AN: Yeah, more chapters!! I'll finish this soon, hopefully ^^.

Chapter Thirteen

"...Andy?"

Andy searched through his memory bank as he stared back at Gally. He blinked a couple of times as he tried to voice out words.

"G...Gal...Gally?"

Gally breathed out a sigh of relief. "Andy, you're okay! I thought you were going to stay like that forever..."

Andy tried to sit up, testing out his limbs. He managed to sit upright despite Gally's protesting hands. He looked at her, a black lock of hair staying in front of his eyes.

"How long have I been asleep?" he asked in a hoarse voice.

"Eh? Anno...I think a day or so," she replied. "But are you sure you should be sitting up like that?"

A day...hmph, I guess I was in worse shape than I thought, he thought, ignoring Gally's question.

"...Andy?"

"I'm fine," he replied, flexing his arm muscles. "Can you help me get these needles off?"

"Um...sure," Gally replied as she began to pull off the tubes hoooked on his right arm.

"Where's my sister?" he asked her while taking off the needles on his other arm with his teeth. Geez, what do they think I am, a robot or something?

"She's with Quatre-san," she answered, eyeing the way how Andy yanked off the needles. "Doesn't that hurt?"

"Huh? What does?" Andy asked as he made eye contact with her again.

Gally stared into his eyes for a second before she continued to gently pry off the needles, fighting back down a blush. "Taking off those needles like that. Doesn't it hurt?"

"Nah, I'm used to it," he replied. "Naze?"

"Your uncle Heero told us what's going on," she said softly. "I mean, with you and Kitsune-chan and all."

"Hn, so he finally reveals himself," he murmured.

"You're not surprised?"

"Ie, not at all. It's about time Heero told the others. He's been afraid to tell you guys about it."

"Why?"

"The Red Hawks have been hunting us down since the day he rescued us. They're a strong underground organization. If anyone got dragged into it, they can't get out."

"But why are they after you and Relena?"

"I'm not sure about the Prime Minister, but..." once again he stared at her in the eye, "Kitsune-chan and I have something that's different from all the other kids who escaped from Project AES."

<Red Hawks' HQ>

"General Reinhardt," a soldier called to his superior.

Reinhardt glanced back from the window. "What is it?"

"Sir, someone's hacking the computer's databse," the soldier replied.

"Must be Yuy," he muttered to himself. "Find his location."

"Hai!"

"Kaitou," Reinhardt called out.

A young man appeared in the shadows next to him. "Hai?"

"Go and say 'hello' to our new guest, will you?"

Kaitou's Prussian blue eyes gleamed with delight. "Of course."

Heero glanced up at the security monitors to see a pack of soldiers running through one of the hallways.

"Che," he cursed to himself and quickly took out the disk he used to record. He got what he needed.

He checked the security screens again. So they think they can surround me? He when towards the door and took out his gun, shoooting at the control lock. Once it jammed into place, he took a chair to stand on top on, punching his way at the gate of an air duct. The small gate opened without resistance and he climbed into the duct. He closed the gate just as the guards were banging against the door, smirking to himself. Too easy.

The air duct was a tight squeeze to get into, but Heero was still able to move around. It just depended onthe direction he was facing. He checked the miniature map on his watch, figuring out wher the closest exit was. He frowned, This place has changed a lot more than I thought. Sliding forward through the duct's mazes, Heero made his way to the engine room.

<Preventers' base ~ control room>

"NANI?" Duo exclaimed. "Heero's gone?!?"

"It appears so," Lady Une said. "One of our recon vans are gone as well as all the equipment inside. That's one hundred plastic bombs."

"Che, so much for a reunion," he muttered.

"He's probablky trying to get something that we don't know," Wufei guessed. "But why would he need all those explosives?"

"As an escape route if the Red Hawks ever find him, which they probably did, knowing how good they are at observation," Andy answered from the doorway.

Everyone turned around, surprised.

"Andy!" Sally exclaimed. "I thought you were still unconscious."

Andy scratched the back of his head, smiling sheepishly. "Well, I WAS. Or sleeping, actually. I was kinda hungry on the way, too, so I think you need to replenish your food supplies in a day or two..."

"Your injuried are already healed? Sally said that it would take you at least a month and a half to recover," Wufei said.

"You act like as if you're perfectly fine," Duo added, astonished.

"Well, to tell you the truth, I'm a bit sore," Andy admitted. "But otherwise, I'm just fine."

Just sore? Duo repeated in his mind.

"Heard that Heero told you guys what's going on," Andy continued, changing the subject. "So...where'd he go this time?"

<Red Hawks' HQ ~ Engine Room>

Heero easily made his way through the air ducts' maze and landed in the engine room. He was still wary, though, since some of the children from Project AES were just as good as he was. His eyes caught the attention of two huge mirror windows, each as wide as ten people.

Funny this didn't come up on the map that oneesan gave me, he thought.

He gently tapped his gun against one of the windows. An echo followed, indicating to him that it was hollow. Curiously, he began to look aroudn for an entrance to the hidden room. In the room that he occupied were two huge generators to maintain electricity of the base and a control panel in the center. Papers were strewn all ove the panel. Some were logs of the generators' activity while others were designes for some new weapons. Heero cautiously walked over to the panel, scanning through their contents. A small tin box was slightly hiding behind a stack of papers caught his eye. He gingerly lifted the box and opened it, surprised to find an ordinary card key inside.

Why is a key in a box? Odd...

He walked over to the mirrors and scanned closely for an opening of any kind. He found one just barely sliced over the exit. It looked like a scratch of some sort at a first glance, but Heero knew that looks could be deceiving. It doesn't look like the key would fit, but...

He slid the key into the slit and the mirrors in front of him faded into the background. Heero stood in utter shock at what was before him. Things that he thought would never exist again: Gundams.

AN: *dun dun dun* It may be a bit cliche, but hm....you just have to wonder. I've always wondered why if the Gundams were destroyed, couldn't somebody make a new one? Well, this is your result. ^^ I'll type up the next chapter soon, so R&R!
