--30 minutes after leaving the tournament--

Lan: Do you still have the signal Raika?
Chaud: I'd hope so. We lost sight of her awhile ago.
Raika: I am getting a faint signal. It looks like it is coming from the direction of Gauss' Mansion.
Lan: Wait, Chaud. You said you didn't find anything there.
Chaud: I didn't. And, I know I didn't miss anything. I searched that place top to bottom.
Raika: Cool it you two. The signal is getting a little stronger but...it seems to have PASSED Gauss' Mansion.
Chaud: Next time here the whole story before you jump to conclusions.
Raika: It is heading out into the ocean.
Lan: Whatever, Chaud. So, where in the ocean is it going?
Raika: About 3 miles out. The signal stopped. It is getting stronger as we get closer.
Lan: Good. That means we're almost there. Now, I'll be able to get back at that conniving Telsia.
SearchMan: Raika. Take look out the window. There is something you might want to see.
Raika: No way! It can't be.

--Upon hearing this, the 3 NetSavers look out the window to see what appears to be a medium size "Floating City"--

Lan: It's a city in the sky!
Charlie: Cool it. We're right here.
Chaud: How could our satellites have missed something like this?! It isn't even invisible!
ProtoMan: That might explain it. The electric disturbance would be enough to distort any type of video gathering.
SearchMan: Only a major surge of energy could cause something like this.
Raika: Lower us down, Charlie.
Chaud: Look there. It's the helicopter Telsia got away in.

--As the copter gets close to the ground, Lan jumps out and rushes in--

Raika: Lan, Stop! We don't know if they have any traps!
Lan: That doesn't matter! I have a score to settle!

--As Lan advances forward, Netopian security robots open fire from the sides of the landing pad--

Chaud: Charlie, get out of here. We'll call you when we're done.

--Charlie hears Chaud and takes off in the helicopter after everyone is off--

Charlie: Just because my copter's yellow, doesn't make it a taxi!

--Inside the city, Lan stops running from exhaustion and a TV screen turns on with Telsia on it as Chaud and Raika soon catch up--

Telsia: -Innocent-like- Oh, hey guys! How's it going? I didn't expect to see you here.
Lan:-with an angry tone- You... so you are here.
Telsia: Nothing gets past you, short stuff.
Chaud: Don't give us that tone! You betrayed us and may have doomed the entire world!
Raika: You think we were going to let you get away with that?
MegaMan: And you, Mist. You saved me from those navi's, became comrades. Was all that an act?
Mist: It might have been. Then again, it is probably better if you found it out yourself.
Telsia: I'm sorry, guys. But, I have to get going. I am still on the clock, ya know. I can't keep my employer waiting. Catch you later! -TV shuts off-
Chaud: We have to come up with a plan. -Looks around- Wait, where did Lan go?
Raika: I'm not sure. SearchMan. Try to find MegaMan's signal. Wherever MegaMan is, Lan will surely be there.
SearchMan: Roger. -finishes scan- He's...right here?! No, he's below us.
Chaud: How did he get down there? Nevermind. It's Lan. It's best to get to him and ask questions later.
Raika: It must've been while we were distracted. C'mon! Let's find a way down there.
Chaud: We better make the search quicker. SciLab! Requesting a Dimensional Area!

--At SciLab, Famous activates the Dimensional Generators and a Dimensional Area appears around the whole city--

Chaud and Raika: SynchroChip in, Download! CrossFusion!
Chaud: Let's find a way there.

--Meanwhile below them, Lan is strapped down in a chair inside a cell where an old, familiar voice spoke to him--

Voice: Lan? Lan? LAN? Is that you?
Lan: Yeah, who's there?
Voice: So, it is you! Hang in there, cowpoke. I'm sure your amigos will have us out of here in a jiffy.
Lan: No way. How'd you get here, Maysa?!
Maysa: That low-down, no good, snake of a snake Telsia trapped me here. I reckon it was about an hour ago. Blackrose and Mysteriu are somewhere around here. They avoided capture, I hope.
Lan: Hmm, so she fooled you, as well. Wait a minute! How could she capture you guys when we just followed her here?
Maysa: She sent off a message to Commander Beef and company, saying that NeoGrave was out here. We found this here city, and investigated. Next thing I know, I'm strapped to a chair like a horse to a pole.
Lan: That must be why she said that before.

--On a TV set, Kid Grave appears--

Kid Grave: So glad to see you enjoy each other's company. Because, I have news for you. The both of you will be staying here for a long time...until we have no further use for you...
Lan: Use. What do you mean by that?
Telsia: -On Kid Grave's right side- Oh. Allow me to answer that. We are going to use you to get to SciLab. While I was there, I found even more Data that would be useful. However, it cannot be moved. So, we are just going to have to make our move there. I'm sure you are familiar with the being that was called "Duo" correct?
Lan : Why's he any of your concern?
Telsia: Tisk, tisk. Such an angry tone. Didn't I tell you to take some advice from Chaud on how to be calm? I guess you weren't paying attention. Well, you might want to pay attention to this. The data I discovered at SciLab will help NeoGrave to reconstruct the "Program" that Duo used in his attempt at Earth's erasure. Once we get our hands on that data, and combine it with both the prize from the tournament and the data from my Manifestation Chip, we will unleashed a horde of giant-sized viruses on the world, bringing Duo's mission to it's final objective. evil laugh The complete erasure of the planet Earth!
Lan: But, why would you go this far!? Innocent people are living here and you want to kill them all?!
Telsia: Oh, I wouldn't worry about them right now. You have your own problems to worry about.

--Suddenly, Lan's anger begins to grow and the Crest of Duo appears on his hand, shining brightly as the straps on the chair disappear--

Telsia: Hmmm. Looks like you still have a few tricks left up your sleeve. Well, then. I guess we will let you two have some time alone. It may be your last. -TV shuts off-

MegaMan: Are you sure you should use that, Lan?
Lan: We don't have any other choice.

--Lan then uses the crest to break the bars on the cell they were in--

Maysa: What is tarnation did you just do? And, how did you do it?
Lan: No time to explain. Let's go.

Telsia: -Over a PA system- Good evening, officers of the Net Police.
Raika: Great. What now?
Telsia: I wouldn't shout out like that with what I have to say...if you want to protect this planet, that is.

--With Lan and Maysa reunited, they try to escape while Telsia brings troubling news to Chaud and Raika. What could this news be? Find out what happens next time on MegaMan NeoStar!--
