Hey. I just re-read some of this fic, and I came to realize it isn't
my best work(If you are confused by or dislike all the Eva fluff, you are
given permission to slap author). However, it's not my style to just ditch
a story, so I'm going to finish it (even if you people hate it and think
I'm crazy). Time to fight some viruses and such! ^_^ MegaMan, Zero and all
other Navi's/characters belong to Capcom. I only own Vash and Kasumi.
------
Forte was mad. Forte was VERY mad. Forte wanted to kill Zero and MegaMan. Forte, however, knew the difference between friend and foe. "Jerks."
"Whatever. Zero just saved your life. You should be more grateful." MegaMan spoke in a hushed voice. "Besides, we could have just killed you right then and there."
"Let him be ungrateful, MegaMan. It's just his nature. He's meant to be independent, so of course he won't like it when he gets help. And once again, that's my line."
"Fool." Forte looked away from the red Navi. "Zero... Thanks. I hate to say it, but thank you."
"Your welcome." Zero nodded. "That's the same way I got the virus out of Iris." Zero took a seat on a bench. The park was dark, as night had fallen. The shadows casts by the nearby street light were ominous, but the three Navi's were not afraid. "First, we have to find a way to stop this thing before everyone knows about it. Vash's school knows about it, but that 'Nerv' thing silenced them, saying it was a glitch. If the general population got their eyes on this information, then we'd have mass panic. However, people do deserve to know..."
"But if we can get rid of Ireul, then no one will have to know. Besides, I think I may have an idea of getting rid of it." MegaMan said.
"What would that be?" Forte was still avoiding Zero.
"If Zero could use that Chain Rod to drain the entire virus, then the problem would be solved. The only issue is, the virus won't stick around long enough to be drained completely." MegaMan surmised.
"Unless we had bait." Forte eyed Zero.
"There's no way we're going to use Iris as bait. I'd rather die." Zero's tone was flat. Forte nodded in understanding.
"I know. I was thinking about using you and that chip."
"That might work, but we can't let Ireul come even close to having that chip." MegaMan said aloud. "Is their any way to destroy it?"
"If the chip is just Data, and has no physical form, then I would assume that we could just delete it like a program." Zero brought out the chip. He tossed it into the air, shooting it with his buster. Instead of being deleted, it instead shattered into three separate pieces. "That sucks."
"Actually, we could use this. If we each take a piece, then Ireul would have to defeat each of us to get it back." Forte stooped, taking the biggest piece. MegaMan and Zero each took a part of it also.
"We still have the problem of the actual Virus. What can we do?" Zero asked.
"You all can die." A voice came from the darkness. Sixteen Navi's all came from the darkness. "We, servants of WWW and Ireul will take the chip to our masters. You are no longer required." Zero immediately recognized the leader of the Navi's. Colonel.
"What? What are you doing Colonel? Where's Iris?" Zero yelled.
"Our lord Ireul has taken her PET. I took her out of the PET myself, so I would know. You need not worry however. She feel's nothing, and soon you will be the same. Think of it as revenge." His face was stretched with pain, his features distorted by corrupted data.Few Navies had been alerted to the presence of the Virus, leaving many exposed to Ireul's influence. Hindsight sucks.
"So, you've all been infected." Forte spoke as he prepared for combat.
Zero took out his chain rod and his Z saber. He used an Elecsword chip to change his element, and changed to the Proto form while MegaMan changed to Fire style. Zero stared Colonel down, almost daring him to attack. He did.
Colonel charged at Zero, trying to impale Zero on his saber. Zero jumped to the side and fired his Chain rod. The electrical charge it carried stunned Colonel, allowing Zero to begin draining Ireul from him. Before he could finish however, several Navies tried to attack Zero. He retracted the Chain Rod and jumped away. Colonel, still under Ireul's control, tried attacking Zero again and again. He failed to realize that MegaMan was beside him, and soon found himself being tossed to the side by his buster fire. Zero took this chance to drain the rest of Ireul out of Colonel, then throwing him aside and out of combat.
Forte and MegaMan, meanwhile, were deleting the other Navi's as quickly as they could. MegaMan was firing at a frenzied rate, tearing down the nearby Navies with grim precision. Forte was also attacking the Navies, but he was using his 'Electric Rush' attack instead of a buster(got name from an FAQ, so don't sue me if it isn't the real name). Since most were generic Navies, they could easily be replaced by their owners. It was cruel, but Zero knew he couldn't drain them all without getting himself deleted in the process. Forte and MegaMan understood this, and ended the Navies lives as quickly as possible. In the end, Zero was only able to save two others besides Colonel. One of the infected Navies ran away, eluding deletion to report to Wily.
"Well... At least I didn't kill him this time." Zero said. The knocked out form of Colonel stirred.
"Good thing. Iris wou-" MegaMan was cut off by Forte covering his mouth and shaking his head.
"Not now. Don't mention her. Remember?" Forte looked hard at MegaMan until he nodded.
"It's okay forte. We'll get her back. This need's to end, and soon..." Zero pulled out the fragment of the chip he held. "Iris... I know what I'm fighting for now... This may be the past, but I can still make a difference" Zero murmured. MegaMan and Forte stared at Zero. They both shrugged, and helped the three fallen Navies back to their PETs. Alone, Zero began to think. Eventually, a plan came to mind. "I think I have a way... Though it may kill me. Wait for me Iris."
------
Iris couldn't feel anything but cold. It enveloped her, strangled her, and forced it's way into her. All the while, she could only think of Zero...
"You gave him the chip... Interesting... You now make a good hostage, young one."
"Yes, yes. But when do I get MY end of the bargain for luring the three here?" It was Wily.
"Why, right now my friend." Iris felt the cold leave her, taking her strength with it.
"Wait! What are you doing?!?" Wily was panicking. Something was wrong, Iris could tell that much just from his voice.
"You wanted something that could take over any system it wanted. Now that I'm in your system, you technically have that."
Ireul's sarcasm was lost on Wily. "NO! GET AWAY FROM THOSE FILES! Stop it!"
Wily threw something at the computer, damaging it. Ireul couldn't be stopped by the will of a puny human, however. It spread throughout the hide- out's systems, infecting all of Wily's evil Navies. Every one of them started to tear apart the castle from the system programming out. Explosions could be heard from down the hall, in the computer labs...

Zero had returned to his PET, and found a message waiting for him...

The end is near(Three chapters I hope)... Special messages and thanks to certain reviewers:
-Firehedgehog: Good evening?(if I translated right) What the heck? YOU CONFUZZLED ME! Oh well, here's your update that you wanted. (HOLY FRUITS! Checked your bio. Dude. That's a lot of stories.)
-Serenade DS: Yea! My first flame-ish thingy!(being the first one ever, it really hurt! Oh well, life goes on. Also part the reason I delayed in putting this up.) I've decided to go with the GBA version of the story instead of the anime. I'm keeping them kind of like Bass and Treble in the old MegaMan games(the whole 'man's best friend/power-up' thing because of Forte GS.) Besides, even if it isn't like that even in the game, this is still an Alternate Universe fic, ain't it?
-yamiangie: No, this isn't going to be a repeat of X5(never played, but got the general story). I understand that you don't care 'bout the Eva stuff, but It IS/WAS part of the story. (it eventually makes sense at the end, trust me.) And who are you anyway?(rhetorical, don't answer) Plus the random run on sentences confused me more than Firehedgehog's review did!
-Darth: I don't know if you mean to, but your one sentence blurb's for reviews seem rather sarcastic. Thanks anyway.
-EXE-sami: There's your style change. I need abilities info!!!
-To all others: Thanks for your continued support of my stupidity!
