~Gilt-1A. June 7th, 2077. 3:31 PM. One mile from the Main Base.~

The crew walked over a dune to see a gigantic desert city. "Holy crap!" Tony said surprised on how the base looked from far away. It looked like a big city with only one skyscraper. Everything had a desert look to it. "Imagine how many of those androids are in there..." Michelle said. "There must be thousands. Maybe even millions!" Elias said. "We're going to need disguises..." James said. "Why can't we just run in there guns blazing?" Elias asked. "You know exactly why! And if you don't then there are possibly thousands or millions of soldiers in there! The number of soldiers we fought on the moon base years ago was probably only 200, and we had help from Tristan!" James said. "You're right. We're going to need disguises." Elias said.

James handed Tony some binoculars. "So who in there looks like a citizen or a visitor?" James asked. "I see a guy in an old looking cloak." Tony said. "Do we have any cloaks with us?" James asked. "We do. But I think it's back in the ship..." Tony said. "Let's look through the stuff we have to make sure." James said looking at the three cases of stuff they had. "Ok so one case has weapons, the other has weapons also, and the last one has what we're looking for plus masks." James said. "I thought the third one was the third weapons case. Well at least we weirdly have what we need now." Tony said. "Wait when did we even have cases?" Elias asked. "I thought they would be useful, so I brought them." Jtracia said. "Well now we just need to put them on. Should we put the masks on also?" James asked. "Sure why not?" Tony said. "Ok then let's go inside." James said. "Wait what are we going to do to get information on where the Staff and Sword are?" Elias asked. "We can sneak around and eavesdrop on soldier conversations and just hope they're talking about where the Staff and Sword are." James said. "I think it's obvious where the Sword and Staff are..." Michelle said. "Where would that be? And why are you always so close to James?" Tony asked. "The answer to the first question is the obvious skyscraper there, and the second question is obvious." Michelle said. "I guess it might be there, but we need to eavesdrop just to make sure." Tony said. "Ok that's fine." Michelle said. "Ok now that that's settled let's go already." James said.
