Blackman vs. Spyman

Everyone was back from there little trips and it had looked like Myth went into hiding, biding their time. Zerix was on the Metro. He was heading to Electown to buy a video game and maybe have a bit of fun at the big arcade; there it had the biggest net battling ring in the country. Zerix got off the train and walked towards the exit. "This is going to be an exciting, huh Blackman?" Zerix said.

"Yes I hope we actually get a challenge at that rink, I am actually starting to miss Myth!" the black navi answered.

Zerix walked into Jomon's Electronics and browse through the games. Someone with a green camouflage colored PET was standing in line holding a game. Zerix quickly picked out a game and got in line behind the kid. "Hey kid, you got a net navi?" Zerix asked.

"Yeah, his name is Spyman, it was an old army proto-type now it is mine." The boy said calmly.

"So what's your name kid, I'm Zerix, Zerix Orbane." Zerix said, introducing himself.

"I am Sean, Sean Wellington." He answered quietly.

"Hey want to go to the arcade and have netbattle in the biggest net battling ring in the country?" asked Zerix; hopefully this guy would be a challenge.

"Sure!" said Sean as he paid for his game, "You lead."

Zerix quickly went to pay for his game, "Yeah." The two walked towards the arcade and up to a machine with two platforms and a jack in sensor. "Jack In Blackman!"

"Spyman Log On!"

Spyman Logging In

Blackman and Spyman appeared on separate sides of the ring. Spyman was a humanoid navi, which looked like it had been taken out of a Tom Clancy video game called Splinter Cell. He was holding a sniper rifle and there were many assorted throwing knives attached to his belt. "Come and get it Blackman!" taunted Spyman with a smirk.

Blackman wiped up his Dark Blaster and fired five shots at Spyman. "Take this, army boy! Dark Blaster!"

Spyman flipped behind a megabyte to hide from the shots and carefully aimed his SC-20k Silenced Automatic Rifle at Blackman and fired off three shots, "Check it out a, SC-20k Silenced Automatic!"

Blackman was hit in the leg, "Ooh! That smarts!"

"Uh let's try this. Recov100 Battle Chip In Download! Vulcan2 Battle Chip In Download!" Zerix said as he sent two chips to Blackman.

A soft blue aura surrounded Blackman as he was healed back to full health. "I got to be more careful! Now let's try this." Blackman fired the Vulcan2 at the Megabyte; with its piercing ability the bullets should hit Spyman.

The megabyte dematerialized and Spyman did an army roll behind a gigabyte, but two of the shots hit his leg. "Hah! Combat Knives!" Spyman quickly snatched up four of his knives and threw two at Blackman and ran up to him and stabbed.

"Ah!" Blackman was impaled with all four knives and clutched his wounds. "You're good but not good enough, Black Control!" A black mass emitted from Blackman's body and flew over Spyman, to be absorbed into the gigabyte. A black aura surrounded the gigabyte as it was lifted into the air and flew at Spyman.

"Whoa!" Spyman said as he looked around, but it was to late the gigabyte had already smacked him to the ground.

Blackman then fired from the Vulcan2 again and Spyman was force to log out.

"Hah! I knew I could win!" Blackman said triumphantly as he also logged out.

"Hey Sean, great net battle, you almost beat me and Blackman!" Zerix said to Sean.

"Yeah! You're the first to beat me!" Sean said as he looked in at Spyman to see his condition.

Suddenly Zerix got an e-mail from his father. It read:

Dear Son,

I hope you are having fun at Electown! But before you go home I want to visit Sci Lab, you should be able to get in with you're A-License. Meet a scientist name Licahtym Erutaerc. He wants to show you something, you can bring along a friend if you like but I need you to go.

Love, Dad

"Sounds like I'm going to Sci Lab!" Zerix said then he thought for a minute and added, "Hey Sean want to come?"

"Sure!" Sean answered "I've always wanted to see Sci Lab."

Zerix: I guess we're headed to Sci Lab.

Blackman: Licahtym Erutaerc, that sounds a bit suspicious.

Unison: Next time on Blackman's Story, Visiting Dr. Erutaerc

Zerix: Isn't Licahtym Erutaerc something spelled back …

Blackman: Shut it! Now you're giving away a chapter that we haven't even made yet!
