Chapter 3: Hidden

After seeing the news, Irvine has to tell Karl what might put the entire guardian force on stand by.

"You mean to tell me if you saw on the news, that Thomas escaped?" Karl says eyeing Irvine.

"Yeah it said just that." Irvine says running his hand through his hair.

"The place where I sent him, is a high security facility. No one can get out unless they like cold lead in the back." Karl says smiling to himself.

"The security must have been doing something other then their job." Irvine says.

"Well if I see any signs of my brother I'll most definitely contact the authorities." Karl says turning back to the Zoid being built.

Irvine walks off, back inside the fortress.

:::I know what I saw.:::: Irvine says as his stomach growls.

Behind the base*

A dirty blonde has thrown the authorities off in another direction, while he makes his way to the base.

"I finally made it. Now to get my revenge." He says as he continues walking towards the base, looking for a way in.

Inside*

Van and Fiona are done modifying the new armor for the liger.

"Van, I'm worried." Fiona says turning to him.

"About what?" Van says turning his attention to Fiona.

"Even though it's been a year, what do you think can happen?" Fiona asks with worried eyes.

"Happen like what Fiona?" Van asks walking over to her.

"The memories that Thomas left behind." Fiona says looking down.

"Fiona he is so far away and out of his mind, he probably doesn't even know where we are, let alone remember what he did." Van says taking Fiona in an Embrace.

"I guess you're right van." Fiona says looking up at him.

"You know Fiona now that we are engaged, I was wondering if maybe, at any time, that we could you know." Van says gently laying his forehead on Fiona's head.

"I was wondering when you were going to ask me that." Fiona says smiling.

"Oh really." Van asks looking down at the grinning Fiona.

"You know it." Fiona says leading him out of the room.

In back way*

The smocked blonde have made it to the back and can see a door.

"This is the emergency back way." He says opening it, while covering his head. "I got to blend it."

The smocked blonde gets in and can see the entrance is clear.

"Good no one is around. I have to change out of these clothes before---- His words are suddenly cut short for when Moonbay comes to the area.

"Where have you been? You're needed in the First aid sector." Moonbay says looking at the smocked blonde.

"I had to get something to eat yeah that's it." He says in a deeper tone of voice to cover his real voice.

"Well if you did that come back this way." Moonbay says walking off. The blonde follows her to a point, but when he sees a closet he ducks in it. Moonbay continues to walk without knowing he ducked away.

In the closet*

There has to be something here I can wear to keep from being recognized." He says looking at his not-so-much variety.

While looking he can hear voices.

Van and Fiona are walking up that way talking about their marriage.

"I say blue and white." Fiona says as van nods.

"Maybe, But I would say white and red." Van says smiling.

"Van I want blue." Fiona whines.

From inside the closet he can hear their voices.

"That voice. Fiona, My Fiona sounds just as lovely as before I left." The blonde says slightly peeking out the door. He can see another warrior next to her. His eyes narrow and he begins growling.

"Fligheit." Is the word he says, with venom dripping from his voice.

"Well it's what you want to do then, Fiona." Van says hugging her close. "You know I spoil you too much."

"I know." Fiona says as they turn the corner.

"I have to change out of these clothes, blend in and wait for a time to get my revenge on Fligheit." The blonde says turning back to the clothes.

The First Aid sector*

Moonbay and Irvine are standing around a pilot that got hurt from a recent Zoid battle.

"I wonder where that doctor went." Moonbay says looking around the medical sector.

"Didn't you find him?" Irvine says putting an IV on the hook.

"I saw him by the back door near the emergency entrance." Moonbay says looking at the pilot. "Will you be ok?"

"I'll be fine. It's only a minor arm injury." The pilot says.

"What caused it?" Irvine asks the pilot.

"Someone was in the road when I was bringing the saber fang back from battle. I told him to move, but instead he was being stubborn." The pilot says. "I tried to go around him, but he had a flare and stuck it some where on the saber once I got out to get him out of the way."

"What did this guy look like?" Irvine asks setting the heart monitor.

"Let me see. He was wearing a white smock and had blonde hair." The pilot says laying back.

"Did you see which way he went or no?" Moonbay asks.

"Well after my saber fang exploded and I was avoiding the debris, he came up to me and stabbed me in the arm. I don't know who he is and where he came from, but he attacked me." The pilot says.

Hearing the description made a picture of what Irvine saw on the news, come into his mind.

"Ok you said you didn't see which way he went?" Irvine asks turning back to the pilot.

"No I didn't. The pain was so intense, I passed out from the lost of blood to my right arm." The pilot says closing his eyes. "I certainly hope you find him."

Moonbay turns to Irvine.

"Irvine, do you want me to put the rest of the guardian force on alert?" Moonbay asks.

"No don't." Irvine says fluffing up the pilot's pillow.

"Ok whatever you want. I'm going to go find the others ok?" Moonbay asks leaving the first aid bay.

"Sure ok." Irvine says turning to the pilot. "Will you be needing anything else?"

"Well I really didn't need to be hooked to a monitor or an IV, but as long as I'm here, No." The pilot says turning over.

Irvine turns and leaves out the first aid bay and goes into the hall.

"High security, white smock, none of this is making sense." Irvine says to himself. "Something isn't right."
