[Flash In the Dark]
"Wow this Control Core is really dark!" Geo said
"Probably because the Wizard in here tampered with it, we won't be able to see much."
"Even with these goggles I can barely see" Geo referred to the visor on his head.
"Be careful, viruses could pop out at any time, if they do just use an AOE battle card and deal with them" Mega mentioned
"You got it, now lets pierce through" Geo said as he started walking forward
Megaman couldn't actually fall off the ledge on the EM Road naturally so they just kept walking and turning and walking and turning for about a minute.
THUNK
"Another virus!?" Geo asked
"Please wait! I'm a Hertz!" The voice said
"Oh, *pat pat pat, you sure do feel like one" Geo outlined the figure with his hands
"Well anyways, you gotta help us! A mean wizard showed up and separated me and my friends, so now we can't light up the place!"
"So how do we find them?"
"I can glow however just a little around us, so once you get all of us together we can light up the whole area and take you to the bad guy!"
"Can't you just take us there now?"
"No... the bridge won't activate unless all of us are there..."
"Yeesh, always so complicated " Geo shook his head but picked up the Hertz and navigated the darkness.
A Hertz was found under a bunch of tapes(?) in the CC.
"Thanks you really saved me!" Geo grabbed the Hertz by the halo and hoisted it up.
"Well how many of you are left?" Geo asked
"Oh just one more! You should be able to find him easier with the two of us!"
"Hmm, well let's move on"
The last Hertz was found surrounded by viruses.
"Kid!"
"Let's go Mega!"
Megaman made quick work of the viruses with his buster, they were no match for his experience.
"A swift victory!" Geo shouted
"Uhhh... kid what are you doing?"
"Just yelling like a victorious line, morale you know!"
"Sure... we haven't beaten the boss yet so... save it for later"
"Thanks for helping us three Megaman! You're so cool!"
"Uhh... shucks... could you guys open that path now?"
"Sure will!"
The three Hertz glowed and the pathway opened.
"Good luck!" They said
"Thanks... now, shall we go?" Geo asked
"Of course!" Mega responded
Geo and Mega headed towards the enemy ahead.
A bulb on his head, arms, and chest, this Wizard was very bulb themed...
"It seems you made it this far, I am FlashMan, burn this name into your eyes because it'll be the last thing you remember!" FlashMan proclaimed and went to attack Geo.
"Hmph! This is nothing!" Geo dodged the attack with ease
"It seems you have good vision, lets change that!" FlashMan did as his name implied, he flashed Geo with his bulbs.
"Ahck!"
"Hey kid don't look away!"
"Kinda hard when he is GLOWING!" Geo retorted
"Flash!" FlashMan did a flash with his flashbulbs and flashed behind Geo... in a flash!
"Damn! BattleChip WideSword!" Geo did a 360 slash to try and hit FlashMan.
"I'm not stupid!" FlashMan jumped up and kicked Geo.
"Urgh! Fighting blind sucks!" Geo said with his eyes squinted
"Geo do that thing when you fought that copy! You know, close your eyes and feel or something!?"
"Ugh easier said than done Mega!"
"Just do it!"
"Fine!" Geo stood still and closed his eyes
"Giving up are you!?" FlashMan yelled
SLAAAASH!!!
"AGH!" FlashMan clenched his hand.
Geo parried FlashMan's attack and countered, he hit him in one of his bulbs
"You got him kid! Hit him in another bulb and you will be able to see again!"
"..." Geo didn't respond, he was focusing on his hearing as much as possible
"(To the left? No, he's tricking me! It's actually...)"
Geo dodged back slightly and turned his body, barely avoiding the attack from the above. Then in a fluid motion he broke both the bulb on his other arm and head at once.
"AGHHHHH!"
"Darn, I guess it hurts a lot for him kid... keep it up!" Mega commented
"You... you!!"
Geo opened his eyes and walked up to the weakened FlashMan.
"This is it!" Geo was about to deal the final blow
"You... cocky bastard! FINAL FLASHHH!" FlashMan got really really bright, even from his broken bulbs and exploded!
"Agh! Barrier!" Geo put up a small barrier to tank the attack.
Even with the barrier, self destruct moves are no joke.
"Ugh... haaaaah...haaaaaah" Geo was pretty injured, he wasn't close to death but it definitely hurt.
"You alright kid?"
"No! I feel like that self destruct did more than just hurt me..."
"Mentally scar you?"
"No. Whatever, let's just pulse out and check on everyone."
"Wait he dropped something!" Mega pointed out something shiny on the ground.
"hmmm" Geo picked it up, it was a weird crest with a diamond in the center, two horns up, and two ears or something to each side.
"A symbol of some sort?" Mega asked
"I hope not, I'm sick of world destroying organizations man. I'll leave it to Ace." Geo transed out
--
"Uhhhhhnnn" The entire WBG crew was recovering, now they seemed to just have a mild headache.
"Now now, up, up, lets get everyone to the lounge." Geo was dragging everyone who was still dazed to the couches and rugs to lay them down.
"No please don't throw up this is a new shirt" Geo also had to avoid the people with more serious reactions...
"Nyehehehehe" Geo moved Sonia last because she seemed to be the most fine
"(She must be having a good dream)" Geo laid down Sonia next to him on the couch and relaxed.
"Hey kid, don't you think something's weird?"
"Hmm what?"
"Well, aren't you injured?"
"Mega, damage doesn't transfer from the EM World"
"Well uh... look at yourself."
Geo looked at his arms and legs and could see signs of scratches and bruises.
"...Damn it thats not normal."
"Lets be more careful from now on..."
"Right. " Geo relaxed and waited for everyone to recover.
Sonia, being the least affected, was also the first one to wake up.
"Hmmmm... Geo?"
Geo blinked his eyes open slowly "You're finally awake."
"Yeah, what happened?"
"Well..." Geo gave a recap of the situation.
"Hmm, so you wave changed without my permission again!" Sonia grabbed Geo
"Ahhh Sonia I didn't have a choice!!!"
"I don't care teehee! Now here's your punishment!" Sonia lied her head down on Geo
"(Here they go)" Mega thought
"(Psst... Lyra, lets leave the lovebirds alone, I think I'm gonna hurl)" He whispered
"(I think its quite cute you know. We should give them some privacy though)"
"(Whatever whatever, i just don't wanna see it)"
"Sonia..." Geo sighed and just accepted the burden on his legs.
"Hmm... is this not enough?"
"No! No! Anyways, when everyone wakes back up are we going to go?"
"Hmm, well we should probably at least make up a story to tell them" She said
"Hmm, a bad wizard showed up and stunned everyone and it ran out?"
"Seems good enough."
"Now we wait..."
The rest of the staff members woke up after 10 more minutes.
Geo and Sonia went with the story they said and the group was back together.
"Okay, well, I guess we should get that group photo!" Sonia said
"(This is the real reason you wanted to stay huh)" Geo sighed
Everyone lined up and a good photo was taken this time with no hiccups.
"Oh can you get me one with me and Geo?" Sonia asked Belle
"Sure!"
"3...2...1...Cheese!"
Sonia and Geo just did a nice pose together and took the result from the camera.
"You guys leaving now?" Belle asked
"Yeah, we came by just for this but it took a bit longer than expected."
"Well, you should probably change back now shouldn't you?" Belle referred to the clothes Sonia was wearing.
"Hmm, good point, Geo keep an eye out!" Sonia went in her room and Geo was once again on guard duty.
"So you saved us again" The Chief walked up
"Hmm... perhaps " Geo said
"Thanks. You're always welcome here, heck, with some training you could actually be a bodyguard here." He offered
"I'll keep your offer in mind" Geo responded
"Well, thanks again, I hope your relationship works out well, the only thing stopping you guys is the fans huh?"
"Well, all things in good time, I'm content with how things are right now. If things get out, they do, Sonia told me not to worry, so I should trust her."
"Good response. Ahhh, the springtime of youth." He muttered
"Its winter old man..."
"Heh... hahahaha!"
"hahahahaha!"
...And with that, the couple went back home after their surprisingly eventful day.
"Its a cute photo isn't it?" Sonia asked Geo when they were walking back.
"Of course it is. You're in it." Geo replied
--
A few days later...
"Sonia I'm gonna head to WAZA HQ, its about what happened at WBG"
"Hmm okay, I guess I'll come with. " Sonia replied
"Okay, lets just take the bus this time." Geo responded, since taking the WaveRoad, while faster, is more troublesome
Geo and Sonia took the bus to WAZA HQ. Even at Waza, there was snow piled up. Only the roofs seemed clean, most likely because they needed to send and receive signals.
"Geo?" Ace greeted Geo
"What's up Ace I just stopped by to tell you about something"
"Hmm... what is it?"
"Ok so here is what happened..."
--
"And he dropped this. It still is with me in the real world." Geo gave Ace the Crest.
"Uhm, Geo actually I-"
"That's about it Me and Sonia are going home. I'm sick of all these organizations, I'm sure with you guys on the case it wont be a problem." Geo replied
"Oh... yeah, you're on break right?"
"Yeah, and these bad things never happen during school always my breaks man..." Geo shook his head
"Yeah haha... that could suck."
"I want to ignore it but I can't if I know its serious. So keep me up to date will you" Geo said
"Yeah... I will..."
"Well anyways, I guess Sonia and I won't bother you any longer, see you around." Geo left after finishing his conversation
Geo and Sonia left the WAZA building after making a couple rounds greeting some of the people working there. They seemed all fine to see him however he felt like they were withholding something from him.
"(We should stop relying on him, he has his own life after all, and won't hesitate to use it.)" Ace thought internally as he waved goodbye.
--
"I wonder what Solo and Luna are doing..." Geo asked Sonia when they got back.
"Probably business things, Luna is inheriting a pretty important company and Solo is her bodyguard. " She replied
"Yeah, and they moved away and stuff so that she could go to her fancy college."
"How far are they?" Sonia asked
"Hmm... I think they lived in... C...Cyb...Cyber City? I could be wrong but I think thats where it is."
"Hmmm, I think thats the right place, its connected to ACDC apparently, I guess we could check it out if we took wave road."
"Yeah, theres a lot of time and not a lot to do..."
"So that's where we're going next? Cyber City?"
"Yeah let's go!" Geo propped up and got ready, Sonia followed suite. They both wave changed and were on the wave road.
"Well first we need to head over to ACDC right, that should be simple as soon as we reach the RailWave station." Sonia said
"Yes, it should be that easy then we take the bus to Cyber City." Geo added
The couple busted some viruses and saved some stray Hertz's until they reached the station. After which they were quickly transported to ACDC and de wave changed.
"Hmm, it appears the bus isn't working..." Sonia mentioned
"Hmm... because of snow, we will unfortunately not be doing bus rounds, sincerely, Station Manager." Geo read
"Well, we could turn back I guess..." Geo sighed
"Couldn't you two just take the WaveRoad?" Mega chimed in
"Oh, right." They said
Now back on the WaveRoad, they looked for a Hertz to give them directions. After receiving said directions, they headed off towards Cyber City, until a familiar face blocked the path.
"Hohoho... Megaman, its you!" The masked, top hat figure said.
"God dammit, it's you again. Don't you ever give up?" Geo asked
"No, I, Dark Phantom, will always be a road block for you!"
"Metaphorically and litteraly" Sonia sighed
"How did you even know we would be here? Like, we have never gone here!"
"My new master has given m-, huh, don't mention the plans, fine... Ahem, it is PURELY coincidence that we met however now that we have, I will defeat you!"
"This clown, fine! I guess I'll just have to beat some sense back into you." Geo gave an annoyed smile.
"A clown you say? No! I am a jester. A master of deception! And you... will witness my new power!" Dark Phantom enveloped himself with a dark aura.
"Here he comes!" Sonia shouted
"Wave Battle, Ride On!"
Side Story : FlashMan's Resurrection
"Hmm, I have been given a second chance by my lord. I suppose I should enjoy it while I can." He said As he surfed the WaveRoad
"Hmmm!? What's this?" He saw a collection of DVD's of old.
"200 years in the future and this series is still going strong, I only watched LizardSpheres, I never knew there was more to it!" FlashMan recalled a show he watched once.
"Hmm. LizardSpheresZ, seems cool! I guess I'll watch it."
Episode 1 : Attack of the Insaynes
"Wow this is interesting! What he died already I really liked FiveNine? Oh they're resurrection him! Wait, in a year more Insaynes are gonna attack wow I gotta watch one more!"
Episode 2 : Return of Vegetables
"This Cabbage dude and Vegetable seem really strong. Wow Cabbage got powned. Holy! FiveNine is a Insayne? His name is Carrot? They let Vegetable live
Episode 49 : Perfect Tissue
"Why would Vegetable let him power up? Oh he is using his special move!"
"You cocky bastard. Final Flasssshhhh!!!!" The screen said
"Flash! Hey thats like me!"
"FlashMan!" A voice rang
"Uh, Lord *!"
"What are you doing! I told you to start causing Havoc!"
"I'm sorry Lord! Please forgive me I will start right now!"
"These people are grouped up next to Camera's your abilities will prove useful here!"
"Yes right away!"
"(Damn, I need to finish that up quick so I can get back to watching, Final Flash is a cool move name!)" FlashMan thought as he headed towards the described location.
FlashMan never got to finish LizardSpheresZ...
