Jail Time

Chapter 2 - Prisoners

Duo leaned back in his chair. This was the best job he had ever had. All he had to do was watch the monitors, which was just like TV. The only non-relaxing thing was Wufei. He was still mad because Duo had tricked him into a pie-eating contest. The prize for Wufei had been no Duo for a month, and Duo's prize had been Wufei would help him get revenge on Heero and Trowa for the times they'd thrown him in jail. Just then the alarm went off. Wufei looked to Duo for a cue. Duo calmly stood up and looked at the monitors. He saw on the upper right screen a large explosion. This soothed Duo's fear that the alarm went off, not because Wufei's and his cover had been blown, but because someone was trying to break in. He motioned for Wufei and the other officer in the room to follow. Duo pulled his standard issue handgun and moved slowly toward the location of the explosion.

When the smoke cleared, all Duo could see was the end of a jacket running out of sight. Duo put on his top speed and raced after the intruder. He rounded the corner on the maximum-security block to see some blond trying to break in to a cell.

"Hold it right there! Put your hands up! You're surrounded!" shouted Duo as Wufei and several other OZ officers caught up.

The youth turned and Duo struggled to contain his shock. It was Quatre, obviously trying to save Trowa. Duo, not wanting to blow their cover, did the only thing he could: he walked over and arrested Quatre. Quatre calmly allowed Duo to handcuff him not saying a word. Just then Commander Preaosh, the leader of the base, showed up.

"What's going on here, Maxwell?!?" asked Preaosh.

"This is an intruder we caught trying to break out prisoners one-eight-four-six-seven-six and one-eight-four-six-seven-seven sir!" answered Duo.

"Well if this little punk wanted to be with his friends so much, throw him in there with'em," Preaosh commanded.

"Aye sir!"

Duo grabbed Quatre's shoulder, put his gun to Quatre's back, and shoved him toward the door to Trowa and Heero's cell. Then Duo reached in to his pocket and pulled out a control to open the door as Wufei moved in to provide him some cover. Duo was slightly nervous because neither Trowa nor Heero knew he and Wufei were there. The door slid open, and Duo shoved Quatre in. Quatre stumbled forward into Trowa. Trowa looked shocked (and elated) that Quatre was there. Heero on the other hand looked straight at Duo with one of his killing glares. Then Preaosh walked up behind Duo and Wufei.

"So, are you scum having fun? I got orders today to execute you two and I don't think my commander will mind adding you, blondie." He laughed. "I'll get rewarded for killing you Gundam scum. By the way Maxwell, Chang you'll also be rewarded."
