Skirmish – Mega Man Star Force

Mega Man had his hands on his knees, facing his opponent on the wave road. Breathing hard, he forced himself up.

"Heh." Gemini Spark. Not the most pleasant EM wave human around. Not because there are two of them, mind you. They're just really powerful. "You ready to give in, Mega Man?" Gemini Spark Black crossed his arms, laughing. White looked cautious, keeping an eye on his foe.

After a moment, Geo Stelar said, "No. Not…" he brushed some sweat away, "…yet."

Black stopped laughing. Gemini Spark White, however, charged ahead, his large metal arm crackling at the end.

Omega-Xis, in place of Mega Man's left hand, dragged Geo to the left. The ElecSword attack missed, barely. "Get your butt in gear, kid! We're not losing to pansies like Gemini."

Black shot his own metal arm off at Mega Man. White turned and shot after Geo again.

"Barrier!" A blue, erm, barrier appeared, surrounding Mega Man. And, having done that, Geo turned tail and ran.

"Kid?!" White's attack just passed Mega Man's right leg, but the Rocket Arm was still hurtling toward him.

"Working on it!" Voom. The rocket brought the barrier down. "Aah!" Geo disappeared, changing his wave frequency.

Gemini Spark White brushed an orange hair out of his face. This was more fun than usual, until now, of course. Running doesn't work well, not here. "You just gonna stand around?" Black shouted, as he raced after Mega Man.

White shook his head as Black changed frequencies to go after Mega Man. Not enough time.

"He's on our tail!"

"I know, Mega! Just gotta—" Wham. Geo hit the wave road face first.

"Haha! Get ready to feel this one, pest!" Gemini Black dove down after Mega Man.

"Geo…" Omega-Xis wasn't worried. He doesn't do that. He was… concerned, maybe.

"I'm out of it." Mega Man laid still.

"What?! Move it, kid! NOW!"

Too late. Black was on top of them, and brought down the ElecSword.

"Aaugh!" Geo cried out and brought his arms up to his face with his eyes shut.

Nothing.

Geo peeked out.

…nothing. He sighed with relief aching in every bone.

And then Mega said, "'You're out of it', huh?"

Geo stiffened. Not good.

"What kind of garbage was that? You see how they were playing with you when you pulled out a BubbleShot?! A BubbleShot! Leo, Pegasus, and Dragon, what the heck were you doing?!"

"Let's just pulse out, for now."

"Kid, I'm not gonna go easy on you for that stunt."

--

In a flash of orange light, Gemini Spark Black disappeared. Gemini Spark White did the same. On the ground, stories below, Pat Sprigs appeared. A voice emerged from his Transer:

Gemini. "What's wrong? Why did we pulse out?"

Pat shrugged. "Other stuff to do."

"…what?"

"You'll see."

"It had better be good, Pat. Or Rey won't be happy."

Pat smiled, vaguely, at that one. "I know. Just see."
