"Are you sure you want to go back to my place to study?" said Lan, "So you don't have to walk all the way back to your dorm?"
"Well, you can't go in the girl's dorm, and I think it wouldn't be a problem to drive me back?" Mayl said smiling at Lan,
"No problem Mayl." Lan said laughing, "So how's your netbattlening coming along?"
"Were getting better." Mayl said, "But there is room for improvement."
"Well, if you need any help," said Lan, "You come to me."
"Will do Lan." Mayl said,
"We'll beat you one of these days." Roll giggled from Mayl's P.E.T,
"Do I see this as a challenge?" Lan said talking back to Roll,
"Maybe it is." Roll said jokingly,
"Lan." Megaman tried to say from Lan's P.E.T,
"I'll fight you right here right now." Lan said not paying attention to Megaman,
"Let's do it!" Roll said,
"After Lan gets his homework done, then we'll netbattle." Mayl suggested,
"Fine." Roll said,
"Alright." Lan said sadly, "But you be ready!" Megaman was relieved that Mayl stepped in. He felt uncomfortable fighting his best friend, or to say his crush. He is also afraid of hurting her one of these times when they netbattle. He would like to tell Lan that he feels uncomfortable about fighting Roll, but he is afraid of what Lan would say about him.
I didn't take a long time until they got to Lan's house, and up to his room to study. After about an hour of Lan sinking in about .1% of what they studied, Lan and Roll finally wanted to netbattle.
"Ok, let me do something real quick." Mayl said and she left the room. Megaman found this to be the perfect opportunity to take to Lan about the situation.
"Hey Lan?" Megaman said,
"What is it Megaman." Lan said,
"Well..." Megaman choked on his words. It was now or never. "I... don't feel comfortable fighting Roll."
"Why? Because she's a girl." Lan said,
"No... Well, I don't want to hurt her." explained Megaman,
"Don't worry about that Megaman." Lan said, "They installed a safety switch on the Battlements, so there is nothing to worry about." This almost laid Megaman at ease. He still felt uncomfortable that he was fighting his crush. Mayl came back in the room and got her stuff. Lan and Mayl walked to his Lan's car and drove back to the high school. Lan and Mayl walked to the Net Battling Room and Lan walked to one of the Realism Battlements.
"Are you sure you want to use the Realism Battlement?" Mayl asked,
"Why not?" Lan said, "Plus, I'll make the mach interesting." Mayl shrugged in agreement and they jacked there navi's in.
"Is everything ready?" Mayl said,
"Yep." Lan said switching on the safety switch, and the announcer started speaking,
"Warning! This is a Realistic Battlement!" explained the narrator, "Make sure you have the safety switch on!" The narrator continued, "This is how the Realism Battlement works, in the normal battlements, a sword chip would just do 80 hit points. But in a Realism Battlement, depending where you hit him/ her, may result in an instant delete. Example, a Sword attack to the chest up is an instant delete. A Sword attack from the legs under, is between 150-600 hit points. Do you agree to these conditions?"
"Yes." Lan and Mayl said,
"May the match begin!" The narrator announced.
"Cannon! Battle Chip in Download!" Lan said,
"Invis! Battle Chip in Download." Mayl said. Lan and Megaman knew Mayl's strategy, but Mayl and Roll also knew there's. Mayl's strategy was sneak attacks. Sense Roll wasn't as strong as Megaman, she was somewhat smarter than him. When she goes invisible Megaman gets worried. But after all the battles he and she were in, he got better at predicting where Roll would pop up. Lan and Megaman's stragety on the other hand was completely different from Mayl's. Lan and Megaman's strategy is to defend and attack at the right time. (Some strategy huh?) Megaman sensed Roll was near, but didn't know when she was going to attack. It was also "Hardcore" mode. and if Roll hits him somehow, he's dead. Before he could think, Roll appeared behind him with a Sword chip. Megaman moved out of the way, but Roll scraped his side with her Sword chip. Megaman looked down at his side to see the side of his suit ripped and his "blood" slowly flowing out. Megaman looked up at Roll to see her have a devilish grin.
"Lan! I need a recover chip!" Megaman shouted,
"Ok Megaman!" Lan said trying to find a recover 100. Lan found the chip but accidently dropped his Recover 100 chip for Megaman. As he bent down to get the chip, and he accidently hit the safety switch of with his elbow.
"Recover 100! Battle Chip in Download!" Megaman's side was slowly covered with data while he was dodging the spread gun shots from Roll. Data covered Megaman's side and replaced the wound with his original features. Megaman's total health was 1000, while Roll's was 840. Megaman didn't even touch her hit points, while he was already at 500. Megaman had to step up his game, QUICK!
"Lan! Give me Rock Cube!" Megaman said,
"Ok Megaman!" Lan said, "Rock Cube! Battle Chip In! Download!" Megaman put the rock in the middle of Roll's side of the field.
"Lan! Give the H-Burst Program Advance!" Megaman said,
"Ok Megaman!" Lan said, "Spreader L, M, and N! Battle Chip In! Download!" The chips combined and Megaman's arm turned into some type of cannon. Lan figured out what Megaman was going to do and looked at Mayl.
"It's all over Mayl." Lan said. As he looked back at his P.E.T he noticed that the safety switch was off. Megaman pointed at the Cube and was about to fire.
"MEGAMAN STOP!" Lan shouted, "THE SAFETY SWITCH IS OFF!"
"What?" Megaman said firing the H-Burst.
"NO!" Lan shouted as he turned the safety switch back on, but it was too late. The H-Burst ricocheted of the cube and hit Roll. Roll was knocked down and lied there almost dead.
"THE SAFETY SWITCH WAS OFF!" Lan shouted at Megaman,
"What!" Megaman and Mayl shouted back,
"Ugh..." Rol said,
"Roll!" Megaman shouted running to her side,
"Ugh... Mega..." Roll said,
"Roll, I'm sorry." Megaman said clutching her hand,
"Roll!" Mayl said. Megaman lied there holding Roll's hand.
"Roll?" Megaman softly,
"..." was Roll's reply. After about a minute, Mayl jacked Roll out and Megaman was left kneeling there.
"How's Roll?" Lan asked,
"I think she'll be fine." Mayl said, "I'm going to go back up to my room to help Roll. See you tomorrow?"
"Sure thing." Lan said, and Mayl walked away. Lan sat there for 5 minutes watching Megaman kneel were Roll feel when the H-Burst hit her.
