like that again, I'll make sure you die, and I'll go home and forget about this whole thing."

"Oh, come on, they say partners should get to know each other."

"Not in the biblical sense." He walked through the door he had already broken down.

*****

Another bomb rained down on the two. "We're pinned down."

"Really, genius? Ow!" A bullet grazed her left shoulder.

"Forget this!" He threw a grenade, much to Sheina's horror. It exploded, and no one was left standing.

"Heero! We're not trying to kill them! We're supposed to be heroes, not enemies!"

"Is your shoulder bleeding?"

"What? Y-you do care about me?"

"No. If you're hurt, you won't be able to hold the gun as well and I'll have to do most of the work." He walked through the door and once again dropped everyone inside. "Get in here; you said you could do it faster than me."

Grunting her response, Sheina walked in, pushed a tech off her chair, and began typing. After a couple of minutes, she spoke up. "There. It's done."

"Good. Now let's get out of here." They ran out, throwing another grenade to cover their escape.

"I guess we'll head back to the hotel. Set the alarm for 7:00, and start climbing early."

They walked into the hotel, and the manager was talking to a few men. Heero saw a little metal in the back pocket of one of them. "Sheina…."

"Heero? What is wrong?"

"Run!" The other men saw them, pulled out their guns, and began firing. Heero grabbed Sheina's arm and began running. He turned a corner and she shook him off to return fire, while anxiously waited for the elevator. Her shots stopped, and all of a sudden Heero felt a bullet go into his right leg. His eyes widened. The guards are still at the desk, so that means-

"Get up Heero." Sheina pulled him up and the guards took him into custody.

"You bitch."

"We all have to make a living, right Heero? Take him up."

"Yes ma'am." The guards ushered him into a small shuttle and held him at gunpoint, while Sheina walked up to the counter. "Here is money for setting this up for me, and this is for keeping quiet about it. Tell anyone, and you'll end up like him." The manager swallowed, nodded, and took the money into a back room.

"Heero. Hey Heero!" Wake up!" Heero slowly opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was Duo. Like a cat, he backed into a corner. "What's going on?"

"Well, they captured you, drugged you and put you in a cell, like the rest of us." Trowa spoke up. Duo, Quatre, and Wufei nodded.

A door opened, and Sheina walked in. "So, how was your nap? I hope you'll enjoy yourself here, because I fully intend to make sure you do not get out. If you do, I'll kill you. If you don't, well, you will live to see me start Operation Meteor; then I'll kill you. Oh, and, don't bother trying to escape, I took all of your weapons. Wherever they were hidden." She winked at Heero.

Even though separated by bars, Heero lunged for her neck. She stepped back and calmly slapped him.

"Just for fun," she continued, "I decided to put in an experimental poison in your bodies. You see, you now have a tiny capsule floating through your bloodstream. There's a sensor on it, so when you try and leave the building, it will open up. The poison inside will kill you on contact. Enjoy your stay here, boys." She walked out.

Heero sighed. "Just out of curiosity, how did you guys get here?"

Duo turned away, while the other three glared at him. "That baka walked up to every lady on our ship and commented how he was a Gundam pilot and how he saved the world. Numerous times. One of them happened to be a lieutenant under Sheina's command."

"Hey! Most ladies were impressed!"

"I think you went overboard when you said the government made you rich since you saved them." Quatre said softly.

"That doesn't matter. We need to find a way out of this cell so we can stop her." Heero said.

"We have no weapons. She took everything when we came here. Everyone was checked, so I'm sure they took all of your guns. Plus you heard what she said about that poison." Duo complained.

"It opens when we leave the building. So, we've got to find an antidote inside. But first we need to get out of this cell."
