Personal Paranoia Wu Fei closed the door quietly behind him, fully expecting to find a gun, if not two, in his face. He considered himself to be paranoid when it came to his personal security, and his fellow Gundam pilots were equally as paranoid. He was surprised to find Duo absent from the office, having expected him to be working on the programming. Heero was glaring at him from over a computer monitor and the glare faded to a more guarded expression as he relaxed. Wu Fei was frankly surprised not to find a gun pointed at him. “I have a number of selections which should compliment the musical score chosen for the display. It will not take long to determine which best compliments the existing score.” “Fine.” Wu Fei noted the arctic chill in blue eyes and the concentration Heero was directing at the computer, his fingers literally flying over the keys. “What is the problem?” Yuy scowled and grunted, his fingers moving with lightning speed, hitting keys precisely and finally shifted back, hands falling to his lap. Wu Fei noted the long-fingered hands were clenched into fists. “Four hours ago someone hacked into this system and downloaded details of the fireworks display.” All thought of substituting holographic and laser light displays for fireworks vanished from Chang’s mind. He set his pile of CD’s absently on a desk and moved around to join Heero at glaring at the monitor. “We need to determine who and why. We will need to go through the program and note the times most suited to an attempt being made on Milliardo or Relena. An assassination would be best made during the noise of the fireworks show. At best there would be a few minutes of utter confusion to facilitate the perpetrator’s escape.” “I have a trace on the hack running now. It will take a while. We can work on the program while we insert the substitutions, marking the more favourable features of the show to compliment a hit.” Heero glowered at the numbers running endlessly across the screen. “I will need to alert security to this threat, but I want to see what we can uncover first.” Wu Fei nodded, fully agreeing. “Who would be bold enough to attempt an assassination?” “It may not be aimed at Milliardo or Relena. There are enough high-level dignitaries from across the Earth Sphere attending the Christmas celebrations in Sanc this year that there are upwards of a dozen possible targets.” “For the moment I suggest we assume it is one of our Royals and take appropriate measures.” “Agreed.” Wu Fei looked toward the door and then down at Heero. “Where is Maxwell?” Heero ducked his head quickly to the computer screen, hoping Chang did not notice his expression. He did not particularly fancy explaining why he wanted a sprig of Mistletoe. If Chang noticed anything he considered odd about him he would be sure to ask. “Running an errand.” End
