Mission to Zi
Chapter Five
By, E-307
w/ help from Spectral and other fanfiction authors
Note: Spectral and E-307 do not own zoids. Any other people featured in this fic do not own zoids. It's safe to say that none of us own Zoids.
**********************************************************************************
A/N: I was just watching the last episode of Zoids New Century /0 and I noticed something. The UltraSaurus that's the Goal of the Royal Cup is the same UltraSaurus that had the Gravity Cannon! It's the one that fought the Death Stinger! Am I the only one that noticed that?
And now… WHAT PART OF "I WILL NOT ACCEPT NEW CHARACTERS AFTER THE THIRD CHAPTER"!?!? You two people ( DS-Dark Salamander and Sailor Jurai) are too late. Sorry but I set these rules in the beginning so its your fault if you didn't read them…

***Commissioner's Office; ZBC HQ***
Ting, Peter, Kyle, and Katie were sitting in front of the desk. The Commissioner was going over the report Peter had submitted. He didn't look happy.
Commissioner: They weren't part of the BackDraft Group?
Peter: No, they attacked the BackDraft Zoids.
Commissioner: And they were using two GenoSaurers and an Iron Kong.
Kyle: Yes.
The Commissioner sat for a moment and thought. Kyle, Katie, and Peter sat patiently and waited. Ting was getting bored and crossed her arms.
Commissioner: We have some work to do.
Katie: Work?
Commissioner: Yes, we have to find out as much as possible about this before it escalates into something dangerous. First, we'll be needing some insurance incase our plans fail… Mr. Howard, we'll be giving you the Black Storm Gryphon, bring the zoid to the main hanger tonight for full armaments. Ms.North, I need you to contact the leader of the Blitz Team and ask him to bring the team up here.
Katie and Kyle: Yes, sir.
The Commissioner was about to say something else when the door opened. A young girl with dirty blond hair and silver sunglasses walked in. She walked right up to the desk and took off her sunglasses.
Savanna: I have news you might find interesting.
Commissioner: Can it wait until we finish here?
Savanna: No, this might have something to do with this "Doom" person.
Savanna Walker pulled an envelope out of her jacket and threw onto the desk. The Commissioner picked it up and opened it. Inside were a videodisk and several pictures.
**A Few moments later**
Commissioner: Dr. Ivo Strike? We need to find out who he is and why he kidnapped the Pyrotechnics Team. Ms. Walker, Ms. Lee, we've deposited your paychecks into your accounts but we will require your services for another mission. Oh, and Ms. Lee, since your zoid was destroyed we're going to let you take a spare one from our hanger.
Savanna: All right
Ting: Whatever.
Commissioner: Mr. Ward, contact our spy within the BackDraft Group and find out if they know anything about what's going on.
The warriors left the room and the Commissioner turned on his computer. He began typing and e-mail.
*** Doom's Base; Mountains***
Batzy: *Flies through window* DOOM! WE HAVE A PROBLEM!
Doom: *Golfing* What?
Batzy: *lands on ball* The BackDraft Group is sending people after us! What're we gonna do?
Doom: It's only the BackDraft Group. We can beat them. 4!
Batzy:!
Doom hit the ball and Batzy. The ball missed but Batzy was a hole-in-one.
***BackDraft Base; Island Area***
Jessie DSH sat at her computer working on a zoid simulation when an E-mail message popped up. It was from Peter Ward. Jessie was the ZBC's spy in the BackDraft Group. She locked her door before opening the e-mail.
Jessie: *scans e-mail* Hmmm… this "Doom" guy must be the one Draylor was talking about earlier…
Jessie sent a reply containing the information she had found. She also sent the plans the BackDraft had for dealing with this new threat. As soon as the e-mail was sent, Jessie turned the computer off and got up.
Jessie: Well I'd better get to work…
As she walked out the door, Jessie picked up her sunglasses and Black Leather Jacket.
***A Great Hammer (transport zoid); somewhere above the Jungle***
Danny Keasel had just been hired by the ZBC to spy on a Dr. Ivo Strike. She was tracking the doctor's Whale King in her transport. The Whale King was almost impossible to lose… it was bright neon orange after all.
The Whale King landed deep in the Jungle and Danny went to her Shadow Fox. She launched the zoid and proceeded in the direction that the Whale King landed.
***Arcade; ZBC Convention Center***
A young girl with black hair held up in pigtails was sitting inside the Virtual Zoids Challenge machine waiting for her next opponent. She'd been defeating everyone that bothered to challenge her. Of course the fact that she was an actual Zoid Warrior did make things a little unfair.
She had just vanquished another group of foes when two new people signed on to the game.
Freefall: Who am I facing now?
Two screens showing the new challengers popped up in the artificial cockpit. One was a young blond man with green eyes and the other was a scary person that was wrapped in many sand colored cloaks.
Freefall: Who are you two? I'm Freefall Wolf.
Bit: Name's Bit Cloud. Hope you're up for a challenge.
Freefall: Bring it on. Any idea who our creepy friend is?
Cloak: *in a low, creepy voice* You can call me Cloak…
Judge: Battlefield Set-up! Battle mode 1986, Shooting Challenge! Warriors are reminded that this battle mode allows random entries. Ready…FIGHT!
Freefall charged right for Bit in her virtual Command Wolf. She dodged his fire and started shooting back. The Blitz Team warrior jumped to the side and opened fire again. Neither of them was paying any attention to Cloak, who was slowly targeting them from a safe distance.
Freefall tried a jumping attack but Bit's Command Wolf jumped to the side. Just as he was about to fire…
BOOM!
They both went down. Cloak had taken them out with one shot each. Freefall and Bit opened comm channels but Cloak was gone.
Freefall: Where'd he go?
Bit: Don't know… Well I'd better be going. See ya around sometime.
Freefall: Bye.
Freefall stepped out of the machine and watched as a red haired girl dragged Bit off into the crowd. She began making her way towards the exit.
**Outside**
Freefall was walking towards the hanger she had stored her Raynos in when the crowds of people seemed to get smaller. Soon she was the only person on the street. She started to get creeped out and walked faster. Freefall heard something behind her and turned around. Something rushed by her and she turned around again. Cloak had his back to her.
Suddenly the goggles around Freefall's neck fell off. They had been cut off. Cloak turned around and raised his arms out from under the cloaks. He was holding a sword, and it looked sharp.
Cloak: Hmmm…I missed. I must be losing my touch…
Freefall: What's going on? What do you want?
Cloak: Simply, I've been sent to kill you.
Freefall Wolf ran as fast as she could. Cloak was right behind her. Once she got into her Raynos she'd teach this guy to mess with her.
Freefall reached the door to the hanger but it wouldn't open. She tried the keycard but it didn't work. Cloak was getting closer every second.
Freefall: HELP! Someone help me! There's a maniac with a sword after me!
Cloak: No one can help you…
Freefall sank to the ground as Cloak walked up. Cloak raised his sword and Freefall closed her eyes. It was the end for her…
Cloak: Goodbye.
Cloak brought his sword slicing through the air, and…

More Cliffhangerish kinda things, you find out what's going to happen and perhaps I'll get a dictionary…
