Okay, here we go
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Gundam Wing or anything of the sort.
HA! no one can sue me now, NO one will take away my dvd's (evil chuckle, as her dvd's are stroked by a loving hand)

Umm, I went through and I am editing this chapter! The commas on the ahem were bothering me as well as the

"ahem . . . "

Duo worked furiously, trying to get through all the security programs on Oz's computer system. He had 30 minutes to download the files and get out of here. Deathscythe was hidden outside the base and Heero was keeping them occupied. They had to keep radio silence throughout the entire time because Oz had developed and distributed earpieces that picked up all communications. It would cause undue attention on Duo. The braided young man murmured an exclamation of victory as he got through the final locks. He pushed in the cd and began downloading the files. While it was doing that he listened at the door for any approaching footsteps. Hearing none he returned to the computer, silently urging it to finish. The computer must've heard him because it sped through the last 12%. Victorious, Gundam pilot 02 stood up and cautiously made his way towards the exit, when to his dismay he heard "The enemy has infiltrated our base, all available personal, FIND HIM!"

Duo moved faster, but unfortunately not fast enough. He heard a gun cock and he turned, gun at ready. A chorus of clicks signaled the presence of other soldiers, Duo shrugged weakly, saying, "Lost?" Seeing no mercy (and why should he?), Duo began shooting, not a single shot wasted. By pure luck, one of the soldiers who had begun shooting after the first shot, hit his hand, throwing the gun out of it. Duo swore as blood quickly ran down his hand and dripped on the floor. He turned to run, but another shot ripped through his thigh, causing him to stumble.

"Stop! He will be more useful to us as a hostage, hopefully his partner in Wing Zero will not destroy this base as he has so many others." The idea was reasonable, but Duo sneered. Noticing his look the commanding officer asked, "What? You think he will kill you along with the rest of us?" Duo grinned and in return was smacked across the face, "ANSWER ME!"

"My partner trusts me to do whatever is necessary to get out of here alive. He doesn't have time to worry about me. The only perfect partnership is one built on trust, when you don't have to worry if your partner is succeeding or not." Duo's grin returned, wider this time. Whether or not he made it out of here, all the soldiers were going to die. Then Duo reproached himself slightly, these men could be innocents undeserving of punishment, yet they had joined Oz and they had to die. The building shook violently and Duo, on his injured leg, fell over with an "oomph" The officer realized that his 'hostage' was right. Thinking quickly he grabbed Duo's hat and jacket, grinning.

"Well, if he trusts you, we'll just have to prove him wrong." Turning to his men, "Boys, lock him up somewhere quick and tie him up. We have to go pay a visit to our trusting little Gundam pilot." It was said with confidence, but his eyes glittered with fear and a cold sweat gave him shivers. Duo grunted as they pulled him up and dragged him roughly down the hallway. They stopped in front of a door, not high security, but with him tied down and shot he wouldn't be getting out of there soon. As soon as they left he began to struggle with his bonds.

~Elsewhere~
Heero looked at his watch during a momentary lull, in the battle. This battle was pointless, the number of reserves here were not sufficient to keep him singularly occupied. Duo should be out of there soon, he thought offhandedly. Looking up from his watch he continued his fight, 'only seven more minutes' ...
