Security Breach Duo seem distracted, his attention caught by something to the left of the vid screen. Heero scowled at the com, gifting Duo with a glare that, when the braided Preventer noticed, drew a smile. “Yeah, I love you too. What’s the problem?” Yuy ignored the jovial grin, noting that Maxwell again seemed attentive to whatever he was watching out of the corner of his eye. “We think there is trouble. Certain Ministers at the palace are behaving in an odd manner. I am concerned that there may be a threat to Relena and possibly to Zechs and Stephan.” That caught Duo’s attention and before either of them could speak Wu Fei settled himself before the com’s pickup. “Which Ministers? We need names, Yuy to effectively pull the teeth of these decrepit old men.” Heero scowled. “What’s happening there?” “We have a motorcade parked at the gates and officials demanding we hand over the Crown Prince Stephan immediately.” Duo explained. “Crown Prince … I see. Zechs?” “He’s upstairs with Stephan. Une has been notified and we need to know everyone involved in this as soon as possible.” Wu Fei returned. “How is He taking it?” “Better than I would be if someone wanted to take my kid from me.” Duo growled. “He’s not in the best of shape at the moment and this is not going to help. Achoo!" Wu Fei scowled as he noted a small red light blink into existence on the consol beside Duo a moment before Duo stiffened. Heero caught their tension and growled as his own security monitor illuminated, betraying a communication’s breach. Their communication lines were monitored. “The man can not abide artificial sweeteners.” Wu Fei commented, eyes on the red light. “Gets his temper boiling.” “Relena has a dislike for it too.” Heero growled. “Have to search the kitchen cupboards and sort out the sweeteners.” Duo shrugged broadening shoulders. “Not even Helen likes it.” “I’m wanted. Call you tonight.” Heero nodded and closed down the line. //Now how do I get Zechs and the kid out of the estate and out of Sanc? It has to be arranged by nightfall.// ————————————————————- “Master Chang. Might I have a word?” Wu Fei glanced up from the screen. Pagan stood in the doorway and he was scowling, heavy brows pulled down as he watched the screens and the scene at the gates. “Something wrong?” Pagan met the obsidian eyes. “This is a very old estate, hiding many secrets. I believe that you need to ask the Master of the house about some of those secrets.” With a faint bow to the startled Preventer he looked to Duo. “It is unfortunate that I find it necessary to return to the palace at this time. I shall return in a few hours to continue my duties. “ Duo and Wu Fei exchanged confused looks as the old man turned to go. “Pagan.” “Yes, Master Maxwell?” “Are you alright?” “Merely too much artificial sweetener in my tea, Young Sir. Nothing I can not contend with.” End |
