Megaman Battle Network: The Foundation.
Chapter 2: Phase One Begins.
It was the next morning and the Hikari family was having breakfast. To make sure that Yuichiro and Lan would get the chemical agent Haruka poured a little water into their orange juice as well as her own. Now she drank ate and watched. She saw that they were eating faster then usual, Megaman was also eating fast too.
"That's odd, I'm still hungry." Yuichiro said.
"Well I guess we could have a little more breakfast." Lan said. They did so but they were still hungry.
"I'll just get something on the way to work."
"I don't want to be late for school. I'll see you when I get home Mom." As Lan and Yuichiro were walking out Haruka noticed that they were just a tiny bit fatter.
"Just as I thought their appetites will get larger as the day goes on. I'll keep a watch on them but so far Phase One is a success." She thought. She then started to snack on some potato chips.
It was lunch time at Lan's high school and he was starving. "I can't believe how hungry I am." Lan said.
"I know what you mean. I can't stop eating these hamburgers." Megaman said. Megaman never saw the virus that infected him because like a real virus it was microscopic in size.
It was then that Lan noticed that it was his turn in the lunch line. "I'm going to have a double portion today."
"You and everyone else today; myself included. Everybody seems to have brought their appetites." The lunch lady said.
Lan got his lunch and went a table and Mayl sat right across from him. She like, Lan, had gotten just a little bit fatter. "Hey Lan, did get your report done?" Mayl said.
"Yeah, but I had to on my Dad's side of the family. Mom said she's an orphan so she didn't know anything about her family." Lan said.
"I had no idea; I can't imagine what it's like for her. Not having a family for so long."
They continued to talk and eat until the bell rang. Lans pants were beginning to feel a little tight.
The rest of the school day went on with out much excitement Lan snacked between classes. When he got home he found that most of the living room covered with potato chip crumbs and chocolate wrappers. "Mom?"
"I'm in the kitchen." Haruka said. She was pulling out a pan full of chocolate chip cookies. Looking around the kitchen it was clear that this was the third batch today.
"Uh, Mom why did you make so many cookies?" Lan asked.
"I wanted make a snack for all of us, I even have a cyber batch made for Megaman."
"We do appreciate all the work you did but we've been snacking all day and I'm not sure if we should…" He then felt hungry again. "Well maybe a few."
Lan took his batch up to his room and did his homework. By the time he was finished he had eaten all of the cookies. "Well it's almost time for my date."
"Have a good time son and be home by ten." Yuichiro said. He had been getting fatter that day too.
Lan went to the café where he was supposed to meet with Mayl. "Hey Lan shall we go in?"
"Sure." he said and then kissed her on the cheek. They went in, sat down and jacked Megaman and Roll in.
"Hub!" Roll said. As she and Megaman got closer over the years she started to use the name that he had when he was human.
He kissed her and said. "I've been waiting for this date, our three month anniversary of going steady." Both he and Roll had gotten chubby over the course of the day.
Then they all started to talk and eat. They had a lot of burgers and fires and several milkshakes. It was about nine fifteen when they felt that it was time to go. That was when Mayl pointed something out. "Lan your belly is poking out from under your shirt." And it was true the bottom of his shirt went half way down his belly button.
"When did that happen?" Lan said. He kept trying to pull his shirt down to cover his belly when Mayl turned to leave Lan saw something. "Mayl I think we have a problem."
"What?"
"Your butt is bigger."
She looked to see that her skirt went half way down her butt. "What! How did this happen?" Then they both thought about what they did all day. "I've been eating like a pig!"
"But it should take weeks to get this fat. Something wrong, I better get home and talk to dad." He saw that Mayl was crying. "Don't worry in the mean time this just means I have more of you to love."
She smiled and said. "Thank you."
Back at Lan's house Yuichiro was on the phone. "Yes, I have noticed that everybody has been getting some unusual eating habits. I'll be there tomorrow." He then turned to Haruka. "I have to go to a meeting tomorrow about why everyone is eating so much. They need me because something causing Navis to overeat as well."
"Well I'm sure you'll find out what causing it." Haruka said. She then left for their bed room. "But fixing it is something else all together. I hate keeping secrets from him but I knew that he would be an obstacle to the plan. I just have to keep him from making an anti virus until Phase Three. This is for the better good."
