Megaman Battle Network – Rebirth
Chapter 5 – Jailbreak
Lan's Dad was home when he got home from school. As it was unusual for him to be back so early he asked.
"I've been suspended pending investigation of an attempt to undermine SciLab security by Sarah," said his Dad.
"So where's Sarah?" asked Lan.
"Her body is in a holding cell," replied Dr. Hikari, "Her mind is in SciLab's computers somewhere."
Dr. Hikari thought for a moment then laughed.
"What's so funny?" asked Lan.
"I've just realised. With the new upgrades we've developed she will be able to undermine the security at SciLab," said his Dad, "God, are the officials going to kick themselves when they read the reports."
Actually the officials were on high alert running major security checks. Sarah thanked her stars she'd stumbled across a solo security navi pretty quickly and nearly totally absorbed it. It would be out for a few days so Sarah was using her new abilities to copy navis completely to wander around unnoticed.
"Hey you two!" shouted a yellow navi at two security programs, "I need an escort to data area 6 in case that navi shows up."
The two security programs led the way to data area 6 and stood outside the secure data area guarding it. The yellow navi walked past and nodded her approval. When in the data room Sarah changed back to normal. Using the password she gained from the security navi she quickly located what she needed.
"Alert, alert!" screamed the system, "Navi 487 is an impostor. Apprehend on sight."
Sarah stood waiting for the programs to come and get her. When they didn't come she changed into the navi and went out.
"483, we have designated orders from high level navis," said one of the programs, "Should we apprehend."
Sarah nodded and followed the programs. She recognised two things. The impostor and her victim.
"Hub!" screamed Sarah ignoring the two programs and changing back to attack, "How dare you hurt Hub!"
She carried on punching as the navi blocked her every move. She wasn't bothered, she looked for the opening she knew was coming and found it. She connected with the punch and sent her opponent flying. It looked at her from across the other side of the area.
"You were a fool. Power was yours and you never used it. I will use the power that was rightfully yours to get rid of you and then destroy the net," said the navi.
"Who would dare create such a bad copy of me?" said Sarah.
"My Master, Wily," said Scyler V1.5 before leaving the system.
