MegaMan Battle Network – Dreams come True
Chapter 4 – Calling all Defenders!
1 hour later - ?
"Is everything proceeding as planned?" asked Regal.
"As you predicted Lord Regal," replied the drone, "They're so busy looking for Dr. Hikari that they've only left minimal defences on the Network."
"And how is our esteemed guest?" asked Regal.
"The medics said that it will take at least another four hours to sleep off the gas."
"Then proceed with the next stage of the plan, and ensure she won't find out until it's too late."
"Yes Lord Regal!"
8 hours later – Hikari House
Lan, Mayl, Yai, Chaud and Dex were sat in Lan's living room where the uneaten party feast remained. Hakura had been taken to bed after they had returned and was fast asleep, Sarah had risked going online to check some leads, and had left specific orders that no one else was to go online unless it was an absolute emergency. Mayl and Yai lay asleep on the sofa and chair whilst Dex sat in a corner eating out of nervousness. Lan and Chaud were standing over a table shifting and examining various net maps and discussing plans.
"It can't be as bad as it sounds," commented Lan, "I mean, taking over the entire net isn't an easy job."
"But we made it easier by removing most of the officials from the net to look for your dad," replied Chaud, " Nebula were able to just walk in and take over."
"This is useless," replied Lan, "How can we just sit here and wait."
"We were given our orders," replied Chaud, "Like it or not we stay off the net until further orders."
"How come Sarah could break those orders then?" piped up Dex from the corner.
"She's more powerful than MegaMan or Protoman," replied Lan, "She has the best chance of survival."
"Barely," replied Sarah from the doorway. She stood out of breath holding her left arm limp.
"How bad is it?" asked Chaud.
"Worse than predicted," she replied," DarkNavis and Viruses everywhere. Even in Net City."
"Any good news?" asked Lan.
"Yeah," replied Sarah, "Wake up the girls you pair and drop that food Dex. I met FootMan online, Famous has issued a call. And we're all invited."
Halve an Hour Later – Electopia Docks
Chaud, Lan, Mayl, Yai, Dex and Sarah stood at the docks in thick coats waiting for a boat to take them to where Mr. Famous was holed up. Everyone but Sarah, who had only put the coat on to save argument, was shivering.
"Where's this boat then?" asked Mayl stamping her feet, "It's freezing out here."
"I don't see why me and Mayl have to come," commented Yai, "I'm not cut out for fighting."
"If Mr. Famous puts a call out you go," replied Chaud shivering, "Although he could hurry with a boat."
"He wouldn't have requested you if he didn't think you could help," commented Lan.
"It's here," announced Sarah watching the horizon. Moments later the boat pulled up and a wooden ramp lowered to the bay.
"Password," barked the man at the top of the ramp.
"You cannot appreciate the good unless you experience the bad," yelled Sarah in reply, "Six to board!"
"Right," replied the man, "Get on, Famous wants us to hurry, your the last lot and he won't start without you!"
They boarded the boat and pulled off to Oran Isle.
