Version 01, File 03: First High School Day
Previously in Rockman.EXE Level-Up Version 01, the foretold awakening became a reality and the first sign of the humanity's end has started! There were possible motives on why Abaddon.EXE woke up but it will be unveiled some day…For now, let us tone down the apocalypse's baby steps and go to Netto's brand new day…
-----
In the night, inside the small church located in Cyber City, there was a girl standing in front of the large sapphire Crucifix. She has pale white long hair, silver eyes, her skin is fair and she wore a green school uniform. She has a white Fusion Stream PET on her left hand and she mumbled in front of the blue crucifix,
"God, what went wrong in our world? God, I still love you…I don't know why we're experiencing this crisis?"
Suddenly, a large four-legged horned robot-like creature broke into the church and its arms turned into a pair of Gatling Vulcan arms. The horned four-legged mechanical beast pointed its artillery to the faithful young lass and it spoke to her,
"Time to die for you are one of the beings who wanted to permanently kill my lord!"
The girl raised her white PET and turned into a white female cross-fused Net Navi. Her appearance looked like a student with a pair of wide angel wings wielding a pair of glowing saber arms. She has white long hair, a halo above her head, a long-sleeved turtleneck shirt with a gold breastplate mounted with seven crystals of different color, a white skirt with a built-in belt attached and a pair of gold greaves on her foot.
The horned mechanical beast fired its guns to the angelic cross-fused Navi but he missed her, then the angel Navi stabbed the beast with her holy blades beast and only made a tiny incision, which did not gave the beast a pain.
"Is that the best thing that you can do, Micahniel.EXE?" the mechanical beast loudly asked the angelic slayer.
"I'm not yet done!" the angelic slayer Micahniel.EXE cheerfully answered the beast,
The mechanical beast emitted a small red ray from its horns, it is hitting Micahniel.EXE's torso, inflicting a small shock to its operator and an equipment loss, and that is her enchanted breastplate. Then the angelic slayer wailed loud due to the damage and fell down to the church's marble floor, filled with rubbles from the broken roof done by the beast.
The cross-fused Micahniel.EXE cannot stand up due to pain inflicted by the adversary. Consequently, she transformed back as her white-haired operator.
After defeating the angelic Navi, the beast blasted the church's door with its rockets and met the cross-fused Searchman.EXE, armed with two light rifle arms and pointed to the beast.
"Give it up now!"
Searchman.EXE's twin rifle arms emitted large bluish rays on its barrels and they were actually called as the Homing Ray modifier arm which he secretly obtained when the Level-up! Incident happened.
The rays pierced through the beast's bulky chest, made a clean hole to its horny head, and died. After battling the beast, Laika ended his cross fusion with Searchman.EXE and went inside the ruined church then he saw the brutally attacked lass unconscious. Laika touched her neck and touched her arms to determine if she is still alive.
The girl was still unconscious. Laika decided to make an emergency call to all medical personnel by doing a phone call using his PET. He was able to connect to the emergency lines and ordered them to come to the battle-ridden church to treat the wounded lass. He ended the call and looked on the temporarily lifeless lass until the paramedics come to treat her.
Suddenly, he received an unusual phone call and answered it,
"Who is this?" Laika answered to the mysterious caller.
"I am…I am the Way…I am the Light…I am the hope of the humanity…" the mysterious caller replied to the Russian defender by random phrase with questionable meaning.
"Who are you? Answer me!" the Russian Net Savior shouted to the unknown caller.
"I am one of the new disciples of our new god! You must cease your actions immediately before all humanity bow their heads and cry for mercy! the unknown caller answered.
"I'm serious! Who are you and who's the god you're talking about?" Laika shouted to the cultic caller.
"I am Disciple Krashpault and the god that I've mentioned awhile ago; he's the holy one, Abaddon.EXE!" the cultic caller answered him.
The wounded lass woke up and tried to stand up but she fell down, and then mumbled,
"It can't be…the god…the god of destruction risen is alive…Almighty Father, what can I do now? Another god came in our world…please tell me…"
Laika ended his call and went back to the weakened girl to check if she is alive. Then the paramedics arrived shortly after Laika checked her status. They took the girl to a nearby hospital to treat her injuries and Laika went away from the ruined church.
-----
A week after the first attack…
Dr. Hikari and Dr. Kanzaki met in a café near the Trident Tower then they sat on their seats and Dr. Kanzaki talked to Dr. Hikari,
"Dr. Hikari, I'm so sorry about the incident last month ago…"
"What was it?" the golden-brown haired scientist asked.
"We tried to defeat the ones who corrupted Eldeon but it turned out to be the inverse…I'm really sorry doc, I decided to leave the job for three months and go to Akitai, to see my younger sibling who would be a magnificent scientific leader some day…" the blue-haired scientist answered.
"I know that, bud…I, too had a mistake…Miss Shinai Minamoto was right about the threat she received…If we only tightened our security, those things won't happen. Ever. For now, I'll allow you to go to your brother and have yourself fixed."
"What did you say, doc?" the blue-haired scientist asked the great scientist
"You may leave your job for awhile and get yourself fixed." then the great scientist answered and grinned at him.
"What a joker! I'm no android, doc!"
The two scientists laughed hilariously as if they are all alone in the café. After all the funny minutes, Dr. Hikari's PET rang and it was his son. Netto asked his dad,
"Dad, are you comin' home?"
"Sure. I'll be there in two hours, I'm settling someone here…" Dr. Hikari answered his brown-haired son.
Suddenly, Laika interfered by phoning Dr. Hikari and said to him,
"Dr. Hikari, you won't believe this! I met a large virus in Cyber Town a week ago and fought it. Then I saw a white-haired girl badly attacked then the paramedics took her to the hospital. If you want to see her, go to the Cyber City General Hospital. One more thing, doc…"
"What is it, Laika?" Dr. Hikari asked Laika.
"Some cultist phoned me awhile ago and he threatened me as if I'm one of the cult's real enemies."
"A cultist?" the brown-haired scientist asked.
"Yeah" the Russian Net defender answered.
"You better watch yourself there and good luck"
-----
In Densan Cyber Square, the bloody red capsule opened and the female Navi woke up and she started walking in the torn Square. She wore a pink jumpsuit with red light shoulder armor, red bracers, red knee-length skirt, red boots with small angel wings, she also wore her red cape and armed herself with a long sword. She has sky blue long hair, fair skin and crystal blue eyes.
The beautiful female warrior Navi wandered around the Square and encountered a young, baby blue-colored human Navi wandering around, looking for a dead Navi then it approached the warrior Navi and hugged her legs hard. The female warrior Navi touched the kid Navi's baby blue helmet and asked,
"What's wrong, dear?"
"I…I…I have the devil…I know…why the old man…warned us…t-the destroyer was also the giver of these demonic fragments that I've carried." the baby blue kid Navi cried on her leg.
"You should have logged out awhile ago, dear…I can't do anything to you right now" the female warrior replied.
Suddenly, the baby blue kid Navi kicked her leg and leaped far away from her and the kid spoke,
"See…I have the devil inside…Princess Ellenia"
"How in the heavens did this kid knew my name?" Princess Ellenia.EXE thought.
The kid Navi lost its arms and instantly changed its lost arms into long fleshy slender arms and its legs suddenly mutated into a body of a horse with matching steel orbs attached to its body, the rest of the kid Navi's body parts were retained, and it became a mutated centaur Navi!
"This can't be! Navis turned into monsters! I remember this similar disaster before I was sent here" the battle princess Navi thought but suddenly felt a headache.
The centaur viral Navi extended its left arm, grabbed the ailing princess, and gave her a straight punch on her face with the centaur's extended right arm. The princess Navi transformed her sword into a buster pistol and tried to hit the centaur viral Navi's head but blocked by its fleshy arms.
The centaur Navi roared loud and rushed to Princess Ellenia and swiped her off to the ground and transmuted its arms into green beam blades then tried to stab the downed princess but it tore her cape instead then the princess fired her pistol to the centaur Navi and hit the nearly-innocent face of the mutated baby-blue kid.
After defeating the mutated centaur Navi, the princess suddenly felt something evil attached on her back and it was the remains of the mutated kid Navi! The remains began to turn into bladed tentacles stabbed on the princess' back but a mysterious Navi arrived and threw an EMP grenade on her and it disabled all of the tentacles and save Princess Ellenia.EXE.
The mysterious Navi looked like Rockman.EXE but without a helmet, he has black hair, he has silver breastplate and he has a silver spear.
"Princess Ellenia, do you have an operator?" the silver human Navi asked the princess.
"I don't have one but anyway, thanks...Hey! I know you! You're Musica.EXE, right?"
Musica.EXE nodded and he suddenly logged-out, leaving the princess alone.
-----
First week of June 20XX…
In the real world, the sun rose and made its way to the firmament to indicate it's time to rise and shine to all residents. In Netto's room, the brown-haired sleepyhead is still asleep, defying the smiling sun's warm presence and ignoring his trusty Navi's disturbance. His blue Navi shouted to him,
"Netto-kun! Please wake up!"
"Not now, Rockman" Netto murmured.
"Hello! It's your first day in Junior High, Netto!" his blue brother-like Navi shouted to him once again.
Netto did not respond to his Navi brother and so, his Navi brother shouted at him for another time,
"Hey! Netto! Meiru's going to Digitopia!"
Netto was alarmed and so, he woke up quickly and rushed downstairs and saw his caring mother cooking eggs for the family and his mother saw him, then she asked,
"Netto, what's up with you? It seems that you're in adrenaline rush today!"
"Meiru-chan's going to Digitopia!" Netto answered his mom with haste flowing in his words.
Then Rockman.EXE intervened,
"Haha! You fell on it!" Rockman.EXE chuckled.
"So it was you who's makin' up stories eh!" Netto laughed at his brother.
Haruka prepared their breakfast and then Yuiichiro came down and sat to his chair in the dining portion of their home. The family started eating their breakfast, then the father and son prepared themselves to their jobs…
After fifteen minutes of preparation…
Netto and his dad kissed Haruka and left their home…
-----
Since Netto and others are now in Junior High stage, they will be studying in Akitai Academy. This school is comprised of the pre-school, lower school, the upper school and college. This academy is one of the most sophisticated and advanced school in Electopia. Akitai is just five kilometers away from Cyber Town.
Welcome to Akitai Academy. This school is as three times wider than Pentagon and the buildings there are as tall as three Pentagon buildings stacked together and the school's walls are colored blue.
Netto and his dad went inside the academy and looked for a class list. Netto looked at the class list and found his name listed in 7-A. He also found Meiru's, Dekao's, Aragoma's, Shun's and Tohru's names listed on 7-A section and what a surprise! They are 15 in their class!
After looking up his name in the class list, they proceeded to Netto's room, which is located in the second floor of one of the large blue buildings in the academy.
Finally, they found his new classroom and then Dr. Hikari tapped his son's shoulder, left an advice about his studies and friendship, and left the academy.
Almost everybody in the entire academy is in his or her civilian clothes today, except for the teachers though.
Netto was wandering in the corridor until he met Meiru, Dekao, Tohru, Shun and Aragoma there and the group began to reunite once again…
"Hey Netto! Long time no see!" Aragoma shouted.
"Aragoma, why are you here?" Netto asked.
"'Cuz I need to hide from my former buds in Swapopolis!" the chess-loving operator answered the brown-haired lad.
Behind the gang, there was a pink-haired girl singing "Over Night" by Aya in the corridor. This girl wore a white long-sleeve cotton shirt, brown vest, and a red skirt with a pink cotton jacket tied on her waist and blue classroom sneakers. After five minutes, the pink-haired girl stopped singing and so, she went back to the room…
Inside their new classroom, there were teens flocked in one place, there were some seated innocently and still others are doing something else. The gang seated anywhere until the rest of their classmates round up in the classroom.
All thirty-six students are now in the room and now, their adviser arrived in front of the class. Their adviser has short brown frumpy hair, fair complexion, and hazel eyes. He has blue vest with four pockets, blue long denim pants, red black-striped rubber shoes and he had gray-framed oval glasses. Then the adviser introduced himself in front of the class,
"Hello Class 7-A, I am Daichi Aikachi, your class adviser, computer teacher and your magnificent social studies teacher"
"Today, we'll begin our day with introduction of our new students in this section, all newcomers please stand up" Mr. Aikachi said.
Netto and his friends stood up and there were some new ones too. The first one to introduce was Oyama Dekao.
"Hello! I'm Oyama Dekao of Akihara"
Dekao had a major makeover in his clothing! Dekao now wore a green long-sleeved shirt with his emblem at its back, black denim pants and green rubber shoes with slightly thick shoelaces.
Then the next was Aragoma Torakichi.
"Hello, I'm Torakichi Aragoma of umm…Densan city!"
Aragoma still had his old style and yet he has still had his chess prowess until now, then Shun introduced himself,
"I'm Obihiro Shun of Kotobuki"
Shun also had a major makeover! He is somewhat cheerful and a bit enlightened and yet, he is still wearing his old clothes (the one he wore in Battle Network 2) but he has a strange pendant in his neck.
Then it is Meiru's turn,
"Hello, I'm Meiru. Sakurai Meiru, it's nice to meet you all!"
Meiru also had a major makeover on her clothing. She wore a pink vest with her heart emblem on the left chest over her green cotton long-sleeved shirt, her blue knee-length skirt, her pair of black long socks and red school shoes.
Then it is Tohru's turn but he seemed to have slight hesitation yet he moved on,
"Hello, I'm Hikawa Tohru"
Tohru is now wearing his new clothing (actually, that is his EXE Movie clothing!) and he is cheerful. Still, he owns Iceman.EXE.
Then finally, it is Hikari Netto's turn!
"Hello! I'm Hikari Netto of Cyber Town, nice to meet you all!"
Netto wore a white long-sleeved shirt under his blue vest with his emblem on his left chest, blue long denim pants with a PET holster and orange rubber shoes.
Finally, the introduction of these six friends ended! Then the spunky pink-haired girl introduced herself cheerfully,
"Hello! I am Yuka! Minamoto Yuka of Shibuya!"
Yuka wore a white long-sleeve cotton shirt, brown vest, and a red skirt with a pink cotton jacket tied on her waist and blue classroom sneakers. She also had pink long straight hair, pinkish eyes and fair skin.
Then a green-haired boy stood up and he introduced himself happily,
"Hello, I'm Munakata Hatoru! Nice to meet you all!"
Hatoru has chin-length green hair, hazel eyes and he has fair complexion. He wore a green long-sleeved shirt, blue short-sleeved hooded blazer, yellow breeches with pockets, and he has green phat rubber shoes.
Then a light blue-haired boy stood up and introduced himself with simplicity,
"I'm Wakayama Hanato"
Hanato wore a brown hooded vest with a symbol of a winged version of Gutsman.EXE's emblem, a short-sleeved white cotton shirt, blue denim pants and red shoes. His eyes were bluish and he has normal complexion.
Then a mysterious dark blue-haired boy stood up and introduced himself,
"Hello, I'm Takano Yuichi"
Yuichi has dark bluish neck-length hair, he has crystal blue eyes, he has fair complexion. He wore a dark blue long-sleeved jacket with fur in the jacket's neckline, black long denim pants and black rubber shoes.
Then, a blue-haired girl stood up and introduced herself in front of the class,
"Ohayou! I am Akizuki Mikage. You can just call me Mikage or Mika for short!"
Mikage has blue slightly curled chin-length hair, bluish eyes, she also has normal complexion and she has braces on her teeth. She wore a blue short-sleeved cotton shirt over her pink long-sleeved shirt. Her blue shirt has a flame-like winged emblem patched on her shirt's left chest. She also wore a blue denim skirt, pink stockings and baby-bluish sneakers and she has blue-framed round eyeglasses because she's near-sighted.
Then Mikage's sister introduced herself in front of the class,
"Hello, I'm Akizuki Minami or you can just call me as Minami"
Minami has long blue hair, ruby eyes; her complexion is slightly darker than her sister is. She wore a gray short-sleeved jacket with a small lightning emblem on its right chest, she also has black denim jeans with small silver skull-like key chains attached on her belt, she also wore a black-framed oval eyeglasses and she has bluish sneakers. Minami was far-sighted due to hereditary defect.
Then a blue spiky-haired boy stood up and introduced himself to the class with full energy,
"Hi! I'm Kanzaki Heiji! You can just call me Heiji instead"
Heiji has blue spiky hair, blue eyes, he has fair complexion and he's slightly taller than Netto. The spiky-haired boy wore blue-framed eyeglasses, short-sleeved polo shirt, dark-bluish jeans and dark bluish shoes. Heiji was the first Kanzaki to be near-sighted.
Then a blue-haired girl stood up and introduced herself merrily to the class,
"Hello! I'm Kanzaki Hitomi! Just call me Hitomi!" then she smiled at the masses inside.
Hitomi is Heiji's sibling. She has short blue hair, blue eyes, she has fair complexion and she wore round eyeglasses. She wore an azure bluish long-sleeve cotton shirt, a blue cotton four-pocketed hooded vest over her long-sleeve shirt, she also wore a knee-length cotton shorts and a blue classroom sneakers. Hitomi was also near-sighted.
Then another blue-haired boy stood up and introduced himself cheerfully to the class,
"Hello! I'm Kanzaki Hatsuya! You can just call me Hatsuya or Hats!"
Among the Kanzaki siblings, Hatsuya was the youngest but these siblings were born triplets. Hatsuya has blue frumpy hair, blue eyes, fair complexion and near-sighted. He wore blue-framed round eyeglasses, sky-bluish long-sleeved cotton shirt under his blue short-sleeved jacket with a winged sword emblem on its back. He also wore yellow breeches with pockets and bluish rubber shoes.
After their introduction, the class divided into three five-man groups and made their group motto.
An hour after their introductory activity, it was recess time and almost everybody in the class left except for Shun and Yuichi.
-----
In the school's canteen, Dekao showed-off his Gutsman.EXE to his new classmates and so Hatoru and Hanato brought out their winged PETs, uttered their Navis' names, and plugged-in to Dekao's PET.
-----
In Dekao's PET computer, two human Navis emerged from their operators PETs and they saw Gutsman.EXE standing in front of them.
The blue-haired Navi wore a gray trench coat with an odd symbol on its back, black leather pants, brown boots and armed with a green beam quarterstaff. The blue-haired Navi stepped in front first and drew a pentagram out of thin air and shouted,
"Hatoru-sama! I need five Jolter Bolt (JoltBolt) chips!"
"OK! Jolter Bolt spell chip, slot-in!" Hatoru shouted, then he inserted five bluish chips to his green winged PET.
The magician Navi raised its beam quarterstaff, five purple lightning bolts hit the quarterstaff's tip, and he pointed his staff in Gutsman.EXE and fired the bolts off to the big brute.
Gutsman.EXE hindered the first two bolts by producing a light barrier but the succeeding bolts pierced through the barrier and made a hole on the brute's arms.
"Huh! This can't be!" Dekao was dreadfully surprised.
"Oh yeah, I haven't introduced my Navi to you!" the green-haired student giggled.
"Who on earth is he! I can still pound him!" Dekao snapped.
"Ok then, his name's Sieghart.EXE! He's my magician Navi!" Hatoru answered.
Dekao brought out five Gutsman Missile Fist chips (MislFist) and loaded it to his PET and then finally Gutsman.EXE unleashed a barrage of fists to the cheery mage Navi. At first, Sieghart.EXE evaded two fist missiles but on the third fist, Sieghart.EXE was pushed violently back to his friend's fully armored red Navi. Then the fourth fist missile was directed to the armored Navi but then pre-empted its attack with a slash in the center of the brute's fist missile and it dematerialized into pixels.
"Dekao-kun, not all winnings can be attained by brute force alone! Get some coconut shells!" Hanato grinned at him.
"You're making me angry! Gutsman.EXE! I'll give you some reflex!" Dekao shouted to his monkey-like Navi.
Gutsman.EXE nodded and Dekao took a speed program data and installed it on Gutsman.EXE's system and his agility was raised!
Gutsman.EXE unleashed a barrage of huge fists thanks to the agility program installed, Sieghart.EXE was hit by series of fists, and Hatoru was amazed,
"Dekao! That's great! You were able to utilize your Navi's fist missiles well! Anyway, you got me!" Hatoru shouted to his Navi, "Sieghart, log-out now!"
"Yes master!" Sieghart.EXE replied and he went out from the computer, back to Hatoru's PET.
After defeating Sieghart, the red armored Navi unleashed a pair of red double-bladed swords and shouted at his operator,
"Hanato, bring out my Dragon Armor +13!"
"Ok, Zal!" Hanato replied.
Hanato inserted a dark-bluish chip with a picture of a MU Online Dragon Armor, Zal.EXE gained the whole set then his double-bladed swords shed golden light, and he had a pair of glowing dragon wings on his back.
"Gutsman.EXE, you shall be burned by my blade! Dragon Spirit Slash!"
Zal.EXE flew towards Gutsman.EXE and drew a burning cross with his burning swords and Gutsman.EXE was logged-out after execution.
-----
After the Net Battle, Dekao felt ashamed because there were other people who can defeat Gutsman.EXE in spite of its power. Somehow, Hanato and Hatoru congratulated him for fighting until the end.
-----
Meanwhile, in room 7-A, Shun and Yuichi were talking as if they were close siblings,
"Yuichi, do you have parents?" Shun asked
"No, they passed away seven years ago, they died in a terrorist attack in Digitopia. I don't know why they're involved in that attack" Yuichi mournfully answered. "How about you? Do you have parents, Shun?" Yuichi asked the same idea.
"They're dead too. Three years ago, in a plane crash. The airplane my parents rode was severely infected by a virus, and so they died...Thanks to the virus," Shun replied.
"Who's taking care of you now, Shun?" the dark-bluish melancholic boy asked.
"Most probably, some Digitopian guy adopted me," the ex-Gospel leader answered.
"How about you, Yuiichi?" Shun asked the same idea to Yuichi.
"Actually, I am from a Christian orphanage somewhere in Okuden but I escaped from those nuns," Yuichi admitted his quarter of wretched past.
"But why?"
"I would like to stay there because the nuns there were good to all of us, I took my grade school years there on that orphanage and did well, but one time, there were five bullies who bullied me there and I remember that they were bullying me because of my parents' death. You know what they said,"
"What?"
"My parents died in a stampede somewhere in a place called Phasigna (Pasig City actually!)"
"Then what did you do to them?"
"I fought them single-handedly as if I had a demon dwelling within me, I nearly killed them actually then I escaped," and Yuichi added, "Before I came here to Akitai, someone adopted me and he called himself as the 'Guide to Utopia' and treated me like a real child,"
"The Guide to Utopia? Is he nuts!" Shun replied.
Yuichi stood up and slapped Shun's cheek, stomped on his shoulder and grabbed him then shouted,
"What did you say to my foster dad! Can you repeat it, dimwit!"
"Is he nuts! What's your foster dad anyway, a false prophet or a cultist!" Shun shouted to the enraged classmate.
"He's not a false prophet you're thinking of! He's one of the disciples who would someday bring us to the Utopia without being killed and brought back to our Creator!" Yuichi angrily replied then he punched Shun again.
"Your foster dad is a heretic! I don't believe in heretics!" Shun madly shouted and punched Yuichi's chest.
Hatsuya, Mikage and Minami came back to the room and Mikage shouted to the two warring teens,
"What's wrong with you guys!"
Hatsuya and Minami held the two warring boys yet, these two were yelling to each other like cats and dogs.
"Your dad might be the fifth Anti-Christ!" Shun madly shouted.
"Well, you might bring back Gospel once again, Shun!" Yuichi replied with anger stabbing Shun's feelings.
"So what! I'll be killing heretics too!" Shun went ballistic and hit Hatsuya's chest with his elbow and attacked the son of an alleged heretic.
Minami slapped Yuichi and yelled at him,
"Stop fighting guys!"
Hatsuya caught Shun's right arm and did a bearhug move to stop Shun from fighting Yuiichi.
The rest of the class arrived in the room and saw them resolving their heated battle, so Mr. Aikachi approached the warring students and asked both of them angrily,
"Who started this quarrel?
Both of them were blaming to each other but actually, Shun started it and both of them were hurt during the quarrel.
"I did it, sir" Shun admitted.
"Hatoru! Yuka! Take these two in the guidance center for a talk!" Mr. Aikachi commanded Yuka and Hatoru.
Yuka and Hatoru brought their warring classmates to the guidance center, then the class moved on to the second part of their introductory class,
"All right, class. First day of school, two of your siblings had a bash awhile ago and since that thing happened, it brought a reminder and that is..."
"About offenses and disciplinary actions, sir?" Minami guessed.
"You got that right, Minami!" Mr. Aikachi was amazed.
Then the discussion about class rules, school rules, offenses and sanctions were tackled for about two hours...
After two hours of school rules orientation, it's lunchtime!
-----
In the school's canteen, Hitomi, Heiji, Hatsuya, Mikage, Minami, Yuka and Hatoru were eating together in a long table...
After eating, Mikage brought out a sketchpad and drew a Gravitation character and then Hatsuya brought out a hardcover book containing his original fiction entitled "File of the Utopia: Futile Tomorrow" and Minami read it first. Then Mikage looked at Hatsuya's fiction and she asked the blue-haired budding writer,
"You write fan fictions! I thought we're the only anime fans in this class,"
Hatsuya nodded and he even brought out a folder containing twenty pages of Digimon fan fiction and shared it to his anime-loving classmate.
"Hats, are you going to join them?" Hatoru asked.
"Well, all of the anime-lovers are on one table! So, I'll join them"
Hitomi began singing "Fields of Hope" and Mikage listened to her nearly sweet voice because she got the song way too high, so Mikage and Hitomi sung the same song and Hitomi followed Mikage's version.
-----
In the other table, Netto and his gang were eating except Shun.
"I believed that there were heretics in this world and he's one of them," Shun mumbled.
Then Netto talked to Shun,
"Shun, why did you say that to Yuichi? It's just our first day here in Akitai Academy, do you want to garner the first bad record?"
Shun didn't answer Netto's question, Shun bowed down and reflected his wrongdoing...
-----
Back to Mikage's gang's table, Yuichi came into the group and Minami asked,
"Yuichi, is it true that your dad was a cultist?"
"No, more of a preacher of a special religion who believed that by eliminating the 'cancer cells' of this world, Utopia will exist, Yuichi replied.
"That's weird," Hitomi intervened.
"Cancer cells of this society? What are you talking about, Yuichi?" Mikage asked.
"That's one of the things that I shouldn't tell, you must find it out by yourselves," the persecuted classmate answered.
"You mean like the Digitopia's bad officials?" Hatsuya asked.
Yuichi nodded and went back to the room all alone...
-----
In the classroom 7-A, Yuichi was standing in front of the LCD touch boards and Abaddon.EXE's face appeared on both screens then he asked Yuichi,
"My young disciple, Takano Yuichi, did you find any Digi-Heart or the Gaia Weapon programs in your place?"
"I have not found one, master but there's this guy who spat a bad tongue against your human master. He called himself as Shun Obihiro, a former leader of Net Syndicate Gospel," Yuichi reported to the digital god.
"Shuryou Gospel! He was a human after all! I must warn all of the disciples and eliminate that menace! Shun is a threat to the congregation! He called my Lord Mokushi a heretic! He must be punished!" Abaddon.EXE exclaimed wildly.
"Thank you, o gracious knight" Yuichi concluded their meeting by genuflecting in front of him.
-----
Netto had a great first day but for his friend Shun, it turned out to be a fated encounter that would spark conflict between the "Order of the Utopia" and other Net syndicates, including Gospel.
Is this another sign believed to be one of the triggers to execute the end of the world?
