Project Omega

Chapter 2: A Visit From An Old Enemy

Megaman and Jet.EXE were about to start their battle. They both stared at each other's soul forms to attempt to spot a weakness.

"Go!" The battle machine's speakers blasted.

"Burning Jet!" The netnavi flew at Megaman with fire blasting out of his body, knocking Megaman across the battlefield.

"Megaman, let's rethink our strategy, this is going to be tough." Lan said.

"Gotcha Lan." Megaman replied.

"When he comes at you with another burning jet, hit him with a rocket gutspunch." Lan instructed.

"Burning Jet!" The navi shouted again.

"Rocket Gutspunch!" Megaman's arm increased in size, and launched off, creating an explosive collision.

The Gutspunch had knocked down Jet, and he didn't look as if he was going to get up any time soon. He reverted to normal form.

"Elec Blade, battlechip in, download!" Lan shouted. Megaman's arm transformed into a blade, glowing yellow at the edge, with electricity flowing through it.

"Attack now!" Lan shouted.

"Recovery battlechip in download!" Anna inserted a chip into her PET.

Jet's health was restored, but it was too late. Megaman's blade had already hit him.

"Now to finish you off." Lan said. "Sword!"

The Elec Blade was replaced with a standard sword chip.

"Widesword!" "Longsword!" "Program Advance!"

Megaman's swords combined into a powerful program advance.

"GO!" Lan shouted.

Megaman swiped the sword at Jet, and he automatically logged out.

"That was a nice try." Lan told Anna.

"Heh, but this battle machine logged Jet out too early, I could've gone longer." Anna said.

Lan was about to respond to Anna's comment, but then, the fire alarm went off, and the door locked itself.

"What's going on?" Lan said.

"I don't think the door would lock if there was a fire, check the windows!" Anna shouted.

Lan ran to the large windows and tried to lift them, but they wouldn't move.

"The windows have automatic controls over there." The teacher said. "Try those, they've always worked."

Lan ran to the window controls and pulled the switch. Nothing happened.

Anna ran near Lan. "Is there a jack-in port?" She asked.

"Yeah, I think so." Lan replied.

"Megaman.EXE, Jack in! Execute!"

"Jet.EXE, Jack in! Execute!"

"Forget about me?" Dex said. "Gutsman.EXE, Jack in! Execute!"

The three navis entered the cyberworld of the automatic window.

"It's connected to the school's network, look there." Jet suggested.

They all ran to the portal that connected to the school's main network.

"Damn, it's not working!" Gutsman yelled.

"Viruses!" Megaman shouted, as a bunch of Mettaur3s advanced with their pickaxes

"Megabuster!" Megaman shot a group of blasts at the Blue Mettaurs.

The mettaurs ducked, and their reinforced helmets guarded them. They raised their pickaxes, and launched shockwaves at the navis.

"Barrier, Battlechip Download!" Anna shouted, and inserted a chip to guard the navis.

The barrier deflected the shockwaves.

"When they raise their pickaxes, that's their weak moment!" Lan said. "Use these chips once they do that!" "Cannon, slot in!"

Megaman's arm grew a cannon.

"Shoot now!"

Megaman fired the cannon, and hit the Mettaur in it's unprotected body, deleting it.

"Guts Machinegun!" Gutsman blasted the rest of the mettaurs with rapidfire shots.

The portal opened up, and the Navis were teleported to the school network.

Once they entered, they felt a violent shake.

Megaman took a look at where it was coming from. "Stoneman!" Megaman shouted.

"Long time no see megawimp!" Stoneman shouted. "I'll have much pleasure in deleting you!"

"You know you can't even defeat me alone, and I even have 2 strong allies here." Megaman taunted.

"You can't defeat me anymore, i've gained a lot of power over the past year." Stoneman said.

"We'll see about that!" Lan shouted. "BigBomb, battlechip in, download!"

"Cannons A, B, C Battlechip In Download!" Dex shouted. "Z-Cannon program advance!"

"Condor, battlechip in, download!" Anna added.

The bigbomb exploded on StoneMan, which chipped away a small bit of the large rock navi.

Gutsman's Z-Cannon fired cannons rapidly at the navi, but not much happened.

Jet's condor charged at stoneman, but it also didn't do much.

A faint black glow emitted from the large stone navi's body.

"Dark Chips..." Lan muttered. "Megaman, I think he's using a dark aura. I'm going to send you a lifesword to break it, then the others will attack.

"Roger." Megaman said.

"Sword, Widesword, Longsword!" "Program Advance, Lifesword!"

The three navis readied their weapons, Gutsman with a Rocket Gutspunch, and Jet with another condor chip.

Megaman jumped at Stoneman, and slashed the lifesword.

"Raaaagh!" Jet launched at Stoneman with the Condor, and it impacted Stoneman, sending him back a little.

Gutsman fired the rocket punch, and also did a good amount of damage, but still not enough to take him down.

"You can't defeat me." Stoneman taunted. "DARK AURA!" Another dark barrier surrounded Stoneman, which wouldn't be broken with anything short of a program advance.

"Activate Wind Soul!" Lan commanded.

Megaman's form changed to resemble Windman. The effects of the soul dissapated Stoneman's dark aura, and dragged him closer to make him easier to hit.

Stoneman raised his large arms and smashed the ground, knocking over the navis and cracking panels. Windsoul also provided floatshoes which made Megaman able to go over the panels normally, but if Gutsman and Jet made the wrong moves, they wouldn't be able to move.

Megaman used the fan that he acquired with the Windsoul, and slashed at Stoneman, suprisingly sending the heavy navi flying.

Jet launched his HiCannon, almost destroying him.

"P..." Stoneman tried to speak. "Proj..." The fall had damaged him severely. "Project Omega has only just begun." Stoneman finished as he was deleted.
