~Chapter 15~









~Seeking Revenge~








"I'm back!" Rokusho shouted out, as he stepped inside of the 15th floor in the old white building. Rokusho looked around, and saw nobody was around. If
he could have, he would have raised an eyebrow. He took a couple of steps forward, his silk cape flowing a little in the wind of the open window...which,
was silently being watched by two rather bruised rubber-robos, Shrimplips and Gillgirl. Rokusho looked around, and saw in the corner of the room, a door
slightly ajar, and some voices..four voices in fact, and with each statement, two of the voices would speak.

No doubt they were two medamorphs.

Rokusho walked inside of the room, and saw something that made Rokusho's red optics widen in surprise.

Sailor Erika and SumiliKoji swabbling! And you thought Shrimplips and Gillgirl were bad...

But it wasn't nessisarily that they WERE fighting, since SumiliKoji did get in fights with Meta-Ikki a lot..and Sailor Erika didn't have a clean record, either.
It was what they were fighting about.

"He is NOT an idiot, SumiliKoji!"

"Well, you've got to admit, he can be a bonehead!"

"That doesn't mean you can put Meta-Ikki down, SumiliKoj! He's done a lot of things for us, and now he's in trouble. And here YOU are, making fun of him! I'm
sick of it!"

"Please, stop fighting, you two!"

"Stay out of this, NeutraKarin!"

"Hey, don't yell at her, Sailor Erika! What did she ever do to you?!"

Rokusho walked over to Prof.Sakaru, who was working on the control more, seeming to be unfaised by the medamorph's debate. "Um, how long have they been fighting here..?"

Prof. Sakaru looked up. "Oh, it's you, Rokusho! You got the flower, too! But..well, they've been on each other's nerves for about half an hour, and we tried stopping
them..but, we just gave up, and went to do other stuff, except NeutraKarin; she's still trying to break 'em up."

Rokusho exasperately sighed. He walked over to the two medamorphs, who didn't seem to notice him as he was almost beside the two. But, Neutrakarin wasn't the one fighting.
"Hi, Rokusho!" she said brightly.

Rokusho nodded at NeutraKarin, letting her know that he heard. He turned his attention towards SumiliKoji and Sailor Erika, sighing once more. Then, he sliced his sword arm
down in front of them, startling them, and cutting them off from throwing some insults at each. "Alright, break it up, you two. We got more important things to do than get
everyone pissed off at each other."

Sailor Erika and SumiliKoji stared at each other for a while, then turned away from each other.

"Fine, now that THAT'S settled," Rokusho huffed, "I got the flower right here, Prof. Sakaru.."












Meta-Ikki got up, his breathing pattern returning to normal. He started walking towards the door, his legs squeaking a bit as he walked, probably from exhastion. He had just fought
three battles- two with SumiliKoji and Sailor Erika, the other with his heart. He didn't want to hurt them..but his mind said to. He also had his anger fuel him up a bit, which made
him even more tired than before.

"Hey, where are you going?"

Meta-Ikki looked back, to see Valentina staring him down, waiting for an answer. "I don't want to do this anymore. Where's my room?"

Valentina sighed. "Down the hall to your left, it's a big blue door with a black door handle. Your can't miss it."

Meta-Ikki nodded, and trudged out of the room. Valentina dropped her fake smile, and stayed to make some adjustments to the virtual reality room.


Meta-Ikki walked along the left side of the long and darkened hallway for a while, as it seemed endless. Meta-Ikki groaned at this, seeing many rooms, but none like the door Valentina
had described.

"She must have gotten it wrong..I see blue doors with brown handles, and green doors with black handles, but no blue doors with black handles!!" Meta-Ikki ranted quietly to himself. He
continued to walk, and gave up after a few more minutes. He sighed, and fell to the ground. "This building is like a maze..!" he said to himself. His legs were even more tired than
before, and he looked ahead of himself, his optics half closed. 'I'm so tired..'

His crimson optics widened when he saw a blue door with a black handle not too far away. "About time that damn door showed up..!" he shouted, and stood up. His legs gave out a squeak,
reminding him that his energy level was very low. He walked over towards the door, and opened it shakily, and looked around. There was a brown sheeted bed, and a table with a lamp and
clock on it. 7:00pm. He sighed, feeling some relaxation flow through him, and didn't even take the time to lay down on the bed. He leaned against the wall, and slid down, falling asleep
soon afterwards.




~Dream~


Darkness surrounded every turn, but a pair of ice blue eyes shone brightly. They looked evil at first, but you'd know that they weren't after taking a second glance. Then, a booming voice
came-




~End Dream~


Meta-Ikki's optics snapped open, giving off a faint green glow, but faded back to crimson. He blinked a few times, panting a little, and had forgotten where he was. It sank in within a minute, as
he muttered, calming himself down, "Oh yea, I'm here," He looked over at the clock on his bedside. 8:00am. He'd been out like a light for a while now. He sighed to himself, and then the dream came
to mind.

"What was that..?" he whispered to himself. He remember only a few words, and a pair of eyes. The words were evil, medamorphs, and final battle. He tried to put them together, then his optics narrowed.
"The final battle will come.." he said to himself, "With evil. The medamorphs are the evil. I MUST destroy them!" He clenched his fists together, "And I won't wait any longer. I will go. Now." He got up,
and walked towards the door. He opened it up, and looked around. Nobody around. He sighed in releif, but as soon as he closed the door behind him, he got a headache, a big one. He softly yelled out in
pain, and fell to his knees, shaking. He started to breath heavily, trying to fumble for the door handle behind him..

He froze. What was he doing? Just because he was in pain, didn't mean he was about to back down just yet. He gulped, and flung his hand back in front of himself, and tried to get back up. He got up,
taking a few steps forward, causing more pain to himself, and let out a small grunt. 'What's going on here..?' he wondered, 'Never mind, I've got to go on..' He continued to take slow steps until he reached
the exit door, and when he got out, the pain was barely noticable. He smirked. 'Ha, no pain ever stopped me! Now...hey, where are they anyways?' He growled in frustration. 'Now what? I guess...I need to relie
on my instincts...if I have any.' He closed his optics tightly, and went over all the places he's ever been...after a few minutes, he stopped at an old broken down white building, one of which he had passed by.
'I guess that's the place,' he opened his crimson optics, and smirked a little. He then dashed off towards the direction the building was in, not daring to stop anytime soon.




"Follow him," growled Exodia from the top of the building, to Robert, Verra, and Valentina. They all nodded, and left the room.




"It's finally done!" exclaimed Prof. Sakaru, holding up the control.

"And it only took us.." started Rocat.

"..All night," sighed Merodi.

"Well, I say let's get going!" shouted Sailor Erika.

"Wait a minute," said Prof. Sakaru, "I need to gather some materials for the trip."

"Like what?" NeutraKarin asked.

"Oh, you know, spare medaparts, healing tools, pepper spray.."

"Pepper spray?! Why in bloody hell would you need pepper spray?" asked SumiliKoji, surprised.

"Hey, we're breaking into the building, people will be attacking us, so we'll need pepper spray!"

"O...k..."

"Anyways, it won't take very long, so..just entertane yourselves, ok?" with that, Prof. Sakaru walked away.

"Oh well, I guess I'll just..go outside," sighed Sailor Erika, as she walked out of the room.



Meta-Ikki continued to race towards the white building agily, but found that his legs part was starting to
tire out, and was slowly loosing power. 'Ugh, stupid old style parts! They must have been lying on the shelf
forever..' he thought angerly to himself, 'But I've got to go on! I must destroy the medamorphs..and Sailor
Erika. Oh, god, I'm not in love with her!..Anymore...but..ugh, why am I thinking this way?! I destroyed her in
the training room, I can destroy her in real life!..If I can fool my heart..' he continued to fight with himself
for the rest of the way, and slowly but surely, started to see a white building in the distance..



Sailor Erika sighed as she walked out of Prof. Sakaru's building, and sat down beside the door, her knees held up to
her metal chest. She looked at the ground, and saw the dirt ground peacefully laid out, and even a few ants crawling
across it. Sailor Erika blinked a few times, then another bug came into view; a hercules beetle. This made her a bit
sad, since it remined her of Meta-Ikki. "Why can't I get him out of my head?" she murmured quietly to herself. She put
her hand down in front of it, and it crawled onto it. Sailor Erika half smiled, and lifted her hand into the air, letting
the beetle fly away silently. Sailor Erika watched it fly away, when something caught her eye in the distance. It was yellow,
and had black hair, much like someone else she knew...

"Meta-Ikki!" She cried out happily, standing up. Her half smile widened into a big grin, and she ran towards Meta-Ikki.

Meta-Ikki's crimson optics widened when she saw the SLR-type medamorph, and stopped as she ran towards him. "Meta-Ikki! I was so
worried!" she cried out, stopping in front of him.

Meta-Ikki stood there stunned, not knowing what to say. 'She's your enemy, you have to destroy her!' one voice in his head spoke.

'I can't..'

'You have to!'

Meta-Ikki's narrowed his optics a bit angerly. 'I must.'

Sailor Erika froze at Meta-Ikki's glare, and realizing for the first time that his optics were no longer the emerald green ones she
learned to love, but a pair of crimson optics that frightened her. And not to mention that glare...

"Umm...Meta-Ikki?"
