The Legend of the Gamer: Episode I
Introduction:
The music Course of Evil Megaman 2 by GS-Screamer is heard. The words 'The Legend of the Gamer' appear from the left on a background of a red see-through like tube that has streaks of light crossing through from the left to the right. The words move off screen to the right.
Chapter 3: Wrong Directions
"Um, err, hey Hyu!" Cory tried to explain, but Hyu held up a hand, signaling to not even try.
"You were going to find other people, but you ended up finding some people, and forgot to tell me, right?" Hyu smiled a knowing smile at Cory. Cory swallowed in a 'oops' kind of way.
"Um, actually, I kinda got knocked out and found myself here…" Cory said sheepishly.
Tails began to roll his eyes. "If you two are done, then can you tell me why you came here in the first place?"
"Well, that's a LONG story, but I'll tell you the stuff that Cory probably didn't tell you because he didn't know why either." Hyu said as the trio began to walk into some kind of HUGE room.
"Heh, I need to clean up from my last project…" Tails said half chuckling at the mess on the ground. There were tools and parts scattered all over the floor near some airplane that was colored midnight black.
"What is this?" Hyu asked the young fox.
"Hey! This looks exactly like that one plane from GTA: San Andreas! But, in a black color instead. Why black?" Cory exclaimed.
"Yeah, I modeled this plane off of the Learjet model in San Andreas. About my choice of color, I colored it that so that I can use it for recon missions at night to check for new bases by Eggman." Tails said with a seeming confidence.
"Well, now with Zain around this world, this Eggman character isn't even the main enemy around here anymore." Hyu said to Tails.
"Huh? Who's Zain?" Tails asked in confusion about the nemesis of CHVGW.
"I really don't know much, but no one really does anymore, except for our leader Xian. Speaking of which, I really am starting to wonder where they are now… Oh, they better be alright!" Hyu began to pace, nearly slipping on the tools on the ground.
"What's up with her?" Tails asked Cory.
"I'm really not too sure. You see, we had to leave in a hurry without anyone else because the city of something that I forgot its long name-"
"CHVGW." Hyu said still pacing.
"Yeah, that name, CHVGW, was under attack as soon as I got there pretty much." Cory explained to Tails. "By the way, what's up with all the cars?" Cory pointed behind Hyu, where there were Skylines, Supras, Corvettes, and even some Le Mans Prototype Class Group C race cars on another platform.
"Oh, um, I liked these so much that I decided to make some of my own. But, I only finished making the bodies and chassis of most of the cars, except for the Skylines. I finished those." Tails walked up a set of stairs and got into one of the Skyline remakes.
Cory decided to follow, leaving Hyu to still pace around nervously, worried about her superiors. "So, you made these all by yourself?"
"It took a bit of time, but yeah, I did it by myself." Tails hopped out of the driver's seat on the right side of the car (Skylines are only built that way in RW too, as they are JPN only cars). "Wanna test drive it?"
"No, we can't. Cory and I still have to find that code near us on some island." Hyu said as she walked up the metal staircase with a clang.
"Okay, but do you even know how you're gonna get there?" Tails asked Hyu.
"Well, as you can see on this map, we are right here, and the code's on this little island out in the middle of this strait of water." Hyu showed Tails a map on the DS's hard drive.
"Hey! That's Angel Island! Maybe I can fly you guys and some of my friends to there! I know someone there." Tails smiled slightly as he looked at the map. "One question though, why's this map not complete?"
"Apparently, we still need the code to unlock the next part of the search for the other codes to see other areas on this world." Hyu concluded.
"Well, that's just typical of a RPG…" Cory said to himself, but Tails and Hyu both heard him.
"Huh? What are you talking about?" Hyu asked while looking at the 18 year old weirdly.
"Oh, nevermind." Cory dismissed the question with the wave of his hand as he walked down the stairs. "I just wanna go now and find this code thingy that Hyu keeps talking about!" He smirked at the mess on the ground. "But, I guess you need to clean up before we leave, eh Tails?"
"Um, it'll only take me about an hour, so why don't I show you around so you know where you're going around my place?" Tails said also walking down the stairs. Hyu just followed as they all walked out into the main hallway of the building. They took a left and came to a door that led to another room.
"What's in this room?" Hyu asked as they walked in, but before she got an answer, Tails flipped on a switch, and the lights came on. There were some game consoles and some arcades inside the room. "Nevermind I even asked."
"See if you can beat my record on any of these games!" Tails challenged the two.
"Oh, a bet? I'll win that in just 3 rounds at most!" Cory boasted arrogantly.
"You really think you can beat my high scores? I'll wait a second and see you try!" Tails smirked and came over to the console Cory had just walked over to, which was an arcade styled version of GT4, inclusive of the steering wheel that rotated 900 degrees both ways, and had a clutch on it, and even the stick shifter.
"Heh, good thing I brought my custom CD soundtrack…" Cory snickered as he got out a CD player.

"Heh, your best lap time is gonna go DOWN!" Cory said arrogantly, and with a sneer. He loaded up his best course, Nurburgring Nordscleife, and also chose his best street car for the course, and got it perfectly set up in just 6 minutes (GT4 takes forever to load). Cory had chosen the RUF RGT with max upgrades, and no TCS or ASM.
"You aren't going to keep control of that thing on the Nurburgring, you do know, right?" Tails taunted. Cory just smiled a huge grin, and let the race start.
(6 minutes later)
"WHAT THE HELL!" Tails shouted as he saw Cory's time after lap 1 on the course. And his time was an almost unrealistic time of: 6 minutes and 23.617 seconds. "You- you- you are too good!"
"I know. I scare people back at home how good I get when I'm warmed up." Cory said with arrogance obvious, but he had a reason to be.
"When you get warmed up, huh?" Hyu said for the first time in over 10 minutes.
(13 minutes later)
Top 12 times on the course were as following:
Tails- Formula Gran Turismo- 6' 11.268"
Tails- Formula Gran Turismo- 6' 12.916"
Tails- Formula Gran Turismo- 6' 15.997"
Tails- Formula Gran Turismo- 6' 16.951"
Cory- RUF RGT- 6' 17.251"
Cory- RUF RGT- 6' 18.145"
Cory- RUF RGT- 6' 23.617"
Tails- Pagani Zonda C12S- 6' 32.679"
Tails- Pagani Zonda C12S- 6' 34.981"
Tails- Mazda RX-7- 6' 54.947"
Tails- Mazda RX-7- 6' 59.129"
Tails: Nissan Skyline GT-R V-Spec N1 '01- 7' 01.591"
"Heh, top times for stock car. I bet I'd easily make 5 minutes 21 seconds if I tried with that F1, the Formula Gran Turismo." Cory said as he changed cars.
"No! At least let my F1 times stay!" Tails cried as he tried to stop Cory.
"Fine. But, maybe I'll just play something else." Cory looked at the other games, and saw almost nothing since he had beaten every game in Tails's game library. "Or I could help get that mess cleaned up in there." Cory pointed back to the hanger.
(15 minutes later of cleaning up)
"There! All done!" Tails said as he put up the last piece of equipment up in its right place, the tools drawer.
"Finally, you guys take a long time cleaning up stuff…" Hyu said.
"Hey! There was stuff under the cars and airplanes too!" Cory complained. "But, now that we are done, we can get moving for that damn code now!" Suddenly, an alarm went off.
"Security breach protocols initialed! All personnel are to evacuate sectors 1 through 3 immediately! I repeat! Evacuate sectors 1-3!" A computerized voice echoed through the hanger speakers, along with the hallway speaker intercoms.
"What the hell?" Cory wondered aloud.
"Someone's in the building without using my passwords!" Tails said as he began to lock down the facility.
