Chapter 2: The Anti-EM Wave Changing Movement.
The robots examined the wounded young man at their feet, as the needles slid out of his skin and back into their guns by some magnetic force. A woman with violet hair and soulless yellow eyes watched them nearby. "Put the restraints on him and I'll handle his Wizard." she ordered. In a few seconds, glowing cuffs were around the man's wrists and the woman walked over to his Wizard, aiming her Hunter Star at him.
Laplace glared at the woman as she downloaded him onto her device and then turned him off, like she did to Mega, Lyra, and the two Cyber-Elves Pan and Probie. She then looked at the man whose limp and bloody body was still laying on the ground powerless. She immediately spat at him. "Solo, last Murian alive!" she mocked, "Not so great and powerful now, are we?"
The robots picked up Solo and loaded him into a capsule filled with a blue liquid. The capsule was then taken into a large truck, which contained more capsules with other people sealed inside them. The woman pulled out her Hunter Star and spoke into it, "Any others?" One of the robots on the other side of the transmission replied, "Negative. But there is a frequency in the electromagnetic world indicating a faint presence."
"It's probably that X-Calibur character. One of the few EM Wave humans to not register with the Satella Police. It's a shame he didn't, it would make bagging and tagging him a lot easier. Investigate that frequency further."
"Affirmative."
She ended the call. "Alright! Let's finish up here!" she yelled to the other robots. She took one last glance at the people contained in the capsules. Besides Solo, Geo and Sonia's pale bodies floated limply in their respective capsules, holding on to what shred of life they had left, while Pat, Miss Tia, and Jack were contained in the other capsules. The woman examined the list on her Hunter Star:
Acid Ace: Location Unknown.
Rogue: Captured.
MegaMan: Terminated.
HarpNote: Terminated.
Taurus Fire: Location Unknown.
MegaGirl: Believed to be Terminated.
Magnetron: Believed to be Terminated.
Cygnus Wing: Terminated.
Pandora: Captured.
Prometheus: Captured.
Wolf Woods: Location Unknown.
Gemini Spark: Captured.
The list went on and on... The woman smiled wickedly. Oblivion's anti-EM Wave Changing movement was going along just splendid. "When society is scared, they'll turn to anyone..." she started, "...And turn over anyone."
Somewhere else...
Arthur watched the scene unfold from atop a still intact building. "They're going to torture Solo, Patrick, Miss Tia, and Jack..." he grimaced, his yellow eyes holding a sad gleam, "And when they're done, they'll rip them apart..." The silvery horse-like Calibur suddenly appeared by his master's side. "Arthur, we must leave here quickly, or we shall suffer the same fate." he said bluntly, his golden waves being blown by the wind.
"But... can't we do something to help them?"
"Arthur, the glory days of X-Calibur are no more. We are not feared by Oblivion. We are not as strong as many once thought. Attempting a rescue is suicide. There will be a time to fight, but not here."
Arthur looked back at the truck, then to Calibur. "You're right. I guess all we can do is ride out this storm..." he said sadly. "The Oblivion robots are beginning an EM scan," Calibur started, "We must flee to the Wave Road." Arthur nodded, ran to the other end of the building, jumped off and cried, "EM Wave Change! Arthur Xavier On The Air!" He then grabbed Calibur and they merged, forming the silver and gold knight, X-Calibur.
X-Calibur hit the ground with a painful aftershock, but not nearly as painful if he were in human form. He readied his X-Blade and ran right as Oblivion robots discovered him and gave chase. He then beamed himself into the Wave Road, leaving the robots in the dust. He looked at them from the Wave Road, aware there were Predators that could fire upon him if he didn't move. So he blasted away at the speed of light, his heart bleeding for the ones he was leaving behind.
Meanwhile...
I stared at the TV in horror, and noticed Megan and Magneto were frightened as well. None of us could believe what the reporter dared to say: "After the mindless rampage of MegaGirl, the anti-EM Wave Changing group known as Oblivion is urging all good citizens to turn over any person who can EM Wave Change. They are also urging the government to pass a law banning all forms of EM Wave Changing."
It took all my power not to scream and lash out at something, thus opening my stitches. Dr. Light noticed my distress and asked, "Are you worried they'll come for you?" I looked at him and said, "I'm worried you'll turn me in. I am the one who went on the 'mindless rampage', after all."
"You don't come across as a bad person to me, lass."
I ignored him and looked at the TV, sanity leaving me. "Oblivion wants to lock up anyone who can EM Wave Change!" I screamed to high Heaven, "All because of me! I'm such a monster!" Dr. Light then slapped me, "Lass, don't ever talk like that again. You have no idea how powerful your words really are."
Once I regained my focus, I noticed the bandages around my arms turning red. "Now look at what you went and did!" Dr. Light cried, unwrapping one bandage to restitch the wound. Ignoring the slight pain, I saw on the news that Dr. Eclipse's body was found and that he would be cremated, according to his wishes in his will. I noticed Magneto's head had lowered, and Megan was trying to comfort him.
All. Because. Of. Me.
Somewhere, at Echo Ridge...
Zack eyed Luna with pity, as she cried until her eyes went dry. He held her handkerchief in front of her, "Luna, please. Stop crying." Luna looked up at him, "They took Pat! And you expect me to not be upset?"
"I understand Luna. But sitting here crying the day away isn't going to do him any good."
Luna held back her tears and said, "You're right..." Zack gave a slight smile, but it faded quickly. "Luna, you need to get out of here quickly," he began, "Oblivion will come for you, and Pat's sacrifice will be in vain..." Luna's eyes grew wide and she immediately pulled out her Hunter Star, yelling, "Wizard On!" Ophiuca appeared and looked at the humans worriedly.
All of a sudden, the door was kicked and knocked down. The woman and her robots barged in. "Luna Platz, you and your Wizard Ophiuca are coming with us!" she yelled forcefully. Luna inhaled deeply and ran to Ophiuca. "Transcode! Queen...! AGH!" she cried, as two needles pierced both of her shoulders. She fell to her knees in front of the snake-like FM-ian, who looked like she was on the brink of hysteria.
"No!" Zack cried, running to Luna's side, only to be knocked into the wall by a robot. He fell to the floor and wasn't able to move. He could only watch helplessly as his friends fought with the Oblivion officer and her robots. "STOP IT!" he screamed, but to no avail.
Ophiuca pulled out her flute and started playing, summoning some snakes. Before they could reach the woman, they were blasted into goo by the robots. The woman walked up to her, as she frantically tried to summon more snakes. "Don't even think about it, you abomination." the woman said sharply, pulling Ophiuca into her Hunter Star and turning her off.
The woman turned to the robots, who had put the restraints on Luna and were proceeding to carry her out of the condo. The woman grinned coldly, then looked at Zack. "You're lucky I'm in a good mood, or I would've had you arrested for assisting her and her alien friend." she said bluntly, walking out of the building with the robots.
Zack laid there in shock. One of his best friends since his childhood was taken away from him within the blink of an eye.
And he could do nothing about it.
Note: There's Chapter 2. I don't think this captured the same emotion the first one did, but this wasn't centered around Miley. Also, did anyone catch the point I tried to emphasize with the EM Wave human registration? Also, for anyone curious about the robots... They are equipped with numerous EM Wave technology, but as their bodies are made of metallic materials, they cannot enter the Wave Road. So, in a sense, they're a hybrid of robotic and EM Wave technologies... And the Predators... They are simply aerial fighters, controlled by Artificial Intelligence, capable of reducing their victims to a...very bloody mess. O.O
