Arizda: Hihi! *munches on a Slim Jim* Lol, I had to draw out a map of The Star Confederation before I could start writing this chapter. : p I just couldn't quite visualize the whole thing into my head. :) But that's okay, at least you'll be able to get a good mental view of the inside from reading. Yeah, if the writer knows, then the reader knows! Well, if the writer is a good writer, at least... hey, yeah, that gives me an idea. On a scale from 1-10, rate my writing in your next review. ^_^ I want to see how good I am for a 13-year-old. I know, I know, I have the occasional bad vocabulary/spelling mistakes/spacing mistakes/format mistakes and such... but, I try. :D *passes out Crunch Bars, Twix Bars, and sodas* It's like a snack bar in here! whoo! w00t!
Disclaimer: Yeah, yeah, I own my own original characters, cos if I owned Zoids, I'd be freakin' rich livin' in a hotel! :) And I'd make a special series all to B/L. Yeah, go figure, I'm a big B/L fan. w00t! Y'know, I think that the entire purpose of this chapter's disclaimer was lost by that last sentence... o_o;; v_v;
O yes, and to answer one of the reviews about Brad's age...:
Angel -- Err, I dunno, he probably IS 17, but my sources say 34, so heh... ^_^; err... yeah. I'll just keep it that way in this ficcy. I really dunno HOW old he is... and when I look at it, 17 seems a little young for someone like him. But then again, 34 seems a little old, but hehe, now I'm just rambling! : D So let's just say he's 34. ON WIT DA FICCY!

As soon as Bit and Izumi had turned the corner, Chemuk's nose instantly went to work, frantically sniffing the ground for Runa's scent.
"Yes! I think Chemuk's got a trace of her, Bit!" Izumi said happily. Her heart almost jumped when hearing the voice that spoke next.
"What are you doing?" one of the personel aboard The Star Confederation asked. Bit began to bite his tongue, and then came up with the answer.
"Uh, there are a few... uh, intruder's aboard... and... and we're sniffing them out!" he replied. "See, she's got the pistol to shoot them!" Bit continued, pointing to the pistol fastened securily to Izumi's waist. Izumi nodded.
"Err, yeah! Yeah, yeah, and... and if that fails, the wolf will... um... eat them!" she added. The man scratched his chin, and then nodded in approval.
"Yes, okay. Continue," he replied, and then walked off. When he was clearly out of sight, Izumi let out a huge sigh, and turned to Bit.
"WOW, that was a good one," she replied. Bit nodded.
"Yeah..."
"That was a pretty damn good cover... I know I wouldn't have thought of it!" Izumi told him.
"Thanks," Bit replied, following her and Chemuk around the hallway. There were two new paths, and it depended on Chemuk's sense of smell where they would go. The hallway went on for about 25 yards and turned right, but it also kept going forward, for another 75 yards, and then it made it's final right turn. All of the hallways were black and dark gray marble.
"Chemuk says to go down that first corner," Izumi replied. They followed Bit around the first corner, to see three separate rooms on each wall.
On the left wall, there was a narrow door, narrower than the other two in the small hallway.
On the right wall, there was a very large door, about the same size as the one on the wall in front of Bit. It was painted a strange orange color, unlike the narrow one, which was just a normal oak door.
On the wall in front of Bit, there was a large door, same size as the orange one, that was steel.
Bit turned to Izumi.
"Can Chemuk tell us where to go, NOW...?" he asked. Izumi shrugged, and then looked down at her pet wolf, who looked up at her.
"Well, can ya, Chemuk? Let's see ya try..." Izumi replied. Chemuk's nose once again went to the ground, trying to sniff out Runa. She whimpered after a few moments of trying. "I guess not..." Izumi said, disappointed. "Let's try the regular door. The other ones intimidate me... kinda..."
"Okay. We'll go to the steel door next, okay?" Bit replied.
"Aw, why the steel one? Why not the orange one?" Izumi asked, a little mad.
"Because, you got to pick the first door..." Bit answered. Izumi folded her arms and followed Bit inside the regular oak door.

"Y'know, this is a bunch of crap!" Tigra whined, hiding behind Dom, who was armed with a pistol from the weapon closet. He was shooting at the random guards that were walking into the entrance. "They just keep on coming! Where are they coming from? We're gonna get caught, y'know..."
"Why are you so pessimistic?" he asked, hiding in the closet, watching Kashie throw random items from another closet he had been hiding in.
"I'm not really pessimistic... just right now... because it's a good time to be!" Tigra wailed, watching Dom shoot down another guard.
"No, now is the time to be optimistic, the time to believe in yourself. Stop whining, Tigra, and get a gun, for crissake!" Dominik replied. Tigra pulled down the highest gun that she could reach--an M-16. Dom took one look at her and laughed. "No, no, no... hehe, you'd better put that back, wouldn't want to cause too much noise." Tigra ran back to get a pistol and began shooting random guards with Dom.
Over on Kashie's side of the hallway, he found himself running short of items to throw. How did he know? He found it a little ridiculous when he found himself throwing crunched cans and rolled up newspapers from past days. It wasn't long before he recieved a call on his mini-console in his pocket, however. He pulled it out and flipped it open to see D-chan's face on the screen.
"Kashie! Hey, can we come and help yet?" D asked.
"W-wha? No! Nonono, D! I think we have this handled," Kashie replied. He almost found himself throwing the console for a minute, but he realized this before it left his hand, and picked up a small digital clock to throw, instead.
"Whaddoya mean, you have it under control? Let Dalanette, Lewis and I come in and help! Come on, it'll be fun!" D pleaded.
"Pfft! Fun!? D, we're trying to save Runa!" Kashie informed.
"Well, DUH, that's why I said it'd be fun, dumbass!" D-chan replied. Kashie rolled his eyes and picked up a heavy box of who-knows-what to throw. Then he glanced at a larger number of guards running up to the entrance.
"Listen, D, I gotta go, more guards. I'll call you when Bit brings Runa back so we can make our big getaway," Kashie replied, then clicked the console off. He glanced around the storage closet for something heavy to throw.

Zero kept on checking on Runa. It appeared to be that Crimson fell asleep with boredom trying to insult Runa any further. She, although, had cried herself to sleep. He wanted to know what she was thinking; if she was thinking of letting anything slip. Maybe she had noticed how he had been so light on her, unlike Miyuki and Paul? Suddenly, the thought of her thinking of him didn't seem to go over too well in his mind.
"Hmph... she got what she got... she's with The Alliance, Zero... remind yourself that it's her own fault. Don't try to help her out in her situation..." he said to himself. He decided to try and find Paul. There WERE a few questions he would like to ask Runa. One of The Confederation members walked down the hallway, only to find Zero standing there, "guarding" the room Runa was in. "You. I don't suppose you know where Paul is?"
"Actually, he left with Miyuki a little while ago to find The Setsunakute Ii. You need him for something?" the member asked. Zero just folded his arms.
"Nah," he silently replied. "He just lied to me, lied through his teeth..." he mumbled. "Get back to work."
"Yes, sir!" the member replied, then walked back out of the hallway. Zero decided to follow him and find something better to do than watch the girl all day. He began walking out of a narrow and winding hallway, and then opened up a small oak door. The door led to a room, and from the looks of it, the door was trying to be kept hidden. Zero pulled some dark red draparies over the oak door, and continued to walk out of the room. When he walked out, he closed the bright orange door behind him...
,;,;,;,;,;,;,;,;,;,;,;,;,;,;,;,;,;,;,;,;,;,
"Looks like a regular room to me, Bit..." Izumi replied, Chemuk at her side. She began to whimper a little bit, and walk around the room.
"What's wrong with her?" Bit asked. Izumi shrugged.
"I think she caught on to Runa's scent. Come on, let's follow her some more," she replied. Bit and Izumi walked up to the oak door and slowly pushed it open, letting Chemuk exit the room to sniff out Runa. They met a Confederation member standing in front of the orange door, his arms folded--Zero.
"And what the hell do you think you're doing?" he asked, calmly. Izumi felt the need to yell at this guy.
"Well, what the hell does it LOOK like we're doing!?" she asked, throwing her arms up in the air to make it seem more dramatic.
"Are you disrespecting me?" Zero asked. Izumi folded her arms.
"What the hell is this?! We're going our job, okay? Now leave us alone and let us finish it!" Izumi shouted. Zero sighed.
"What would that job be?" he asked.
"We're trying to find the intruders that got aboard The Star Confederation a few minutes ago! Didn't you hear about it?!" Izumi shouted again.
"No. Explain these intruders," he demanded.
"WHY THE FUCK SHOULD W--" Izumi started, but a hand was quickly placed over her mouth. Bit glanced at her and shook his head.
"Well, they came in a group of five... two girls and three guys... and they brought along... a chicken... yeah, it was a dark brown chicken," Bit replied. Zero cocked an eyebrow.
"Really... and do you know their names?" he asked. Izumi nodded.
"Uh yeah! The guys were... um... Bite, Dominoe, and Kacey," she said.
"Yup, while the two girls and the chicken were Tigriss, Izzi, and Chemara," Bit added. There was something about them that Zero didn't quite believe, but he nodded.
"Right. Okay. Continue with your work. I have this part under control. Go through the steel door and continue your search there," he said. Izumi and Bit nodded and quickly opened up the steel door, ran through, and shut it. They faced each other and began to laugh.
"Wow! That was another close one! Guess we'll have to get used to it, huh?" Izumi wondered. "And... Izzi?"
"Well, should YOU talk... Bite? Come on, I think you could've come up with something a little bit better..." Bit replied, somewhat smirking. "Besides... I think Izzi somewhat suits you..."
"Really? Well... I don't think it does..." she responded. "And if it were to be anything of a nickname, it would have to be Iz."
"Well, okay then..." Bit mumbled.
"Come on, Chemuk! Try to pick up Runa's scent again!" Izumi said to her wolf partner. Chemuk wailed. Izumi looked up at Bit.
"Uh... you don't suppose that... waitaminute... Runa was probably somewhere behind that orange door!" she said.

Arizda: *passes out chocolate pudding, Kudo Bars, Twix/Crunch bars, F.O.R.D animals, Slim Jims, and peanut butter* Weeeell... this is all dandy. :) It seems as though Bit and Izumi have been able to get away with THE TRUTH! Yaaaa... and... erm... where are Brad and Leena? Lol, I don't even know ^_^;; I'll have to bring them back... and... will Kashie end up calling D-chan and the rest of the Star Team sooner than he expected? Will Runa be successfully rescued?
