Zeon

Chapter 12 Escape

Zaitan was back laying down on the floor. How could she have done this? She of all people! Why Zagbra? It was the most horrible thing that could have happened. He had to warn the others. So Zaitan picked himself up on his feet and stared around at the room.

The walls were made of grey and silver iron. Could those machines break through them? Was it possible to use them as an escape plan? He had to try. So walking over to them, Zaitan examined the iron doors that seemed to be sealed by a simple handle. Zaitan tucked hard on it but it didn't come lose. So Zaitan placed both feet on the thing and hung on the handle. 

"That won't come lose! It will only come lose with my help." A proud squeacking was audible from behind him.

Zaitan turned, there was however nothing to be seen. Only the wires and cables on the ground. Zaitan made a grab for his bow but there was none over his shoulder. Right they had taken it. 

"I know where your bow is and I can give it to you! But don't attack me with it okay?" 

"Ok, but you don't attack me either! And show yourself!" Zaitan was looking the way from where the voice had come.

Suddenly his bow hovered in the air next to him and was slightly shaking. 

"I can't show myself! I am an Invisblyty! I can only be seen with something on me!" It was the same voice from before. 

"So er, can you open this thing for me?" Zaitan felt a bit uncomfortable with this invisible creature next to him.

The door of the machine sprang open and some clothes hovered out of the machine. The small thing put on those clothes and then jumped happily into the machine. It handed Zaitan a glove.

"Put that on, that way you can control this baby! I love riding in them!" It was so cute with the clothes on, even though thy seemed to hover in mid air. Zaitan smiled at the small thing.

Then he pulled himself into the robot and it shook slightly. "Well then, full steam ahead!" Zaitan stared to walk and the machine walked too. It was a weird feeling to move in a walking machine. The small animal or whatever it was, was enjoying the ride.

"Ready? We will cow break that wall!" Zaitan didn't wait for an answer and fired at the wall, it broke down after two missiles and a path was clear. Sirens started going off and men with small guns came running out of the small camp. Zaitan fired down the first 5 waves of armed forces in a wisp of smoke. Scorched marks were left behind in the ground. More sirens sounded and large vehicles drove out.

"They are too strong for our baby! We need to fly away!" The small animal was shouting over all the noise and tumult.

"Roger that sir!" Zaitan had to laugh at those words and pulled on a leaver. The machine instantly took into the air. Zaitan fired a few more missiles at the base and watched as the thing started to smoke. Then an explosion rattled the air.

"Oops. That was probably their bomb supply!" The animal laughed again.

"What's your name anyway? Mine is Zaitan!"

"Call me baby! I'll call you..." It thought for a moment, "Big Bro!"

Zaitan was laughing until he suddenly remembered something. If they didn't tell the main base it was them, they would most probably get fired down. Quickly he searched for the earpiece and connector. Baby held it out for him, probably guessing at what to do. 

"Hello? This is 554 speaking. We are currently in a undefined enemy vehicle and had a lucky escape behind us. Now requesting landing and a safe one too. Also immediate contact with 1!" Zaitan waited for a reply.

"Request code?" That was the only answer they got.

"%%$" Zaitan answered.

"Welcome to home base. Please move on to landing 882."

They swerved to the left as the landing plane came in sight. With a dull thud the robot landed on the landing plane. Zeonians ran on the area and held the door open for Zaitan. He stepped outside and Baby followed unseen. 

They ran towards Zeon as he strode to them. "You requested immediate contact!"

"We have been betrayed by your own brother!" Zaitan gasped out.

"Well, well, well! Then surely we will have to kill all of you." Came the sneer from behind Zaitan and a cold trickle went over his spine.

I am now planning on writing something where I can put more personal experience into it. So the writing improves. Please let me know if that is better.
