I don't own gundam wing, blah, blah...

*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* Relena wore a blindfold and couldn't see her surroundings. Her hands were securely tied behind a bar. She realized the extent of her problems when she noticed that she had not been gagged. They didn't bother because no one would be able hear her desperate cries for help. She didn't know the destination but her captors were intent on bringing her there as soon as possible. She could remember being pushed around while half sedated. She was forced to change form her night gown to prisoner garb; which was a plain button up top, long sleeves draw string pants, and simple slip-on shoes.

All the time she was worrying about Heero. 'What has become of him???' She was dying inside. She feared the worse.

She felt around her cell with her feet out of curiosity and found that her surroundings was bare bones minimum. It was a large metal box with a chair in the middle and she could only guess at the source of air. 'Well at least they were kind enough to put air wholes on this bug jar.'

Her tummy growled. She was starting to get hungry. It had been such a long time since dinner. She had no Idea how long but it had seemed like an eternity.

The cell she occupied began to shake and she heard the sound of a powerful engine revving up. Her worse fears were verified. She was being taken into space.

On arrival they pushed her and kicked her trying to direct her were they wanted even when she was blindfolded. She muttered a curse to the man who was responsible for the first five kicks. It was that man who unblindfolded her and threw her into her new cell. But before he had the chance to close the gate she launched herself at him and went into a fighting fit. Knocking the man unconscious. She grabbed the unconscious man's gun and pointed it towards the other guards. Her eyes gave her away. She was scared and she knew they new. Relena spoke to them, "Where is Heero? Tell me!!!!" The men responded with a confused look. They probably didn't know but she had too know. "Tell me!!!" She didn't remember much after that. She was hit from behind again. She had the bruise to remind her not to fall for it again. 'I could have sworn no one was behind me.'

Worse yet she still didn't know about Heero's well being. A horrible feeling festered in the pit of her stomach. For all she knew he could be gone from this world. If it were true, what was there left to hope for...but she knew. Keeping peace alive. He would want that. She would do it for him. Living or dead she would serve him She was eternally his.

Her resolve renewed she inspected her new cell. Their were bars and a two sided electronic lock. The side were the key was inserted was obviously on the other side were she couldn't reach it but the other was on her side and it had metal casing around it. It probably just held the gears and stuff that opened the gate.

She stuck her head out to see if any guards or surveillance camera's had been close by and for some reason none were in sight.

She looked closely at the casing. 'Darn! I don't have anything to work this with. Well..when electronics give no other options..' She cocked back and slammed the casing as hard as she could with the heel of her foot. Bam! It had a dent. 'Just my luck! Cheap colony metal!' She looked down at her foot, which throbbed from the blow. It was to be expected though she had thin Soled shoes. Even with the pain she continued to hit the casing as hard as she could. 'Three times...four times...five..six...I'm getting somewhere!' A large dent dug into the electronics and she would be able to pry the casing off.

Unfortunately the guards weren't as far as she would have hoped and she was drawing a lot of attention. Two guards ran up to her. One tried to jam his rifle through the bars to hit her but she ducked in time. The guard spat at her, "Stop it bitch! Or next time I won't miss!"

The other guard looked at the lock and said, "It's busted good. I don't think it will withstand much more beating."

The mean guard spat again, "Damn Colony metal! Open the cell and take her to Lockup C." He scrutinized her with his eyes for a moment. All she did was glare through her tired eyes. "Post two guards next to her cell at all times until the boss arrives."

'So that's why I'm still alive and they're waiting,' she thought, 'I just hope that their boss is delayed enough for me to find a way out of here. I still have hope.'

Heero arrived at the terminal. The city the terminal was built in had a large connection to the rouge faction. Their business flourished here. All he had to do was get into the base some how without alerting the enemy to his presence.

He was an expert in that field, seeing as he's slipped under many a security systems. He would look for an opening and when an opportunity would present itself he would grasp it. This time though he had a plan.

Heero was surprised with Zechs compliance with his plan. He new Zechs had respect and honor, but all that can fall to the ground when a loved one is in danger.

Heero's thoughts wandered to her, so far away. Clouding his judgment for a moment. He quickly regained his train of thought. He smiled a tragic smile 'She was the only one that could do that to me' After he realized his feelings for her he had been training himself to keep thoughts of her in a small part of his mind so he could keep the analytical part moving at full pave. He always thought of her. Ever since then.

An opportunity presented itself to Heero. It looked like a sorry group of soldiers who had just been transported from a nearby training camp. They All wore the same uniform (all recycled form the previous war with a few alterations). Because of their unfamiliarity with their environment they were confused and vulnerable. 'too easy'

Ther person with the least disheveled uniform in the pack called for attention from the rest of the uniformed. " Pay attention damn it! We're heading to port C. follow me!" The pack followed and talked without abandon. Heero could gather a wealth of information from their babble but he had more pressing matters.

He needed to find the black sheep; the one that no one would miss. There were tow candidates. They didn't seem to be talking to anyone for the past minute and a half. One was slightly taller than the other and both had Heero's same color of hair but he couldn't tell what height was more like his own. He would have to guess. Heero moved to the left side of the group and targeted his victim. Heero waited for the signal.

A huge explosion erupted from one of the helicopters outside the window on the opposite side of the pack from Heero. While the men gasped in surprise watching the display of firepower, Heero stealthily attacked the target and dragged him into an unmarked room were Zechs waited to take the man into custody. Heero just hoped Zechs would be able to get some good information from the poor sap.

Heero changed into the uniform grabbed the guy's bag and added a few gadgets into it. After leaving to room he saw just what he expected. Total confusion. Some of the soldiers went gung ho and ran over investigate the explosion. Some hid behind the others that just stood gaping. The director was completely red in the face from frustration. He regained his composure after ranting a few cuss words at the absent idiots. Then he demanded the rest of the men to continue towards port C with him.

Heero slipped in behind them unnoticed.

Port C came into view. It was packed with 60+ men all headed towards the main base. Heero was relieved. ' No one would notice him in the sea of uniforms. His thoughts wandered to her again. ' I'm coming to find you. Hold on, my angel.'
