It was a rainy day in the RED base. Nothing to do, nobody to fight. Echo was standing outside, enjoying the rain. Medic came outside, to check on her, getting soaked in the process. "Why are you out here?", he asked. "I wanted to enjoy the rain. It feels nice." He took her hand and brought her in for a kiss. She melted into the kiss, wrapping her arms around his neck. He pulled her closer, running his hands through her wet hair. They let go for air, and decided to go back inside. They both dried off, and changed their clothes in separate rooms. Echo just looked outside at the storm, but something caught her eye. A blue light was starting to shine through the clouds, and she could see the tip of something piercing the clouds. Then a noise shook the entire base. (Just imagine the sounds of the tripods from "War of the Worlds")
She would know that sound anywhere. Her eyes widened and she let out a strangled gasp. "Oh my God. They found me", she said, full of fear. She looked at the watch of her wrist. She took it off and stuck it in her pocket. The emergency alarm went off. "INTRUDER ALERT!" She ran out of her room. The rest of the mercs were caught off guard and ran in all directions, looking for the intruder. She knew who it was. " GUYYYYYYYYYYS!", she yelled, getting their attention. "I know who the intruder is." Just as she said that, a man wearing high-tech armor bursted through the door, holding a laser rifle. Medic stepped in front of Echo, raising his Ubersaw. Echo pushed him away. "Port que voce esta aqui? Este luger nao e controlado pelo imperio.", she told the man in Portuguese. "Isabelle Cardinal, você está preso por furto, e juntando-se a rebelião, portanto, desobedecendo o Império Raven.", the man said. "Can ya speak English, please?", Scout asked irritability. "Scout!", Echo said. The man cleared his throat and spoke again. "Isabelle Cardinal, you are under arrest for grand larceny, and joining the rebellion, therefore disobeying the Raven Empire. Now drop your weapons! If you do not comply, I will be forced to fire." Echo turned around and warned them. The mercs obeyed, dropping their weapons. "This is F1287, I have secured the target and the suspects." "Roger that F1287. Bring them on the ship for interrogation." "Okay. Everyone move out single file, and no funny business." They complied, with Echo being in front. They were moved out of the base and onto a black airship. They were seated in a chamber with seats along the wall. Another guard with a female voice came in. "You will be called down one by one for interrogation." She exited the chamber, leaving confused mercenaries. "Who is Isabelle?", Medic asked Echo. "It's...my real name. Isabelle Echo Cardinal. I couldn't tell you because it would put you all in danger. The truth is that I'm a renegade. The watch I wear was stolen by me. It gives me the ability to travel through time. My dad told me to leave so I wouldn't be found, but I was found, and that pretty much explains why were sitting here right now." "So, you're basically on the lamb?", Scout pointed out. Echo nodded. Spy was called down for interrogation, then Sniper and Medic and the rest. "Uh, guys? You might wanna hold on to something. We're about to time jump." The mercs obeyed, grabbing on to the handles tightly as the ship zoomed through a blue tunnel. "Where are we going?", Scout asked. "My home", Echo answered.
