I own nothing. Be happy I don't, 'cause both MegaMan and Chobits
would suck if I did.

The next morning, it was Roll's turn to wake up first. She climbed out of her capsule and grabbed her hairbrush. She brushed the knots out of her hair, and then tied it into her usual ponytail. She went to wake her brothers, but stopped when she noticed Bass in a spare capsule.
"Great. He's still here." She poked the black robot, causing him to stir. "Hey, get up Bass. If you're going to be staying here, then you need to help out."
"Oh, shut up. Its too early in the morning to work." He rolled over in the capsule.
"You'd better get up, or there won't be any breakfast for you!" That woke Bass up.
"You wouldn't dare."
"Wanna bet?" Roll glared at him. He jumped out of the capsule and started to clean the lab at a record pace. Roll sighed, "Boys are motivated only by food, money, and sex. They're so pathetic." She shook her head and started breakfast.
Bass was halfway done mopping the lab floor when he noticed Dr. Light. The doctor was sprawled across a table, drooling in the "Persocoms for dummies" handbook. His pipe was lying on the floor, the fuel in it long used up.
"Yo Doc. You all right?"
"Ugh. I'll be up in a minute honey..." Dr. Light rolled off the table, landing hard on his pipe. "OW!" Bass held up a card with 2.5 written on it. "Shut up fish boy."
"I AM NOT A FISH!"

MegaMan slowly opened his eyes. From his capsule, he could see that Chii's bed was empty. He immediately started to panic and tried to get out of his capsule, but several blankets were restraining his movement. He studied the blankets for a second and noticed Chii's head resting against his shoulder.
"Oh." If he could have, MegaMan would have slapped his forehead. Chii sighed and opened her eyes. "Good morning Chii."
"Good... morning?"
"You say good morning to someone when you see them in the morning. When it's night, you say good evening."
"Good morning MegaMan." She smiled and snuggled closer to MegaMan.
"Hey Mega, it's time to get up!" ProtoMan walked over to the capsule. "Wow, she moves fast. I thought that kind of girl wasn't your type."
"HEY! That's not nice ProtoMan! Chii isn't like that, she was just cold!" MegaMan was blushing again.
"Fine, fine, whatever." ProtoMan walked into the kitchen.
"What did ProtoMan mean when he said I was fast?" Chii started to unwrap MegaMan from the sheets.
"Uh... I think he means that you fall in love with people quickly."
"Chii." Finally, Chii and MegaMan were free from the blankets.
"Well, we should get to breakfast." MegaMan started walking toward the kitchen, followed closely by Chii.
------
Later that morning, Dr. Light received a call from Minoru.
"I take it you've found something Minoru?"
"Possibly. Would you be willing to meet me at the McDonalds in front of the train station?"
"Sorry, but the Police department wants me to help them upgrade security. Could I send MegaMan instead?"
"The one who was getting attached to Chii? Sure. He'd do for now. It's probably best if he has more knowledge about Chii if he's getting attached to her."
"Personally, he can grow as close to Chii as he likes. They have about the same limitations, so I don't see the problem."
"The same limitations?"
"Yes. MegaMan is not a Persocom like Chii, but he is very similar. He is a prototype of a new kind of machine I'm trying to build."
"I see... I suppose your right then. Will two o'clock do?"
"Sure. He will be right on time. Have a nice day Minoru." The line cut off.
------
"All right. Dr. Light said the Mickey D's right outside the train station..."
MegaMan walked the streets of Tokyo, quickly making his way towards the meeting place. He was dressed in blue jeans and a leather jacket, and had a pair of sunglasses over his eyes. His messy brown hair was uncombed, as it always was. Below the leather jacket he had a blue T-shirt on, and he wore a silver necklace around his neck. He seemed human enough without his armor on.
"Well, here I am." MegaMan pushed open the restaurant's front door. He spotted Minoru immediately. Minoru, clad in his school uniform, was sitting in a corner booth. "Mr. Kokubunji?"
"Just call me Minoru. Have a seat, Mr...?"
"Clive."
"Mr. Clive. Dr. Light asked me to look around for information on Chii. I posted on a BBS about Chii to see who would respond. I received several replies like 'Hey, can I help you try to crack her code?' and 'I wish I could have a Persocom like that!' but nothing of any relevance. Then a new message was posted. Attached to it was an image file."
Minoru took a drink of his soda and pulled out a picture. The picture had a female Persocom in a semi-fetal position. She had down-turned ears like Chii, and several cords coming out of her back. "O1" was 'tattooed' across her arm. Across her leg, "HOBIT" is written, but her arm covered up the first letter of the word. The Persocom had long white hair as well.
"Looks like Chii, doesn't it?"
"Yeah..."
"I think I know what the letter on her leg is. And I have a sneaking suspicion that it may have to do with her memory loss if this IS Chii. The letter has to be a C."
"Chobit? The legendary Persocoms?" MegaMan's eyes went wide beneath his shades.
"You know more than Dr. Light did. Yes, Chii might be a Chobit."
"What's with the cables coming out of her back?"
"I don't know. Its definitely not USB..."
"Is it possible that this picture was altered with Photoshop or something? Someone may have seen Chii and taken a picture of her."
"It is a possibility, but I doubt it."
MegaMan was starting to hate the lack of information that surrounded Chii. "Did you try and contact the person who posted the picture? If they posted it, they had to have put a e-mail address up."
"I tried to E-mail them, but all my messages just bounced back."
"Must have been a bogus E-mail address. So this could be Chii, or it might not be."
"That's everything I've been able to find. You can take it with you. Since Chii doesn't have many abilities as a Persocom, I'm going to give you a laptop Persocom that my friend left with me. He eloped with his teacher and they ran off together."
"I see..." He really didn't see, but that didn't matter.
"This is Plum." Minoru set the Persocom on the table. Plum bowed and waved to MegaMan.
"Hello Clive!!"
"Hi Plum." MegaMan smiled at Plum, then turned to Minoru again. "So your letting me borrow her?"
"More like keep her. My friend said he wouldn't need it anymore, and he wanted to avoid contacting his parents. That's why he gave her to me, and now I'm giving her to you."
"Okay then. Let's go Plum!" He gently picked her up and set her on his shoulder.
"Yay! I have a new master!" Plum started dancing on MegaMan's shoulder until he started to move.
"See ya later Minoru." MegaMan waved goodbye as he left the restaurant, Plum hanging onto his shoulder.
------
As MegaMan walked back to the lab, he conversed with Plum.
"So Plum, what was your old operator like?"
"He was a really nice guy. He fell in love though, so he left me with Minoru. It's okay though, now I have you as a master Clive!" She smiled sweetly as 'Clive' walked on.
"I'd prefer it if you didn't call me your master. Just think of me as your friend!"
"Okay Clive!"
'This one's a little TOO happy...' MegaMan finally reached the apartment complex. Before he could enter however, an explosion erupted across town. "What the?"
"News!" Plum pulled a banner that read 'News' out of nowhere and began waving it around. "A strange robot is attacking the police station across town! It took a man named Dr. Light hostage and is demanding that MegaMan turn over the 'Chobit'. No one knows who made the robot, but they suspect that Dr. Wily made it."
"Dr. Wily?!? We got to save Dr. Light!" MegaMan ran toward the police station, Plum struggling to hang on to him.

Dr. Wily is back! What does he want with Chii? Are Bass and ProtoMan going to help MegaMan fight him, or will they slack off? Find out next chapter!
