My own Battle Network Story.
My Dairy.
The city was big, but it was even bigger with all the time we had than the field trip. We got our fortune told with Miu, a physic girl who has a fortune house.
Everyone's fortunes were about the N-1 Grand Prix. Of course, she used the mind language. The warrior of white hair of course is Chaud. Friendship battle, maybe Lan vs. Dex and me vs. Brandon. Of course, knowing Gutsman's strength, he was going to throw his opponents like a baseball player making home runs.
But then, she felt something with me…
She asked me to go to the back with her where she used a secret rite to open my mind and clear my dream. After reviewing the dream, she told me that it isn't a dream… it is a vision of the future… something that will happen… both near and far.
She told me to not tell anyone about it… specially Lan…
So we went to Sal's restaurant to eat a good taste of Traditional Japanese food.
After that, we just went back home and watched TV. After that we ate dinner and went to bed… But I wasn't able to sleep. I just closed my eyes and tried not to think about it.
Still… Megaman?… Netnavi with his face? …"You will not stop me"… The X… Xavier corp?
Chapter 19. – Enter Ninja of Darkness
Next morning was a pretty normal day. We still were in Christmas vacation and very close to returning to school. Everyone was doing their stuff. Megaman and Lan were training for the N-1 Grand Prix. Of course, they were fighting against us. A friendly battle to improve our strategies.
Lan: I guess I need to improve that combo I'm working on.
Aldo: Looks so. You are a good training mate.
Lan: Thanks.
Aldo: No problem.
Yai and Maylu were training together at Yai's mansion in the Netnavi trainer program she got.
Yai: Well, It is Roll's turn. How hard you want the simulator?
Maylu: How about level 7 Roll?
Roll.Exe: Sounds great to me!
Yai: Well then, level 7 it is!
Maylu: Right Roll! Attack!
Roll.Exe: Roll Blast!
Brandon and Dex were training together at Dex's house. Brandon has improved a lot during these last days of training, so he of course will be a tough one to beat.
Foxman.Exe: Foxdolls!
As Foxman wave his left hand, a bunch of copies of him appeared from nowhere moving around to distract the opponent.
Brandon: Well, looks like you managed to increase the number of Fox dolls.
Foxman.Exe: Thanks, now let's practice Fox dolls-Shuriken combo.
Dex: Hey! Good one! You ain't bad Kid.
Dex lifted his right hand and smacked Brandon's back. He used to much strength on that, so he ended up smacking Brandon.
Brandon: Ouchies!
Dex: Oops! Sorry about that.
Brandon: It's Ok.
Thori was training with the Virus simulator at his house.
So everyone was getting ready for it. But one person was getting ready… for an infiltration…
Tron.Exe: Are you sure this is going to work?
Ginger: Of course it will! We just infiltrate into Aldo's server and check what's he's doing.
Tron.Exe: Isn't that illegal?
Ginger: Hmmm… You got me there. Did you brought the Servbot programs?
Tron.Exe: Ready and packed.
Ginger: Good! They will work as maintenance programs saying "Detour. Working on area." Wearing their construction helmets.
Tron.Exe: Good plan Ginger!
Ginger: Ho ho ho! I am a genius!
Tron.Exe: How are we gonna get there?
Ginger: Easy. We get to the square and take a Cyber bus to ACDC 1. Then we just walk to the Hikari main server and get into Aldo's server!
Tron.Exe: You have been studying those blueprints very carefully, haven't you?
Ginger: Study your target carefully and you might success!
Tron.Exe: Well, if you say so.
Ginger: All right then! Jack in! Tron.Exe! Charm!
So Ginger's evil plan to spy me was being executed.
Good thing… Now you will face justice by the bad guys… Ironic. Isn't it?
Meanwhile in the square.
Bgm: "Luca" From Final Fantasy X.
It was a normal day for the people at the square, Navis everywhere and programs doing their stuff.
Between all the navis ad programs walking around, there was one in a dark blue cloak. Only his mouth and his left arm were visible. He was walking on the third floor of the shopping mall area. When he turned down and saw Tron heading to the transport bay.
???: Hmm… Fujiwara's Netnavi… Sounds like nice bait…
So he turned and went to the stairs to follow Tron.
Tron was waiting for the Cyber Bus on area 27 heading to ACDC 1. It looked mostly like a New York subway station with posters everywhere. There were posters of new drinks and products, and an update of the news board. "Wanna test your skills as a Netbattler? Want to be the best? Then Sign up for the N-1 Grand Prix coming soon!"
There were also other Navis waiting for the bus. Some looked big and tough and others were tiny and cute, almost childish like Iceman. There were also pets for the programs. Rush was sitting at Tron's left. Rush turned to her and smelled her.
Tron.Exe: What the? Oh… You like me?
Rush.Exe: Woof!
Bgm: "Yuna's theme" From Final Fantasy X.
There was a sound coming from Tron's backpack. It sounded like someone laughing.
Servbot: Hee hee hee. It tickles!
Tron.Exe: He just likes us.
Servbot: But it tickles!
Rush.Exe: Woof!
Tron.Exe: Anyways, what's your name little fellah?
Tron checked the medal on Rush's neck. It was silver medal that had the name "Rush.Exe: carved on it.
Tron.Exe: So your name is Rush uh?
Rush.Exe: Woof!
Tron.Exe: Nice to meet you! I'm Tron. And He's one of my Servbots.
Rush.Exe: Woof!
Well, now Tron had a new friend. She didn't had so many friends, so she felt quite uneasy, but also happy of having a new friend.
Suddenly, the Navi in the dark blue coat appeared on her right and asked her a simple question.
???: Mind if I sit here miss?
Tron.Exe: Of course not. Go ahead.
The Navi sat on Tron's right. Tron and Rush felt a strange feeling from that Navi. But maybe it was just a cold of something.
The Cyber Bus arrived from the left of the station. It had big letters saying: "ACDC 1" That bus was going to ACDC 1.
Tron stood up, and Rush followed her.
Tron.Exe: You're coming too? Well then, let's go together!
Rush.Exe: Woof!
Both went together to the same spot of the bus. It was a big three-floor knight bus like the ones in England, and like the one from "Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban." The mysterious Netnavi sat near to the driver's area.
Tron and Rush sat near to the window where you were able to see a good view of the Net city network, big buildings and Cybervehicles everywhere. Also the Network locals of some good stores and shops including Higsby's shop.
Ginger: Well then. looks like we got a friend here Tron.
Tron.Exe: I know. And he's cute! Even friendly!
Rush.Exe: Woof!
The other Netnavis were talking about daily stuff. "How's the weather?" "How's your NetOp. doing? Are you ready for the N-1 Grand Prix?" Stuff like that.
Suddenly, a strange shake shook the entire bus as it drifted away from the road.
Bgm: "Peril" From Final Fantasy X
Tron.Exe: What? What's going on here? Ginger? Can you hear me?
But there was no answer. Whatever was controlling the bus surely cut the communications between NetOps. And Netnavis.
Tron.Exe: Where is the bus going?
Suddenly, The entire landscape turned into darkness as the Bus was being teleported somewhere. Then the darkness turned into a empty storage somewhere in the network.
Tron.Exe: Where are we?
All the other Netnavis were screaming and wondering where they were. Of course, Tron's curious natures made her do the first thing when you're lost. Check your surroundings.
Tron.Exe: Well, if we want to know where we are, we need to check the area. You with me Rush?
Rush: Woof!
Tron.Exe: Servbots! Come out!
Tron opened her backpack as the tiny Servbots turned into small sized programs. They looked like Lego-men.
Servbot34.Exe: Yes miss Tron?
Tron.Exe: We're lost. Please investigate the area! All of you!
Servbot35.Exe: Yes miss Tron!
The forty Servbots scattered as they scanned the surroundings. That had to be a big warehouse for holding a bus like that. Suddenly, one of the Servbots found a clue.
Servbot25.Exe: Miss Tron! We found a clue!
Tron ran to Servbot25 as she looked at the thing he found.
Tron.Exe: What is it?
Servbot25 rubbed the dusty wall revealing a crystal hole. It was a window leading outside, but there was no way to open it.
Tron.Exe: Looks like the Netnavis won't be able to use Battlechips in here due to the communications cut. Wait a second!
But she also looked at something outside. It was the Cyber Sea! And another warehouse lied on the right of that one, and a big billboard on the dock. "Welcome to Net city" It was Net city's Harbor!
Tron.Exe: Great! Now we know where we are… How are we gonna get out of here?
Rush.Exe: Woof! Woof!
Tron.Exe: What you say? You can get help?
Rush.Exe: Woof!
Tron.Exe: Good! Go get help! Please!
Rush.Exe: Woof!
Rush opened a hole on the ground as he sank in it. The cartoonist hole closed leaving Tron in the darkness of the warehouse.
Tron.Exe: Good luck little fellah…
Meanwhile in Lan's house.
Dex and Brandon already got done with their training and went to Lan's house to check our new skills.
Dex: Yo man!
Lan: Hi guys!
Brandon: Foxman became a lot stronger than before. How's Frogashi?
Aldo: Well, he also became stronger! Megaman is a great Training mate!
Dex: But also Gutsman gave a little of problem to Foxman!
Brandon: Gutsman is stronger than I expected! I had to use some ticks to defeat him.
Dex: Which of course caused me a headache guessing who was the real Foxman.
Lan: And we had a great sword battle.
Aldo: I guess we're almost ready for any opponent now!
Brandon: Bring them to me!
Suddenly, a hole appeared on Gutsman's chest.
Gutsman.Exe: Guts! Rush?
Rush came out of Gutsman's hole. He looked really worried.
Rush.Exe: Woof! Woof!
Megaman.Exe: Rush? What is it buddy?
Rush.Exe: Woof! Woof!
Bgm: "Bad situation" from Megaman Battle Network 4
Megaman.Exe: What? captive Netnavis in the Bay harbor area of Net city?
Rush.Exe: Woof! Woof!
Megaman.Exe: Tron is with them?!?
Aldo: Ginger!
There was a hard knocking on the door. It was Ginger worried to death.
Ginger: You have to help me! I suddenly lost contact of Tron and…
Aldo: She's captive at the bay harbor area of Net city!
Ginger: What?!? How?!?
Lan: Doesn't matter! We need to rescue them!
Foxman.Exe: This sounds like a trap guys.
Frogashi.Exe: Trap… or no trap. We need to save them!
Megaman.Exe: Frogashi is absolutely right! We need to get busy!
Lan: Let's go to Scilab! That's the closest spot!
Aldo: And bring Battlechips! This might be a trap as Foxman said!
Brandon: Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!
So we rushed to the subway station and went to Scilab. Scilab was a big research institute at the bay close to the Square central computer central.
Brandon: Question. How are we gonna get in?
Lan: I'm allowed by Dad… but what about all of you?
Aldo: Damn! This is when we need official permission like from…
Chaud: So you too are here for the Captive Netnavis?
Chaud rushed from our backs. He also knew about it and as the slickest DCPD Detective, he rushed to the action.
Lan: Chaud!
Chaud: Miss Fujiwara's Netnavi is also with them. If we wait here any longer, we don't know what might happen! Follow me! I will need the most support I can get!
Lan: On your lead!
We followed Chaud to the Water division o Scilab. We got thru the labs thanks to Chaud's Official Netbattler Title. So there we were, the Harbor main server. We just had to Jack in and check it out.
Aldo: Let's do it! Jack in! Frogashi.Exe! Transmit!
Lan: Jack in! Megaman.Exe! Power up!
Brandon: Jack in! Foxman.Exe! Booya!
Dex: Jack in! Gutsman.Exe! Crush them!
Chaud: Jack in! Protoman.Exe! No mercy!
Our Netnavis reached the Harbor area like bolts of lightings. It was a dense place and it was night already.
Aldo: I guess is already night here.
Chaud: Time passed differently from the real world and the cyber world in here. Maybe it just took a night time environment to make this place even creepier.
Lan: Well then! Let's search those Netnavis!
But when the Netnavis took the first step, Foxman's ears got pointy meaning a bad feeling.
Foxman.Exe: Guys! Stand back!
A few shurikens landed very close to the Netnavis feet. The Netnavis turned up. There was a shadow in the top of one of the warehouses. It was a Netnavi covered in a dark clue cloak and he had a shuriken on his hand.
???: Well. The great Megaman is here, and his friends tough enough to defeat my comrades.
Megaman.Exe: Comrades? You mean the guardians?
Bgm: "Seymour's ambition" From Final Fantasy X
???: Correct. Made Harpuia to run away, defeated Leviathan for now and destroyed Fenrir's kamikaze virus.
Frogashi.Exe: Enough about them! Who the hell are you?
???: Oh, the frog who defeated Leviathan. But I do not want you. I shall answer your question.
The Netnavi lifted his left arm and grabbed his coat. He pulled it throwing it away as the air played with it as it fell.
Phantom.Exe: My name is Phantom. The fourth guardian of Master Xavier, they call me the Ninja of Darkness.
Foxman.Exe: A ninja Uh?
Megaman.Exe: You're the one who captured those Netnavis!
Ginger: Tron…
Aldo: Enough! Free them! Or else!
Phantom.Exe: Do not try my patience. I planted a set of bombs thru the Warehouse where they are. And I will activate them if you don't hand Megaman to me now! I am not as merciful as the others.
Gutsman.Exe: You are not taking Megaman with you Guts!
Frogashi.Exe: Zero is not here, so we gotta protect you!
Foxman.Exe: Stop guys! We will handle this one!
Frogashi.Exe: Foxman?
Aldo: Brandon! Are you sure about this?
Brandon: Ha! He's a Ninja! This should be fair and square! Besides, I wanna test Foxman's new abilities!
Lan: If you say so.
Megaman.Exe: Well then,, we will look for the captive Netnavis!
Frogashi.Exe: You seem pretty determined Foxman… Good luck. Kick his ass!
Foxman.Exe: I will.
Frogashi and the others turned and ran away searching thru the Harbor.
Phantom.Exe: So you will fight against me? Fox?
Foxman.Exe: This should be a ninja Battle you creep!
Brandon: Guess we're up now! Foxman! Ready to show him what we're made of?
Foxman.Exe: Ready anytime!
Phantom.Exe: You will have a slow and painful death!
Brandon's real battle is about to begin. Now we shall see how strong Foxman has become.
