Megaman watched helplessly as “The Phantom” had torn away the docking harness and the safety tube and back into space. Megaman barely avoided the safety tube that landed a few meters away from him, along with a considerable amount of twisted metal of what used to be the docking harnesses. A fail safe system had automatically sealed off the other side of the dock which was now open space. On the other side of a small window, the Phantom was already drifting away further and further. There was no way to reach it now. A little ashamed for his failure, Megaman turned on his comm. Link. “Yuna, I lost the ship.”
“I know. Whoever piloting that ship was good.”
“I’m sorry.”
“Me too.”
A sudden sensation of a powerful presence approaching warned Megaman that he had no time to sulk. Glancing on either side, Megaman noticed there was no place for him to hide. The wreckage was too conspicuous and the nearest crates were on the far side of the dock, where the Phantom’s desperate escape had not affected it as much. The light on top of the Elevator door lit up as a warning for approaching elevator. Thinking fast, Megaman removed a floor panel and jumped into a small opening between a maze of pipes.
The opening was cramped and the circular pipes were the only footholds. Still, it was enough for Megaman to hear the elevator door open, and someone approaching. He heard something inaudible, and then sharp clanks on the floor made by multiple footsteps. Megaman willed himself to be ready to jump out and ambush the stranger if he should come any closer.
---------------------
Meanwhile, back on Terra, Roll had just about had the most she could handle. Every day the same problems, the same arguments, the same hypocritical Tron who criticized everything Roll did then end up making the same mistakes herself. If only Barrel’s eyesight was still good enough for him to help with the blueprints.
As Von Bleucher always put it, it was not constructing a ship that was difficult, it was designing a propulsion unit powerful enough to overcome the forces of gravity and into space. Had everything been sorted out, constructing a rocket would have been a piece of cake especially with the combined abilities of Roll and Tron, provided that they work on opposite sides of the ship to avoid needless arguments.
Still, the hard work had paid off quite handsomely. All those times of stifling her fits of anger just to get on Tron’s good side for a little peace and concentration had enabled Roll to complete the critical design of the rocket. All that remained was to take Tron’s share of the blueprints and start building. “Oh, and joys of being a mechanic.” Roll thought.
“Here. I’m done.” Roll pounded her hand on the table, and handed the roll of designs to Tron with great contempt. Tron gave her a “we’ll see about that” look. Unrolling the blueprints, Tron studied them long and hard.
“Well?” Roll demanded.
Tron was shaking now, a combination of fury and impatience. “What do you mean well!” squealed Tron. She held up the blueprints she was working on. Aside from bits and pieces of it, along with the signature of the mechanic, the two blueprints were identical. Roll could swear at that moment, she could have collapsed right there and then. Roll rolled her eyes. “Oh, the joys of being a mechanic.”

OOC: BTW, punkrocker. If you play Suikoden, you'll find that there's a castle on a lake. That lake is Lake Toran.
Barrel: Now what's going on over there? MORE fighting?
Von Blucher: Well, it's not uncommon.

Meezu is, or was, the daughter of Hanto and Shimi Sadoku. Her parents had always had a thirst for knowledge and had risin there little girl to be the same. A smart, inqusitive person who was always willing to learn more. Her parents were scientists that studied refractors. Shimi was the researcher and sotter, while Hanto was the digger. Around the age of 8, Meezu's parents were killed by two sharukurushus while studing a large refractor in a ruin known now as The Sadoku Ruins to honor there death. When Meezu heard of the grim fate that had befallen her parents, she fled into the city and has not been heard from since. Some say that she lives on the streets, making trinkits. Others claim that she becaome an ace hacker and has been in league with pirates to get them treasure. While even some say that she went crazy and went into the ruins that her parents had died in and lives of the warmth of the refractor they were studing. Whatever has become of her, all signs point to her somewhere near the ruins and perhaps she will never get over there death. Only time will tell....
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 1 YEAR LATER - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Meezu is sitting by the opening of the Sadoku Ruins. It is a nice day and so with the money earned from odd-jobs, she bought herself some lunch and is having a pick-nik of sorts by the entrance. While working out some unused files from her laptop, her only thing to remember her parents by, she hears a loud shout come from off in the distance. She decides to go and check out what it was and to make sure no one is injured. As she gets closer to the point of which she thinks the yell came from, she sees some rather large ships with blue paper pinned-up along all of them. When she first notices life, it is a large yellow-ish robot with some other yellow headed robots aroud it. She wispers to herself, "aliens, they must be here to take us all away!". Not able to make out what they are saying very clearly, and the fact that she is a extremly curious young girl, she runs form the tree she had ducked behind and over to a bush just about 15 feet away from the aliens. As she gets to her cover she can make out what the aliens are saying alot better.
Yellow alien: Babu!
alien #1: Uh......yeah thats a nice rocket...( sees his face of confusion as he examines the picture of the kitten )
"so these aliens are building a rocket!" Meezu thinks as she is listening to there conversation.
alien #2: I wonder when Teisel is gonna be back with #8 and the others with pizza, the've been gone for awhile.
alien #3: Well, i think my rocket looks great! What do you think Bon?
Bon: Babuuuu. (it doesn't look anything like mine )
alien #3: i know, thats why i....... nevermind. *sweatdrop*
As Meezu is spying on the robots, a man in green armor walks up with a box of, what appears to be, pizza.
green man: He we are everyone dig in! *they all just sit there* What, not hungry? Fine then i'll just have to eat it all myself, no skin off my bones.
Alien #2: Uh Mr.Teisel, i think Ms. Tron said that she wanted some pizza too.
Teisel: Grr, well whats taking her so long. All she ever does is shout and howl at that blonde girl, there never going to get anything built if they keep bickering.
*Teisel sits down looking at the box in a bored/pouting sort of way*
Teisel: She could at least take a break.
*they robots continue there work on the rockets and "Teisel" just sits there staring at the pizza........waiting for Tron*
OCC: Maybe I could have Meezu team up with th Bonnes. if you have anything to say post in the Disscution thread.

OOC: I just did this out of boredom.
Bon stares hungrilly at the pizza. If he had a mouth he would be drooling, or eating the pizza.
Bon: Buuuuuuuuu...babuubababu.[Mmmmmmm...I hope Big Brother got peperoni.]

Axl aimed his rifle, no targets he didn't expect an ambushed but if so he was ready to back fire this ambush. When he was nearing the door that led to the safety tube he checked his HUD and examined his radar. He noticed a target and as he moved he was getting closer to the target. Axl checked his radar again, he looked down and saw a familiar face. "Well, well, well! Look what we have here" Axl smiled and reached down and tore off the floor panel revealing Megaman Trigger. "I knew you would be here Trigger-" Axl grabbed him by the head and threw him out. He turned to Alpha and Bravo and said "You two return to the ship, I can handle this." The drones followed orders and went out of the room, they saw that the safety tube was floating in space so the propelled themselves into space and were able to dock with the ship (iono how ) Axl grasped his rifle and pointed it at Trigger, he ordered him to get up and fight. "Whats the matter Trigger cat got your tongue? Humph! Today you will pay for lives you've taken. All those years ago, you destroyed the lives of my 6 friends. You and Zero! There deaths led to mass destruction. You failed to perform your duty as a first class purifier." Growing madder as Axl's memories were passing him, Axl continued speaking. "The blood you shed was no doubt unacceptable! I don't care what the Master had said to you, I don't care anymore! TODAY I will become the greatest purifier unit in the galaxy! TODAY I WILL LEAD YOU TO YOUR DOWNFALL TRIGGER! You will die today you piece of crap!" Megaman Trigger looked confused, but before he could say anything Axl opened fired into Trigger's chest. He had wasted an entire clip onto him. Axl was furious, he reloaded his weapon and Megaman fought back. OOC: Sorry if I kinda controlled Mega dude and Cere you can start talking ;D

That's ok, Sim. I'll make Megaman extra chatty in this post. Thx anyhow. ;D
Megaman forced himself to get up, his muscles aching immensely, and his head swam. Megaman nearly vomited when he placed his hand on the spot where Axl’s 36 shots had been fired mercilessly at him. Still, he must retaliate. This new enemy has gone insane with anger. “Hold on a sec!?
Megaman locked his arms around Axl’s neck from behind. “What do you mean I killed your friends!?The answer hit Megaman as soon as he had asked the question. No? Megaman felt like vomiting but this time not from pain but from the realization of who Axl was referring to.
Axl broke free easily and Megaman fell on his behind, disoriented. Megaman looked up at Axl, horror stricken. You are a 1st class purifier too just like me. And your friends were...? "The other six 1st class purifiers." Axl said. (<< needed to do this so it's easier for other people who didn't read in the discussion board to understand)

Axl looked down at Megaman. Something was wrong with Trigger, he looked like he had just met Axl for the first time in his life. Axl wondered why he couldn't indentify who he was. Why was his armor different, why does he look different? "What gives Trigger? Do you not remember me?" Axl lowered his rifle he wasn't paying attention and he easily let his guard down. OOC: Cere you can control Axl anytime you want ;D and only you if anyone trys to I'll bite ya

(Cere:Yipee! I can control Axl. Hahaha. Makes Axl do the CanCan.) I'm sorry. I don't know you.?Megaman said. You're serious?? Megaman nodded genuinely. I'vee undergone a reset so my appearance, and strength isn't quite what it used to be.? Axl wsa stunned for a moment and thought Trigger? The 1st class purifier who single handedly (well along with Zero) destroyed the Elysium system went through a rest!? Why the heck would he want to do that? Before, Trigger was probably the strongest of the nine 1st class purifiers. His power was equal to that of the Mother units if not greater. Something was very wrong here.?And Axl had an idea why. You fool!? Axl butted Megaman on the side of his head with his rifle. You thought that losing your memories would free you from you guilt, didn't you!! The guilt of having betrayed all of Elysium and your dear friends! The thousands that died on the day of your betrayal, I...l'll never forget that horror! I'll never forget how much it hurts when you, our dear comrade, betrayed us!? Anger surged through Axl again, and he began to attack Megaman relentlessly. Megaman tried to fight back as best as he could but his opponent was too strong. He had already exhausted much of his buster's energy battling the shielded drones from before. The red purifier, however, looked as though he had plenty of power to spare, and was insistent on spending it all on Megaman. MEGA BUSTER!? Megaman threw a punch at Axl with his buster arm and fired a buster shot 3 inches from Axl's face. Axl evaded the brute of the attack but had the side of his face scorched. Out of balance, Axl still managed to punch Megaman on the spot he had shot him before. Groaning, Megaman rolled on the ground. Axl was already recovering and on his feet again. No. I'm taking more damage than I'm doing to him.?Megaman knew that he wouldn't be able to defeat Axl but maybe he wouldn't have to. Listen. I may not remember everything but there is one thing I must confirm?With that, Megaman grabbed a barrel from behind and threw it at Axl. Axl shot the barrel out of instinct, which erupted into a large gas cloud that covered the entire area. Axl braced himself for an attack but no attack came. As the last of the gas rolled towards Axl’s feet, he realized that Megaman had disappeared. (The barrel thingy escape was approved by Punkrocker. Back to you guys now.)

OOC: *slaps behind Axl's head* DON'T DO THE CANCAN! "Damn it! He got away." Axl put a bandage on the side of his face where Trigger had shot him. He then contacted Toran. "Toran, do you copy over?" ---------------------------------------- Meanwhile Toran was in the cockpit with Alpha and Bravo he made sure that the drones were repaired right and ready for combat, suddenly a transmission from Axl could be heard. "Toran, do you copy over?" The AI established contact with him and spoke through the ship's comm radio. "Toran here, master Axl are you alright?" "Ya, I'm fine. Can you reattach the safety tube so I can get in?" Toran manuevered the ship again and the safety tube was connect to the Phantom. ----------------------------------------------------- Axl dashed through the tube, once he got into the ship he went straight to the armory room. Alpha and Bravo greeted him when Axl entered the room. "Alright you two, your with me. We are gonna make an assault to Yggradasil." The angry purifier unit grabbed a HAVOC bomb and few other battery magazines for his rifle. Axl attached an MA4K mini missile launcher onto the drones for some heavy duty. Once they were prepared the 3 warriors went through the tube and into Elysium once again. They stepped onto an elevator that lead them to Yggradasil. Once they reached their destination, they came into view of the fortress. The shields of Yggradasil were on, but only 40%. "On my mark!" Axl said. He raised his hand with all 5 fingers out. First 5, 4, then 3, 2, and one. The team moved out, they stopped every few meters to make sure that the roaming reaverbots close to Yggradasil wouldn't notice them. A Gai-nee reaverbot noticed the 3 newcomers. The reaverbot deployed several Sharukurusus. The group of reaverbots dashed to the team. Axl quickly noticed the attackers a few meters away. He raised his rifle and fired a burst of plasma rounds into the Sharukurusus. The drones also fired with Axl and immediniatly vaporised the reaverbots. The team couldn't tolerate a break, they kept moving like a pack of wolves.

20 meters below ground, Megaman stumbled through the dimly lit tunnel. The wounds inflicted by Axl seared with pain. His armor was beaten mercilessly, cracked and dented in numerous places. It won’t be any help if Axl goes after him again.
Megaman pulled off his armor, winching when chipped pieces of his armor were digging into his flesh. It wasn’t doing him any good trying to head back to Yggradasil as quickly as possible. Aside from his battle with Juno, Megaman’s armor had never been damaged so critically before. Thanks to Roll, his armor was 3 times as strong when he fought Sera but this red purifier pretty much annihilated him. “Well, I better get back now.” Megaman thought as he smoothed the creases on his T-shirt.
The underground was cold, and the T-shirt had no sleeves. Megaman stuck his hands into his pants pocket, hoping he wouldn’t be a popsicle by the time when he gets home. “At least Yuna and Sera will be waiting for him.” Megaman thought.
(Cere: Punkrocker, you can begin the attack even if Megaman isn’t back yet)

Axl and the drones made it to Yggradasil. But they were only outside of the base. The shields were operational. Axl remembered that he brought the HAVOC bomb. He reached for the bomb and carefully planted it next to the energy shields. He didn't really want to destroy the base, he remembered how many times he had fought in the last war. He remembered all his friends that hanged out here, but that was the past and Axl needed to get revenge.
"Alright! Alpha, Bravo I got 12 watch the flanks."
The drones made a slight nod and turned around watching Axl's 6.
"Hostiles are engaging!" Alpha alerted. Several hordes of reaverbots were charging at the drones. But Bravo switched his plasma turrets with his MA4K mini missile launcher. When the reaverbots were a few meters away, the drone fired his rocket launcher.
The rocket propelled into the air and it impacted into the middle of the horde.
Axl looked behind him to see what was going on. More reaverbots were closing in and the drones wouldn't be able to hold all of them off.
Alpha opened fired while Bravo switched his weapons. More and more reaverbots were clossing in on them.
"Master Axl, we can't-" Alpha was cut off when a gigantic Hanmuru doll reaverbot over shadowed them. The drones made a run for it. They didn't bother to warn Axl.
"What was that?" Axl said. He turned around noticing that the huge reaverbot was behind him. Axl gulped and threw himself away from the reaverbot when the robot's arm came clashing down. The reaverbot accidently hit the HAVOC bomb causing the bomb to go off. The reaverbot explosin and the bomb's explosin fused together making a huge blast radius. The shields of the Yggradasil and some parts of the base were destoryed. Also Axl was caught in the blast radius.
Axl was sent flying into the air. Once he landed to the ground he went unconsious. The drones rolled to Axl's aid making sure he was alright.

“What was that?!?Yuna picked herself up, having been thrown against the wall the moment the bomb went off. The lights were flickering but the monitor was still running normally, having higher priority when under siege. Yuna watched as the computer indicated full shield collapse, the destruction of the outer defenses on the right wing, and the shut down of two Razeal Generators.
“This is bad.?Yuna told herself. With two of the generators offline, that leaves only 1 Razeal generator to power the entire compound. At this rate, the energy will easily be depleted. Yuna got to work quickly, trying to locate Sera. With Megaman gone, Sera was their only defense.
******
Sera toppled the slab of debris that had fallen on top of her. She was a little shaken from the sudden explosion, and she was covered in a thin layer of dust but otherwise she was fine. (Mother Units can't die that easily, no? ^^)
Her surroundings were no so well off, however. The floor panels were peeled off and crumbled like orange peels, pieces of the war littered the ground, and cable lines dangled off the ceilings. The destruction reminded Sera of the days Trigger attacked Elysium but this was no time to think about the past. Cleaning herself off as best as she could, Sera passed through a hole in the wall to yet another room, which was more structurally intact. Yuna should still be in the bridge. Sera thought. She'll rendezvous with Yuna first, and figure out who or what was attacking them.

Elsewhere on Terra, one island away from where the Casketts and Bonnes are, 3 miles under ground:
Aegis: It appears I was in error assuming that a Bureaucratic Model such as myself could be able to best you in hand-to-hand combat. However, I was successful in keeping you occupied long enough for Eden to achieve optimal altitude before you could interfere.
Aegis looks like Juno, except he has yellowish green hair, grey (almost black) armor, really evil looking eyes, and legs.
Aegis: This is Aegis, Bureaucratic Model Second Class, Authorization Number 7768. Requesting the Reinitialization of this island's systems, and memory back-up of its bureaucratic systems...
Code: ZERO! Do it NOW!
Zero: I know, I KNOW! (stabs Aegis in the chest, destroying him)
OS Voice: Eden systems ready. Awaiting confirmation. Requested back-up of Bureaucratic Model Aegis complete. Execution of Macalania Reinitialization Program will commence in 100 seconds.
Code: Interrupt command. Priority command rerouted to Purifier First Class Zero Omega. Under suspicion of malfunction, Bureaucratic Model Second Class Aegis has been deactivated by Zero Omega as per Ordinance 103. Zero Omega hereby requests the indefinite postponement of the previous Reinitialization order, and the deletion of Bureaucratic Model Aegis's back-up data. Zero hereby assumes all Bureaucratic authority for the District, and will petition Mother for guidance at a future date.
OS Voice: Command reroute acknowledged. Priority given to Purifier First Class' command. Eden resuming standby mode and returning to predestinated coordinates. Deleting log of Purifier First Class' correspondence as required by security ordinances. Requesting that notification to Mother be carried out by Purifier First Class present Bureaucratic Authority Zero.
Zero and Code are walking out of the ruins.
Zero: Geez Code, I've destroyed four of these Bureaucratic things, and you still haven't told me what the heck this is all about.
Code: I'll tell you when you're older.
Silence for 15 seconds.
Zero: I'm older now.
Code: Nice try.
Zero: Are you ever gonna tell me?
Code: I'll tell you..... when the time is right.
Code: (thinking) However I get the feeling that that time may come very soon.
============================================================================== Meanwhile, on ELYSIUM
Yuna has heard everything over radio.
Yuna: ...Zero?...He's.....alive?...

“Zero…he’s alive?!” The sudden turn of events were all very confusing for Yuna but there was no time to waste. “If Zero was alive then maybe he could help out. And if they were lucky, he would still have a space craft to take them off Elysium.” There was barely enough power left for Yggradasil to send a message to Terra but Yuna managed it with a little effort.
“This is Mother Unit, Yuna, of Terra. Requesting assistance of 1st class purifier Zero Omega. Yggradasil under level two battle stations. 1st class purifier unit, Zero Omega, is to report to Yggradasil for further instructions.” The main gate Zero was in, activated again, and relayed the message to all active data storage units on Terra.
