To Keaton, it was good to be back in his office.

In his old chair, sitting back, with his small white reading glasses on, relaxed for the moment, listening to some classical music from small speakers across the office, a cup of black coffee on his desk, with two small round biscuits next to it, an opened green cover book in one hand.

All he was thinking about, is when this small outbreak problem on the planet Char is done with, things can truly get back to normal, back to the war he wants to finish with those two rival empires to HIS own, as he likes to think…all of those planets they could have, all those resources…he would be regarded as a military hero…

His little rest was quickly finished though, as Rufus and Dr Robotnik had both entered, walking towards the desk, and standing there, waiting for him to speak first.

Keaton leaned forward and gave them a small smile, putting the book gently down on the table. "I've been hearing what you two have been up too. Sitting around, sending out monitoring reports to the borders? Not the best way of spending your time…if you didn't know, Dark Megaman is gone, and Earth X is ours again."

"Good work sir." Rufus said, sounding like he was bored out of his mind.

" We're going to start sending people back to that planet soon. Rufus, I want you to lead the operation, since you don't have anything better to do."

"Understood sir."

"And Robotnik? I need you to sort out a new plan of outposts on Char. It seems whoever set them up last time has let us down, as the people and the space station near that planet have been overrun by the ugly creatures on that planet, the Zerg."

Dr Robotnik looked a little worried. "J..Just the Zerg sir? Haven't you heard of the communications from the warships?"

Keaton raised an eyebrow. "What warships? The ones I sent to clean up the place? Of course not. I've wanted peace and quiet, cancelling all reports untill you two came along."

"Well…sir…there have been disturbing reports from them. Being under attack, outgunned and outmanoeuvred by unknown vessels."

"…Explain."

Rufus decided to sum it up. "You allowed the so few warships we have around there go and check, and they got owned by aliens from the tenth dimension who demand that we hand over all of our cute cuddly toys."

Keaton gave him a frown, before Dr Robotnik gave a more proper explanation. "The reports say of the unknown vessels carrying Phasers and photon torpedo technology much like the United Federation of Planets, and they appear to be cube shaped, with heavy shielding, as they were receiving little damage from the fighters. One of the captains sent a message claiming they were the 'Borg' sir."

Keaton went silent, though the expression on his face gave it away what he was thinking…who or what the fuck are the Borg? And by the looks of it, he was expecting Robotnik to have an answer.

Thankfully he did. "I believe I've heard of them before somewhere, within a few obscure records. They're cyborg's, with the intent of making everything around them into a part of their….collective, I believe it's called. If they have UFP type technology, it's safe to say they come from that area of space."

The Grand Commander sat back and put his hands together, placing them just under his chin. "Then why, do you think, are they in our space? I've never heard of them attacking before untill now, and no reports of cube like vessels have come up before."

Rufus easily had a guess. "Invasion. Allies of the UFP. You have pissed them off a fair bit with this war of yours sir. And maybe they already know you'll be pointing all our little battleships back at them, now Darkmega is cleared out the way."

Keaton, for those few times, had to agree with Rufus on that possibility. "Then we need them shoved out of our territory and back into theirs. Robotnik, you and the Master Chief will work on that at once."

Dr Robotnik bowed. "As you command, sir….and sir, we have, other worrying reports…of a large machine-like planet in the GF territory…"

A day later, at 10:30am…

"Right, now Darkmega, I believe everything is in good order. I want you to get up from the table and walk a few steps."

The voice was Dr Light, as he was in the labs of the Hero Base, with Dr Wily, Dr Yuichiro and Dr Regal, all of them watching, as Darkmega had got up from the table, and finally walked again after all this time of repairing.

Dr Wily smiled at this result. "Good, good! I thought some of our repairs wouldn't actually work out, but it appears that we've got you back to what you should be!"

"Perhaps Medi should give him a health check. Afterall we do plan of having him stay here this time round." Dr Light suggested.

Dr Wily nodded in agreement, but Dr Yuichiro wasn't impressed. "Father, Darkmega is still very dangerous. We should keep him in the labs."

"Oh nonsense son! I think he learnt his lesson from what he did last time." Dr Light said, with an approving smile to Darkmega.

"That's what you always said about Wily back in the days of the robot masters invasions!"

Dr Light just shrugged it off. "So Darkmega, I'll take you to the hospital and let Medi check you, then I think we need to get you more used to what's here and where your room will be."

Darkmega gave him a sweet smile. "Gee, really? Thanks doc!"

As soon as Dr Light and Darkmega left the labs, Dr Regal spoke up. "Yuichiro is onto something father. I'm already getting the feeling Darkmega is going to pull a fast one on us."

Dr Wily frowned at his son. "Please, we're in a base, with heroes of across the Galactic Federation. What could he possibly do?"

Dr Regal just stared at him.

Dr Wily soon sighed. "Fine, yes, he could easily cause chaos with this bunch of misfits…"

Meanwhile, in the hospital, Medi was busy tending to Quickman, checking up on his arm after the incident with Richard. Thankfully the restoration of his arm had gone fine, and now after a couple of days, the arm needed to be seen to just to make sure it's working fully. "Well, it seems it's all normal and nothings wrong with it. You'll live sugar."

Quickman got off the medical bed. "Cool. Thanks Medi. Chad is gonna be happy with this. I can get back to ass kicking again!"

Medi smiled at him for his eagerness to get moving. "Yes yes I'm sure he will be. Go on, get going, you're fine."

Quickman soon left, just as Darkmega and Dr Light entered…making the speedy Navi give Dr Light a strange look, before heading into the main room.

Medi looked at Darkmega in confusion, as Dr Light got him to sit down on a medical bed. "Uhhh…Dr Light? Isn't this-"

Dr Light quickly interrupted. "This is Darkmega Medi. I want him to have a health check-up. His going to become a member of this base. I want everything checked and recorded."

Medi looked a little worried, but shook it off. "Of course doctor."

The moment Dr Light left, she turned to Darkmega, smiling sweetly. "Well now, I'm Medi. The Nurse of the Hero Base."

Darkmega smiled at her. "Hello there Medi. I must say, you look wonderful today. Very sexy. I'm Darkmega."

Medi was a taken aback with that response, but, it was nice to have someone say something sweet to her…even if it is a psycho.

Darkmega didn't give a damn with what he was saying though. As Medi begun the check-up, he was planning in his mind…he was going to get the hell out of here, and kill these fools, and that old man that dragged him here. They think he'll just turn into a nice guy? Hah! He gave the message about Unicron now, he could do as he damn well pleases!

He looked to Medi, as she had gently removed his helmet, showing his dark navy blue hair. He was looking right into her eyes, making her blush a little…not just yet though. There was no need to strike untill the right time, and this wasn't it.

Anyway, he needs a few allies…and a medical woman could prove useful…

"So." Medi said, as she had now removed all of his clothing except for a pair of purple boxers he was wearing, and got him to lay down. "How do you feel right now after what happened?"

"Oh, you know, sad, depressed, wish I really didn't do it. I'm just glad I've been given this chance to turn a new leaf…" He looked into her eyes again, just as she was checking his wrist's pulse. "…you have beautiful eyes, ya know that?"

She couldn't help but be flattered. "Well, thank you Darkmega."

Elsewhere in the base, Chad had just got himself out of bed, and was in his bathroom, dressed, and just cleaning his teeth…something told him that things weren't gonna be good today, he just knew it.

He then heard knocking on his door. He washed the toothpaste out of his mouth and dried his mouth on a towel before shouting "Come in! it's unlocked!".

He left his bathroom, and saw that it was Charlie who had knocked and entered. "Oh hey Charlie, what's up?"

"Dr Light sent for me to fetch ya. Something about Darkmega and he needs to have a word with you."

Chad felt it was gonna include either something to do with Darkmega breaking free, or that his not allowed to go near the asshole because of their past experience…He soon departed his room with Charlie and followed him to the main room, where Dr Light was waiting for him.

It took no longer then 20 minutes for Dr Light to explain what he had to say…

Chad has stayed in the main room afterwards, and Anna was now there, with Xiahou Dun, Forte, Serious Sam, Charlie, Quickman and Samus….Chad had decided to tell them what Dr Light wanted him to do.

"YOU WHAT!? ARE YOU FUCKING BULLSHITTING ME!?" was Anna's calm, collected response.

Chad sighed. "It's true Anna. He wants me to keep an eye on Darkmega and help him as much as possible around the base, help him get comfy here. He feels that if something was to happen, I could sort it…if Darkmega attacks someone or they attack him. I tried to explain I hate him but the old bastard wouldn't have none of it!"

Samus shook her head. "Well this is going to end well…"

Quickman felt sorry for his owner. "Chad. If you want to go psycho and kill the old guys, just say and we'll be there to support you all the way."

Chad shook his head. "Thanks but no thanks. I'm just gonna have to suck it up and do what he wants for now. Once Darkmega has had his check-up in the hospital, I've got to escort him to his room and make sure everything is to his liking."

"To his liking? Expect him to ask for a few guns and explosives then. And an army of heartless to his beck and call." Forte said.

Anna shook her head in disbelief, refusing to accept it. "They can't be serious! This is Darkmega! He shoved us off Earth X! what's to stop him from doing it again here on Zebes!?"

Chad replied. "Apparently I will. To the docs point of view."

Meanwhile, at the borderline between the UFP space and GF space, the USS Enterprise was floating there, along with an Excelsior Class vessel called the USS Crazyhorse, and a Nebula Class vessel called the USS Kolto.

After sending the data they had gathered from the incident of the Outpost being destroyed, and the reports from the USS Crazyhorse, which had seen the huge machine a while before it's attack on the station, Captain Picard and his officers were sitting in the Enterprise meeting room, just receiving a report from the admiral of the border fleet. Admiral Forester, an old man with a short white beard, blue eyes and short white hair.

His voice was gentle, yet aged, as he was seen on their view screen in the meeting room, sitting in his office. "After going through what you found, we may have gathered what you and the others saw. In the Galactic Federation archives, the ones we managed to look into before things got bad with them, they knew of an ancient race called the Chozo. Our scientists had gathered plenty of information from their historical records before the alliance broke apart…one of them bears a worrying similarity to what you saw."

Then on their view screen, a digital 3D picture of Unicron appeared. Admiral Forester's voice was heard over it. "The thing is called a 'Unicron'. a monster planet, which, according to the Chozo, can devour anything in its path. It's no doubt the same thing you had encountered, and what had eaten the space station."

There was a sense of concern felt in the meeting room, as Picard looked at his officers for a moment, before looking back at the screen. "Admiral, will it no doubt come back this way?"

"I'm afraid so…Unicron, according to Chozo Lore, is very much sentient, and wishes no more then to feast on every single thing in the universe….if anything, we need to put a stop to it before it does anymore damage."

William Riker spoke up. "Admiral, that could be a problem. A border space station couldn't stop it, and they were more armed then us, and it's now in the Galactic Federation territory."

The 3D look of Unicron vanished, as the admiral's face returned to the screen. "I know that Riker…that's why I'm going to suggest to Starfleet we create a treaty between us, and the Galactic Federation. Hopefully if we work together, we can get enough firepower to stop this thing dead in its tracks. Unicron is a danger to everyone, and needs to be our top priority. Their petty war with us can wait."

Picard thought about this for a moment.. "Admiral, I doubt the Galactic Federation will listen, especially with that Keaton Al'Keriff in command of their fleets."

"I think he will listen, especially since we've also found out some other worrying information from another part of the border…the Borg are on the move."

"The Borg?"

The admiral nodded grimly. "We've had reports of several Borg vessels passing by our borders, and heading into GF territory…matching the directions you gave of where Unicron was heading."

"Do you think they're working with Unicron?"

"It's very possible Jean-Luc. I want the Enterprise to be prepared to enter Galactic Federation space shortly. We'll try to make a treaty, the moment we do Picard, I want you, along with a tactical fleet I'll assign to you, to head into their territory and find the Borg. Your knowledge of them is far more than anyone else…we could use that right now."

Picard nodded. "Understood, we'll be ready."

Then, the view screen switched off, as Picard turned to his officers. Data spoke up. "Sir, if I may suggest, we should prepare the vessel by re-routing power for combat against multiple Borg Cubes."

"Agreed. You and La Forge can get right on it. Everyone, dismissed."

In the void of space, slowly coming into view, was a ruined GF warships, broken in half, bodies slowly floating out of it's shattered hull…four other warships were seen in the same condition, as two Borg Cubes moved past the remains, heading onwards to their destination, Unicron. This had been the Cubes fourth group of GF ships trying to stop them. One of the Cubes did look battered now over the fights, with heavy damage and holes in it. The repairs were slow, but progressing.

Richard was onboard the less damaged vessel, leaning against one of the walls, idly watching the Borg drones go around the Cube. The Zerg were around as well, although they weren't as comfortable with the Borg as he was. They often snarled and hissed at the cyborgs as they passed the creatures, but they took no heed to their vocal threats.

Soon, he heard a voice inside his mind…Unicron. "Richard, I sense that you have collected our allies, and met those I had found on the way."

Richard nodded. And seemed to speak to himself, to the Borg and Zerg's view. "Yep. So now we got some help, what's the next job?"

"Once the Borg have returned you to me, I wish for you to stay within my body…I believe now, with the Zerg at your side, you are in need of some, training…and we need to speak of the Borg themselves.."

Richard nodded once again, understanding the message. The Borg cubes continued to fly on, in the vastness of space, before them, yet another few GF warships…another pointless battle.

Medi had finished checking Darkmega over, and allowed him to get dressed, smiling at him as he was. "So, Darkmega. I take it you actually plan to stay for quite some time hm?"

Darkmega finally got his helmet back on and nodded. "Of course sweet thing. For a very long time."

Medi was really starting to like this guy now, blushing a little once again at the "sweet thing". She has received comments before, from the likes of Xiahou Dun, Ken, and even Sam, but Darkmega's felt, genuine, not just because she healed them up from getting their asses handed to them by the others.

"Well Darkmega, it's safe to say your perfectly fine on the outside and it seems your vital parts are working. I'll put everything down in the data files about you, and make you an official member of the base. Later on sometime I would like to do an internal scan of your mainframe, as you're a Navi and all, it's a normal procedure."

"Alright then."

"Now if you head on to the main room, someone should be there, ready to show you around and take you to your room." Medi then turned away, and walked to the computer of the hospital, sitting down at it.

Darkmega smirked and said to her, before leaving. "I hope you're the sort of nurse that does house calls, because if I need anyone to check me, I would love it to be you."

As he left, Medi could safely confirm to herself she had someone else to like a lot now…

It was the moment Darkmega stepped out of the hospital, he found himself face to face with Chad, who was frowning a fair bit. "….annddd what's your problem right now Chaddy boy?"

Other then Chad in the main room, there was Liu Bei, Ryu and Mr T. Liu Bei was discussing with Ryu about a hologram program, which by the sounds of it, involved one of the battles on Earth V, and Mr T was busy using a computer to look for something…well was, untill he saw Darkmega and watched quietly, as did Liu Bei and Ryu.

Chad raised his hand, and in it, was a keycard, which he, in a rather brunt manner, gave to Darkmega. "The key to your room. follow me." He soon started walking off, with Darkmega following, knowing what was going on.

"Oh I see, so from the person that hates my guts to my little guide hm? Oh haven't you got the best luck in the world Chad!"

"Shut up before I royally kick your ass again."

Darkmega was smiling evilly, all the way to his room, in corridor 5, room 9. Chad and him Stopped outside, and Chad turned towards him and then gave him a Com-Link, just like he did with the Keycard. "Alright you, I'll give you a brief explanation. Hologram rooms are in Corridor 20. All 4 halls there. Corridor 21 holds two meeting rooms, and two training rooms. Food hall is in Corridor 22, and there as well is Ridley's Bar so you can get stone drunk and leave us the fuck alone passed out on the floor. In your room is a bathroom, your bedroom, with your own computer, cupboard and drawers. The Com-Links in the base have trackers installed in them and Dr Light has given me permission to track where you are I so can watch. I'm also to watch over you and…help you, 'interact' with people here in my spare time as much as possible. That's all you need to know."

Darkmega looked at him false sadness. "Aww, but Chad, I need to know which room you're in, incase I get scared by my lonely self…"

"Fuck off and get in that room." And with that, Chad stormed off.

Darkmega laughed a little at Chad's reaction, and used his Keycard to get in his room…it was basic and simple, but it would do for now. The first thing to do was to lock the door and just relax on that bed, then maybe get Chad to take him to Ridley's Bar…afterall, they let him in with open arms, the best thing would be to make those not so easily relaxed let down their guard, get to think his really turned a new leaf.

He chucked the Com-Link on the metal Side drawer next to his bed, and locked the door, before laying down on the bed itself, which had a purple cover to match his suit, and two white fluffy pillows. It was rather comfy, he had to admit, they've improved on the bedding since the Earth base..

Night time soon came, and inside the labs at 11pm, was Dr Yuichiro, and his was sitting down at the lab computer, staring at it's screen, which had a message on it…unsure if he should send it…

Yuichiro was afraid of it all happening again, it kept running through his mind all afternoon and evening…he was frightened for his wife Hakura and his sons Lan and Hub, he knows that Darkmega would, no doubt, target them like the rest. And as for the rest, they surely wouldn't be able to stop Darkmega. As Dr Wily said, they are a band of misfits, to a degree…that was something he normally wouldn't agree with, but this one time, he had to.

On the other hand, maybe Darkmega is really turning over a new leaf, and his just panicking over nothing at all. Maybe things will finally settle down, and perhaps they can all return to Earth X, keeping this as a base for emergencies or something.

He weighed both possible things in his mind, and it decided pretty quickly itself on the right answer.

He decided to send the message, which was to the only person he felt could help them right now, Dr Ivo Robotnik.

It read.

'To: Doctor Ivo Robotnik.

From: Doctor Y. Light

Robotnik,

I need you help me. It appears that the incident with Darkmega has made my Father and Dr Wily none the wiser. Darkmega was defeated no more then a few days ago, and now after finding him battered to almost deletion, they have repaired him completely.

Not only that, they have welcomed him into the base with open arms. I had spoken to my father earlier this evening, but he felt things would be perfectly fine. I cannot follow the same feeling as he does.

I don't know what to do. Perhaps you could ask the Grand Commander Keaton Al'Keriff to do something, perhaps take Darkmega somewhere more secure, or even, against my fathers wishes, destroy him. It would make many people here feel more relaxed then what they are at the moment.

I hope you can help somehow.

-Dr Y. Light.'

In Midgar, Dr Robotnik was sitting at his desk, three floors down from the office of Keaton, looking into plans for an effective way to deal with the Borg, from the little information he had from the UFP database before the alliance was terminated.

After telling Keaton of the possible giant planet and even suggesting it could be the legendary Unicron, Keaton dismissed it and simply said that without actual proof of the machine existing from these reports, they could easily be mistaken for sensor glitches.

Rufus had pointed out the very thing Robotnik was thinking as they both left his office. "Since when did sensor glitches include huge machine planets?"

Dr Robotnik pushed his wheelie chair backwards a little and looked outside his office for a moment, and saw Master Chief, Busy speaking with Cortana by the looks of it, who had been checking the reports and any new data from the battleships that had clashed, and been destroyed, by the Borg, to see if there was any weakness noted…none came up so far.

Cortana had her own PET device. A PET, short for Personal Terminal, was shaped like a Gameboy Advance, is the device that is used to carry an owned Net Navi. Whenever they wish to use it, as the case is nowadays. It has the buttons and control pad on the left side, Navi's crest symbol on the right, and the screen displaying Net Navi via on the actual screen or a small holographic display above the screen, in the middle. On the right side of the device was a slot-in point for battlechips, and at the left side was a data chip slot-in point.

Although the Navi's of today can use battlechips by themselves, they do gain an increase in power to the chips (and less energy from the Navi's) if they're inserted into the PET, rather than directly to the Navi. The PET gives the chips an extra kick, which could decide between victory and defeat, and turn the tide easily to the Navi that has his/her OP ready with the PET in their favor. Her PET was a Dark Blue colour, with no symbol on it and no slot in point for battlechips.

Robotnik pushed himself back to his desk, only to see that a message had arrived for him. He opened it, and read it carefully…

He was certainly surprised, as he rolled his chair backwards again, and called out for the Chief to come here and have a look. He quickly came over and looked at the message with Dr Robotnik.

Cortana appeared in her hologram form on her PET screen, looking at the message as well. "Well, seems like they're getting themselves into trouble again."

"At least they've decided to ask us for help. Seems like Dr Yuichiro wants Dark Megaman dealt with as quick as possible." Master Chief replied.

Robotnik thought this over for a moment, before responding. "Hmm, if we inform Keaton, no doubt he'll go to the extreme and actually send an entire force there to arrest not only Dark Megaman, but everyone. He'll easily use this as an excuse to slam them all in jail, for attempting to 'create a high level danger to the peace of the Galactic Federation.'"

Cortana looked at him. "Your right, that's what the bastard would do if he got wind of this. Maybe we can inform the High Ministers directly, and suggest to them not to tell Keaton, because his busy with other affairs."

"Or perhaps we should just tell him."

Dr Robotnik knew the voice, and looked outside his office, with Master Chief, to see Rufus standing there, looking at them, and walking in.

Master Chief was the first one to respond to what he said. "Rufus?"

"Let's tell Keaton, get him worked up over these people once again. Why should it matter to us? It only means he'll leave us alone again, no doubt wanting to be there for the big moment."

Cortana raised an eyebrow at him, noticing a hint of a plan in his voice. "…Why would you want Keaton to leave? If he does capture all of them, he'll be boasting about it for days on end."

"Because, my dear, if he leaves, Robotnik and I can continue on our own plans without him breathing down our necks all day long and watching what we're doing on the machines."

Robotnik quickly hissed "Rufus!"

Master Chief looked at Dr Robotnik, then at Rufus, and quickly added two and two together. "Your both not loyal to him at all, are you?"

Rufus turned and looked at Master Chief. "People grow tired of him Chief. His days are numbered. While you and Cortana were flying around with him, we had been gathering reports…and sending messages out to the commanders that we know are tired of him, telling them of our plans. We're close to a time of change in this empire. People shouldn't follow fools that simply pay out the checks and makes everything quiet to the universe, and use a puppet. To fight a wasteful war with two potential forces that we could easily use. The people need a real leader."

Cortana shook her head. "And, you see yourself as that leader, am I right? The High Ministers wouldn't agree to that. They would rather-"

"They, will be dead, miss Cortana."

There was silence for a moment, before Master Chief spoke up. " Why have you told us this? We could easily inform Keaton of your ideas."

"Because I know you're tired of him as much as we are. I know he sees you as a lowly solider, and Cortana as data formed into a woman, nothing more. He doesn't care for his officers or those close to him." Rufus looked to the computer screen. "You can join us, or go and tell him about all this. I will not bribe you. I know your potential, and what you can do for everyone."

Master Chief went silent, and looked at Cortana…

The choice for them both was perfectly clear.

Cortana turned and looked at the computer screen. "So, do you think Keaton will be awake right now to find out about Dark Megaman being alive again? Or should be disturb his beauty sleep?"

Chad yawned, as he was woken up by the sound of, what he thought he heard, was someone knocking on his door, his hair all scruffy, and turned his head to look at the clock on his room's wall…it was 8:15 in the morning. He was looking around for a window at one moment, like he always did, only to remember, they were underground…no daylight, only the light that he had left on all night as he dozed off.

He got himself up, went to the bathroom and sorted himself out, before going to his cupboard and getting a usual set of clothing. Red shirt, black jacket, jeans…the norm for him. Like a lot of heroes, they preferred to keep wearing their normal attire rather than change it, so copies of their clothing is supplied by the docs. All dirty laundry was sent via teleport to the washrooms in corridor 23. You had to place it in the small basket left in the corner of the room, and it had a device on top of it which alerted the network for instant teleport once the lid was closed again. The washroom was manned by robots, created by Dr Light for the job, which would then teleport the clothing back to their rooms once done, on the bed, for the person to hang up again.

Chad sighed as he forgot to tell Darkmega about this, but he didn't mind…hell, in his opinion, his hoping Darkmega won't be around that long to use it.

He heard a knock on his door, knowing this time someone was there, and went over to open it. Charlie was standing there, with Darkmega….lovely way to start the day, Chad thought to himself.

Charlie smiled a little and waved at him. "Hey kid. Someone's not allowed to go to the Food Hall alone yet, ordered by the docs."

Darkmega now smiled at him.

"Oh goody." Chad mumbled. He then set off with Charlie and Darkmega to the Food Hall. At least he didn't have to walk with the bastard by himself, Charlie was willing enough to go with them.

They soon entered, and noticed everyone else was already there. Chad and the other two went up to the kitchen area, which was again, manned by robot Dr Light created. All robots that help in the base are made by him…Dr Wily was more then willing to help, but after all the incidents, Thomas's trust in Albert's 'Super Pwnage' Programming skills wasn't so high as it used to be.

Soon after Chad had to explain that he could pretty much have anything he wanted as long as it was in stock, he got himself a bacon sandwich, while Darkmega got himself a cooked breakfast, with egg, bacon, sausages, fried bread, baked beans and mushrooms. Charlie had pretty much the same thing, just with four slices of bacon instead of one.

They found a table where Anna, Mr T, Zhang He, Quickman and Zhang Liao were at, and sat down with them, with Chad sitting next to Mr T, and having Darkmega next to him, with Anna smiling at Chad from the other side of the round table…and giving Darkmega a horrible glare.

Mr T was chomping down his full on breakfast when he looked to Chad and said "sup' Chad? You lookin' a little down."

"Hey T. I'm good, just looking after our…new friend, here."

Darkmega smiled and waved at Mr T, who wasn't one to not speak his mind. "I don't trust that sucka for nothing. Why the hell is he here?"

Anna answered that, as Chad had started to eat. "It's because we don't have much of a choice T."

"Oh we got a choice alright, we can kick his ass and chuck him outta here!"

Darkmega looked offended a little. "Oh now come Mr T! I haven't said anything against you and yet you're so hostile to me! I'm shocked! I've different from before, I've turned over a new leaf!"

Mr T grumbled, before going back to his food. "Yeah right, a pity da foo' who believes that shit.."

They all just ate in silence from there…well untill Zhang He spoke. "Ugh! Charlie, how could you eat that!? That will ruin your beautiful toned body, with all that greasy food and fattening meat!"

Charlie just stared at him, with a mouthful of bacon, which a little bit of it was sticking out of his mouth, making Zhang He looked away in disgust, untill he ate and swallowed it. "..wait, what was that about my body?"

"Your wonderful body! Those toned chest muscles! Why do you try to ruin such beauty?"

"…Zhang He, this food isn't nothing to me…and leave my body alone."

Chad looked at Anna as this was happening. "….Seriously? This guy as a good friend to you?"

Anna shrugged. "His fine for me Chad. At least his effective with those claws of his."

Zhang He smiled at her, and noticed Charlie was listening, and looked at him. "And that's not all I'm effective with…I'm quite effective with certain 'skills' in the bedroom…"

Charlie stared at him for a moment, grabbed his plate, got up, and went to find another table. Quickman and Zhang Liao had quickly done the same thing, Quickman going over to where Megaman was sitting, and Zhang Liao going over to where his lord Cao Cao was, who was currently having a heated discussion with Sun Jian, by the sounds of the insults going around.

It was now 13:53...and Keaton was happy.

He was brimming, sitting at his desk, reading the letter over and over, with Master Chief, Dr Robotnik and Rufus waiting there. There as well, was a cyborg, who Keaton had called up this morning to come to Gaia VII A.S.A.P.

His name, was Grievous, General Grievous. Famous for once bringing many victories to CSI, then defecting to the GF to serve them for greater pay, and even greater glory, as he had quickly gained the respect and fame he felt he rightfully deserved, matching to his unbelievable skill with weaponry and his agile attacks. He even created one of the greatest units in the history of the GF, the unit called 'Unit 666; The Devil's Pride'.

Formed in 2027 A.P, a simple band of 25 people with special skills and gifts, They struck fear into all rebels and enemies to the Galactic Federation, crushing them all down, and nearly bringing a reign of peace, for a time, untill 2034 A.P, when Grievous disbanded the Unit, after 12 of it's members had mysteriously vanished, and felt a disconnection with the other members…for a time he also retired in that year, but soon returned in 2040 A.P when Keaton needed him to assist the attacks on the Galactic Empire, scoring victories in several dozen skirmishes.

He stood there, knowing he was called in for a reason.

Soon Keaton looked up at them all. "So, the heroes have decided to assist in repairing a danger to this empire, hm?"

Dr Robotnik nodded. "Yes sir."

"And it seems Dr Yuichiro Light wants us to do something about it."

Master Chief replied. "Yes sir."

Keaton really gave a smile, and with an overjoyed tone, as if he finally got something his always wanted, he said "And we will…gentlemen, today is the day I declare that all of these 'heroes' are to be arrested for actions against the Galactic Federation. For bringing back a potential threat."

Rufus sighed out of boredom. "Grand Commander, you can't just go around and declare things like that, especially when we have a High Minister in that very base. You can't arrest him."

"No, that's true, but he can come back with them anyway. I'll argue the case to the other High Ministers once I return with them. Ha, the fools didn't like it when Dark Megaman went rampant before, I doubt they'll listen to their colleague if he tries to defend them." He stood up. "I going to assemble several squads of troopers and to go to that planet at once. Grievous. You're coming with me, and so are you Master Chief. Your previous duty with the Borg is now forgotten, this is your top priority."

Master Chief nodded. "Yes Grand Commander."

"Rufus, Dr Robotnik. You handle the affairs with the Borg." Keaton soon marched out of the office as quick as possible, with Grievous and Master Chief following right behind.

Within a mere few hours, Keaton was onboard his flagship once again, as it begun to head into space, alone. On the bridge, stood Keaton, with his arms crossed, smiling, to his right, Master Chief, with Cortana in her hologram form coming out of the small panel near him, and to his left, general Grievous, staring into the deep void of space, waiting like his commander.

Keaton laughed a little, and said to himself. "Finally, a reason to lock you rogue bastards up…soon you'll be in my hands…Master Chief, has that data girl got the coordinates ready for Light speed?"

Master Chief looked at Cortana, who nodded at him…just only a matter of time to put up with him. "Yes sir. We're ready."
