1CHAPTER 1: Surprise! Happy Birthday!
It has been four and a half years since the battle with the cyber-beasts incident. We rejoin everyone's favorite hero and his blue net navi in ACDC park on his 16th birthday...
Lan Hikari was sitting alone in ACDC park. His outfit hadn't changed much in the past four
and a half years. The only difference in his appearance was that he grew to 6 foot even and that
instead of wearing black shorts he wore normal black pants. Asides from that his outfit remained
the same.
Lan sighed as he watched the leaves blow by.
"Its pretty quiet now that all the net terrorists are gone." He said to noone in particular.
"It's not that bad Lan." Replied his blue navi.
"But now I don't have any excuses for not doing my homework!" Lan whined.
"Then maybe you can bring up your failing grades in school." Megaman said teasingly.
Lan unstrapped his P.E.T from his upper right arm and began to shake it up and down quickly.
"Take that back Mega-big mouth!" Lan yelled. He continued to shake Megaman up and down at
a dizzying speed. When Lan was done, Megaman's eyes had swirls in them.
"That'll teach you..." Lan said trailing off. Megaman shock his head back in forth so he could
see clearly again.
"Fine lets see how you do without an alarm clock tomorrow." Megaman said.
"Huh? Wait a sec! Megaman wake me up tomorrow or I'll be late for school!" Lan whined.
"We'll see." The blue navi replied.
Then the two stopped arguing and watched the leaves blow by. Lan's P.E.T. beeped ,shattering
the silence.
"You got email Lan." Megaman said on instinct. He immediately hit himself for saying it. I
gotta stop doing that. He thought.
"Who's it from?" Lan asked lazily.
"It's from... Maylu." Megaman said a little surprised.
"Read it." Lan commanded.
"Fine." Megaman said. "Hey Lan, I wanted to talk to you. Can we meet at your house in about
five minutes please?"
"Wonder what she wants." Lan asked as he got up off the bench.
"I don't know but you should go find out." Megaman said, nagging at him already.
"What's it look like I'm doing?" Lan asked. He started to make his way to his house. He was surprised to see that Maylu was there waiting for him outside his front door.
"Hey Maylu." Lan called as he walked closer. He got her attention quickly with his loud voice.
"Hey Lan." She replied in her care-free voice.
"So what did you want to talk about?" Lan asked.
"Well, ummm." She replied scratching the back of her head.
"And what's: well, ummm, supposed to mean?" He asked teasing his best friend.
"Ummm. Can we go inside and talk?" Maylu asked a little shyly. It was faint but Lan thought he could see a light blush making its way to her face.
"Yeah sure." Lan replied. What has gotten into her, she's never been shy around me before. He thought.
Lan opened the door and motioned for Maylu to go in.
"You first." She said quietly.
"Ok." Lan said shrugging. He walked in and Maylu followed him in. Lan was surprised to see it was pitch black inside his house.
"Who turned out the lights?" Lan asked Maylu. He turned to her but realized that he couldn't see her because she had shut the door behind her.
"Maylu you there?" Lan asked.
No response.
"Maylu?" He asked again
Still no response.
"Ok Maylu joke's over. Come out. He said.
At that instant the lights turned on.
"Surprise! Happy 16th birthday Lan!" Yelled a group of people.
Lan yelled in fear and put his hands in front of his face for protection. Then everything was dead silent.
"Best reaction ever!" Dex yelled from across the room. Lan opened his eyes.
"Hey what's going on here?" Lan asked.
"What's it look like?" Maylu asked from behind him. "It's a surprise birthday for you." She said happily.
"Awsome!" Lan yelled. "Lets P-A-R-T-Y!" Lan yelled.
