Jessica: I'm so Jealous...
Viral: Why?
Jessica: Because your thinking of replacing me with that new girl Amy.
Viral: Oh come on! If I was going to replace you I would say it straight to your face. And I'm not going to so relax!
Amy: Yeah, I mean, you seem to be over reacting too much about this.
Jessica: (Walks over to Amy and Slaps her) Shut up noobie.
Amy: Die!! (Jumps at Jessica and the two begin to fight)
Nitalus: CAT FIGHT!!
Dialos: Twenty bucks on the new girl!
X: Forty on Jessica!!
Viral: Well while these two take care of this problem here's the next chapter of Return to Livra City. (Sorry for the delayed update, problems at school held me back on this chapter)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 2
A bright yellow redish color that came from the rising sun illuminated Livra City with the first rays of daylight. The light filtered through the blinds of Jesse's room as he tossed and turned in his sleep. His door was opened quietly, as X and Nitalus walked in holding a large bowl of water.
"Now are you sure this is going to work?" Whispered Nitalus.
"Dude has any prank that I've pulled so far failed?" X whispered back.
"Well..."
"That time with the bannana pudding, doesn't count. Now help me out here." He said.
The two placed the bowl of water next to Jesse's bed, and slowly moved his right arm over the edge of the bed and placed his hand in the water. Snickering quietly they snuck out of the room and closed the door.
"So how long do we have to wait?" Asked Nitalus
"Give it a few minutes. Just wait for the scream." Said X, who couldn't stop laughing.
The two made their way down stairs to the kitchen, where Amy and Jessica were watching Tv. Both were wearing the same cloak Jesse had in his dream. X and Nitalus also had the cloaks.
"Hey X, Nitalus, I thought you went to wake Jesse up?" Said Amy.
Just then a shout that could wake the dead two cities over, shook through their entire base.
"Done." They both said, sitting down at the dining table. X flipped to the news channel as Jesse stomped downstairs to the kitchen. He burst in the door, wearing a towel over his pants, where the 'problem' took place. His long hair was hanging over his face hiding his expression of rage.
"OKAY! THE FEATHERS AND GLUE I LET SLIDE, ALONG WITH THE BANNANA PUDDING INCIDENT, BUT MAKING ME PISS MY PANTS IN MY SLEEP IS GOING TOO FAR!!!" Jesse shouted at everyone.
"Um... we'll be in the next room." Said Amy, pulling Jessica out of the room.
"Dude, look... we didn't mean to get you this pissed off. We just..."
"Prepare to die." Interupted Jesse, cracking his knuckles.
"Hello welcome to the morning news, we go to our field man Cheddar Boxers, Cheddar?" Said the news lady.
"Thank you. I'm here at Restricted District 2, where earlier today there was a break in at the closed off Livra Corp building. Police are baffled at how the barricades were removed and it seems that nothing of great value was stolen, except for some building blueprints."
Jesse looked over at the Tv while holding the collars of the knocked out X and Nitalus. Dropping them, he sat down at the table and watched the report.
"...and the thing that has police and this news reporter scratching their heads is the way the building was broken into. The entire steel frame closing the door off was melted, and some parts of the doorway are still retaining a lot of heat. We have no idea who could have done this. If you have any information please call the Livra City Defense Force."
"Jessica, Amy, get in here." Called Jesse.
The two looked in from the doorway. "Is it safe?" asked Jessica.
"Yes it's fine." He said.
The girls sat down at the table as Jesse took X and Nitalus and set them in chairs at the table.
"It seems that there's still some activity from Viral's forces. Last night they broke into the old Livra Corp building and stole some blue prints. I have no idea what they could be using them for but we're going to investigate." Said Jesse.
"But the whole area is blocked off." Said Nitalus, regaining his consciousness, "How could anyone bypass the security?"
"It's seems that there was an immense amount of heat used to break through all the walls and barricades. So we're heading out. Oh, and will someone wake up X, and meet me in the garage. I have to change." He said, walking out of the kitchen.
A few minutes later everyone was within the garage of their base, which happened to be an old abandoned fire house. Within the garage sat 4 motorcycles, only one had a sidecar attached to it.
"Everyone to your bikes." Said Jesse, mounting the sidecar bike. Amy got in the side car as the others got on their respected bikes. Nitalus pushed a button on his bike, which opened the doors. The roar of four bike engines echoed out through the other restricted area of Livra city, as they drove out, and made their way towards Livra corp.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, in a city about 2 miles from Livra city, a battle was underway in a small warehouse.
"Train! Look out!" Shouted Sven, ducking behind a stack of crates.
Train leaped foward as the ground behind him exploded with multiple bolts of lightning. Rolling a few feet back, he looked back up at his enemy, who at the time was standing on another pile of crates.
"Black cat I was told by Creed, that you would give me some challenge in killing you. But all you've done is run from me. How pathetic." He said, jumping down. His feet released a small amount of electricity upon contact with the ground.
His enemy stood about a foot shorter than Train, and looked around 4 or 5 years younger than him, with silver and yellow streaked hair, and pale brown eyes. He wore a white shirt with black shorts, and a necklace with a pendant shaped like a lightning bolt around his neck.
'Damn it. He's stronger than I thought. We're going to have to retreat.' Thought Sven. "Train! Get up! We gotta get out of here!" He said, heading for the warehouse exit.
"Right!" Said Train, pulling his self up and heading in Sven's direction.
"Heh, not so fast!" Said the youth, vanishing and reappering in front of the warehouse's exit.
"Damn, he's persistant." Sven said, as he and Train came to a stop before the youth.
"Do you think you can escape from me and my lightning tao, Black cat?" He said, with a wicked grin on his face.
Sven looked around at the surroundings and saw a way out. "Take this!" He shouted, pulling his gun and shooting it at a steel pipe over the taoist's head. Water burst from the bullet holes, drenching their enemy.
"No! My powers!" He shouted, as small amounts of sparks shot from all over his body.
Train tackled the taoist and pinned him down, as Sven pulled out a small vial of blue liquid. He uncorked it and forced it into the mouth of the youth. Spitting the vial from his mouth, he shouted, "What the hell was that?!"
"A way to move you without too much of a struggle." Said Sven, as the kid's eyes grew heavy. The youth then stopped resisting and began to snore, as the sedative took effect.
"All right. Now let's get him to the hide out and interrogate him." Train said, climbing off the kid, and carrying him in his arms.
Just then a large gust of wind blew Train and Sven down. A swarm of insects flew in and covered the taoist's body, then flew back out onto a giant moth of a silver haired, purple bandage covered faced taoist.
"Not today Black Cat!" Shouted Shiki, as his giant moth flew away. Sven got up and quickly threw something at him, which stuck to his coat. Train got up and the two watched him fly off.
"What'd you throw at him?" Asked Train.
"Tracer. Now we can keep track of where some of them may be at." Sven said.
"So now what?"
"Well, let's get back to the base and eat something, then make a plan."
------------------------------------------------------------
Back in Livra city...
"What the hell?" Said Amy. She stared at the melted doorway in awe. Most of them did, Jesse had a troubled look on his face though.
'Why do I feel like, I've seen this before.' He thought, looking the damage over. They all were outside the Livra corp building, investigating the break in. As Jesse looked around the lobby for any clues he was called up to the first level by X.
"What is it?" Said Jesse, emerging from the elevator.
"Look at this boss." He said, pointing at the ground outside the room where the blueprints were taken from. Walking over, he looked and saw two sets of foot prints. One was small like a child or woman's, and the other was partially melted into the floor.
"So there was more than one, but these don't help much. Keep checking around here, I'm going back down stairs, to look a little more." Jesse said, walking back down the stairs.
"Yes sir." Said X.
As he walked stepped back into the elevator he noticed a small stand of black hair outside the elevator door. He picked it up and looked it over, as he went up to the 20th floor. The doors opened and the large room where Viral met his end was revealed to his eyes. The remains of their battle were still clearly visable on the walls and floors.
He just stood there lost in thought when an explosion took place down in the lobby. Pulling out his communicator he asked, "What's happening down there?"
"Boss! Get down here! We're under attack!" Said a terrified Amy.
Jesse dashed into the elevator, and started to transform his hand into metal, then punched the ceiling, only to clutch his hand and shout out in pain. Looking at it, his hand was normal. Nothing was transformed.
'What the heck?' He thought. 'My hand didn't change. Something's wrong.'
"Hurry boss! We need you!" Came Nitalus' voice from the communicator.
"Come on, work!" Jesse said, clutching his wrist. This time his hand was completely covered with some type of black metal. "No time to climb, gotta drop!" Punching the floor a couple times, he created a hole large enough for him to drop through. He leaped down the hole feet first, quickly descending to the lobby. His cloak fluttering around himself, Jesse grabbed on to the wall with his metal hand and snagged a pipe just before he hit the ground. He then released it and dropped down about five feet, landing before the closed elevator doors
"Hold on everyone!!" He shouted, kicking the doors down.
To be continued...

Viral: Today we have a special guest with us for an interview, here's Mr. Sven Vollfied!!!
'Cue Screaming Fangirls'
Sven: Hey what's up Viral?
Viral: Well I should ask you that. I haven't seen you since Livra City. How have things been going for you, Train, and Eve?
Sven: Well the same really. Same fights, same battles, same amount of cash.
Viral: What about that bounty from the "Other" Viral? Didn't that give you more than enough?
Sven: With bills, food costs, and about 80 other things we're flat broke again.
Dialos: Hey Sven.
Sven: Dialos? I thought you were dead?
Viral: He is, in the story anyway, but a couple hours of Cgi can make anyone's death seem real.
Sven: Good point. Oh by the way, did Jesse see his parents again?
Viral: Yeah actually. To all the people who read the first Livra City story, if you remember, "Jesse" got directions to where his parents house was. After the ending of the story, he did return. But he then came back to Livra city about 3 days later, when seeing a news report about Viral "Followers".
Sven: Woah, he's been busy.
Viral: Yeah he has
Train: Sven We gotta go!
Sven: Hold on! Sorry Viral.
Viral: No problem, thanks for stopping by. Hope to see you all again some time.
Sven: Okay, later! (Walks out)
Dialos: I don't like it that people say I'm dead.
Viral: Well you techincally did die. But let's not linger on this. Keep checking back for my next chapter. I will assure you there will be some action in my next chapter. So until then, L8r.
