Review Responses:

terratasha: What, you're not having fun? XD You should know by now my definition of fun can mean two things: extremely bad or extremely good. Normally, the extremely bad is sarcasm though. XD Ashe is not meant to be liked. She exists to (is immediately distracted by something shiny). Uhhhhhhhhhh...what was I talking about again?

Lucario: Sometimes the only action to no logic is no logic. XD I originally didn't count Dark Mega but you're right too.

Judy the Sylveon: First off, your name is amazing and I have to ask if you're a shiny or not. But still, you're awesome. (Sylveon is my favorite Eeveelution). So when I read your review initially I read forum and not fourm so I immediately started wondering if someone had made a forum for this and then I reread it and realized you were saying form. XD


DN Quiz Answer: Dark Mega - BN5, Cybeasts - BN6, Dark Hub - DN3


Day 3 Part 3 - Stunned Like A Lightning Strike

When Megaman had gotten to the Beach Street Network, he had been expecting vines to have grown all over the place. Water had flooded all over the network, making traversing it quite difficult. But eventually he managed to make it to the front of the Hospital Network. Now, all he needed was a way in.

"OH! There you are!" A female voice said, sounding quite relieved. In seconds, a yellow navi bounded from her place up on the higher road and landed right in front of him. She wore a bright gold bodysuit which bubbles all over her for the design. Though the rims of where the ankles and wrists were transitioned to blue gloves and boots. The subtle change would have almost clashed had it not been for her green hair and eyes.

Megaman pulled out his buster. Roll and Saber had said that it was Ashe who had the Hospital on lockdown and had hurt Lan, so then who was this navi?

She quickly put her hands up, "Wait don't shoot! I'm only here to talk...and keep people other than you away, like the Officials…" She replied timidly.

Megaman didn't seem convinced, but lowered his buster, "You were the one who broke out Ashe, weren't you?" It seemed too coincidental that these two navis would be together in the exact same area and not have anything to do with each other.

"Yeah. She's my sister; I couldn't just leave her in that place. I know what you hero types do to navis like her! There's no way I could let her get deleted!" She yelled accusingly.

"She wasn't going to be deleted," Megaman responded, beginning to feel irked. Not the very same conversation again he had been trying to avoid…

The yellow navi glared at him, "Is that what you always say whenever you enter in some network? Let me tell you something. Ashe is all I have. We were part of the same project to create twin element navis. And you know what...we worked. And because of that, we got ousted by the very person we were created by. Just for having an opinion go figure. We were lost for days before we found someone who's navi had just been deleted. I pushed Ashe forward for her to be taken up. She needed to be looked after more than I did. I've been alone on the Net for all this time making sure she was alright. Ashe's NetOp said something about one being a handful enough or something like that. When she got arrested, the only thing I could think of was what would I do if she was gone. And I didn't like what the outcome was."

Megaman lowered the buster, "And is this any better?"

"Yeah, it is. I can't say I don't see things from Bass's perspective. Humans are evil. All of them. They use us. They abandon us. They force us to destroy each other. All of this….it all needs to be destroyed and restarted. Even...even us." she said sadly, looking at the ground.

Megaman stepped back, "What?"

The navi shook her head, "I've said enough." She walked to the side, "They're waiting for you in Room 200. Please excuse the mess inside. I had to do something to safeguard her." Megaman looked at her cautiously as he began to walk past her. However, before he left, she turned to his retreating form, "Look at the extent I'm willing to go for my sister. I can only imagine what you would do for your brother. But...even if we deleted each other...which one of us would be the villain. One of us would have destroyed a family and caused nothing but more chaos. Even if we saved our loved ones, would we really be hereos at the end of the day?"

The blue navi continued to walk into the network, only feeling more and more unjustified with every step. So consumed by his thoughts that he missed one important note.

Tundra had said, his brother...


"Megaman, or should I say Hub Hikari? Hmm...what about Hub? Hubby? Nah, too friendly for someone of your magnitude," Ashe asked as she noticed the navi enter the network.

"Megaman!" Roll and Saber said relieved as the blue navi appeared. However, Roll's smile faltered when she noticed his face. He looked as if something had literally been ripped from inside of him. Not to mention the large crack that ran along side the top of his helmet had also disturbed her. And the fact that he wasn't even reacting to the fact that Ashe was calling him by his human name.

"Mega?" She asked as he silently walked past her. As he passed, she felt a chill run through her. It wasn't a dark aura, but it was...weird. Angry and confused. Upset. Guilty. So many emotions were running through him all at once. She shivered. She could understand and feel these emotions, but she had to wonder if she would be able to handle this magnitude of it all at once.

"What's wrong with him?" Saber asked, noticing the difference in demeanor himself. He guessed that he finally learned who the heck was Hub, but still...this wasn't the navi he had befriended over the years.

Roll shook her head, "I...I don't know."

Megaman stepped in front of Ashe, "What do you want Ashe?" He asked, his voice almost lifeless.

"Ah, why'd you have to get so pouty, Hub? You're making this less fun for me when you're so serious all of time. Lighten up a bit. Although, I am planning on deleting you so there's that." She said smugly as she sent a snarky smirk in his direction.

Megaman didn't show any emotional response, "Wouldn't that just make you like me?"

Ashe laughed softly, "I guess it would. Though I guess the one difference between us is that I don't mind killing humans." She mentioned before the wires on her back snaked to life.

"I'm not fighting you." He said with finality as he shook his head. He wasn't doing it anymore. There had to be a choice in all of this. Some way in order to beat the obvious choice. He wasn't going to do it, he told himself. He wasn't going to put himself in another situation to get data on his hands.

The blue navi cocked an eyebrow in surprise. However, she soon began to connect the dots in the navi's sudden change in direction, "Tundra already talked to you didn't she?" Ashe sighed, "Man, and she just had to screw up your mind even more. She was just supposed to let you pass. Great…" She groaned as she began to think of a new plan. Her sister meant well, but her methodology worked a little too well.

"Look, can't we just stop this. No one had to be deleted. Just give yourself up…" Megaman suggested.

Ashe just laughed, "Oh no...no, no, no. I didn't just do this so that you would wimp out of me." She roared. She had put too much at stake. If she was going to die or go back to jail, she wanted to make it worth it.

The vents opened up in the room as heat blasted through them. Underneath Roll and Saber, electricity seemed to surge just under the panels. The very ground kept them from moving freely away.

Megaman looked around him and then back at Ashe, "Ashe, stop this! We don't need to kill each other!"

Ashe merely shook her head, "It's time for you to decide. Fight me or someone gets it. I burn every human in this building to a crisp and send enough electricity through this network to give these navis the shock of their lives. It won't kill them, but I wonder how they'll react when all the realize all their NetOps have died. Will they rejoice or break down into insanity!"

The blue bomber actually began to show worry for everyone, "Ashe don't!"

"AAAARRRGGGHHHHH!" Yells from Mayl, Saria, and Lan echoed in the navi's head. Ashe had just sent a violent voltage through the network. Saria and Mayl were far enough away to only be knocked out, but Lan was still close to that door. There was no way to know what condition he was in.

"You're not a navi! You're a monster!" Saber yelled out in anger as Roll was holding back a scream.

"Well human, did that remind you of why you're here? I hope you remember that last time we meet, you were able to stop me without deleting me. You still have options. What do you say? Not a fight to the death?" Ashe said as her wires danced in the air, seeming almost eager enough to shock the humans again. It was impossible to know who else was harmed by her. Who else was close to that door other than Lan? Who else had just suffered like his brother, who had already been unconscious?

"I….I'm…."

"Oh crap." The blue and green navi said as he noticed that Megaman's eyes were beginning to tint red.

"Hub no!" Roll yelled, her voice coming back. But the damage was already done.

"I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!" Hub roared as the Gregar Beast Out instantly took over his body. The shock had done a number on the PET, frying out any of the controls over the cyber beast power and instead of Beasting Out, Hub had Beasted Over.

The navi's eyes glowed red with anger. Whatever thought process that he had in keeping her alive had gone out the window. And little did he know he had played right into Ashe's plan. She made a silent goodbye and apology to her sister. Megaman would definitely delete her now. She hadn't killed Lan, but had hurt him enough to trigger this reaction.

Soon, Megaman would see just what fueled him to destroy.


Tundra's eyes widened as she heard her sister's scream. The Officials were right outside and banging on the bubbles she had created. However, Protoman had already begun his attack and would soon be at their doorstep. But none of that mattered to her anymore. Ashe was gone. And that was all that mattered. The yellow navi dropped down the ground crying. She hadn't the right to. She had gone along with this. After breaking her out, she should have just gotten her to leave with her and have them both roam the Net again. Just like old times. There was only one problem.

Ashe would have never been happy. Ever since that woman, Ashe had gotten obsessed with her ideology. Ever since she had learned that there had been a navi in the beginning who had done the very same things as the navis he deleted, Ashe had wanted to show him just how his true nature was. He was no hero. He was a monster waiting to be unleashed. She wanted to break him. Maybe it was anger that a human was walking among them and their own past that drove Ashe to such an obsession, but it didn't matter anymore. She was gone.

"Freeze!" Protoman yelled as he caught sight of the navi. Tundra merely stayed on the ground and continued to cry.

She just wanted to forget everything. Today had been enough.


It wasn't until after the network had been warped back to normal, that Megaman regained full control over his body. He had stopped rampaging after her had slashed through Ashe, but had stayed in some unbelieving state for several minutes after the red in his vision lessened.

"Huh? What?" The navi started as he shook his head. He turned to see Saber completely dumbfounded and Roll wearing a pretty sad expression. Little to his knowledge, all three of the NetOps were being kept in addition to the other people in the hospital for electric burns and shocks.

The Beasted Out navi stepped forward, but was caught off guard when Saber stepped back. Then the memory flashes came back. The navi began to grip his head as playback after playback played out in his head. What the heck had he done?

"Mega?" her voice interjected and ruined one of the images. But it had been too innocent. Too good. Ashe had been right; he was nothing more than a murderer. No, he had been protecting Lan and the other. But had he really? Or had he just been taking out his anger on someone? Had it been both or perhaps it hadn't been any of them and some other warped reason.

"Hub?" She asked again, sounding closer. Megaman closed his eyes and stepped backwards. No...this day couldn't be real. This had to be some sick twisted dream produced by Dark Hub. He was being messed with right?

"Hub, it's okay." That caused him to freeze. How dare she say that things were okay? Things were beyond the definition of okay. No, things were clearly not okay.

"It wasn't your fault. She forced you to get that mad," She said, trying to reason with him. But Hub was having none of it. She hadn't forced him to use all of his anger. Perhaps...he had wanted to use it. He had been using the peace thing as a facade, just waiting for someone to let him pull the trigger.

"You weren't the bad guy."

…...Yes, he was.

"WILL YOU JUST SHUT UP? STOP PRETENDING YOU UNDERSTAND ME WHEN YOU DON'T GET ANYTHING AT ALL!" He yelled angrily, frustrated beyond belief that no one could see the animal he actually was. He was the very definition of freak show. Part navi, part human. Who the hell did he think he was? He wasn't some hero. He was nothing more that a killer monster. He was…

A heartbreaker.

Roll shrank back quickly, surprised by the yelling. Hub had only ever once yelled at her, but even that didn't have the venom that this one had. The anger in the his green eyes faded as he saw her own fill with tears. He scared, right down to her soul coul.

The blue navi paused for a moment, realizing just how he had lashed out against. First Lan, and now Roll, "Roll...I...I didn't…" He started before Saber stepped into the picture.

He wore the angriest expression that Megaman had ever seen him have in his life, "I think you did enough Megaman." He said, his voice cold like ice.

The navi nodded, "You're right….I'll...I'll leave now. Sorry." He said before walking away from the two navis, feeling the lowest he had ever felt in his life.

Just what the hell was he?


Ghost Note: Hey everyone, I just put out a new poll on my profile and I would appreciate it if you could at least take a look at it.


Update: Monday

Ghost: ...Uh...I'm just going to leave this quiz here and log out. I think I've broken too many feels right now. Then again, I've probably already done that in the past...and will inevitably end up doing it again. But that's why you guys stick around right? *nervously laughs* Right? Uh...well um...this is awkward. *steps off camera* Bye!
