Six months had passed since Cobolt was destroyed. Following the attack Lan had been made a part time official with the same powers as Chaud. The group of friends had graduated from middle school only a week ago and were enjoying the first part of their two month long vacation. Megumi and Mayl were sitting in ACDC park chatting and waiting for Lan and Dex to get back with their photos from their graduation dance.
"So Roll, tell us again how long you'd been sneaking off with Megaman?" Mayl asked.
"Stop interrogating me! I told you at the grad dance last week for a year and a half" Roll said.
"And you wanted to wait to see if Lan and I got together before you told us" Mayl said, "We got together almost six months ago, why did you wait?"
"Mayl, leave her alone about it, You have to admit it was funny when you found Megaman in your pet dancing with her" Megumi laughed.
"I'm still wondering how he got that suit." Mayl said.
"Hey girls!" Dex called running over holding a pair of envelopes, followed closely by Lan.
"We got the pictures!" Lan called.
"Good, give em here!" Megumi said, grabbing one of the envelopes, "He he, you look so cute in your suit Dex"
"Aww..." Dex blushed.
"I admit, you do dress up nicely Dex" Mayl said.
"Hey!" Lan exclaimed.
"But I still prefer the way Lan looked." Mayl said, playfully swatting him.
"What about me?" Megaman asked.
"Well, you and Lan are twins so you both looked great" Mayl said.
"I'll say" Roll chimed in.
Their mood was broken when the sound of an explosion came from the nearby chip shop.
They ran towards the store only to find it in ruins, all the glass was broken and smoke was pouring from the upper floor windows. Mr. Higsby, owner of the shop and good friend of the groups was frantically helping injured customers out of the danger zone.
"Mr. Higsby!" Lan called, "What happened?"
"I dunno huh, but Numberman said some strange navi forced it's way into the store system just before it happened" Mr. Higsby said, "The strange navi deleted Numberman before he could do anything else huh"
"Is everyone safe?" Dex asked.
"Anyone trapped inside!" Megumi asked.
"No, I got everyone out huh" Mr. Higsby said, "The police are on their way, you should get out of here"
"Ok, we hope you can salvage most of your stuff" Mayl said, "If you need any help just contact us"
Megumi started to get a bad feeling as they walked away from the smoking store. She started looking around for something. Dex noticed her expression and stopped walking.
"Are you ok Meg?" He asked, "You look like something is bothering you."
"No, I just thought of something, but it's nothing" Megumi said.
"Well, I'm sorry guys but I need to go, Megaman and I should start investigating this strange navi." Lan said, running towards his house, "Call you later tonight Mayl!"
"Bye Lan" Mayl called before turning back to her friends, "What should we do now?"
"We could go downtown" Dex said, "Maybe get some lunch"
"Sounds good" Megumi said, walking arm in arm with Dex towards the Metroline station.
As they rounded the corner Megumi froze. Standing there in front of the station was Jago, Megumis' twin brother who had disappeared before their father was arrested for trying to destroy the Net. An evil looking smirk was on his face as he stared directly at Megumi.
"Jago!" Megumi exclaimed.
"Huh! What's he doing here?" Dex asked.
"Isn't he wanted?" Mayl said.
Jago reached into his coat pocket and procured a letter, which he threw onto the ground right before he disappeared into the metroline station. Dex ran up ahead of Megumi and Mayl and into the station, only to emerge seconds later.
"He's disappeared" Dex said as he came out, "What's the letter say?"
Megumi picked up the letter. Her name was written in jagged letters and the symbol that was on Blitzkriegs chest sealed the envelope. Megumi opened it and read the not inside. She gasped and dropped the letter.
"Megumi, are you ok?" Tasha asked, appearing on the screen of her PET.
"The note, it says he is coming for me" Megumi said, "And you guys"
"What! I'd like to see him try" Dex said, "If he tries anything he'll answer to me!"
"Perhaps we should put off our lunch together and go tell Lan" Mayl said.
"Mayl, you have an E-mail from Yai!" Roll said, "Oh no! Glyde was attacked and deleted by Blitzkrieg!"
"Blitzkrieg! He was deleted!" Dex said, "How is he back!"
"I know how" Megumi said, "Father designed Tasha and Blitzkrieg with the ability to be restored even if only a small fragment of data is collected"
"You guys go tell Lan, I'll mail Chaud, But even with him Blitzkrieg may still be too powerful" Mayl said.
"Let's go" Dex said, taking Megumi's hand and rushing towards Lans home.


"Learn anything yet Megaman?" Lan asked.
"Nothing, no one has seen anything" Megaman replied, "But several navis reported friends going missing"
"Hmmm, go quickly patrol the area then return to the home page" Lan said.
"Okay" Megaman said, warping out of the square. He entered ACDC area number three and started to look around. Satisfied there was nothing of interest there he jumped into ACDC area number two. As soon as he entered into it he heard a scream coming from the platform where the schools gate control was kept.
"Lan! Something's up!" Megaman said, rushing over to the platform. Megaman skidded to a stop when he saw the source of the scream.
"It's him!" Megaman stuttered.
"Blitzkrieg!" Lan exclaimed, "How!"
Indeed it was Blitzkrieg standing there on the platform clutching the gatekeeper navi by the throat and absorbing its data. Blitzkrieg turned and stared at Megaman, his face half covered by what looked like a metal plate.
"You were the one who destroyed Higsby's store!" Megaman yelled, "You'll pay for that!"
"Fool, this time you do not have Bass to launch surprise attacks on me, or Tasha's Omega Life Virus" Blitzkrieg said, tossing the gatekeeper navi aside, letting it explode into loose data.
"How is it possible you are back!" Megaman asked, holding up his Megabuster defensively.
"After you deleted my the first time much of my data drifted into the Undernet where I started to reform, I would have been back sooner had Serenade not destroyed that data" Blitzkrieg said, dissolving his cloak, "But not all of my data was destroyed and Jago, my master, was able to rebuild me from a single fragment"
"This time there won't be enough of you left to rebuild from!" Megaman yelled, aiming his fully charged and pulsating Megabuster.
"As much as I'd love to delete you for what you did to me, I have bigger things I must attend to" Blitzkrieg said, warping out.
"Megaman, this is big" Lan said, "Send a mail to the officials and Chaud"
"I could feel his power radiating from him, he's far more powerful than last time" Megaman said.
Suddenly the door to Lan's room burst open as Dex rushed in followed by Megumi.
"Lan! Mayl got a message from Yai, Glyde was deleted by" Dex said before Lan interrupted him.
"By Blitzkrieg, I know" Lan said, "We just faced him"
"I never thought my brother would have the ability to rebuild Blitzkrieg" Megumi said.

Chaud was taking some time off of patrolling and was enjoying a meal in the cafe at the beach. Following the Cobolt attack there was a massive drop-off in virus activity and he wasn't needed as much.
"You know what Chaud" Protoman said, "I won't admit it around anyone else but I enjoy taking time off, Constantly investigating and battling is draining"
"You said it Protoman" Chaud said, "I just hope it doesn't last forever or else we'll be out of a job"
"Two new mails, one from Mayl and one from Lan" Protoman said.
"Bring em up" Chaud said. He read over the one from Mayl and his eyes went wide.
"How is that possible, Lan and Megaman destroyed Blitzkrieg" Chaud said.
"Lan's E-mail confirms it" Protoman said, "We've got a big problem here"
"You're right, notify headquarters" Chaud said, throwing his napkin on the table, "We've got to get to Sci lab.

Later that evening at the Electopia Maximum Security prison. A prisoner was being transferred into the Net Criminals block of the prison. The guards escorted him past cells filled with the former WWW operatives and the living Gospel agents until they reached one with a single person in it.
"Enjoy your new home, you'll be here until you die" One of the guards snickered.
"That's what you think" Jago and Megumi's father said, looking at his new cellmate.
"What are you looking at, I can't believe they would put me with a nobody like you" The shadowy figure said.
"And who are you who calls the creator of Cobolt a nobody?" Jago's father asked.
"I am the greatest robotics specialist whom ever lived" The man said standing up and coming into the light, "I am Dr. Wily!"
"I am not impressed" Jago's father said as a small crudely built device in his pocket started to beep, "My stay here will end very soon!"
"What is that device?" Dr. Wily asked as suddenly all the lights went out, "What is going on?"
Power was lost though out the prison and the Cells began to open. Guards grabbed stun weapons but the weapons all began to explode, rendering the majority of the guards too wounded to stop the incoming flood of escaping prisoners.
"How did you do that?" Dr. Wily demanded to know.
"My only loyal child" Jago's father said, "Perhaps you can help us"
"What is your goal" Wily asked.
"Simple, Destroy the entire Net!" Jagos father said and started to laugh maniacally.
"Ah, the downfall of Net society, I like it, I will lend my knowledge to you" Wily said following Jagos father out of the cell. They exited the main building and headed towards the main gate. The few guards who hadn't been knocked out by the exploding stun weapons found themselves hopelessly outnumbered by a mob of angry prisoners. Jago's father and Wily walked right out the front gate. Jago was standing there waiting.
"Father, good to see you are well" Jago said, "The infamous Dr. Wily I presume"
"Jago, it is good that I have at least one child who will not betray me" His father said, "Tell me, what has happened."
"This boy caused all that?" Wily asked, somewhat amazed.
"After I escaped the officials I escaped to the sea where I drifted for days and eventually found myself at an abandoned island fortress, I believe you may know it Wily" Jago said, "I rebuilt Blitzkrieg and I have begun taking revenge on Lan and all his friends"
"Lan, that cursed Hikari boy always got in the way of my plans!" Wily yelled.
"Excellent my son, soon Cobolt will be rebuilt and the Net shall fall!" His father said.
"We have no need, I have modified Blitzkrieg and given him the power that Cobolt had to destroy, he alone is powerful enough to destroy the Net" Jago said, "As we speak he is taking revenge on the one known as Dex"

"Hey Chaisoo, NetNews, it says a strange navi is deleting everyone it gets near and to be careful" Zakuman said.
"We'll be fine as long as we stay on the homepage Zakuman" Chaisoo said, "But just to be safe, close the portal to the net"
"Got it" Zakuman said, walking to the warp and closing it down, "What should we do now?"
"I dunno" Chaisoo said, "Wanna play a game?"
"Sure, what one?" Zakuman said, suddenly looking towards the closed warp, "What the? a massive power surge?"
"What's going on Zakuman?" Chaisoo asked.
"Somethings wrong" Zakuman said, approaching the warp suddenly came back online and Blitzkrieg emerged from it, "What the!"
"Your time is at an end" Blitzkrieg said, unleashing the full fury of his back cannon on Zakuman.
"Zakuman noooo!" Chaisoo cried.
"Now you will be deleted" Blitzkrieg said to Chaisoo. An aura of energy formed around Blitzkrieg that expanded and then exploded in a massive flash. The screen on Dex's PC exploded, making Chaisoo have to run for cover.
"How did it do that?" Chaisoo asked himself. The PC tower all of a sudden started making a loud squealing sound and smoke started to pour from the vents, "Uh oh"
Chaisoo ran out the house just before the PC exploded, spreading flames throughout Dex's room The flames quickly spread throughout the house, engulfing it in flames.
"Our home..." Chaisoo mumbled, shocked at what had happened.

"Hey Lan, Dex there's a lot of smoke coming from over there!" Megumi exclaimed, pointing towards Dex's house.
"Huh? Let's check it out!" Lan said, rushing out with the other two. They were shocked when they arrived on scene to find the house ablaze.
"Chaisoo! What happened!" Dex exclaimed, running to his little brother.
"Some strange navi forced its' way into your PC and deleted Zakuman, then made the PC explode!" Chaisoo said.
"Blitzkrieg" Lan growled, "We have to get home and disconnect our PCs' from the net!"
"Right!" Mayl said, dashing towards her house. Megumi stayed behind with Dex to wait for the police and fire department to arrive. Lan arrived at his home but it was too late. Black smoke was pouring from his home. He opened the front door and was met by intense heat.
"Mom!" Lan yelled, "Are you there!"
"Lan! Help!" His mother cried out. Lan covered his mouth with his shirt and dashed inside. He searched around the living room, only to find nothing.
"Lan!" His mothers voice came from the dining area. Lan spotted his mother trapped under the table by burning debris. Ignoring the red embers, Lan threw the debris aside and pulled his mother out, leading her to the door. Mayl was waiting outside with a horrified look on her face.
"Lan are you okay!" Mayl exclaimed, looking at his burnt hands, "Oh my god!"
"I'm fine, your house is okay?" Lan asked.
"Yes, my computer was starting to got wacko but I unplugged it." Mayl said.
"How is he doing this!" Lan exclaimed.
"Perhaps it's a new type of virus" Megaman suggested, "Let's go to Sci Lab and talk to dad!"
Just then Dex and Megumi came running over.
"Oh man!" Dex exclaimed, "When I get my hands on Jago I'll rip him apart!"
"I never thought he would be able to do all this!" Megumi said, on the verge of tears.
"Lan, news flash!" Megaman exclaimed, "The prison was attacked last night, Jagos' father escaped!"
"It's happening again." Megumi said, "We may not be able to stop it this time... not without help"
"There's more" Megaman said, sounding somewhat morbid, "Wily escaped with them"
"Lan, we gotta stop him!" Dex said, "Come on! Let's get to Sci Lab!"
"We'll stay here and help the police" Mayl said, dashing off with Megumi.

Dex and Lan took the Metroline to the Sci Lab building. Scientists and officials were running about shouting and trying to make sense of everything that had been happening. Lan and Dex made their way to Dr. Hikaris' office and found roughly the same scene.

"Lan!" Dr. Hikari exclaimed, "Please tell me you know what's going on!"
"Actually yes" Lan said.
"It's Blitzkrieg!" Dex said, "He's destroying everything!"
"Great, just great" Dr. Hikari groaned, "We need to stop him!"
"Dr. Hikari!" An aide yelled, handing him a paper. A shocked look came over Dr. Hikaris' face as he dropped the paper.
"Dad! What is it!" Lan asked, shaking his father.
"Netopias' net, it's been completely deleted...." Dr. Hikari said.
"Impossible, not even Serenade is strong enough to do that!" Lan exclaimed.
"Sir! Reports of a strange Navi attacking the Undersquare!" A second aide yelled.
"Lan, come on!" Dex said, running over to a console, "Lets end this!"
"Although I don't think it is wise, we can't just sit around and do nothing." Dr. Hikari said, pointing to a console, "That computer contains a warp to the Undersquare, I'll try to find a way to power Megaman up."
"Let's hit it Dex!" Lan said, "Jack in Megaman!"
"Go Gutsman!" Dex exclaimed.
Both Navi's appeared in the cyberworld in front of a red warp. Both stepped into it and found themselves in the middle of what looked like a war zone. Undernavis were being deleted everywhere, Blitzkrieg stood alone on the opposite side absorbing shots like they weren't even there. Serenade had even emerged from her secret areas and was attempting to direct the resistance.
"Fools, you are only delaying the inevitable!" Blitzkrieg yelled as a fully charged Megabuster shot impacted on his back, "Fool, you are too pitiful to harm me!"
"I'll kill you for what you did!" Gutsman yelled, charging Blitzkrieg.
"Undernet forces retreat!" Serenade ordered as the few remaining undernavis warped out, "Megaman, he is far to powerful!"
"I don't care! He tried to kill me and Lan!" Megaman said charging his buster up again.
"Eat this you pitiful worm!" Blitzkrieg said, firing his back cannon at Gutsman, destroying his left arm.
"You will die!" Gutsman yelled, punching Blitzkrieg and sending him flying with his remaining arm.
"Gutsman, get out, another hit and you're dead!" Megaman said, shooting wildly with his buster.
"Too late" Blitzkrieg said, firing off another shot aimed at Gutsmans' head. Just before it impacted another Navi warped in and managed to deflect it with a large shield.
"Protoman!" Megaman yelled, "Good of you to show"
"I thought I deleted you in Netopia" Blitzkrieg growled.
"I'm not that easy to kill." Protoman said, powering up his sword to full, "We make our stand here! If we fail then the net is doomed!"
"That won't happen" Serenade said, charging up to full power.
"First we destroy you, then hunt down your operator" Megaman said, aiming his buster.
"Everyone, attack as one!" Lan said, "Megaman, FIRE!"
"I'll kill you!" Gutsman said dashing in from the side.
"Idiots" Blitzkrieg said, grabbing Gutsman and using him as a shield. The shots all impacted on Gutsman, who screamed and disappeared into loose data.
"No Gutsman!" Megaman exclaimed, looking into the cybersmoke for any signs of life.
Blitzkrieg suddenly shot out of the smoke and put his fist right through Serenades' chest, making her explode into loose data.
"No!" Protoman exclaimed, slashing at Blitzkriegs back with his sword. The sword did nothing at all and Blitzkrieg grabbed Protoman and literally crushed him.
"He's far to powerful, Lan we need a plan here!" Megaman yelled.
"Try to hold him off!" Lan yelled back.
"Your life is over fool" Blitzkrieg said, stomping towards Megaman. Megaman fired his buster but the shots meerly dissipated on Blitzkrieg. Blitzkrieg raised his fist and thrust it at Megaman, who closed his eyes and waited for the inevitable. It never came though. Megaman opened his eyes and saw the back of a brown cape. Bass, attracted by the power emulating from Blitzkrieg, had warped in and grabbed Blitzkriegs fist.
"So we meet again" Bass said.
"You again, I'll crush you like a gnat!" Blitzkrieg said, taking a few steps back and charging his back cannon.
"I think not" Bass replied, charging his blasters. Both fired and the shots collided, creating a massive explosion that blew Megaman back and over the edge of the platform. He barely managed to grab the edge to save himself. Slowly he climbed back on to find a massive hole in the platform. Bass was embedded in the Undersquare statue, severely damaged. Blitzkrieg stood in the same spot, some sparks jumping from minor wounds.
"Accursed fools" Blitzkrieg growled, "All I have to do is finish you off."
"Um...Lan... Help!" Megaman screamed, backing away from the approaching powerhouse.
Suddenly Blitzkrieg stopped, a glowing sword sticking through his shoulder. He spun around and was face to face with Tasha, who looked thoroughly pissed off. Not far away was Roll aiming her blaster at Blitzkrieg.
"You" Blitzkrieg growled.
"In a matter of minutes there will be a flood of Navis coming in to fight you" Tasha said, "All being transmitted from Netopia via satellite, and they're very angry with you"
"And you're too wounded to fight them all" Roll added, "You're reign of terror is over."
"I can't allow that to happen" Another Navi, that looked like russian soldier, said as it warped in, "I, Comrade, want that pleasure myself"
"Ha!" Blitzkrieg laughed, "No one is equal to me!"
"I know you're there Jago" Comrade said, "Show yourself"
"The wonders of the Pulse transmission system" Jago said, appearing next to Blitzkrieg, "You have anything to say before you're deleted"
"Yes" Comrade said, "I am giving you the chance to get repaired Blitzkrieg"
"And I suggest you use it little brother" An older boy said, appearing beside Comrade, "I still remember what happened five years ago"
"Matt, looks like you managed to survive your bath" Jago laughed, "Why'd you come back"
"To tell you this" Matt said, "If you don't accept my challenge of a Net battle I will destroy Blitzkrieg here and now and then hunt you and father down like dogs"
"You seem sure of yourself" Blitzkrieg sneered.
"We have every reason to be" Comrade said, a thick russian accent in his voice.
"I give you one week to get ready little brother" Matt said, "And don't even consider launching another attack on the net, I'll be watching your every move"
"Very well then, I accept" Jago said, "Blitzkrieg, the destruction of the Net can be postponed a week, Jack out"
"Fine" Blitzkrieg mumbled, warping out.
"Comrade, let's go" Matt said as he and his Navi disappeared.
"What just happened?" Roll asked, helping Megaman up.
"Megumi? Are you all right?" Tasha asked.
"He's not dead" Megumi said, a tear streaming down her cheek.
