Disclaimer: still don't own Gundam Wing pouts

Holy crap! I soooooo forgot about this fic ; heh.. really sorry guys, lots of crap happed and I know it's been three years but hey! Better late then never, right? Anyway, you all have Relena Scott to thank for me remembering this and staring it up again. Check out her fics, they're good Anyway, here's chapter 10 which I took down because half the reason I couldn't keep going was I entered Siren and she's not my character.. yeah..

The gundam pilots and Kat sat outside the OZ base planning their attack. Kat was going to sneak in and bring them out uniforms. Then they all were going to sneak in and hack into the computers. There they would find out if DC had been activated and they'd plan their next move.

Kat shifted her hat downward so her eyes wouldn't be seen. She walked coolly and calmly to the door and typed in the code. She held her breath praying that they hadn't changed the code. The door opened and Kat walked in.

The boys sat silently; waiting for a good fifteen minutes before Kat walked out, bag in her hand. She walked over and dropped the bag at their feet.

Quatre looked up at her, "You were gone for quite a while.."

Kat sat next to them, "Kyle was in there.." she noticed their blank looks and sighed, "One of Nicolo's friends.. he'd recognize me."

The boys pulled out the clothes from the bag and wondered off to change. Kat leaned against the tree watching the door carefully.

It wasn't long before the boys returned and Kat pointed to the door, "That will lead us to the laundry room and the meeting rooms. The other side would be faster to get to the control room from, but there will be more people."

Wufei scoffed, "We should go the fastest way."

Duo shook his head, "They'd recognize us too Wufei. We should go in the more stealthy way."

Kat rolls her eyes and looks at Heero. He looks back at her and nods heading for the door Kat had come out of.

Kat falls into step behind him and soon the others follow. Kat punches the code again and they all enter. They allow Kat to take the lead and she goes up a flight of stairs. She then turns left, then right, right, left, left, right, straight, right, left… they lost track after a while.

Duo shook his head and muttered, "How do you know where to go?"

Kat smiled slightly, "Lots and lots of practice and getting lost.. there." She pointed ahead of them, "That's the control room."

Trowa and Heero went to the door and peered inside. It was empty. Kat typed in the code again and the door slid open. Kat went straight to the main computer and the boys took the others. Quatre and Duo pushed a desk against the door to give them more time if they were discovered.

All six typed furiously as they tried to hack into the system. It wasn't long before:

"There," Kat's voice called out into the near silence, "They have DC but haven't activated her yet. Can't imagine why.."

Quatre had the answer, "It's broken. It won't start up for some reason."

Heero added, "They're looking for Darkness Wing."

Kat spun around at that and gulped quietly. She felt a tremble run through her and she continued going through the files.

Trowa looked over at her, "Do you know why Dark Cat won't start up?"

Kat gave a small shrug, "Could be a number of reasons.."

Duo looked over at her, "Apparently Nicolo just came to this base, they think he can fix it."

Kat spun around in her chair, "And they're right. If something's wrong with DC Nicolo can fix it.. unless DC is refusing to be started."

Quatre looked at her, "It can do that?"

Kat nodded, "In which case it's waiting for someone to find it and use it for what it was meant for."

Wufei shakes his head, "A gundam that literally chooses its pilot.."

Kat nodded, "I'm going to try and take DC.."

They all turned to look at her shocked. Kat looked back at them and pulled up a few things on her screen.

"Don't give me those looks, as long as they have DC we're going to have to be looking over our shoulders hoping it stays deactivated. I have to try… that way we'll at least know we attempted to take it away."

Trowa blinked, "You said-"

Kat sighed, "I know, and it is bad if DC's activated, but it's a little less bad if I activate it. On the plus side if I can't activate it then Nicolo probably can't either."

Heero nodded, "Go Kat, we'll cover you."

Kat got up and pulled a map up on the screen, "That's where Wing is," she pointed to a holding block area, "This hall," she traced her finger down a hall, "is the sleeping quarters. Most of the soldiers would be there this time of day. The guards work in 2- hour shifts. They're stationed here, here, here, and here," she indicated with her finger.

"Understood," Heero said as Kat made her way to the door.

She peered into the hall, then headed for the holding block. She kept her head down and avoided all eye contact. She was almost there when she ran into the one person she never wanted to see again, Nicolo.

She walked by him with hopes he wouldn't see her, if only she was that lucky.

"Katrina Khushrenada, to what do I owe the pleasure my dear?"

Kat froze in her footsteps, unsure if she should keep going or confront him. She slid her hand into her pocket and gripped her gun. She turned to face him, pulling out the gun and holding it just out of his site.

He smirked at her, "I knew you'd come back to me."

Kat smirked back, "In your dreams," she sighted the gun and was about to shoot when and explosion went off behind Nicolo.

Kat saluted him with her gun, "That's my cue," she spun on her heel and ran down the hall with all her might.

She hit the code to open the holding block and ran in. She looked up at Dark Cat and smiled slightly. Good to see you again… She ran over and hopped up onto the gundam. Common DC, open up for me…

The cockpit opened and Kat smiled. She slid into the cockpit and hit the buttons. The cockpit closed and the gundam came to life.

Kat smiled, "Perfect… now then, to put you back in hiding… but first."

She typed a few things and sent it to Quatre.

She shook her head, "Now DC, where should I hide you?"

She blinked as Dark Cat displayed coordinates on the screen. Kat shook her head and smiled.

"If you say so DC… To the Artic then…" Kat smirked down at the OZ soldiers as they tried to stop her.

"See ya!" Kat took off, shooting a hole in the roof as she went.

The G-boys escaped from the base just in time to see a gundam break through the roof. They blinked as they watched it take off and decided to get out of there before all hell broke loose.

The boys made it back to the house and fell onto the couch.

"If you ask me," Wufei said, turning on the TV, "that girl is a lot more trouble than she's worth."

Quatre shook his head, "We owe her our lives Wufei."

"Have you forgotten that she was sent to kill you?"

"Have you forgotten that she didn't? We were supposed to Operation Meteor, but we didn't. It's what we choose to do that makes us, not what we were sent to do."

Wufei crossed his arms annoyed and Heero's computer beeped. Heero got up and walked over to it, opening the beeping window.

"Mail for you Quatre."

Quatre blinked and walked over to the computer opening it, "That was Dark Cat, Kat's hiding it."

Duo shook his head, "It'll only be found again."

Trowa looked at him, "We can't destroy it though."

Heero typed a few things, "I've been wondering what connects Kat to the gundams and I think I found it."

They all looked at Heero and he typed a few more things, "She has a plate in her head. According to OZ it was put there to keep her from feeling things. I think it's what makes her part of the gundams."

Quatre blinked, "The plate is connected to the gundams? So destroying the gundams would disconnect the plate from them, and if the plate's attached to her brain, it would shut down part of her mind."

Heero nodded, "Right, so if the chip were to be removed we should be able to destroy the gundams."

Duo smiled, "Sounds risky, but I think the end result will be worth it."

Again, sooooo sorry for forgetting about this ; I probably won't update again for a little while, graduation's next week. R&R please!
