Part 9


Quatre sat in the chair, fidgeting as he watched Duo toss and turn in bed. After the guys left Duo's fever had gotten worse. Quatre had tried to reach out to him to calm him a bit, and it had worked a little, but he still felt so much pain. He'd already tucked in a second blanket around the unconscious boy and managed to wet down a ripped piece of cloth to place over his forehead thanks to a small sink in the corner. He hoped it was helping, but he really couldn't tell.

"Don't worry Duo. Everything is going to be fine. We just need to find a way out of here and get off this planet." Quatre let out a sigh and ran his hand through his short hair. "If only we had a communica-!!"

Quatre's face lit up as he spotted a large machine in the corner that looked to be pretty smashed, but not too bad. Jumping up from his seat he rushed over and brushed away the debree, quite thankful that the number of vines in the room was pretty minimal and they hadn't reached the machine yet.

He eyed the wires and circuitboards. Pulling a pocket sized tool kit from a pocket in his flight suit, which was required to be carried at all times, he fiddled around a bit with the wires. He felt so stupid, how come he hadn't looked around the room for a comm earlier? This was the answer to his prayers and he couldn't keep in a small cry of joy as the machine jumped to life and the small video screen blinked on.

Lady Une stood up and smiled at her now empty desk. The day was over and she'd finally finished enough work to allow herself to go home and get a good night's sleep. Grabbing her jacket from the back of her chair she slipped it on and headed for the door, flicking out the lights.

Closing her office door she was fishing in her pocket for her keys when she heard a trill beeping from her office vid-phone. Sighing softly she opened the door and stepped back into the room. She turned the lights back on and hit the button to answer the call.

The screen flashed on and a very fuzzy picture appeared on screen. A transmission from an older machine? Lady Une blinked in surprise as she recognized the caller, a very tired looking Arabian blond with messy hair and a flight suit which had blood splattered on its shoulder. Her coat slid out of her hand to the floor as she stared in surprise.

"Quatre?"

"Ms. Une. We need someone to come a get us immediately."

"What's happening over there?" She asked, already rushing to her desk to use her back-up comm to make the call. This one was an older version so it took a moment to start up and she could only send text messages, which she did as Quatre explained.

"Well, it seems that there is no human life in this compound but us. It may sound crazy, but this is the honest truth. The entire place is filled with plants, dogs, zombies and worse! Duo is very sick, and the others went to find Noin and Zechs on their own. I don't know how much longer we can last up here."

Lady Une spared him a look of horror as she quickly sent out the SOS. What kind of things had she unknowingly sent those boys up against? As unbelievable as it sounded, she knew that her best agents would NOT joke around about this.

"Calm down Quatre. Look. Sally is in the area, so she can pick you up. Just be outside-"

"That's another thing. We can't go outside. Well, not on the ground anyway."

"Not...on the ground?" Lady Une blinked in confusion but quickly shook it off, realizing she didn't have time to ask for details. "Then get to a roof or an area where Sally would be able to see you. As soon as possible. Trowa should have a flare or two you can send up to signal."

"Right."

"I'll contact Sally then and relay the message. In the meantime...be careful, that's an order. And don't get killed."

"Yes ma'am. Quatre out." The two disconnected. Lady Une immediately dropped into her seat once more and sent Sally another message further explaining the situation and where she would have to pick the boys up. After that was finished she leaned back in her chair and sighed. Silently she sent out a prayer that her team would make it out of that place alive. She had every bit of faith in them but from what little Quatre had told her it seemed there was a large chance they might not make it. Placing her face in her hands she sighed once more.

"You guys are the best qualified." She said mocking her earlier words. "But I'm sure you were NOT trained to take on things like that. Please make it out safely and all in one piece."

Heero, Trowa and Wufei continued to walk down the hall. In all honesty, they had no clue as to where Noin and Zechs would be. The trail had run cold back around the airshaft so they were pretty much walking in the dark. All they could do was explore the hallways and hope they were taking the right ones. They had deduced that Noin and Zechs would have headed for the next available comm room to make their distress call again, but there were none in range. They needed some kind of lead, and fast!

While walking along Wufei happened to glance up, his eyes following the vines which covered the ceiling. He paused in his walk as he noticed an air vent in the ceiling which had vines curling out of it, but they weren't moving, instead they were burnt to a crisp.

"Guys check this out." Wufei called. The other two looked to where the Chinese boy was staring and gasped. Their eyes followed the ceiling farther down the metal passage and discovered burn marks dotting the ceiling and eventually the walls ahead.

"Just like in the comm room Zechs and Noin contacted us from." Trowa said, picking up a vine. The black plant turned into dust in his hand.

"Listen." Heero said as he took a few steps ahead. He could hear dragging footsteps but there was another sound besides that...

Gunshots!

And the high-pitched hissing that came from a blowtorch.

Without another word the three ran towards the noise, hoping against hope that it would be who they were searching for. Had fate actually decided to turn in their favor?

Up ahead, surrounded by slithering plants, stood Zechs and Noin. Noin held a homemade blowtorch made from a fire extinguisher while Zechs had a smaller gun, both trying their best to keep the thick vines at bay. Wufei immediately loaded his gun with flame rounds and aimed.

"Heads up!" He yelled loudly

"Wufei?" Noin looked up in shock. Zechs looked up as well and got the hint. Grabbing Noin around the waist he pulled her past a group of thick vines, hissing softly as one managed to catch him around the leg. Both tumbled to the ground and while Noin used her blowtorch on the one holding Zechs Wufei fired at the source of the vines.

A screech echoed through the hallway and the plant recoiled into the air vent from which it had come, disappearing out of sight. The three Preventers raced over to their comrades, Heero immediately kneeling down to inspect Zechs' leg, but luckily the plant hadn't broken the fabric.

"Are we ever glad to see you," Trowa said with a light smile.

"Same here, who sent you?" Asked Zechs.

"Lady Une."

"Just you three?" Noin asked as she helped Zechs to his feet. "What about Quatre and Duo?"

Heero sighed softly. "Duo was attacked and Quatre is staying with him in one of the bunkrooms. He's not doing too hot."

Noin and Zechs' faces turned very troubled. "Attacked by what?" she asked softly.

"Spiders, and something that faintly resembled a skinned human."

"Shit," Zechs cursed softly. "We have to get back."

Noin nodded. "Yes, now, before Duo changes."

Heero's eyes went wide and he froze. "Changes?" he whispered in a frightened voice.

But no one answered his question, he didn't expect them too. Instead all five raced down the hallway back in the direction where they'd left Quatre and Duo. All the while Heero was cursing at himself, he knew he shouldn't have left Duo alone!
