The Genesis Of Cyberspace
Starter A/N: Hello everyone, this is Alisi Thorndyke here with another Cyberchase fic for you all to, hopefully enjoy! This story picks up where The Lost Dimension left off. If you want to understand this story, I would recommend that you read The Lost Dimension before reading this so you can better understand what is going on in this fic. It's a recommendation, but isn't required. If you've read The Lost Dimension, then you're set. The pairings are as usual: Matt/Inez and Jackie/Slider. The Matt/Inez pairing will be very evident in this story just like the last. Ok, now that we have all of that out of the way, on with the legal stuff, summary and then the story!
Disclaimer: We all know the deal here, so I'm not saying anything. I'm perfectly legal and have the evidence to prove it. lol
Summary: The future of Cyberspace will be plunged into darkness unless Hacker can be stopped from awakening an evil dark force on Sector. Will the cybersquad of the present and future be able to stop him or will the future of Cyberspace be doomed?
Chapter 1: Sector's Venom
Three years into the future
The emerald green glow of cyberspace is covered with dark clouds and raging lighting from a bundle of electric storms that are occupying the area along with a spreading dark force that has corrupted a good percent of cyberspace. The dark force is continuing to spread as the cyber coupe, being driven by Matt, is flying through the chaos that has been unleashed upon the peaceful cyber land.
The dark force that is continuing to spread now reaches the cybersite Sensible Flats, completely corrupting it.
"Can't this thing go any faster?" Jackie panics, continuing to watch as the dark force spreads.
"I'm going as fast as I can Jax." Matt replies. "I don't want to put us in more danger than we're already in."
"The dark force is spreading fast and it's gaining on us!" Jackie continues panicking. "We have to get to control central like now!"
"I know that Jackie." Matt replies, trying to remain calm and concentrate on driving.
"According to the coupe's coordinates, we aren't that far from Control Central." Inez adds in.
The dark force now reaches Radoplois, turning its citizens and the nature of the site pure evil.
"Oh no Slider!" Jackie continues panicking, witnessing the conversion of the site. "Matt, we have to turn around and go back for Slider!"
"Jackie, we can't turn around." Matt says, not making eye contact. "If we turn around now, who knows what will happen to us. I'm sure Slider is just fine."
Continuing to fly through cyberspace and avoiding the lighting strikes from the electric storms, Matt can see control central straight ahead.
"We're almost home free ladies." Matt says. "Control Central is straight ahead. Hang on!"
Slamming his foot on the gas pedal, the coupe picks up speed with the three continuing towards HQ. Now reaching control central, Matt quickly parks the coupe in the bay with all three jumping out and making their way to the main room. Upon entering, the three notices that the main screen Motherboard normally occupies is full of static.
"Motherboard." Jackie says as sadness comes over her. "She fought her hardest until the end. I wish there was something that we could do to bring her back."
"She sacrificed herself just to make sure we were safe." Matt says to Jackie with comfort. "We'll see her again."
"Matt's right Jackie." Inez adds, also comforting Jackie. "She wanted to make sure that our safety came first. She will be back."
The dark force that is continuing to spread now reaches control central and knocks out the power. Matt immediately grabs onto Jackie and Inez.
"This can't be the end can it?" Jackie asks with worry. "Will Hacker finally win and become the ruler of Cyberspace?
"Hacker will never be the ruler of Cyberspace!" Matt replies with anger. "I don't care how much power he has! We're going to bring Motherboard back and overthrow Hacker!"
"I just hope Sam is ok." Inez says. "Hacker is using his site after all for his evil and corrupted uses."
"He's alright Inez." Matt replies calmly. "I'm sure of it."
Dr. Marbles and Digit now emerge from Motherboard's vault room with Dr. Marbles holding an old fashion oil lamp. He takes notice of the three kids in the main room.
"I was so worried about you three making it back safely." Dr. Marbles says, getting the kids attention.
"Doc, is there anything that you can do to bring Motherboard back despite the chaos?" Matt asks.
"I'm afraid not Matt." Dr. Marbles answers, now approaching the three. "I've tried everything to save her, but she was determined to make sure that our safety came first and that her sacrifice wasn't in vain."
A few tears now stream down Jackie's face.
"Poor Motherboard." Inez says with sadness coming over her.
"Now despite the chaos that is currently going on, I do have some good news." Dr. Marbles says with slight cheerfulness. "While desperately searching for a solution to end Hacker's tyrannous reign, I came across a peaceful terrene that Hacker's reign has not yet took place."
"Where is that?" Matt questions.
"It's on a timeline three years earlier than this one." Dr. Marbles answers. "If it can be prevented from taking place on that time line, the ripple effect will erase what is taking place here, thus making Hacker's reign cease to exist."
"That's great news doc." Matt replies with a small smile. "Jackie, Inez, I want you girls to take the coupe and get out of here. I want you two to head to the past right now. Dr. Marbles, Digit and myself will handle things here."
"No way!" Jackie protests. "There is no way we are leaving you three to deal with this all by yourselves."
"I wouldn't know what to do if I lost you." Inez adds in as she places a kiss on her boyfriend's cheek. "I'm not leaving your side."
"I wouldn't be able to live with myself if something happened to you girls." Matt continues arguing. "I want you two to take the coupe and head to the past right now. Us guys can handle this."
The dark force now destroys the satellite that is connected to the bottom of Control Central's main station, completely swallowing it. The hollowing from the dark force makes Matt hold on to the girls tighter.
"This is looking worst and worst by the minute!" Digit panics. "The dark force is destroying everything it touches and control central's defenses are completely down!"
"It's not safe here for you two!" Matt continues arguing with the girls. "I'm demanding you two get to safety now!"
"Not a chance Matt!" Jackie argues back as Inez holds onto Matt tighter. "We're the cybersquad and we don't run when faced with danger! We're all in this together!"
"I don't know why I even bother arguing with you two." Matt sighs in defeat. "I always loose."
"Also on that timeline exists three younger versions of yourselves." Dr. Marbles informs them. "If they can be warned about what is in store for them in the future, they will have a chance to change it. By stopping Hacker there, they can save our time."
"Wait, there is another me out there?" Matt asks in confusion.
Dr. Marbles nods, answering the confused teen's question.
"I'll go to the past." Inez volunteers as she loosens her embrace from Matt and turns to Dr. Marbles.
"Inez, are you nuts?!?" Matt asks, completely outraged. "You can't go alone!"
"Matt, I have to go." Inez replies as she turns to Matt. "If our younger selves aren't warned about what awaits them in the future, they won't have a future to look forward to. I'm going."
The dark force now swallows up the coupe and the bay it's resting in, while also taking a chunk of the main room's wall.
"Well taking the coupe to the past is out." Matt comments.
"Not to worry." Dr. Marbles says. "There is another mode of travel to the past."
Taking a small device out of his pocket, Dr. Marbles presses the button in the middle with a yellow portal appearing in front of them.
"This is a dimensional portal." Dr. Marbles explains. "It will take you directly three years into the past without doing too much damage to the space-time continuum."
"Be careful Inez and you better come back to me unharmed." Matt says as he embraces Inez in a hug.
"You know I will." Inez replies, returning the hug.
Loosening his embrace, Matt catches with Inez's gaze.
"I love you." Matt says.
"I love you too and I promise I will return to you." Inez replies.
"Be careful girl." Jackie says as she embraces Inez in a hug.
"You have my word." Inez says with a smile as she returns the hug.
Matt nods as he places a kiss on Inez's lips. Inez returns the kiss as she now makes her way towards the portal. Reaching it, Inez turns towards Matt and Jackie and waves. Matt and Jackie wave back. Inez turns back to the portal and takes a deep breath. She now enters the portal with it immediately closing behind her.
"At least she'll be safe." Matt says.
A sudden blast now occurs at control central's doors that knocks them off the hinges. Matt, Dr. Marbles, Digit and Jackie huddle close together as they brace themselves for what is to come.
"The same can't be said for us." Jackie comments.
Two tall mechanical black armored androids now enters the room.
"Hacker requests your presence." One of the androids speaks.
"Tell Hacker to forget it!" Matt argues as he places Jackie behind him. "We're not going anywhere!"
The other android takes out his laser gun and points it at the group.
"You don't have an option!" The android with the laser gun speaks. "You will be coming with us!"
A/N: Ok here's the sequel that I promised and I hope you all liked this chapter. This chapter only tells one part of the story where as the rest of the fic will explain everything that lead up to this point and beyond. There will be some space-time concepts used throughout the fic, but I will keep it limited so I don't confuse anyone and so that the fic runs smoothly. If anything is confusing in this chapter, please let me know and I will fix it in the editing. If you're all good, then please review.
Review Please!
