CHAPTER 2 : Final Bug

"Flashman! We deleted you when you were trying to take over the world alongside Wily! How did you get here?!" Megaman exclaimed.

"I was restored from backup data. However, my NetOp is still in custody, so I'm going solo. Dark Chip!" Flashman said, and a black chip floated in front of him. The DarkSoul appeared in front of him, he absorbed it, and his skin became darker. "Heheheheheh. I am...Flashman DS!!"

"Lan, Flashman used a Dark Chip!" Megaman exclaimed.

"I know. That means no HubStyle." Lan said.

"But it means Flashman is a Nebula Navi! And it also means Nebula has a new leader, or Regal is back!" Megaman explained.

"It's a good thing we're so powerful. Anyway, we have all those Terachips Dad gave us." Lan said. "This fight is won."

"But Dad said those chips were to be used in emergencies only!" Megaman argued.

"Oh, fine. If things get rough, take off your limiters."

"Agreed."

"Are you two done talking?" a rough voice said. "'Cause now I'll kill you!!" Flashman said. "Hypnosis Flash!"

"Let's fight fire with fire! Blind, Battlechip in! Download!" Lan said, and a huge flash blinded Flashman. "Now! Megaman, WoodStyle! SeedBomb3, Battlechip in! Download!" Lan said. Megaman's armor changed to a light green, and he threw the SeedBomb. It hit Flashman and exploded with a resounding THUD. "Did we get him?" Lan asked.

"I think so." Megaman replied.

"I think not." Flashman said from behind them.

"What?! How?!" Lan said.

"Like I said, I was reborn. Now I'll finish you! Dark Thunder!"

"Megaman, the limiters!!" Lan yelled. "Go BugStyle!!" Then there was a flash, and both Navis were gone. "Huh? Where'd they go?" Lan asked.

"BugStyle teleported them to a glitch in my system. I think Megaman'll be fine. He's on his own ground." Dr. Hikari said. Suddenly, a static face of Megaman appeared on Lan's PET.

"Hub....Style....Lan...."

"Dad, did you see that?" Lan asked.

"See what?"

"Megaman's head on my PET."

"No."

"I'm coming, Megaman!! PerfectSyncro!" Lan said.

"No Lan! Not there!" his dad screamed.

"See you." Lan was immediately synced with Megaman. He immediately saw Flashman preparing to kill Megaman, and he noticed Megaman was unconscious. He also saw that BugStyle had fused with HubStyle. He began to get up.

"No! Stay down!" Flashman said.

"I don't think I will." Lan said. He then moved behind Flashman at massive speed. "This is for Megaman." Lan punched Flashman. He felt the HubStyle drain out of him as it was countered by darkness, but he kept punching at high speed.

"This is for Dad." Lan said, and he moved in front of Flashman and gave him an uppercut. "And this is for me!!" Lan activated the last resort, the chip to activate the Legendary Beserker: Basscross Megaman. Lan could feel the BugStyle merging with Bass's power, and he felt HubStyle return. He was now BugStyle BassCross Hub. Lan attacked. "Bug Gospel!" he shouted, and Bass's Gospel cannon materialized on his arm. Lan shot it, and it enveloped Flashman.

"That....will not.....beat.....me!" Flashman cried. "Dark Fusion!" Flashman seemed to absorb the attack. Lan knew he only had a little time before he had to release the cross, and Flashman was absorbing his attack! What could beat him?

"That was tasty." Flashman said. He has absorbed the attack and healed himself. However, he looked... lighter colored. He gained the energy from the attack! Lan knew what to do. Flashman had Megaman's energy inside him, keeping him whole. But, if he absorbed too much pure energy, he would disintegrate.

"Earthbreaker!" Lan said, blasting Flashman. he absorbed it, as expected. Now Flashman was an even lighter color. Lan had about one more attack. "I will finish this. Bug Vanishing World!!" Lan said. Two Bug Gospel cannons appeared on his arms. Lan leaped, and fired. The attack hit Flashman full on, and he absorbed it. Now Flashman was de-rezzing, and BugStyle Basscross Hub was too.

"I...will take...you...with me!!" Flashman screamed, and the glitch they were in started to fall apart. Dr. Hikari's face appeared on screen.

"Lan! Jack out!" he said. "You'll die!!"

"I won't leave Megaman." Lan said calmly. "I'm not afraid to die. But, Dad, I've been in worse." Lan flashed a grin.

"Lan, no!!" Lan dismissed the Basscross.

"I will come back." And the glitch was auto-fixed by the computer.

"Lan... you idiot." Dr. Hikari said. He went across the room to Lan's body. It seemed to stir, but Dr. Hikari could find no vital signs. Then he heard Lan's seemingly dead body talking.

"Megaman.....we got out....but where are we?" Lan said.
