Hey guys and gals! Welcome back to part 3 of the 4 part Ryusei Dimension Rockman finale and this chapter will be more of a breather chapter.
That's right I decided to focus more on character development in this chapter.
So with that said, let's do this!
Disclaimer: I don't own anything except my OC's
Opening: Be somewhere from Megaman exe stream
Dreamscape
Third person P.O.V.
"Mom! Dad!" Ryu cried, as he ran through a dark shadowy place as he looked around.
"Neptune…Nepgear…" he cried, as he began slowing down before looking down "Any body…".
He then noticed a bright light in the distance, Ryu smiled as he began running towards the light.
But when he did, he froze.
What he saw was all of the goddesses, candidates, Lyra Note and Breakman were down on the ground all dead.
What shocked them the most was that the one who had killed them all…was Rockman.
"W-What…" Ryu said, shocked as Rockman turned to him before dashing towards him.
"Aaaaahhhh!" He screamed, covering his face when suddenly his chest began Shinning brightly which knocked Rockman back.
"Huh?" He gasped, looking at the light coming from his pendant.
"Find it…" he heard, surprising and confusing Ryu "Find it? Find what".
"…Find… the… starforce…"
"Star…force?" He repeated, before he was engulfed by the bright light.
Bascilicom Hospital
Ryu P.O.V.
"U-Ugh" I groaned, as I slowly opened my eyes and blinked a few times. I looked around a bit and noticed that I was in a hospital bed and my whole body was covered in bandages.
"What… happened…what was that dream?" I blinked, trying to move only to find that the bandages around my body were to tight for me to move.
"Ugh… guess I won't be moving any time soon…".
"How long have I been out for…?" I said, looking over to the window and noticed that it was still dark outside so either it was night out, or there was a bad storm.
'What was up with that dream… it felt so real… but who were those voices… and what is the starforce?' I thought.
After a few minutes I finally got the strength to get back up, but everything was still sore and I had trouble moving "Wish someone could help me out…".
As if on que, the door opened up making me look over to see Uncle Aaron walking in.
"Huh Ah! Ryu" he said, running up to the me before helping me back down on to the couch "Don't start moving, you just got up".
"Okay… what happened? Why am I in the hospital, are Neptune and the others okay?" I asked, confused as he frowned.
"…Well you see…".
Flashback
Third person P.O.V.
We see a car driving up into zune district through the ground that only appeared in low tide.
"Are you sure this is the way there going!" Aaron asked, as he tried to drive while the car was bumping and shaking due to the rocks.
"Yes, this is the place where his Transer was detected" Nepgear said, as she and IF sat in the back of the car
"Why would Tom be leading Ryu to Zune district?" He asked, as IF looked down and considered things.
"It's probably a trap, which means Nep and the others could be in trouble" IF said, as Nepgear looked down.
"Oh no…big sis!" She gasped, noticing the purple prism in the distance.
"That doesn't look good" Aaron said, as he accelerated but then.
There was a giant white explosion that was moving towards them making the car stop.
Everyone instinctively blocked their eyes from the brightness of the light as it passed by them.
"What was that?" IF said, shaking her head as all of them walked into the car.
"Huh? What in the world?!" Aaron said, looking up at the sky confusing the other.
"What is it?" IF asked, as her and Nepgear looked up as well only for their eyes to widen as well "what are those…".
"T-That's the wave road!" Nepgear gasped, remembering when showed her the roads.
The entire sky had the visible roads of the em world now visible to the human eye.
"That's the wave road?" Aaron gasped, as they all looked up at the wave world.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA! IT WORKED!" They heard, running over to see what was going on.
The four goddesses were trapped in a purple prism, Ryu had fallen unconscious with Oemga-xis next to him, Cygnus and Arfoire were next to each other with Breakman behind them
"Explain, what's happening" Arfoire asked, with a raised eyebrow as Cygnus smirked.
"You see it'd take too long to drain the share energy from the goddesses, but then I thought Omega-xis must have absorbed a lot of share energy whenever he would become Rockman".
"What!" Omega-xis said, confused.
"I get it, and when the boy forced the alien off of him it released share energy" she said, as Cygnus smirked "Allowing all the EM beings and viruses to materialise".
"And now…" he said, walking down towards the boy.
"Get away!" Omega-xis said, dashing towards them but Arfoire used her magic to freeze the EM being in place "G-Gah!".
"Do it" Arfoire said, looking over.
Cygnus then picked up Ryu and was about to finish him off but then a pincer stabbed into Cygnus's body causing him to drop Ryu.
"W-What!" He said, looking over to see Breakman attack him.
"Yeah sorry, but my host would be pretty bummed out if his one friend died" he said, as the poison he sent into cygnus's body caused him to separate from his host.
"You would betray us as well! I should've known but…" Cygnus said, pressing a button but nothing happened "What!".
"Sorry but that little light show may have broken the little shock collar" he said, ripping it off before crushing it.
Arfoire was about o attack but Breakman blasted the ground beneath her making a dust cloud.
He then picked up Ryu and Tom's bodies he then looked around before noticing IF, Aaron and Nepgear in the distance.
"Omega-xis! Follow me" he said, as Omega-xis shook his head and nodded
"Right" he smirked, as the two dashed towards the others.
"Ah!" They said, as Breakman looked at them "Heya, no time for introductions right now but we've gotta go" he said, quickly as they were followed by a bunch of viruses.
The others nodded as they all got into Aaron's car and began driving off with Breakman and Omega-xis blasting at any virus that got close.
Flashback end
"After that, we brought you back and Omega-xis explained everything" Aaron said "You've been through a lot for the past few months".
I slowly nodded, before looking back up "What about Mr Dubias? Is he okay" I asked, making Aaron smile "Don't worry, he's in the hospital resting right now",
"Thank goodness" I sighed, in relief before looking down "…Are the others still here?" I asked, as Aaron nodded.
"Yeah, they're right outside want me to get them?" He asked, as I slowly nodded.
After a few minutes all four candidates as well as Jack walked into the room and sat down in front of me.
"So…you guys heard…?" I asked, looking at Uni, Rom and Ram who all nodded.
"Yeah we totally know! Who woulda thought a dummy like you would actually be an awesome super hero!" Ram said, with a smile as Rom nodded "Yeah, you're so cool" she said, not as loud as her twin.
This made a smile smile grow on my face "Thanks…".
"But why didn't you tell anyone?" Uni asked, as I looked down.
"I-I don't know I guess just didn't know you guys enough at the time… that I didn't feel like I would trust you guys enough to tell you" I said.
I then looked down and remembered what I found out back in zune district.
"…Where's Omega-xis" I asked, as Nepgear gulped "I-I think, he's on the balcony"
Ryu then stood up and picked up my visualisers "I…need to talk to him".
"Ryu… you don't wanna do this" Jack said, knowing what I wanted to talk to him about.
"Yeah… but I need to know" I said, walking out of the room while the others decided to follow me.
Balcony
Third person P.O.V.
We see Ryu walking through the door to the balcony. He had his visualisers on as he walked towards Omega-xis who was looking down at the city.
"You don't need the Visualizer to see me right now, kid," Omega-Xis said, not bothering to turn around "That little light show that happened when you ripped me off sent a wave of light that covered the planet, so now the wave road is visible".
Ryu blinked and pulled his visualise down off of his face, he blinked when he saw to his surprise that Omega-Xis, along with the Wave Road above them, was still visible.
Ryu then took a deep breath as his expression turned serious "We have to talk, Omega-Xis."
Omega-Xis sighed as he turned around, "It's about the space station, isn't it?"
"I wanna know, for real this time," Ryu said. "Is it true that you were the one who led the other FM-Ian's in the attack on the space station? Did you really do it?"
Yeah, it's true. I was the one who started it," he slowly nodded, deciding not to hide the answer.
"What?" Ryu asked again, almost as if he was hoping it wasn't true,
"I was the captain of the attack squad," Omega-Xis explained. "If you hate me for that… Iwon't complain but..." "But what!?" Ryu yelled, interrupting him.
Behind them in the door, the CPU candidates, Jack, IF and Compa peered through as they listened in on the conversation.
"But what happened on the space station?!" Ryu demanded to know. "My parents were there in case you forgot! What did you do!?"
Omega-Xis grunted, as he turned his head, "Let's stop, I'm done talking about this".
Ryu gritted his teeth as he glared at the FM-Ian "There you go again! Being all secretive! You did kill my mom and dad, didn't you! That's why you aren't saying anything!"
Tears welled up in his eyes as he stared down at Omega-xis "This whole time I thought you were my friend! I thought I could trust you… but you just keep that big of a secret! HOW CAN I TRUST YOU AFTER THAT!".
"We'e done Omega-Xis! You hear me! We're finished!" Ryu screamed, tears rolling down his face "I don't want to ever see your face again!"
"Ryu! Stop! Please think about what you're doing" Nepgear exclaimed, stepping out from the doorway but Ryu didn't look back.
"Well then, I guess there's nothing I can do if you don't trust me anymore" Omega-xis said, looking up.
"We were only together for a short time… but you know…Kid… I was raised to be a bloodthirsty savage on planet FM, but being with you… taught me one human emotion that I can understand, the thing you called trust"
"I still hope we'll meet again…I hope when we do you'll forgive…" Omega-Xis frowned. "See ya" he said, turning into energy before flying off.
Ryu fell to his knees, fighting back the tears that were trying to escape but then he felt someone embrace him.
Ryu slowly looked back and saw Nepgear embracing him and then the others candidates embraced him as well.
Tears began rolling down his face, as he finally let all of his emotions come out with an audible scream.
However what they didn't notice were two things glowing on Ryu's person, his star pendant and something in his pocket.
A few hours later
Third person P.O.V.
"What's this all about, IF?" Histoire asked, as she appeared on the screen of IF's Transer.
IF contacted Histoire to give a situation report on the CPUs after they had been captured.
She filled her in about what happened, from their departure and what Ryu, Omega-xis and Jack had informed the,
"I'm not exactly sure, but they somehow sealed the powers of the goddesses" IF said.
"Can you explain in more detail?" Histoire asked, as IF nodded.
"Yes, apparently it's some kind of Crystal that had the ability to cut a Goddesses connection to the sharacite but that's all I know, think you could take a look?".
"Certainly, but it'll take me three days" she said, as IF nodded "Good, please be quick".
"Is there anything else?" Histoire asked, as IF slowly nodded.
"Yes… there is…" she said, and then proceeded to explain to Histoire what they had just learned, about how Ryu was Rockman.
"You're saying Ryu is Rockman" Histoire said, surprised "I'm sorry IF but I find that hard to believe".
"It's true Histoire" Nepgear said, walking up next to IF "I've known for a while now and I've been helping him fight the aliens this while time".
She then bowed "I'm sorry for not telling you and I'm sorry for getting Ryu into so much dangerous situations!".
"Nepgear…" Histoire said, before smiling "That's alright just come back to Planeptune along with Ryu. Uni and the others should go back to their respective nations as well. I'll go start the research, goodbye".
The call then turned off, as IF turned to the candidates "Well, you heard her–"
"Hold on!" Uni interrupted, "Do you seriously expect us to just go home because she said so? Give us a proper explanation!"
"Usually, Blanc would just knock baddies out in one blow!" Ram followed, with Rom looking down "Is big sis gonna die?".
"I-I'm sure she'll be fine," Compa reassured, but still uncertain
"You heard what those aliens said! Those rocks are cutting them away from the shares! They can die!" Uni argued.
"I'm sorry," Nepgear said, as Compa looked over "It's not your fault, Ge-ge".
"Yes, it is." Nepgear said "Thar rock I picked up back when we were shopping, I'm sure that's the item which drained their powers.".
"If only I had thought more carefully about why I felt numb back then... If only I had told Big sis and the others about it..."
"You idiot!" Uni shouted, "My sister is really strong, but because of you, she's...".
"YOU SHOULD'VE TAKEN HER PLACE!" Uni said, shocking Nepgear as she ran off.
"Uni! Wait!" Nepgear said, as Her, Jack, Rom and Ram followed her.
They found Uni on the balcony as she looked over now "What do you want now! I told you I don't want to-".
"STOP!"
Everyone looked over to Jack after he had been quiet this whole time before he turned to Uni.
"Uni, I know your mad at Nepgear but that shouldn't mean you should be blaming her and Nepgear I know your blaming yourself but you shouldn't, even if you did tell them they were tricked and might've still be captured" he said, making both candidates look down.
"Yeah… Mr. Jack is right so could you please make up" Rom said, as the two candidates looked at each other.
"I guess…I went too far…I'm sorry" Uni apologized, looking down as Nepgear shook her head "Don't be."
"I know it's not your fault. Yet I..." she said, beginning to tear up.
"Yeah, and I know how you feel" Nepgear said, before embracing Uni easing her sadness.
"See do you feel better now" Jack said, as the two candidates nodded.
"I thought there couldn't be anyone stronger than my sister," Uni confessed, "That everything would be fine as long as she was around."
"I'm the same. I can't do anything without my sister either," Nepgear confessed as well "But we can't just sit around and do nothing, Neptune wouldn't stay and neither would Ryu".
"But still, we have no idea what to do" Uni said, looking down
"It's simple! We just need to save them!" Ram said, enthusiastically "I want to save them too," Rom followed suit.
"But we can't even transform yet!" Uni said, as Rom and Ram smiled.
"Then we just need to change that!" Ram said, as Rom nodded "Let's learn how to do it,together".
"Yeah, me and Jack can help ya do it" Scorpio said, from Jack's Transer.
"You'd help us?" Jack said, surprised as Scorpio smirked "Well yeah, I got a bite to pick with Cygnus and the others" he said.
"I suppose that could work, it'll be worth a try at least" Nepgear said, as a Uni looked down
"Noire… she said something about how I can't transform because I subconsciously limiting myself," Uni recalled, "Like the things we're scared about are holding us back."
"Fine the we'll have to keep on training till we're not afraid anymore" Ram said, "Okay?".
Uni and Nepgear both looked at each other before nodding making the two younger candidate's smile.
"Well then, if you're going to be training then you'll need some more help" They heard, looking over to see Lyra Note sitting on the roof of the door.
"Lyra Note…" Nepgear said, looking up.
"Lyra! Is that you? I was wondering where you were" Scorpio said, as Lyra smirked.
"Hey Scorpio, shoulda known you'd betray them sooner or later" She said, as Uni blinked.
"Who are you" Uni asked, as Lyra Note smirked before her whole body flashed.
"EEEEEEHHHHHH?!" Jack, Uni, Rom and Ram gasped, when they saw Lyra Note's human form Aika Tadano.
"Yo" she waved, with a smile.
"Y-Y-You're Aika Tadano!" "Wow! A real idol!" "You're a hero like Rockman" the candidates said, while Jack was just frozen shock as Aika smirked.
"That's right I'm the guardian of love and peace! Lyra Note!" She said, with a peace sign "I'm an old friend of Ryu".
"Aika, what are you doing here?" Nepgear asked, as Aika turned to her.
"Ryu told me about what happened, so I came to see if he was okay but I found you guys instead" she said.
"You'll really help us?" Rom asked, as Aika smiled and patted her head.
"Yup, Vert helped me a few weeks ago so I owe her".
"Thank you… both of you" Nepgear said, looking at Jack and Aika who both nodded.
They then all walked back inside to began training right away right as the sun began rising.
The next day.
We see Ryu sitting down in his bed, curled up inroads ball still depressed because of what happened the other night.
He hadn't slept much since then, which could be seen with the bags under his eyes and the messiness of his hair.
The door then opened up as Ryu looked over to see IF and Compa walking inside.
"Hey Ryu… it's time to head back now…" IF said, as Ryu slowly nodded and got back up.
They then walked up to the other room to get the candidates as Compa looked over at Ryu worried.
"Are you sure you're okay Ryu? You look really bad" Compa asked, as Ryu slowly nodded not wanting to say a word.
"Leave him alone Compa, he's been through a lot" IF said, as Compa nodded as they opened the door only to be surprised at what they saw.
"Ox Tackle!" Taurus Fire yelled, as he dashed towards Nepgear and Uni who had to block the attack but was still knocked away.
"Taurus can't stop moving when he performs the attack, so you need to get better at dodging the attacks!" Scorpio said
"Water scale!" Libra Scales said, as he sent a water tornado towards Rom and Ram who used their ice magic to freeze the tornado, however.
"Fire scale!" He said, as they sent a fire tornado which knocked them back.
"You're magic is very similar, but you need to learn to supper your partners weakness since Libra can only use two elements" Lyra said.
The scene moved back to show that the Candidates, Scorpio and Lyra were using the Manect's training mode so that they can practice fighting the FM-Ian's that were controlled by Jack and Aika.
"What the heck are you all doing!" IF asked, causing them to stop the training.
"IF…" Nepgear said, as IF walked up.
"Why are you using Vert's training simulator?" She asked, as Jack looked over.
"We're helping them train so they can unlock their cpu powers" Jack said, as Aika nodded.
"We wanna help save our big sisters, and the only way we can do that is if we become stronger" Uni said.
"Yeah! We're going to beat those Aliens up!" Ram said, with Rom nodding.
"So please IF, Compa will you please help us grow stronger" Nepgear said, as the two guild members looked at each other before they nodded.
They then continued training, but as this happened Ryu downed before turning around and leaving the room.
Jack and Aika noticed this before they looked at each other and nodded before they followed the boy.
We see Ryu walked towards the enterance of the Bascilicom so he can get to his transport back to Planeptune.
"Ryu!" He heard, before he turned around to see Aika and Jack.
"Ryu, where are you going?" Jack asked, as Aika nodded "Yeah, you're not seriously leaving with the goddesses in danger".
"You don't need me… if I just stayed then I'd get in the way" he said, as the two looked at each other.
"What are you talking about? You have more experience in fighting the guys then anyone else" Kack said.
"You can't just leave now, we need you if we wanna-" "YOU DON'T NEED ME! YOU NEED ROCKMAN!".
"You are Rockman!" Aika said, as Ryu turned to her "You did all those things! Not Omega-xis! You!".
"I'd like to believe that…" he frowned.
"Ryu… are you okay" Jack asked, as Ryu looked down,
"I…No…" he said, as he shook his head away "I don't know if I'll ever be, I mean, you heard Omega-Xis, right? He killed my mom and dad".
"Did he though?" Jack said, as Ryu looked at him "All Omega-Xis was saying was that he did attack the station your parents were on, but he never actually said out right that he killed them".
"If he didn't then why would he dodge the question?" Ryu replied, swinging his arm.
"Regret," They heard, looking up to see Scorpio and Lyra coming in.
"Tell me kid, fair he really did kill your folks, then why would he go out of his way to get you out of danger?" Scorpio said, as Ryu blinked "What are your saying".
"Maybe he just feels guilty for what he did that day" Lyra replied.
"Trust me kid, if Omega-xis feels bad about something he'd definitely try to keep it to himself he's too hard headed to be honest with people".
For a few moments Ryu was silent before he turned around "I'm sorry… but I can't…good luck…I hope you can save them" he said, before he walked out of the Bascilicom much to the others disappointment.
Leanbox
Third person P.O.V.
In the city of Leanbox we see several people running away from Viruses that had now materialising into the real world thanks to the wave road being visible.
All satella police members were trying to bring the public to safety, the Bascilicom opening their doors to keep people safe.
One group were about be done in by the viruses but before they were a green streak rushed in, deleting the viruses.
The humans looked over to their savior only to scream out in terror and flew when they saw Omega-xis.
Omega-xis scoffed as he watched the humans running away 'Typical humans, running away from the first sign of something their not afraid of' he thought, before continuing to fly.
Omega-xis wasn't exactly sure where to go now, he couldn't very well go back to Ryu, especially after last night and he was certain that there was no one else on the planet with an EM frequency similar to his own.
"Shit… what am I meant to do now… it won't be long before the others find me and take the Andromeda key, guess I should find a way off this rock before-GAH!" Omega-xis cried, as he was shot down to the ground.
"Who would dare" he growled, as he looked up to see Ophiucha Queen and Crown Thunder up on the roofs.
"Omega-xis! You're coming with us" Ophiucha demanded, as Crown Thunder jumped up and down.
"That's right! That's right! So why don't you stop being such a rebel and do what you're told" he laughed.
"Heh, like hell I will!" He yelled, shooting blasts at them from his mouth forcing the FM-Ian's to move out of the way.
"Gorgon eyes!" Ophiucha Queen shot Lazers at Omega-sus as he moved out of the way before dashing towards her.
Ophiucha Queen used her speed before dodging out of the way of Omega-xis attack.
Crown Thunder then summoned several skeleton viruses as it all dash towards the virus.
"Beast Slap!" He yelled, swinging his claw at the viruses deleting them.
However it was a trap, as a powerful electric surge began shocking through out the FM-Ian's body.
"G-Gah…ah…Ugh…" Omega-xis said, falling down towards the ground unconscious.
The FM-Ian's walked up to Omega-xis's unconscious body as they picked him and brought him to Zune district.
Zune district
Third person P.O.V.
We see goddesses still trapped in the purple prising their CPU forms having been lost hours ago and under them a dark liquid was dripping down but rising more and more towards them.
"Is it just me or did that pond get higher?" Neptune asked, glancing at the dark pool below them.
Arfoire had told them something ominous about the pool, that it may mean nothing for now but it'll soon mean their end.
Vert swallowed hard, trying to lift her legs a little higher "I've been trying not to worry...but yes it has risen quite a bit." she sighed,mthe tiredness was already getting to her.
"Guys, I hate to say it but...I don't think we may get out of this one. I feel so tired...like the life is draining out of me." Blanc added, trying to struggle.
"Come on Blanc, don't give up yet! We've got to believe in our little sisters!" Neptune said.
"Hate to break it to you Neptune, but I don't think they'll be much help. I mean, Uni can't even transform yet, neither can Nepgear...do you really think they'll be able to save us?"
"Of course I do! I have faith in my little sister, not just her, I have faith in Ryu too! He's been fighting for ages now without even telling us and he was able to kick butt this whole time! I'm sure if they all can work together they can save us easy!".
The other goddesses looked at Neptune's optimism and decided to also believe in the others as well.
However as if on cue the prism was spoken, causing the goddesses to look up to see the body of Omega-xis to be slammed down on the prism they were trapped inside.
"Hey it's that dude that Ryu always had with him when he transforms" Neptune said, as Blanc frowned.
"The one that killed his parents too" She said, as Noire nodded "And the rest of the Elysium probably".
"This doesn't look good then…" Vert frowned, as they watched what was going on.
Outside we see that Omega-xis was being chained on to the prism as he struggled to break free.
"Kukuku, it's a been a long and hard cat and mouse game we've been playing, Omega-xis" Cygnus said smugly.
As this was happening, Arfoire and Pirachu were watching this going on from below as Pirachu took pictures of the goddesses in the their positions.
The rest of the FM-Ian's were causing chaos around the others nations to let off some steam.
"But I am a civilised FM-Ian, so I'll give you a chance, rejoin us, give us back the andromeda key and we might not even destroy this planet you love so much".
"Tch, like hell I'm gonna let you have the key! Don't forget I'm an FM-Ian too I can tell when yiu're lying".
"Fine, I gave you a chance" Cygnus said, as before he reached into Omega-xis's body causing him to stiffen.
"Now to finally get the Andromeda key back!" Cygnus laughed, but it was his amausement slowed down.
This caught Arfoire's attention as she looked up "What's wrong? Are you going to take back the key or not?" She asked.
"It's…not here" Cygnus said, surprising Arfoire "What?".
"It's not here! He doesn't have it!" Cygnus yelled, as he glared at Omega-xis.
"W-What?" Omega-xis said, honestly confused and surprised.
"WHERE IS IT YOU BASTARD!" Cygnus yelled, as Omega-xis growled "I don't know! I never let it go".
"Then where is i-" Cygnus said, before realising something "Oooooooohhhhhhh".
"What?" Omega-xis asked, as Cygnus smirked.
"I see, I didn't expect you as a prankster Omega-xis but you son of a bitch you got me" Cygnus laughed.
"What are you even talking about" Omega-xis asked, as Cygnus smirked.
"The key is with the boy, isn't it?".
"What?" Omega-xis asked, before realising that the forced separation may have left the key with Ryu "No…".
"Hey Rat, call the others, tell them to get after the kid and get the key" he said, as Pirachu wav3d his hand.
"Yeah yeah, whatever.".
"And you know what? Bring the kid here as well I wanna see the goddesses faces as we kill him!" Arfoire smirked, as Pirachu nodded and continued to work.
"What! No you can't do this!" Neptune said, struggling to break free from the cables.
"We won't let you!" Noire said, continuing to struggle.
"When we get out of here we'll kick all your asses!" Blanc roared, moving around from the cords.
"Why are you doing this!" Vert cried, also shaking around.
"YOU LAY EVEN A FINGER ON HIM I SWEAR I'LL CIRCUMCISE YOU WITH A RUSTY FUCKING SPORK! CYGNUS!" Omega-xis roared, much to the surprise of the goddesses as he attempted to break free from the chains.
Cygnus and Arfoire smirked as they left the area to leave Omega-xis alone with the goddesses.
"I don't get it…" Noire said, as Omega-xis looked back "What?".
"From what we've gathered, the only reason you were with Ryu was because you needed a place to hide out from the rest of your race" Noire said.
"And you used the fact that you knew his parents as a way to convince him to agree" Blanc continued, as Omega-xis nodded "That's right…".
"But then… if you had killed his parents… why are you so protective of Ryu? You tried protecting him last time when you two separated but why?".
"…I don't wanna talk about this…" Omega-xis said, looking away.
"Oh come on Mega, if we're going to be stuck here awhile might as well tell us a story, like why'd ya kill Ryu's folks for".
"I didn't kill his folks…" he said, surprising the goddesses "It's just…it was hard to tell him what I actually I did".
"What did you do?" The goddesses asked, as Omega-xis sighed.
"Fine since we're gonna die soon anyway might as well tell you" he said, shaking his head "It all started when we were sent out on a mission to a possible threat because our king was sent a message he couldn't understand…" he said, beginning to explain the story.
Planeptune
Third person P.O.V
"Okay… so them I got use the Tan of the angel too…" Ryu said, as he did some study work in his room.
"And done…" Ryu said, closing his book as he stretched his arms "Ah, what do you want to do now Omega-xis" he said, opening his Transer only to see the screen blank.
"…" Ryu sighed, and shook his head before getting back up "I need to get some air".
The boy walked out of the door and looked out the window, still mesmerized by the now see able wave road with Viruses still around.
Many of the civilians had taken sanctuary of the lower levels of this building in order to get away from the attacking viruses.
"Ryu?" He heard, turn gun around to see Histoire behind him looking pretty tired.
"Oh hi Histoire, are you okay? You're looking pretty tired" Ryu noted, as Histoire nodded.
"Yes, I have been researching as much as I can on those crystals that weakened the CPU's" she tiredly nodded, before opening her eyes "But where are you going?".
"Oh I just thought I'd go out for a walk" Ryu said, as she turned her head.
"Are you sure? It's still pretty dangerous out there" Histoire said, as Ryu smiled.
"Don't worry, I have my battle cards and Transer at the ready so I should be fine" he said, as she nodded.
"Um Ryu, I known you've been through a lot but if you ever want to talk about it I'm right here" she said, as Ryu nodded "Thanks".
Leanbox Bascilicom
Third person P.O.V.
"Take this!" Nepgear yelled, as she swung her battle card powered sword and slashed down the copy Cygnus Wing deleting him.
"W-We did it" Nepgear smiled, as they all finally defeated all of the computer controlled FM-Ian's under an hour.
As the game turned off, with the EM warriors returning to normal, all of our heroes fell to the ground tiredly.
"Ah! That was so scary" Rom sighed, as Ram smirked "Don't worry Rom! Now we can beat up those guys easy".
"Beating the Comouer ones is one thing but defeating the real deal is another" Uni said, as Jack patted her back.
"Come in, we at least know what they can do now so now we're all prepared" he said, as Uni nodded.
"Yeah! And we have larger numbers! It's 8 versus 7 so we should be fine" Aika said, with a smile.
"It could've been 9 versuses 7…" Nepgear said, making everyone go silent.
"We can't let that stop us" IF said, as everyone nodded "Alright everyone take the chance to rest and get ready, we'll be leaving when the sun goes down".
"Iffy! Terrible news!"
They looked over to see Compa running in with her phone "Compa? What's wrong".
"Look at this" Compa said, as she gave her the smartphone shocking IF on what was displayed.
It was a picture of Purple Heart and the rest of the goddesses all tied up and growing weaker and weaker.
"Everyone, gather up!" IF called, as went to her, wondering what was going on.
She showed the picture, and Nepgear wasn't too comfortable seeing her sister like that.
"Oh no, news of the four goddesses being captured will spread like wildfire" Jack said.
"If we don't save them soon then their might be a share crash and with out our sisters I don't think the nations can survive" Uni said, looking down.
"Then we better make sure to free the goddesses before things get bad" Aika nodded.
"Yeah, I know we can do it! We've become even stronger now I know we're close to unlocking our CPU powers" Nepgear said, as everyone else nodded.
Back in Planeptune
Ryu P.O.V.
I walking down the streets of Planeptune which were empty since everyone else were hiding in their homes or in the Bascilicom.
"This… is all my fault…" I said, as I looked at the viruses roaming the streets.
"If…I had just listened to Omega-xis and not try getting him off me…" I said, before shaking head,
"No! Why am I sympathising with him! He killed my parents" I said, before remembering what Scorpio told me.
"Trust me kid, if Omega-xis feels bad about something he'd definitely try to keep it to himself he's too hard headed to be honest with people".
"Damn it…" I said, shoving my hands into my pockets but then I noticed something inside "Huh?".
I pulled out my pocket to see what was inside but my eyes widened when I did.
"The…Andromeda…key…" I said, looking at the glowing sphere in my hand.
"Why…do I have it? Did…Omega-xis leave it with me by accident" I said, slowly.
The key then began vibrating as it began pulling my hand around "H-Hey!" I said, as it began dragging me "The heck! W-Wait!".
It dragged me for a few minutes until it stopped pulling only for me to see someone being attack by viruses "Huh? Hey are you okay!"
I started running towards the viruses as I pulled out some battle cards before inserted into the Transer.
"Battle card! Predation! Sword! Wave! Gatling!" I said, inserting them into my Transer.
This caused the wave weapons to appear next to em as they flew towards the viruses and attacked them.
This caused the viruses to be deleted as I ran up to the person "Hey are you oka-Huh?".
Who I saw on the ground was Rei Ryghts who was looking dazed and dizzy.
"Uh, Huh oh Ryu!" She said, as I offered her my hand.
"Feels like I'm always helping you" I joked, before noticing her tearing up and shaking "Uh, Rei?".
"RRRRRRRRYYYYYYYYUUUUUUU!" She cried, hugging me tightly making me blush brightly.
"R-R-R-Rei! W-W-What a-a-are you doing!" I blushed, struggling but she wouldn't go.
"I-I W-W-WAS S-S-SO S-S-SCARED!" She cried, making me blush.
"Okay! Okay! J-Just calm down!".
A few minutes later
"Mmmmmmm" Rei groaned, embarrassingly as we both sat down on a bench, well Rei was laying down on it blushing a lot.
"You doing okay?" I asked, scratching my cheek as she moved back up.
"I-I'm sorry about that I-I was j-just so scared of those viruses when you saved me I felt such a rush of relief that I didn't know what I was doing next" she sighed.
"It's alright, I get it you were scared" I said, as she nodded
"Thanks" she sighed, before looking at me "Um Ryu, are you okay? You're looking really tired".
"Huh, yeah I've just been through a lot recently" I said, surprising her "Like what?".
"I guess… I recently learned that someone that I trusted had betrayed my trust, I exploded at him and said that I never wanted to see him again without actually hearing him out…" I said, before looking down "But I guess you can't relate to that".
"Actually I can" she smiled, making me blink "Really?".
"Yeah, I used to have a friend that I was really close with but the last time I saw him… we had a fight… I thought he was doing something against me but later on I found out that he was actually just trying to help me… I haven't seen him since… and I can never see him again".
"Wow…Rei" I said, feeling sympathy for the older woman "So I guess you should at least talk to your friend, and see why he did what he did".
"Okay" I smiled, before looking at her "Thanks… I needed that Rei".
"No problem" she smiled, ruffling my hair a bit.
"By the way Rei, what was your friends name?" I asked, as she blinked.
"On his name was So-"
BOOOOOOOMMMMMMM!
Sddenlt there was a large explosion which knocked the two of us back.
"Ugh, who?" I said, looking up to see Taurus Fire stomping towards us.
"I finally found you brat!" Taurus Fire boasted, as he shot fire from his snout "You're coming with me! Ox Tackle!" He said, dashing towards us.
"Rei! Quick we need to go!" I said, grabbing her hand as we began running from the FM-Ian.
"What is a FM-Ian doing here!" She asked, as we ran away from Taurus Fire.
"I'm not sure! And why are they looking for us" I said, but then we heard a crash on the roof of the building above us.
"You're not getting away from us that easily!" Wolf woods howled, as he swung his arms towards but Rei lifted her hand and summoned a spear like weapon blocking the attack.
"Ryu! Get out of here I'll try and keep them busy" Rei said, as I looked at her.
"I can't just let you stay-" "Just do it! Leave this to the adults and get to safety".
"…" I said, before nodding and running off to safety.
Switch to Rei P.O.V.
I watched as Ryu got out of ear shot before turning to the two FM-Ian's in front of me.
"Hah! You really think you can on the both so us!" Taurus Fire boasted, while Wolf Woods frowned.
"Wait… Gemini? Why the heck are you in our way" Wolf asked, as Taurus looked at Wolf "Wait, that's Gemini".
"Heh you tell me, it's my host that showed up here" Gemini said, materialising next to me.
"Huh wait, why do you want to hurt Ryu? He's just a good kid" I asked, as Gemini shook his head.
"Have you not learnt anything?" Gemini asked, as I continued looking confused.
"The kid's Rockman, and not only that but he's got the Andromeda key".
"WWWWWWHHHHHHHAAAAAATTTTTTT!" I screamed, shocked.
Meanwhile with Ryu
"Hah…hah…" I said, hiding behind a building as the sun began setting "I shouldn't have left Rei, she could hurt" I said, about to head back to help her.
I was about to go and help her but then my pendant began glowing "Huh?" I said, loookign at my pendant.
"It's just like in my dream" I said, as itbegan glowing brighter and brighter as I was engulfed by the light "What!".
I was then shot in the air, as my whole body rocketed in the night sky "AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!".
Zune district
Third person P.O.V.
We see Nepgear and the others as rather qatched a large army of virus on the island.
"I didn't expect there to be so many Viruses" Uni said, as Scorpio smirked.
"Don't worry, these guys ain't that hard to beat" he said, before turning to Jack "You ready partner".
"Yeah" he said, as Jack and Aika stood up before they lifted their Transer.
EM WAVE CHANGE! JACK EOS! ON AIR!
EM WAVE CHANGE! AIKA TADANO! ON AIR!
Now transformed the group of 8 looked down at the large army of EM viruses.
Jack's EM form was now different, the mouth piece was now gone as he wrapped a yellow scarf around his neck.
"So why did you want to change things up anyway?" Jack asked, looking at his partner "Breakman was when you were in control, but now we're both in control so I thought a new name would work better, so call me… Protoman".
The others nodded as they began running down the hill towards the viruses.
'Don't worry Neptune… we'll definitely save you… no matter what!' Nepgear thought, as they began their greatest battle yet.
