Guts:-Looks at burning Fireman-Eh I guess Ill help now.-raises fists in the air and slams it in the gorund making a earthquake wounding the navi-Me Crush Me kill!

Sam:Stop acting like Bizzaro

Guts:Yessir.Can I have a icee?

Sam:No...

Dominic: umm we have a prob fire.
Fire: *just barely dodging a swipe* where the hell are those wood chips?!
Dominic: *snickers* I don't have any chips of that sort.
BUT I can probably call Mik-hiscott, and tell him to bring over woody.
Fire: DO IT ALLREADY! I'm getting tired! *ducks over his enemy's horizantal slash*

-Meanwhile, in the locked room*
Ryan: does anyone have any extra arms on them?
Phil: I think Ed had all the guns.. All we have is tazers.
*fandango is looking along the walls of the room*
Phil: what exactly are you looking for?
Fandango: well, Numberman has informed me that there is secretpassages all through out the base. and hopefully there is one in here.
*footsteps are heard getting nearer to the room that the Vi gang is in.*
Ryan: is there any jack in port here? maybe I can find out where the hidden hallways are at.

Two PETS jack in at that moment.

Iceman EXE: He's already here. Plus some little extra help.

Woodman EXE: Looks like you guys can use some help here. Someone call for ole Woody?

Dominic: Your timing is perfect guys! Now do something!

*The enemy swipes at Ice then shocks him*

Iceman EXE: GAWWWWK! *falls down*

Gary: Nooooo....@#%$! Iceman is weak against electric attacks.

Fireman EXE: Great...

Dominic: We still have Woodman.

Fireman EXE: *continues to dodge swipes* ATTACK ALREADY!

**In the Armoury**

Wood: Hyah! Take this! *Wood towers the Colonel*

Colonel: *dodges with a quick teleport* You'll haave to do bettah than that.

Fire: Damn! Guts, Wood! Plan 13-14 alpha, now!

Guts: Uh...14-13?

Fire: Whatever! The big woody!

Wood: Figures, it's always the big woody.

Colonel:...Something tells mey Ay down't wont to know...

*Suddenly, Guts smashes the ground cracking every panel in Colonel's area, Wood distracts the Colonel with another wood tower, then Guts charges up another tremor attack and destroys every panel around Colonel, leaving him on a lone, small platform.*

Colonel:...smeg...

*Wood finishes the plan with his signature "Stump Pump" and skewers the one remaining enemy panel, and Colonel. Enemy deleted.*

Fire: Go team.

Ice: Could you sound less enthusiastic? That was a really good battle.

Fire: Hello? I'm the one-armed navi here, I can be bitter if I want. Now unlock those weapons.

Ice: Why should I do it?

Wood: Guts and I don't have the hands for it, fingers too stubby, and Fire already made his disability painfully clear.

Fire: Very painfully.

Ice: Where's Number when you need him?

Fire: He WAS in our group, but Fandango left 'cause he's a jerk.

Ice: *sigh* Well, I guess I could give it a try...

**In the locked room**

Ryan: What self-respecting room nowadays won't have a jack-in port?

Trent: You suppose those sprinklers are computer controlled?

Phil: How will we get all the way up there?

Ryan: Well, you guys could make me a human pyramid. ^_^

Phil, Trent and Fritz: *groan*


**The WWW group**

Jet: Are we there yet?

Dream: The armoury should be nearby...unless my map is wrong...

Jet: Hey, look down.

*The two look over the edge and see an important looking control sector several levels below, with 4 ant-like navis scurrying around.*

Dream: Bloody hell, how are we supposed to get down there before those backwater hackers gain control of the base?

Jet: Well, I could just fly down there, heh, see you on the other side partner!

Stone: Hey!

*Jet and Dream spin around to notice Stone, who just reassembled into his full behemoth form and has his fists hovering at maximum height above the gound, ready to bring a pile of boulders down on the other two.*

Stone: Who ya callin' backwater?

Jet: Well, compared to us you are.

Dream: uh, Jet? Zip it.

Stone: Why, who are you?

Dream: Ix-nay on the ubya-day...

Jet: How can you not recognize the infamous WWW?

Dream: >_<

Stone: O_O YOU'RE the Dream Virus!

Dream: Ah screw it, yes, I know I may have seemed un-befittingly weak to you before, but I'll make up for it, believe me. Jet?

Jet: Yessir?

Dream: Would you mind staying and helping?

Jet: But the weapons...

Dream: pleeeease?

Jet: Ugh, fine, Battle plan set...

Stone: execute! Hyah!

*Ed stands looking up at the ceiling jack*
Bomb: The horrible pain!
Ed: I don't think Elec is coming.
Bomb: What tipped you off!?
Ed: Fine, I'll send the chips you wanted...
Bomb: ...Chips received!
*Bomb shocks the water aura with a Remobit chip*
Ed: That was fast.
Bomb: I got the memo for the WWW link he was guarding.
Ed: Good, now I just need to get the data decoded...go ahead and get by the link.
Bomb: Fine.
Ed: The password for the link is...
Bomb: Ya?
Ed: Ooglybob
Bomb: o_O That's the name of Wily's stuffed bear...
Ed: I don't want to know, I don't want to know.
Bomb: Oh well.
*Bomb transmits through the WWW link into a mysterious net wasteland...full of nuclear bombs!*
Ed: HELL YA! It's time to blow some crap up!
Bomb: Teeheehee! *skips around grabbing handfuls of nuclear weapons data*

---Meanwhile---
Ryan: *looks around* Something is wrong...very wrong.
Trent: Stop moving, we're gonna drop you!
Ryan: Shaddup...something doesn't feel right. Like a madman just got his hands on destructive things.
Phil: Oh no...where'd Ed go!?

Fandango: Shutup! Can't you see I'm divining?

*At this point, Fritzy-boy was tapping on the walls with his elbow in an attempt to find a hidden passage*

Ryan: Couldn't Numberman help out....a lot?
Fritz: Not bloody likely. The silly git's addicted to Space Invaders.....
Phil: By the way, what does smag actually mean?
Fritz: If you knew, you wouldn't want to know, but if you MUST know, ask me later.....

Meanwhile:

Bomb: Okay, I'm all stocked up and ready to nuke some ass! Which way's out?
Ed:........................!

Meanwhile meanwhile:

Ice: It's locked.
Fire: How can it be locked?
Ice: Well, probably based on the bolt system of locking where a piece of metal, usually a thin-
Fire: Yes. Thankyou. Shutup. Just UNlock it, okay?
Ice: Well.....I'm not sure how.....
Guts: Ask Numberman!
Fire: In theory it'd work, but I haven't heard from him in a while and I don't know where he hangs out. "Secret location" and all that...........

Meanwhile, elsewhere....
Sam: Jack in!
Forte EXE!
GO!!
Forte EXE logs on
Forte EXE: God....this place is a mess.....and the Life Virus...wth Stone Man....and....someone else....I'd better help.
Sam: Alright then. Help Stone Man.
Forte EXE: Alright
He then runs towards Stone Man's location

In the Armory

Ice: Great...so what do we do now? Without Number, we can't get the weapons.

Fire: Maybe Dominic may know where Fandango is, and I’m sure Number’s not to far behind.

Guts: I smash door down?

Wood: That won’t be nessessary.

Guts: Damn…

Ice: Well let’s contact him so we can get those….

(A figure appears in the room)

Fire: Huh?

???: Nicely done to Colonel EXE

Guts: Who are you?

???: Colonel’s superior…General EXE!

Fire: Oh (censored)!!

General EXE: You want the weapons? I have the code to unlock it. Defeat me and it’s yours.

Wood: How can we trust members of the WWW?

General EXE: I’m a soldier. I keep my word. (And that was his final warning as he attacks the team)

Guts: (Gets swiped by the General’s sword) OUCH!

Fire: This can be tricky with only one cannon…

As for Stoneman and the Life Virus

Jet EXE: You gonna fight or just sit there?

Life Virus: I’m waiting…..tell….I power….up. Yeah.

Jet EXE: COWARD! (uses rocket chip and dashes at Stone EXE)

Stone: (Falls back)

Forte EXE: Don’t worry Stone….I’m here for back up.

Jet EXE: Damn! Another Navi! Life Virus…get in here and do something!!

**In the armoury**

Ice: Die, WWW scum!

General: Huh? I'm not WWW, I'm one of the base defenders!

Ice: Oh, i guess we never cleared that up until now.

General: 'salright.

**Up above**

Stone: This should slow you down! *makes a stone cube warp in, Dream and Jet just stare at it*

Dream: What's that supposed to do exactly?

Stone: Impede your movement of course.

Jet: But it only takes up one panel, we can just walk around it see? *they put theirselves between the cube and Stone*

Stone:....geeze, why do I even have that stupid power?

**In the roof**

Bomb: These auras ain't so hard.

*Elec finally arrives*

Elec: Did I miss anything?

Bomb: Yes, I finished them all off.

Elec: Son of a...

*Skull is seen jacking in a distance away*

Skull: Hey, what are you guys doing in the sprinklers?

Bomb: Cool, the others must be nearby.

Skull: Great, tell Ed to head in my direction, and tell him to give the others some guns when he finds them!

Forte EXE: Stupid Virus.....I oughta finish you right now
Life Virus:Like YOU can defeat me
Forte EXE: OH YEAH!!!!?*starts charging up* keep em busy Stone Man.

Stone: Um...me keep them busy? I'm not exactly the fastest...aw hell, I'll give it a try.

*Stone just keeps pounding the ground causing boulders to fall, the enemies try avoiding the avalanche. Eventually, Dream gets tired of getting rained on and grapples with Stone. While the two behemoths try to overpower eachother, Jet turns his attention to Forte, and starts to dash at him with his sabre*

Forte: No, not yet! *In a desperate attempt, throws his poncho off and into Jet's face*

Jet: Gah! What the hell?

Forte: Gotta finish this quick, can't let anybody see me uncovered...

Ed: Ok, I'm on my way.
*Ed starts jogging over to Ryan's location as fast as he can with a few ammo belts and several uzi's, AK47's, and grenades*
Bomb: Good, you keep heading towards Ryan, and Elec and I will join Skull.
Ed: Fine by me. Be sure to give him the weapons data so Ryan can view it.
Bomb: Sure.

--Meanwhile--
*Ice is still staring at the lock as Fire jumps around, dodging the energy blasts fired by General*
Fire: Will you hurry up and help me!? I only have one arm!
Ice: Yack, yack, yack!
Wood: This is going nowhere. -_-
*Wood shoots a huge tower from the ground into General's left foot.*
General: o_O Was that supposed to hurt?
*General pulls out the log and throws it at Fire*
*Fire blasts it with flames from his remaining arm, and jumps out of the way*

--Also Meanwhile--
Stone: You'll...never...win.
Dream: I...shall...crush...you!
*Stone causes an avalanche trapping himself in with Dream*
Stone: You'll recieve no outside help now.
Dream: Nor shall you.
Stone: >_<
Dream: That's MY face!

Jet: What is this thing!?
Forte: Poncho, moron.
*Jet bursts out of the poncho, and Forte jumps into the air and blasts Jet from above.*
Jet: Ah! *jets upward*
*Bass lands, and then blasts Jet from below.*
Jet: AH!

Guard: *talking to Dominic* So my girlfriend says to me...
Dominic: whoa! deja vu.
Guard: ?
Captain: You two. I was just informed of an intruder's description. Spiked brown hair, baggy pants... and a hand full of weapons. He's heading down H wing, towards I wing. I wan't you two to search for him.
Guard: yes sir.
Dominic: *to himself*(Sounds like Ed.) *outloud* yes sir.

-In Genjibo city airport-
Sanity: whew. finnaly made it!
Flight attendent: thank you for flying austria air. hope you have a nice vist. buh bye.
Sanity: Uh excuse me.. can you tell me where to find genjibo plaza?
Flight attendent: Uhhh..... buh bye.
Sanity: excuse me?
FA: this is you. "EXCUSE ME, I NEED TO dO THIS!" heres me. "BUH-BYE."
Sanity: but I just wanted
FA: buh bye.
Sanity: ... Typical. First I have to take a flight from Australia to Austria and then ANOTHER one from Austria to here, and it just so happens that these are the most unhelpful and unfriendly people on the face of the earth! Well, better get looking...

-In the digital world-
*inside Stone's little cave thingie*
Stone: its too dark to see anything in here. where is that damn virus?!
Virus: your sitting on me!!!!

*Ed runs down to the end of the hallway, with three ways to go*
Ed: I...J...K...? How many hallways do these people have!?
Bomb: Skully here says that Ryan is down hallway K, then N.
Ed: Fun, fun. -_-
*footsteps are heard*
*Ed grabs a grenade and loads an uzi*
Guard: He's in the vicinity...
Ed: NOW I'm gonna have fun!
Guard: Noise!? Intruder alert! All guards, scramble! NOW!
Ed: This will definitely be fun. *tosses grenade down hallway I at the guard*
Guard: AH!
*Ed grabs double uzis*
*guards spill from every hallway*
Ed: SAYONARA! *unleashes bullets at random and guards fall to the ground dead*
Guard1: He's got weap--*falls*
Guard2: Oh m--*falls*
Guard3: He killed Ke--*falls*
Guard4: That bas--*falls*
Guard5: Request backu--*falls*
Other guards: *falls*
*Ryan comes running around the corner*
Ryan: HOLY ****! WHAT HAPPENED!?
Ed: What? This? Just a little "accidental" incident...
Ryan: Ô.o Mind if I take some of those guns?
Ed: Not at all. I'm keepin' my double uzis though.
Ryan: I'll take an uzi and a pistol.
Ed: Ok...here, lets grab all these guards guns and ammo for the others.
*Ryan and Ed commence to grab guns*

Forte: Sam! I got an emergency!

Sam: What's wrong? Why is your video feed cut off?

Forte: I lost my poncho to the opponent, I need all the invisi chips you got, so far I've been going too fast for him to get a good look at me, but I can't keep it up forever!

Sam: Uh...why don't you want anybody to see you?

Forte: *sigh* You just don't understand all the intricacies of being a stealth navi, now gimme something to cover up!

Sam: Fine, (weirdo) Here's three Invisi3s, a Metguard, and a BodyBurn, those should keep Jet from seeing you with your pants down for a while.

Forte: Poncho. My poncho down...

Sam:...right.

**Over in the locked room, Ed and Ryan crawl out of one of the secret passages Skull found. Ed starts sharing guns.**

Fandango: Excellent, now we just have to hope we survive the shoot out.

*a battering ram can be heard pounding at the door*

Phil: Maybe if we got the element of surprise, two of you go back out the secret passage and sneak around from behind.

Sharkman: Beep beep! You've got mail!

Trent: Why did you say "beep beep"?

Shark:...shutup and read yer mail! It from the other Aussie.

Trent: Hey guys it looks like we just got more backup!

Ryan: Whatever happened to a five-person mission?

Ed: Wake up, this has gotten a lot more than just five people can handle.

*the bolts on the door start popping out*

Ryan: Ah, good point. Is there any member who HASN'T come to help yet?

All: Gauntlet.

Trent: That secretive bastard!

**Meanwhile, Elec, Bomb and Skull continue and follow an energy trail to notice a couple of battles ocuring in te distance, one several levels below, and one several levels above.**

Skull: It looks like Stone and a Fireball are fighting the WWW up there, and it looks like Fire, Wood, Guts and Ice down there fighting a big network guardian.

Elec: Maybe we should help them.

Skull: You can fly up and help Stone and whoever that fireball is, Bomb and I will try to get down there and help the others.

**On the higher level, Stone continues to grapple with Dream among their mini avalanche while Jet tries to defend himself from Forte, who activated his BodyBurn chip and is using it to do some close range fighting and give new meaning to the term "Fire Punch".**

Jet: Ah! You nearly burned me you little SOB!

Scuzzy: Here, this should cool him down. *sends an aquasword chip, Jet applies it to his sabre and starts going at Forte with a bit more effectiveness.*

Forte: Ah! My aura is fading! Can't let them see me! *activates Metguard*

Jet: Heh, you can't hide behind that thing forever, sooner or later you're going to have to let me see your secret.

Forte: *gulp* The Dream Virus already saw...I'm going to have to delete them both so they don't tell anyone...all right then...*charges up as high as he can*

Elec: Hey, need some help?

Jet: Huh?

*Elec blasts Jet with a powerful shocksending him sprawling to the ground*

Forte: Great! Now he won't see me attacking! That just leaves the Dream Virus. Elec! Close your eyes for a second!

*Elec shrugs and does so, Forte lowers his shield and unleashes his full fury on the Virus, the relentless barrage of power knocks Dream backwards, onto Stone, who's sudden shift in his awesome weight causes the edge of the platform to give way, both of them fall straight down to the crowd below*

Forte:...oops...oh well, at least my secret is safe...

**Meanwhile, down below.**

Wood: Hey do you hear something?

*the fight pauses as everyone listens to the curious sound*

Stone:aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!

CRASH!!!

*suddenly, all present experience the equivalent of a Quake50 chip as a grey and a green meteor crash into the middle of their arena, sending lose data flying everywhere. When they regain their footing, they move towards the epicenter of the blast and notice a disoriented Stoneman laying in huge crater with an offlined Dream Virus laying next to him.*

Ice: What the hell just happened?

Stone: That's... *cough* what I'd like to know. *gasp*

**Meanwhile, in the central control center of the base.**

Colonel Klink: It's no use sir, there are simply too many viruses in the system, if my navi couldn't handle 4 of them, I don't think you'll have good chances of taking on 6 of them.

General Issimo: Your lack of faith is disturbing, besides those new arrivals don't look like they're in the condition to fight.

Colonel: Sir, there have been several more detected in the system, since the shields went offline, the base has attracted all sorts of megalomaniacs trying to get the power to blow up whatever countries they want.

General: I see...so you think it's time to press the big red button? *removes glass covering a big red button that says "DO NOT PUSH" and waves his finger over it.*

Colonel: Um...with all due respect sir, I think self-destruct is a bit extreme at this point, I'd suggest ths medium sized blue button instead. *points to the blue button under plastic covering that says "Push only if you're really sure you want to"*

General: Aw, you never let me push the button, fine, we'll flush out these hackers the easy way, but not quite as easy as a nice big explosion. *removes plastic covering and presses the blue button*

Computer: You have selected the Emergency System Purge option, are you sure you want to initiate total system crash?

General: *clicks yes*

Computer: This option will cause your entire hard drive to be erased, are you sure you want to go through with it?

General: *clicks yes*

Computer: Did you make sure to download a backup copy of the system for when it's rebooted?

General: *clicks yes*

Computer: Are you really sure you want to continue?

General: grrr...*clicks yes*

Computer: Are you REEEEALLY sure?

General: Sonofa...*clicks yes*

Computer: There's still a chance to abort now, do you want to?

General: For the last time! *clicks yes* D'OH! I mean...!

Computer: All right then, you're the boss. *aborts*

General: No fair! You cheated! Bah, this could take a while...
