Chapter 7
Today on Superhuman Samurai Syber Squad
Jon here and it's just not my day. First something is up with my girlfriend, I swear someone is messing me at school and now I need to deal with power sucking virus Thing can't get any worse. Right?
Shelby was in her bedroom at her computer station watching old battles of the viruses taking on Servo. The monitor went dark and it appeared. "Reliving your past failures human?" Shelby took a deep breath. "I am trying to figure out where I went wrong. See if there is a weakness Servo has shown or any clear flaws I have not seen before," Shelby says. "The flaw is they are to weak. They fail to to defeat Servo." It says infuriated. "I know that is why I want to study and see what I am doing wrong exactly. After all you have made it clear things need to change," Shelby says trying to stay calm. "You are showing wisdom. I shall grant you a bit more time. However Shelby do not make me wait. I need my next virus. I grow tried." "I need to get to school. If I don't show up it will raise suspensions. Remember?" She asks knowing school was one of her few breaks from this thing that was in debt to.
Later at school
Shelby is at her locker between classes. Jon walks up behind her with a rose. "Surprise," he says once she turns around. "Jon how sweet. What is the occasion?" She asks. "Just wow I'm dating Shelby and she give a gift," Jon says with a smile. "You are great," She tells him. "So I was thinking this weekend you and I head down to the beach we do a little surfing," Jon suggested. "That sounds great... except this weekend might not work. My mom has invited some relatives over," She claims. The truth was she knew if she didn't come up with a virus that thing wouldn't be okay with her spending time with Jon. "I understand but hey how about tonight. Its a little early but this place by house has the best tacos and tonight they are doing a special on them. We have a little middle of the week date," Jon says.
"Jon I would love to but I have this big report due I have got to hunker down and work on it," Shelby claims. "Which class?" Jon asks. "History." "What report? We are in the same history class," Jon reminds her. "Right silly me I meant Spanish its a report on Spanish history. You know you have to write it in Spanish," Shelby says. "Oh those are the worst," Jon says. "They are. Jon I'd love to talk but I need to get to class," She says walking off. "See you soon," He says watching her leave. For him it's a free period and he's gotten permission to use the computer lab to do an assignment. A few other students were in the room as as he found an empty station and fishes the slip of paper he keeps his school log on information on.
As he logs on the screen flashes. "Jon," a voice says softly. He looks around the room to see who said that. The other students are across the room wrapped up in there own work while a few are talking to each other. Jon lets it go he must have misheard. He pulls up the slide show he is making for a presentation in science. He starts on the slide he left off last time. "What is this stuff?" Jon says seeing writing he didn't put on there. "Jon I..." the two words read. "Someone has to be trying to prank me," Jon think as he deletes the words. "Jon..." HE look around again but no one is around him.
Later at lunch
Jon sat at a table with his friends. "It wasn't me," Will says. "Maybe you did write as like some note to start there," Linda suggested. "Maybe you forgot to log off and someone was going to write something and they changed there mind," Rebecca adds. "But what me hearing my name?" Jon asks. "Didn't you think head something once a few weeks ago? Maybe there is just some common sound your mind thinks is saying Jon," Linda speculates. "Yeah like how people mess up song lyrics," William says. "I heard my name," Jon insisted. "Did you change your password if someone does have your info it could be real trouble," Linda points out. "Yeah well the school needs to know your password. But I put in a request to change it," Jon says. "Maybe you have been battling to many viruses lately and it's wearing you down," Will says.
"What wearing him down?" Shelby asks approaching the table with her trey of food. "Oh ah just how hard this presentation I have do do for Science is. It's wearing me down," Jon jumps in. "I can relate... my report is hard to power through," Shelby says. "Oh yeah that reminds me. Will I guess I can go to the wrestling show this weekend. Shelby has family visiting," Jon says. "Excellent you are going to love the main event. Its Cyber Punk vs. Dark Cyber Punk," Will says excitedly. "What?" Rebecca. "Cyber Punk is masked guy he's great. But the last few shows this guy wearing the same mask only black has been attacking him," Will explains. "An evil doppelganger," Shelby says. "Exactly," Will says none them getting they had just given Shelby an idea.
Back at Shelby's Home
Shelby was hard at work on her sketch pad. "I am glade to see you have found inspiration," It says. "And to think you once told me to stop going to school because it was a distraction. And if not for school I may not have gotten my idea. Allow me to introduce you to Dark Servo," she says holding up the pad. Its Servo only instead of the Silver and Red it's black and dark blue. "An interesting idea in theory," The program says. "In theory?" "Yes in theory however simply having a virus that looks like Servo simply won't defeat that troublesome program," It says. "I am not saying we just send an average virus. We give this thing all of Servo's powers and abilities. A perfect match," Shelby says. "And those is where the in theory part comes in. The amount of power it would take is beyond my reach."
"Why is it you brag about how powerful you are yet than you turn around and say you don't have enough power," Shelby complains. "There are other issues. Such as Servo's support programs." "Surely there is a way to block them," Shelby says. "Again something that would take a great deal of power." "What if send another virus to steal power that we can redirect?" Shelby asks. "An interesting idea but what virus do we use?" "Hold on that is the wonderful thing about inspiration when it gets going you can have many good ideas at once," Shelby says picking up her sketch pad and pencil. She opens to a page she had stopped working on a while go but hadn't fully finished and quickly gets to work. It doesn't take that long and she was done. "I think I shall call him Super Drain," Shelby declares.
The virus like a giant frog in the face but with a large tail. Instead of frog legs it can stand up has legs that look like an elephants. "But where to send it?" "Well we don't want Servo to know what we are doing until we have enough energy stored up," Shelby says thinking out loud. "As he always seems to do," The program says and if could feel emotions it was frustration. "Let's start small. Let target the local power plant. It generates enough energy would have be able to gather a large amount," Shelby suggested. "Excellent idea," the program says before bringing the virus to life and sending it the power plants computer systems. The virus quickly attacks they grid and starts to drain power. "Yes I can already feel it."
Collin's Mansion
Jon, Lina, Will, and Rebecca were in the pool playing playing a game of swim volleyball. Rebecca hit a shot sending the ball over the the net. Linda got it and hits right back over towards Jon who misses. "Game!" Will yells as he and Linda celebrate. "Smooth move hero," Rebecca jokes before splashing him. Jon splashes her right back. "Two out of three?" Linda asks. "I'm up for it?" Rebecca says. "I'm hungry," Will says. "Me too," Jon says as he and Will swim for the ladder. After drying off the guys head for the kitchen. "What is wrong this thing?" They hear Tanker yell as he slaps a microwave. "Something wrong Uncle Tank?" Jon asks. "This stupid microwave can't cook my burrito. The box say three minutes I've now tried it for six. Its like the thing is cooking on half power," Tanker complains. "That's strange dad bought it not that long ago," Jon says. The sound of yelling comes from the living room.
The three run into it. "Syd what is wrong?" Tanker asks. "I'm trying to upload this patch for a company I am working with. But its like the WiFi doesn't have the power to work right," Sydney says. Sam enters the room as Rebecca and Linda come in from the kitchen. "Jon I need to borrow your charger. Mine has gone bad I plugged in two hours ago I've gotten a nine percent charge," Sam says. "Wait the microwave, the computer, the charger something is up," Will declares. Sydney doesn't even have to told and starts to check for a mega virus. "There it is. We got a power sucker at the power plant." Jon grabs his guitar as the Servo program is called up. ""Let's Samuraize, guys!" He disappears into a ball of light and merges with the program. Servo heads for the infected system.
Jon/Servo lands and grows. Super Drain turns to face him. "This guy isn't going to win any beauty contest," Servo declares as he and the virus move around the system. Super Drain charges and swing one one its arms which Servo ducks and hits a superman punch. Flying side kick by Servo knock the mega virus down for a second. Back in the real world the team cheer. "Send this guy packing Jon," Will yells. Super Drain is back up and Servo charges but runs right into the swinging tail of virus. "Oh," Servo yells as he is knocked back. Another tail whip drives him back. The virus charges and locks into a wrestling match with Servo. Before opening it's mouth and it drains some energy from Servo. "AHHHH!" Servo yells.
At Shelby's place she smiles. "Excellent this energy taken from Servo will go a long way towards powering your doppelganger." "Even better if Super Drain takes care of Servo first," Shelby points out. Back in the digital world Servo manages to get free and hits a blast of grid power to buy some time however the warning light on his head has started to go off. The virus opens it mouth and fires it's own blast knocking Servo down. "Okay you guys are going in," Sydney says back in the real world as she calls up the attack vehicles. "Let's Kick Up The Power!" "Pound The Rock!" "Log On!" Rebecca, Will, and Linda yell before being transported int the digital world. Rebecca in Borr, Will in Tracto, and Linda in Vitor. They arrive in the system. With Servo down the virus is back to draining energy. "Vitor you take the left I'll take the right let's see if we can get ugly spinning around," Rebecca says taking command. "Right," Linda replies.
Borr takes one sides and hits first drawing Super Drain's attention and it fires a blast. Vitor hits a missile attack to the back. "My turn," Will says before firing Tracto's blasters. "Servo are you back online?" Linda asks. "Servo is still down. Form Zenon," Sam instructed from the real world. They do and start to exchange punches with the virus. "We got to try finish this thing," Rebecca says before launching the fist missiles with the virus deflects with a flick of it's tail. Meanwhile Servo tries to stand but falls back down. Suddenly the strange energy that has powered him in the past appears.
The virus is starting to drain power from Zenon as Severo stands back up and hits a running jump kick. Both Zenon and Servo hits a grid power shot doing damage to the virus. "Not again," Shelby says annoyed. "Yes but this will be the final time. I have a plan to put us over the top," The program says shooting a beam that connects with the virus. "What are you doing?" Shelby asks. "Taking advantage of an opening." Back at the battle Team Samurai is forming Synchro. The drill missiles do some real damage and than one final grid power shot destroyed it. "Well that did nothing," Shelby complains. "Incorrect. It was clear that virus was going to be destroyed. I changed to ability to drain power to send any energy used to attack it to me," The program. "You don't mean?" "Oh yes Dark Servo RISE!"
Back in the system where the battle Synchro repairs the damage to the system and than returns to being Servo and the attack vehicles. "Great work team," Jon/Servo says. "Let's get out here," Will says. "Base to Team. I agree get back," Sydney says. "Last one there is a rotten egg," Rebecca taunts taking off. Will is next followed, than Lina. Servo/Jon is about to take off when something hits him in the back. "JON!" Sam yells watching in the real world. "Reverse course Servo needs help," Sydney tells the team. They try to but some kind of power blast knocks them back into the real world landing hard on the floor in the mansion. "Kids you alright?" Tanker asks helping them up. "We are fine where is Jon?" Rebecca asks. "In trouble," Sam says.
Back on the grid Jon/Servo looks over and to his shock Dark Servo is approaching him. "Well well well hero that was to easy," Dark Servo taunts. Servo scrambles back to his feet the warning light going off again. Servo throws a punch that Dark Servo easily avoids and lands a kick of his own. Spinning hook kick by Dark Servo knocks Servo down. "Mom you got to do something," Rebecca yells watching the battle play out. The two Servos exchange punches and kicks with Dark Servo having the clear edge landing the more powerful blows. Servo/Jon is knocked back. Sydney frantically types on key in the world trying to give Jon a power boost. Jon/Servo feels it. "One chance," he says before using a blast from the gauntlet on his wrist. Normally it a finishing move but all it does is do enough to knock Dark Servo to the ground and he quickly gets back up. "You will have do better than that hero," Dark Servo taunts. Jon/Servo is back up as well.
Dark Servo goes for a shot from his gauntlet but Servo is able to avoid it. Dark Servo gathers energy and tosses it at Servo who can only avoid it partially. "Come on finish him," Shelby says. "This is not good he needs to fight smartly," The program says. "What is wrong?" Shelby asks. "Dark Servo is using much energy." Back in the battle Dark Servo's own warning light is starting to flash but it's clear the heroic Servo is much weaker. "He's got Servo on the ropes," Shelby says. Back in the Manson Sydney is at a panic. "Servo you have to get out of there!" She finally yells. "Syd what is wrong?" Sam asks. "Servo is nearly powerless. If he hits zero I don't know what will happen," Sydney admits. "Jon come on son get out of there," Sam pleads. "It will be okay buddy," Tanker claims not even fooling himself.
Back at the battle Servo is trying to ready himself for one more attack. "Jon no. You are danger you must leave," A voice in Jon/Servo's head says. "Mom?" Jon says recognizing the voice. "Mom?" Dark Servo says confused. This gives Servo/Jon a chance to hit one more blast from his gauntlet and take him down and than fly off. Dark Servo recovers once he is gone. "Run while you can hero. The next time we meet I will delete you!"
Jon returns to the real world and stumbles causing Sam and Tanker to catch him. They help Jon to the sofa. "What was that thing?" Jon asks. "Servo's evil twin," Will says. "That doesn't matter right now. We need to make sure you are okay you took a real beating," Sam tells Jon. "I'll be fine dad. I'll be fi..." Jon suddenly passes out. "Jon! JON!" Sam yells shaking him. Tanker moves Jon to the floor and checks his breathing and pulse. "I think he' just passed out but we should still get him to a hospital," Tank suggested. "And tell them what?" Linda asks. "We can figure that out. But I think what ever damage Servo took transferred over to Jon. He might have a concussion or something," Tanker says. "Will help Tank and I," Sam says. The three of them pick Jon up and take him to a car. Jon starts to stir. "It will be okay buddy," Sam promises.
