Wufei looked at the gun in shock. Empty. The gun had been EMPTY. Taulis smiled at headed towards him. Wufei whipped the useless pistol at the OZ officer, and hit him between the eyes. Taulis swore as the pain erupted in his head, and Wufei RAN. Wufei slammed the button that opened the door to the base and darted out, running as fast as he could, not stopping, never looking back, just running for all he was worth. It killed him inside to have left Duo and Quatre in that sadistic bastard's control, but he had no choice. The only way he was going to be able to save them was if he wasn't stuck in there with them. He ran all the way to the edge of the island, then waited there, wondering where to go from here. He couldn't very well swim, handcuffed as he was... He suddenly heard an all too familiar engine, and swore as he saw Shenlong Kai streak out of the base. He cursed colorfully. "Nataku!" he screamed in rage as Taulis flew straight for him. He tried to dodge, but Shenlong reached out and grabbed him. Wufei screamed as he was pitched back inside the base, and the door hissed shut behind him. All the power had been cut. Wufei paled. "Oh, SHIT." He said as he looked around. All the mobile suits, including Deathscythe Hell and Sandrock Kai, were blinking, and blaring alarms were beginning to go off. They were going to self-destruct, every last one of them. Wufei couldn't believe it. He, Quatre, and Duo had survived huge battles, won against masses of enemy troops, and now, here they were, about to be blown to smithereens by their own Gundams and a handful of Leos, all because of ONE MAN. // No, stop it, Wufei no baka! THINK! // he told himself. He ran for the door, fumbling in the blaring red lights and darkness to find the switch. After an extensive search, he found the spot where it had been before it was ripped from the wall. He swore and ran back into the base towards the living quarters. He knew there was a way to seal the hangar off from the rest of the base. He had to find the switch! Wufei groped frantically at the walls, and almost cried with relief as he punched a button and a thick metal door began to slowly descend. All he could do was pray that it was enough to hold off the blasts that the exploding Mobile Suits would produce. He knew he had done all he could. Wufei sighed as he walked towards the jail cells. He had no idea how he was going to break into the door. He swore to himself, and was surprised to hear a shaky voice respond from within. "Wufei?" Quatre asked hesitantly, dragging himself to his feet and staggering towards the door. His eyes were accustomed to the very faint light, and he could make out Wufei's darker figure against the other shadows. Wufei's eyes flew wide. "Quatre?!" he asked, shocked. The Arabian let out a sob of joy and ran towards the door. "Oh Wufei! I'm so glad to see you!" he said, leaning on the back of the door. "Or...glad to HEAR you or...glad you're here at all!" he said, thrilled. Wufei smirked. "Well, I can't say I'm glad to be here, but I am happy to see... or whatever you...it's too damn dark to really see you." Wufei fumbled around for the lock. He heard a clicking noise, and grabbed at it. He found himself holding Duo's lock-pick. "Nani?! Quatre, where the hell did you find this?" "Duo keeps it in his braid." Quatre said with a small smile. After five unsuccessful minutes of clicking and cursing, Quatre finally had to ask Wufei why the door wouldn't open. "Can't you unlock it?" he asked, half despairing. "Unlock it?" Wufei said with a growl. "I'm having a hard time *finding* the damn thing in this lighting!" Quatre couldn't help a small smile. Finally, there was a sound that filled Quatre with joy. The sound of a lock unlocking. Wufei flung open the door and strode in. He gave Quatre a hug, so happy that the blond was alright. Then, out in the hangar, the mobile suits, Deathscythe Hell and Sandrock Kai exploded. ~ ^ * ^ ~ Heero and Trowa barely managed to pull their suits out of the way of the explosion of the Underground base of Lake Guenivere. They were flung backwards into the water. After they managed to regain their control, Heero looked at the crater in the ground and screamed. "If you are dead...OMAE O KOROSU!" he screamed, sending Wing Zero hurtling towards the hole to survey the damage. Heavyarms wasn't far behind. |
