Just so you know, I based the Bass in this chapter off of the manga version by Ryo Takamisaki.
Chapter IV: Royal Battle! The Beast King Vs. The Dark Lord!
"You understand I do not tolerate failure… don't you?"
"Yes, sir."
"You are the greatest mercenary on the net, Dynamo. I would not like to delete you… but I will if I must. These Beast-Navis are unaware of my true plan, and I intend to keep it that way."
"Yes sir."
"Your mission is to delete Bass."
"That guy? Heh. He'll be simple."
"The last thing I need is a battle with the Beast-Navi king. I want him out of my way!"
"Understood, Master Sigma. With my years of military experience, training, and record of deleted Navis, I am the strongest Navi alive… next to you of course. But… I would like half of my pay now."
"Very well. 500, 000, 000, 000 (five-hundred million) zennys." Sigma hands Dynamo half of his money.
"Excellent… I will not fail you, sir."
… … … … …
"Lan, you have another mission. One of our spy Navis overheard a deal between Sigma and Dynamo."
"THE Dynamo? He's the net's second most wanted criminal!"
"I know. He has been paid five hundred million zennys to delete Bass. And that's only half of his money."
"Wow… one billion zennys to delete Bass."
"You must protect Bass from Dynamo. But you'll need more help then just your friends Sean and Chaud. Lieutenant Laika, you may come in."
"Laika?"
… … … … …
In an old Net palace, Bass sat meditating. "My people need me…"
"You aren't helping anyone Bass!"
"Dynamo… I've heard of you… Well… Sigma has told you o delete me, hasn't he?" Dynamo pulls out his double-edged saber.
"Yes. Prepare to be deleted!" Megaman, Protoman, Draco, and Searchman soon find Bass. But what they were surprised to see was Dynamo being deleted.
"Dynamo Deleted."
"You have no need to protect me Megaman. I am capable of deleting Sigma myself."
"Bass? How did you…?" Megaman asks.
"Delete him? He may have been strong for a normal Navi… but he was just another thorn in my side that I had to take out. I expected him to be stronger, actually."
"So you like challenges, do you Bass? Awaiting the day that you will find someone to nearly delete you? Waiting for someone to quench your thirst, heal your pain of hunger! I am that one, Bass. I will put you out of your misery!" It was none other then Sigma. He looked exactly like his grim-reaper form from X4.
"Sigma. The Beast-Navis are my people! You sacrifice them for your twisted reasons! They are mine to do with what I please! Not you!" Bass stands up, his eyes redder then ever. His hands were glowing purple as he stood up, ready to delete Sigma.
"Bass!" Megaman shouts.
"Stay back, Megaman." Searchman says. "This is Bass's business. Not ours."
"…" Megaman was silent.
"Lets see what you got, Bass!" Sigma used his sickle to cut an S on Bass's cloak then shot him with his laser eyes. "They are my minions now Bass. You lost them to me. You left them. And the best part is… they're doing what I say. They've started a rebellion with human-types, given me half the Data I need for Dark Mantis, and, they don't even know what I am!"
"Dark… Mantis?" Megaman asks. Bass's hand glowed purple as he punched Sigma into a wall.
"GAH!"
"Earthbreaker!" Bass slams his fist into the ground and shatters the ground beneath Sigma. Sigma floats away from the pit and rips off his cloak. His body was like a Skeleton, black cracked bones and pieces of Data flying everywhere from his core (He looks like Sigma from X8, the true Sigma).
"Sigma Blade!" Sigma slashes his saber, hitting Bass. Bass quickly floats back before being hit by the large black flames that streaked across the ground. Bass ripped off his cloak and flew into the air before firing at Sigma from his busters. "Sigma Slash!" Sigma does a horizontal slash and cuts through the energy bullets, vaporizing them. "This is your end, Bass." Bass closes his eyes and admits defeat.
"You are the only one next to Megaman to match my power, Sigma. I have failed my people…"
"They're my people now, Bass." Bass smirks. Two black weeds reach from the ground and wrap around Sigma's neck.
"Whose people?" Sigma explodes into millions of pieces.
"Sigma Copy deleted."
"Copy? Well Sigma. I wait for the day we really do fight. The day the fate of the Beast-Navis is sealed."
END CHAPTER
Well, Bass battles Sigma and Bass deleted him. Another Copy that is. And Laika and Searchman will be an important part of this story in the next chapter. Till then, I have seven more stories to update! Yay me!
