Chapter 4: Vanish
"What in the world is that?" Usagi squeals.
The craft exiting the explosion is somewhat damaged and is losing altitude, but is headed away from the populated area. However, it is moving very slowly.almost drifting like a blimp. A person on foot could probably catch it.
"Looks like it is in trouble we should go help," Rei yells from a block down rushing towards the group.
"Right," the group says in unison as they begin to chase after the ship.
"So, what kind of craft is that anyway," Minako asks, "I have never seen a plane design like that before."
"I don't think anyone has seen an aircraft of the bulkiness and size to begin with," Makoto reasons, "That thing is massive."
"I think we can be rest assured that thing is military though," Ami chimes in.
"How could you deduce that, Ami?" Usagi inquires.
"Look at the contraption on the nose of the craft.it looks like a radar or something to that effect." Ami continues.
Rei begins, "Why is a military craft above Tokyo and why is it crashing."
"We lets us figure that out when we get there," Makoto states.
The group begins to tire as they run down the streets of the city. Especially considering the rest of the citizens of running away from the craft's crash point. The mob begins getting awfully thick and the girls are beginning to fight a seeming stampede.
"What are we going to do?" Usagi yelps as someone pushes past her hard and fast, "We will never get there if this continues."
"Hey girls, need a lift?" someone calls out nearby. The group turns and notices Haruka and Michiru in their car motioning them to pile in.
"It's going to get a little tight, but I want to know what is going on," Minako asserts.
All seven girls somehow fit into the car and since nothing is actually heading toward the craft the group is actually able to make good time.
"What do you make of this, Haruka," Rei asks.
She then notices Haruka's face is quite serious and she focused on the task at hand. The girls begin to worry and Michiru notices and speaks up.
"The situation is not a good one." Michiru starts. "The military hasn't done exercises over Tokyo in a very long time, not to mention that it seemed to be a dangerous live ammunition exercise.
"So that is a military craft," Ami muses.
"Yes, and none like we've seen before," Haruka speaks catching everyone off guard, "I have a friend that works on military planes and he told me about the models they use. This one is nothing like any Tokyo would use."
"So, what does that mean," Minako asks worriedly.
"That craft could be hostile," Michiru states bluntly catching the girls off guard as they gasp in unison.
"We need to follow it for many reasons. To find out where it is from, why it is here, and what shot it down." Michiru turns and looks at the girls, "Did you see anything just before the explosion happened like another plane or something?"
"No, we only saw the explosion," Rei explains.
"That is exactly what we saw," Michiru explains herself, "This explosion came from nowhere, and the plane seemed to come from nowhere also. This can't be good!"
What in the world is going on now?" Haruka yells at the windshield of the car. The group quickly turns their attention from Michiru to outside and sees something quite strange. The plane is now coursing purple sparks and bolts over the body of the craft.
Haruka slams on the brakes. The girls scream with Haruka's sudden action except for Michiru who keeps her eye on the craft. The car stops and silence envelops the car. The girls look to Haruka and Michiru who have a scared expression on their faces.
"What happened?" Usagi demands.
"The.the.the craft just vanished into thin air," Michiru stumbles though.
"What is going on?" Haruka asks herself.
Another small boom, like a dull thunderclap is then heard. The group immediately turns its attention to where the explosion originally happened and gasps at what they see. The explosion surges bigger as a large and sleek jet emerges with none other than a giant 50ft tall robot attached to it, hanging from its left side.
"What in the." Makoto mumbles.
The group exits the car and watches the jet and robot zip off much faster than the ship and the other way.
Haruka throws her hand up in the air, "Well, that figures. Who's up for some ice cream, I need to relax now that there's nothing we can really do."
The group slowly turns their shocked gaze towards Haruka who is sporting a slight grin while rolling her eyes. The girls shrug their shoulders and pile into the car silent trying to sift through what actually happened.
---Meanwhile (? - The Explosion)---
The scene was surreal to Trowa. No sooner had him and Heero entered the explosion and prepared to be vaporized then they had plainly appeared in a strange tunnel. The tunnel was blue with purple bolts, sparks, and pulses zipping every which way. The only thing that looked familiar to them was the transporter a good deal ahead of them. It was looking like it had a place to go.
"Trowa, you there?" Heero asked over the short-range communications.
"I'm here; wherever here is," Trowa comments back.
"That's affirmative," Heero responds lightheartedly to the joke. "Can you tell if we are moving anywhere?"
"Let me check," Trowa responds. 'If I look to my surrounding it would seem we are moving quite fast, but my speed indicator says I am drifting backwards.' Upon that thought Trowa realizes his systems are functional again. He quickly returns to Heero, "Heero, we are actually drifting backwards and our systems are working again so we do have control again."
"I've noticed and my gut feeling is to follow that craft, we've got to stay close and figure out what is going on." Heero clarifies.
The two suits warm up and begin to proceed forward. As the two proceed the resistance begins to strengthen and the mobile suit are being knocked around a little.
"I'm getting rocked quite a bit, but the Gundam seems to be handling it quite well," Trowa reports.
"Just think what the transporter is experiencing," Heero states in a matter- of-fact way. "But, we need to be moving faster, I'm going to transform and you grab on. We should make better time that way.
"Roger," Trowa responds.
Wing Zero begins to transform and get knocked around quite a bit, but only dents show up on the body. Within seconds, the transformation is complete and HeavyArms grabs onto the jet and they begin sliding through the tunnel at a better rate of speed. As they proceed after the transport, they notice an image appears before it. And reaches the images, goes through it, and becomes part of the image.
"Strange," Heero mutters.
"Guess we don't have much of a choice, but to follow," Trowa ponders aloud.
"Roger that," Heero affirms
The two near the point where the transporter entered the image, and the image appears again, but the transport is nowhere in sight.
"Is that Tokyo?" Trowa announces over the intercom.
"Looks to be, this is getting interesting," Heero responds.
The two near the image and a white flash blinds them temporarily and the sounds of an explosion enter their hearing again. Once the glare wears off, Heero and Trowa find themselves suspended above what looks to be Tokyo.
"So, it appears as though they have found a teleport invention," Heero states as if not surprised.
"Interesting, but we should probably leave since the Earth isn't used to seeing the Gundams," Trowa rightly perceives.
"Already on it," Heero mutters as Wing Zero quickly escapes the scene toward the mountains to the north.
"I've also picked up on the transporter," Trowa informs," It is cloaked and giving off jamming signals.
"What is it doing?" Heero responds.
"Based on the jamming signatures, the craft has to be badly damaged from that rough trip," Trowa reports, "It is heading west and is losing altitude, it should crash a good deal out of the city, so we don't have to get involved now. I am sending the coordinates to you now of possible crash site."
"We will definitely investigate that out once we get our bearings and contact the others," Heero orders.
"That's right, they are probably worried sick after seeing us literally disappear," Trowa jokes in his plain way.
"But we also found out importantly what is going on," Heero begins, "if he can teleport around, hiding mobile suits could be very easy."
'I hope not,' Trowa thinks to himself, 'Must we really continue fighting this way, even though there are just a few people who want to cause trouble.'
Back in Wing Zero, Heero thinks to himself, 'I almost lost everything back there, but it worked out. I'm sorry to worry you like that Relena, I'll thank you for your response and inform you later on what's going on.'
Heero realizes he is once again losing his thoughts in Relena and quickly recovers, "Trowa you see any good landing areas where we can hide these for the time?"
"Let me check the area, we are headed the right direction from what I remember from the last time we were here," Trowa militaristically responds.
Trowa goes on tapping keys and stops abruptly at one of the images. He taps a few keys slowly, obviously for an easy task for the computer and peers at the screen hard.
"Heero, can I ask you something?" Trowa asks confusedly.
"Affirmative," Heero responds plainly.
"During Operation M, didn't Tokyo's military base get damaged and they had to change its layout completely?" Trowa explains.
"I do believe so, that was Wufei's doing I also think, why do you ask?" Heero answers.
"Well, mainly because the base looks untouched from the way it was years ago," Trowa reflects.
Heero looks over at where the base lies and notices it looks as if the base never had been attacked. 'It has only been a few years since the war. There is no way they could have completely rebuilt everything and replaced all the damaged terrain and such,' Heero thinks hard about. "Trowa, what do you think could've caused that?"
Silence envelops each pilot as they begin to ponder the possibilities of the situation. Heero concentrates on finding a landing spot while thinking about the turn of events. Meanhile, Trowa quickly taps his computer and checks out other various sites that have been altered since the war. "Heero, we've got an odd situation," Trowa reports.
"Continue, what do you have," Heero orders,
"The military base and other sites that have been bombed or attacked or other altering events in the past couple years show no signs of anything out of the ordinary happened in the past years. However, some landmarks seem to be more advanced than they previously were when we left." Trowa fumbles though trying to make heads or tails of the situation.
"What do you think that means, Heero," Trowa sighs.
"Trowa, they might have created something a bit more than a teleporter," Heero moans, "We need to get to the bottom of this and fast."
