The Pain Of Loss Chapter 13 – Disturbance of the Peace Part 1
Well, at least now I'm getting SOMEWHAT back into the habit of working on this.
Zero.EXE – Hey, I've got a question...
Death - What's up, Z?
Zero.EXE – In Megaman Battle Network 4, Lan and Mayl just went on their first date at that Castillo place that opened up. Doesn't that open up a plot hole?
Death – Points to the plugged plothole I thought of that. Y'see, it Lan and Mayl only went on their first date there. I've never mentioned anything about a date in this story yet.
Zero.EXE – Then explain why Lan's so nervous...
Death – Hey, I'd be nervous if I went on my first date with a girl, even AFTER I confessed my love for her. So hush now and let me narrate the danged story!!!
"Heheheheheheheh...", cackled a shadowy figure in the depths of Undernet 4. Kali stood at attention, smirking a bit. "It's going as planned, Master. Soon, our organization will have the powers sealed within my pathetic counterpart, and our plan will commence..." The pillar looked over his shoulder, gazing past one of two pillar-like objects protruding from both shoulders. His eyes began to glow a soft pinkish-red color as he turned his head forward once more. "Good... we are still assembling our forces for the major strike against the planet, but within a few months, we'll be ready... It's vital that you retrieve this power. Then, and only then, will the darkness be able to reign supreme." Kali grinned, bowing respectfully. "I will watch over Roll and her allies... and I will retrieve the power when the time is right..." Kali vanished from that point once she finished speaking. The figure stood for a moment more, cackling as a dark aura surrounded him. As the cackling broke into a roaring laugh, he vanished into the darkness.
Back in ACDC 1, Roll sighed, sitting on the edge of the path. Her body had progressed so far because of the power within her, she actually needed changes of clothes. Today, she was wearing a light pink tanktop, and a pair of white shorts. Ankle socks were upon beneath white sneakers with her Navi emblem upon the toes. Her hair was back in it's regular ponytail, and a pendant with her emblem was hanging around her neck. She sighed a bit, looking down at the endless streams of data below. "Kali said I can form my power into a physical state that can be used for all kinds of things... Even reviving Mega... But how'm I supposed to access that power?" While she was speaking with herself, 3 Mettaur viruses were slowly creeping up on her, led by 2 Sparkies. Just as the Sparkies began to charge electricity, and the Mettaurs raised their picks, Roll tapped the ground, sending shockwaves across the path in their direction. Spikes shot up beneath each one, skewering them, and even piercing through the Mettaur's helmets. She looked behind her, watching their data fly into the air. "You'd think that these little guys would learn."
Protoman walked forward, also in a different set of clothes. A red and black sweatshirt was covering his chest, his own Navi Emblem upon it. Black jeans were clinging to his waistline, with matching combat boots on his feet. He wore pitch black sunglasses, covering his eyes, while his hair, too, was held back in a ponytail. "I see these weaklings aren't even worth breaking a sweat anymore." Roll stood, smiling a bit. "Yeah, it's kind of disappointing, but, it's for the best. It just proves I can really hold my own now..." Protoman nodded, smirking a bit. The smirk receded quickly though, sliding his hands into his sweatshirt pocket. "Roll... are you okay? You stayed for a while at the monument yesterday... Everyone was worried about you." Just as Roll was about to speak, a female voice came from behind Protoman. "Don't worry, nothing happened. I was there to watch her."
Protoman's eyes shot wide as he spun around, seeing Kali. She was dressed in identical clothes as Roll, but in place of the white and pink colors, there was black and red. Protoman stood there, glaring at Kali through his sunglasses. He felt something was wrong. Just as he was ready to shift to his battle suit, Roll walked forward, smiling and bowing a bit. "It's good to see you again, Kali. What's up?" Protoman blinked, looking to Roll out the corner of his eyes, not shifting his body once. 'She knows this Navi...? ... Hn. I'll keep my guard up... Something about this girl doesn't feel right at all...' Kali walked forward, embracing Roll. "Nothing. I just thought I'd come and see how you were doing with that power we talked about." Roll sighed, shutting her eyes. "I've been thinking about it, and I haven't come up with a thing... I tried concentrating it between my hands, like this..." As she spoke, Roll held her hands out, cupped and parallel to each other, about a foot of distance between. "... but, I collapsed and lost the charge. I'm just not strong enough right now..." Kali nodded, a dead serious look upon her face. She needed that power, and she needed it soon.
'Hm... maybe all her power needs... is a little more persuasive action for it to activate...' She held her hands behind her back, her left hand grasping her right wrist. Her right hand remained open as a black cyber flame appeared. It glowed a light red, then yellow, then black once more. Once this three-color phase was complete, the flame vanished. In ACDC 2, the flame appeared, just slightly taller than Glyde's average height. A dark figure formed within, hanging limp in the air. The flame finally gave off one bright flash of light, then vanished. A Navi was left in it's place, a sinister Navi of whom Megaman had fought before. He floated up, his head low. He remained like this, drawing the attention of a crowd of Navis and programs. The Navi raised his head, grinning evilly. In that spot, Quickman had been resurrected as Quickman Omega. He laughed maniacally, sending 10 Quick Boomerangs out, slicing up at least 30 Navis and Programs alike. The screams could probably be heard all the way to Sci Lab, as the remaining Navis and Programs began to disperse. Roll's eyes shot wide as she heard the blood curdling cries for help. She nodded to Protoman, and he, in return, nodded back. Both shifted to their battle outfits. Roll looked to Kali, a serious look on her face. "Stay here!!! It's too dangerous over there!!!"
As Roll and Protoman rushed off to ACDC 2, Kali stood there, a look of concern upon her face. She then yelled out, cupping her hands around her mouth. "ROLL!!! WATCH OUT FOR YOURSELF OUT THERE!!!" She lowered her hands to her sides again, watching as they ran into the next part of the server. She smirked, crossing her arms beneath her breasts. "Do be careful... I can't have you dying yet. Not until you get your power for me, little Roll..." She vanished, appearing in her battle uniform on a path in ACDC 2 high above the main. She wore a cloak around herself to conceal her identity. She watched as Protoman and Roll rushed in. Quickman turned, blinking. He then grinned, cracking his knuckles. "Well, well, well... if it isn't Megaman's acquaintances. How fortunate... I was going to hunt him down to exact my revenge, but destroying you two should suffice!!!" Roll narrowed her eyes, a light pink aura forming around her. "... he's dead... you can't get to him now, Quickman..."
Quickman blinked, then started to snicker. He then burst out laughing, holding his sides. "HAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!! Well, it looks like someone saved me the trouble!!! But you, little girl... you looked so sad when you said that..." Quickman smirked, forming 8 Quick Boomerangs between his fingers. "Don't worry... you'll meet him again... ONCE I DELETE YOU BOTH!!!" Immediately, he launched his boomerangs forth. Roll just stood there, her eyes wide. Protoman jumped infront of her and formed his shield, repelling 7 of the boomerangs, the 8th cutting through his arm. He winced, then let his shield fall as the boomerangs looped back to Quickman.
Quickman blinked as he saw the blood trailing down Protoman's arm. He smirked, forming another Quick Boomerang. "Ah, so the might Protoman isn't as invincible as he thought... Don't worry, for you, I'll just save your head as a prize. Once I delete the most powerful Navi on the Net, no one will get in my way ever again!!!" Protoman smirked, a Hero Sword forming. "I won't go as quickly as you think..." Immediately, he lunged forward, beginning to hack and slash at top speed at Quickman. Quickman yawned, repelling all of Protoman's attacks with his right hand and the Quick Boomerang it held. "If you want REAL speed, allow me to demonstrate!!!" Quickman vanished just as Protoman performed a vertical slash. Protoman's eyes went wide as he felt something pierce his back. He looked at his chest, only to see the tip of a golden blade, drenched in his blood. Quickman smirked as he withdrew the boomerang, causing Protoman to collapse to the ground, unconscious.
Roll's eyes shot wide as she stood there, her hands clasped over her mouth. She'd just sent an e-mail to Chaud and Mayl, requesting their help. "P... Proto..." Quickman turned to face her, grinning demonically. "Don't worry, little girl... you and friend here can face total deletion together..."
