Chapter IV: preparations
.
President Camford found Weis talking to the Koenig Wolf. She smiled as she walked towards him. He always talked to zoids however strange it may seem.
The thing was, she saw the effects it had on the zoids he had spoken to.
It was really weird. But it was his way.
"Hello Weis," she greeted. Weis turned and smiled. President Camford was taken back when the Wolf looked at her curiously.
"It's okay king," Weis said. "She's an old friend." the president sighed as she heard the word 'old'.
"Must you refer me to that?" she asked teasingly. "But you only aged four years and it has been FOURTY years since I saw you last."
"I fixed my cryogenic capsule and entered it," Weis sighed. "Only to be awaken again with no memories and a headache the size of the western continent." President Camford laughed.
"Same old Weis," she smiled. "So, you found her."
"Actually, she found me," Weis smirked. "The thing was, I didn't know her at that time."
"Amnesia is generally an after effect from the cryogenic capsules, but it restores in time," President Camford said.
"Don't I know it," Weis said. "Anyway, I really have a bad feeling about this dig."
"You too?" Weis nodded. "How come?"
"The story about the legend hits closer to home," Weis said. "And knowing the old man, he'd try to reactivate it."
"Who was the pilot?" she asked quietly, fearing the worst.
"It was wild," he answered. "He rebelled against his creators and wrecked havoc to the people."
"Can it be stopped?" she asked.
"I don't know," Weis said. "I... the prince barely did."
"But he did," President Camford smiled. "And he will again." Weis smiled and hugged her.
"Thanks," he said. "That means a lot to me."
"I know," she smiled. "However strange this may sound, you talk like an older man."
"Strange experiences does that to a person," Weis said. "So?"
"Good luck," she kissed him on the cheek. Smiling, she left him and walked away.
The Koenig Wolf looked at the two fleshlings and growled in confusion.
Weis looked up and smirked.
"Don't try to understand," he said. "It confuses me as well."

"Two Gustavs?" Reese asked as Weis prepared a second Gustav for their journey.
"We can't all fit in one Gustav," he explained. "Each will be towing four sleds."
"Four?" Moonbay asked. "Isn't that a little too much."
"I asked them and they agreed that they can do it," Weis said.
"Asked who?" Van asked.
"The Gustavs, of course," Weis frowned like it was an obvious question. "Moonbay will be carrying the sleeper and the Saix, the Breaker and the Psycho. And I'll be carrying the two equipment sleds and the Blade Liger and the Koenig Wolf."
"Are all the zoids necessary?" Fiona asked.
"Extremely," Eve said as she looked at Weis. "Precautions."
"Precautions?" Raven asked.
"What if the artifact starts to attack us," Weis said. "Call me paranoid but I'm not facing anything that's as strong as a Deathsaurer with my bare hands."
"He had a terrible experience with a similar incident," Eve said to Reese and Fiona. "Scared the living daylights out of him."
"You'd be scared too if you were all alone digging in a cave where legend said that a succubus sucks the life out of vir... er, men," Weis glared at his companion. The women were trying real hard not to laugh.
"What kind of zoid was it?" Irvine asked.
"A Deathpion," Weis simply said. Reese and Fiona blinked in surprise.
"What is it?" Raven asked almost alarmed by their reactions.
"The Deathpion was a terrifying zoid," Fiona said. "It was one of the zoids the Deathstinger was based."
"What happened?" Reese asked Weis. With a sigh, he looked at the two zoidians.
"I got my butt kicked," he turned away and looked at the Koenig Wolf, who was strangely snickering. "It was NOT that funny."
Strangely, the other zoids joined in the laughter. The others were shocked but Weis was crest fallen.
"You're all against me," he said and went towards the Gustav. "Let's go," he climbed into the cockpit and looked at the group. "We're wasting time."
"Where's doc?" Van asked as he, Fiona and Eve joined Weis in the Republic's Gustav.
"He's going to follow," Fiona said. "He has something to take care of."
"Plus the old geezer can't stand to be in the same room as me," Weis mumbled. Eve laughed.
"I think the feeling's mutual," she smiled.
"I shudder to the thought of him and I have anything MUTUAL," Weis said as he started the Gustav.
"You two don't get along, do you?" Fiona asked worriedly. "Why?"
"Years ago, his arrogance almost cost the life of Elise," Weis looked at Eve with a sad smile.
"Who's Elise?" Van asked softly.
"Elise," Weis closed his eyes. "Is President Elise Camford."

President Camford looked at the archeological team disappear into the horizon.
"Madam President, you called?" General Kruger announced himself as he stood beside her.
"I want all our troops to be ready," she said in an official tone.
"For what?" he asked curiously.
"Precautions," she looked at him sullenly.
"I see," the general smirked. "Alright, but I need to know the exact nature of the threat."
"That, General, is what I do not know yet."

End of 4

A/n: I do not know President Camford's first name so I made it up.
To LadyWolf: I have spelled the Konig wolf as Koenig because it is how it is pronounced. If you look at the box, the O has two dots on it and is an OE sounded vowel. Did you know that the word Konig or Koenig means King? A perfect name for a wolf with the same description. Have you read my other zoid fic? It's called Blood on the snow.
Thanks and review.
