"She is to be my eyes and ears, however… unless you want this woman to die make the choice now"

"I…I ******"

"Forgive me Anny… I've failed to save you both"

"Did you hear? Nine people from Blaze Quest have been fired recently?" A man spoke to the vendor and a woman beside him.

"According to the report their performances were poor, one even tried to embezzle. Jeez! What kind of idiots do they take their boss for?" the man who ran the vendor asked gruffly as he took a sip of his water bottle, Anny who was walking by with Lan just mentally shrugged it off while Lan who heard this comment almost turned sharply to stare at the group talking at the vendor. That didn't sound good at all.

"Embezzlement?! That's horrible, no wonder their boss fired them. I hope they rot in jail for what they've done" the woman beside the man whispered.

"Well the culprit who did it will be serving time first, the rest no doubt will never be able to work anywhere technical again" the vendor said, Lan watched Anny as she looked at a junk part which was located in one of the vendor areas nearby. Despite the fact it was the weekends, Lan had chosen to tag along with Anny who wanted to go to a part of Den Tech City in order to obtain some parts for something useful. As a result it had become a special day they would do during the weekends. Not that they disliked it given that Anny had often been in the area since last month, as they explored the area the pair would make jokes about each part that they would see.

"So where will you be going after this?" Lan asked as she examined a tube like part, turning it around slowly before looking inside she soon turned to smile at him.

"Oh I'm seeing an uncle, I have to make sure the Navi is doing well since it's her first week working with him. She's not perfect but I'm sure she'll get better soon" Anny said with a wide smile.

"What's the Navi's name?" Megaman asked Ballara as she allowed him to enter the PET in order for him to see what she was looking at. Both watched with curious looks due to how the area would often change every week to their surprise.

"Starlight, she's an electric AI Navi that if Anny's plan works can harness energy to the point she could help one of Anny's uncle save money on power. She might just be able to harness solar energy if she gets stronger" Ballara commented surprising Megaman even more.

"Can a normal Navi do that?" Megaman asked as his brows went up, Ballara as she heard this smiled.

"Not an average Navi, but a Solo AI Navi for sure if it can master it's program and excel past it's boundaries however that is unlikely. Most are built with severe limitations not that it is a bad thing but some go rouge because of how they are made, at times Solo AIs are rare since they would be harder to control that's why if one is created it would be from outside influence and that can be bad" Ballara explained as Anny spoke to Lan about some parts involving a machine.

"How so?" Megaman asked before hearing Lan laugh about something Anny said, Ballara released a sad smile.

"Some become bad Navis or worse Darkloids which are often taken care of the moment they are seen to cause havoc. The media however is hardly aware of the activity thanks to some people" Ballara explained.

"People? How can people stop Darkloids?" Megaman asked showing how perplexed he was given how he had never heard of Darkloids, not that Ballara could fault him for that. Only she knew and that was thanks to certain people.

"It's not something one can speak about freely" Ballara looked at Anny briefly before checking the area, muting the PET she turned to look at Megaman who grew worried about what she would say next.

"They're called Warlords and they are a group of people who have teamed up with Navis who will fight against corruption, both human and Navi alike. They… can make people disappear if they wanted to and they do not play by the rules" Ballara warned with a grave tone in her voice, she bit her cheek as Megaman yelped in horror.

"Are you serious?! Won't the police try to get involved? Why are they doing this?" Megaman asked looking more worried about who could be nearby, how are they even safe? Ballara folded her arms and frowned.

"Police won't do anything, if anything they fear the Warlords knowing that they would rather have the group as semi friends than enemies. Think of the Warlords as your friendly neighborhood watch people only they will take matters into their own hands like a mafia group would do if you cross them" Ballara explained while keeping an eye on Anny, something that Megaman noticed quickly.

"Is Anny in danger or something? Why is Ballara looking at her like that?" Megaman pondered before speaking.

"So…" Megaman gulped slightly. "They-?"

"They don't like WWW and will get involved if something comes about, most of the times they cross into dark areas to make sure everything is in order. Before you ask yes they have a boss, one they confide to and will only react if the boss gives the okay. For now it seems safe so don't be too worried. Now I'm going to unmute the PET so let's talk about something else but do not ask about this again, you know Anny will hear you" Ballara warned with a sharp nod, Megaman nodded rapidly before hearing the outside once more.

"Does Anny have the skills to help improve the Navi?" Megaman asked now remembering their talk before the conversation went dark, looking at the pair from the screen he grew slightly on edge thanks to fact Warlords could be in the area. Ballara hearing his question felt her mood drop.

"Her father left some books to his sister, sadly people kept stealing his work so as a result paranoia grew at him to a point he would never leave work at his office at home" Ballara explained, Megaman shot her a stunned look, completely forgetting the Warlords.

"Why would someone do that?" Megaman asked not believing his ears, that had to be a joke. Who and why would someone steal? Didn't they care that this would cause problems for her father?

"Because Megaman, jealousy can do that. He was smart and was just lucky to be taught by two people who caught the eyes of the public. Only a few bits of his stolen items were kept safe, we were also lucky that the one responsible ten years ago was caught and forced to give up everything to the police. But the damage had already been done, her father was declared dead and only Anny could inherit what was left given that she was the only blood relation left" Ballara explained before sighing. "It's sad but Anny has tried to keep some of his work alive, even if it's not in noticeable things" she said before seeing a soft smile form on Megaman's face.

"She's a smart kid, it's good she has people who care about her. I would hate to imagine what would have happened if she was alone" Megaman said before pausing as Ballara placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Well… she has you and Lan the most, Maylu and Roll if I remember correctly" Ballara said with a chime in her voice, her smile grew as she beamed at him.

"Dex and Gutsman I'm sure, oh? What are they doing?" Megaman asked as he noticed Anny was picking up a red wire piece.

"She must be thinking about computer wires or something" Ballara replied softly before laughing as Anny teased Lan with it, seeing this Megaman howled with laughter as Lan jumped and screamed in terror before yelling at Anny for causing him such a fright. In the end Anny and Lan carried a few bags of machine pieces, parts that could have come from hard drives and some wires. Not wasting time Anny placed them in her room.

"Thanks Lan, that was fun… snake boy" Anny joked causing Lan to growl.

"That wasn't funny! It scared me" Lan cried as he remembered the thin metal parts touching the back of his neck.

"Oh come on, that did make you laugh in the end" Anny beamed at his pouty expression which then melted into a slightly peppy one.

"I guess… but you know I will get you back for that" Lan vowed earning him a wink from Anny.

"Sure! I wish you luck since you know I can hear you" Anny teased to his dismay, however seeing her finally loosening up pushed getting even out of his mind… for now.

"Are you going to send these to your uncle today?" Lan asked before seeing her shake her head.

"Nope, tomorrow because I want to tinker with these to see if I can make something with them. I doubt I can but it's worth a shot" Anny replied before sighing with content. Her aunt Haruka was going to have a field day with all the junk Anny was bringing in, this was going to take a lot of explaining to do.

"If you do make anything can I see it?" Lan asked, Anny shrugged in reply as she thought about it for a few minutes.

"I don't know if I will but I will let you know" Anny replied as she went to sit on her bed.

"Fair enough, see you later sis-Anny!" Lan quickly corrected surprising Anny who stared at him with owlish eyes.

"Sis?" Anny blinked rapidly while her eyes remained wide, this was surprising for her since he would often think it but never say it… not that he knew she could hear that part.

"I… um-see you!" Lan yelled before running out the room leaving her more confused than ever.

"Well… that was eventful" Ballara said "who knew he would say that out loud" she mused while Anny stared at the door now pouting slightly.

"He didn't have to run" Anny muttered as she got up and went to examine the parts, looking at the cables and machine parts she started to think of an idea and began to tinker with the parts.

"I know it's not ideal, but I'm sure he sees you as a sister. You have been staying here for a long time so it makes sense that he would see you as someone close" Ballara commented.

"What I want to know is why you muted the PET, Megaman was thinking about Warlords" Anny muttered as she eyed the PET with a frown, Ballara smiled weakly.

"We were speaking about Starlight and AI Navis, I muted it so no one would be able to hear our talk" Ballara assured Anny who hummed lowly in response.

"But he doesn't know about?" Anny felt a little worried about how that would go about.

"No Anny, I made sure of that" Ballara shook her head sharply. "He's worried about the 'rogues' but I'm sure he'll keep it quiet for now"

"I just hope I don't need to get involved, the last thing we need is the Undernet being spoiled by more trouble. It's a pain cleaning up the mess as it is" Anny grumbled before blinking in surprise at how the hard drive was actually forming into what would possible become a functional item thanks to the mother board she picked up last week.

"Don't worry, the chances of him getting involved is slim to none" Ballara continued to assure Anny before commenting about certain parts to help Anny complete the idea. "I think this can be untraceable if you plug it in with your monitor. You might have actually created something that will help you hack into special areas and as a result this if we use it now is untrackable" Ballara marveled as Anny plugged her monitor with the box. Pressing the power button she waited smiling immediately as the box released a low hum which meant it was now working. Her eyes lit up with glee once the opening screen revealed itself.

"I think you'll be giving your father a run for his money now" Ballara joked as Anny waved a hidden black diary that was beside her ankle, a sly smile formed on her face.

"Well he helped…" Anny smiled before it vanished, in the reflection of the monitor which went black for a minute after she pressed an icon. During that brief moment it showed Anny something she didn't want to see, frowning she covered her ears feeling disgust and dread. There was no way anyone was going to see this EVER.

"Anny?" Ballara called out sensing Anny's negative emotions.

"It's fine" Anny's voice shook as she turned the computer off. "I will get it off if it's the last think I'll ever do" Anny swallowed before eyeing the leftover items on the floor "I'll see uncle Maeda now" Anny said faintly before scooping them up back into the bags, once they were securely inside she took the handles and left for downstairs. To her relief Lan and his mother were not around which allowed her to leave without having to explain the sudden change of mood she was having, Anny soon grabbed her black trainers and tied up the laces as quickly as she could wanting her mind to wander less about what happened minutes ago. Thankfully time was on her side as she grabbed the bags and left silently preventing anyone from seeing her leave, mindful of the parts she walked briskly towards a district in which her uncle often worked at knowing that she would feel more at ease and happy knowing he would be welcoming no matter what. Even if her visits were often unannounced. That place was her playground and she relished in what he could do and showed her, in a way it was one of the only last places that contained parts of her father's presence even if it was because of her uncle who made the place comforting.

Opening the door to the abandoned looking building despite some of it being in good condition, Anny kept her shoes on knowing that it was more of a workshop than a home and kept her bags close.

"Whoever it is please wait a moment, I am working on important work right now" a man's stern but gentle voice called out causing her eyes to twinkle in delight knowing that he was inside. Her smile grew as she walked slowly towards her uncle a brown haired male who was dealing with some machine parts and cables in such a manner that it would be considered art.

"I'm home" Anny called out softly catching the man's attention, swerving his chair around he turned to look at Anny smiling at him before noticing the bags.

"Hey! If it isn't Little Anny, what brings you here? And what do you have there?" her uncle asked with a warm smile, resisting the urge to giggle she walked over towards him and showed the bags.

"Just some parts I found at the junk vendor today, they had a good batch today and using father's diary I made a new computer" Anny replied causing his eyes to widen in joy.

"Hey, now who's becoming smart like her father? That's really complex stuff, makes me wonder why you don't want to pursue it as a profession. Then again I prefer your artwork since it gives more ideas than that stuffy diary" Maeda joked causing them to laugh.

"I'm sure father would thank you for that comment" Anny teased causing the man to laugh even more, placing the components down Maeda stood up to help her with the bags.

"Wow, that's a lot of stuff. How much does it weigh?" Maeda asked in surprise as he struggled to get them to the table, he remained perplexed as to how she could manage to bring this over without getting hurt.

"A lot, but it wasn't that heavy. Then again you don't work out as much as you should" Anny commented earning her a sly smirk from the older man.

"Now now, don't get smart with me just because I prefer brains over brawn" he said in a knowing tone.

"I know, I just like seeing you react. I missed you" Anny admitted with a sad smile. Smiling back the man sighed knowing that she was upset to a degree given how her eyes were more dimmer than usual.

"How's the ear? Maeda asked causing the corners of her mouth to twitch downwards, his eyes softened knowing that it would be a main cause for her discomfort "That bad huh?" Maeda commented before kneeling down so he could be at eye level.

"We will get it off, I promise… even now I don't understand his logic for doing that but we will get through this just you wait and see. I'm still working on it as I am sure you are as well" Maeda said softly.

"But there's nothing in his diary, or if it was it's no longer there" Anny said stiffly "I hate this, I feel like a freak with it on and no matter how many times I pleaded with him to get it off he yelled at me" Anny said looking up with teary eyes, sighing Maeda pulled her into a tight hug.

"It'll be okay, we will sort this out. There are clues we just need to find them and one of them is with you so that is a start"

"But you said it's complex, we tried X-Raying it and that messed up the machines!" Anny whined, Maeda's mouth tightened from hearing her distressed tone and sighed once more.

"I know, it's not easy but we can solve this. Any luck with that Navi you told me about?" Maeda asked as they went to sit at one of the desks in the room. Anny looked down at her lap and gripped her shirt ends in frustration.

"He doesn't remember me" Anny said in a defeated tone that shocked him deeply.

"Now how did that happen?" he mused while placing a hand to his chin.

"I don't know!" Anny bit in frustration without meaning to "he's… he's so different! It's like he's become a different Navi altogether and he's so full of hate, he was never like that! He promised me he would come back, he promised…" Anny bit her bottom light tightly as she continued to look down, resentment filled her at how this could have happened. Did someone hurt him? If so who and why? It made no sense. Was it the program that went out of control? Did it get to the Navi somehow.

"We may never know what happened, but we can always do the best we can. In the meantime try not to aggravate him, it will do no one any good. Now" Maeda clapped his hands and rubbed them together with a smile "I'm working on a new project, care to be my assistant again?" Anny's eyes lit up and moved her head to smile at him.

"Always knows what to say" Anny mentally thanked him before they started to work on the project.

"Anny!" a teenage male's voice caught her attention, turning to the left she spotted to her joy a familiar greenish blue haired Navi in one of the screens. Wearing a bluish green body suit, the Navi had blue bracelets on his ankles and wrists, on the ends of his wrist bracelets long fin like sleeves were seen floating almost as if they were suspended in water due to how gentle like they moved. On his head was a pair of blue goggles and his boots were greenish blue. His emblem contained a sea like image while in the middle showed a green chip in the middle.

"Surf Hacker!" Anny almost cried out in glee as she beamed at one of her friends. Beside him were two happy Navis, one wearing a long red dress with a long transparent red scarf almost giving off the appearance of a dancer. Her fiery red hair moved and gave the illusion of it looking like a live fire; her eyes were ruby red and full of mirth. Her emblem contained an image of a fire spark that looked as if it would ignite at anytime giving her a semi intimidating look despite releasing a soft smile.

Beside Surf Hacker's right was the newest edition to the group who had a bright yellow jumpsuit. On tied to the back of her hair was a medium sized yellow shaped diamond, she had fin like wing clips on the side of her head above her ears, her arms and wrists contained yellow bracelets and her boots were yellow while her emblem contained the shape of a golden yellow diamond like star. Each part of clips or diamond sparkled thanks to the light that touched her, however Anny as she saw the clips and diamonds knew straight away that it was Starlight's way of absorbing and releasing energy despite being a work in progress. Anny was satisfied that Starlight was going to improve within a month.

"Starlight… Fleara, it's good to see you guys. How are you Starlight? Are there any problems?" Anny asked now moving towards the screen Surf Hacker and her friends were in order to assess Starlight. Starlight to her relief shook her head while beaming joyfully at her friend.

"No Anny, I am doing very well" Starlight assured Anny "I am going out and finding spots to absorb any parts of the sun or electricity like you instructed me, thankfully my Get Ability is helping me manage just fine" Starlight added to Anny's relief, part of Anny remained worried that the power would be too much but like Fleara, Surf Hacker and Ballara she was doing very well. At first when Starlight had been awakened it had been a real struggle to the Navi's power under control due to the shock and fear of being unable to control her powers, however they had managed to help Starlight to balance out and prevent herself from being discovered by the world. The last thing they wanted was the police or anyone worse to discover a Navi with a very dangerous ability, which no would result in her, Surf Hacker, Fleara and Ballara's deletion as well as Anny's arrest. That and the last thing they wanted was for the unwelcome attention from bad organizations like WWW or the Warlords having to clean up the mess of one of their own. Anny would no doubt be held under extreme fire for the damages and most likely potential blackouts.

"That's a relief" Anny smiled before she sensed something, catching on the look Surf Hacker immediately accessed the security cameras.

"What a pair of idiots!" Surf Hacker snapped seeing a group of bad people outside.

"They want the new program or worse they want you to make something" Anny said now rolling up her sleeves.

"Now now Anny, no resorting to violence" Maeda warned only to his dismay he was forced to watch Anny leave knowing that there was no way he could stop her attacking. "Why do I even bother? She's worse than her father…" Maeda muttered as Fleara giggled.

"Don't worry uncle Maeda she'll be fine, oh and please don't mind the extra heat. It's going to be a real furnace around here" Fleara hinted to his dismay.

"The security is now up and ready" Surf Hacker added with glee as he encrypted the files inside the computers without breaking a sweat.

"Good to know they won't be able to steal my data this time" Maeda muttered dryly before turning on the camera for outside, dread filled him at what would take place and hoped she would be safe. That and she wouldn't do anything rash.

"Why don't you hit the road?" Anny asked coldly as she folded her arms, her eyes narrowed as she took a look at the sixteen people outside. No doubt they were all thugs and the one in a white suit holding a cigar was the leader or sub leader.

"Dude! Do you really think that we'll listen to a little girl?" barked a member of the group.

"Yeah! Why don't you leave otherwise don't be too upset once we get our hands on you and the work that old man has in there" another gang member sneered as the boss chuckled darkly.

"Old man?" Anny asked sounding and looking unimpressed by their behaviour.

"We always have room for a scrawny little girl" the man in white said before glaring "get the man inside" he ordered in a sharp tone, seeing this Anny's eyes went slightly wide before unfolding her arms.

"HAH! Do you see that boss? She wants to be a hero!" one of the members jeered before they laughed at her.

"Time to put the training to the test" Anny narrowed her eyes at them before biting into the inside of her cheek.

"Well let's show her what happens to heroes" the boss gestured for them to attack, seeing one about to swing Anny vanished without warning stunning them into silence.

"What the?!"

"Where did she go?" the boss yelled before a gang member looked up quickly, his eyes went wide in horror as Anny was now seen in the air with her knees tucked into her chest.

"BOSS UP THERE!" sadly for the member he was knocked out cold by a kick to the face, standing up straight Anny turned to glare at the boss.

"Try to face me yourself you coward" Anny said sharply as she glared at the man who almost shook in fear, acutely aware of the sudden burst of energy that surged throughout her whole body. As confused as she was about the sudden increase of adrenaline she knew better than to question it.

"Why should I do that when my men can take you down?" the boss sneered, spying an attack Anny dodged to one side and grabbed a metal bar. Without wasting time she attacked the group without battering an eye lash nor did she sustain any injuries. As she attacked she remained focused on keeping the men away and yet her mind also went to how upset she had been.

"Since I can't hurt him, it won't matter if I can imagine beating up those two" Anny muttered before swinging the bar in one hand and hand it resting at her right side.

"Had enough yet?" Anny barked in anger causing some of the awakened members to shake in fear "next time you attack or go near this place so help me I won't permanently put one of you into a coma or worse paralyze you completely. This is Warlord Territory and that means you mess with this area, you mess with everyone within a ten mile radius and that for you guys will be the last mistake you'll ever make. Don't think some aren't prepared to silence some idiots. Consider this your final warning 'old man'" Anny snapped before slamming the poll on a lamp post causing it to dent to their fear, some swallowed before getting their boss and left without looking back.

Watching them run Anny almost smirked at how easy it was to scare off a pack of bullies, before she could take them for sure but this was something else. She was unsure of how to explain it but… she couldn't figure out how she gained this new found confidence to attack gang members.

"Anny Rune! You could have been killed! What were you thinking?!" Maeda snapped as he left the safety, he immediately pulled Anny into a hug before sighing as he felt her shake slightly in his arms. "Anny… please stop doing this, I will never forgive myself if anything bad happened to you" Maeda muttered softly as he stood still for a bit, Anny as she heard this smiled faintly before sighing.

"As if I wanted you to get hurt, I couldn't save dad, auntie or uncle Cossack but I can keep you safe. Even if it's just one person it's enough for me" Anny said softly causing a pained expression to form on his face.

"Then how can I protect you if you keep putting yourself in danger like that?" he asked, smiling thinly Anny nuzzled the man before looking up at him with a bright smile.

"We might need to keep an eye on each other I guess" Anny commented to his dismay, however regardless of that relief filled him knowing that she was willing to let him keep her safe.

Elsewhere a figure in a mountain like area flexed and unflexed their hands in confusion, the figure tried to process why the sudden burst of energy had leaked through their fingertips not too long ago. Strange that the urge to fight entered their mind when no one was in sight, had their senses acted out before anything could happen? Had their caught someone's attention to the point that it scared the potential attacker away? Frowning the figure jumped off the mountain area to see more dark lands in the distance.

"Why… did I feel as if I was in danger?" the figure mused as they stared levitating from where they stood.

"This sudden urge to fight, the anger… it appeared out of no where" the figure pondered as they spied the area for potential threats "I haven't felt this in a long time…" the figure looked up at the sky with vacant eyes, a sudden burst of light entered their vision before splashes of red appeared but only for a few seconds. To the figure's shock their body shook, not knowing why the sudden flashes caused them to dare they admit it- panic. They were safe for now until someone spotted them and picked a fight. Not that the opponents lasted for longer than five minutes. They weren't feared for nothing but… that sudden burst of emotions and power startled them, this hadn't been the first time a strange feeling entered their body. Last time it had been months ago and it had been before that annoying Navi bothered them with questions that struck a nerve.

"Who… was she?" the figure muttered before remembering the Navi gain a shiner from the other Navi who tried to attack them, surprisingly a short laugh left their lips at how the female Navi reacted. Not that she would see them watching from a distance.

"Strange Navi…" looking around the figure looked around, curious as to what the Navi was up to now… oddly enough.

"Okay pass me that wrench please" Anny called as she was laid under a large computer, Yai who was standing next to Lan, Maylu, Dex and Yai's father watched as Yai handed Anny the wrench carefully.

"Thank you, Lan how's the vitals?" Anny asked as she used the wrench to tie a nut.

"Vitals seem stable but are you sure that this is safe" Lan asked looking worried, this had to be the dumbest idea ever and no doubt his parents would kill him for allowing her to be near the broken down computer.

"Hey umm… shouldn't you allow a technician deal with this?" Dex asked before Anny slid out thanks to the board, her eyes narrowed at the green shirted male who gulped in fear.

"Dex, I can handle this now pass me those things over there, this computer isn't going to fix itself" Anny pointed to the bag of bolts and nuts, nodding her thanks she resumed her work while listening to Ballara's instructions.

"Anny don't screw it too tight I saw a spark come from the computer" Mr. Ayano called out as he helped her fix the computer.

"Got it!" Anny called out before yelping as a part of the computer near her face exploded.

"ANNY!" Lan screamed as he pulled the board back to see… nothing?!

"Hey erm Lan this isn't funny, where did she go?" Dex asked looking petrified.

"How should I know Dex? Anny? Where are you?" Lan called out as he knelt down to see where she was while holding a flash light.

Anny blinked in shock as she stared at a Navi the moment she appeared in what she could only guess was the Undernet.

"Um… hi?" Anny greeted weakly wearing a baggy blue oversized shirt, white undershirt and black lower knee high trousers. On her feet were a pair of black flats which now felt uncomfortable thanks to the fact she was staring at the Navi who 'ran' away from her. The Navi however looked at her from the shoes to her head, his face showed he was not impressed that she looked like a human.

"What are you wearing human clothes?" the Navi asked bluntly causing her to blink rapidly.

"… Huh?" Anny blinked before looking at her soot covered clothes. "Oh I was fixing a computer and ended up here?" Anny replied without thinking, this time the Navi blinked in surprise before seeing what appeared to be soot and dust on her face. Meanwhile her hair was a complete mess, it had looked as if she received an electric shock affecting her soot covered hair. She looked ridiculous to him and yet it almost made him laugh strangely enough.

"What are you a human?" the Navi asked bluntly as she tilted her head at him.

"Kind of?" Anny replied sounding like she was asking a question to his annoyance, to prove it his right brow twitched while his eyes narrowed at her.

"Why do you insist on bothering me?" he asked finally surprising her.

"Oh? Well… I heard about the bad things that took place ten years ago" Anny spoke before she could stop herself, she saw his eyes now show hate and hurt but she kept speaking.

"I thought the people who orchestrated your downfall were real idiots, to blame your creator and put in him prison was a douche move" Anny added tartly to his shock.

"What are you talking about?" the Navi asked coldly, this time she frowned at him.

"You didn't know he was accused? Before he could save you he was arrested leaving a girl behind but she was left in hospital trying to get them to leave you alone. You… don't remember her?" Anny spoke the last thing with an uncertain look. Images of red splashes entered the Navi's vision causing his body to shake; horrified he took a step back before composing himself quickly.

"I… I don't know what you're talking about, I don't remember any girl. my creator abandoned me and they all wanted me dead" Anny shook her head quickly to his anger "what do you know?! You're just a useless Navi"

"BASS SHUT UP!" Anny yelled stunning the Navi into silence, soon the sounds of panting filled the air as she glared at him, hurt continued to fill eyes which left him going still. "He… never betrayed you" Anny said sharply.

"I don't care if you don't remember what happened fully but do NOT blame him, not all humans are evil and you are no better if you continue this tirade of hate and destruction. If you want to rot here then fine, it's your choice" Anny said feeling tears wanting to break free however she repressed them knowing that it was no use doing that, she could never show weakness to someone who hated any signs of weakness. Just showing that would no doubt mean death and that was the last thing she wanted to happen.

"Just so you know, the girl you forgot never forgot you and is still waiting for you to come home… remember that" Anny said as she turned her back to him. Lifting his head so he could stare at her he was left paralyzed from shock only before he could speak she left.

"What… girl? There was no girl" the Navi muttered before feeling a sense of cold fill his body, strangely it was almost as any warmth he had left but he could not find where the source of this feeling came from.

"I'll… I'll come back, just wait for me I promise I'll find help!" a voice the Navi recognized as himself entered his ears, he quickly detected fear and agony in the voice leaving him more confused as to why he was hearing this. He had no attachments, he had shed any ties away the moment he escaped Sci Lab. He was free and yet some part of him was unsure, it was almost as if he had unwillingly left an important piece of himself behind and why it was continuing to niggle at him remained unanswered.

"I hate humans too… I hate everyone, they act all nice or you lose those close to you so quickly… my brothers died because of someone we use to trust and I was left alone again" Bass froze as he stared at what looked like a pool near his face, staring at it with a hard look the corner of his left mouth pursed in frustration.

"Hatred won't do you any good, I doubt we will be separated… if I can admit it. You mean something to me and it's strange that in such a short time I feel connected to you then any human in this area. Almost as if I can trust you with anything" A sense of warmth filled Bass as he heard his younger self's voice. It sounded innocent, naïve and so full of trust that it sickened Bass but for some reason self loathing filled him strangely enough.

"It's strange Bass but I feel that way with you, I feel as if you mean more to me than a brother…" Bass looked up with a pensive look "I feel safe when you are close, I can tell you anything and I know that you won't hurt me" the voice said, to Bass' dismay however he was unable if the voice was male of female. It sounded distorted and broken which left him annoyed by this, strangely just being near this Navi girl caused these strange images and voices to enter his mind.

"Just so you know, the girl you forgot never forgot you and is still waiting for you to come home… remember that" Anny's voice entered Bass' mind leaving him annoyed that she would bother him. Why did she have to enter his existence? Yet… he couldn't find it in himself to attack her.

"Just who are you?" he muttered lowly before eyeing the pool once more.
