The guards search around the back of the truck,

Shining their flashlights.



"There's nothing here. Must've been the wind." One of the guards said

Yukari lied on the roof of the truck.

Just barely escaping from the guard's view.




"Go on through!" One of the guards said

The truck lurched forward

They bypassed the fence.




So far everything seemed to be going we-

The searchlight!






The searchlight zoomed over the top of the truck,

Yukari dropped herself back onto the bumper.





Still undetected.



And then the truck ran over a bump.

"Wha!—" she lost her footing.

"Oof!"

She hit the ground, and tumbled to a stop.

The truck was only going some eighteen kilometers an hour, so she was fine.


She picked herself up.

"Another happy landing" she said, quoting the movie she and the boys were watching before she left.



She dusted herself off.

Then...

*brbrbrbrbr

A motor sound.




Another truck was coming!

She flung herself off of the dirt path and into a bush on the side of the road.


The truck's lights shone in the dark.

It zoomed right past her,



Where were all of these trucks going?




She followed the road the truck was taking, using the treeline as cover.

—————————

It was a long walk,

And with all of this equipment she packed, is felt even longer.




It turns out, the fence actually spanned a whole training field next to the tank sheds.

It extended for miles.


Just then,

She walked right over a hill,


A WHOLE building complex,

Hangars upon Hangars of vehicles,



A giant multi-floored building in the center of the complex dominated the others.

That must be the HQ.



There were tanks everywhere.

Someone was directing one of them into a garage.




Her glasses came with a zoom function,

A little knob allowed you to zoom in up to 50x with just the glasses.



As well as the ability to take pictures.

She zoomed in on the tank,




An M26 Pershing.

The M26 was at least as good, if not better, than a Tiger I or Panther.

And there were dozens of these potent machines lined up.

They certainly weren't taking it easy on them.


She had to get a closer look.
