After Eve Gundam Wing

Chapter Two

Their operation's plans were simple and basic, yet it would be difficult to pull off because there were so many factors they did not know. Their plan was to fly there without the Gundams and attempt to infiltrate the base through the way Stephen had intended to.

They had to fly in a low flying, small jet that could carry them under and perhaps even through any radar. They wanted to get in undetected. Then, upon landing, they would set out from the craft and infiltrate the factory though and underground tunnel designed for escape during the war years that it was built.

They currently sat in the jet, on their way to the factory in Iceland.

"We need someone to stay at the jet," said Anita. "Someone has to remain behind."

"I will," said Rachel. "That way, if anything goes wrong, I'm still here at least. Besides, if things get tense, I probably won't be very good in combat."

"Alright," said Jin. "Now onto the actual mission."

"We're going to be landing almost a mile from the factory," said Anita. "We can't get in too close for obvious reasons. The jet will be dropping us near the tunnel that leads to the factory. It's concealed and secretive, so the persons there might not even know about it. The tunnel will carry us a mile through the dark into the factory. From there…we don't know anything else. There are no blue prints available for this thing."

"So we'll be playing be ear," said Kreed. "That's what makes it fun anyway."

"Shouldn't be too much of a problem," said Jin. "Everybody dress warmly. We are in Iceland after all."

The nearly super sonic jet screamed along the flat ice of the large island under 1000 feet, extremely low for such a flight. They were all dressed in grey uniform armor camouflage suits. Only a single handgun did they carry for a weapon.

"Prepare for jump!" called Rachel from the cockpit. The other three pilots were standing and waiting at a large hatch in the back of the plane. The jet slowed to a hovering speed and floated just above the ground. "Opening hatch!" she shouted.

The large door slowly slid open. "Let's go guys!" Jin shouted over the loud engines. He leapt from the plane and landed in the snow and ice below. The others followed him and landed next to him. Kreed waved Rachel off from the ground, a signal to leave, and the doors closed, and the plane left.

"Is everyone alright?" asked Jin. He received a nod from everyone. "Okay then. Let's find this underground lair and get Stephen as quickly as possible!"

"This is it!" said Kreed. He was pointing at a covered door, which was hidden well by years of snow and ice. They were able to pry it open, and within a minute, they were all three inside and in the pitch dark.

"Flashlights on," said Anita. All their lights simultaneously turned on, and they found themselves in a narrow tunnel. It was dry and cold, and the walls were curved and concrete.

"This tunnel's pretty old," said Kreed. He shined his light down the tunnel. It carried on for what seemed to be an endless distance. "That's our destination guys. Let's move hastily now."

Jin led the way through the tunnel, his pistol drawn in one hand and the flashlight in the other. The other pilots also traveled in this manner, ready for anything that could happen.

Meanwhile, two people sat in a dark room watching several monitors. On one of them, the three pilots walked along. In other words, they were being watched.

A female sitting at the monitors laughed. "I can't believe they're actually here already."

"Heroes tend to be pretty predictable," said a man standing behind her. "They'll be here soon. Keep an eye on them, and let them get here safely."

"Of course," said the woman. "We wouldn't want anything to happen to them before we grant them their surprise welcome."

"Indeed," replied the man.

Going back to the pilots, they walked along quickly, their weapons still drawn and ready for action. Finally, they came to the end of the tunnel, where only a large steel door stood.

Jin pulled a device out of his coat and turned it on. It was just a small black monitor with a tiny white dot on it. Every couple of seconds, a ring pulsed from the center of the screen. It was a kind of radar, which, as previously described to them, was tracking Stephen's signaling device from which he sent Deathscythe's warning signal.

"His Gundam is in this base," said Jin. "But Stephen isn't with it. We're going for Stephen first. Got it?"

Everyone nodded. "Good. Remain as quiet as possible for the rest of the mission. It's likely that we may have already been seen, but we don't want to give them any advantages. Remember…lives are on the line."

Jin turned to the door and pushed it open. The mission to infiltrate the factory was complete. Now all they had to do was find Stephen.

End Chapter Two

This was a short chapter I guess, but it's going to get kind of busy soon. You'll find that this story will jump to action quicker than the last because there's not as much explaining to do.

Anyways, thank you to the two who have reviewed as of today. I notice they are both frequent readers of my previous story. Good for you guys.
