"Can't you go any faster? We're wasting time."

"It's hard to hack into my father's database, believe it or not!" Hotaru hissed. They had been trying to get into Professor Tomoe's information from the laptop that Akiko owned, but it was proving to be useless. "It's not like you're doing anything resourceful."

"You're the one using my computer, how can I?" Akiko demanded.

"Don't you have another one?"

"Kaiya does, but I don't know where she puts it." Hotaru sighed and pounded on the laptop. But before she could open her mouth or turn around, a small binge was heard, followed by an access accepted. "Alright Hotaru! You finally did it!"

She just sighed and continued to work on getting them the information. "I've gotten in?" She asked in disbelief. "But I just . . . forget it! I'm not even going to wonder about it."

She typed furiously on the keyboard, trying to find what she needed. "It's got to be here somewhere," she heard Akiko mumbled.

"Where is it, is the question." Hotaru said absentmindedly as she continued her search. She quickly skimmed the prints of her father's work when she was halted by Akiko.

"Go back one," She ordered.

"There's nothing there." Hotaru said. "Why?"

"Because I saw something and it didn't look pretty." Akiko answered.

Hotaru sighed and shrugged, then abided by Akiko's words and scrolled up. But then she to caught what Akiko had seen.

In smaller print than the others, making it harder to see, was the word, 'Assassin Project Form One.'

"Do you think that's it?" Hotaru asked.

"Like old wise farts say, 'you never know until you try.'" Akiko answered.

"I'll take that as a go for it," Hotaru mumbled and clicked the icon. In seconds, a whole set of information popped up, and on the top, were the words, 'Exterminate Ex-Gundam Pilots.'

"See, told ya so." Akiko teased.

Hotaru mumbled something and just read through it quickly. "They're at the airport waiting for a flight to come in, carrying Quatre and Trowa."

Akiko nodded. "Where do they go from there? It's past the landing time."

"It doesn't say."

"Crap. Now what?"

"Maybe if we go to the airport, we'll catch them on the way out?" Hotaru suggested.

"Perhaps, but it's highly unlikely." Akiko answered.

"It's a start." Her friend reminded.

Akiko shrugged and grabbed the left over black bag, pouring it's contents on the saturated floor. "Looky here, the Prof left us some toys."

"Don't tell me you're going to take those?" Hotaru asked in disbelief. "Kaiya's your friend, and you're not going to kill the ex-Gundam pilots."

"Rule number one, you got to go prepared, no matter where you're going." Akiko said as she pulled out to pocket knives and placed them in her boots. "And rule number two, intimidation."

Hotaru just sighed and grabbed a gun and a pocket knife. Truth was, she really didn't like weapons, but they didn't have a choice, Akiko was right.

'Kaiya, you better be alive by the time we get there or I'll go against my morals and kill those bastards myself.' Akiko thought as they headed out of the apartment and into Hotaru's car.

~*^*^*~

Kaiya silently watched as the five ex-Gundam pilots greeted each other and talked amongst themselves. 'They have no idea what their fate is.' Kaiya thought. 'It almost makes me pity them . . . almost.'

She left her seat and walked towards them, keeping an appropriate amount of distance, as they left to go get their luggage. An exasperated sigh escaped her lips. She was growing impatient, a trait she wasn't used to. Always she was the level headed one, but this time, she wanted to get the job done and over with, so she could avenge her horrid past.

'You've destroyed everything boys, and now you'll get what you deserve, a nice and painful death.'

She continued to follow them, enjoying their unawareness. They left the airport laughing and Kaiya pursued them silently.

This would be fun, this would be fun in deed . . .

~*^*^*~

The two teenagers drove in silence, mutely wondering what was to come of them. They fought two wars and won, apparently they were capable of many things. Fighting was no doubt one of them.

Akiko found it somewhat strange, going to save the lives of those she hated. She had every right to loathe the five boys, but something didn't seem right. Ever since she and Kaiya had seen so much mass destruction before their eyes, all of which caused by the Gundams, they had wanted to get revenge.

But that was the problem.

Akiko couldn't remember any of it. She didn't remember how or why they destroyed their homes. All she remembered was one day living peacefully, and the next stumbling onto the Prof's mansion as orphans.

She kept this to herself most of the time, thinking she was insane, blaming the Gundams for what they did. It was so east to place the blame on someone else, it removed everything off her shoulders.

But this in particular caused her pain. Their had to be an explanation for this, and that was the only reason Akiko stayed with the Prof, to find it out. She knew what that mad scientist was capable of, and erasing someone's past could be one of them. It would be a cinch compared to everything he had done so far.

"Akiko," Hotaru called, snapping the girl from her thoughts.

She had completely forget about Hotaru! "Huh?" She asked.

"Look, it's them."

'What?' Akiko thought. She looked up and realized they were in a parking lot, and the five boys were just getting into their van. 'Kaiya must be somewhere around here then!'

Frantically she searched, her brown eyes darting this way and that. She spotted her life-long friend in the shadows, lurking soundlessly through the parking lot, and getting into her Convertible, following the pilots out.

"Looks like we made it just in time." Akiko murmured as they followed Kaiya's new set of wheels.

"Apparently so."

"We have to follow Kaiya, and stop her."

Hotaru only nodded. This was going to be harder than it seemed.
