She remembered seeing him a few days ago. It was back when the President of the Student Council had a robattle against the leader of The Screws, the school gang that did everything they could to have robattles on school grounds without a care in the world. He sat on the ground with his eyes closed and a smirk proudly on his face. Amongst of chaos that the Medabots caused, she could only hear whispers of what he said to his friend. Facts about both Medabots without any hesitation or pause flew from his mouth like a bird taking flight. The way he predicted that Peppercat, the Medabot that was pitted against the President's Medabot, had a plan to win with her agility truly showed her just how intelligent he was.
It was a shame, she remembered, that he previously didn't have a Medabot to call his own until a few days ago. When she heard the rumors of him defeating The Rockers, a gang of Medafighters that forced kids to fight them, she was happy for him. He wouldn't lose his talent or passion for Medabots now, and he would most likely be happier than ever before. Erika, the girl that ran the newspaper club of the school and "friend", if she could call her that, of the boy she was thinking of, spread rumors around the school that the new Medabot was not only old, but defective as well.
Ikki didn't deserve to have a friend like her. A friend who didn't really care about him, or would listen to him whenever he brought up a good point. Sure, she knew that Ikki was also quite reckless. His grades and behavior in his classes were proof of this, but he knew when to back off from something it seemed. Unlike the school journalist. Why Ikki... Ikki Tenryou? Yes, that was his name. Why Ikki hung out with a girl like the journalist was confusing and illogical too.
"So you think that we should enlist the aid of Ikki Tenryou then?" The Student Council President asked her. Though the sudden question caused her to stop thinking about Ikki, she casually nodded and pointed to the chalkboard behind her. She had, while she waited for the President to show up to their new headquarters, wrote out all the details she could obtain about Ikki and the abilities of his new Medabot, Metabee.
"Yes sir. With the new, unheard of Medabot Ikki has, Samantha won't know what to do in terms of attacking him. Plus he did defeat three Medabots, one of which was an aerial Medabot, at the same time, which has to show some of Ikki's skills as a Medafighter."
"I see." He nodded several times. With each nod the passive lip he had grew into a smile much bigger than the last. It was when his smile couldn't move no more that he started to laugh happier than she had ever seen him. "Of course! He will be our ace in the hole! He will be the one to help us regain the Student Council room, and he'll represent that the old school rules!" He must have heard about Ikki's Medabot model being an old one for him to say such an odd statement. Regardless, it was at that point when the Vice President showed up to inquire what he had missed that she realized she no longer cared about what was discussed.
All she cared about was writing a simple letter for Ikki Tenryou to read and come to their temporary headquarters for their aid.
(Author Note)
Hello my fellow readers, reviewers, and followers! I welcome you to the bare, kinda updated archive known as the Medabots Fanfiction, and I'm here to try and add some breath to this desert! I know the prologue doesn't look like much, especially since it IS my shortest chapter to date; however, all good things come in time, and this story is one of them. So, per tradition with my other stories, I don't own Medabots or any other sort of reference I make to other shows, series, products, etc etc. With that said, some info!
The main reason I started this story was due to my personal opinion of Ikki's deal with the Student Council trio never getting completed for reasons unknown. What I mean by this is that -spoiler alert- Ikki doesn't get to become Vice President after the second episode like it was offered to him, but the show never hits the nail onwhy he wasn't allowed to become Vice President. My girlfriend and I have bounced back ideas on it, but we can't seem to agree on why Ikki wasn't allowed to claim his position. So, in essence, not only is this my take on why he wasn't allowed, but it also allows me to give breath to the girl on the Student Council, who officially has no name might I add.
What can I say? I found her voice to be cute to match her overall design, and she seemed to really want Ikki to join them on the Student Council. It's for that reason I could also see her writing the letter to bring his attention to their building (it seriously looks like a love letter). So, all in all, this is my take on what would happen is she sought to befriend Ikki no matter the cost.
Now, I'll most likely be posting this with at least one or two more chapters since this prologue is so small, but that shouldn't be a problem. This is also one of three different versions of this story that are different between each one. So, until next time, stay golden everyone!
