Title: Assailant Part 4 Author: Reboo email: lngwp@oz.zzn.com The comp started to beep besides Lt. Noin's cot waking her up. Grogilly she sat up to answer it. "Ugh, who could it be at this hour of the morning." she yawned and hit the except call button blinking on her screen. Sally's dim looking face appeared on the screen. "Are you on a secure line Noin." she asked patiently. "Yup, as per normal. Now what do you want Sal, it uhm," she hunted for her watch, "it's 3:30 in the morning," she said pointedly. "This better be important, because I want my sleep." She said this last part deliberately slow, as if talking to a child. "Unfortunately it is Fire. The org found your picture, and a very detailed folder on you." "Noin sighed and put her head in her hands. "Where Sal? I thought we'd gotten rid of everything, and a while ago mind you. "Everything we knew about Noin, but Wind kept a file on you, that they hacked into." Sally said trying to keep her face emotionless. Fire sputtered and fell off her cot, which promptly flipped and hit her in the head leaving what would surely be a nasty bruise later on. "Ow, not good. Any chance we can still erase it and have it actually do some good." Sally giggled. "Erase the bump on your head, or the info." Noin glared at her over the screen. "The info, and stop giggling already, its too early in the morning, and that really did hurt." Water tried hard to contain her giggles but couldn't help it. "I'm sorry Noin but this is just too funny, I've never seen you fall before, let alone so comically." Noin glared and went to reach for the disconnect button. Sally sobered quickly. "Alright Noin. I'll cut to the chase." Water gave her the quick download on the info she'd found, and they disconnected with a hasty goodbye. The org would be there soon, and Noin would have to quickly vacate. 'Well I didn't stay here for long. Now did I', she whispered to the martian city below. She turned and started to gather her things, and then realized it was pointless. Almost everyone in this city new her from her three years of terraforming here. She'd need a completely new look, but it would have to come later. New hair, clothes, attitude, everything was what she'd need. 'Hmm, I wonder what I'd look like with long red hair,' she said to herself. 'Well, I guess I'll find out soon.' she added and quickly gathered just the basics she'd be needing, and left her apartment. She'd be meeting Sally in a couple of hours at a safe house on L4. It was risky but staying was even riskier. Besides she couldn't get a new identity all on her own. She'd need help, and Sally was it. Sally was the only person she could trust right now, and she trusted her comrade with her life. 20 minutes later she walked into the city's spaceport, with only her knapsack. The preventers base stored shuttles here in their own little section, she'd simply borrow one, and hope no one noticed for a while. She easily slipped past the gates security guards. Now the problem would be getting a shuttle. The metallic corridors seemed to be empty except for her or she would have heard the footsteps echo off the metal. It all seemed a little to serene for her. Something wasn't right, but she couldn't quite place it until she reached the hanger and then she could smell the remaining teargas. Someone had been here, someone she didn't want to meet just yet. 'I wonder who was here,' she whispered behind the cloth she was covering her mouth and nose. 'At least they didn't kill anyone.' she sighed and walked briskly in to find herself a shuttle out of what would have become her resting place. "So long hair or do you wanna keep your short hair." Sally said walking into the main room of the safehouse. Noin looked up from her resting place on the couch. "Long hair." "Ooh, it sounds like you already have this planned out. Do you have a color picked out as well?" Water added jokingly. Noin nodded her head yes. "Well what color is it, and I'll go grab it outta the stash." "Burnt orange." Noin replied. "Now why would you want burnt orange," Sally asked while looking for it. "I don't know Sal. Oh make sure you get the permanent kind." Sally turned around after grabbing it off the shelf. "Whatever you say Lu, but this color is gonna stay for a while. So you want the extensions or the color done first." "The extensions, duh, now lets get this over with so I can see what I'm gonna look like. K." Noin said. "Mmhmm, lead the way oh mighty one." Sally said bowing. Noin turned and stuck her tounge out at Sally who promptly laughed at her childish behaviour. Sally pointed at Fire who had her hands on her hips and said. " I think we found your new attitude as well. Which leaves us needing only a new wardrobe for you." Disclaimer: Gundam Wing does not belong to me.

And by the way comp stands for computer. Thanks to everyone whos reviewed so far, ecspecially those of you who have emailed me.
