MegaMan: Alright, here's what's up. The Ball chapter is after the fight with ShadowMan. So don't miss it! Here is the next chapter!
Chapter 4: The Great Camping Adventure!
Today is the day of the camping trip. Everyone got up and got dressed, well except for Lan and Zoey.
"Lan! Wake up! It's camping day!" MegaMan yelled, trying to wake Lan up.
"Zoey Hanson, get your lazy butt out of bed!" Corina yelled.
The Angel Troupe sweat dropped. Milfeulle leaned over to Bridget and whispered "Are Lan and Zoey heavy sleepers?" Bridget nodded. "They almost looked alike." Ranpha got an idea and went downstairs and got a bucket of water and dumped it on Lan and Zoey. They both yelled out "AUGHHH!! TOO COLD!!!" They got up. "What did you do that for?!" Lan demanded. "It's camping day!" Kikki shouted excitedly. "Oh crud!" Both Lan and Zoey gulped as they hurried up and got dressed. "Hey Lan! Dex sent us an email and told us to hurry up!" MegaMan told him, so after a quick breakfast, Lan and the crew ran to the bus stop.
"Lan Hikari, you're late!" Mayl grumbled. "Sorry Mayl!" Lan replied nervously. "Well I can let that go since you're introducing to your new friends. I'm Mayl. And what's your name?" Mayl introduced herself politely. "I'm Milfeulle Sakuraba." Milfeulle introduced herself politely. "I'm Ranpha Franboise. The most beautiful girl you'll ever see." Ranpha blows a kiss to Dex who was shaking nervously. "I'm Mint Blancmanche. I like junk food and I can talk to people in their minds. Watch." Mint demonstrated her telepathy powers on Yai. Yai thought 'Can she really talk to people in their minds?' 'See? I told you.' Mint told her in her mind which freaked Yai out. "Freaky…" Yai replied. Milfeulle smiled. "Don't worry you'll get used to it." "I'm Forte Stollen." Forte bowed politely. "I'm Vanilla H." Vanilla said nervously. Dex leaned over to Lan and whispered "I never seen them before, who are they?" "That's because they're from another dimension, remember that Zero Virus Incident?" Dex nodded, Lan explained to everyone why the Angel Troupe are here.
"I'm sure the way back home to your dimension will open soon. So I hope you guys enjoy your stay in our world." Mayl smiled. The Angel Troupe smiled back. They are beginning to fit in this world.
"This is Yai, the richest girl in ACDC Town and Dex." Mayl introduced Yai and Dex to the Angel Troupe.
"Alright, the camping ground is in Okuden Valley. Hey guys, the bus is here!" Dex said as the bus pulled up at the bus sign.
"Alright! It's camping time!" Lan cheered as he and the gang entered the bus and the bus drove off to Okuden Valley.
1 hour later, the crew arrived at Okuden Valley. Lan breathes in the fresh air when he and the gang got out. "Ah, fresh air!" Lan smiled.
Milfeulle was also breathing in the fresh air. "This place is incredible. So much nature."
"And check out that hot guy!" Ranpha said with hearts in her eyes as she pointed to an all too familiar face. Lan and the gang looked to where Ranpha is pointing out and when they looked at the guy, Lan frowned. "Chaud…" He muttered angrily.
Chaud noticed them and remain silent as the gang walked up to him. Chaud turned his attention to the Angel Troupe and he thought 'Who are those people that are with Hikari? Never seen them before.' He decided to put it aside for now.
"I thought you said you weren't coming, Chaud." Lan muttered, rolling his eyes.
"I'm only here for something, not camping with YOU." Chaud retorted, Lan was about to said something when Mayl wisely intervened.
"Now now, Lan, let's be nice to Chaud for just once. And Chaud, be nice to Lan and his friends for once, ok?" Mayl suggested. Lan and Chaud turned from each other and muttered "Fine…"
"And let's not forget, I'm camp leader! Let's turn those frowns upside down and let's camp!" Dex shouted excitedly. Just when the gang with Chaud in tow were about to enter the road to the camp grounds, Zoey and Lan pulled Mint and they hide behind the Okuden Valley post.
"What's going on, Lan?" Mint asked confusedly.
"Mint, just a word of advice. Don't use your telepathy on Chaud. If you use that, Chaud may be on to your friends." Lan advised her.
"Remember, Chaud's an Official NetBattler, if he finds out about you and your friends are aliens, he'll call the Officials and the guys at SciLab will run tests on you and your friends. You don't want that." Zoey advised also.
"Got it, telepathy bad." Mint nodded. The three head back to the group.
When the group enters the first area of Okuden Valley, they met a man who has brown hair, a yellow hat, red jacket, brown pants and black shoes, he also wore glasses. He noticed them and smiled. "Hey, you guys camping? Mind when you dump your trash." The man said. The gang nodded and just when they were about to enter the next area, a swam of bees blocked their path.
"B-b-b-bees!!" Vanilla yelled in a sacred tone. "What should we do? The camping grounds are just beyond this path." Mayl asked worriedly, Lan noticed a lighter, a stick and paper lying around this area and got an idea. "Wait here." Lan told everyone as he went to pick up the items. "What's he doing?" Mint asked. Bridget gets it now. "I think he's going to use the items on the ground to get rid of the bees." Lan got the items and got near the bees. "Stand back, everyone!" Lan said, everyone backed off, Lan twisted the paper on the twig and use the lighter to light it up, he swing it back and forth, the bees backed off and are gone. "Good quick thinking, Lan!" Mayl congratulated him. Lan smiled. "Let's keep on moving."
The gang was once again, on their way to the camping grounds. On the way, Chaud began to speak to Lan. "Hikari, who are your new friends?" He asked coldly. Lan was nervous now. If he finds out, the Angel Troupe may never return to their home dimension and SciLab will keep them forever. "Uh, their names are Milfeulle Sakuraba, Ranpha Franboise, Mint Blancmanche, Forte Stollen and Vanilla H. They're from a country far from Electopia. And they're exchanged students and they are living at my house during summer vacation." Lan lied. Chaud stared at Lan with a cold look and then said "Ok." But in his thoughts. 'You're not fooling me, Hikari. I know they're from another dimension brought here by S. So I'm gonna keep it low till the time comes, don't worry Lan, I won't report them to SciLab.'
The gang was almost to the campsite until suddenly, Forte noticed something. 'Guys… Look." She pointed to… a bear! "A bear?!!" Lan's eyes were wide as dinner plates. The bear roared fiercely. 'That's odd… Bears don't appear in this area often.' Chaud thought to himself. "I say we get out of here!" Yai suggested. 'Phew! I glad I didn't soil myself!' She thought to herself secretly. The crew heeded Yai's advice and were about to leave when Milfeulle noticed something behind the waterfall. "Hey guys, what's that?" She pointed to something shining on the ground in the back of the waterfall. Lan walked to pick it up and he realized what it is. 'These are binoculars!" "I wonder… Lan! Use the binoculars to see what that bear is doing here!" MegaMan suggested. Lan nodded and uses the binoculars to learn something odd. "What the?! That's not a bear, it's a fake!" Lan realized it was a robot. "But it looks fierce…" Dex was confused. "Why would this fake bear attack people?" Ranpha asked. "…" Chaud remained silent. "Too scared, huh? I'll handle this!" Lan walked up to the bear and jacked in.
Inside the bear, MegaMan found a Mr. Prog and he told MegaMan of the robot bear's sad story. It turns out, this bear was once a mascot, but eventually it got a virus and was abandoned here in Okuden Valley. And it still has that same virus. It was 3 Spikeys. After 35 seconds, MegaMan easily deleted the viruses.
The bear shuts down. "Lan. We should put this bear somewhere so people won't be alarmed it will attack them." Mayl suggested. Lan nodded and the crew put the bear somewhere so it will be friendly. Lan jacked out MegaMan and the crew finally made it to the camping grounds.
"We finally made it!" Lan said happily as the crew noticed the campers doing the camping things. "Camp means BBQ time! Dismiss!" Dex dismissed everyone.
Lan was resting on a tree and watched what's going on. Zoey, Corina, Milfeulle and Bridget were helping Mayl with the BBQ set, Ranpha was hitting on a guy who was camping, Forte was going over the list of what they need for the BBQ, Vanilla was sweat dropping as Mint begin to eat the junk food she brought with her, Kikki was using her fishing rod to catch some fish, but not successfully, Renee was relaxing on a chair, Yai was looking at the river, and Dex was running back and forth. Chaud was nowhere to be seen, but Lan doesn't mind and Ribitta was panicking because she was supposed to shoot a report on a soccer team. Forte walked up to the tree Lan is resting on. "Lan. Can you help us out with the BBQ? Mayl needs a kitchen knife because she forgot one. Yai said we need some fish, and Dex said we need more firewood to keep the grill running." She explained. "Let's do it." Lan smiled as he leaped out of the tree. Lan went to a nearby camper and asked for her kitchen knife, she lets him borrow it. Next, Lan went to the stones on the river, a man taught him how to catch fish, Lan got about four fishes. And finally, An old man was cutting some wood, Lan asked him if he can chop some wood, the old man cut the wood and gave it to him. And the BBQ is now ready.
Everyone except for Chaud were at the picnic table, the food were set up. And everyone is ready to dig in.
"Alright! Let's chow!" Dex exclaimed happily. Mint has a smile on her face.
"Wait. Where's Chaud?" Milfeulle asked looking around for him.
"Uhh… I dunno. Mayl have you seen him?" Lan asked her. Mayl replied "Well… I heard him saying he's supposed to check p on something."
"Well, it's his lost. Let's eat!" Dex shouted happily. Everyone agreed and eat their food. Lan, Dex, Mint and Zoey were busy eating the food, while Ranpha, Corina, Mayl, Yai, Bridget, Kikki, Renee, Forte, Vanilla and Milfeulle were chatting. Suddenly, there was an explosion!
"What was that?!" Mint yelped as she looked around for the explosion.
"Mayl? Any e-news bulletins?" Lan asked her, Mayl checked her PET and her face looks grim.
"We're out of range here!" Mayl said with fear in her voice.
"Lan! It looks like that explosion came from the dam!" MegaMan pointed out.
"You serious?! We got to get out of here!" Dex yelled as he and the crew started to get their things.
"Wait! What about Chaud?!" Renee asked.
"You're right! Mayl said he was checking on something, maybe the dam! Come on, let's go!" Lan did his famous pose as he, the Mews and the Angel Troupe went to the dam. "Be careful, Lan!" Mayl shouted out to them.
They reached the dam, they were about to enter the dam's area when a scientist stopped them and told them only employees can enter the dam.
"What could Chaud be doing in here?" Milfeulle asked in confusion.
Suddenly, Lan's PET started to ring. "Lan! Incoming phone call from Chaud! I'll patch it thru!" MegaMan patches it thru and Chaud came on the screen. 'Lan. Listen up to what I'm about to tell you. Last night, I came upon a crime notice on the board. A group calling themselves Gospel has planted four bombs throughout Okuden Valley. I need you to find and disarm them. Think you could do it?" Chaud asked. Lan grinned. "You bet!" "ProtoMan and I will find the bomb inside the dam. Don't screw this up, Lan!" Chaud hang up. "Come to think of it. I notice a strange canteen that doesn't have anything to drink in the camping grounds. Could that be a bomb?" Vanilla asked. "Could be. Let's find us some bombs!" Lan and the crew ran back to the camping grounds and founded the first bomb. Lan jacked in MegaMan and the Mews jacked in with the Angel Troupe.
Inside, Lan got another email from Chaud, telling him to look for a round device that is the disarmer. The crew fought their way thru viruses and exploding paths, eventually they made to the disarm system. MegaMan disarmed the first bomb. "One down, three to go!" Lan said. MegaMan and the crew jacked out. Lan and the crew found the next bomb and jacked in MegaMan, the Mews with the Angel Troupe jacked in as well. And again they have to travel thru the exploding paths. "Ugh! When this is over, I'm gonna chill out at Lan's house!" Ranpha complained. The other Angel Troupe and MegaMan and the Mews and Lan chuckled at this. They found the 2nd disarm system and MegaMan easily disarmed it.
They left the camping grounds and found the 3rd bomb in the waterfall cave, and you know the rest.
"One more to go!" Kikki said with confidence. Suddenly, Lan's PET ranged again. "Lan! It's Chaud!" MegaMan patches it thru. "Good job. But it's not over yet! The guy who is the mastermind of this bomb plot is around here somewhere. He has the fourth bomb. Don't let him get away!" Chaud hanged up. "Let's hurry and find that guy!" Milfeulle shouted, the crew nodded and noticed the guy they met before leaving the park. "Hey! Do you know where the guy who planted the bombs is?" Lan asked as he and the gang walked up to him. "The bomber? Nope! Haven't seen him." The guy replied. Mint used her telepathy and heard 'Heh! Those stupid kids don't realize I am the bomber!' "He's lying! He's the bomber!" Mint yelled out. The man was now shocked. "H-how did you-""No one can fool Mint's telepathy!" Forte exclaimed proudly. "Bah! Your friend is right! I, Dave am the bomber!" Dave yelled. "But why?!" Zoey asked angrily. "You people are to blame for ruining Okuden's beauty by dumping trash! So I planted those bombs to flood DenCity! QuickMan is in my PET, so you think you can stop him for activating the bomb?!" "What?! You're QuickMan's operator from the Zero Virus incident?! And I thought you were a nice guy when you sent me that email! Me and MegaMan will stop you!! Jack in! MegaMan, execute!" Lan jacked into Dave's PET, the Mew Mews along with the Angel Troupe jacked in as well.
Inside, The crew was at the start. "Now is a good time to activate the new ability. Ready Milfeulle?" Lan asked her. Milfeulle nodded. "Ready!" "Angel Link! Angel Sword!" Both MegaMan and Milfeulle shouted out as Milfeulle transformed into the Angel Sword and MegaMan grabbed it. "Let's do this!" Zoey raised her fist in the air. The crew fought their way thru viruses and the exploding paths, after 15 minutes, they reached the disarm system with QuickMan. QuickMan noticed them and smirked.
"Well, well, well! We meet again, MegaMan! I'm just about to activate the dentate program! Fighting you will be my greatest revenge! What about you, Dave?" QuickMan asked his operator by the screen. "Go ahead. Those kids are no match for your speed. I upgraded you for this battle!" Dave grinned evilly. "You are cold and heartless…" Mint said angrily as she glows blue and is transforming into energies and they went to MegaMan's shoes, after 5 seconds, MegaMan's shoes now have blue wings. "Another Angel Link power!" Ranpha shouted in awe. "Lan! Get ready!" MegaMan shouted out to his partner. "Right! MegaMan!" "QuickMan!" "Battle routine, set!" Both Lan and Dave shouted out. "Execute!" Both MegaMan and QuickMan shouted out.
(MegaMan.EXE VS QuickMan.EXE, Round 2)
"I'm too fast!" QuickMan yelled as he speeds towards MegaMan ready to attack. MegaMan smirked and yelled out "Angel Speed Shoes Overdrive!" He speeds towards QuickMan. "What?!!" Both QuickMan and Dave shouted out in disbelief as MegaMan rapidly kicks QuickMan in the stomach. "Grr! Take this! Quick Boomerang!" QuickMan fired a V boomerang at MegaMan, but he dodged it with ease. Both MegaMan and QuickMan were rushing towards each other yelling out their war cry. MegaMan slashed QuickMan with the Angel Sword 3 times. QuickMan fired multiple Quick Boomerangs at MegaMan, but thanks to the Angel Speed Shoes, he was able to dodge them with ease. "Take this! Angel Sword Cross Drive!" MegaMan made an M shaped sword cross on QuickMan, thus defeating him!
"We did it!" Zoey cheered. "Don't get too cocky! Deleting me was a huge mistake!" QuickMan yelled. "Uh oh!" Vanilla gasped. "What do you mean?!" Lan demanded. "Hehehe! QuickMan is the denotation program! Now we'll all drown together!! QuickMan!" Dave ordered. "My life has sweet… and Quick! 3… 2… 1…" QuickMan screamed as he begins to explode. "It's BombMan all over again!!" Zoey yelled in fear. "MEEEEGGAAAMMAANNNN!!!" Lan screamed as a white light filled the area, but after 4 seconds, nothing happen. "What the?! Wasn't the dam supposed to burst?!!" Dave yelled angrily. "Wait a minute, then that means!" Lan grinned as the white light disappeared and ProtoMan appeared, he must have deleted QuickMan.
"ProtoMan! Reporting for duty!" ProtoMan smiled at Bridget who blushed. Milfeulle and Mint reverted back to their normal forms. "Saved in the nick of time!" Mint sighed. "Yeah. Milfeulle nodded in agreement. "ProtoMan!" MegaMan said happily as Chaud appeared in his screen. "Lan! If you're alive, say something!" Chaud yelled. "Chaud!" Lan gave him the thumb up. "Made it just in time! ProtoMan and I took off that bomb back at the dam, so QuickMan went out with a whimper, not a bang." Chaud smirked.
"How a bunch of kids can foiled the future head of Gospel, IQ 170?!!" Dave said in disbelief.
"These kids just kicked your butt. Speedy Dave, on suspicion of attempting bombing, I arrest you on my authority as an Official NetBattler! You tell us more about yourself and Gospel!" Chaud shouted. "Grr!! I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you meddling kids!" Dave yelled in defeat. ProtoMan jacked out, MegaMan and the crew jacked out as well.
(30 minutes later.)
Ribbita was interviewing Lan on his heroics today. "World renowned heroes, Lan Hikari and MegaMan.EXE have saved millions of lives. So, Lan, how does it feel to be a hero?"
Lan rubbed his head nervously. "Well, I couldn't have done it without Chaud's help."
"But Chaud is nowhere to be seen." Mint reminded him.
"That's right! Official NetBattler, Eugene Chaud is nowhere to be seen. Who is the netmafia known as Gospel! Could they be the next WWW? Stay tune for more info!" Ribbita did her pose. "Aww! I wanted to be a star in the news!" Ranpha complained, everyone, including Ribbita laughed at the remark. Okuden Valley and DenCity is saved! But what is Gospel's next attack?
(Meanwhile…)
"Hmm… First Arashi and now Dave… Well, they were just the bottom ranks, anyway. The world will soon know the true might of Gospel! …Dark! Your time to shine has arrived at last!"
"Pay me enough and I'll do whatever you want me to do."
"I like that! If you come across these brats in the Net," an image of MegaMan, the Mews and the Angel Troupe appeared in the darkness. "DELETE THEM!!!"
"Yes sir. ShadowMan is also looking for some payback with that blue NetNavi and his friends."
ShadowMan is about to make his return, can MegaMan and his friends stop him?
