I just felt like updating. Nothing to do. Finally! And I also think I kinda exaggerated the part where….well, read for yourself!

After a few days at the hospital, I regained my strength and could walk again. Soon, I got out of the hospital and was well.

I was walking to Scilab. I met Lan along the way.

"Hi Armel! Good again?"

"Yup, I am." We walked to Scilab together, and I found out that Lan was going there for testing. When we arrived there Chaud was already in crossfusion.

"Don't you take forever, Hikari." Chaud said in his 'you-are-such-a-loser' voice.

"Hi Chaud." I said.

"They need to test now," Dr.Hikari said.

"Ok." Chaud and Lan battled a navi, but with expert standards. That took quite a long time. They both managed to log the navi's out, but not delete them.

"Good-job though," Dr. Hikari praised. "Maybe you should try," he said to me.

"Me? But I don't even have…" I hesitated. "a navi."

"It's ok, We can set it to medium, and since we have new improvements, you can still hit it with you sword."

"Ok!" I said eagerly. I fought and it was easy, because soon, I deleted it.

"Let's try high-standard,." I deleted it still, but a little more time.

"Wow! You're good, Armel!" Lan said.

"Thanks!" I said as I blushed.

"You want to try expert?" Dr.Hikari said.

"Yup!" The fight began another time, and I also deleted the expert navi. They all gaped at me.

"What!" I said as I blushed, becoming redder and redder.

"You're so good!" Lan exclaimed.

"Well…if you like it, you can do it." Even Chaud was speechless for once, but after a while recovered.

"Yeah, you are good. Even Protoman and I couldn't beat it." There was a small "uh-huh". Then I told them the story of how I had become good at fighting.

"Martin and I used to battle each other for training. I had a little brother at the time. He also wanted to become a warrior, like me. He was too young, but I fashioned some battleclaws with blunt ends so he wouldn't get hurt.

"After, I set out by myself to be in the way for a warrior, as all of our family has done that. I left, but not before giving my brother his first real battleclaws and sword. He was happy, but didn't see me the next day. I had left.

"I ventured out until I got here, where we are. Me and Martin were happy. But until that day…and you know what happened." I ended my tale. It had been a good 15 minutes.

/Still skipping the part of how Martin went bad/ Chaud observed. /And who was her brother? Right Protoman/

/Yes./

/Odd too, how Martin hasn't attacked these days. Just from loss of data, that can be made up easily. Healing takes longer./

/Yes, it is odd, Master Chaud./ (hey look, I made a rhyme!) /Maybe they're planning an even stronger attack than last time.

/Maybe…/

"Hey Chaud, want to go over to Lan's home again?" I asked.

"It doesn't matter."

"And my mom making curry again, yeah!"

"Lan, you always love curry," Chaud replied.

"I think he's getting hyper again." I whispered into Chaud's ear.

"By CURRY!" He blurted out.

"What?" Lan asked.

"Oh, nothing!" Chaud and I said quickly in an innocent voice.

Dr. Hikari was kind enough to drive all of us to his home. All the way Lan was just yelping in our ears to know why Chaud blurted out,. I was right next to him.

"We're going to go deaf soon," Chaud muttered into my ear.

"Uhh-huhh…"I muttered back. "I'm worse, I'm next to him. Lucky."

"SEEE!" Lan yelped into our ears. "You guys always talk, but never tell me!"

"Ok, Lan!" I was thumping my ear to see if it was deaf or not (imagine that, kinda loud). "You say it, Chaud, no-take-backs!"

"WHAT? Oh, fine." And he told Lan why he had blurted out. At that time, we were nearly at Lan's home.

Meanwhile…In the net

"Wow, Lan can get loud at times eh?"

"It's even worse than that."

"Oh bother."

Hikari home

Lan's eyes were blazing intensively with hyper-ness now. He was jumping around the house, but his mom didn't mind.

"It's ok for me."

"It's OK?" Chaud and I exclaimed.

"Oh, it really is fine." Our jaws nearly fell onto the ground." He only gets hyper by curry."

"And I thought it was sugar," Chaud said to me.

"Me too. Odd how things are these day."

"This is getting sillier by the minute. I mean, a netsaver (no idea if I spelled it right) getting hyper by curry."

"I have no idea how they ever hired him."

"Me too." A sudden crash caused us to cringe.

"Ouch." I said. We both went over to where Lan was. It was no crash, Lan was banging the metal table with…uh…something. I nearly went into hysterics, but giggle.

"NOW this is really silly." Chaud said, not showing the slighting emotion, but a smile started creeping up his face. He started laughing too. Lan looked at him as if he was crazy. Then a smell of curry filled the house, and Lan suddenly dashed to the table. We also went over, our sides hurting from laughter. Lan was already heaping his plate with good-looking curry. We took some, and ate joyfully. After we were done, Dr. Hikari gave Chaud a blank chip.

/What's this/ I thought.

"Try it," Dr. Hikari said. Chaud then slotted the chip into his PET. Right in front of him, was Protoman, ready to attack, and Chaud was in crossfusion! "You see, now you and Protoman have 2 ways of attacking. Protoman has his own way. You yours."

"Thank you Dr. Hikari. Does Lan have one?"

"Yes he does," Dr. Hikari replied. I interrupted their conversation.

"So does every netsaver get one?"

"No, only the top ones get it. If you were a netsaver, you would get one too." I had to mask my hatred for Martin, but blushed at the same time.

"I think we should be getting back, Armel." Chaud said.

"Fine with me." We left, saying whatever we had to say. When we got back to the mansion, we were talking about Lan getting hyper by curry.

"Haha! I can't believe they ever hired him! Hehe!" I laughed out.

"Well, laugh it is kind of weird. Hyper by curry, oh boy, aren't I learning something every day!"

"Hahaha…Curry…Hyper…haha! Sorry!" Chaud smiled faintly.

"It's ok." I eventually calmed down, a little giddy from the laughter. I was younger than him anyway.

"Well, I guess I have to do something, my job stuff. It can be a real pain."

"I can tell. Why do you want to be a 'thingy' of this company 'whatever-it's-called'?"

"It's called president and Blaze corp."(I just made that up)

"Uh-huh. WHATever."

"Hey! My dad made me."

"Oh…Well, I need to do something in my room, bye!"

"Ok, I have to do my things too." We departed, me going to my room, Chaud to his whatever building he works at. As soon as I entered my room, I thought /Why did Martin not attack me/

Whew! That was long. Longest ever, maybe. Yup, longest ever. Well, wait for the next chapter!
