Side Chapter 02: Internet Battle; The RTS Kings
--------------------------------------------------------------------
06:00 PM, Black Knight HQ…
Lelouch tapped his fingers idly; C.C. is taking too long to order boxes of pizza. Deciding he can't wait her anymore, he logged on Keith's Gaming Site…
SovietBrittania has joined the chatroom.
Current Users in the chatroom: BigBossKK, GinoMeister, ElectricGuy, MrLolitaComplex, BloodyMurder, CurlyTops, ImATrap, ChessMaster, Siscon101…
GinoMeister: W00t! SovietBrittania is back!
ElectricGuy: Guess whose back for more punishment eh… Want to be owned again rookie?
Lelouch typed furiously…
SovietBrittania: I will not make the same mistake as last time! You'll eat your words!
MrLolitaComplex: What mistake did he make?
BigBossKK: He forgot to make air units… He made an Airfield but never used it…
PizzaQueen has joined the chatroom.
SovietBrittania: Finally! What took you so long?
PizzaQueen: I got lost in the way of life…
ElectricGuy: Wait a friggin minute! Two vs. One? No fair!
ChessMaster: I'll team up with you ElectricGuy; it's my first time playing Generals. A friend of mine suggested playing C&C: Generals and Rise of Nations. I prefer Rise of Nations more.
GinoMeister: Let me guess… You saw your friend playing Generals so you decided to try it…
ChessMaster: You are correct…
GinoMeister: By the way… you three seem new here in the chat room.
BloodyMurder: I need to ask BigBossKK about the Silent Hill 4: The Room game… Is it full of gore?
BigBossKK: Yes… and I suggest you play it in the dark, when the clock strikes twelve…
BloodyMurder: Well… that answers my question…
BloodyMurder has logged off the chat room.
ElectricGuy: What about you two?
CurlyTops: Were only spectators… We will watch this match…
ImATrap: XD
GinoMeister: What are you guys waiting for? Let's get it on!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Ten minutes later…
CurlyTops: Impressive strategy ChessMaster…
ChessMaster: I just build an extension base far from my main because I may get harassed early in the game…
PizzaQueen: I told you to make an extension base… but no! You say, 'We'll blitz them out'…
SovietBrittania: How will I know that they established an extension base! And you say 'Let's harass ElectricGuy so we can interfere his unit production…'
ChessMaster: Actually, if you guys blitzed us, we instantly lost because we were focused on gathering resources…
SovietBrittania: See, I told you my plan is more effective.
PizzaQueen: … I hate you…
GinoMeister: Aww… You made your girlfriend angry at you SovietBrittania…
SovietBrittania: She's not! She's a girl and she's a friend, but she's not my girlfriend!
ImATrap: Denial is the first step…
BigBossKK: I concur…
ChessMaster: Me also…
CurlyTops: Same here…
SovietBrittania has logged off the chat room.
PizzaQueen has logged off the chat room.
GinoMeister: They logged off together… Guilty as charged!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Lelouch looked at C.C. "Do you think were in a relationship?"
"No…"
"Do you think we should get affected by them?"
"No…"
"Do you think we should eat now?"
"No… I mean yes."
"Got you."
"I really hate you."
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Twenty-Four hours later…
SovietBrittania has logged in the chat room.
Current Users in the chatroom: BigBossKK, GinoMeister, ElectricGuy, MrLolitaComplex, BloodyMurder, CurlyTops, ImATrap, ChessMaster, Siscon101…
GinoMeister: So where's your girlfriend?
SovietBrittania: You! Shut up!
GinoMeister: Hey hey, cool down!
SovietBrittania: Anyways, I want a rematch ElectricGuy!
ElectricGuy: Later, BigBossKK has an announcement to make…
Announcement: Command & Conquer: Generals Zero:Hour is now available on the DOWNLOAD tab.
SovietBrittania: Generals Zero:Hour? A sequel?
BigBossKK: It's an expansion. New units/upgrades, new story for each faction and new battle maps to play on.
GinoMeister: Zero:Hour huh? Better try this one…
ElectricGuy: Huh? You haven't played Generals yet?
GinoMeister: I always play Red Alert 3. Anyways, I'm downloading the game.
BloodyMurder: Downloading also… Maybe I'll win now here against CurlyTops and ImATrap…
CurlyTops: This looks… promising…
ImATrap: Downloading… XD
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Keith was snoozing off his room, when the doors opened, revealing Rina and Roland, the characters of Luminous Arc 2 and Keith's agents.
"Rise and shine Keith!" Rina happily exclaimed.
"Shhh, don't wake him up like that…" Roland spoke.
"As if he will get angry at me..." Rina began to nudge Keith out of his slumber, "Oi, Keith, Angelique is wielding the harisen again…"
That woke Keith up, "Wha- No, anything but that…" He looked around then looked at Rina, "I really, really want to strangle you… But it I can't for some unknown reason…"
"Just admit it Keith…" The voice of Electric mused, "…you're soft on girls…"
"And you're planning a lemon fanfict of Luminous Arc 2 that involves harem and…" Dimitrii's voice began, but was silenced by Reverie's yell that sounds like, "You retard! You ate my fired rice again!" and was followed by screams of unequaled pain and hurt.
"It could be a better end for him…" Electric spoke.
Keith looked at Roland, "So, what's your business here?"
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Samael fell on his knees in his room on the, "Wh-who are you?!" He angrily said at no one as his eyes began to lose its life. He remained there kneeling for a few minutes until he began to snicker. He stood up and began to clench and unclench his hands.
"Go back to where you came from Samael…" He spoke; his irises were replaced by blood red colored ones.
"Now to toy with someone's life…" He spoke sinisterly.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
"What do you mean I can't leave this world?!" Yuuki asked angrily at Four Murasame. The Death Star was about to leave when Four suddenly showed up with Negi as back-up.
"I'll not waste time so I'll explain it on simpler terms… If you leave, this world will crumble." Four spoke as if she was talking about the weather.
"What?!"
Sighing, Four continued to explain, "You and I were the Key Stones of this world… The reason this world is still here is the two of us, so if you leave, it's like turning off the Life Support System of a fatally injured man or pulling the bottom part of a stack of bricks."
Yuuki bit her lower lip, she wanted to see her father, but she can't leave the world her father worked so hard in ruins.
"Fine." Yuuki said. Four was about to say something when Yuuki raised a finger, "But it wont stop me from sending a rescue team."
Four smiled, "You and I were on the same page actually…" Four handed a list of potential rescuers of Sheo Darren. "Now, let's get to work…"
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Speaking of Sheo, let's see what he is doing…
"I can't believe you summoned an Author as a Heroic Spirit!" Rin exclaimed at Sakura when Archer (Sheo) told them who really he was.
"I blame the 'Kurogane Surge'…" Sheo/Archer spoke, "On other issues, the 'Kurogane Surge' has faltered on one of the OC in this world…"
"Do you mean an OC in this world has immunity against an Author's Passive Skills?" Ilya asked while she is still clinging on Sheo's arm.
"I haven't tried to expand the 'Sheo Darren Effect' here, but I think it won't work on who ever he/she is…" Sheo told them. "I also sensed something sealed in this world… something dangerous…"

Get out of here Keith! We'll buy you to some time to escape!
Don't mind us you idiot! Go now!
"Mikhail… Ysabelle…" Keith murmured on his sleep as he began to toss and turn.
So tired… go on Keith without me…
I'll stay with her Keith… Just go on without us…
"Maria… Zephyr…" Tears began to roll down his face.
Hey! Look at the hot chick!
Wonder if-
"Bastards! Stay away from her!" Keith began to yell, kick and punch.
Keith… help…
"Marianne…" Keith cried on his sleep.
On the doorway, Angelique leaned on the wall and slid down crying, "Why can't you forget that incident…"
--------------------------------------------------------------------
On an empty warehouse…
"It could have been a better place…" Warden spoke while munching on a bag of potato chips.
"We tried our best…" Jones spoke, "but we were short on budget… and why can't we raid the biggest hotel and kick it's occupants out?"
"Because if we did, the Seraphs of the Nuclear Winter will hunt us down…" Kamina spoke while cleaning his sword.
"I blame Eclectic for our situation… and the 'Kurogane Surge'…" Rime spoke.
"We concur…" The other scions agreed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Somewhere, The Seraphs were currently engaging an enemy…
"Bullet Train Kick!" Aguni sent his feet on the Fan boy's stomach, which sent the poor soul soaring 30 feet in the air. He then followed up with a "Meteorite Barrage!" which is a glorified gattling kick on the chest.
"So, will you tell me where's your leader is?" Aguni spoke, his feet still vibrating due to the weapon called 'Chaotic Particle Boots' that he is still wearing.
"I told you I DON'T KNOW!" The poor Fan boy yelled, still clutching his stomach in pain.
Shrugging, Aguni walked away from the downed Fan boy, "Your turn Dimitrii…"
"Finally!" Dimitrii began to do his stretching exercise, "Maglaro tayo!" (Let's play!)
The Fan boy made a silent prayer for himself.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Keith woke up with a minor headache. "Damn, I slept too much…" He quickly took a bath, changed his clothes to his 'Casual Non-Combat Mode' and went out, only to see Angelique lying on the floor, asleep.
"Huh?" the only question Keith's brain made at that situation. He quickly scooped the girl and put her on his bed.
Keith then noticed that she has tearstains on her face, "Sorry if I always made you cry…" and he then kissed Angelique on the forehead lightly.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Back at the Chat room…
BigBossKK: I'll be releasing the top five rankings for Command & Conquer Generals Zero:Hour this week:
1st: ChessMaster
ChessMaster: Just got lucky… I guess…
2nd: ImATrap
GinoMeister: Oh yeah! Nice one buddy! *High Five*
ImATrap: XD *High Five*
3rd: ElectricGuy
ElectricGuy: Not Bad…
4th: PizzaQueen
GinoMeister: Whoa, SovietBrittania's girlfriend made it.
5th: BloodyMurder/SovietBrittania
ImATrap: A tie?
BigBossKK: I need to recheck the server if it's true… apparently it is true…
BloodyMurder: So, where is SovietBrittania?
GinoMeister: I bet he is tired going at it with PizzaQueen… XD
PizzaQueen:You! Shut Up!
BigBossKK: Now here's the ranking for Rise of Nations…
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The new entity that hi-jacked his new body from Samael who hi-jacked it from Forsaken284 who hi-jacked it from someone else, grinned evilly when he saw Keith's picture on the log-list…
"So he's still alive eh?" He then polished his brand new SPAS-12 Benelii Shotgun. "I'll make sure you weren't this time."
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Keith sighed after he announced the rankings. He hen took an isolated disk on the shelf labeled '16th Birthday'. He then popped the disk into the CD/DVD Drive and opened the file inside named 'Happy Birthday Keith'
"Keith-kun! Happy Birthday!" A girl spoke behind the camera.
The younger Keith, who is 16 years old bug-eyed, "Eh?! Marianne-chan, put the video recorder on the tripod and let's eat!"
The video suddenly stopped shaking as a girl aged 16, wearing a long dress, approached younger Keith while holding a cake.
She began to sang, "You are my sunshine, my only sunshine…"
"Eh? I thought you'll gonna sing 'Happy Birthday'…"
Marianne said sweetly, "This song is much better so please sing with me… You are my sunshine, my only sunshine…"
Sighing, the younger Keith smiled as he sang, "You make me happy when skies are gray…"
"You'll never know dear, how much I love you…" Marianne sang as she winked at the camera. At that point, Keith paused the video and began to sob, "Why you've take my sunshine away…"
