(This might be a length Auther's Note): I could be wrong, but in terms of the game series, there is no evidence that navis actually dream. So, here's a little story about if what happens if Roll dreamed (Yes, I know that they have dreams in the manga series, but I discount that since I work off of the Battle Network Series and info. My whole little speech about this is on my profile if anyone cares to read it.)
Anyway, Percy Jackson fans, Project DAC is up (check profile). Also if you check my profile, you'll see that a certain project's status has changed. No, I'm not going to say this 7 times.
Finally, special thanks to GuardianNature2012 ( u/4393039/GuardianNature2012) for staffing my community, which has gone undergone a name change for clearance. community/MegaMan-Net-Navi-Era-Stories/109716/
Okay, I think that's everything out the way. Thanks for reading and don't forget to review!
Roll couldn't believe it. She was married to Megaman. She didn't even know that navis could get married, but did it matter? Not to her. All she knew was that at that moment, nothing else really mattered to her. She was the happiest that she had ever been in her life.
Lan's and Mayl's wedding had corresponded at the same time; they all had the same friends and it would be easier in the long run so no one really saw a reason against it.
Everything had beautiful. Roll looked around to see the other navis walking around enjoying themselves, but she couldn't find Megaman anywhere. She popped open a screen to see her NetOp and her husband happily together. She really hated to disturb them, but maybe they knew where Mega had gone.
"Mayl?" Roll said quietly. She really did feel bad about this.
"Oh, Roll? Hi, what's up?" Mayl asked, clearly lost in her own joy to notice much of anything right now.
"Do you know where Mega is? I can't seem to find him anywhere."
"No, I don't. Hold on one second." She heard Mayl ask Lan if he had heard from his brother. A few seconds later, "Lan says the last time he saw him was when he was with you. He can't seem to get in contact with him either."
"Okay thanks." Roll said closing the window. She hoped that Lan wouldn't go crazy trying to find his brother. He really needed to be spending this time with Mayl. Roll sighed to herself knowing that her hope was in vain and that Lan was secretly freaking out about Mega being missing. Great, now she was ruining their special night.
As Roll walked around in the crowd, she eventually bumped into Glyde and Gutsman. Both navis didn't know where Megaman was either, but they told her that she would be the first to know when they did.
A few minutes later, Roll knew something was wrong. She had looked for Mega in the crowd at least twice and still hadn't found him. It was if he left magically. He wouldn't do that…would he? No, she shook her head. He loved her; he wouldn't just abandon her like this. Something didn't add up. Roll shut her eyes, trying to retrace the day's events.
When she opened them, she was in a new place. The Net area she was in was dark and gloomy. It reminded her of the Elec Tower Comp that she had been taken so many years. She was still afraid of bats to this day.
She tried to make contact with Mayl; but for some reason or another, communication between them was blocked. Then, she saw something just a few steps away. The object was shiny but covered in cyber dust. She picked up the strange item and blew away the particles. Surprised, she almost dropped the thing.
A dark chip.
But they had all been destroyed. Plus, Mega had destroyed Dark Nebula! This thing shouldn't exist! Roll shook herself out of her shock and was about to throw away the cursed chip when she felt electricity zap her.
The chip had activated. Roll tried to fight off the evil inside of it, but she couldn't. She felt herself become lost deep in Murkland and her color palate changed from its vibrant pink to a deep purple.
"Roll?" a voice said.
She turned to see the one who had abandoned her, "Megaman."
The blue navi winced at the harshness of her voice, "Are you okay, Roll?"
"I was okay…before you left me! Where did you go, Hub! Were you upset that you married a weak navi like me? Well, I can assure you that I'm not weak. I'm strong. Stronger that you ever will be."
"Roll, I don't think you're weak at all. You are strong, I know that." Megaman said nervously.
"No you don't. You won't," her arm transformed into her bow, "Not before I delete you that is. Then the world will know that I'm not just a weakling navi who can be kidnapped ever two seconds."
"Roll, calm down. You're acting crazy."
"No Mega, I'm not," she said as she charged up an arrow, "I'm acting the way I should've acted many years ago."
Then she fired the arrow right into his navi mark. At close range, the arrow cracked the emblem and it fell to the ground. He looked back at her in disbelief before he too fell and joined his useless symbol in deletion. RollDS merely turned her head to the data, "Good riddance."
But on the inside, Roll was crying. She had deleted the love of her life.
"End that program now!" Dr. Hikari yelled as he himself joined the other scientist trying to end the program running in Roll. Today, SciLab was testing their new dream program on navis. They had never been able to dream before, so Dr. Hikari decided to help them. Roll was one of the navis who had signed up.
After she had gone to sleep, they had put her through what would be considered a good dream. She seemed to be peaceful then and even the smallest of smiles appeared on her face. But then they allowed her to experience a nightmare. During this part, something unexpected started to happen. The other subjects had merely twisted and turned, but they never did what was happening to Roll. Her data became unformatted. She had started to be deleted. It was if the experience itself was killing her.
Mayl was crying into Lan as she saw her navi go through her first nightmare. It was terrible watching her face turn to agony. She seemed as if she wanted to start screaming but didn't know how to. Her eyes were squeezed shut as she squirmed around. The fact that that dream was also causing her navi to delete herself was also causing Mayl to cry for her navi.
As she was brought out of the nightmare, her data reformatted back to its normal specs. Roll snapped awake and began to look blindly around the room, completely unaware that she had almost faced deletion moments earlier. Where was he?
'There!' she thought as she saw him. Mega was running towards her. She quickly got up and fell into his arms sobbing. He was still there. Still alive. She hadn't deleted him.
"It's okay, Roll. Sshh. It's okay." Mega said as he rocked her back and forth.
"Get it out of me." She spoke into his chest.
"What?"
"Get this blasted program out of me! I don't want it! I hate it!" she yelled as more tears came out of her. As Mega tried to quiet her, she was reminded again and again of that nightmare. Of the unimaginable. Of his deletion…by her hand.
