Chapter Four: Forced Belief

Leaning back in his large recliner, Eugene contemplated how he would achieve
the Lervingthis' goal. The purple crystal refracted its many facets from the desk
lamp, illuminating the room with equally mesmerizing spotlights. He could feel the
darkness that it harnessed, the power it held. He held it by the end of the necklace it
laced around, letting the lights twirl and twinkle in a dazzling display around his
office.

Eugene was dying. He could feel the holy, gallant knight that he had always been slip
out of him. When he was the top NetBattler twelve years ago, he was nothing but
the protector of all. He swallowed his pride so greatly that it blinded him from the
evils that stirred in the world. It grew so heavy that when he saw the successes of
Lan Hikari, Eugene's heart and soul was blackened. And now the consequence would
be dealt.

And I give myself to you, damned crystal. You can feel that hatred can't you? There
would have been nothing more that I would have wanted than to be in Hikari's place.
He had Mayl, and having her would have suited me fine. But it never would have
happened, even after she and Lan split. And now, I am the ringleader of the greatest
Net Mafia in all existence. All this power and these followers and worshipers, yet
never have I been so lonely. Never so lonely...

Eugene clasped his hands around Lervingthis. He could see the bright light, the light
that was his soul, exiting his body. As it flew higher, as it should have, the moon
crystal gleamed. Immediately the holiness of Eugene Chaud was pulled into the relic,
swirling as the light became darkness.

Eugene stood up from his executive's chair, breathing loudly as though he had just
awakened. He placed the crystal back around his neck, taking comfort that the
nagging, holy side of him was sealed forever. His eyes flickered into hateful, pale
lavender, twin orbs that would command the army that would scour the Earth for the
sealed creators of Lervingthis.

Lervingthis had a sense of pity, and that pity was directed at Shin. She had so much
potential, but she cast it all the way. Perhaps it was her childish innocence that
allowed her to resist against the crystal. Either way, it didn't matter anymore.

When the child was with the crystal, Shin did not know how to feel. She knew
nothing but survival, and was pretty much a mere animal living on the streets. She
spoke no languages, nor did she need to. So it was easy implanting all the darkness
within her, so delectably simple that Shin didn't know how to act any other way.
Shin somehow managed to gain a conscience however. That was what disrupted
everything. Lervingthis' deduction was that all human children carried a conscience,
and it would never make that mistake again. Lervingthis untaught all that evil that it
had from Shin, leaving only the good. That way, Shin's young conscience would
painfully rot because she would feel responsible for all the evil things she had done.
Of course, that was not true, but it sufficed Lervingthis. Shin would think no more
evil thoughts, but she would suffer forever. At least until some unfortunate person
found her and in fact, was one of her parents.

Lervingthis gleamed, turning its focus towards the task at hand. It commanded a
new, more stable host now. Eugene tapped the intercom and ordered, "Miyu, Dex,
get in here. We have some planning to do."

----------

Shadowman woke Mayl up. After talking the night before, she seemed to have slept
contentedly. "Mayl, get up. Your friends will be here soon."

At that point, Mayl snapped awake. "What? Friends?"

"Megaman, Roll, Yai, Protoman, Meijin and Gateman. They've been following us since
we first took off."

"And you want me to get up so we can leave?"

"No, I'm leaving you here."

Mayl drew a confused expression on her face. Before she could ask anything else,
Megaman and the others burst through the woods and into the clearing.

"Mayl! I knew I'd heard your voice!" Roll exclaimed as she ran up and hugged her
partner. Megaman ran past them and stood guardedly between them and
Shadowman, buster cannon leveled.

"Nice to finally meet you again, Megaman," Shadowman remarked as he bowed
courtly.

"Do you think I would forgive you that easily?" Megaman snapped angrily. He fired
his buster cannon, which Shadowman easily slapped the attack down with a quick
swipe of his katana. Before Shadowman could recover, Mega shot again, this time at
his opponent's wrist.

Shadowman dropped his katana and grasped his hand in anguish.

"Megaman, stop!" Mayl found herself shouting.

"He killed everyone in that Anti-Navi tribe! Do you think that is forgivable?"

"I did not hurt anyone. We merely passed through, and when they wouldn't give us a
place to stay, I stole a horse for Mayl," Shadowman retorted.

Mayl nodded. "It's true!"

"If it wasn't him, then who did it?" Meijin inquired.

"The same Navi that burnt down ACDC Town," replied a frosty voice. A patch of mist
behind Shadowman solidified, revealing another Navi Megaman had fought before:
Freezeman.

Behind him, the trees seemed to bend their branches low, and out stepped a young
woman in a green cloak that hugged her body. She threw back her hood, revealing
curled, and shoulder length hair.

"Sal?" Megaman asked in amazement. "I thought you died when SciLabs was
destroyed."

"I barely made it," she commented as she leapt down from the tree and walked next
to Shadowman. "And don't discredit Freezeman. He is no longer the Navi you knew,
Megaman. ACDC was destroyed, and by the one he, Shadowman, Madoi, and I have
been trying to stop."

"Madoi? That woman that hacked into the DenTown network and sent me and Roll on
an bomb-rigged bus?" Mayl asked in disbelief.

"Yes, me." An incredibly voluptuous woman stepped out from the shadows, running a
hand through her long, pink hair. Madoi seemed more of a model than a fighter, but
Mayl knew personally how deadly she could be. "And together, my guess is that
everyone calls us the Elementals."

"The Elementals are supposed to be the ones who awaken to restore balance to
unbalanced dimensions. Since when did put kidnapping into their repertoire?"
Megaman retorted. "Why did you take Mayl?"

"Because when Lan and Miyu were fighting, Miyu could sense people's spirits
because she is an Elemental. We all can see another's spirits, and what each person
thinks is the most important part of your life. Well, Lan isn't exactly going to give us
what we want most, so we took what mattered to him most: Mayl," Madoi explained.
"That thing we're after? It's Zergniethil, the crystal of Syrpiektre. It alone has the
ability to stop the source of the paradox in our dimension."

Megaman and the others stared blankly, still not comprehending. Sighing, Madoi
continued, "Alright kids, gather 'round the campfire for the morning ghost story. Let
Grandpa Freezeman tell you all about it."

Freezeman scowled at Madoi, but he let it go. He explained emphatically. "At one
time, four evil, celestial beings fought for power over all the dimensions in existence.
Each one entailed their own set of demons, zombies, monsters, horrors, and other
countless minions. Eventually, one of these dark forces created a seal, the IceFire
Sanctuary, and bound the other three within it. One of these sealed forces was
Dekargon, the leader of the Gorgon Goddesses. In her final moments, she created a
crystal that beheld the dark essence of her, calling it Lervingthis. The crystal is a
sentient, living thing with the ability to influence its current bearer's actions. It is so
evil that the very holiness of one's soul is absorbed into it, giving it strength.

"Lervingthis' sole purpose is to locate the IceFire Sanctuary and revive its master.
World War Two was caused because of this. Initially, the crystal was too weak to
seek its master. Eleven million people seemed to work well, and all the holy energy
of the Jews was perfect. But, when the crystal finally found the Sanctuary, the Allied
Forces disrupted the ceremony of revival. The Earth was spared by mere minutes;
while countless other dimensions have been destroyed because of it.

"Now, the entity that imprisoned the others for the sake of power was called
Syrpiektre, the wolf spirit. It knew what Dekargon had done, so Syrpiektre created a
crystal of its own to maintain the throne in which it stood: Zergniethil. Zergniethil is
pretty much the opposite of Lervingthis, other than the fact that it will stop at
nothing to maintain the control of Syrpiektre, whether if it means killing ten or ten
billion. Now, whenever Lervingthis disrupts the equilibrium of the dimensions,
Zergniethil activates to destroy stop it. The Hikari family was the last line of people
to hold the power of Zergniethil. Lervingthis has awakened, and because Lan does
not know his task nor his duty, it is up to us to take Zergniethil."

For a moment, no one spoke as they absorbed the enormity of the situation. The
break of silence was a wince of pain from Shadowman. Everyone looked over to him,
wondering what had hurt him.

"It's nothing," he replied as he removed his left hand from his other wrist. The place
where Megaman had shot him was bleeding profusely.

Sal immediately went to his side. "Why didn't you say anything? You could have an
infection! You aren't fully Navi anymore, you know that..." She began sucking out the
blood that was in there and muttered something the others couldn't hear. A patch of
herbs suddenly grew where the blood used to be. Sal quickly crushed the herbs with
her boot and placed it over the wound, setting it with a blade of grass that she
seemed to have placed a spell upon.

"Why are you bleeding, anyway?" Megaman asked.

"There are Elementals for each dimension. If the disruption had taken place in the
Internet, Shadowman and I would have awakened as the Elementals of the Internet,
but because we are now a part of the EarthNet, we are part human. That makes
Madoi and Sal part Navi," Freezeman explained.

"But Wood, Electricity, Heat and Water are elements of the Internet. What about
Earth?"

"The two elements of Earth are Depletion and Luminosity. The Elementals of those
are supposed to be opposite-gender partners. Miyu Kuroi and Skullman represent
depletion. Ms. Millions and Snakeman could have been a candidate for Luminosity,
but Ms. Millions passed a long time ago. The only other known candidates were Yai
and Glyde, but with Glyde's passing, it seems that there will be an imbalance within
ourselves."

"So, what are you going to do?" Mayl asked. "Is there anything we can do to help?"

"No one else but Lan has any use to us. If you want to help, stay out of the way,"
Madoi snapped in a sudden rage. In a clap of thunder, the four of them were gone.

----------

Lan felt that something was wrong. He let Kael, the wolf virus he and the girl were
riding, guide them, but he had no clue where they were going. Something did not
feel right. The morning sun blazed with passion, and the air was not so much hot
than it was humid. Which was what annoyed Lan; Electopia was not known for
humidity.

"Whoa, heel, Kael," Lan ordered. The Hoah-gou skidded to a stop. "What the hell...
happened?"

ACDC Town lay before him, torched to the ground. Not one building stood, save for
the gate and Lan's house. From his seat atop Kael, Lan could make out the piles of
charred corpses along the ground, infesting the air with a crisp stench. As they
neared closer to the ruins, his eyes started to sting.

"Dammit!" he cried, frustrated. He looked down to see if he had awakened the girl,
who was still resting peacefully against him. As he leapt off, the girl slumped softly
forward, clutching the soft yellow fur as though it were precious.

Lan clutched the dry earth that lay before the gate. The small, watered clumps of soil
dissolved at his touch. Just like everything else around him. He took out his halberd
and cut open a hole in the border, making a way in for himself. He nearly fainted
from nausea; the corpses were decomposing earlier due to the smoke damage.

He went through the town, unsure of his motives. He reached the now-crumbled
rebellion headquarters. His hands went limp. His feet betrayed him, buckling as he
slowly climbed each step. On the second to last step, he collapsed, both physically
and emotionally.

Why? Why am I never able to make it all the way, to see it through to the end? I'm
always late, late for everything. Mom, Dad, Hub, Megaman, and the list will only get
longer. I couldn't even protect my baby when that damned Navi went after her in the
hospital! It's exactly like Miyu said: my flaws have hurt me so badly, and it will only
get worse. Yai, Glyde, Roll... his first tear dropped, and Mayl. Oh, god, not Mayl.

His heart clenched, each beat sending a painful, thudding ache in his chest. Every
muscle, every fiber in his body was sore, tired by an unseen force, one that was felt
within. Inside, every thought was another stab into him. The pain was so
unbearable. His soul cried out in an unending wail, shrieking though the very reaches
of his psyche, into places within himself he never knew existed. Everything had been
so clear to him, his life, his future, his happiness. Now, everything seemed to taunt
him, just out of reach.

Lan lied there, face planted against the step just one from the end.

Look at him. Isn't it such pity that someone who is supposed to be strong and
powerful is in fact so weak? It's just sick!

"No!" Shin cried aloud. She woke up atop her furry steed, almost forgetting who she
was. In a whisper, she murmured, "You're wrong..."

The voice within her heart spoke differently. Somehow, inside, Shin knew everything
that she was thinking was wrong. Yet something kept tugging at her to believe it.
Emotions do not help you; they only distract you from your goals!

"Emotions are what make me human, not some little girl-animal that runs on the
streets begging for food!" she yelled at herself. Almost instantly, she realized that
she had been describing who she was. "...I don't want to be some mindless being..."

With that, Zergniethil began to shimmer in full force. A light swathed around Shin
sinuously. Conversely, a shadow crept out of her, which tried desperately to cling on
to her soul. Gradually, the light grew in intensity and the shadow was soon banished.

Another voice spoke to Shin while the light slowly faded. Syrpiektre cares for neither
the holy nor the unholy, other than the fact that the holy have ideals. Ideals and
emotion are what fuels the best soldiers, and you are one of those soldiers...

At the final whisper of light, Shin closed her eyes and fell unconscious once more,
atop her yellow steed.

--------

"Well, Gateman and I will be leaving," Meijin announced. "I've got to make sure
everyone at ACDC gets a proper burial. I suggest that you search the nearest town,
Kotobuki, for Lan. If the Elementals reach him first, then he'll probably end up being
dead."

"And what are we going to do when we find him? Forgive him?" Yai scoffed. "After
shooting up a hospital, chasing something that doesn't exist-"

"You don't know that!" Megaman burst out in fury.

"I do," Protoman said. The crimson knight hadn't spoken for the most part, but he
felt that perhaps it was time for him to finally speak. "Lan is right. He wasn't insane
because he wouldn't face his parents' death. That Navi was real, and it was after his
and Mayl's daughter."

"What? But...how?" Roll asked, dumbfounded.

"My injuries were caused by that blue-black Navi. I overheard some people talking
about the Navi and its purpose at the hospital, and I also heard that they found out
the baby's alive. That's why I rushed out to tell Mayl."

Mayl sat on a stump nearby, trying to grasp at the sudden news.

"Of course, whoever I overheard knew I was there and sent that Navi after me. I
never got a chance to say anything until now," Protoman continued.

"So we all misjudged Lan when he shot into the nursery. He was trying to stop the
Navi from getting in..." Yai admitted guiltily.

"I say you should head over to Marine Harbor. Ask around, and you might find some
information about him. It's only been four days, but maybe he walked around a bit
after he stormed out." Meijin shrugged. He and Gateman got up to leave, and
disappeared into the thick of the woods shortly after.

Megaman sighed. "So we're off to Kotobuki. Let's hope we find what we're after."

----------

Miyu did not like the feeling she had as she stepped closer to Eugene's office in the
NetBattler HQ, which was stationed off in Netopia, a city in the former US.
Something very powerful was in that room, and it resonated with the stench of
rotting spirits.

Something powerful is amiss, Miyu. This amount of spiritual energy has never been
registered before. I believe it would be best if we found the other Elementals. The
encroaching darkness seems too near to be of good fortune, Skullman warned.

Miyu shook her head no. "Before we can decide on our current action, let's check this
out."

Skullman still held an expression of circumspection, but he knew he would not be
able to change her mind. As they entered the office, they found Dex and Gutsman
already seated. Miyu gasped audibly when she saw what wrapped around Eugene's
neck.

"So it was Lervingthis!" she hissed.

The doors slammed behind her, locking Skullman in as well. Eugene rose and
commanded, "Restrain them."

Dex and Gutsman sprung out of their seats and wrapped their immense arms around
the respective captive. Miyu didn't bother to waste her strength trying to get free.
"What is it you want?"

Ignoring her, Eugene mused, "You know, for a representative of something as horrid
as the element of Depletion, you have an amazing amount of resolve and will. For
that reason, I know that you would go out of your way to try and stop me. But
before I do anything, I will show you the amount of power that I have!"

He moved out into the balcony that over looked the HQ courtyard, where he had
assembled every NetBattler in the building. Spreading his palms out, Eugene
somehow caused the moon crystal to rise. Each and every living thing below began
to glow brightly, as all the holiness in the Headquarters began to fade away.
Lervingthis consumed every bit of energy, absorbing it all as hungrily as a starving
tiger would with its kill.

Miyu nearly fainted from the surge of spiritual force. She felt every cry of anguish as
the souls were devoured. When the moon crystal was finished, Miyu finally began to
breathe again, in painful and ragged gasps.

"Pitiful."

Duo appeared from a surreal "rip" in reality. Miyu could barely see the waves of the
temporal difference, but she was too weak to see clearly.

Duo spat in disgust. "This is supposed to be an Elemental? If you are to protect this
dimension, then why are you so vulnerable to emotion? I do not see how you find
her in anyway useful, Eugene. She would serve better as another toy for that sadist
adoring the bruises he's giving her."

"And what of it?" Dex growled. "It isn't so much different as the ecstasy of watching
the blood flow from a cursed opponent, is it?"

"That is a completely different idea than the grotesque bits that spin what might be
left of your mind!" Duo retorted.

"Enough!" Eugene vociferated, his voice enraptured with fury. He turned back to the
hundreds of soldiers than stood at attention before him. "You all know the desires of
our deity! Scour every tribe, every town, every city for clues to the whereabouts of
the IceFire Sanctuary! If you find anyone who does not wish to cooperate, take
something that they hold dear! Force every living being into the cause!"

Miyu could not believe the roars of approval from all the people below. People? she
asked herself. She felt nothing but a barren, desolate casket whenever she probed
into the spirits of those below. It was as though the souls all left their bodies, which
was precisely what had happened.

Eugene laughed maniacally as the NetBattlers below joined forces and began to
teleport away. He turned back to Miyu after the final soldier had left. With a stern
scowl, he pondered aloud, "Now why didn't I make you a mindless drone like the
others? Ah, yes. I forgot that Elementals are minions of the deities themselves, and
thus are immune to the vacuum of influence. Well, I do have other ways of making
you one of us. Do you remember why you opened up that little antiquity shop in
DenTown twelve years earlier?"

Skullman's eyes widened. "Leave Iriol out of this!"

"But, alas, I cannot. Iriol is so close to finding a way to awaken those in comas, the
solution to the problem that keeps Ms. Kuroi's parents bedridden! It would be such a
shame for him to become another pawn, wouldn't it?" Eugene snickered. "If you do
not comply, then I will make Iriol one of them, and pull the plug from both your
mother and father. So do you comply, Miyu?"

Head hung low, Miyu nodded. Iriol, her fiancée, and she had met when they were
young, through the fact that his parents had known hers. They had agreed to take
her in when Miyu's parents suffered an automotive accident that rendered them in
comas. She spent her late teenage years with them and Iriol, eventually quitting
school and running an antique shop to raise money to find a way to wake up her
slipping parents. Iriol stuck with school, and because he loved Miyu so much, he
decided to become a doctor to try and make her wish come true.

Now he was on the verge of an existence worse than death, and Miyu hung on but a
single thread that could alter him forever. "What is it that you wish?" she inquired
hopelessly.

"I'm setting you, Skullman, Dex, Gutsman, and Duo on a job of utmost importance. I
want you all to find and destroy Zergniethil. You should start immediately, and it
shouldn't be too hard considering that you have Elementals by your side."

Once outside of the office, Miyu shrugged off Dex and placed a small salve on her
bruises to instantly heal them. She glared at Dex, and snapped out her scythes
faster than Dex could believe possible. She had one scythe to his throat and one
poised against his groin before he even began gawking. Leering, she hissed, "Keep
your hands off of me. Touch me one more time, and I swear, I'll make sure you'll be
embarrassed to ever drop your pants again."

As she put away her weapons, Duo laughed mockingly.

"I deem that was satisfactory, Lervingthis?" Eugene asked. The crystal gleamed in
approval. Eugene turned to the photo that sat on his desk, one that he, Lan and Mayl
had taken at Okuden Campgrounds twelve years back. "I will make you mine, Mayl.
With Lervingthis, I will be able to make you mine forever!"

Eugene sat back in his reclining executive's chair, pondering all the possible ways he
could lure her back to him.

----------

Lan sat back atop Kael, watching intently the slow rising and falling of the girl's soft
breathing. He ran a hand through her luminous red hair, finding himself smiling for
the first time in a long time. There was something about this young child that
seemed to stir up something that Lan had buried within himself long ago. He did not
know her name or anything about her, yet he felt an overpowering contentment as
he continued to gaze at her exuberant innocence.

He noticed that she was clutching Zergniethil tightly in her grasp, so he removed it
and placed it in one of the pouches of his travel pack. He seemed to arouse her, for
she moaned and sat up.

"Finally up?" he asked. "Judging by the sun, it's practically noon."

"I was real tired, I guess," the girl responded.

"Well, judging by the look of things, I don't think there's much for me to live for,"
Lan remarked gloomily. "There really isn't anything left for me to do but start all
over with my life..."

"Whatever your life is, will I be in it?"

"Yeah... I guess you will."

- Notes/Explanations -

OOOOOOkkayy. I guess I owe everyone the ultimate of explanations here. I have
decided to dissect my story into, quite possibly, a trilogy. I changed this part of the
story's title from just plain "Dual Realms" to "Dual Realms: Paradox". I guess you
could call this the prologue, then.

The reason this happened was because my original Chapter Four was a complete
bust. Right in the middle of writing it, I had RLIS (Real Life Interference Syndrome),
and the effects were so devastating that I completely lost sight of my goals. Now, I
re-wrote all of Chapter four and came up with this. AAALLLL those sub-plots I had
created were just bogging me down, and it was mostly my fault for doing so many!
But hey, I just had that author's craving... I just wanted to write every possible story
that popped in my head, all in one plotline. Of course, that's what RUINS authors,
rather than helps them.

Anyhow, here's the (in a loud, booming echo) INTERESTING NOTES section:

-I forgot to mention this last time, but the Hoah-gous are the renames of the
Spiky virus in the Battle Network series. Actually, Hoah and gou are Anglicized
versions of the Chinese words for "fire" and "dog".

-Anyone notice that Syrpiektre is like a jumbled version of Pyrestrike? You can
even check yourself; every letter is in there!

-Syrpiektre was a wolf-like entity, so is it any wonder that Zergniethil, a stone
that represents Syrpiektre, would pick a pet like the wolf virus Kael to be a pet?

-Madoi is the Japanese name for the ex-WWW agent "Madd". I didn't like Madd as
a name, and I don't like Madoi much either, but I prefer the latter apposed to the
former.

-Sal's makeover was done by me... if anyone wants to make fanart of her new
style it's up to you, but I sure as hell would be emphatic! If you want to flame me for
making her like so, that's up to you, too.

-All that mythological stuff was made up by me. Every last bit of it, from crumb
to cookie jar (how's that for a new analogy?). It was a painstaking process of picking
out fantasy names, whether if I should include apostrophes or not, and the like. I am
content with what I have, and you should watch out, 'cuz more about "Those
God/Beast/Monster Things With Long Annoying Names" will be coming at ya!

-Yeah, it might seem a bit cheesy, but if some of you forgot... in the ending to
Battle Network 2, Eugene decides to show up at the camp, and Mayl's still
complaining about the knife. So what does he do? He hands her a knife and when
she thanks him, he bubbles up and sayz, "Anything for you, Mayl." So my crappy
jealousy between Eugene and Lan holds.

-Iriol is my own made up character. So is the whole accident thing with Miyu's
parents. I needed to have something threaten her into being cooperative, and I
didn't want to say something like "If you don't, I'll kill your brother! Yes, I
kidnapped him and he's sitting under my citadel at the very moment!" I try to not
sound like Pegasus from Yu-gi-oh, but they tend to just crawl up on you...

I think that's all from there... flip, flip, flip..." A-ha! Here it is! smacks paper. Now,
onto my next topic: the next part of Dual Realms! Its title is pending, but I'm
thinking "Dual Realms: Supplication". I'm open to ideas though, so lemme know
what you think!

I'm not going to come out with this next one for maybe a couple of weeks. I'm
thinking of becoming a columnist so that might be fun and a place
to catch up w/ me. I also have to finally start my summer reading assignment, plus is doing the server jump. And I also have to plan out "Supplication"
too.

While I'm gone, why don't you all mosey on down here:

http/ my original story, TPK. Read it, and I'm sure you'll love, or I'll swallow every bit
of flaming that you've got!

I think that's all... Don't worry, you haven't seen the last of this plotline! Just some
drastic changes, so bear with me. Post reviews here if you like, or if you're a
member of the MMU Forums, post there. I would LOVE to see comments and stuff
through e-mail, and so send away! I would also LOVE to see fanart for this, and if
you do, I'll post it up on my site with utmost joy! If it's good (and I've got some
pretty high standards), I might even turn it into a piece of advertisement for my
story and your art!

Sigh I'll try not to keep my hopes up, cuz I know life isn't gonna revolve around
me. Well, I guess that's all for now...
