"Relena," Trowa said, trying to calm her but to no avail. If all of them were calling at once, she knew it couldn't be good at all. He took a deep breath. This was going to be a lot of explaining, something he wasn't looking forward to. "Something's come up," He started. "Something about Heero…"
Kidnapped"Duo, you got the license plate number?" Quatre questioned while driving past the mayhem in the streets.
"Yeah." Duo chirruped cheerfully, knowing that with the license number they would be able to easily find their friend. "Major accident?" He furrowed his eyes as he caught sight of some ambulances. He looked at some children with small cuts and bruises, quite shaken up.
"Yeah…" Quatre also frowned at this. "People should drive more safely." He commented absent-mindedly.
"And you're one to talk." Wufei mumbled, sulking in the back seat with having the 'injustice of sitting next to Maxwell.' "You always get guards yourself." He grumbled even more as he crossed his arms, sunk into the plush seat and looked out the window with a glare painted on his face.
"Aw lighten up Wu-man!" Duo smacked Wufei's shoulder cheerfully getting a low growl from the Chinese man, which he pointedly ignored.
Quatre made him was out of the traffic jam where civilians were trying to get information about the street-blocking accident.
Trowa, in the shotgun seat, or the seat next to the driver's seat, rolled don his window slightly to catch snippets of the conversation from the large crowds. "Yeah, there was a car…ran a stop light and hit another one." Said one. "Officer wounded by the people." "Yeah, said something about criminals and stuff. Took it as rambling."
Trowa rolled up his window and sighed as they continued making their way down to the police building where records were kept of ever license plate number. After reaching their destination, a cheerful Duo, a grumbling Wufei, a silent Trowa, and a smiling Quatre got out of the car and walked up the steps into the building.
Of course, who would have thought that it would be such a mad house inside the building. The clanging of phones being hung up, the hustling and bustling of officers were swarming around them and there were criminals being dragged in.
A bell rang somewhere and the place quieted down as some officers went out for their lunch shift and others back to their rooms to enjoy their home packed meal. Quatre smiled slightly at his fellow pilots as he ushered them over to a desk while asking the secretary if they could get information on the car.
"Hm…" The lady hummed to herself as she sipped her drink and typed the number into the computer. She turned back to the fellow pilots and the man that owned Winner Corps.
"Well?" Wufei questioned her with slight irritation as he glanced at her out of the corner of his ebony eyes.
"I'm sorry." She told Quatre who looked at her, slightly shocked. Wufie grunted, waiting for the rest of the speech.
"Excuse me?" Quatre said with slight worry about his fellow pilot now. This was the only lead that they had.
"This car is out of commission." She remarked to them. "There was an accident recently, on…" She looked back at the computer screen. "Route 99, CAVE." She said. "The vehicle ran a stoplight and crashed into another car."
Trowa blinked. 'Car hit another, officer wounded, ran red light, Route 99 CAVE.' The thoughts of the accident were thrown back at him. "We just passed through it." Trowa commented as he looked at Quatre who held worry in his eyes.
"Great." Duo muttered. He crossed his arms as he marched out of the office, giving the lady a rewarding glare for her "efforts". "Just great." He threw open the car's door and got into the back seat, a glare painted on his face with a just as mean scowl.
"I hope that Heero wasn't hurt." Quatre said as he bit his lip, concern evident.
