Yeah, Yeah! I finally got back into playing this game! Score! Any-hoo, I figured I might as well write the next chapter to this so that I can continue it in the MMX sequel. We-hehell, I've got noting better to do + boredom…Yeah! I'll write chapter 5 for all of you fans! (The room goes silent) …ok then.

I only own Calculus. I own Dana and Tyro for now… How so? You'll just have to wait…

Chapter 5: Freight Delivery

          "Hey, Lan! I can see something up ahead, and its not more distorted platforms!" Mega Man spoke while running. A blue Mettool got in his way, but it was only there for a few seconds, before MM used DynaWave to level it. Finally, the blue Navi got to a wider platform that had a strong electricity beam in the middle.

          "Is that elemental electricity, Mega Man?" Lan asked, "Because if it is, then you can use your Wood Armour to get inside it."

          "Yeah, I think it is. Equip my Wood Armour!" Mega Man said. Wood Armour: Equipped!           "Ok, time to get the inside story, Lan. Back me up!"        

          "Roger!" Mega Man walked straight into the electricity beam, only to find five pieces of mystery data.

          "SWEET-NESS! Lan, Are you getting this?"

"Yeah! The most pieces of mystery data I've seen together are two! Down Load that data!"

"Roger!" Mega Man downloaded all five pieces, then laughed happily. "Lan! Do you know what we just got?"

"No, but I have a feeling that I'll find out without asking."

"DataStrand Programs! Five DataStrand programs!"  Suddenly, the electricity beam shrank, than disappeared. In the distance, Mega Man could see the distorted zones platforms coming back together correctly again.

"This area is stable again, Lan. Everything's coming together again! I don't have to jump those platforms again!"

"Are the DataStrands that unstable? To distort the net that much? Mega Man, are you ok? You're not distorted, or anything like that, are you?"

"Lan, calm down. I'm fine. I guess those programs can't distort me for some reason. Oh well, I didn't know that these programs would be so easy to get. Let's deliver them to Dana. We've already got 6, possibly 7, DataStrand programs today. Let's Jack-Out and make a delivery."

"Roger that, Mega Man. Jack-Out!"

          "Ok, now what house did she live in?" Lan asked, standing outside, back to the front door of his house.

          "I think she lives in that brown house over there, to your right. Let's go see." Mega Man suggested. Lan walked over to the brown house, and knocked on the door. Nothing, not a noise nor dog, came from the house. Lan knocked again, but this time the door swung open inward.

          "Well, I guess no one's home, but the door's unlocked. Let's go take a look around her house!"

          "Lan, don't be rude now. How would you like it if someone came into your house and started sifting though your stuff?"

          "I'm not sifting, I'm just going to take a look around, and see if I can find a good spot to leave the DataStrand Battlechip." Lan had taken the time to download all of his DataStrand programs to the blank BattleChip he got from Higsby. With his point made, and his Navi unable to stop him, Lan went into Dana's house.

-*~*~*-

          The house was dark, no lights were on inside. Lan walked straight down the main hall, and into a kitchen. It was rather clean, but there were a few dirty dishes in the sink. To his right, he saw a room full of boxes. On the floor, he saw 3 small things, lying there like rag dolls. Lan remembered seeing one of those kinds of things in Mayl's room. Small robot toys, as they were supposed to be. Heading up the stairs, he saw a very clean bathroom right in front of him. To his right, he saw a dim-neon glow. It was a computer that was still on. Lan walked into the room and looked to the right. There, on a shelf, he saw five more robot toys.

          "Dana must really like those things." Lan said quietly He walked over to the computer, and glanced at the screen. There, he saw a bunch of programming language. The Window was titled:

Project: Genesis

          "Project: Genesis? What is that?" Lan asked his Navi.

          "I have no clue, Lan" Mega Man responded. "Hey, look! A Jack-In port! Wanna look around on her computer?"

          Lan hesitated, "I don't want to make any problems on this project she's doing, whatever it is. Let's finish looking though this place, and leave. This should be a good spot to put the BattleChip." Lan said, leaving the DataStrand BattleChip and the green computer chip he got from Tyro on her desk, then he left the room. Walking down the small hall, he saw another room with a lot of boxes, and three more robot toys on the floor.

          "How many of those things does she have?" Lan whispered suspiciously.

          "Right now, I've counted 11 of those toys." Mega Man responded.

          "11 to Mayl's 1? Man, she really likes those things." To Lan's left he saw another room. "That's probably her bedroom. I don't think I'll go in there. Let's get back home, have supper, and hit the sack. Sound good?"

          "Yeah. Let's hope that she doesn't come home n-" Suddenly, they both heard it, the noise of two people entering the house. "Shoot! Mega Man, we've got to get out of here!" Lan exclaimed quietly. "Let's hide in this room full of boxes. We probably could wait until they leave."

          "Are you crazy, Lan? If it's Dana, the she probably wont leave!"

          "No, Mega Man. Listen! That doesn't sound like Dana! Sure, there's a man and a woman, but Dana's not one of 'em. Let's hide NOW before they come up here, we've wasted enough time!" Lan said while trying to hide behind the stacks of boxes as quietly as he could. It wasn't too hard, being there was a meter (a bit over 3 inches) of space behind the boxes. Lan tried to calm down as the two sets of footsteps came up the steps, and came toward the room the Lan was hiding in, but the turned left, and stopped in front of Dana's bedroom. The woman then spoke:

          "She's not here. The boss isn't going to like this…"

          "We can't control if the girl's here or not. It's not our fault."

          "Yeah, but the boss 'll probably take that as an excuse for 'incompetence'. Do you really want to disappoint him after what that kid did to WWW five months ago? We have to find her, or boss will have our heads. She's not here, so let's amscray!" The two people started down the steps, and left the house. Five minutes after they left, Lan cautiously left the house. Mega Man piped up first:

          "Lan! Did you hear that? Those two were looking for Dana, and they sounded like they worked for the WWW! That means…the WWW want Dana!"

          "Yeah, I know Mega Man. But the question is: why do they want her?"

End of chapter 5!

Why indeed… you'll find out eventually…there'll be at least 2-3 more chapters to this story…
