Chapter Five: Secret Battle Grounds

*Jump, run, jump, run, jump, run, " Sai!" 'fall'.

Sai sat up , barely breathing hard, and stared at the man
who had stopped her from finishing the hurdles she had been jumping.

" Sai, I have just received word that there is a new Red
Fang base. I need you to destroy it. Don't hack the computer, just blow it up.
Mission accepted?"

" Yeah, mission accepted. Where is it?"

" Ten miles east of the last one. They're getting bolder.
Show them someone is watching them closely, and that if they mess with peace,
they'll be sorry."

" Roger that Doc J. Those bakas will be in fear up to
their necks when I'm done with them."

"Sounds good. Go to it." With that, the doctor left the
training room and Sai got together her infiltration gear.

She put on her sleek black pants and skintight long
sleeved black shirt. She made sure her hair was up and that her gun holsters
were not going to make any noise when she moved. She put on a knife at her
ankle, guns at her calves, thighs, hips, and chest, and her sword on her back.
Then she put her capsule of explosive devices in her belt loophole and headed
out for the base.

Ever since the war was over, rebel groups started popping
up all over. Usually the Preventers handled them, but after the Eve Wars with
Marimeia, she had decided to give them some help. The Eve Wars. She remembered
it like yesterday.

~~~Christmas Eve, yr. 196~~~

Sai once again got into her black Taurus. She looked over
the switches and finally ignited the engine. Up in space, a battle loomed.
While she watched the crazed and misguided Wufei fight the pilot of Wing Zero,
she waited for the old Aries shipment that was being sent as back up to the
battle on Earth. She was going to stop it before they could inflict any more
damage to the fragile peace that had been achieved only last year.

As the shipment drew closer, she watched as Wufei turned
to watch the shipment as well. She saw the pilot of Wing Zero turn his Gundam
to face her. She knew he saw her, but didn't make any move to either help her
or destroy her. Then the carriers began to move again, Wufei to attack Hiiro,
and Sai began her final attack upon the Aries troops. She saw as she destroyed
the last of the troops the two Gundams fall into the atmosphere to end their
fight on Earth.

~~~Present~~~

Since then, the Red Fang had appeared on Earth. They hated
the colonies for all the trouble they had caused them, and wanted to destroy
them. They were beginning to gain more power, so she and Doctor J had taken the
next steps. If they had gotten any larger than they had been when they had been
discovered, Doctor J would have skipped over having Sai handle them and gone
straight to the Preventers. However, Sai had been able to keep them at a
minimal in numbers and supplies by destroying bases and shipment lines. She
severed the chain link fence and tiptoed into the base with the soldiers on
guard ever seeing her. She strategically placed her bombs all over the base, in
a hanger here, a soldier's barracks there. Finally she got to what appeared to
be the main office. She quickly and quietly used ki blasts to kill the workers
and went over to the loud speaker.

"Attention, may I please have your attention. As of this
moment, you are all now hostages of mine. This base is now mine, and any
attempts to over take it will be in vain. If you resist, you will be killed. If
you do as order, you prolong your life as long as I see fit. If anyone so much
as moves, and I can see you all from my position, you will be killed. I would
like all senior officers to the Office now! Thank you, and have a nice day."
Sai smirked as she said the last line. This was one base that would be sorry
they had to deal with her. She looked up as a knock on the door was heard. She
stepped beside the door and said to the people outside : "You may enter." Ten
men all came in, all with guns firing all over the room. They stopped, seeing
no one.

"Thank god, no one's here, it was all just a…"

" Just a joke, I'm afraid not." The men turned to face a
closed door and the woman who had closed it. " Drop your guns, now. Good.
Please, have a seat on the floor."

"What do you want from us?" One of the older, more
superior officers wanted to know.

" To punish you for trying to disrupt peace. Here's the
deal. I'll bring you a soldier, and you can either hold the gun to his head and
shoot him, or hold it to your own head and hope to Selene the gun has no
bullet. Sort of a Russian Roulette type deal. Wanna play?"

" Your sick in the head. We won't play your twisted game!"
Sai turned and shot the man who had spoken.

"Anyone else want to sit out?" No one answered, so she
pulled a soldier from out in the hall into the room. "Let's begin."

~~~Hour later~~~

"What a pity. And he was cute too. Oh well, only four
officers left, and no more contestants to play against. Whatever shall I do
with you all? I know. For being such good sports and playing so nicely, I'll
let you go. Tell you what. I'll give you fifteen minutes to get off this base.
And twenty four hours to get to the Preventer's headquarters to tell them about
your little scheme against the colonies. If I find out that not all of you go,
I'll kill you all. If you all go, I'll leave you to the Preventers. What do you
say?" Vigorous head nods were seen from all four of the men, who were still
sitting on the floor, but now in puddles of blood. "Good. Clock starts now.
Go!" With that, the four men ran with all their might.

" What wimps." Sai said to herself as she walked out of
the base. After fifteen minutes, she pushed the little red button on the
clicker she held, and the base was turned into rubble. "Mission complete."

~~~Preventer's Base, Sank Kingdom~~~

"Your telling me that you planned to blow up the colonies?"

" Yes, and we're sorry! Please tell her we came! Please don't
let her kill us!"

" Please keep her away! We all came!"

" We told you! Please!"

" Slow down! All three of you are going too fast. What's
wrong with him?" Lady Une, head of Preventers, Wufei Chang, Sally Poe, Lucretia
Noin, and Zechs Marquis all sat around a large round table, with four very
upset men next to the door. Three of the men were babbling about how they had
come, how they had told her their plans, and were begging her to save them from
'HER' as they put it. The fourth was just standing there, not saying anything
with his mouth wide open. Though she had continuously asked what his problem
was, none of the others seemed to hear her.

"Enough!" Cried Wufei. He held up his gun for good
measure, thinking it would scare them into silence, but all it did was make
them cry louder. Finally, the one who
had been in shock seemed to wake up.

" I'm sorry. We've just had a very harrowing experience.
Why not put them in another room, and I'll explain."

" Fine, Zechs, help me with them." Noin said, standing up.
Even she was beginning to get a headache from the crazy men. When she and Zechs
returned, the man was finishing his story up.

"…fifteen minutes to get out, and twenty four hours to get
here, or else we die too. So, we came right over. Please, protect us. We're
sorry for plotting against you like we did, but please help us."

The preventers on the room, with the exception of Noin and
Zechs, sat still. " Jim, put him in a well-guarded room. Make sure there are
guards near the other three men as well." Lady Une stood to take charge. Then,
Wufei stood up.

" I would like to take this as a case and work on it
with more professionals."

"Who in particular, Wufei? It's too big for just you and
Sally." Une answered, already knowing what he had in mind.

"Not with Sally, but the other Gundam Pilots."

"You've got it then. But I want full updates on a regular
basis. Sally, I need you here to check on the well-being and mental health of
our guests anyway, and Zechs and Noin, I want security here stepped up to it's
highest possible point. We take no chances from now on, both with the Red Fang,
or this new, seemingly free-lance assassin who is so deadly, got it?" A chorus
of "yes mame" was heard around the room.

~~~Quatre's Home, Sea Cliffs of the Sank Kingdom~~~~

"…made them play Russian Roulette? That's horrible."

" It was a good idea."

" Hiiro, how can you say it was a good idea? It nearly
made them crazy!"

"Quatre, in making them play, and then letting them get
out alive, who ever this person is has shown the Red Fang that they are being
watched carefully, and if they do more than they should, they will be punished
for it. This new assassin scared the Red Fang into hiding, which means we have
more time to find them before they attack the colonies hard."

" Hiiro's right. It may not have been the nicest thing to
do, but it got this 'Sai's' point across. "

" Trowa, you think letting people kill others and
themselves is a good thing to do too?"

"No, but Hiiro's right too. Though it wasn't moral, it did
help us. The thing we must be careful of now is this new assassin getting to
bold with all of her future missions."

" Regardless of what we think or feel, we need to catch
the Red Fang's main base. As I've checked into it so far, I've found a great
number of bases; all of which have already been hit, and hit hard. Sometimes,
there wasn't even any building foundation left, only scorch marks on the
ground."

" Wufei's right. When I check all the supply lines, they
had been destroyed the same way, no remains, just scorch marks." Added in Duo.

" I have, however, noticed a pattern in the places
of their bases."

"Hey, Wu-man, you're a poet and you didn't even know
it!"

" Kisama, Maxwell, you baka, let me finish. They all go in
a circular pattern around the Sank Kingdom, all of them right outside the
country's boarder as a matter of fact. We finally found a base that hasn't been
hit yet, but security is incredible. There are only two entrances, and five
guards on the outside of each. There are booby traps, trigger alarms if you
don't know where to step, secret passage ways, and probably cameras and sound
bugs everywhere. They don't want it to be hit the same way the others were, and
none of the other bases have been as heavily guarded. Therefore, we assume that
this base is the main one."

" Sounds good. Do we go tonight?" Asked Trowa.

" Yeah, everything is set up and ready to go. If
everything goes according to plan, the
base will be destroyed, and hopefully the rest of Red Fang's plans as well."

"You've thought of everything except one thing,
Wufei."

" What did I forget Hiiro?"

" If everything we've heard about this new assassin is
true, this 'Sai' will have already figured the same things about the base. Will
another person complicate our plans?"

" Yui, this 'Sai' character won't stand a chance against
us. We are not weak, we are superior in fighting skills, piloting, and
infiltration. Sai will not be a problem."

"I hope you're right Wufei, for your sakes that
is."*
