Emille could see the large building in the distance. He lowered the helitank closer to the ground and found a small docking area near by to a hotel. He landed it down in the docking bay hoping he could maybe blend in with the locals. He wished he had his armour. Ever since being kidnapped aboard Krons ship it's been gone.

He found a small rugged brown coat in the back. He draped it over himself putting up the brow torn hood. He lowered the exit ramp and walked out. The sun was setting over triton. The sky became a fire orange and the streets became to calm down. Lights turned on making the streets dance with all sorts of colours. Emille walked swiftly past everyone not making eye contact or drawing attention to himself. He could feel his back cooling down as the sun wet down. Only a few more blocks before it was time to sneak in.

It was raining hard. The pounding of the rain made it hard to steer Julie thought. The booming thunder and flashing lightning didn't help a lot either she figured. She could manage to make out light through the thick rain but it was still away and she couldn't turn on the helitanks headlights otherwise they'd know someone was coming.

"Only another kilometre or two." She said glancing down at the GPS. Another clap of thunder made the helitank shudder. If someone would be operating the tank gun on top that'd be nice but she could only wish. She lowered the helitak down closer to the ocean. The waves were monstrous and she was careful not to get to low. The helitank was completely dark except for the light that the control panel was giving off. She looked up tapping a switch and turning on the area scanners. A small radar appeared on a screen searching for other vehicles. A bright light shone through the rain piercing the glass of the helitank and filling the cockpit. Julie put an arm over her face. Well the base knew she was coming.

-------------------------------------------

"Incoming helitank sir just over a kilometre away." A young female officer said examining the radar in front of her.

"Send a helitank out to escort it in." The commanding officer replied standing behind her and getting a look at the screen. The girl tapped a few buttons,

"We can't, waves are to high and wind is to strong. I'm surprised that helitank is still in the air." She said hitting a few buttons making a screen appear. The view they had was of a hanger through the eyes of a security camera. There three large and slender aircrafts. They were so smooth on the sides that the cockpit looked like a meta painting then a window, but no one needed to fly it. The vehicles had minds of their own and they were more then capable of any pilot on Triton. "The drones are ready sir, they could escort it back here." She said looking up at the officer. The drones were stronger, faster and all the more better then any aircraft on Triton. With advanced technology Bristons engineers were able to make their own self aware fighter plane. With rocket launchers equipped on the side and fully automated machine gun turrets, advanced tracking systems, advanced flight skills, and a two time thicker armour these drones could outfly anyone and destroy any given target.

"Send them out." He gave the order. With a tap of the keyboards the ships on the camera came to life. The small power engine revved up spitting out orange then quickly turning to blue fire. The cockpit lit up a light green. The drones lifted off the floor a few feet. The female officer punched in a few coordinates and in a second or two all drones were gone.

The first dose had hurt more then any of the other three cage had gotten so far. He felt sick that he couldn't stomach it. He threw up on the floor. It was mostly blood and a few drops of the chemical he had injected. He coughed hoarsely.

"My-My friends......they're co-coming." Cage stuttered without enough strength to lift his head. The doctor laughed at cages bravery.

"you can only wish." the doctor replied leaving cage.
