MegaMan Battle Network – Memories
Chapter 7 – Fusion
WBuilder: The plot isn't perfect for this but in reality it is just to tie up what would be lose ends later.
"Me," I said shocked, "But I can't, your dad would kill me."
"He'll kill me more readily if he found out I let her die without her been tested," said Sarah.
"But why me?" I said, "He wanted you to test her."
"She needs to have a bond of trust with the navi," said Sarah, "So far, the only navi to earn that trust is the first navi it ever saw. You."
I thought it over, I didn't want to upset Dr. Hikari but…
"How do I do it?" I asked.
"Just touch her and tell her to activate the combination mode," said Sarah.
"Touch her?" I said
"Normally she'd come to you after you gave the order," said Sarah, "But she's in no fit state to do that."
"I don't know," I said.
"Well make your mind up quick," said Sarah, "She isn't as down as we thought."
I looked behind me to see Scyler standing up, the look on her face made network behind her seem darker than the rest. Scratch that, she was absorbing Net City!
"Now or never!" said Sarah activating her DarkSword.
"We can buy you the little time you need," said MegaMan raising his MegaBuster.
"Don't waste it," said ProtoMan, is ProtoBlade in hand.
The three attacked Scyler, all three made good use of BattleChips, but I had a job to do.
I bent down and picked up Squeeze.
"Combine Squeeze!" I ordered.
"Squeeee," went Squeeze as she became pure data which flowed into me.
I felt myself changing, looking down after the transformation I found my plain pink armour had been replaced with blue armour and silver arm pads and knee pads.
Sarah looked over and saw the transformation, all three were wielding swords against Scyler. "Now!" yelled Sarah, the three jumped from Scyler leaving me a clean path towards her.
I ran forwards, everything else seemed to slow down as I shot towards Scyler, even ProtoMan, MegaMan and Sarah moved through the air in slow motion from Scyler, by the time she had noticed me, I held my blade to strike and she only just raised the DarkSword in time to block it.
We parried blows, my newly increased speed giving me an advantage allowing me to get in at least one in four blows, I was moving so fast she hadn't had time to raise her DarkAura yet.
I dived back to recover my breath but noticed that Scyler needed the moment to recover herself too. She looked at me before diving backwards from me and landing a good distance away.
"See how your speed helps you now," she said raising her arms, "Cataclysmic Canyon!"
The ground in Net City shook violently as a huge chasm opened separating us from Scyler, in the distance we heard navis screaming as they clutched the edge of the chasm.
"We'll organise rescue teams," said ProtoMan, "Sarah, Empress, you try and stop her."
"Right," said Sarah as MegaMan and ProtoMan set off in opposite directions, "Now how are we going to get across this?"
"I'm going like this," I said, Squeeze must have known what I meant as moments later, jetpack like wings appeared on my back.
"Impressive," said Sarah, "You mind if I use boring AirShoes?"
"Be my guest," I said as she downloaded the chip.
"Let's go," she said as we flew across the chasm to Scyler.
"Two on one," said Scyler as she activated a DarkSword, "Now that's barely fair."
