The streets bustled with shoppers. The city was filled with banners and ribbon. Happy faces filled the streets. People sang along the road, singing tunes of joy and friendship. Each store in the city was decked with ribbon, glass balls, paintings, and fake snow.
It was Christmas in Den-Tech. Each Christmas the streets were filled with shoppers, children and adult alike. Everyone wanted to get the best gifts for the Christmas day. On a large clock in the main plaza it read, two days six hours and thirty-nine minutes till Christmas.
Hundreds of people walked these busy streets. But this story is not about them, on no. This story is about a small group of children and their Navis. And the difference they make in yours, their own, and everyone lives.
This group of merry children live in the town of ACDC. They are Lan Hikari, Megaman EXE, Maylu Sakurai, Roll EXE, Chaud Blaze, Dex Oyama, Yai Ayanokoji, Gutsman EXE, Glyde EXE, and Protoman EXE.
This group is important because they are the friends and family of one of the world's greatest heroes, Megaman EXE. Even these people themselves are heroes. Without them the world would have been dominated by the WWW, Neo WWW, Gospel, and most recently the Dark Star.
One year prior to now an organization named Dark Star, controlled by a evil version of Megaman, tried to dominate the world. They planned to use their power to find the Serpent Wing to create a virus to kill humans and Navis. This was called the Blue Shadow.
However the leader of Dark Star failed in his attempt. He and his operatives were defeated by Megaman and his friends. One the final battle on board the ship 'Eden' Megaman fought his double and the Blue Shadow. To save himself and his friends he trapped himself and the virus in a barrier and killed himself. This event was a devastating blow for the entire world, especially to Roll.
Megaman and Roll had been friends for years but most recently they began to fall in love. On the deck of 'Eden' in Megaman's final hours he expressed his feeling about Roll.
Many thought Megaman to have died in the crash of the 'Eden'. Instead Doctor Hikari, Lan's father and creator of the Net Navis. Used data he had from Megaman's programming to raise him from the dead.
Megaman returned home a hero once again and has spent every moment with his friends and his new girlfriend Roll. We now jump back to our present year. It is soon to be Christmas and everyone is happy.
As everyone is preparing for one of the biggest celebrations of the year Megaman and Lan are in town looking for gifts for their girlfriends. Megaman is looking for something for Roll, while Lan is looking for something for Maylu.
During the battle before now doctor Hikari invented a way for Navis to walk amoung the humans. This invention was distributed all around the world. PET's were a thing of the past. Now Navi's used real weapons, but many preferred to use their busters, swords, axes, lances, and bows.
Lan and Megaman were walking around a flower shop. They needed a present fast but neither of the boys knew what to buy a girl for Christmas. So far they had checked game shops, flowers, and clothes. Then it hit Megaman like a ton of bricks.
Megaman, being in the real world now, wore a blue T-shirt, blue jeans and blue sneakers with a red stripe. He looked to his friend Lan, who as always wore a orange vest with black shorts and a blue headband.
"Hey Lan, I know what to get Roll." Megaman said as they made their third round of the shop.
"What?" asked Lan, as he was completely board.
"I'm going to go to the jewelry store and buy her a necklace." He said proudly.
Lan chuckled, it was a good idea but there was one problem, "Just one thing Megaman, how are you going to find enough money to pay for the jewelry?"
Megaman's expression went from proud to sulking, "Oh….I forgot about that part…" he said embarrassed. Megaman went back to thinking, I really want to buy her a necklace but I know I would never have the money… he thought.
An hour later Lan gave up on the search and went home. Megaman stayed behind, he was determined to find the perfect gift. Megaman entered a jewel store. The store was small, almost hidden by all the other buildings, inside it was bright and colorful. Hundreds of rings, broaches, necklaces, earrings, and other jewelry sat in large glass cases waiting to be bought.
"Helo-oooo" Megaman said to the empty store.
There was a loud crash from the back and a woman apperead. She was a elderly woman, about eighty. She had short silver hair in a bun on her head. She wore a long white gown with pink flowers on it and smilled happily at the teen standing in her doorway.
"Well hello young man, what can I do for you?" she asked in a sweet voice that Megaman noticed all old people had.
"Well ma'am I'm looking for something for my girlfriend but…"
"But you can't figure out what she wants?" said the woman cutting him off.
Megaman nodded and saw the woman smile.
"Well Megaman I think I might have just the thing for you." She said smlining wider.
The woman walked to a back room and, after a while, reapperad with a pink pearl necklace. In the enter on the necklace was a gold plate. The woman handed it to Megaman so he could examin it.
"What do you think?" the woman asked after a while.
"It's beautiful, how much is it?" Megaman asked, taken back by the beauty that the shining light made it look.
"It's twenty thousand zennys." The woman said duly, apparently she didn't like saying the price. Who would, it was beautiful jewelry but not worth what the cost was.
"Oh…." Said Megaman sadly, he didn't have anywhere near that amount.
The woman noticed this and spoke as Megaman layed the jewels onto the counter, "Tell you what Megaman, if you do me a favor I'll give you the necklace for free. What do ya say?"
Megaman brightened up, "Of course. What would you like me to do?"
"Oh it's quite simple. This morning my cat, Frisky, ran away. I saw him run off into town somewhere. If you could, please look for him. IF you find him bring him here and I'll give you the necklace."
"Ok. So what does Frisky look like?"
"Well, he's brown with white stripes, he has a limp in his left back leg, and a black spot on his right eye. He loves the sound of water and the smell of fish, if that helps."
"Thanks I'll go looking for it, Mrs…."
"Oh, sorry my names Mrs. Taram, but you can call me Flora."
Megaman smilled as he headed for the door, "Ok Flora, I'll be back soon with your cat."
"Thank you." She said as he ran off looking for the cat.
