Navi Fusion
Chapter Six: Mystery solved! Save Roll and Gutsman!
Netto was unable to get too sleep that night. He had his hands behind his head, on his bed, lying on the covers.
There has to have been some way the World Three could have gotten Gutsman, left Dekao's PC, and not have been seen in the Square again, Netto thought, relaying the past few days events in his mind. Nothing made sense, untill he realized the one thing that they had overlooked the first time they were in Dekao's PC.
"Rock," Netto said, sitting up. "I know how they did it," he told Rockman.
"Which one Netto-kun," Rockman questioned him.
"Kidnapping Gutsman," he answerd. "You know how the guy in the Square said that they never came back out, but they weren't in Dekao's PC when we got there?" Netto asked him, rhetorically. "Well, mabey they changed the link in Dekao's PC. So all we have to do, is enter it," he finished.
"Alright," Rockman responded. "I'll tell Yaito to get in touch with Meiru and Tohru, and tell them to meet us at Dekao's," Rockman said.
"Good idea," Netto told him, already headed out the door.
Later, when he got to Dekao's house, he was slaming on the door for about ten minutes, after the others came, until a very sleepy Dekao came to the door.
"What are you guys doing here!?" he screamed, apparantley shocked that they came so late, which fully awoke him.
"We know how to get Gutsman and Roll back," Netto told him.
"Really," Dekao said, now shocked even more. "Then come on in, I don't have all night!"
--------------------
After Rockman, Iceman, and Glyde went through the link, they found themselves in what looked like someone else's computer. They found lots of stasis pods, with what appeared to be custom made navis inside.
--------------------
"The five of you," Wily started. "Begin the operation now,"
Dark, Madoi, Hinoken, Maharjarama, and Elec-hakushaku went over to the computer to begin the merging of the navis.
-----------------
The navis had begun to be lifted out of the stasis pods by the programing of the Fuzor divice. Rockman spoted a small pink dot in the distance.
"Roll-chan!" Rockman yelled, causing Roll to wake out of her slumber.
"Rock, help us!" she responded.
"Don't worry," Rockman told her. "Iceman, Glyde, get out of here, they're starting to fuse them all!" he added.
Iceman and Glyde did as they were instructed and logged out.
Rockman noticed five switches in the distance.
Maybe, if I can hit them all, it will stop them from merging, Rockman thought. He didn't know what he could do, but he had to do something, because the navis were starting to become one as a giant clay looking thing that was moving out in all directions.
Rockman dashed for the switches, thinking of how to hit them all at once.
"Netto-kun," he said. "I need some chips to weigh down switches."
"OK," Netto responded. "Battle chips, Cube, Timpani, Ice Cube, Pawn, Rook, Slot in!"
Rockman quickly placed the five items on top of the switches. Suddenly the merging stopped. The navis all flew out of the giant blob, but the bulging thing still remained.
The navis quickly logged out, only Roll and Gutsman stayed. But before Netto knew it the blob began to transform,... into a dark copy of Rockman.
Yaito and Tohru then plugged Iceman and Glyde in to help.
"Guys, you need to go," Rockman told them. "I don't want to risk you getting hurt."
Iceman and Glyde came through the link.
"Rock, we want to help," Roll tried to reason.
"Roll-chan, I just don't want you to get hurt," Rockman said affectionatly.
"But we don't want you hurt either," Roll told him, and the four of Rockman's friends began to battle the evil clone.
But they were no match, they sucumbed to the evil Rockman's power fairly quickly.
Netto was furious. He began to concentrate so hard, not even knowing why, until he fell unconcious.
Back inside the net, a huge white explosion took place. And where Rockman once stood, was figure with different shades of green.
"You'll pay for this," the figure spoke.
"C'mon, Netto-kun, wake up," Tohru said calmly.
"Netto-kun, please wake up," Meiru sniffed.
Nothing was working, not even slaps from Dekao. Not even the scent of curry!
Back in the net, the mysterious figure dashed around the dark Rockman copy. The evil Rockman was unable to keep up with him.
The green-helmeted Rockman started to charge up his buster, in way, giving up his location. If the clone could see the faint charge light.
The copy Rockman didn't see it until it was too late. This strange hero released the heated plasma, hiting the phony in his chest plate.
The evil Rockman fell to the floor.
The multi-green colored Rockman just stood there, waiting for his opponent to stand.
Rockman's fallen comrade's were begining to awaken. Roll was the first one to open her eyes.
"Where's Rockman!?" she gasped, seeing her friend was not there.
The others got up.
"Meiru-chan, Rock's gone," she said.
"We have a situation here too," Tohru told her. "Netto-kun won't wake up."
"Well, there is another Rockman," Iceman spoke. "One with lots of different shades of green."
"What should we do, degasu?" Gutsman asked.
"He is trying to delete the evil Rockman," Glyde commented, as the Rockman clone stood up.
"Help him," the four humans said simultaneously.
"Okay," Roll told them.
Meiru, Yaito, and Tohru picked up their PETs and slotted in chips before going back to Netto.
Roll got close to the copy, and prepared to attack.
"AquaTower!" Roll exclaimed, soaking and damaging the dark Rockman.
"Salamander!" Glyde yelled, attempting to burn him.
"IceSlaher!" Iceman screamed, shooting an ice blast at the clone.
The new Rockman began to gasp.
Gutsman came up and punched the evil copy in the face.
"Wh...why are you helping me?" the green Rockman questioned them.
"Because...because...we're your friends," Roll answered, sensing something about him, telling her this was her friend.
"Thank you," Rockman told her.
Glyde went up to the copy and began another round of attacking.
"GlydeCannon!" he screamed, shooting at it.
Iceman's turn.
He blew an icy mist at the enemy.
Next was Gutsman, who GutsPunched his foe. This left the dark Rockman dazed.
Roll, still standing by the one she loved, faced him. He faced her. They took each others hands and prepared for the final blow.
"RockBuster!"
"Roll Flash!"
Their attacks became one, and blasted the enemy.
He separated into seven peices, which scattered everywhere, breaking through the walls of the PC, going all over the net.
Rockman fainted, reverting back to his normal self.
-----------------------------
"What happened?" Rockman and Netto asked wearily in unison.
Everyone explained what happened.
"So, I guess it's not over?" Netto asked.
"That's what we think," Yaito answered. "But we have no way of knowing where the peices are."
"Well, that's just one more adventure for us," Netto said excited.

Anime-Master7: Sorry I forgot the other part of your question. It takes place after EXE 3, with some anime and manga elements jumbled in. Actually, it's an AU fic. But, being as stupid as I am sometimes, I forgot to state it.
Author Notes: As I mentioned in a previous chapter, I do have a sequel lined up for this. Which includes Serenade. I'm using Serenade as a female in that, because that's what I believe it to be. Just a head's up so you don't bombard me with reviews saying it's a guy. It's already in production, but I won't post it for a while because it's being beta read. In the meantime though, you'll get a one shot Zero series fic I thought up today.
