Megaman Evolutions
Chapter 1: Greetings
"Good morning class," Ms Mari cooed as she entered the room, closing the door behind her as the students of classroom 10A scrambled to their seats.
"I'm pleased to announce that we have a new student to join our class. Everyone lets hear a warm welcome for Vodka Muskiavik," Ms Mari announced joyfully as she opened the door to reveal a teenage girl of 5'5 with black hair, blue eyes dressed in blue jeans, navy sneakers, blue T-shirt and a cotton jacket with an emblem of a blue sword printed on the right side of the torso.
"Greetings. I am pleased to be part of your learning unit," Vodka said dully as she slowly entered the room and closed the door behind her.
Suddenly there was a loud bang and the door shook then about three seconds later another sound could be heard; it sounded like someone had dropped a sack of potatoes on the ground. Ms Mari pushed her chair back and rushed to the door, as every pair of eyes in the room followed her apart from Vodka, who was still staring at the door handle as Ms Mari opened the door to reveal another teen, but this one was sitting in a heap on the floor rubbing his forehead; this teenager was a boy of 5'8 with messy brunette hair held in place with a blue head band with a decretive unique red and black logo in its centre, he also had brown eyes and was dressed in black running trousers, orange and black trainers, a white long sleeved T-shirt with an orange body warmer with black stripes over the top.
"Lan!" Ms Mari exclaimed as she helped him up "Are you alright? Do you need to see the nurse?"
Lan shook his head softly, moaning slightly "No thank you Miss Mari." The orange clad teen said as made his way to his seat, glowing a soft shade of red as he was greeted by soft concealed laughter and giggles Great first I'm late then I get shown up what's next?
"Settle down class." Ms Mari ordered as she closed the door and sat at her desk with Vodka in front as soon as Lan sat down Ms Mari continued "Vodka. Why don't you tell us a little about yourself?"
The girl turned to Ms Mari and met her eyes with an ice cold stare, "What purpose would that serve?"
"Umm…err…" Ms Mari struggled with her words as she blushed a little "It'll give us an idea of who you are and what you're like"
Lan fiddled with his computer until a window popped up reading Please log in net navi for verification. Lan pulled out a blue rectangular device with smoothed sides from a holster on his belt this little machine has an LCD screen in the middle of the gadget, some controls including a D-pad on the left hand side and a logo that matched his headband on the right hand side.
This gadget is universally known as the latest and last model of the PET known as the Progress PET or PET for short. The PET is capable of storing an AI program known as a net navi. Net navis are basically digital humans, they have their own feelings, they talk and like humans they are all different. Also net navis are fully compatible with all types of machines from model Airplanes to super computers. Basically as long as a machine has an infrared jack in port then a net navi can enter the system.
Lan held his PET in front of him and pressed the emblem to power it on. The LCD screen blinked on almost immediately to display a green background with codes passing through the background at the top. A small moaning sound could be heard as a small blue hand grasped the bottom of the window. The hand pulled up to reveal a shoulder then a body then a head, finally it became a miniature human dressed in what appeared to be a blue jumpsuit decorated with a single white stripe running down either side of the suit it also had gold shoulder pads that stretched down to the mid-forearm, blue gloves that reached a little up the wrist, an emblem on the chest that matched the PET and Lan's headband and a blue helmet with two stripes that came down from the top in an diagonal fashion also the helmet seemed to have a little nose guard that only stretched down to meet the top of the nose also the helmet had what appeared to be gold ear guards with an emblem printed on the centre of them. Opposite the nose were two green eyes that seemed deprived of sleep and slightly bloodshot. Down from the nose was a tight mouth that seem to wobble from time to time.
Lan smiled gently as he recalled the night before "Out late were we Megaman?" the brunette said sarcastically as the blue net navi's head disappeared and the sound of retching taken its place. Lan diverted his eyes until the sound stopped and the head reappeared "Sorry that I didn't wake you this morning Lan." Megaman said with a blend of sympathy, regret and shame in his voice as he discreetly wiped his mouth with his glove.
"Don't worry about it." Lan reassured the little blue man as a voice boomed through the room "LAN!" it was Ms Mari, and she didn't sound too happy "Would you kindly pay attention please?" Lan drooped his head in embarrassment as he place the PET in a holder under the monitor of his computer as a new window appeared on its screen reading Megaman Logging in.
Vodka sighed and continued "Well as I was saying my name is Vodka Muskiavik. I moved here from Electopia because of my Dad's work; He's a business advisor for IPC and my Mom is a lawyer." An echo of approvement swept through the room until Ms Mari signalled for quiet.
"My parents are both from Sharo and I was born in Netopia." Vodka finished. A soft round of applause swept through the room briefly until Ms Mari spoke "What do you like to do in your spare time?" Ms Mari asked casually as Vodka's features compiled a look of confusion "Like to do?" she echoed Ms Mari's words "I eat, sleep and come to school."
Ms Mari smiled in confusion at the response, sweat-dropping slightly as a soft mumbling coursed through the class "Umm…Please take your seat next to Dingo and Jasmine."
"Dingo and Jasmine?" Vodka repeated dully as she scanned the room her eyes locked onto a boy and a girl that were waving. Vodka slowly made her way over and sat in between them in the empty seat.
Ms Mari got up and made her way to the interactive board and started a program "Right class today we are learning about Super Viruses."
That's all that Vodka heard because she was busy studying her new classmates.
She looked to the left and looked at the one that Ms Mari called Dingo. He wore a black hoodie that was decorated with an Indian styled scarf with feathers running down the sides of his arms and black shorts with the right pocket decorated with three red feathers, blue trainers he also wore a yellow headband with green diamonds on it.
Vodka looked forward and pretended she was listening to the lesson going on by nodding gently every now and again. The black haired teen turned off her monitor so she could see the girl that she was sharing the combined desk with, without looking weird Jasmine I think the teacher called her. The reflection shown a girl about Vodka's own age Jasmine had white powder all over her face, apart from her cheeks, which had blush on them. The blush brought out the dark purple from her eyes nicely. She had longish black hair that was tied at either side of her head over her ears in a cylinder shape, kind of like a Christmas cracker with a flower on the right hand side of it. Jasmine wore a white one-piece dress with orange trim around the sleeves and knee area of the dress and down the collar and black shoes.
Vodka turned on her monitor and once again pretended to be paying attention. "Even though a Mettaur virus looks cute it is not friendly." Vodka heard Ms Mari say as she cupped her head in her hands I wonder how long these lessons last.
Meanwhile inside the classrooms' computer system the net navis of the students in the class gathered together. Some formed groups, while some stood alone surrounded by popup windows.
A familiar blue net navi wondered around with a hand pressed firmly against his head as he staggered towards a desk with an un-customized female pink net navi sitting behind it "Good morning Megaman," The pink navi greeted cheerfully "Have you got Lan's homework?"
Megaman grumbled as he produced a file out of nowhere and handed it over.
"Hey Mega!" A familiar voice shouted his name as the blue navi turned around see another pink female net navi bound over to him. This one wore a pink and black jumpsuit with yellow cuffs separating her gloves and boots from her suit this navi also had an emblem that looked like a red circle with the top piece cut out. She also wore a helmet but this one looked roomier then the one that Megaman wore and it also had a headband that seemed to float around her head, but was in fact attached to two circles on the front of the helmet with triangles on them "Ouch you look terrible." The pink navi commented as she taken his hand into hers "How do you feel?"
Megaman swayed a little at the phrase then tightened his grip around her hand a little "Better…although my memory data seems corrupted. I can't remember a thing from last night" The blue navi admitted as he fell backwards on his butt, taking the pink navi down with him.
"Can't you two get a room?" A new male voice interrupted as the two looked at the newcomer.
"Tamahawkman!" The pink navi exclaimed as she released herself from the blue navi's grip and stood up by herself, leaving Megaman to lie on his back.
"Roll," The Native American themed navi nodded with a smile at the pink navi as he spoke.
"Ah em!" A loud but subtle cough interrupted from Tamahawkman's side "Didn't forget about lil'ol me did you?" The female medic themed navi spoke up as she wrapped her arm around Tamahawkman's normal arm.
"Medi…not at all." Roll said sheepishly,"So are you two still together?"
"Yup." Tamahawkman cut in happily "Two years last week," He cheerfully announced. Medi looked at Megaman lying on his back as she tutted un-approvingly "Still feeling the effects from his 18th birthday party?"
"Yeah." Roll admitted as she looked at the blue navi on the ground "We don't age but Gutsman insisted that his programming is 18 years old."
"Aww. I'll help him out," Medi cooed as she put her index finger and forefinger to her mouth and kissed them, "Healing touch!" she announced as she put her glowing fingers to Megaman's head.
Megaman slowly opened his eyes as Medi backed off. He felt his head as he stood up. "Glad you're awake." Tamahawkman said sarcastically "You were just telling me that you love me."
Megaman stared at him wide eyed in disbelief "I-I-I" the blue navi stuttered as the three net navis burst out laughing. Megaman looked at his friends and laughed sheepishly.
"Oh man." Tamahawkman managed to spit out in between laughs and slapping Medi on the back "You actually believed me. Sorry Megaman. But you're just too easy." After two minutes of continuous back slapping, laughing and rolling around the three net navis got up and chatted for a while until they were interrupted by their operators that class was over and it was time for recess.
"Well I better get back to Dingo." Tamahawk added as he kissed Medi's hand as the words Tamahawkman Logging Out appeared in front of the medic themed navi "I better get back to Jasmine." Medi Logging Out.
"We better get back to Lan and Maylu." Megaman suggested as he watched Roll log out, he followed shortly after her.
Moments later the classroom cleared of all its students, minus Vodka. The black haired teen sat there staring silently ahead. "Vodka? It's recess you know." Ms Mari said calmly as she collected her pink handbag and headed towards the door.
"Recess? There is no logical use for recess, it is an inferior waste of time." Vodka countered in her dull monotone, still staring ahead.
"Well I have to lock up. So I need this room emptied," Ms Mari explained, "If I get someone to show you around would you be ok with that?" The teacher offered as she held the door open. Vodka sighed softly as she got up and walked through the doorway into the corridor.
Ms Mari walked down the empty hallway with Vodka in tow until they came across a room with an unusual amount of light flashing every now-and-again through the doors miniature window. The two women stopped and looked in to witness Lan and a red haired girl of about 5'7. Her hair reached down to her back but was restrained by a green and yellow bow she wore a blue long sleeved T-shirt, a long pink mini-skirt that reached just above the knee, a charm bracelet with an icon of a pink circle with a red chunk cut from the top. The two teenagers were netbattling using a holotable "Lan Hikari! Maylu Sakurai! Netbattling is forbidden on school grounds!" Ms Mari bellowed as she thrown the door open. The two teens jumped out of their skins in shock, as did their navis "Ah Ms Mari," the red haired girl began, "we were just…ermm…checking for viruses?"
Ms Mari grinned cunningly as a plan hatched in her head as she slowly said "Well Maylu you can check with a partner," Ms Mari then moved the black haired girl in front of her, "Meet Vodka."
"Greetings fellow student." Vodka said in her usual dull tone as she gave a half-wave.
Maylu looked to Lan for support, only to realise that he was no longer standing there, but he had already logged Megaman out and ran through the door. "LAN!" Maylu exclaimed as Ms Mari strolled out of the door as she called over her shoulder "Have fun."
Maylu just stood there speechless with one hand half in the air, in a failed attempt to refuse the responsibilities of being the new girl's nanny. The red head sighed lightly as she looked at Vodka and smiled "Hi, I'm Maylu. You're the new girl…Vodka, right?"
Vodka looked up from the girl's black trainers and up at her face "Affirmative."
"I'll show around if you'd like?" Maylu offered as they made their way to the door, a whistle made Maylu turn around to see her pink navi still in the holotable system "Sorry Roll," Maylu apologised to her navi as she quickly logged her out and dashed out the door to meet Vodka.
By the final bell Vodka knew all the school inside out. "Thank you very much Maylu," Vodka said as she scanned the area they were stood in, "But why are we out here next to the water fountain?" Vodka asked casually as she dipped her finger in the fountain, making ripples on the surface of the water.
"We are waiting for my friends." Maylu answered as she waved to a group of people that were walking towards the two girls "Hey Maylu!" Lan shouted as he caught sight of Vodka "Hi."
Vodka nodded and looked behind him "Who are they?"
Lan turned and pointed to a boy smaller than he was by just a little bit, with short brown spiky hair, dark blue eyes and a few spots on his right check. He wore blue jeans, blue running shoes and a navy T-shirt with an icon of a icicle on it and some text underneath it that read Ice-cold baby "That's Tory," Lan continued as Tory waved, "Yo."
Lan pointed to a blonde haired girl standing next to him "That's Yai." The girl twirled and let her long one-piece red and white dress catch the breeze "Hello."
"And you know Jasmine and Dingo already, right?"
"Briefly," Vodka admitted as she looked at the sky, "Looks like rain."
The rest of the gang looked up "Looks that way," Dingo chimed in as everyone's attention was brought back down to the ground by a honking of a horn from a pink Limousine. "Well here's our ride," Yai cut in as all the gang climbed into the Limo, leaving Vodka on the sidewalk "Want a ride home?" Yai offered as she held the door open. Vodka shook her head, "No thank you. I'll walk."
Yai shrugged and closed the door as the Limousine pulled away, just as the first droplets of rain hit the ground.
"She's a strange one alright," Yai said as she fastened her seatbelt, everyone else did the same.
"Yeah. But she's cute," Tory countered as he looked through the window behind them to see Vodka walk in the opposite direction.
"So…" Lan began, "Internet City at six?"
"Ok." The rest of the teens answered in unison as they pulled up outside a block of high-class flats.
"We're home," Tory sighed as they walked through reception and took the elevator to the eight floor. Lan and Tory raced down the hall and eventually stopping outside of rooms 859 and 860, taking out their PETs and aiming them at the jack-in sensor on the side of the door.
"Jack in, Megaman! Power Up!" Lan called out.
"Jack in, Iceman! Power Up!" Tory called out.
Megaman and Iceman were deposited in the system and typed in a security panel each, "Done." Both of the navis said together as the door opened, allowing the boys entrance to the apartment. "Wait up guys!" Dingo shouted as he thrown himself over the threshold, breathing heavily "Don't you dare think about locking me out again."
Lan and Tory rolled their eyes in disbelief "That was a year ago," Tory reminded Dingo. The hoodie wearing teen just shrugged as he picked himself up off the ground and wandered inside followed by Tory. Lan waited there for a few more minutes and was joined by Maylu, Jasmine and Yai had managed to get the door open and gone in.
"I'll…meet you in Internet City then?" Maylu said, blushing. Lan smiled and nodded as he went inside and locked the door, leaving Maylu outside with her thoughts If only I could say it to his face. She sighed and went inside her own apartment to be greeted by Jasmine as she locked the door.
The gloom surrounding the dark figure stayed constant, apart from the eerie glow of the huge TV, which seems to float in the dark. Patterns flashed on the screen as a deep voice growled calling out to the figure from its powerful speakers," Agent X. The time has come, strike Internet City at its core strip it of its Achieves."
The figure nodded and replied firmly in a cold voice, "It shall be done Master."

notes: Well that's what I did in my spare time on my hols. I would
gladly appreciate any feedback that you could give me. Also...I'm a
little...well I guess the word would be ignorant of American culture
and Japanese culture, but I do try e.g. 10th grade would mean you're
16 right?
Anyway thank you for reading and depending on what sort
of errors I have made and feedback I get chapter two may not be
posted. And I'm trying to style it like an anime incase you are
wondering.
