My own Battle Network story
Hi! I'm Megaman.Exe! Nice to meet ya!
The Undernet was invaded by the dark power. And what we found out was that Leviathan was messing with the power of the coffin to bring the three deleted Navis who we fought against before in their Dark forms.
Anubis-Necromancees.Exe, Huitzil.Exe and Blizzard-Stagroff.Exe were brought to life, and the others decided to fight against them. So Frogashi and I got to the source of the Dark power.
But to make it worse, Leviathan summoned the souls of the three Navis deleting them again and using their souls to bring the one inside the coffin, Shademan.Exe back to life!
And if we don't stop Shademan, he'll surely destroy both Cyberworld and real world!
Chapter 32. – Seduced by the dark…
BGM: "Dance of Illusions" from Castlevania Symphony of the night.
Shademan laughed as he extended his arms, which suddenly became dark wings. Megaman and Frogashi stood on their grounds on guard as Shademan opened his mouth and released his breath in a high-pitched shriek.
Megaman.Exe: Huo!
Frogashi.Exe: Argh!
Lan: Megaman! Cover your ears now!
Aldo: Frogashi! You too!
But there was no response, the high-pitched scream basically stunned both and the only thing they heard for a second was nothing.
Shademan waved his right wing releasing a group of flaming bats. Megaman and Frogashi stood on guard with arms crossed as barriers formed in front of them. The bats hitting the barriers simply were deleted, Shademan disappeared in mist as he transported behind them.
Megaman.Exe: Frogashi! Behind you!
Shademan trapped Frogashi from behind between his dark arms as he bared his teeth.
Shademan.Exe: Time for a snack! WHEEE!
Aldo: Areasteal! BattleChip in! Download!
Shademan tried to bite Frogashi's neck, but when his fangs were a few inches close, Frogashi's body disappeared with the wind leaving Shademan biting air.
Frogashi reappeared on Megaman's left.
Frogashi.Exe: That was close! I was able to feel those fangs!
Aldo: No problem.
Lan: Our turn! Cybersword! BattleChip in! Download!
Megaman ran lifting his Cybersword to his left ready to attack, but Shademan opened his left wing shooting a big fireball. The action was so fast that Megaman wasn't able to react and the fireball the arm with the Cybersword. Megaman fell to the ground.
Lan: What?
Lan's PET displayed Megaman status, which of course wasn't good.
PET: Megaman.Exe right arm disabled.
Megaman.Exe: I… I can't move my arm!
The Cybersword wore out revealing Megaman's right arm, it was burned and his fingers looked like twitching Spider legs.
Shademan.Exe: How does revenge tastes like Megaman?
Frogashi.Exe: Why you?!?
Frogashi wielded his Katana as he rushed to Shademan, but Frogashi got trapped by a flock of bats.
Frogashi.Exe: What? I can't move!
Shademan.Exe: Do not interfere in my meal, meddlesome frog! Now, where was I? Yes… about to have a fast food dinner… Whee!
Shademan walked slowly to Megaman licking his lips as he raised both arms.
Megaman.Exe: I cannot attack!
Lan: Megaman! Get out of there!
Shademan.Exe: Sorry, but you cannot move!
Shademan's eyes had a dark glare as Megaman eyes went small and big wide opened.
Megaman.Exe: No good! I cannot move!
Shademan.Exe: Now, shall I?
BGM fades
Shademan lifted Megaman by the neck as Megaman feet stopped touching the ground. Shademan's height was incredible.
Shademan.Exe: Now, von appetite… WHEEEE!!!
Lan: MEGAMAN!!!
Shademan opened his mouth as the spit string connecting his fangs broke. He reached for a section of Megaman's neck and the fangs piercing in… Shademan was drinking…
Lan: MEGAMAN!!!
Megaman.Exe: Ugh! Whua! HAAAA!!!
Frogashi.Exe: Megaman!!!
After a while, Shademan's fangs dug out of Megaman's neck. And Shademan threw Megaman's body to hid right. Shademan raised his hands looking at them feeling a new power… flowing through his veins…
Shademan.Exe: This is it! The great power!!! YES! WHEEE!!!
Lan: Megaman! Please respond!
Megaman was unconscious, the only sign that he was still alive was his weak breathing.
Lan: Megamaaaan!
Aldo: This cannot be… Megaman?
Shademan.Exe: Now! Time to unleash the power of the black earth!
Frogashi.Exe: You're not going anywhere!
The bats were holding Frogashi. But his strength was increasing. He broke from the bats and stood hard as he took his Katana.
Frogashi.Exe: This is for Megaman!
Shademan.Exe: Well, I can always use a little dessert. After all, I'm watching my figure. Fireball!
Shademan shot a fireball at Frogashi, but Frogashi made a quick spin move slashing the fireball in two… somehow, I was able to feel the heat of the Fireball. A blaze from it burned a tip of Frogashi's dogi… and it also burned the same tip of my shirt… I felt that Frogashi and I were being one…
Shademan.Exe: No one has been able to split one of my fireballs! You two must be in Full-Synchro!!!
Suddenly, I felt something… like I was able to see through Frogashi's eyes… and from the sudden, our voices became one…
Aldo, Frogashi.Exe: And you don't know yet…
We rushed with a quick jump and slashed a part of his right wing.
Shademan.Exe: Argh! YOU'LL PAY FOR THIS INSOLENCE! WHEEE!!!
Shademan made a quick move grabbing Frogashi's arm and twisting it. There was a heavy crack coming from Frogashi's arm.
Frogashi.Exe: HAAAA!!!
There was a sudden shot of pain through Frogashi's arm as Shademan threw him away. I also felt heavy pain dropping my PET.
Aldo: HAAAA!!! MY ARM!
Lan: Calm down! The broken arm is Frogashi's! You just felt the pain from Full-Synchro!
Shademan.Exe: Now, time to go…
Lan: No! Guys! Hurry to Undernet4! Shademan is trying to leave!
Roll.Exe: On our way!
Dex: Going at it!
The others were on their way as Lan guided them… I looked at my PET seeing as Shademan walked away…
Aldo: Damn! At this rate, the others will be here too late! If there was something I could do!
Suddenly, I looked at my Folder for something I could use… but everything was easily dodge… excepting for a BattleChip I never seen before in my Folder… Its frame was purple and the attack power was pretty high… It was the only choice…
Aldo: Frogashi! How's your other arm!
Frogashi still holding his right arm…
Frogashi.Exe: It's doing fine!
Aldo: Good! I'm going to use a BattleChip!
Frogashi.Exe: Right on!
Aldo: All right! Darkcannon! BattleChip in! Download!
Lan: Darkcannon? WAIT! NO!
Everything became a slow motion plane. Lan trying to stretch his right arm to stop me, Frogashi raising his left arm, and the BattleChip slotting in slowly as both surfaces scratched each other.
Then everything went to normal motion again. Frogashi's left arm turned into a purple-black cannon, and it fired a powerful beam. Shademan turned and saw the beam coming.
Shademan: WHEEE!!!
Shademan was engulfed into the beam, and his screams resonated around the entire Undernet. Then his shadow disappeared in the beam.
"Shademan.Exe deleted"
Shademan was gone.
Aldo: We… we did it!
Lan: FOOL!
Lan grabbed the neck of my T-Shirt as he looked at me with rage.
Lan: What have you done?!?
Aldo: What? What do you mean what have I done?
Lan: You used one!
Aldo: Used one?
Lan: Used a DarkChip!!!
Aldo: What?!? Shademan was deleted! He was about to go and release the Black earth!
Lan: That doesn't mean you had to use a DarkChip to stop him!!!
Maylu: Calm down Lan! He didn't know about the DarkChips! You never explained him! It's not his fault!
Lan: Hmm…
Lan released me as I stared at him with a confused expression…
Lan: You're right… I'm sorry…
Aldo: What… What's going to happen now?
Lan: If you're lucky, nothing will happen… but you two were in Full-Synchro… I hope that doesn't boost the effect of a DarkChip…
Aldo: Then… Frogashi! Can you hear me? Are you okay? Answer me!
There was no response…
Aldo: Frogashi!!!
Suddenly, there was a soft laughter coming from Frogashi…
Frogashi.Exe: Hee hee hee…
For the first time, Frogashi's eyes were open… but in an evil expression…
Lan: No…
The others got to the area in that moment.
Roll.Exe: What happened?
Glyde.Exe: Wait! Don't move! I feel Dark power… coming from Frogashi!
Protoman.Exe: The frog was seduced by the dark!
Aldo: No… No… NOOO!!!
Frogashi.Exe: Hee hee hee…
Aldo: Frogashi! Answer me!!!
Frogashi.Exe: Don't order me anymore you bag of rotten flesh!
Aldo: What?!? You're not Frogashi!
Frogashi.Exe: Dark Frogashi's the name…
BGM: "Eve's piano solo" from Parasite Eve
Aldo: NOOOO!
Foxman.Exe: Wait! Don't you remember us?
Frogashi.Exe: Out of my way!
Foxman.Exe: this cannot be!!!
Frogashi rushed to them with his Katana at hand…but before he could lay his blow, he stopped…
Frogashi.Exe: What? I can't move! You! My stupid NetOp!
I executed a paralyzing program on Frogashi…
Aldo: I'm sorry… but I have to do this…
Frogashi.Exe: No! HAAAA!!!
A sudden charge of electricity ran through Frogashi's body as he lost consciousness.
Aldo: this should settle you down for a few hours. Jack out.
"Frogashi.Exe logging out."
Aldo: So Frogashi was seduced by the dark…
Maylu: Aldo… Is there anything we can do?
Aldo: Lan…
Lan: ……… We have no choice…
Aldo: ……
Brandon: What are you guys going to do?
I tapped a few buttons on my PET, and a small screem was being displayed with a choice on it… Delete Netnavi? Yes or no…
Brandon: Hey! You can't do this! He has been your partner and best friend since a long time!
Aldo: We do not have a choice… Frogashi's been infected by Dark power… and I'm afraid that the Frogashi I know doesn't exist anymore… We do not have much choice…
Brandon: But there be must be a way!
Aldo: ………
Maylu: Please don't do this…
I raised my right index finger between both buttons… My mind drifted away as my finger trembled… and a single tear ran through my cheek…
Aldo: … I'm sorry… Frogashi…
