"Metabee! GIVE BACK THE REMOTE!" screams Ikki Tenrio from the living room.
"Gotta catch me first!" challenges Metabee who runs to the stairs.
Ikki had been watching a Medabot Robattle special on the television until Metabee had ran in and changed the channel to a documentary on beetles. Unfortunately, Metabee still had the remote grasped in his hand. Making it impossible to change back.
"Metabee! GIMME BACK THE REMOTE!" Ikki yells again before running up the stairs himself. Metabee runs up the carpeted stairs until he finally gets to the upper floor. Unfortunately, he is faced with three locked doors and is trapped. Once Ikki was on the third floor he smiled to himself. Though panting slightly.
"Metabee, give back the remote," commands Ikki more calmly now.
"I'm not goin' down without a fight," states Metabee bravely.
"Metabee, you're trapped. You don't have much of a choice," explained Ikki while holding out his hand. "As your Medafighter, I command you to give me back the remote,"
"How many times do I have to tell you? You're not my Medafighter, I'm my own Medabot," he said impatiently.
"Oh yeah? Then why do you live here?" questions Ikki, his smile widening. Metabee on the other hand, was silenced. He froze, however, soon thought of a comeback. It was a stupid comeback, but it was better than nothing.
"W.Well maybe I'm not going to live here anymore!"
"That's ridiculous. Where would you go? Where would you stay? Who would get you hot oil?" pressed Ikki.
'. I can manage on my own. And wherever I would go, it would be a whole lot better than this dump!" said Metabee. He hadn't the slightest answer to any of the questions, but Ikki didn't have to know that.
"That's it Metabee, I demand that you give me some respect! If you don't like it here so much, then maybe you should leave!" said Ikki, not being able to believe what he was saying.
"Well fine! I will!" and at that, Metabee shoved Ikki out the way of the stairs and marched down them. A moment later Ikki could hear the front door being slammed on its hinges and winced as it did. What had he done?
An hour later, Metabee walked throughout the clear night air. Still mumbling insults about Ikki and the way he treated Metabee. Who did Ikki think he was? Giving orders to Metabee like that.
It had been four weeks since Metabee had been living with the Tenrios. Metabee admitted that he did like living there. He got hot meals, a warm blanket and enjoyed playing with their dog, Salty.
The only thing Metabee didn't like was Ikki's attitude towards him. For some reason, Ikki seemed to have gotten the idea that Metabee was supposed to take orders from him. But what he didn't seem to know was that Metabee had a mind of his own. And serves him right for all the things he had done to him. Call me a piece of junk will he? Order me around like some Medabutler will he?
Ten minutes later, Metabee looked up from the ground. He looked one way and then the other. Only then did he realize that he was completely, and absolutely, lost.
"Uh, okay. Now where am I?" he didn't recognize the houses on this street, neither the sign on the pavement. Nor the graffiti on the brick walls. "I don't recognize anything here, what am I supposed to do now?
Metabee panicked.
"If I don't find out where I am, I might end up as a wandering Medabum,"
Suddenly, Metabee could hear a faint voice in the park. At first it was hard to hear, however, soon it grew louder. The voice sounded as if it might belong to a female Medabot. It was beautiful, and yet, so sad. It had a yearning ring to it. Almost as if it drew Metabee towards the sound. Metabee followed it. Maybe he could ask for directions.
However, one word in his thoughts gave him a clue to where he was. 'Park'. Ikki had taken him there before. Metabee didn't care; it was only thanks to that Medabot that he might just get home.
Metabee ran towards the park and searched for the owner of the voice. Finally, once Metabee found the singing Medabot he stopped dead in his tracks.
There, sitting on the wall. Was the most beautiful Medabot that Metabee had ever seen. Her thin, red armor bathed in the moonlight. It was obvious what kind of Medabot she was, a FOX Medabot. Seriously, on her head were two metal, dark red fox-like ears, her armor was coated like a fox as well and her hands like the claws. But the biggest give away was the metal foxtail that swished behind her.
Metabee was surprised to hear the female Medabot singing such a sad song while listening to a pair of headphones.
Metabee took a step closer to the female, however, accidentally crushed a twig during the process. The Medabot immediately stopped singing and looked over her shoulder to see Metabee there. She had deep mauve eyes that traced to where Metabee was standing.
"Oh, uh hey. Don't mind me, just wanted to say thank you," said Metabee nervously.
"What for?" asked the confused female Medabot.
"Well, I ran away from home. But then I wanted to go back. But I didn't know where I was. But when I heard your voice that led me here, I remembered this as a place where my Medafighter took me," explained Metabee, surprised he would say something like that to a complete stranger. The female Medabot kept looking at Metabee.
"A Medafighter, it must be nice to have one," she commented.
"Are you kidding? You get bossed around all day, you get no respect. You even have to get permission just to robattle! Man, I wish I didn't have a Medafighter to start with," said Metabee, remembering why he had run away in the first place.
"Oh no, don't do that," she warned, jumping down from the wall. Only then did Metabee realize that for legs the Medabot had fox legs. Once it reached about two inches above her ankles the color went from normal red to a complete light brown.
"Why not? I'd be a whole lot better off without him," declared Metabee.
"Well then, why are you here wondering how to get back to him?" questioned the Medabot slyly.
"Uh. well," Metabee looked back to her and finally gave up. "Okay, so maybe I wouldn't be better off without him. But what's so good about having one anyway?"
"Well, a Medafighter is not only someone who tells you to do things, they're your friend. Medafighters are Medabots true friends. They tell you that everything will be okay even though they look their worst. And you never seem to be alone or scared with your Medafighter," she explained, her tone saddening.
"Woah, you sound like you just lost your best friend," commented Metabee, walking over to her.
"You could say that, but I'm fine really I am," she said, noticing how close Metabee was to her. "So what's your name stranger?"
"Metabee's the name, Robattling's my game. You?" asked Metabee anxiously; glad he might get her name.
"Foxfire," she answered.
"So what's a fine and foxy Medabot like you, doin' in a park like this and at this time of night?" asked Metabee, hoping to lighten the conversation. His comments made Foxfire turn scarlet though.
"Oh. Just relaxing in the moonlight, I like the peace," she explained, noticing Metabee's confused expression.
"Is that so? And why were you singing such a sad song?" pressed Metabee.
"It's just kind of the mood I'm in really," answered Foxfire. Again her tone saddened.
"Why are you so sad?" this made Foxfire giggle.
"You're a curious one aren't you?" She asked.
"Oh, sorry. I didn't-," Metabee was soon cut off by a voice beyond the park wall and coming from Metabee him self.
"Metabee! Metabee, where are you?!" yelled the voice. Metabee recognized it as Ikki's.
"I'm guessing that's your Medafighter," said Foxfire. She could see that Metabee wasn't too happy about her guess. Her eyes formed in to a smiled again. "Go back to him, he's worried about you. I hope to see you around Metabee," at that, Foxfire jumped onto the park wall and disappeared into the night.
"Hey wait! Come back!" Metabee yelled after Foxfire.
"Metabee! There you are! I was so worried!" Metabee turned to see Ikki running towards him and gave him a big hug. "I'm so sorry for what I said. Can you ever forgive me?"
"Ikki." the words died on his lips, as he finally understood what Foxfire had said about Medafighters. "I'm sorry too Ikki,"
