~Chapter 2~
~ Making our way ~
Metabee/Ikki fell on his back, flailing his arms around. "This...is a nightmare!! Somebody, pinch me!"
Brass/Erika sighed a bit, and leaned towards Metabee/Ikki, but instead of pinching him, she kicked him in the stomach.
"Owie!!..Hey, it didn't hurt that much," Metabee/Ikki said, but only in Ikki's voice. He lifted his shirt, to exaim it,
but instead of it being skin, it was peach coloured metal! "AHHHHH!" he yelled out in both voices, almost fainting.
"Calm down already! It's NOT a dream, it...reality!" Sumilidon/Koji said grimly.
"Actuelly, it's not TOO bad, I mean, haven't you ever wondered what it would be like to be a medabot?" Neutranurse/Karin
asked, but in Karin's voice only.
"NO!!!" Shouted out Metabee/Ikki, but in Ikki's voice only. "This is horrible!!" "Hey!" shouted Metabee's voice. "Well, you
know, there's nothing wrong with medabots, it's just that, well, what about to world championships?" came Ikki's voice. "Oh,"
"Um, This is more important than the world championships, nimrod! What about becoming normal again?!" shouted Brass/Erika.
Metabee/Ikki flushed a bit. "Good point.." both voices said.
"What do we do now, Ikki?" Neutranurse/Karin asked.
"Hey! Don't forget about me!" shouted Metabee/Ikki, in Metabee's voice.
Sumilidon/Koji rolled his optics as much as he could. "He meant both of you!"
"Oh," said Metabee's voice.
"Well, this is probably gonna be a problem...we should come up with new names, so that we each know that we're talking to..you
know, both halfs!" Brass/Erika therorized, in Brass voice. "Good idea," came Erika's voice.
"Well...ours shall be...SumiliKoji," said Sumilidon/Koji, now SumiliKoji.
"NeutraKarin!" Exclaimed Neutranurse/Karin, now NeutraKarin, closing one of her optics to form a wink, and gave a peace sign.
"Call us Sailor Erika," smiled Brass/Erika, now Sailor Erika.
Metabee/Ikki sighed. "(Ikki)I guess..." "(Metabee)We will be called..." "(both) Meta-Ikki!"
"Great, now that that's settled, what do we do now?" asked Sailor Erika.
"Well, what do you think? Try and find a way to get back to normal," said Meta-Ikki.
"Of course, Meta-Ikki, but how? If people see us, they'll freak!" exclaimed NeutraKarin.
"Good point.." mumbled Meta-Ikki.
"Well, I say we should find out *who* did this to us! Then, we can make plans," said SumiliKoji.
Everyone nodded. "But how?" asked Sailor Erika.
"Well..." thought SumiliKoji out loud.
"Hey,I've never seen you bunch around,"
"Huh?" Everyone looked up, to the bridge that streighted out for both ends of the river, to see where to voice had come from. It was...
Rokusho!
"(Ikki)R-Rokusho?" asked Meta-Ikki. "(Metabee)Is that you?"
Rokusho's optics widened. "How do you know my name, stranger?"
"I--It's us," Meta-Ikki explained. "(Metabee)Metabee," "(Ikki) and Ikki!"
"Wha--? But...how can I beleive you?"
"Let's see...You thought Dr. Aki killed your medafighter, Prof. Hushi, so you tried to totake revenge, you beat Metabee in a battle using
the medaforce, and was captured by the Rubber Robo Gang, so that they could steal your rare medal, and Metabee rescued you by using the
Metaforce...need I say more?" Meta-Ikki sighed.
Rokusho was speechless. After a minute, he jumped down from the bridge, and landed in front of Meta-Ikki. Rokusho stared into his eyes for
a minute, scanning him...and soon found two souls stuck in Meta-Ikki's body; both Metabee, and Ikki. "It...it IS you," Rokusho stuttered,
"I can see it in your eyes, it truely is you!"
"(Metabee) Told ya," Meta-Ikki smiled.
"But--but how did this happen?" Rokusho questioned.
"Trust us, we're on the same boat as you," Sailor Erika sighed.
Rokusho turned around, to stare at the other three. "...Erika, Brass, Koji, Sumilidon, Karin, Neutranurse!" he said in awe.
"(Koji)In the flesh..or, now metal, so to speak," SumiliKoji sighed.
"Well, all we know is, that we were robattling this guy and his medabot, when he said something, I can't quite remember though, and we all
blacked out! Next thing we know, we're all here, and like...this!" NeutraKarin explained.
Rokusho's optices narrowed. "This...is terrible! What fiend would do something like that to you?"
"Got us," Sailor Erika shrugged.
Meanwhile, a few buildings away...
"You idiots!!" spat a man, "How could you let them escape??"
Verra winced. 'I-I'm sorry, sir!! It wasn't our fault--"
"SILENCE!!!" The man raged. His black hair swayed a bit, as he shook his hair violently in rage.
Verra went silent, as well as a woman and another man. The woman had jade coloured eyes, and strawberry blonde hair, while the man had black hair,
as well as grey eyes.
"Now," The 'leader' of M.A.H.E. huffed, trying to calm down, "I want you *failures* to redeem yourself. To do so, you must capture one of the
'Meda-Morphs,' he growled impatiently.
"Y-Yes, Mr. Exodia," The woman named Valentina stuttered, getting up. Verra, Valentina, and the other man, Robert, all bowed, and walked out of the
room.
Exodia sighed, closing his violet eyes. He opened them once more, as he stared at his TV screen. He picked up the remote that layed on his desk, and
rewound the tape. After it finished, he played it, reviewing the past events of the escape of the Meda-Morphs.
All subjects were in the long test tubes, that held four medabots and human children. They were like they were in a deep sleep, as they were
slowly formed together to become four new beings, the medabots disintergrating from the tubes, and forming the new parts on the humans. After the process
was done, the evil scientists congratulated each other, but could not be heard, because the tape recored no sound. Then, suddenly, it happened.The boy
that was mixed with the old fashioned KBT-type medabot's green optices opened! He narrowed them, in anger. He didn't know what was happening, but he
was sort of in a dream like stat, since he was still unstable. He felt rage flow in his metal body, as he started to glow. He yelled something, but could
not be heard.
His optics began to glow bright green, as he body continued to glow brighter. He was calling on the meda-force!
'But how...how could the boy have done that?!' Exodia thought to himself in fustration.
As Exodia continued watching the film, he noticed that a blast of energy came from the Meda-morphs arms, as the tube cracked open. The scientists
tried to stop him, but failed. He freed the other three test subjects, and blasted out of the building. Then, the tape whent staticy.
Exodia growled angerly, as he slammed his fist into his desk, his violet eyes glowing dimly. The desk cracked slightly. "My plansshall not fail, even if one
of the meda-morphs has the meda-force...no matter what," he hissed to himself.
"Jeez, Mr.Exodia sure is angery about our mess-up,"Robert grumbled.
"Wouldn't you be, Robert?" Valentina asked.
"Yea, I guess so, but not THAT mad,"
"Well, then you know what to do," Verra said, "To lighten his mood, we must recapture to Meda-Morphs, to test on them more."
Valentina and Robert both nodded in agreement.
"Right, solet's go and track them down," Valentina, Verra, and Robert all walked down the hallway, and disappeared soon afterwards.
Later on that night, Rokusho, Meta-Ikki, Sailor Erika, SumiliKoji, and NeutraKarin trudged along the streets, inthe light of the moon. It was compleatly
silent, for everyone in the city were peacefully dreaming in their slumber. Everyone wished to, too, but could not; They decided it was best to travel at night,
so that they would stir any kind of trouble. They soon reach a shed nearby a farm, to rest for a few hours, and rest up for the morning. They also decided that
while they were out of the city, they could travel in the daytime; nobody would see them then!
They entered the shed, and Meta-Ikki and Rokusho said that they would stand guard for the night; nobody disagreed with them.
A hour had pasted since they settled in the beat-up and dusty shed, and everyone but Rokusho and Meta-Ikki were sound asleep..well, PARTY. Meta-Ikki's optics
were off, also asleep! Rokusho would have raised an eyebrow if he could at Meta-Ikki, as he stared him.
"Hey, are you awake or what?" Rokusho puzzled.
"(Metabee)...Yea, I'm awake," Meta-Ikki groaned.
"What about..your other half?" Rokusho asked, careful about his words.
"(Metabee)You mean Ikki? Naw, he's off like a light," Meta-Ikki chuckled.
'Shouldn't you wake him up?"
"(Metabee)..Hmm? No, I should give the kid a break for once,"
"Wow, that's really nice of you, Metabee, since your not always that cool with Ikki,"
"(Metabee)Well, you know...don't tell him this, but...he's my friend, I respect him, and...I'm glad he's,or was, my medafighter. Right now, I really just find this
whole thing as an opertunity to get to know him better, you know?"
Rokusho smiled the best he could. "Don't worry, I won't tell him,"
"Thanks, man,"
Meta-Ikki and Rokusho went silent for a while. Then, Rokusho spoke again. "...How will you ever use the medaforce again, Meta-Ikki?"
If he could, he would had blinked a few times in thought, but both sides of Meta-Ikki had to be alert to use their body propery. "....I really don't know, Rokusho, I
really don't,"
They both went silent again, as Rokusho watched to golden sun rise into the morning. 'Don't worry, my friends, I'll help you...somehow,' he thought, as he closed his
optics for their last hour of rest.
"Wake up, sleepyheads!" rang the voice of Sailor Erika, getting up.
Everyone but Rokusho quickly got up at Sailor Erika's wake up call. Rokusho slowly opened his optics, as he looked around. He blinked, as the wind swept his silk cape
that he had received as a gift from Karin a couple of weeks ago.
Rokusho rose from the place that he slept, feeling with his sensors the pavement under his feet. "Well," he started, "I guess we should leave before the famer that lives
here discovers us."
Everyone nodded. "We should head north, the way my sensors told us to go yesterday. I sensed a similar energy as yours coming from that way, and I suspect that one of the
people who did this to you is over there," Rokusho explained.
"(Metabee) Then let's blow this joint!" Meta-Ikki exclaimed.
Rokusho chuckled softly a bit, as the five walked out of the shed, towards the north.
"Hmmm....Valentina, we go this way," Verra muttered, looking at his remote, only it wasn't a remote; it was a tracking device. Verra pointed westwards with index finger.
Valentina raised an eyebrow, looking at the machine suspiciously. "Let me se THAT!" she yelled, swipeing the tracking device from Verra's hands.
"Hey--!" Verra complained.
Valentina ignored Verra's comments, as she studied the machine. She unemotionally sighed, as she turned the device around a bit. She stopped soon enough,and growled in
fustration. "You dumb@$$, you were holding it the wrong way!!"she raged, tossing the tracking device back at Verra.
Verra growled, going red in embaressment.
Robert laughed hysterically at Verra. "Ha-ha-ha-ha, looks like Mr. Perfect made a mistake! He-he-ha-ha-he!"
Valentina growled, a glint in her eyes, as Verra tried to hold back his temper. Valentina turned towards Robert,andshouted loudly (and monsterously), "YOUR NOT ANY BETTER,
BUB!!!!!!"
Robert squealed a little bit fearfully, as he stopped laughing. Verra half smiled at Valentina, calming down a bit.
"Now," Valentina huffed, "If you would PLEASE, we need to find those Meda-Morphs! Capeesh??"
Verra nodded, and Robert did as well, nervously.
"Good, Now, which way do we go, Verra?"
"Umm...I think south,"
"You THINK??"
"I know!"
"Good," Valentina walked ahead of them, stil fuming a bit at the two, Robert and Verra close by her.
As the five continued to walk to their destination in the north, Meta-Ikki was thinking a bit. The 'Ikki' part
discovered that now that he was party medabot, he didn't need to consume food. It made him a bit sad, that more of his
humanity was lost, but it was also a good thing; they didn't need to waste any time trying to find something to eat, or
go into the city and risk getting spotted! He also started to think about his mom; he had been gone for a while now, she
would be so worried about him!...And, he missed her...
'You really miss her, don't you?' Metabee said to him in his thoughts.
'Ya, wouldn't you?'
'Hey, she's my mom too, she tucks us both in bed at night, remember?'
'...Ya.'
'Right. I miss her as much as you do, pal, don't worry, we'll return to normal soon.'
'Thanks, Metabee. That means a lot. But don't get all soft on me, ok?'
Metabee laughed a little bit.
Meta-Ikki's thoughts were disturbed by somebody calling him. "Meta-Ikki! Meta-Ikki!"
"Huh?" Meta-Ikki said out loud. He looked around, and saw Sailor Erika, peering at him. "What?" he asked innocently.
"Meta-Ikki, pay itention! Rokusho just saw some people, dammit! If we don't hide quickly, we'll be spotted, and who knows
what will happen to us!"
Meta-Ikki's optics widened. "(Metabee)Run awaaaay!" Meta-Ikki said softly, following Sailor Erika in some bushes, at the side
of the gravel road.
Meta-Ikki made some rusting noises from his parts as he went into the bushes, and SumiliKoji hushed him. "Keep it down!"
"We don't want to be caught, Meta-Ikki!" said NeutraKarin worriedly.
"Sorry," Meta-Ikki whispered.
Valentina, Verra, and Robert continued their quest to find the meda-morphs for their boss Mr. Exodia, following the tracking
device that Verra was holding.
"They should be...around here...somewhere..." Verra muttered, moving his hands back and forth, scanning the device.
"Well, hurry up!" Valentina hissed, "We don't have all day!"
"I'm hurrying, love," he hissed back.
"Hey, did you here something?" Robert questioned, stopping dead in his tracks.
Valentina and Verra stopped too. "...What do you mean?" Valentina questioned, her eyes rolling from left to right, looking
around.
"It sounded like...metal," Robert whispered.
Sailor Erika banged her left fist onto Meta-Ikki's head. "Idiot!" she hissed angerly.
"Owie.." Meta-Ikki whined softly, rubbing his head with his purple fingertips.
"Quiet!" Rokusho said, annoyed.
"Hey, I just heard something else!" Verra gasped.
"Me too," Valentina agreed.
"Me oh my!" Robert laughed at himself.
Valentina slapped Robert across the head in discust.
"Ow!"
"Idiot," Valentina grumbled, rolling her eyes.
"Hey!" Verra exclaimed, "I found 'em!"
"Where, Verra?"
"Right....there," Verra whispered, pointing towards the bush where Meta-Ikki, SumilKoji, Sailor Erika, NeutraKarin, and Rokusho
were hiding.
"Crud," Meta-Ikki cursed, closing his optics tightly in thought. '(Ikki) What now? We should have just sayed in the shed for the
day, I knew it...'

~ Making our way ~
Metabee/Ikki fell on his back, flailing his arms around. "This...is a nightmare!! Somebody, pinch me!"
Brass/Erika sighed a bit, and leaned towards Metabee/Ikki, but instead of pinching him, she kicked him in the stomach.
"Owie!!..Hey, it didn't hurt that much," Metabee/Ikki said, but only in Ikki's voice. He lifted his shirt, to exaim it,
but instead of it being skin, it was peach coloured metal! "AHHHHH!" he yelled out in both voices, almost fainting.
"Calm down already! It's NOT a dream, it...reality!" Sumilidon/Koji said grimly.
"Actuelly, it's not TOO bad, I mean, haven't you ever wondered what it would be like to be a medabot?" Neutranurse/Karin
asked, but in Karin's voice only.

Valentina, Verra, and Robert continued their quest to find the meda-morphs for their boss Mr. Exodia, following the tracking
device that Verra was holding.
"They should be...around here...somewhere..." Verra muttered, moving his hands back and forth, scanning the device.
"Well, hurry up!" Valentina hissed, "We don't have all day!"
"I'm hurrying, love," he hissed back.
"Hey, did you here something?" Robert questioned, stopping dead in his tracks.
Valentina and Verra stopped too. "...What do you mean?" Valentina questioned, her eyes rolling from left to right, looking
around.
"It sounded like...metal," Robert whispered.
Sailor Erika banged her left fist onto Meta-Ikki's head. "Idiot!" she hissed angerly.
"Owie.." Meta-Ikki whined softly, rubbing his head with his purple fingertips.
"Quiet!" Rokusho said, annoyed.
"Hey, I just heard something else!" Verra gasped.
"Me too," Valentina agreed.
"Me oh my!" Robert laughed at himself.
Valentina slapped Robert across the head in discust.
"Ow!"
"Idiot," Valentina grumbled, rolling her eyes.
"Hey!" Verra exclaimed, "I found 'em!"
"Where, Verra?"
"Right....there," Verra whispered, pointing towards the bush where Meta-Ikki, SumilKoji, Sailor Erika, NeutraKarin, and Rokusho
were hiding.
"Crud," Meta-Ikki cursed, closing his optics tightly in thought. '(Ikki) What now? We should have just sayed in the shed for the
day, I knew it...'
