Part Twelve: A New Player

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN JET AND JACK ARE DEAD?" Macentire glared at the messenger.

"Just that sir, their bodies were found yesterday by their camp site, And another thing Heila is a traitor, she was seen yesterday helping the 5 to a near by hotel..."

Macentire not to enthralled by the messengers message stormed the room, the man was large a burly, on every finger a gold ring sat and he had expensive tastes. Two small beaded eyes watched, and a large beaky nose protruded from his face, He wasn't much taller than 5 foot and his black hair was pulled back into a thin ponytail at the base of his neck.

"That's it, I will from here on out personally see that they are killed, remove all bounty's from their head it's now between Me and them. And I Will win..." Macentire growled. The messenger boy gulped and ran to do as he was told.


It had been a little over two days and the five hadn't been bothered, all of them were a little more than jumpy and grumpy.

"Do you think we'll ever be able to return to our old lives?" Quatre asked.

"Who knows...." Trowa sighed as he re-read the same book for the 5th time.

"Whoa!" Duo pointed to Heero's laptop screen and was grinning like an idiot.

"GUESS WHAT GUYS!"

"What Duo?" Heero asked from the couch as he sat up to look at Duo.

"I hacked into a computer system and from what I can tell by this e-mail, WE'RE NO LONG WANTED!!" Duo cheered.

"WHAT?!" Trowa, Quatre, Heero, and Wufei all echoed.

"I'm serious!!" Duo Pointed to the line, the 4 rushed over and looked. Astonished at first they then bust out into cheers, hugging and dancing around.

Heila woke up and glared. "What's all the racket about?"

"Were no longer wanted!! We're free!!" Quatre relayed the news.

Heila's face feel. "Did you say the bounty has been removed??"

They all nodded.

"Not good..."

"What do you mean not good?" Duo asked.

"Basically, MACTENTIRE IS NOW GOING TO KILL YOU ON HIS OWN!!" She screamed.

"Who?" Wufei rubbed his ears.

"Macentire Clements. A very BAD and very SNEAKY bad stabber... He's not ONLY out to kill you, but ME...." He slapped her forehead. "Gods.... Our day just got better...."
"Okay.... So this is bad?" Duo asked.

"Yes..."

"Nooooooo." Duo stood up and hobbled over to a wall and banged his head.

"Soooo... I say we get up and move," Heila streached.

"why?" Heero asked.

"This place isn't any good, it's out in the middle of no where AND not to mention he probably KNOWS we're here...."

"So what do you suggest?" Trowa asked.

"The city..."

Everyone looked at her as though she we're nuts.

"The city??" Heero asked.

"Yes, that way there are MORE than enough people there and maybe we can buy enough time and THEN find a BETTER plan."

Wufei and Trowa sighed, Duo continued to bang his head nad Quatre and Heero just stared.

"Well don't just stand there!!" Heila barked. They all jumped and began packing. In about an hour all their stuff was packed in the van and they were on their way to the big city. (Sounds kind corney don't it??)

"So explain to us why the Clements is SO dangerous?" Heero asked Heila.

"He knows people LOTS of people who know people, it's a very large ring of informers and recivers.... Basicly, as long as we're alive there are eyes everywere.... And to tell ya the truth, they're probably following us as we speak..." Heila asnwered. That made everyone un easy.

"So what city are we going to?" Heero asked.

"Los Anglos..." She replied as the gold gate bridge came into view. They all blinked.

"I feel like I'm in a dream..." Duo grumbled. As they entered the area a plane flew over head.


'Sir, they've now entered, Los Anglos...'

Fin.
