A/N: Hello everyone! I am polito4547, here with an author's note. I originally created this story out of the impulse of making a fun, comedic adventure where Battle Network/NT Manga characters join forces of Trigger in order to begin the decline of the Navi and Machine War. However, with my current situation, I decided to take advantage of the fact that this story hasn't expanded too much, and change it slightly. The focus now will be a much more serious outlook, and thus I took a preemptive 1-up to the story's rating for safety. I still plan to continue with the overall route of the story, just more serious from now on. Also, I wanted to explore a relationship between Lan and MegaMan, since it isn't something that isn't very popular. Alongside this, I'm changing Hub's background of Lan's brother to an old friend of his that was hit with HBD, that on his parent's request he be put into a navi's body who then was trusted onto Lan. With new ideas swimming in my head, I might introduce more characters, so if everything goes as planned, then this should be my grandest of stories as of 2018. Enjoy!
Chapter 1
I sat there with one leg stretched out the other folded up so my knee touched my cheek. A loud explosion could be heard from inside the shelter making everyone gasp for a moment before returning to their everyday talk about what was popular and what wasn't. It wasn't out of the ordinary that these explosions would occur every now and then, in fact it was quite the opposite as we would be lucky if only one was heard a day instead of ever other ten minutes. I arrived to a nearby underground city, and was currently resting before continuing my journey across this godforsaken land we consider to be our planet. Outside there are nothing but war being fought outside between humans and the recently dubbed reploids. It became a winner takes all battle, but what will they take if they continue to destroy the earth if they continue? I decided to stop pondering about this as I waited for my friends to return with whatever they could buy with the money we've obtained so far. "Hey Lan," I heard a cheery female voice snap me out of my thoughts I looked up to see that she has bought some food for the journey. From what I've known, humans, and reploids had always lived in harmony with each other, however, with the introduction of net navis, essentially avatars that are able to interact with computers of any kind, there have been massive outbreaks in Robotic Masters causing trouble, as well as their navi counter parts. I heard MegaMan call me from my PET, "Hey Lan, there seems to be a problem with the tram system, plug me into the system I'll check it out!" I nodded and had him plug in alongside Maylu and her netnavi Roll. They made the 'Out of Order' signs change to delayed so we waited for the tram to arrive. "Hey Lan, what were you able to find with battle chips?" Maylu asked as we waited our train to the next town to arrive. I took out a small pack I composed for her, "Mostly buster chips and sword chips, but I was able to find a few virus chips for Roll." She took them and began to organize them to her preference while I continued to look up to the sky through the skylight. It was hard to find good battle chips in this side of the country is rather more agriculturally based, so even reploids are rare. Our train finally arrived and we got on simply taking seat next to a window, while Maylu sat next to me. I felt her hold my hand, "I know it must be hard knowing that your brother recently died before coming with us, even I'm sad..." It was hard to forget about that especially as it happened about five days ago and it was just yesterday that my father gave me a new customized navi before we were to run for the hills. We come from a small town called ACDC and my father is the lead scientist for the navis, while my grandfather was the lead scientist for the Robot Masters that roam the world. Although most of the ones he's built, somehow they are being tampered with and turned against the ones who created them. "It's fine Maylu..." I was cut off by the train hitting hard on the brakes and noticed that something was falling from the sky and few seconds later hit the ground with great force. We got out to go investigate ready to battle whoever it was only to hear someone else yell, "Don't hurt him!" from behind on a large ship. "Maylu pinch me, I think I'm dreaming because physics state that nothing that large can be held up by three tiny propellers." I was pinched and I felt the pain so I knew that I was awake, either way I walked up to the robot that was on the floor now scratching the back of his head. "Are you okay?" I asked offering a hand to the young male who seemed to be the same age as us. He tried to get up but his leg was damaged not allowing him to get up. I looked up to see the same data shield that was up ever since the Reploids attacked the Netopian SciLabs and had a Dimensional Bomb explode and cover the whole world, successfully infusing the world with the internet. It allowed for the internet to come to us and us have our navis appear next to us, as well as doing something different.
"Lan, Maylu, I trust both of you to use these chips to their maximum potential. You've been tested and these chips are optimized for both Roll and MegaMan. Both of you should be able to CrossFuse in this world in order to protect yourselves. Keep in mind, there is a time limit as to how long you guys can hold it which at this point is around twenty minutes. Your navis will also tire after this leaving them unable to materialize in the real world. I need you to keep this in mind. Lan you are my son, and Maylu you are like a daughter to me. Also try to keep Lan out of trouble..." Okay, okay that is enough flashback! This is exactly what happened, a few Mettools appeared and I called MegaMan to the battlefield as I told Maylu to become CF Roll and take the robot to the girl up there. I gave MegaMan two cyber swords and made shredded paper of the small batch of viruses. I told the tram to continue onwards as I decided to go with Maylu. "Synchro Chip! Slot in and download!" I was enveloped in a large white having Mega Man's battle armor replace my current clothes. Eventually we became one and I made the climb up and sure enough more viruses appeared. "Mega Buster!" I took down three swords flying straight for. "Caw! Caw!" What kind of attack... I looked up and I was bombarded by a bird, just great. I used a long sword and took out a few more viruses eventually making it to the top and removing the CF MegaMan form and wandered about the ship looking for the entrance. "In here Lan!" Maylu called as she opened the door behind me urging me to get in. I found the ship to be rather cramped almost like the insides of a submarines from the movies. I sat next to Maylu when suddenly the girl in red appeared. "Sorry about earlier, the name's Roll, Roll Caskett just like the hat!" Maylu and I groan, "What?" Maylu took out her PET, "What's up Maylu?" Maylu turned her PET to the girl, "Roll, meet Roll" Roll seemed ecstatic about meeting someone with the same name as her, and what followed next was a chance in a million. "Hey Roll!" called the blue metallic boy causing for both the netnavi to turn to him. He merely sweatdropped and turned to the girl with the red uniform, "The repair is holding up I should be able to use it until we find better parts." He turned to us, "The name's Mega Man..." causing us to groan once again, this time me taking out my PET , "Mega Man meet your twin..." He too was ecstatic, I feel as if this relationship will be one sided, our net navis with their twins and us by ourselves.
