Chapter II Part 1: The Fight

"I don't care what you freaking think of me!!"

"You know, I'm really surprised that Shine didn't delete you from the start!!"

"I'm surprised that anyone can stand being around you at all!! You're such an incompetent JERK!!"

"I'd rather be a jerk than a rabid bitch!!"

"Get down here and say that in my face you coward!!!"

Honestly, do I have to tell you who those were? For those who didn't realize, those were Proto and Muramasa. Proto had had the guts to piss off Muramasa and had already received a few dents in his armor, before he'd found a rather secure spot someplace above Muramasa. At least Muramasa hadn't tried to get up to him yet.

"Hey! Calm down already!" Mega said, roughly placing a hand on Muramasa's shoulder. "No offense, but you should really learn to calm down."

Muramasa didn't answer, before shrugging off Mega's hand and turning away with a huff. Proto gave a small smirk, before...

"And as for you Proto!!" Mega shouted to the red armored Navi. "Stop provoking people!! It's not just Muramasa's fault for blowing up on you!!"

Proto didn't answer, before he scoffed and jumped back down. Muramasa glared at him from the corner of her eyes, then cocked her head up with a huff, closing her eyes defiantly.

"Bakayoro," she said cockily, before walking off, leaving Proto and Mega behind, both confused.

Roll blinked and said: "She was pretty angry."

GutsMan simply scratched his chin in confusion.

"Bakayoros! All of them!!" Muramasa muttered, finally coming to a halt.

She stood beside a large rock of some kind, growling and clenching her fists in anger. With a roar of fury, she spun around. With a loud rumbling sound, the rock beside her shattered on impact with her tail. It crumbled easily, and Muramasa's tail whooshed about violently. She looked up, took a deep breath, and screamed.

"KUUUUUSSSSOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!" she hollered. "ONE OF THESE DAYS!! I SWEAR I'LL PERMANENTLY DELETE THAT MOTHERFUCKING ASSHOLE!!!!"

Once she stopped, she took a few deep breaths, fists twitching violently, wanting to desperately hit something. Finally though, the tight grip relaxed, and she uncurled her fingers, cyberblood pouring from the cut veins in her hands, caused by her extended nails. Muramasa inhaled deeply through her nose, and exhaled through her mouth, closing her eyes. She opened them and held up her hands. The cyberblood was a dark purplish hue, and looked rather sticky.

Nevertheless, it soothed Muramasa's nerves. She placed her hands on her knees, and sat down, crosslegged. She had been angry long enough. She desperately needed to calm down.

So, Muramasa focused on nothing but her breathing, closing her eyes calmly, and pressing her bloodied palms together, mixing the blood.

"Yup, that was a bad idea, Proto," Shine said with a nod at Proto. "Muramasa's easy to anger. And she can get angry enough to get violent...... but I think you already knew that."

Proto scoffed.

Their Operators had come to check on them a few moments back, and had heard what had happened from the five remaining Navis. Shine took it relatively well though. The others were either concerned about Muramasa, or mad at Proto for making her leave.

"Give it time," Shine said. "She just needs to calm down. She'll be back before you know it."

Lan looked at her and said: "You're awfully calm."

Shine smiled and said: "Well, like people always say, Muramasa and I are opposite personalities. She's easily steamed, while for me, it takes a lot to get me riled up. She likes to fight and... well... I'm sort of a pacifist."

Dex looked at her oddly.

"Excuse me?" he asked.

Shine blushed a little.

"Uh... Muramasa usually does the fighting if we need to. But I think she's a little addicted."

"No shit!!" a sudden voice called out from the arena, and all Navis whirled around.

Muramasa calmly walked over, looking a whole lot better than before, seeing as she was no longer glaring daggers. Her walk was composed, like she would not accept anything else. With long strides, she stalked over, and finally came to a halt, hands fisted, and eyes cold and emotionless. Like that was new, though.

"I see you calmed down a little," Shine said, then seemed to think a little. "Genki des ka?"

"Ch. Genki desu," Muramasa answered fluently.

The other Navis blinked, not at all knowing what they just said. however, they didn't seem to want to explain, so they let it drop.

"Hey Muramasa!" Lan suddenly said, and the gray-haired female Navi looked up at him. "You think you stand a chance against MegaMan?"

Muramasa blinked and looked at the blueberry.

"I dunno," she said. "Can I, Shine?"

"Well... you could try," Shine said.

Pretty soon, the two new combatants were standing on the opposite sides of an empty arena, both ready to rock.

"This is probably going to be a long fight!" Lan said, smirking to Shine.

Shine nodded and said: "Yeah. I suspected as much."

Mayl looked from one to another, and raised her hand.

"On your marks!" she said, and the two NetBattlers grabbed their PET's.

Lan's PET was light blue, while Shine's PET was dark gray with pitch black at some places.

"Get set! GO!!!"

"Plug in!! MegaMan.EXE!! Transmission!!"

"Plug in!! Muramasa.EXE!! Transmission!!"

The two Navis found themselves facing each other, both as calm as could be. Muramasa took on a battle position pretty quick, ready to fight whenever Mega was ready. Mega also got into a battle pose, prepared for anything.

Finally, the words "BATTLE START" flew across the ground, and Mega opened fire with his MegaBuster. Muramasa saw this and jumped out of the line of fire, before starting to fire at him too with her right Buster. Mega jumped up to avoid, charged his Buster, and fired at Muramasa. She growled and rolled aside to avoid the blast.

"Long Sword!! Slot in!!" Lan said, sliding in a chip.

Mega's hand instantly shifted into a sword, and when he landed on the ground, he ran at the other Navi, moving from one row to another to try and confuse her. Muramasa's eyes followed the Navi's movements, just before Mega swung the blade at her.

Before the blade even got close, Muramasa jumped over the blow, before kicking Mega in his face with both feet and sending him away.

"Shotgun!! Slot in!!" Shine said, inserting the destined chip.

Muramasa's hand shifted into a Buster, and she quickly took aim. Mega shook his head, just before Muramasa fired. The single burst of plasma shot off, before it separated into smaller pellets, nearly hitting the rather agile Navi. Muramasa frowned.

"Speedy blueberry," she mumbled. "Hmph. Well, two can play at that game!"

"High Cannon!! Slot in!!"

Mega's arm completely shifted into a large cannon, which he aimed at Muramasa.

"Speed+60!! Slot in!!"

The blue Navi fired, and the large purple blast was hurled at Muramasa. She simply smirked --- and vanished right before the blast could hit her!!

"Huh!?" Mega exclaimed in shock.

"Too slow!!" a voice behind him said, and just as he whirled around, he received a punch to his jaw, sending him to the ground.

"MegaMan!!" Lan exclaimed in horror.

Shine pulled out another chip.

"This should be enough to finish the fight, don't you think?" she asked.

Lan looked confused.

"Paladin Sword!! Slot in!!"

Muramasa held up her arm, watching as it glowed a pure white, shifting into a huge blue blade, surrounded by electric sparks. Mega looked up in shock as the other Navi smirked evilly, before running at him.

"Fighter Sword!! Slot in!!" Lan said hurriedly.

Muramasa's downward slash was stopped by Mega's sword, who growled at the other Navi. Muramasa returned the favor with equal ferocity, before the duo had to jump away to avoid the electric discharge caused by the two blades clashing against each other.

"Damn it!" Muramasa cursed quietly.

Mega growled angrily.

"Alright! I've had enough!!" Lan exclaimed. "Mega!? Ready?!"

"As ready as I'll ever be," Mega said calmly.

Muramasa got into a battle pose. She had a feeling this was going to be bad.

Lan pulled out three chips instead of one, and Shine gulped unnoticeable. She knew what was going to happen now.

"PROGRAM ADVANCE!!!" Lan and Mega screamed at the same time, their bodies fully synchronized. "EXECUTE!!!"

"Fire Sword!! Slot in!!"

Mega's right hand converted into a large flaming blade.

"Aqua Sword!! Slot in!!"

Then his left hand changed into a pure blue sword, seemingly made out of water.

Muramasa scoffed.

'He's out of hands.'

"Elec Sword!! Slot in!!"

'LifeSword2, PA #20 from MMBN2, 500 HP damage,' she thought, then smirked. 'This is going to be fun.'

Mega was surrounded in a pure yellow aura, and pretty soon, he was holding a furious blue blade in his hands, sparking with water, electricity and fire. With a loud yell, Mega ran at the female-Navi. Muramasa frowned and got ready for the hit sure to come.

"She won't survive an attack like that!!" Dex exclaimed in shock.

Everyone was staring at the two Navis as MegaMan ran at Muramasa with the large blade in his hands. And Muramasa did nothing but stare as Mega continued running at her. Even Lan was starting to have his doubts, but there was no turning back now.

Shine watched in horror as Mega lashed at Muramasa with all his might.

Right before the blade was supposed to hit, Muramasa ducked, grabbed Mega by his neck, planted her foot in his stomach, and catapulted him right over her. Mega gave a yelp as he fell on the ground, the sword vanishing almost immediately. Muramasa got up with a smirk.

"What a way to waste a PA," she mumbled loud enough for everyone to hear.

Mega shot up, angered out of his wits.

"How the hell did you do that?!" he demanded.

Muramasa chuckled, then said: "It pays off to know every PA there is from the back of your head, seeing as it can help you in battles against your enemies. But honestly, was that the best you got? If so, I suggest you give up right now."

"I'd believe her if I were you, Lan," Shine said, looking at Lan with a worried look. "Once Muramasa starts fighting for real, there's no stopping her."

Lan didn't respond for awhile. He just watched the Navi who had managed to avert a PA, which no one had succeeded in so far. He had already seen the damage Muramasa could do when she was pissed off, but how would she be when she was thinking clearly? Too tough for him to beat right now, easy answer there.

"MegaMan! Time to show her what you can really do!!" Lan ordered.

Mega smirked, and said: "We're nowhere NEAR finished!!"

Muramasa frowned. She had a pretty good idea where this was going, but strangely enough, she was not afraid.

"Then hurry up already!! I don't have all day you know!!" she said, placing her hands on her hips, showing she was getting irritated.

Mega growled, and Muramasa suddenly noticed that his eyes were spacing out, or rather, glazing over with unspoken anger. Green electricity began to spark around him, and a large green barrier came up around him, shielding him almost completely. He glowed a pure white, covering him in a veil of light that nearly blinded her.

With a startled yelp, she raised her arms and closed her eyes to protect her eyes. After a while, she peeked through.

"N-nani?!" she uttered.

A pair of furious emerald fires burned at her, trapped behind the glass that were the Navi's eyes. Shimmering emerald green armor adorned the well-built body, and his face was contorted into a dark, mysterious frown. The armor shimmered like gold in the sun, only in green.

Silence reigned for a long while as Muramasa seized up her opponent.

'Saito-MegaMan, Charge, Defense and Attack double the maximum, Speed reduced to minimum, HP quadrupled......' she thought, before her thoughts stopped. '.....................I... am... so... in... really... big... trouble... now...'

Muramasa blocked a kick to her head, but the blow proved to be too much as it sent her soaring through the air, before she crashed into a wall, denting it beyond compare. For awhile, she didn't move. Her face was contorted into a frown, and anger was starting to spark behind her eyes. Even so, she remained still, contemplating.

'I wasn't kidding... not at all...' she thought staring down at her dented armor and the countless amount of scratches and bruises starting to form.

Her gaze slowly went from her wounds to the calm and composed figure of Saito, whose eyes were hidden in shadows as he stalked over, slow and easy.

'I can outrun him with my speed... but his defense is too high to get any hits in... hmmm...'

Suddenly, her rational thinking stopped dead, and her eyes narrowed to mere slits. Her vision turned blazing red, and she couldn't think anything of it.

Saito stopped in confusion as he saw her eyes burn up in anger, before she screamed and shot at him. He easily dodged the flurry of punches she flung at him, before starting to counter, blocking her punches with his own, causing a small electric discharge with every hit. With a yell of fury, she lunged out at the same time as he did.

Their fists connected with each other's jaws instead of their fists, like they had originally intended. The amount of strength behind the blows was enough to stun both Navis for a small moment, before he recovered and kneed her in her stomach, hard. She gave a groan of pain, before her fist zoomed up and she gave him an uppercut to his jaw, sending him back a few feet.

Saito cursed and rubbed his chin. For some reason, she was getting stronger, he could feel it in her attacks. But what had caused this sudden change? He had no clue, but to be honest...

He smirked.

'This'll be fun.'

"Holy moly! Look at those two!!" Dex exclaimed as he watched the two Navis battle.

"What on earth are they doing!? How can they be so strong!?" Mayl asked, unsure of what was going on.

"Golly, how long will this take?" Yai wondered.

The only ones who were silent, were Lan, Shine, and Chaud. Muramasa and Saito kept on fighting, beating the crap out of each other. But no one seemed to be winning.

'I'm starting to think this wasn't such a good idea,' Lan thought in despair.

Saito finally had enough and placed his open palm against her stomach, which glowed brightly, before a bright pelt of plasma sent the female-Navi away from him. He locked-on on the place where she landed, and started firing plasma pellets that kept increasing in size from his bare hand, before stopping to charge up.

Muramasa shakily got up to her feet, her body shuddering violently as cyberblood poured from wounds and came rushing from her mouth. She kept choking on it, but still no rational thought entered her brain. Her head snapped up when she heard something that sounded like a horde of banshees screaming, but knew what it was without looking around.

When the blast was released, she never had the chance to turn around.

"MURAMASA!!!" Shine shouted in horror as a large explosion followed.

Everyone gasped in horror as they watched the smoke billow up, not believing what had just happened. Their ears were still ringing from the explosion, but their faces were still pale and wearing shocked expressions.

"Did... did he... delete her??" Roll asked, almost afraid to know.

"........."

Shine looked like she was about to cry, but she desperately tried to hide it. Silence hung in the air, and no one dared to move, or utter a sound. It just didn't seem right now, nor was there anything else that was. There was nothing that would possibly be able to heal the young girl's heart. Sure, Muramasa was a bitch most of the times, but that didn't mean she was completely heartless.

Shine knew that somewhere below that tough façade, was the sister she had lost years ago. But that part refused to resurface and face the harshness of the world. But even so, she still loved her sister.

"Onnechan......" Shine whimpered inaudible, just before her eyes widened in shock.

"The hell?!!?" Chaud exclaimed all of the sudden.

Everyone looked at the arena again, and gasped in shock and confusion.

Saito blinked, arm still raised, but his face confused. The smoke was becoming thinner, and he easily saw the dark silhouette, standing defiantly against the smoke, as it slowly dissipated. Burning magenta flames, locked in eyes of glass, holding them inside to keep them from going insane. Face contorted in a furious frown, cyberblood streaming down one side, and half her armor torn from her body, as well as bleeding like there was no tomorrow. Dark gray hair, hanging over the shoulder of her wounded side, drenched in thick cyberblood, seemed to billow lightly in a nonexistent wind. One arm was raised, palm spread out, before it was lowered.

"Now you've done it," she hissed, her voice sounding more like the chilling northern winds. "NOW YOU'VE REALLY DONE IT!!!"

Her hands fisted, shifting into a pair of Busters, which charged up with a furious whine as energy started to gather at the barrels. Her teeth were exposed as she growled, before she brought both her arms forward, and made the plasma merge.

Muramasa screamed, and shot a large bolt of plasma at Saito, who was still too shocked to respond, before it hit him head on. The blast sent both Navis crashing in the destined walls behind them. Saito reverted back to MegaMan as he lost consciousness, and Muramasa coughed up blood once more, before promptly passing out.

"Shine, remind me not to do that again, okay?" Lan said as Mega and Muramasa were being healed.

"Deal," she said, shaking his hand on it.

Lan's PET suddenly started bleeping, and he quickly picked it up, switching it on.

"Mega? Mega! You alright?!" he asked frantically after entering the password for his PET.

Mega shook his head a little, looking a bit groggy, but then he said: "I think so. But what happened exactly? I can't really remember what happened after Muramasa went crazy on me."

Shine and Lan looked at each other, then shook their heads.

"Don't bother, Mega," Shine said. "It's best you forget anyway."

"Oh... okay."

"I...itai!!" a familiar voice suddenly said, and Shine hurriedly grabbed her own PET.

"Muramasa?!" she asked worriedly. "Are you okay?"

"Hai, hai, genki desu," Muramasa mumbled, rubbing her eyes sleepily, before giving a yawn. "The hell?? I'm tired as hell...... ugh... I seriously need a rest."

Shine looked up at the sky, and noticed that it was already close to nightfall. She suddenly remembered something, and gasped, covering it with a hand.

"Oh God! We still have to find a place to stay!!" she exclaimed, which was slightly muffled by her hand. "I totally forgot!!"

Muramasa looked at her a little drowsily, and she kept nodding off, but she tried to stay awake as best as she could.

"Why don't you ask if you can camp here with Lan and the others?" she offered through a yawn. "Gomen."

Shine smiled at her Navi and said: "That's okay. Take a rest for awhile, okay?"

Muramasa nodded in thanks and mumbled: "Arigatou."

"Oyasuminasai," Shine said.

"Oyasuminasai," Muramasa returned lazily, and the screen flicked off.

With a sigh, Shine leaned against a wall.

"You okay?" Lan asked.

Shine looked at him, and asked: "Do you think I could camp with you guys? I had to look for a hotel, but with all the ruckus about Muramasa and Mega, I guess I forgot."

Lan smiled and said: "No problem. We always have an extra sleeping bag with us and I'm sure you can sleep with one of the girls."

Shine smiled too.

"Thanks Lan."

"Anytime."

"Hey, Chaud?" Shine asked, peeking into the tent cautiously.

"Hmm?"

Chaud looked up for a moment, looking at the young whitehead. She was looking at him with a curious look, her hair down onto her shoulders, framing her face.

"Yeah?" he asked, wondering why she'd come to him in the middle of the night.

"Would you mind if I sleep here? Yai snores, and the others closed their tents from the inside," Shine said, explaining the situation quickly.

Chaud suddenly noticed that she was clutching a pillow, and her PET. She had probably left the mattress and blanket outside.

"Yeah, sure, come on in," Chaud mumbled, lying back down again.

Shine smiled and pulled her mattress and blanket inside the tent, lying it on the other side of it, beside Chaud. She calmly placed her pillow down, and snuggled up under the blanket, smiling slightly.

"G'night," she said to Chaud, before attempting to go to sleep.

"Whatever," she heard Chaud mumble groggily.

Shine frowned, and sat up, looking at Chaud again, who had his arm slung over his eyes.

"We're not going through this again, are we?" she asked.

"Whatever," Chaud mumbled, but Shine noticed he was trying to hide a smirk.

Shine looked shocked, then irritated.

"You're doing that on purpose! Aren't you!?" she demanded, already knowing the answer.

"Whatever," Chaud said again, this time unable to stop his chuckling.

Shine growled a little, then a light seemed to pop up in her head.

Before Chaud knew what happened, his pillow was ripped away from under his head, and he got hit with it in his face!

"The hell?!" Chaud exclaimed, just before receiving another hit from his own pillow.

"You jerk!!" Shine said, hitting him again and again. "Say you're sorry!!"

Chaud sat up, and avoided another hit. He frowned, and grabbed Shine's pillow.

"Never!!" he said, and began to hit her too.

"Ow!! You coward!!" Shine shrieked, though it was quietly, so as not to wake the others. "I'm gonna get you for that one!!"

So they started an all-out pillow-fight, laughing as they got each other quite a couple of times. And it lasted for quite a while, until Chaud managed to 'unarm' Shine, and had her pinned down to her own mattress.

"Hey!!!" Shine exclaimed. "Let me go you jerk!!!!"

"No," Chaud said with a smirk. "Only if you say you're sorry."

Shine gasped, then frowned and said: "No way!! Now get off or else!!"

"Or else what?" Chaud challenged.

Shine thought fast for a moment, then smirked, much like her sister would.

"Or else, this!!" she said, and cocked her head up with lightning fast speed.

Chaud instantly jumped back, shocked out of his wits. Shine sat up, smiling wickedly.

"What was that for?!" Chaud demanded.

"To get you off of me!!" Shine said childishly, grabbing her pillow and snuggling back under her blankets. "Night."

Chaud didn't move for quite some time, before he finally fell asleep himself.

Neither of them had noticed the strange light flickering on, nor did they see it turn off.

"Hey Lan!! Wake up already!!" Shine called out, and dumped the bucket of ice water over the teen's head.

Lan shot up with a yelp of surprise, wide awake.

"What the--!?" he started.

"Morning Lan!!" Shine said with a smile.

"You sleep like a rock!! Honestly," Muramasa said with a smirk, arms crossed over her chest.

Mega snorted and said: "Then you won't think it's strange that he's hardly on time for school."

"Shut up, Mega!!!" Lan said, embarrassed.

Muramasa had the urge to roll her eyes and say 'Tell me something I don't know', but she kept her yap.

"Everybody's up already!!" Shine said. "Come on! Hurry up!!"

Shine lazily strolled past the river, when she noticed Lan standing on a small bridge of stones, one hand pulled back and his face contorted in concentration. Shine blinked in confusion, not comprehending what he was doing.

"What's he doing?" she asked.

"Catching fish, what else?" Muramasa answered sarcastically.

Shine blinked.

"With his bare hands?"

SPLASH!! SPLASH!! SPLASH!!

A rather big fish suddenly landed on the stone bridge, followed by plenty more about the same size. Shine gasped as Lan threw fish after fish onto the shore, without even breaking a sweat.

"Whoa," Shine exclaimed.

Muramasa simply chuckled, arms crossed over her chest.

"At least he's good at something," she mumbled.

Some hours later, everyone was on their way home. Surprisingly, Shine went with Chaud.

"Hey Shine," Muramasa suddenly said.

"Yeah?" Shine asked, pulling out her PET.

"What happened yesterday? I can't remember anything after Saito kicked me into the wall."

"I think it's best that you don't."

"But why were you so worried? You KNOW I can handle myself just fine!"

"Onnechan, I'm always worried about you."

"Stop. Calling. Me. THAT!!!" Muramasa hissed angrily.

"Gomen."

"Oh uh... Shine?"

"Hmm?"

Muramasa looked around, noting that Chaud wasn't around at the moment. She then turned to Shine.

"Did you kiss Chaud last night??"

Hallelujah. This chapter came out quick. Normally, a fight takes me days to write. I notice I'm better in describing NetBattles than ordinary battles. Now how can that be?
