Third Mission Part I

"Hey, where's Axl-R," Jen asked, walking into the main living room for another mission meeting.

"He's still in his room," Zero said. "He still can't come to terms with the fact that his future biometal body is a female."

"Same with Model A," Grey said. "She wouldn't even come to this meeting."

"Looks like Grey and I are gonna be useless for this mission," Ashe said. "Sorry."

"That's fine," Max said. "Now then, the next mission is going to be to a forest. It's one of Sigma's subordinates."

"Who is it," X asked. "Someone we might know?"

"Depends. Are you familiar with a reploid named Cameo?"

"Who?"

"Yeah, I didn't think so. Anyways, on to the details. Cameo is a stealth expert, complete with a camouflage system built into his armor. His main weapon is a large shuriken, as well as an energy pistol."

"Ok. So, who's going," Kyuubi asked.

"Well, since Model A and Axl are both still sulking in their rooms," Max said, "X and Zero will be coming, as well as Geo and Omega-xis and Will. All of you, suit up and get ready for teleportation."

"Yes sir," they all said.

***

"Alright boys, are you ready," Alia asked.

"Of course," X said, smiling at his girl.

"Then get ready for teleportation in three…two…one," Layer said. "Teleporting."

"Teleportation was successful," Palette said.

***

X, Zero, and Geo looked around the forest. Zero whistled, saying, "Big trees. Very big, very heavy trees. Quick question?"

"Yeah," Will said, forming his G Blade.

"What would happen if one of these were to fall on us?"

"Well, first off, someone would have to be able to cut one and that's nigh impossible. Second, you'd be squashed flatter than a sheet of paper."

"Ah. That makes me feel so much safer now."

"Hey, you asked, not me."

"Hey, how are we supposed to get through this," Geo asked.

"I've got just the thing," Max said. "You all might wanna stand back a few feet." Everyone took a step back, watching to see what he would do. "Battle Card Predation, Cannon. Battle Card Predation, Double Fire Ring. EM Advance: Blazing Roller." The cannon grew to resemble a gun with a vertical slit that then separated into three more. They all heard a high pitched whining sound, like that of a machine turning on, come from the newly formed weapon. The three slits began to glow red and heat began to emanate off of them. Three large rings wrapped in flame fired, one from each slit and extended to the side to connect with each other, now making a large cylinder of flame that went out in front of Max, burning vegetation, but the fire didn't spread.

"Wow," Geo said. "What was that?"

"A battle card version of a program advance," Max answered. "I get bored sometimes and mess around with battle card and battlechip combinations. That one was one of the first I ever discovered."

"Nice. You gotta teach me some of those….EM advances, right?"

"Yeah. When we get back, I'll show you some basic ones. Now then, let's get walking. I burned enough vegetation to get us through most of the forest. The rest we go through will have to stay up if I don't want to screw up the balance in this forest. Come on, we've got a ways to go."

"Right. Let's get going," Will said, making his way through the new path made by Max's attack.

"Alright. So, anyone know some good riddles," Zero asked as they began their small trek.

***

"RUN YOU IDIOTS," Max yelled. "RUN LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDED ON IT!"

The reason they were all running was because they currently had a pack of wolves and a pack of coyotes chasing them. "You just had to do it, didn't you," Will said to Omega-xis, who was currently flying beside them all.

"Hey, how was I sposed to know that they could understand English," Omega-xis said defensively.

"When we get out of this, I am so getting Lyra on you," Geo threatened.

"Yeah yeah. Shit. We got a problem. I think they're gaining." They all looked behind them to see that the animals were indeed gaining on them. "RUN FASTER!"

***

They had finally lost the two packs half an hour later and were currently breathing heavily from such a long run. "Omega-xis, if you ever do something like that again, I'm going to tell Naruto and Shinobi that you made fun of their height. There won't be a place in this zone or any other you'll be able to find to hide from those two," Max said, looking at Omega-xis. As far as looks go, if they could kill, Omega-xis would have been killed three times over.

"You wouldn't," Omega-xis said.

"Try me."

"Fine. I promise to never do that again on purpose."

"I suppose that'll do. Now then, we need to go on." Max turned to continue, but was then stopped by a growling sound. "Please tell me those wolves and coyotes aren't after us again."

"Nope," Zero said. "I think that was Will's stomach." They all looked at Will, who was about to unwrap a candy bar.

He stopped and looked back at them. "Ok, I'm hungry. Sue me," he said, going back to his candy bar.

"Eh, I say we all stop for lunch," Max said.

"Yeah. I'm kinda hungry myself," Geo said, sitting down.

***

"Alright, we ready to get going again," Max asked.

"Yeah. Let's go," X said, standing back up. "Any idea how much farther till we get to Cameo?"

"My guess is about twenty minutes if we walk and don't run into any trouble," Will said.

"What kind of trouble?"

"I dunno. Large robots and some viruses, maybe. But that's probably a worst-case scenario."

"Oh. We can handle this then."

"Wait, what?"

"Look around." Everyone else looked around to see that they had been surrounded by large robots, all of them with an axe, as well as Great Axe EM viruses. "So, how do we do this?"

"I say attack what you can," Max said. "Battle Card Predation, Longsword."

"Right then. Z Saber," Zero said, drawing his weapon.

"X Buster," X said, his right arm turning into his main weapon.

"Battle Card Predation, Big Axe," Geo said.

"Alright guys, let's tear it up," Will said, holding his G Blade at the ready.
