Well this is it... No not the end. Just Chapter 6. YAY! If this weren't electronic you'd see me doing a dance.

Day 6: Spreading Disaster

12:01 A.M. Preventers BL-4 L2 Branch

get this done soon," Duo said.

"Duo it's past midnight," Wufei said. "It's really time to go." He reached over and grabbed Duo' shirt and dragged him out the door. Duo was complaining the whole way.

2:03 A.M. Winner L2 Estate

Quatre was lying in bed, trying to sleep. Thoughts of the previous day were running through his head. He remembered the horror of the people dying and the screams they emitted. Trowa rolled over and draped an arm around Quatre. "What's wrong?" he asked.

"I can't get it out of my head," Quatre whispered.

"Get what out?" Trowa asked.

"The screams," Quatre replied. "The way they looked. Why is this happening?" Quatre asked, sounding as if he was on the verge of tears.

"I don't know," Trowa answered truthfully. "Maybe some sick bastard thought it would be fun, like Duo said."

Quatre slammed a fist onto the bed. "I'll kill him!" he growled.

Trowa was shocked. He had never seen Quatre this angry before. The one eye visible from under his hair widened slightly. "Quatre, you know you can't do that. Let justice be done. Don't get jail-time just because he's a psychopath."

"You sound just like Wufei!" Quatre yelled jumping up and standing next to the bed. "This guy's killed over one hundred people so far and he'll just get jail-time?! Fuck no! I'll kill him jail-time or no."

With that he dashed out of the room, slamming the door behind him. Trowa sighed, but didn't follow. Quatre needed time to cool off.

2:08 A.M. Winner L2 Estate

Quatre stormed down the hallway passing by a very shocked Abdul. He had never seen Quatre this angry. Quatre was so lost in angry thoughts he didn't see the dog pass under his feet. He tripped and fell to the ground. Abdul ran over and crouched down next to Quatre. "Are you all right Master Quatre?" he asked.

"Quick. Get the license number of that dog," Quatre groaned. (1)

Abdul laughed and said, "Maybe you should stop reading the comics."

"They're funny," Quatre replied. "And I really need funny right now," he mumbled.

As Quatre walked away Abdul bit his lower lip and murmured, "I hope this is over soon."

2:31 A.M. Hidden Laboratory

Master O walked into the lab and looked around for Dr. J. "J! Where the hell are you!" he shouted.

"I'm here," J said, stepping out from another room. "Did you get into G's lab yet?"

"No Doktor S and Instructor H are still working on it," O replied.

"Then why are you and not there, helping them?" J asked.

"Because they wanted me to tell you that G is dead," O said.

"How do you know that?" J asked calmly.

"We tracked his mobile phone and found him dead in an apartment."

"Whose?" J asked.

"We don't know. Records show of no one living in the apartment," O answered.

"He must be a damn good hacker to get into government records," J said.

"No doubt."

"Do you think the killer knew G?" O asked.

"Probably," J said. "Otherwise G wouldn't have been there."

A beep sounded from one of J's computers and he went to switch it on. The face of Doktor S popped onto the screen. "We're in," he said. "It's going to take us some time to get into his computers though."

"Alright," J nodded. "Contact me again when you have enough information."

4:01 A.M. Maxwell Residence (snicker)

Wufei couldn't sleep. Duo, however, had fallen asleep as soon as he had hit the bed. Wufei slipped out of the bed and went into the living room. He turned on the TV at a low volume and went into the kitchen to fix himself a snack.

He knew he wasn't missing anything on the news. They had been covering the disease all day and night and would report the same news over and over again. He sat down on the couch and started flipping through the channels. He settled on an old episode of Law & Order, which, amazingly, was in it 300th season. (2)

Halfway through the program the phone started to ring. Wufei dashed over to pick it up before Duo woke up. "Maxwell residence," he said.

"Major Chang?" the voice at the other end said.

"Yes."

"What are you...never mind. I think you need to come at look at this, sir," the man said.

"Alright," Wufei sighed. "I'll be right over."

4:32 A.M. Preventers HQ

Lady Une sat at her computer going through files on known terrorist organizations that had the means to make bio-weapons. She had come up with two. The Tsurugi Corporation seemed the most likely, but Une still doubted it was them. It seemed like it was more of a lone actor.

The profiler hadn't given her much in that area. "A white middle-aged male. Probably a loner. Most likely has a background in science." To the last sentence Une had a reply of, "No shit."

The profiler ignored her and continued. "He might have been kicked out of a lab and applied to get into others, but was rejected."

That was all. Une decided to check that out. She started searching again.

4:57 A.M. Preventers BL-4 L2 Branch

Wufei had finally managed to drag Duo out of bed and over to the labs, though he had fallen asleep standing up in the DECON shower.

A scientist waved them over when they walked in. "This showed up on the computer while we were doing more research," he said.

Wufei read:

You must be thinking I'm a pretty sick bastard for releasing this virus. I'm confident you're smart enough to figure it out though. Especially you Dr. Maxwell. Maybe you're not as smart as I had hoped.

I wanted a challenge from you, but so far I'm not getting any competition. Maybe you need help. Okay. Here's a hint: The answer is right in front of your faces. When you figure it out it shouldn't take LONG to get me out of your HAIR. I wouldn't mind the population lowered though.

Please don't give up. Sudden prayers make God jump.

Oh and Dr. Williams, always tell a woman she's pretty, especially if she's not.

-Prometheus

When Wufei was done he looked up at Duo. So did everyone else. "What's he talking about Duo?" Wufei asked.

"I don't know," Duo replied. "Why do you think I would?"

"I don't know. Maybe it was that fact that he specifically talking about a lot, and that he emphasized long and hair," Wufei said.

"The hair part could be Sally!" Duo said.

"It could, but with the first part in mind, it's pretty hard to believe the hair part is Sally."

"So... are you saying that I had something to do with all this?" Duo asked.

"That's not what I'm trying to say," Wufei retorted.

"Well that's sure as hell what it seems like!"

Wufei sighed. "Listen Duo," he said. "I'm just saying, it seems strange that he mentions you in his message."

Duo rubbed his forehead. "I really don't know why he talked to me personally." Then something clicked. "Wait a minute! He talked to Dr. Williams too!"

Wufei wasn't listening. He was deep in thought. "He made it seem like you had something to do with the solution," he said.

"Well if that's what he's saying, I know nothing about it," Duo said.

"I'm sure you don't," Wufei said. "But because of that we need to work harder to figure out what he's talking about. Jones, Truy, Hayashi, and Gadly. I want you searching for this guy. I want everything down to what he likes for dessert."

"Gonna poison his food Wufei?" Duo asked.

Wufei decided not to dignify that with an answer. The scientists dispersed and went back to their stations. Wufei went to call Lady Une, and Duo went to see if Quatre and Trowa had arrived yet. He stared out the window, but his thoughts weren't really on the scenes outside. His thoughts were on the message sent by Prometheus. Why was he being talked to? Why was Dr. Williams mentioned? That meant that they were probably being watched.

He thought about the "long" and the "hair". After a few minutes of thought his eyes widened. He ran to the DECON room and waited until he was decontaminated to strip off his Racal suit and dumped it in the incinerator.

Duo ran into is office and slid open a drawer. He pulled out a syringe, found a vein and jabbed the syringe into it. He drew some blood and put it into a vial.

Duo ran back over to a window that looked into the BL-4 lab. He put the vial into a tube that would decontaminate it and then send it into a box in the lab. He then pressed a button and spoke into a microphone. "Dr. Roberts, see how this blood reacts to the virus," he said.

Roberts came over grabbed the vial, took it to his station and started work.

Professor G's Lab 6:02 a.m.

Master O had finally gotten into G's lab and was a little too happy about it. His bragging had caused a fight between him and Doktor S. J had managed to end it fairly quick.

J was about to hack into G's computer when his com-unit started going off. He turned it on and Heero popped onto the screen.

Heero got straight to the point. "Duo thinks he's found a cure for the virus."

"What does he think it is?" J asked.

"His own blood," Heero answered.

"Yes," said S. "That's what it says on G's computer."

"So now we've found the cure," J said. "All we need now is the man that released the virus."

"We're working on it over here," Heero said. "We need a list of the people G knew. We're going to start there."

Wow. That was short. Well shorter than I would have like it to be. Yes, I know that the part were Duo found out that he had the cure sucked, but work with me people. Chapter Seven should be up soon. It's going to be the first of two parts of the search for Prometheus. See ya!
