That morning, very early, I woke up in the middle of the night. I rubbed my eyes.

"Uhhh…" I was soo tired. I walked downstairs, and poured myself a glass of milk. I took a sip, and walked back upstairs.

RING RING RING! RING RING RING! I could hear my pet going off. Still drowsy, I walked towards the pet. It was pitch black. He must have been asleep.

"How do I work this thing?" I took out the manual, and flipped to page 5. I began to scan through, and ran my finger down the page:

Checking Emails on PETS:

When an email is received, you will hear a loud beep emitted from your PET. To check the message that was sent to you, look upon the face of your PET and press the black button underneath the BATTLE button [diagram shown left]. That will take you to options. Scroll down the list, and go to CHECK EMAILS. That will take you to your inbox, allowing you to check recent emails.

I clicked the button. I scrolled down to 'check emails' and looked at an email. It was sent from a user that I didn't recognize. It was from JunoHideout@PETpet.net. I clicked the email, and what was brought up was an email from MegaMan!

This is from MegaMan,

ALEX! I'm in a hideout, I was knocked out soon after you went to bed. I was in the square when I was hit over the head and knocked out. The person that did this froze the camera, so you won't be able to find me. All I can tell you is that I'm in the Juno area on the net. I don't know exactly where I am, all I remember is disappearing under a shop. Hurry please, I know you probably won't get this until morning, but please hurry!

Oh my gosh! I can't believe it!

To: JunoHideout@PETpet.net

From: MegaMan@PETpet.net

Slowly, he began to type:

MegaMan,

I want to find out anything you can about them. I'll get someone on the case as soon as possible. Ttyl. Bye.

-Alex

He picked up a pile of rocks, and began to throw it at Mayl's window. Click… Clink…

"WAKE UP!" I cried. "WAKE UP!!!" No response. I threw a grappler rope over to her ledge. I started to climb on the rope. When I got to her ledge, I climbed in. I knocked on the door. "WAKE UP!" Finally, she pushed aside her pony bedspread, and walked towards the sliding door.

"Al…ex… Do you have any… idea what time it is?" She rubbed her eyes.

"I NEED HELP!" She opened the glass door.

"Yes you do if your bothering people this late at night… good lord," she muttered.

"MegaMan is in trouble!!! He was captured last night while he was roaming the net. He sent me an email from some area. You don't understand! I need to use Roll to find him! I need to find him!"

"Are you serious? I'll get Roll-"

Before anyone knew what happened she was sound asleep. I picked up Mayl, and carried her to her bed. I covered her up and walked towards her PET.

"Lets see… how do I work this thing? Hers is more complicated than mine." At random, I clicked a blue button at the top of the pet.

"Huh… what? WHO ARE YOU! MAYL!"

"Stop Roll… please…"

"WHO ARE YOU?!"

"My name is Alex, remember? MegaMan is my PET."

"Oh that's who you are. Ok, whats up? Why do you have me? Where's Mayl?"

"She's asleep. I need to you to find MegaMan. He was captured last night while he was roaming the net. I don't know whats happened to him. Please help me find him."

"Wouldn't your PET camera help you find him?"

"Yeah, but whoever grabbed him switched off the camera as well. Now I can see where he was, but not where he is now."

"Well, how do you know he was captured?"

"He sent me an email."

"Really? Whats the address?"

"Umm… its JunoHideout@PETpet.net," I told her.

"Are you serious?! That was my old hide out! How could they have gotten through the security!" She immediately took off as the PET camera followed. She entered the square, and then stepped on a blue glowing teleportation area. She took of down the long rows of streets leading to a different area. "Get out of my way!" When I looked back at the PET, several viruses had appeared.

"I don't think so chicky-baby. Your not getting through us."

"Yes. Our leader told us to take out anyone who came here to rescue the Navi they brought yesterday. Oops? Have I said to much?"

"WHO IS YOUR LEADER?!" Roll commanded. They raised their clenched fists. In what seemed like milliseconds, they had both… fallen. It was Roll. She was standing on the other side of them, with her fist encircled by glowing blue energy. She quickly took, off again. She proceeded down the row, and entered a new NetSquare. It was empty though.

"Why are we here? There's nothing here!"

"Yes I know. This used to be LairLand NetSquare. It was destroyed in a horrible battle. Not many people come here anymore. Its supposed to be haunted." She ran over to one of the 4 desks for the Navi NetTraders. She made a quick movement, and a secret door had appeared. She quickly opened the trap door, and ran.

"I've been waiting," said a misty voice. "It took you a while to get here." I looked at the screen. All I saw was a figure in a brown cloak. I saw a red helmet shimmer, and then fade. "You are a careless PET owner for letting MegaMan roam the net like that."

"Why you…" I said with my fists clenched in rage. He quickly put his back to Roll.

"Hurry. Come with me!" He took off at a quick pace.

Roll followed. Another figured in front of Roll. She ran into him. They both fell face forward on each other.

"Ohh… I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry! I can't believe I did that. Please, I beg your pardon ma'am. I'm still working on this apperating stuff." He twiddled his thumbs. "I'm sorry…" he mumbled.

"Get off your butt Loren!"

"OWWWW!!!" All three of them quickly turned their heads.

"What was that…" Roll said scared. The cloaked figure drew his sword, and its laser was lit afire. It began to hum. He swiped two times, and the door blew up. It nearly blew Roll away, but I could see that the figure stood strong as ever.

"What?!"

"WHAT!"

When the smoke had cleared, I could see 6 Navis standing there. One had a scar on his left eye, and wore purple and orange armor. The second one was medium sized, not very strong looking, and had a scar across his forehead. He too wore the same armor. Every one of them had a scar, and wore purple and orange armor. Roll had stepped forward, and I could see MegaMan. He was torn and battered. He had a cut across his forward, and his lip was bleeding badly. His armor had been almost totally cut up, it had many holes in it. Many rips as well. His headband had been torn. The room was rather large, and had many doors for them to hide in.

"HOW DID YOU GET IN HERE!" Roll shouted.

"That's none of your business girl." The very buff looking one had stepped forward. "The better question is, How did you get in here? We had guards stationed at the front of the NetSquare, and this has top security."

"Exactly," Roll stated. "This was my hideout. NOW RELEASE MEGAMAN!"

"I don't think I will." He chuckled. "You're going to have to fight for him."

"That's no problem." The cloaked Navi, and what seemed like his partner stood in the corner. But as soon as they had finished their conversation, The figure stepped forward. A blue diamond glinted under the hood.

"We shall each take two of them," he said coolly. He drew his sword, prepared to fight. The other Navi, Loren stepped forward. He drew what seemed like a stick.

"How exactly are you going to fight with that?" I asked.

"This is my wand. I'm ready to fight."

"You think you can take us?" asked the tougher and bigger Navi.

"Yes!" said Roll.

"Yes," answered the cloaked one.

"I'm sure," said Loren.

"Well then boys, lets get 'em." The tough one charged forward, prepared to strike Roll. Loren raised his wand and called out,

"LIGHTNING HOLD! Hurry! GO! We'll hold them! You free MegaMan, and heal him! Hurry!" I watched as Roll ran over to free him. Meanwhile, Loren and the other Navi were struggling to keep the enemies at bay.

"That's it, I'm sick of this!" screamed the cloaked one. "FLASH BLADE BLAST!" He dashed by all the Navis and there was a huge sweep of energy, and then a giant blast. All the Navis had fallen. He stomped over to one of the heads torn from its mechanical body. "WHO IS YOUR LEADER?!

"My leader… hehe…"

"WHO IS IT?!"

"My leader… My leader… I… I… s…" His eyes were shut, and he burst into bytes that very second.

"NO! I NEED TO KNOW WHO IS RUNNING THESE PEOPLE! NOOO!" They left, only with the knowledge that a terrible organization was running these viruses. They could only hope that nothing would happen for a little while, but little did they know that peace would soon depart.
