"All right, Layla," Dad says, "we'll allow you to go on as MegaGirl. And I'm expecting that you'd do so without my permission anyway."

"Says who?" I say.

"Says me," Omega-Xis says, "I'm not letting you off the hook until I'm sure the FM-ians stop coming, and maybe even after that."

I sigh and say, "Mom, Dad, I have to go, cause I need to go MegaGirl and practice with the Battle Cards."

Mom and Dad nod, and I run out of the room.

"Now you'll have to keep your half of the promise," Omega-Xis says, "You have to help me get rid of Ophiuca."

"I know, I know," I say, "We need to meet up with Whitney and Lyra though."

I grab my skates and put them on.

"Otherwise you won't know how Geo and I fought," Omega-Xis says, "and I don't even care if Lyra's there, as long as you get some training in before we meet Crown."

I walk outside and say, "Yeah, as long as we train before any FM-ian shows in general."

I stop and smack myself on the head, saying, "I forgot the Visualizer! I'll have to get it."

I walk back inside, closing the door, and find the Visualizer on the counter near the refrigerator.

Putting it on, I walk back outside and head for the wavehole.

I stop at the wavehole and look around.

"I sense something," Omega-Xis says in a low voice, "and it's not Lyra."

"Me too," I mutter, "It's like someone's here…and they've been waiting for a while."

Omega-Xis leaves the TR and flies above me.

"Anything?" I ask.

"Yeah," Omega-Xis says, "We need to transform. The lesson's going to take place without Lyra."

I nod and activate the blue V-Card.

"EM Wave Change!" I say, "Layla Woods, On! The! Air!"

The familiar rush, and I'm on the EM wave road.

"About time," a female voice says, "I've been waiting for you, MegaGirl."

I look around until I see a girl.

She wears a tiara-looking headpiece, a cloak or mantle, and a shirt and skirt combo underneath. Three ghost-looking creatures surround her.

"I am Crown Lily," the girl says, "and you have something I need."
