Boo. Did I scare you? I hope I didn't, cause I need you to review my
story. I own nothing, cause copyrights cost way too much.

Chii slid her hand against the window, causing a small ring of fog to form around her warm hand. The cold night air had caused snow to fall for the third time that week. She quietly watched as the snowflakes were blown about by the wind, only to settle amongst themselves in the already mounting snowdrifts. She cracked open the window slightly and the snow began to flow into the lab/apartment. Chii gasped as the cold snow melted before her eyes, then slowly rolled off her hand. It was a precious sight for MegaMan. He had been finishing War and Peace for the second time, but Chii's child-like amazement at the falling of snow had caused him to cast the book aside. Before he could move to join Chii near the window, Roll called out for her to close the window.
"You're letting the cold air in Chii! That's gonna drive up our energy bill, and we're strapped for cash as it is."
"Chii is sorry." She looked depressed again. MegaMan hated that look...
Roll sighed. "The least you could do is get a job and help pay the bills if you're going to be living here with us. I'm always busy cleaning and cooking, especially during the fall and winter, and MegaMan and Bass are out busting crime, and ProtoMan refuses to get a job. You are the only one that doesn't have a job besides ProtoMan!"
"Job? What's a job, Roll?"
"A job is a thing where you work for money, now if you'll excuse me I have to finish dinner before Bass eats it uncooked." She ran off when she spotted the black android trying to eat all of the rice.
"Chii..."
ProtoMan had overheard the conversation and grimaced. "Man, what's up with Roll? Sure, Chii's not an android, but from what I've seen she does have feelings! She does have a point though... Maybe Manager Ueda can give Chii a job. I'll have to ask him later." With that saved in his memory, ProtoMan returned to his loafing.

MagmaMan had failed. A certain mad scientist was not happy in the least. And to top it all off, he had just dropped a wrench on his foot.
"AAA!! CURSE IT ALL! Stupid tools..."
"I see you're having trouble again Dr. Wily." The voice that spoke was extremely deep. It would cause most to suspect that their killer was standing behind him or her, but Wily knew this voice very well.
"KnifeMan. I told you to stay out of my lab."
"Yes Dr. Wily, but the others wished to know who you were deploying and where."
"Deploy LightningMan in the weather station. He should spark up the situation there quite nicely..."
"Indeed. How is Project Z coming along?"
Wily was a bit perturbed that KnifeMan was prying into his research. "That's for me to know and you fool's to find out! All you need to know is that he will be strong enough to kill MegaMan, ProtoMan AND Bass at the same time without even braking a sweat!" Dr. Wily erupted in the traditional evil laughter for a few moments before stopping. "What are you looking at? GET OUT!"
------
'Just one more day till Thanksgiving!' Dr. Light thought joyfully. 'Just imagine it! The turkey, the mashed potatoes, the cranberry sauce...' The list continued on in his mind while he drooled on his computer. When a nut hit him in the back of the head, he snapped out of his daydream and closed the windows on his desktop before turning to greet his visitor. "Bass. To what do I owe this pleasure?"
"I was just wondering, are we going to celebrate that American 'thanksgiving' thingamabob?"
Dr. Light stood on his chair triumphantly while yelling, "YES WE ARE!!!" It took a second for the good doctor to realize just how loud he had spoken. "Oops."
Bass backed away from Dr. Light slowly. "Okay, that's all I needed to know. I'll be leaving now..." Bass dashed away, praying that the foam at Dr. Light's mouth wasn't rabies.
"Great, I've scared off someone that only MegaMan could take on with a straight face." Dr. Light laughed as he returned to his research.
Meanwhile, MegaMan was smelling and tasting Roll's latest batch of baked goods. Her cooking had been steadily improving in the area of sweets, but even this batch of cookies was a little scorched on the top. The chocolate chips weren't hard as rocks this time however, which made the blue bomber a happy android. Before he could grab a second cookie, his hand was swatted away.
"HANDS OFF!" Roll's words came down on MegaMan like a load of bricks, silencing any protest. He quickly shuffled away and waited for the opportune moment to retrieve another sugary delight. When Roll left to grab a spoon from the other side of the kitchen, the steal skills MegaMan had came into full effect. Quietly, he slid under the table. Roll returned to her pot of beef stew and tasted the brew quietly. She smiled and pronounced the dish perfected while MegaMan reached out and grabbed two cookies from the cooling rack. Roll turned around and grabbed a towel, but missed her brother scurrying off with his prizes.
"Hey bro! Catch!" MegaMan tossed one of the cookies to ProtoMan, who caught the cookie in his mouth.
"Danks Megwa." He said as the cookie was munched upon.
"Your welcome." He began to walk away, but ProtoMan stopped him while swallowing the cookie.
"Mega, Chii needs a job. I think I know just the place."
"Uh..." Mega was taken aback by ProtoMan's straight forwardness, but quickly recovered after a moment. "What's with you people and demanding the Chii get a job? Even if she did get a job, Wily's been kidnapping Persocoms almost daily! You should know since you watch the news all day!"
"So? We need the money. And as for the protection thing, I'm loafing around here all day so I could protect her while she's out." ProtoMan struck a pose, showing his best battle stance.
MegaMan, however, wasn't impressed. "You?"
"Yes me."
"I don't think so. You're too lazy, and Chii hasn't learned enough to get a job."
"She's been watching that Sesame Street stuff every day."
"That's for kids!" MegaMan was getting very agitated now.
"She IS a child! The work experience would be a good thing for her! Manager Ueda would help her learn to work, and she would make enough money to pay for some of our expenses."
"So we're going to put her to work then take her money, just so we can buy more junk food. I don't think so." MegaMan turned away, returning to the kitchen. "If she does go to work, then she gets to keep her money because she earned it. Am I clear?"
"Crystal." ProtoMan sighed. MegaMan had to be the most stubborn android ever build, especially when it came to his friends. "Does this mean she can get a job at Manager Ueda's place?"
"I'll have to meet this guy before I allow Chii to work there. Now come on, dinner's ready..."
------
"I've narrowed down the source of the transmissions to about a four mile radius."
"Good. We can wait here for the night."
Upon a roof top, two Persocoms stood together, looking around at the city.. They both had strange looking glasses over their eyes, and wore rather gothic clothing. The full moon gave them a rather scary appearance as the snow fell around them...
"Zima..."
"Yes Dita?"
"We're close. We are going to stop her for good this time."
"Yep."
------
Yup. This chapter was a massive time filler. I'm still working on how I'm going to get to the end of this story, but I do have the end planned out... It will be a good ending, not some half-baked idiot ending. However, the end is quite a ways off, so please review!
