Van and Fiona opened the door and looked out of it. Seeing that there was
no one there yet, the two of them carefully moved down the halls.
Unfortunately just as they were about to round a corner, a guard moved
right in front of them. "Here they are," the guard yelled. 'Oh no,' thought
Van as a number of guards appeared from almost out of nowhere. "You aren't
going anywhere," said the first guard. Van just grabbed Fiona's hand and
ran as fast as he could. Gunshots sounded all around them but the two of
them managed to avoid them. "Be careful. Don't shoot the girl," came Zack's
voice from the group of guards, "Should have known that he would be here,"
muttered Van as the two of them ran. The guards were following behind them
at a fast pace. Van and Fiona turned a corner out of sight of the guards.
The guards came around the corner there was no one there. "Check every
room. That is the only place they could have possibly have gone," ordered
Zack. The guards scattered out and walked up to all of the doors.
A guard walked into one of the rooms. At first it appeared to be empty. He held a gun in his hand prepared to shoot anything that he saw. The room that he was in was a medical station that no one was using at the time. He carefully maneuvered around a number of the table with medical supplied in them. Suddenly a noise came from the other end of the room. He quickly turned around and went in that direction. There was once again nothing. "Must have been my imagination," said the guard. "Everything looks clear here," said the guard as he opened the door and walked out of the room. All was quiet in the room until the sound of an air vent being opened came. Van slowly got down and looked around. Seeing that no one was coming he motioned to Fiona to come down. "Sorry about that Van," said Fiona looking at the ground. "It's ok. I guess that it was a little cramped in there. At least he didn't bother to look in there," said Van. "Yeah," said Fiona.
"Well was there any sign of them?" asked Drake seeing that everyone was returning. "No sir," said all said. Zack was getting furious at this. "Stand by the doors. Make sure that no one comes out of them. I will go and check on the other areas," said Zack. Marching off. He walked down a hallway trying his best to suppress his rage. Ryan then walked up to him. "What is it you want?" asked a furious Ryan. "There is no sign of them in the area that I was assigned to patrol," said Ryan. "I figured that. They are still somewhere in this base. They are doing a good job so far from hiding from all the guards. However it is only a matter of time before they screw up and are caught," said Zack. "Post guards at all of the exits," said Zack. "It has already been done. They should be spotted soon enough," said Ryan. "For everyone's sake you had better be right," said Zack. "I will head to the hanger see if there is anyone there that has seen them," said Ryan. "Good," said Zack walking off.
"Where exactly are we?" asked Fiona taking a look around the room. "By the looks of it I would say that we are in a medical ward," said Van also looking out of the room. "I see," said Fiona clutching her shoulder. Van noticed this. "How is your shoulder?" asked Van with a worried look on his face. "It is just a scratch. It will be fine," said Fiona with a reassuring smile. Van didn't seem convinced. "I said that once before remember? I also ended up in a coma because of it," said Van. He walked up to Fiona. "Let me take a look at it," said Van. Fiona just nodded her head. She slowly lifted up the sleeve of her shirt to reveal a very small cut on her shoulder. "It doesn't look too bad, but we had better clean it up a bit," said Van. He walked over to one of the cabinets that was in the room and looked through it. He found just what he was looking for. He took out some rubbing alcohol and grabbed a few towels. "Come here," said Van. "Ok," replied Fiona as she walked over to Van. She took a seat in a chair as Van put some of the alcohol on the towels that he had grabbed. As carefully as he could he rubbed it over the wound on Fiona's shoulder. Fiona winced lightly when he did this. "Sorry. Did I hurt you?" asked Van. "No it just stung a bit," said Fiona. When Van was finished he put away the supplies that he had taken away. "There. How does it feel?" asked Van. "It feels a little better," said Fiona with a smile. "That is good to hear," said Van smiling back.
The guard that had checked out the room that Van and Fiona were currently in let off a yawn. "This is so boring. Haven't they found them yet?" he asked himself. With his back turned to the door he didn't notice that it was slightly open and someone was looking out of it.
Van closed the door as quietly as he could so as to not alert the guard. "It looks like we won't be getting out that way," said a disappointed. "Then how are we going to get out of here?" asked Fiona with the same look on her face. Van just look behind her. Fiona turned her head to see what he was looking at. All she saw the air vent that they had hidden in. "I guess that that is the only way out," said Van. "But first we might need a few supplies. I have no idea how far the closest town is from here and I don't know where the base is. So we could be camping out for a while once we escape from this place," said Van. "I guess so," said Fiona. Van walked around the room as if looking for something. "This will do," said Van as he pulled out a bag. "Now for the supplies," said Van. He went around the room collection some supplies that they need such as medical stuff, some food that he had found in the room, and some spare blankets that they had around the room. "That should do it," said Van as he zipped up the bag. "Shall we go?" asked Van holding a hand out for Fiona. She happily took it. The two walked over to the vents and Van looked up to it. "I will go first to make sure that the way is clear. Ok Fiona?" asked Van. Fiona just nodded her head. After a bit of struggling due to his injuries he managed to make it up and Fiona followed closely behind him.
The two of them crawled through the slightly cramped up air vents. "Where are we going to go through these?" asked Fiona. "We are going to try the hanger. Maybe we can quietly get in a zoid and get out of there before they notice us. Either that or I can create a diversion for us to use to get out of there," said Van. Suddenly Van stopped and signaled for Fiona to stop too. "We're here," whispered Van. He slowly opened a hatch and crawled out of it. Fiona just remained where she was. "Come on," whispered Van helping Fiona down when she came. Van took a look out from the hiding place and noticed that there were a good amount of guards around the area. "This may be more difficult then I thought," said Van. He then noticed a command wolf that was nearby. He grabbed Fiona's hand and slowly made his way over to it. "Get in," whispered Van giving Fiona a boost into it. Van then took off. "Where are you going Van?" asked Fiona. "I am going to create a distraction so we can get to the controls to the hanger door. When I do this you take off. I will catch up as soon as I can open up the doors," said Van. He then noticed the worried look on Fiona's face. "Don't worry. I will be ok. You just need to pick me up before you leave," said Van. "Ok," said Fiona.
A sudden tumbling of boxes took the guards in the area by surprise. "What was that?' asked a guard. "Lets go check it out," said another. They walked over towards it but neither of them noticed Van jumping over some other boxes. Another crash was heard. "Their here," said the first guard. "We'll get them. No need to call the others," said the second guard. They walked over to it.
"This is my chance," said Van as he jumped out and ran towards the now moving command wolf. "Fools," laughed Van when he spotted them and they were only now seeing what was going on. He ran up to a control panel and typed a few buttons on it as the guards started to run at him with the gun ready to fire. The hanger door opened up very slowly and Fiona moved quickly to get out of it. Van jumped onto the leg and climbed up to the cockpit. He hoped in and noticed that there was only one seat. "This is just great," said Van as he took the controls as Fiona sat in his lap blushing slightly. "Out of all the zoids we could have chosen we chose the one that had only one seat," said Van. "Let's just get out of here," said Fiona. "Oh right," said Van as he moved the command wolf at full speed out of the hanger.
The bright sunlight hit their face full force once they had left. "We have been in there for so long that the sun just seems so bright compared to the darkness of that base," said van. "Van there are zoids approaching," said Fiona. "Don't worry. I will take care of them," said Van. Before he could get a shot off though. The command wolf was hit by several shots. They were now riding over a very dry area. The shots just kept coming at them. "This isn't good," said Van. "I can't get them off me," said Van. "Van watch out," yelled Fiona as a shot hit the dried ground and opened up a huge crater in it. Van was having a little trouble getting the command wolf to stop since they were so close. They reached the edge of it and fell down into it. Van and Fiona let off a yell as they plunged into the depths of the dark hole.
A guard walked into one of the rooms. At first it appeared to be empty. He held a gun in his hand prepared to shoot anything that he saw.
