Van followed the line of soldiers for a while. Before long he saw the exit
to the city. He overheard something though before he left. "Hey have you
seen George?" asked a soldier to another. "How exactly can you miss him?
That guy is huge," said another soldier. Van gulped in response to this.
'That must be the big guy that I knocked out,' thought Van slightly
nervous. "Go look for him and if you don't find him just leave without
him," said the soldier. 'These guys must not have too much respect for each
other or they just don't like that guy,' thought Van. Van wasn't able to
listen any longer because the next second he was in a truck heading to a
place he didn't know.
"Hey Thomas," said Irvine. "What?" asked Thomas. "I have a question that has been bugging me for a while," said Irvine. "What's that?" asked Thomas. "Who was it that you got together with that night?" asked Irvine. Thomas seemed to turn a deep red as the question was asked. "Well?" asked Irvine very curious as to who it was. "It's," said Thomas. "Yeah?" asked Irvine getting closer. "It's," said Thomas. "Yeah?" asked Irvine getting slightly annoyed. "None of you business," said Thomas making Irvine fall over because he was leaning too far forward. "What is with people dodging questions I ask them lately?" asked an annoyed Irvine. "Because you are prying into things that they don't feel like answering," said Thomas taking a drink of the coffee he had in his hands.
The truck that Van had been riding in for the last few hours finally came to a stop. Van was upset because he couldn't find out where the base was now and also that he had huge cramps from sitting down for so long. He was lucky thought because no one seemed to even notice that he wasn't supposed to be there. "Alright. Everyone out," yelled a soldier as he opened the back door to the car. Van carefully got up and walked slowly out of the back doors. "Hey you. Hurry up," yelled the soldier that opened the door. Van quickened his pace and moved as quickly walked out of the doors.
"Alright everyone. If you have anything that you wish to report you had better go talk to him now,' said the soldier once everyone was off and the cars had left. 'Must be talking about their leader,' thought Van listening carefully to what he was saying. "I suggest that you watch out though because he isn't really in a very good mood right now," said the soldier with a smirk on his face. Van looked around and saw that some of the people were a bit nervous. 'Wow. I wonder who this guy is, if so many are afraid of him,' thought Van. "Move out," ordered the soldiers. They started to move into the middle of nowhere which slightly confused Van. Van followed them though so that he wouldn't look at all suspicious. They suddenly stopped and Van looked to see why. There was nothing there. Van watched though as a control panel came out of the sand. The lead soldier typed a few things in and the panel went back into the ground. For a few seconds nothing happened but then a door appeared out of the ground. 'That is why we could never find their base. It was hidden under ground,' thought Van as he walked through the doorway after all the others. Van was amazed because the place was huge. He was so distracted by this that he almost didn't notice when all the soldiers in front of him started to go their own ways. 'Good now I will have a chance to look around,' thought Van going off on his own as well.
As he walked through the halls he found it very hard to remember where everything was. People were talking all around him. Suddenly it all fell silent and Van was curious as to why. He looked as all the soldiers started to part to make a hole through the hall. Van looked into it as he did what everyone else did and saw two men walking down it. One was a medium sized man and the other was a huge man that Van couldn't help but feel that he had seen before. Suddenly it struck him. His mind flashed to a few years ago as he remembered the date he had with Fiona. He remembered how it was ruined when a gang showed up out of nowhere and they ended up chasing them. When they thought they had escaped that man showed up trying to take Fiona but Van protected her and got hurt in the process. 'Wait a minute I think I may have even saw him before that,' thought Van. He then remembered when Raven came to talk to him when the base was attacked and they managed to capture one of the enemy soldiers but someone shot him before they got any chance to interrogate him. He then knew that it was him as well. Van suppressed his rage and looked at the other guy. He was about Van's height with medium length black hair. 'He must be the leader considering that the big guy is following him and with the way that everyone else moved out of their way,' thought Van as his eyes followed the two. When they walked by everyone went back to doing what they were doing before but Van followed closely behind the two yet he stayed hidden in case they were to spot him.
Van followed them for a while until they came to a pair of doors. The doors slid open and the two of them walked inside. Van walked to the side of the door and carefully looked in. It appeared to be a hanger that they had walked into. Van walked in and walked to a separate area but made sure that it wasn't too far away. "How do you suppose that we capture the two zoidians?" asked Ryan starting a conversation. "Raven won't leave Reese alone and the other girl Fiona is protected by the guardian force," said Ryan. "That is a problem isn't it?" said Zack not even looking at Ryan. "What shall we do Zack?" asked Ryan. 'So the leaders name is Zack,' thought Van still watching them. "We will do what we always do Ryan," said Zack. "I see. We will just kill all that get in our way," said Ryan. "Yes. Van and Raven are the two that will end up getting in our way the most because of their pathetic feeling for the zoidians," said Zack. "Those two aren't exactly easy to kill. Raven's organoid got him away from me when I attacked him all those years ago, and Van has all of his friends to help him if he is in trouble," said Ryan. 'He is the one that did that to Raven,' thought Van as he cringed from the thought. 'Raven is one of the toughest people I know and this guy was able to beat him,' Van thought. "You had better not get cocky for what you did to them. They are still not people you want to underestimate," said Zack. "I realize that," said Ryan. "Listen I need to go talk to someone so we must hurry," said Zack starting to walk towards the door. "You go and I will take this to him. He need to have it since he is helping us," said Ryan holding up a disk. "Fine," said Zack as he walked through the doors. Ryan was about to walk out when he had an idea. He turned around and had a look around. "Hey you," said Ryan pointing at Van. "Yeah?" asked Van not turning to face him. "Can you take this to the head scientist?" he asked Van. Van thought that this could be a good chance to find out what was going on. "Sure," said Van. Ryan then threw him the disk. "Take it to him quickly," ordered Ryan. "Yes sir," said Van. Ryan then let out a laugh. "No has ever called me sir," laughed Ryan. Van gave a nervous laugh. "Well?" asked Ryan. "Huh?" asked Van. "Take it to him now," yelled Ryan as he pointed out the door. Van immediately ran out the door and took a right. 'Must be new since he went the wrong way. So I had better tell him where to go,' thought Ryan following after Van.
Van opened a door and was lucky because he managed to find a computer in there. He closed the door and locked it. Ryan who followed him saw him do this. 'He wasn't lost,' thought Ryan as he walked towards the door with a smirk on his face.
Van sat down in front the computer and put in the disk. When he did a bunch of data popped up on the screen. Van looked over the data and saw that it talked about Fiona and Reese and all that had happened within the past few years. "This doesn't do me any good. I already know about all of this," said Van very quietly. He continued to read. He was so deep into reading that he didn't hear the lock to the door click and that it had opened and closed. "Alright. Here is something," said Van but before he could even get to read it a pair of large arms wrapped around his throat.
"Hey Thomas," said Irvine. "What?" asked Thomas. "I have a question that has been bugging me for a while," said Irvine. "What's that?" asked Thomas. "Who was it that you got together with that night?" asked Irvine. Thomas seemed to turn a deep red as the question was asked. "Well?" asked Irvine very curious as to who it was. "It's," said Thomas.
