Chapter 13: [Universe C] Harnessing the Power Act I
- Harnessing the power of darkness is quite difficult but if one faces their inner demons with bravery and result, they can conquer, because those with a weak heart will be consumed. -
Netto yawns in the hotel room after a good talk with Sapphire and Draco last night. "Morning," Henshin greeted, "Did you get a good rest?" "Yup," Netto stretched, "that was a great nap, the beds were very cozy." The table was fitted with pancakes, bacon, and eggs that were enough for three people. "So Netto have you found out what your Draco power does?" Henshin asked as he sits on the chair next to the brunette. "Not fully," Netto said, "I still have so much to learn about it. I mean I have my Draco Form but I believe there are so many stages to it." "Well, what stages have you achieve?" Frost said. "For one thing, the first stage is that my eyes glow red as a sign of warning and my powers get a slight boost. I also learn some dark type moves like Dark Pulse, which can almost take the entire field. Plus I gain a new sword called the Alpha Sword which is based on Draco's Scythe. Though I can get a bit aggressive and apprehensive so be cautious when near me. The second stage is my Draco Form though, my appearance is a mixture of a custom Navi's and a human's. I mean I have emblems covering my ears and chest and some armor, gloves, and boots like a Net Navi but have loose clothing like a Human's." "So are you going to train to harness that power?" Henshin asked.
Netto nods at Henshin's question, "I'm going to train a lot. I know that might sound boring and tedious, but I don't then I might lose control of that power." "That is very concerning," Frost noted, "But wait doesn't that choker keep that power in check?" "Well, it is very useful," Netto said, "it helps us find the two of the four portal keys, but what if comes off by accident?" "Netto, you know that's highly impossible," Frost points out, "You know I think Draco may have a clue on who is compatible with Draco's power?"
'Draco?' Netto mentally asked.
'Well, when you were giving your power away like free candy, I was mentally taking notes on who was compatible.' Draco added, 'You would be surprised at who's the suitable partner for you.'
Netto looks back to all the people he lent his power to. Bulleta and Stacy were likely candidates since both of them can handle darkness. Ruby and Frost were next, for Ruby it makes more sense since she uses fire powers and Draco does use powers similar to fire powers. The last candidate was Draga since she has knowledge of the Legend but does she even know how to harness Draco or Purity's powers?
'Okay, I give up,' Netto mentally thought, 'Who is it?'
'R.C.,' Draco flatly said.
Netto's eyes widen at Draco's revelation, 'R.C.? Why her?'
'I'm not too sure, but she's compatible to harness my power," Draco noted, 'Hell, she might even have a form similar to yours, but slightly weaker than yours.'
'So R.C.-chan can have a Draco Form just weaker than mine?' Netto repeated to understand.
'Yup,' Draco said, 'But we should tell her that when we meet up with the others.'
A few hours later, Netto had regrouped with the others including Team OverDrive. They were recounting the events last night. They were in a park not far from the hotel. The park was pretty big as it was about the size of a football field. There was a playground in which some kids were playing or flying a kite. A huge water fountain carved in marble and a huge flower garden that covered almost two/thirds of the entire park.
While the rest of the group was occupied Netto had asked R.C. about something alone. "Hey, R.C. is okay if we talk somewhere private?" Netto asked. "Huh, sure?" R.C. said. Netto leads R.C. to a spot where the others can't hear them. "So, what's wrong? Why did you want to speak privately to me about?" R.C. asked. "It's about Draco's power," Netto said, "Draco explained this morning that you were compatible to have a Draco form." "What, me?" R.C. said after hearing this revelation, "So what are we going to tell the others? Later, I don't want the Kazami twins and their friends to freak out yet but we'll tell Draga-chan first."
Later Netto and R.C. told Draga about the possibility of others that can have Draco Form and/or Purity Form despite not being vessels themselves. "Well, it is possible," Draga said, "Although I thought was only rumors since there was no real proof since most of the records were lost by time." "So is there a way I can obtain the Draco Form?" R.C. asked. "I'm not too sure about that," Draga said, "Since Netto did lend some of Draco's Power for protection from the Dark Power then it is possible to do some training to harness the power and gain a Draco Form of your own." "Really? So it is possible?" Netto said. "Yes," Draga nodded, "However we can't know for sure unless with have concrete proof." "So, we'll try it?" R.C. suggested. Draga nods at R.C.'s suggestion, "Yes, but Netto still has a lot of unlimited power that he has yet to yield. Have you been training?" "Um, in secret," Netto said scratching his head, "To be blunt I've been training in my dreams but not in real life." "That needs to change," Draga commented, "since fighting in the real world is different in your dreams since you can manipulate things in your mind." "But where are we going to train?" Netto said, "I mean if we can try at night but the commotion could attract some unwanted attention." Draga then had an idea, "We could ask the twins to see if they have a training facility. That way we can't attract anyone suspicious." "Good idea," R.C. said. "I agree, that's perfect!" Netto added.
Unbeknownst to them, Aponi was eavesdropping on their conversation. "A training facility huh?" She muttered, "Perfect now time to make the first move." R.C. unknowingly picks up on Aponi before she moves away. "What's wrong, R.C.?" Draga said. "I thought I heard someone," R.C. noted. Netto quickly dismissed R.C.'s claim, "You are probably hearing things come on we have to tell the others."
As Netto, R.C., and Draga left their hiding spot, Aponi breathes a sigh of relief, "Whew, I was for certain I was going to be caught by that blue-haired girl. Now to contact the others for a course of action." She takes out her yellow phone-like device and presses a few buttons to call. It rings once or twice before being picked up. "Hello?" It was Jessica's voice that answers the call. "Jessica it's me," Aponi said before smirking, "I found the alleged Aaron, now we need time to strike." "Hold on let me speak with the boss," Jessica said before Aponi gives the phone to their superior. "Boss?" Aponi said. At the other end of the line was a male voice but the pitch and speech altered to avoid identification, "Aponi did you find the Aaron? Yeah, I overheard three kids talking about Draco. I'm not too sure about that Netto kid being Draco's Vessel but sharing powers and gain form similar to the vessels? That seems interesting to me." "Hmmm, I believe that Dimension D's residents have some information on this," her distorted superior's voice notes, "Come back to base Aponi, I have another mission for you." "Roger," Aponi replied, "I'll be there in an hour." Aponi ends the call and strolls out of the forest. Meanwhile, another woman was hiding behind the trees after Aponi was out of her sight.
She had black hair tied into a ponytail with a purple band and lavender eyes. She was wearing a simple, lavender hoodie jacket over a black T-shirt, she wore faded jean shorts with black leggings and lavender boots. Her eyes narrow at Aponi's plan and shook her head, "Sister, I know your intentions are bad but I will stop you. For her sake and your friends." She then takes out a group picture that shows younger versions of her and Aponi that look like they were in elementary or junior high. However, there were also other people in the photo.
A girl that was about the same age as them with her hair in two tones (pink and yellow) and pink eyes. She was wearing a pink T-shirt with lemon patterns and overalls, knee-length socks and pink shoes.
Another girl that was slightly older with white hair and green highlights, and dark green eyes. She wore a light blue vest over a white T-shirt with black diamond-shaped patches, black skirt, and white and magenta boots that reach her lower calves. Above the right breast was a badge of her Navi Emblem (an upside-down, thin black triangle, two light blue triangles, and a blue semi-circle).
Besides her was a Net Navi that looks like a youthful teenage girl. Her helmet was azure with two horns (one white and slightly curved and the other was thinner and lavender) with translucent cranberry ribbons on both sides. Her hair was about shoulder length and white, a blue vest that covers her upper chest, canary yellow diamond-shaped shoulder pads and elbow-length gloves, a white belt with rosemary rouge gems at the hips and over the knee white boots with rosemary rouge patterns and pink gems.
Finally was a boy about 5 or six years old with shoulder-length black hair with green highlights and green eyes were darker than the albino girls. He wore a brown collar T-shirt, black shorts, and dark green shoes.
"Oh Chaya," the woman said as her finger traces towards the albino haired, human girl, "Things have changed a lot since you were gone. Keitai has taken good care of your Navi but both miss you dearly. Cindy's in college but Aponi has gone down a dark path. I hope things are not too late for her."
At OverDrive HQ, Portal Key A was being overlooked by various scientists. One of them was the head scientist Dr. Hideyoshi, father of Seimai and Roudou and creator of Buster and Blade. He was very fascinated with the Portal Key behind him were Draga, R.C., and Netto. "Excuse me, Dr. Hideyoshi?" Draga asked. "Yes, what do you kids want?" Hideyoshi replied. "Can we borrow your training facilities? We want to practice for the upcoming battle?" "Oh sure," Hideyoshi said, "But I have a question do you have Net Navis?" "No, we don't but our friend Natsu does, why?" Draga replied.
"Well, there's something we've been testing I believe we need some Navi-less people to test them," Hideyoshi said. "Why do you need Navi-less people for?" Draga added. "We are testing a cyber-suit program in which people can fight viruses in the real world," Hideyoshi explained. "Is it similar to Cross Fusion?" Netto said with curiosity. "Somewhat," Hideyoshi continued, "If this succeeds then it will be a huge breakthrough. However, there's a reason why we need Navi-less people. You see when we were testing it with people with Net Navis they were reports of having some sort of connection with their Net Navis. When the tester installs the program into their PET in which their Navi was in at the time of testing, they had some sort of link with them. When they got hurt the Navi also feels the pain but only a tingling sensation. However, once they realize is that the operator is hurt or in danger, they will step in and protect them. But once the testing is over, the Net Navis were overprotective of their Operator and refuse to participate. We were shocked at the Navis show no signs of this after the cyber-suit test." "So the reason you need Navi-less subjects is so that no Net Navis will feel any weird effects?" R.C. concludes. "Correct," Hideyoshi confirmed, "Since you don't have Net Navis this will make the cybersuit program much easier for us to conduct more tests."
"Lovely, I adore being a guinea pig," R.C. said with obvious sarcasm. "Now don't worry we won't subject you to extreme tests," Hideyoshi assured, "We will give you an Empty PET for testing results and if you successfully use it, you will keep it as your own." "That's wonderful news!" Draga said in excitement, "Let's tell the others this."
After Netto, Draga and R.C. gather the team plus the twins, their Navis, Mei, Rory, Luna, and Lunette for a meeting. "So dad why did you ask Netto, Draga, and R.C. to fetch us?" Seimai asked. "Well, do you remember that cybersuit program we were testing a few weeks ago?" Hideyoshi said. "You mean that one with weird side effects to the Net Navis?" Roudou answered. "Yes," Hideyoshi said, "If we use people that don't have a Net Navi then that could prevent any more unnecessary variables. As for protection, Buster, Blade, Rory and Lunette will be the ones just in case of any complications when virus busting."
The people that we're testing it were Netto, Ruby, Frost, Angel, Felica, Draga, R.C., Bulleta, Stacy, Ciel, Aile, Aimi, Briana and Henshin that ones that volunteered. All of them were holding an empty Touch PET in their hands. Inside was the cybersuit program. "So if we activate it, we can become NetNavis?" Netto called out. "Yes," Hideyoshi said over the intercom, "Touch the CyberSuit Program and scream CyberSuit Program Activate!" Natsu and Mira were the only ones that were not there. Natsu will try out later but she decides to watch to take notes.
"CYBER SUIT PROGRAM ACTIVATE!" The testers cry out and they were engulfed in a white bubble.
Netto was wearing some armor and notes that something must have gone wrong. His bandana was converted into a helmet with a blue visor covering his eyes. The sleeves of his undershirt were gone to make room for his orange and black, elbow-length gloves with white rings and red gems. His socks were longer as they were barely reaching his knees and orange boots that match the design of his gloves. He also retains his yellow scarf.

Her bag was now a cyan waist bag with Angel's emblem on it. Her emblem was a blue heart on a black background with the emblem ring being yellow.
R.C.'s was the most interesting as that she looks like a female version of Rockman. Her helmet was almost identical to his with the rectangles much smoother and rounder and the blue colors were much lighter and pastel. She also had the shoulder pads and backpack (in a lighter color). Her bodysuit was lighter to Rockman's but her gloves were darker in color. She still had on her dark blue skirt and her boots were a different design with yellow rings and some patches of azure and yellow. What was most interesting was her emblem was the same as Rockman's. "Whoa," Netto said, "You do look like Rockman. It's creepy..." R.C. just stares at her Navi appearance.

She still retains her white trenchcoat. Her socks were in two layers, lavender and white with purple patterns similar to her fishnet stockings.

Aimi's solid pink helmet was similar to Netto's as her long pink hair with bangs was seen flowing around and had a lime green visor to match her eyes. Her clothes were changed drastically as her sleeveless shirt was changed into a T-shirt with pink cuffs and the collar was designed similar to an arrangement of a sailor ribbon. Her skirt was shortened with the hems jagged with a pink border. Her collar was changed into white to contrast her black bodysuit.

Her legs were in different colors, the upper thighs were black were the lower were white. Her emblem was a white butterfly with dark red online on a black background that was surrounded by a yellow ring.
Everyone was in awe of their transformations, some like them while the others either had mixed feelings or dislike them. "Alright everyone, all the Cyber Suits are ready, let's begin some practice battles."
A screen suddenly pops up in front of Netto that shows his stats.
On the semi-transparent, cyan-colored screen shows his stats. On the left was a silhouette of him in his Cyber Suit and then something caught his eyes. His stats were slightly lower than a Standard NetNavi's. The stats show him his Health, Attack, Defense, and Speed. His health was slightly above average above a Standard NetNavi's. His attack was the second-highest, the defense was poorly low but his speed was very definitely high. Below showcases what Navi he was, a Support Navi. Lastly, on top of the silhouette was his name with a blank name underneath that was suppose to be his NetNavi Name and on the right was the type: Elec. The brunette sighs, he wishes he was a Battle NetNavi like Rockman guess beggars can't be choosers.
Ruby was curious after seeing Netto's and checks out her stats.

"Interesting," Natsu jots down, "Most of the people's stats average is between average and high. The only low in terms of stat is Ami." Ami whined at her stats being the lowest in the groups. "Interesting, the Support Navis have more human clothes than the Battle Navis," Roudou notes. "Maybe because they don't battle as much as the combative ones there's no need for combat."
"Alright, it's time for combat." Hideyoshi announced, "Combat Navis go in front while Support Navis go at the back. Here's how it works in battle, the combat Navis are position in front to fight the viruses while Support Navis are at the back to reinforce them. Now, who would want to go first?"
Some of them were hesitant but in the end, Ruby, Frost, R.C., Aile, Netto volunteered. R.C. was in the middle left, Ruby was on very left, Frost was positioned in the middle right and Aile at the very right. Netto was positioned behind R.C. and Frost.
A few viruses pop out, some Mettools, Garus and a Fishie. "Now here's how it works," Hideyoshi instructed, "Combat Navis will use their moves to fight the viruses, but Support Navis have a different use in battle. Support Navis will help boost your stats and help take care of those pesky viruses especially those that your teammates are weak against." Netto swiftly goes out in front and raises his arms, thunderbolts sporadically appear raining down on the viruses. He ends it with firing a few bullets from his Buster Guns and with a swift of his Thunder Sword. Some of the viruses were paralyzed or flinched. Ruby uses her Fire Specter Move, R.C. and Frost use their Busters, and Aile uses one of her new moves called Swift Kick which delivers a sudden blow to the opponent. '
"Alright, the test is done did everyone get it?" Hideyoshi said. "Yeah, but would Support Navis get damaged?" Draga asked. "They do," Hideyoshi said over the intercom, "They are more vulnerable than their combat counterparts. For example, if Netto gets hit by a Mettool attack, it could take 1/3 of his health. While Combat Navis take less damage, so be careful when choosing which Support Units to bring when fighting powerful enemies. That is all for today."
"Alright!" Aimi jumped in excitement, "Now those T.I.F.F. bullies will be easier to handle with these new abilities." Henshin agrees as well. "You guys," Briana said, "We should probably use code names." "Huh, code names what for?" Aimi asked. "Probably to keep our identities hidden," Stacy deducts, "I mean some of the T.I.F.F Agents recognize Netto as the Aaron and probably recognize most of us as potential targets since we are pretty close to him." Netto felt a ping of guilt, he didn't want to endanger his new friends but it was pretty much unavoidable since they are involved in it.
"Alright, then my code name will be Angix!" Ruby exclaimed. "Angix?" Frost said confused, "What kind of name is that?" "It is a mixture of the words Pheonix and Angel since I am designed as an Angel but have the powers of a Pheonix Bird."
"Fair enough," Frost said, "I'll be Mountainman."
"I'll be Alvina," Draga decided, "Since I'm not a good battler I'll still support you guys."
"I'll be Call," Henshin said, "Since my abilities seem to call out viruses."
"I'll be AssassinGirl," Bulleta said, "Since I can deal a lot of damage and take out hoards of viruses."
"I'll be Nasira," Felica said, "That means helper and supporter since I am a Support Navi."
"I'll be AerialGirl," Angel decided.
"I can't choose my codename," Aimi said. "How about Vida?" Ciel suggested. "Nah, not zingy enough," Aimi said, "How about Zurie?" "Zurie?" Ciel said, "I get it since white is one of your favorite colors and since it means also lovely?" "Yup, that's it!" Aimi chirped, "I always like that name for some reason. What about yours, Ciel?"
"I'll be Azurine," Ciel decided, "It seems to fit my color scheme."
"What about you Stacy?" Henshin asked.
"I'll be Bodila," Aile said, "Since that means fighter."
"I'll just go with Beryl," Stacy said.
"I will be named Kallima," Briana said.
"What about you, R.C. and Netto?"
"How about Gigaman and Rochelle?" Draga suggested. "Rochelle, that sounds similar to Rockman," Netto said, "What do you think R.C.-chan?" "I like it," R.C. said, "It's better than my real name." "Huh? What about your real name?" The brunette boy said confused. "You probably don't want to know," R.C. said abashed, "It's embarrassing."
That night at one of the training facilities, Netto and R.C. are with Natsu and Mira. In the observation room, Draga, Ruby, Frost and Kazami Twins and their friends were present, everyone else went back to the hotel to rest. "So we're here to see Draco's power?" Mei asked. "Yes," Draga said, "But I want to keep this information a secret who knows who could be eavesdropping on us, the T.I.F.F Organization is already aware that Netto is Draco's Vessel so we must keep him safe. The fate of the four dimensions depends on it."
Natsu had a pink and purple TS PET and activates the Cyber Suit Program. She glows and was surrounded by a pink ball of light, a few seconds later she appears as a Battle Navi.
She wore a helmet with the top pink, the middle white with jagged lines and bottom lavender, a pink visor covers her eyes. Her armor was pink with a white zigzag collar and a lavender skirt. There were white stripes wrapped around her arms and wrist long pink gloves. She had leg armor with pink, lavender, white stripes that covers her lower legs and pink and black boots. Her emblem was a pink circle on a black background with the ring being yellow.

"Whoa, this is the power of the Cyber Suit Program?" She cried in pure awe, "Now let's see..." She waves her arms and pink energy starting to form. She creates a small pink ball of energy. "Ah! It still works!" She said in relief and wonder.
"Alright Netto, let's begin the transfer," Draco reminded from the resides of his mind. Netto nodded and releases some of Draco's energy from his hands. The ball of energy goes inside of R.C. and she felt a sudden surge of power. She was surrounded by a ball of black and red flames.
Her hair was now a midnight blue and her eyes were a light brown. She wore a black bodysuit with a grey armor similar to an open vest with red flames design with white and shredded borders. There were silver sharp, shoulder pads and black gloves with two silver rings, a red stripe that glows in the dark and a wing attached to both of them. Her black skirt had red flame patterns as well and black boots with silver rings and red gems above the sole and wings attached to the ankles. Her ear emblems had Draco's Symbol but with a silver border and chest emblem still retains her original emblem with the yellow replaced with silver. Her blue stripes had become red and light pink. "So this is the power of the Draco Form?" R.C. said when she looks at her form.
"Amazing!" Mei comments.
"I didn't know Draco's power can do that!" Luna adds.
"Alright, R.C," Draga said over the intercom, "Let's practice with the new form. Send in the viruses."
R.C. starts to levitate. "Interesting," she noted, "I can fly when I ever feel like it." "Looks like in Battle Network terms, she has automatic Air Shoes," Roudou deducts. "Alright, time to attack," R.C. said. She instinctively raises her arms and they start to glow. With one swipe of her arm, a few of the Mettools were instantly deleted. "Whoa," Ruby said, "She just swiped them in one fell sweep!" "Now, what else can she do?" Frost added. R.C. flies up and fires a ball of dark red energy. It deletes one of the Garuus. "Whoa, so she can use Fire-type attacks!" Ruby said excitedly. R.C. then lets her hands out and a weapon appears. It appears to be a scythe, that was black with a glowing red blade. "Cool weapon," Netto complimented.
'It's my scythe,' Draco mentally said.
'What!' Netto mentally said, 'How come R.C. gets one and I don't?'
'Patience,' Draco said, 'You will get yours soon once you master your powers some more.'
Netto pouted at Draco's answer, 'You're no fun..'
'And you have no patience,' Draco mocked.
"Alright R.C!" Ruby cried from the intercom, "That was pure awesome!"
"What else can R.C. do?" Roudou noted. "Who knows," Seimai said, "Any way that Draco form is very awesome!"
R.C.'s scythe gives out a soft glow when she raises up.
'Now Netto,' Draco cried.
'Now what?' Netto mentally said confused.
'When R.C.'s Weapon lightens up it's your cue to transfer your power to hers,' Draco instructed.
Netto was still confused about this, 'But how do I do that? What if I accidentally electrocute her?'
'Trust me, Netto,' Draco said, 'Just send a little electricity and watch the magic happen.'
'Okay,' Netto said.
Netto uses his Thunder Sword and taps it with R.C.'s Weapon, in a blink of an eye R.C.'s scythe becomes yellow with electricity flowing through. "Amazing," R.C. said looking at the new power taking place. "Netto, how did you do that?" "Draco told me," Netto replied, "Now try it out!" R.C. waves her scythe and with a quick swipe, the viruses were easily deleted.
"That's amazing!"
"I didn't know, she can do that?"
"Can she only use it?"
'Netto,' Draco mentally said, 'This is one of the many abilities of the Draco Form. It uses the powers of others in order to power itself up. Your Draco Form can do this as well. Your allies can also do this but only if there is Dark Power in the area.'
'Okay, thanks Draco,' Netto mentally noted.
"Alright, R.C," Natsu said, "Let's battle."
Netto took his position at the back behind R.C. while Mira took her place behind Natsu.
"Pink Blast!" Natsu cried as she fires a blast of psychic energy. R.C. easily dodges it by flying into the air at high speeds. Natsu sends another ball but R.C. avoids it and uses her wings to deal with damage to her. "Whoa," Natsu said, "That power..." "Natsu-chan! Are you alright?" Mira said with obvious worry. "I'm fine, Mira," Natsu assured, "I was caught off guard." R.C. uses her wings but Natsu blocks it with her Barrier move, but as soon as she lets it down. R.C. saw an opening and easily uses her Wing Attack twice. Her attacks made Natsu fly up into the air before crashing down to the ground. "Natsu!" Mira cried. "I think that's enough," R.C. said, "Natsu has taken enough damage." "I can go on," Natsu insisted. "No, you can't," R.C. said, "The Draco Form is probably too powerful and even if we did continue your Navi will step in and protect you."
"R.C.'s right Natsu-chan besides I don't want to put you any more danger," Mira insisted. "Alright," Natsu said disappointed with this situation, "We'll end it."
The simulation ends and R.C. and Natsu revert back to normal. "Netto-kun," Natsu said, "I'm sorry but can we try again tomorrow, I need some rest." "Sure, I don't mind," Netto said, "We'll continue tomorrow night."
- Anahi Sector [South Side] Arika Hotel -
R.C, Draga, and Ruby visit Netto, Frost and Henshin's hotel room, relaxing and eating homemade tacos that Henshin made in the living room. "So, R.C. now has a new form," Ruby said, "You're so lucky, R.C." "You're not having any negative effects?" Draga asked. "No, I feel perfectly fine," R.C. replied.
"So, Netto, how does one receive a Draco or Purity Form if they're not the chosen vessel of Draco or Vessel?" Henshin asked. "Well, it's hard to explain in fact Draco or Purity themselves can tell if they are worthy of a form," Draga said, "There a few cases in which the original vessel cannot handle all the power of with Draco and Purity even with limitations and would need a second one as an outlet just in case things go out of control. Although it is very rare if there were more than one vessel to balance their power." "Then why would Draco choose R.C, as that second vessel the bigger question," Frost said. "Well, for someone that is not the chosen vessel of Draco or Purity, you must gain both Draco's/Purity's Trust and their respective Vessel's Trust. Gaining the vessel's trust is easier while the Dragon's trust is much harder," Draga explained, "Though I'm also skeptical on why R.C. is on." "Well, I think I can explain," Netto said, "I think it's because R.C. resembles my Navi Rockman." "Rockman?" Frost said, "Your Net Navi?" "Well, that can partially explain it but I don't think a resemblance to someone Netto is familiar with would cause R.C. to gain a Draco Form," Draga said. "Well, R.C. is our friend," Ruby said, "I guess Draco trusts her enough to use the form." "Could be," Henshin said.
Ruby looks at the clock on her red T.S. P.E.T., "Whoa, it's 12:45? We better get to bed. Anyway, Netto can't wait to see your form tomorrow! Night!" "Well we should better retire for the night," Draga said. Draga, Ruby, and R.C. all left the room to go back to their respective rooms. "We should get some sleep, too." Henshin said, "We have a big day tomorrow." Netto and Frost agreed and retired for the night.
A/N: And it's finally finished, next act. Water Crisis Act Two, Netto and pals visit Anahi Sector's East Side in which only the rich can afford to live. Suddenly there have been reports of pink water leaking into the water system but who is the culprit? Plus one of the rare male operator - female Net Navi duos appear.
