Morning came by quick as if the night time didn't even happen. Jun rose from his bed not even tired, though he didn't really have a good nights sleep. He rubbed his eyes a bit and stood up, walking to his usual computer chair he turned on his computer and waited it to load up.

"Mornings really suck.." Jun said having one eye closed from the brightness of his room. As soon as the computer has loaded the screen and his programs he immediately proceeded to input some info though highly classified.

What will happen in this fine morning?

Chris was still looking out the window. He'd been doing it for atleast half an hour. "Done yet?" Gnar said from the P.E.T. "It's just...I don't like the reason we're here. I'd like to just be a student, you know?" Chris replied. "Yeah..." Gnar said sadly. They hadn't had any time to do what they wanted since a year before. "Weil...I now have another mission too." Chris sighed. Life used to be fun, when he was the top NetBattler in town, Battling just for fun...But not anymore. Now he had a mission to carry out. Perhaps he would be free after he finished with it. "Check on the new Virus." Gnar flew into their HomePage, and saw the TestNavi destroying other TestNavis. "So far so good. Should happen soon." Gnar said. Then suddenly, The TestNavi's eyes went wide. "Here we are." Chris said, noting this. Then the virus broke loose. The navi fell to the ground, and was deleted. The virus deleted all the other navis too, and headed for Gnar. "Program in." Chris said. Gnar activated the device that was now on his wrist, and the virus was sucked in. He attatched it to a case, where it was turned into data and sent into a secure part of his PC. Then someone busted into his room. Benji was still out on some sort of trip, so he was the only one there. The man was huge, and had to suck below the door. "Give us the virus data and you won't get hurt." he said with a deep voice. "I'm afraid I can't do that." Chris said. The man lunged at him. Chris dodged and caught his arm. Then he threw him into the air, and jumped. He kicked the man in his stomach, sending him down to the ground quickly. He then landed on him with his foot. "Don't mess with me. You hear?" "The man ran off. but before he did, he yelled, "Thomas will be coming after you!" Chris sighed at that. He knew Thomas wouldn't hesitate to hurt him. He went back to his door and locked it.

[hitronwolf]

Hitronwolf: I should send Ed and Chris an E-mail thanking them for their help.

Cyberman: yea without them we could have been taken out.

Hitronwolf: To Ed and Chris, Thanks for the backup, you guys realy helped me and Cyberman out, and if you need any help just ask. From Hitronwolf.

Jun stopped typing and just turned off his computer screen. He unlocked his door and left his room and locked it with a key he had. He just wandered through the hallways as the bell rang for class to be in session, there were some students left that were running to class, though them being tardy was inevitable. He say down at a bench next to a class, though he didn't really care, the class was about Navi Programing.

He hunched forward and rested his elbows on his knees and just sat there without caring about what's going around him at the moment. There's not much to do in this morning, but something is going to come.

[Ace]

~Training Program Time: 17 seconds.~ "Beat our last record." Chris said happily. He wanted to see how fast he could execute the training program he set up before he set his plan in motion. "You sure you wanna do this?" Gnar said. "Gonna have to." Chris replied. He was going to find Weil, no matter what it took.

[Van]

"Meh, doesn't look like anything special." Trance said from to shadows as he watched Gnar train. "About the program you mean?" Van replied to him as he tilted back in his desk chair with a long blade of grass in his mouth. The curtains were a very dark blue so almost no light got into the room, there was just enough for Van to see where he was. "Yeah. Gnar isn't a bad fighter though. Anyways I'll send you an analysis just in case." Trance quickly sent the data he analyzed from the program Gnar used. "We've got our own program anyways. And I found a way to compact it into your right hand." Van said as he tilted back some more and took a sip of water from a bottle. "Sweet. So you want me to bug him while I'm here?" Trance just crouched there, keeping still in the shadows. Van held a pause for a moment. He put his chair back on the carpet with a thud and replied to Trance, "No there's no need." Van told him without explaining like usual. Trance gave him a puzzled look and asked, "You alright Van? You seem off balance again." "No I'm fine." Van replied to him without emotion. "Alright..." Trance said as he reappeared in his PET.

[hitronwolf]

Hitronwolf: Lets see now Room 301A, man this one's is crazy.

Cyberman: Hey Hitron, after class Dad wants us to deliver a new Prototype PET to Jun.

Hitronwolf: Yea, Scilab just can't seem to do it on their oun.

[Ace]

Gnar smirked while finishing the next level training course in fourteen seconds. Trance had thought he stole the V.A.P.I.D. Data Analyzer. Gnar had implanted fake data, and the real one was always inside him, secure. The other one was useless. He was on Van's side, for now, but this data was vital to his mission. He had almost implanted a security device into Trance to keep him from attempting theivery again, but thought that was unnecessary. "Time to put this plan in motion." Chris said. "Right." Gnar replied. He initiated a data flow, and VA.P.I.D.'s were swarmed into all of Weil's gang's computers. He could see the panic and mayhem on a special screen only seen by him. "It could be awhile before we lure him out...he might be the type that doesn't care about his 'companions'." Chris muttered.

Thomas rolled out of bed and onto the floor, painfully. He had a rough night of work. He said nothing as he formatted his P.E.T and re-uploaded Zyrois and Ryis. Ryis continued on as though nothing had happened but Zyrois was different, and confirmed it by saying, "I agree with you, Van was an idiot to plant a bug into my coding. Memory data, What a laugh."

"I know. Had he done his research like a good little boy and studied the logs in the P.E.T, he would have found that you went offline when I used the E.M.P a few days ago. The only drawback of our little 'connection'," Thomas replied. In truth, Zyrois, like the rest of the Arcana family Navis in the male side, were copies of their operators. A backup. Thomas continued, "Hm, what to do. I know two things. One, We stop hiding, and two, our little twin does want to get some exercise, maybe we should give him some."

"You forgot two things. Three, We show just who's side we are on, and four, What about Luso," Zyrois asked. Though a backup of Thomas through a chip in the back of his skull, Zyrois had a different personality, and thought differently, as per modifications by Thomas. Truth is, once Thomas dies, he would be copied into Zyrois, replacing the data in the copy right now. Other features existed that would prove useful later.

I know that this is a leap. The program has never been tested, is Ryan ready, I wonder. We'll have to start in the deepest parts of the Undernet to be safe. This will be a beta test then. Thomas thought for a moment, then began dropping V.A.P.I.D.s around the net, mainly around the school and the Undernet, to get attention. Unlike before, the V.A.P.I.D.s attacked anyone, no matter who. Zyrois appeared in the deepest part of the Undernet a few minutes later, opening a portal linking the Undernet with a location not on earth, to a satellite to be exact. From the portal, a young boy, looking like Cubia from .Hack//XXXX, walked out and looked around. He spoke quietly and shyly, as he asked, "Where am I?"

"Hello brother," Thomas said, in a sort of caring voice, " You do know-"

Ryan, the young navi, cut him off, " I know that I am nothing more than data now, and I understand that. What do you need me for, brother?"

"Hm, straight to the point, as always. You said you wanted to have a bit of fun. Well, this is your playground for now."

Ryan did not change his facial expression, as though it was frozen in place. He began walking around, muttering words that were not audible to only himself, though they did not seem to be any form of insult, he was timid almost 24/7, and it did affect him around other people. As if on cue, A large orange Navi and five of his friends appeared, two of the smaller ones charged at Zyrois, to be hit down. Two chains with a blade on the end of each one, had appeared on Ryan's back, and had attacked the two Navis. As they were hit down, two more had tried, only to meet the end of a blade from Zyrois. The remaining small orange Navi fled. With only the large one left, Zyrois smirked. The big guy spoke, "Who's side are you on, Zyrois?"

"My own, you idiot," Zyrois said as he attacked.

Without words, Thomas slotted in three battlechips, and and Zyrois drew out a sword from behind his cloak, and ran it through the large Navi, who fell promptly, "Hmph, not even a fight. The Betasword(OOC:Lifesword, the Japanese name sounds better.) might have been overkill."

Thomas simply shrugged as he jacked Zyrois out. "Ryan, please take over for me. I have one more thing to do,"

Ryan's ears perked, like a cat, "Cool, Bro, I've been wanting to have a bit of fun, and a fight would be fun, especially if more of those idiots show up. I wanted to try out my new ability."

[Ace]

(OOC: I remember the Japanese name for Lifesword being Dreamsword. Oh well.)

Gnar say the deletion of the many navis, and had been watching from the shadows Zyrois' progress. This could be good for his plan. He knew at least a thousand of Weil's navis had either been deleted or contaminated, then deleted. He then ported into Zyrois' homepage, and pressed a part of his arm. Zyrois jacked in. He seemed surprised. "So, Zyrois...who's side are you on?"

[hitronwolf]

after class...

Hitronwolf:* sees Jun* hey Jun here's the new P.E.T. prototype my Dad wanted you to try out.

Cyberman: we also herd about what happened to you guys with all those virus.

[Luso]

A suddle knock rapped on Thomas's dorm room door.

Luso stood right outside the door.

Luso: Man, was that Programming test hard or what?

Mesmero: Not at all. It was obvious that you had to give the Ace program to the engineer before you gave him the spade program. That way he'd have enough time to execute the first program while you got the second.

[Unknown Fate 전]

Jun looked up at the student and accepted the P.E.T and asked, "Why don't you test it out? Since it is your father that developed it correct? But anyways, is there a name for this new design?" The colors were plain, most P.E.T's would match those of the navis' colors like Night has Black as primary and Red as secondary. The prototype P.E.T he got was plain blue.

When he also heard that the student heard about his battle last night he asked, "How exactly did you hear about that?"

[Kyn Azleos Roya]

Thomas was sitting at the computer as he said, "Enter, Luso," Thomas did not take his eyes off the screen, as he was doing some work, "Please, have a seat. If you want any food, there should be some around here."

Zyrois smirked as Gnar stood there, "You do know you picked the worst place to stand, right Gnar?"

Ryan, smiling contently, walked around his new playground, which, via the words he muttered, turned from the normal appearance of the Undernet, seemed to be peaceful. In truth, it was a clearing in the backyard of the house he lived in before he was killed. The only variations were that it was littered with fallen navis, and that chains ran from all sorts of locations, stabbed through the bodies, sealing the area up.

Thomas had finished his work as Luso sat down, so he focused now on the guest, "What brings you here," Thomas asked. It was unusual for him to have guest, so most of Thomas' room was a mess of disks, storage drives, and computers. A single network of three monitors were what connected the 17 computers lining the wall. there were 6 others not yet set up. "I have practically two super computers here, so saving that V.A.P.I.D of yours would not be a problem, if that is indeed why you came here."

One of Ryan's chains flew through a gate in the homepage, striking Gnar in his back. Zyrois moved forward, a small screen in front of him. Zyrois selected three objects, and drew out the Betasword(OOC:It can be ether, I like betasword better. It sounds cooler,) and slashed at the stunned Gnar, "Like it. Thomas has ported his entire collection through a device allowing me to simulate the use of a battlechip being slotted in, without any operator. It is not meant for me, but for Ryan. Interesting isn't it," the betasword seared into Gnar's right shoulder, as he faced Zyrois, "I am on my own side, with my own goals. Understand?"

Not waiting for an answer, Zyrois selected three more chips, and drew out two more swords, an Air Sword and an Electric Blade, stabbing them into Gnar, one through the left shoulder, the other in through his left leg. He finally pulled out a bamboo sword and stabbed it into his right leg, then punched his gut. He smirked as Gnar grunted and fell to the ground, blades being pushed deeper into the navi, until they disappeared. The chain retracted from Gnar's back, and Zyrois began to walk away, smirking, "Don't try to attack, you should leave before I destroy you, Alright kid?"

Thomas sat staring at Luso as he answered the phone on his desk. He said nothing, and then put the phone down, "Apparently my father grounded me for misusing my brother and his abilities. Strange, because I could hit delete and he would be gone for good. Now then, if you would kindly state why you are here, though I still assume that you are here about the V.A.P.I.D your navi has, or leave, as you are wasting my time otherwise."

[Ace]

Gnar tsked. "I've seen your strategies, and I'm not here to harm you. Simply to warn you. I have a feeling someone, most likely the Van kid, it gonna try to injure Thomas or you at the most unlikely time." Gnar was floating up in the air, in his Libra form. His copy was down on the ground. "The Betasword can be useful, but don't misuse it. The underground knows of your 'betrayal', and I have been listening in to them. They plan to send assasins." After he delivered the news, he simply jacked out and removed the V.A.P.I.D. that Zyrois had thought he'd placed into him without him knowing.
