NiGHtsBeta09: Hey everyone! This is the first work I'm uploading here! This is the prologue to a story that we (and yes, I mean we) hope to continue for you guys to enjoy~ ^^" Well... uhm... enjoy~! :3
This is a collaborated piece done by both Nakashima Fate and myself~ You'll see the writing styles of both of us in here~
Prologue
A few days after Megaman formed a BrotherBand with Planet FM and befriended Cepheus, other survivors of Planet AM were watching from afar.
"Damn those FM-ians!" growled a shadow.
"Don't forget that Megaman jerk from Planet what-cha-ma-call-it formed a BrotherBand crap whatever with them too!" growled another.
"Agreed! They're just as bad!"
"So do we all agree that we take our revenge!"
"Yeah!"
"Down with Planet FM! Down with Planet Earth!"
"Hmm…?" Omega-xis looked up at the sky as if he felt something in the air.
"Mega? What's wrong?" asked Geo.
"Nothing kid. Just thought I felt some bad waves just now."
"Bad waves?"
"Just go to sleep since you got school, kid, unless you wanna ditch and see your girlfriend?"
Geo blushed a bit, "S-Sonia's not my girlfriend! Fine good night!"
Omega-xis watched him climb into bed and once he's sure he fell asleep, he disappeared into the wave road and stared at the sky.
"Just who are you…? What's gonna come now…?"
"Omega-xis?"
Omega-xis turned and saw Lyra, an FM-ian comrade, "What do you want Lyra?"
"Is there something wrong? I can feel it too…just slightly than what you can feel since it has a different frequency than normal."
"Something's coming and I don't like it. That's all I know."
"We better be prepared for this then…"
"Yeah…"
They both stared up at the sky, hoping the Satellite Admins will give them a sign as to what will happen soon.
The Next Day:
"I'm off to school!" Geo told his mom as he ran out the door.
As Geo reached a few blocks away from school, Omega-xis shouted at him, "Stop!"
"Wha…? I'm gonna be la-!" Geo shouted back but couldn't finish his sentence because of an explosion a few meters ahead of him.
"You owe me for that one kid…but first let's get outta here!"
"Y-Yeah!" Geo ran the other way.
"Damn we missed…"
"Don't be discouraged Butanishi… Light… we just merely sent him a warning."
"Shall we give him more?"
"No we have other targets to draw out Megaman."
"Yes sir!"
"M-Mega… -pants- W-What -pants- What was that?" Geo hid in an alleyway, trying to hide from his unforeseen attackers.
"Not sure kid all I know is that it could be the same as FM-ians but not the same."
"The same but not the same?"
"Geo!"
Geo opened his Transer, "Luna? What's happening?"
"I don't know but something is- Ahh!"
"Luna? Luna!" Geo looked at Omega-xis, "We gotta get to school!"
"Right" he nodded and fused with Geo.
"I hope everyone's alright…"
"Geo be careful something's telling me that these aren't FM-ians."
"I'll be careful then!"
Luna Platz, Bud Bison, and Zack Temple ran and tried to hide from the fire and blinding light that was attacking them.
"What is going on?" Luna panted as she slumped down.
Bud and Zack tried to keep calm and on watch, "D-Don't worry Prez… I'm sure Megaman will show up soon…"
"Yeah… I hope so…"
"What do we have here…?"
"Gah!" the trio backed up into a wall, scared, "I-It's the same thing as that bull thing that possessed Bud!"
"Bull…? I have no idea what you're talking about." said a red EM Body, similar to Taurus, but with a pig-like, tusked head instead of ox's horned one, and shoulder and chest plate armor.
"P-Please don't possess us!"
"Possess? We have no intention for that." a brownish EM Body with armor over top of head and down back where a mane-like part of body stuck out of the back of the armor, a bit like a horse, reassured them.
"Butanishi! Light! Get ready. Alpha and Beta orders that "he's" coming soon." said a green EM Body with an armor on his head like a helmet, and hands that looks like fingerless gloves, looking a bit like a monkey.
"Finally! I can get that jerk!"
"Calm Butanishi. If he's as what made the King of Planet FM form a BrotherBand with Earth then he must be weak enough that Shadow and Hitsu can take care of in one blow."
Luna snapped "Megaman isn't weak! He can beat you all within a second!"
"Ho…" Butanishi stepped closer to her, "If you think this Megaman is such a hero why hasn't he show- Gah!"
"Butanishi!" Light shouted, worried for his partner when he sees that Butanishi's back was steaming.
"You called?" Megaman pointed his MegaBuster at them.
"Megaman!" Luna, Zack and Bud shouted in joy.
"You three get outta here! It's dangerous!"
"Yes!" the trio ran away and hid in a safe place.
"So there you are…" They all grinned, "Megaman!"
Meanwhile:
"I can't keep this up!" panted Harp Note as she dodged a water pillar.
"Quit running and tell us where he is!" shouted a blue EM Body with armor surrounding his horns and torso, similar to Taurus, as he attacked her.
"And I keep telling you that I won't even if I knew! Shock Note!" Harp Note strummed her guitar fast and a wave of music notes flew at them.
"Useless!" shouted a gray EM Body, similar in shape to a phoenix, with armor covering the top of his wings only, blew a gust of wind and easily blew her notes out of the way.
"This is bad we better get out of here, Sonia!" suggested Lyra.
"No, I can't!" Harp Note struggled to run away from her attackers, "If I run they'll eventually find Geo!"
"They're going to find him sooner or later but we have to run!"
"You have a point but…"
"Time to say good bye! Dark Fog!" shouted a black EM Body, armor covering the ends of what seem to be its paws and the tip of its rat-like tail.
"Ah!" Suddenly a dark fog surrounded Harp Note and she couldn't see anything.
"Heh heh my turn! Thund-" a yellow EM Body in an almost cloud-like shape that looked a bit like a sheep shouted.
"Stop, Hitsu!" the blue ox stopped Hitsu from attacking.
"Why Ox? I was gonna finish her off!"
"Beta's orders that they have found Megaman and we all have to gather and test his skills."
"Tch. How boring" They all disappeared.
After some time Harp Note was released and fell from her hold of the fog, panting, "T-These guys… are tough…"
"I'm worried about Omega-xis and Geo, but you need to rest, Sonia."
"No… I'm… going…" Harp Note managed to barely stand and disappeared to Geo's school.
Back at Geo's School:
"Battle card! Barrier!" Megaman shouted as he set up a barrier to block Butanishi's tackle.
"Move Butanishi, you're an eyesore! Blinding light!" shouted a white EM Body, armor on its neck, back, and ears and a wildly-shaped EM tail, a bit like a rabbit's, as he attacked and blinded Megaman.
"Gah!"
"Stallion rush!"
"Oh no you don't!" Harp Note appeared in front of Megaman to shield him, "MachineGun Strings!"
"Uma!"
"What?" Uma shouted as he was caught, "I'm not giving up!" He pushed onwards.
Harp Note struggled to keep her grounds, "I don't know if I can keep this up…!"
"H-Harp Note…?" Megaman struggled to see who was protecting him.
"Get out of the way now!" she shouted as she pushed him aside and took the full blow of Uma's attack. She screamed in pain as she was flung against a wall, going right through it. Passing out on the other side, she reverted back to her human form.
"Sonia!" Lyra shouted worriedly, "Sonia are you alright?"
Sonia couldn't reply due to the amount of pain she was in.
"Foolish girl." Ox floated close to her, "If you told us where Megaman was in the first place we wouldn't have to resort to this much violence."
"Get away from her!" Megaman struggled to see and aim.
"Seems he has a death wish. Alright, let's-"
"Wait." said a white EM Body with large claws and fangs, covered by a fully armored head, torso, and shoulder plate armor and a wolf-like shape, stopped them, "Let's wait since it is childish to pick on the weak."
"I agree. We shall wait until they are able to fight back." A black EM Body added, also with claws and such, and similar, yet lighter, armor to the wolf-like being but more feline in shape.
"Damn no fun." one by one they all disappeared.
As the last one was about to disappear, he gave an evil grin to Megaman and the rest, "Better watch yourself otherwise we'll kill you soon and make you join your parents."
"My parents…?" Megaman reverted back to his human being, and after a few seconds he could see well again, "Ah Sonia!"
"She's ok just a few bruises…" Lyra said guiltily, "I'm sorry…"
"It's not your fault Lyra…" Geo held onto Sonia but then collapsed due to exhaustion.
"Hey Geo!" Omega-xis sighed, "What do we do now…?"
"Go get help of course, Omega-xis. After we bring them home, I need to talk to you about them."
Omega-xis just stayed quiet.
"Megama… Geo!" Luna, Bud, and Zack all came back, "We have to call the hospital or something!"
"It's better if they're at Geo's house since they're just exhausted." suggested Omega-xis.
"I-If you say so…" Bud and Zack carried Geo and Luna carried Sonia.
They brought Geo and Sonia back to Geo's house, making sure Hope didn't see them in their condition.
They waited in Geo's room with Zack keeping watch for Hope. A few hours later, Geo woke up.
"What happened...?" he asked, wincing a bit when he tried to stand.
"You were hurt when battling those beings." Luna told him, "We should take you two to the hospital to make sure you don't have anything too serious." There was worry in her voice, mostly when she continued. "Especially Sonia…"
"Right…" Geo looked at Sonia then helped Bud and Zack carry her there.
"Why didn't these kids listen to me?" growled Omega-xis, on the roof of the hospital that Geo and Sonia are currently hospitalized in.
"Cool it Omega-xis… they're worried and miraculously they didn't have any serious injuries; just some bruises."
"This is even more dangerous." Omega-xis glared at the sky, "We gotta get them outta here now!"
"Why should I listen to you mutt?"
"We don't have time for this pointless argument!"
"Then tell me what you think of this battle"
"Hope you get well soon Sonia. We'll visit again tomorrow." said Geo as he left with Luna, Bud, and Zack.
Few minutes later.
"Ugh… L-Lyra…? Where are you…?" said Sonia as she sat up weakly, thinking that her partner was near her.
"You should be sleeping forever." said Hitsu as he floated above her.
"E-Eh…?" Sonia backed up into the wall behind her, scared, and winced at her wounds.
"Hitsu." a voice growled behind him.
"B-Beta…"
"Do as you're told or else." she gave him a stern look.
"F-Fine…" He looked at Sonia, "Healing cloud!"
"Ah!" Sonia shut her eyes closed in fear as to what was going to happen, but instead of the pain she thought that she was going to receive, she felt warm, "W-What…?"
"Be thankful… but don't think that this will happen again since we needed you to convey a message to Megaman for us." Beta turned her back to her, "We of the Koudoutai will destroy earth for helping Planet FM destroy our Planet!"
Soon after, they both disappeared, leaving Sonia strangely confused.
"S-Sonia!" Lyra appeared into her room, "A-Are you alright?"
"A-Ah Lyra yeah I'm fine…"
"You look a little pale dear… do you want to sleep?"
"No I'm fine. I gotta get back to Geo as soon as possible."
"But yo-… wait what happened you're good as new." Lyra observed Sonia's body.
"That's why." Sonia put on her clothes straight, "The enemies made contact with me and healed me up." She looked at Lyra seriously.
"I see…" She didn't like what she was just told. "Everyone went to Geo's house to make up a strategy, so we should go too." Lyra floated next to her, "Ready when you are."
Sonia nodded, "EM wave Change! Sonia Strumm! On the air!"
"Let's go."
"I got nothing… What about you Geo?"
"If we think about it… the ones that attacked us were…an ox, monkey, boar, horse, and a rabbit right…?" said Geo, thinking a bit, "What is the connection…?"
"Don't forget a rat, rooster, sheep, wolf, and cat." said a voice behind him.
They all looked and saw Harp Note behind him.
"Sonia!" they all exclaimed as she turned back to her normal self.
"In the flesh." She winked.
"Are you ok?" Geo stood up and looked at her, "How are you feeling?"
"Relax Geo I'm fine…" she sat down with them, "From what I know, the enemies call them 'Koudoutai' and said that they will destroy Earth and Planet FM."
"Planet FM? Then they're not FM-ians?"
"Thought so… they had a different wave length than normal FM-ians. They had to be AM-ians." said Omega-xis.
"There were more survivors?"
"Not that I knew of. We seriously gotta be careful now kid. There's no telling what's up ahead now."
They all nodded.
"I'll try to figure out what our enemies are and try to find some information on them." suggested Zack.
"If it's information I know a bit." Sonia looked at him, "One of the leaders, I think, is someone called 'Beta', Sheep has the ability to use electricity and healing, Ox is water, Rooster is wind or air, Rabbit is something that blinds you so maybe light, and rat must be fog or darkness." Sonia shivered a bit at the thought of one of Shadow's attack.
"Thanks Sonia now we know a bit about our enemies." smiled Geo.
"Yeah!" Sonia smiled back.
"Grrr…" Luna watched them as jealousy rose angrily inside her.
Meanwhile:
"Why couldn't we just kill them off Alpha?" growled Butanishi, "We could easily kill them off right now!"
"Have you all forgotten." Alpha gave them a hard look, "There are other AM-ian survivors here too, including Leo Kingdom, Pegasus Magic, and Dragon Sky."
"True they have taken refuge here for quite a while, but why must we take their presence here into account?" said Shadow.
"I agree, they shouldn't be able to interfere." added Hitsu.
"Wrong!" Alpha growled, "Why can't you all see that they were watching us?"
"Alpha please calm." said Beta, looking at him. He grunted a bit as she continued, "With them watching, they could have interfered and messed with our plans so we must be cautious about this approach. I have already warned Harp Note and we all should be able to defeat Megaman."
"What will we do after we get them out of the way?" asked a light gray EM Body with armor covering the top and back of its head, and more along its arms with stripe-like pieces cut out, giving it the appearance of a tiger.
"Simple. They die, we destroy Earth." said a large, light blue EM Body with a line of armor running from its snout down it's serpentine back, like a dragon. "They are the last line of defense that Earth has. Once we defeat them then there is nothing in our way to destroy Earth."
Alpha and Beta nodded, "Shadow and Hitsu. You two shall go first and kill them."
A canine-like, silvery EM Body with armor protecting it from its nose to its haunches, and small armored pieces on its "paws" like a dog, whined, "Aww no fair~ I wanted to go too."
"Yeah I wanted to go out too." added a smaller, purple EM Body in the shape of a serpent, armor covering part of its back and head, as well as the tip of its tail.
"You will in time." Alpha looked at all of them, "We will now go out and study these humans and infiltrate into their lives, destroying them from the inside out."
"Agreed!"
