Roleplay:Going Viral

Hey all! This is my second real RP, made for some of the RP-ers who've been around here longer, and to show some of ya how it's done! Anyway...

Mass mayhem! A mysterious hacker is on the loose, stealing every piece of information they find! Even the likes of G.U.N and The Trolls have had every piece of their info stolen! But it's not just G.U.N., Trolls, or big corporations; everyone is at risk! From tactics, locations, and technology, to personal files and data of the most private sort is being stolen! Now, it's a crazy free-for-all to find not only this mysterious hacker, but also the information they've garnered. Who will find out who this hacker is? Who will get their hands on the information for their own righteous or nefarious purposes? And most importantly, whose juicy secrets will be brought to light for all to see!?

Rules
You WILL NOT:
 * 1) Troll
 * 2) Flame
 * 3) GODMOD
 * 4) Control someone else's character
 * 5) Stray off the main plot or put your character in the center of the Roleplay

Prologue
[Ryu is seen sitting in her room, typing away at her computer]

''"Dear Diary, I had an amazing dream about me and Flare. We were together at a wonderful beaching, walking along the ocean during an absolutely perfect sunset. Flare looked so... so... sexy in his black and orange trunks, while I was wearing a basic blue onesie. I felt so embarrassed looking at Flare like that, and even more self-conscious when it seemed like he was looking at me. Then, Flare suddenly stopped. I looked back at him, curious, when he suddenly grabbed my arm, and pulled me close. His arms around my waist, my body pressed against against his strong chest, I felt my cheeks burning as I looked up at him. He looked me in my eyes, smiling, and simply said, "You look so beautiful, my kitten. I love you so much..." With that, he closed his eyes and began to lean in, his lips puckered for a kiss. My face was so red, and all I could do was copy him. I leaned in, closed my eyes, and... and..."''

Ryu: *slams her laptop shut and covers her face with her hands, blushing* I can't believe I had a dream like that!! It's so embarrassing!! *groans, and opens her laptop again* Well, at least no-one can see my private diary. If anyone else, or even Flare saw this... I wouldn't be able to go on living!

[Suddenly, a low-pixel, green, long-eared cat icon appears on the center of Ryu's screen...]

Ryu: *confused expression* What the...?

[All of a sudden, the icon opens it mouth, and starts an animation equal to sucking in air. Ryu's online diary suddenly saves and closes, before being sucked into the cat's mouth. All of the other files on Ryu's desktop follow suit, all of them being swallowed up. The icon, its cheeks swollen, then suddenly disappears with a "bing!"]

Ryu: ....W-w-what just happened...?

[A few seconds later, Ryu's screen lights up, releasing sparks while the entire thing shakes violently. In a panic, she tosses it and scrambles back. Suddenly, two hands appear out of the screen, and grab the sides of it, as if the screen is an open window. Ryu leans forward a bit, curious, when all of a sudden, Statyx appears, from the waist up, out of the screen]

Statyx: 'FOUND YOU!!!!'

Ryu: GAAAAAH!!!! *jumps back, breathing quickly while clutching her chest*

Statyx: *his expression changes to confusion* Huh? Ryu!?

Ryu: S-S-Statyx!?!? What the bloody Hell are you doing here!?

Statyx: I could ask you the same thing!! What are you doing here in- *looks around* ...Your room. Which is, presumably in your house...

Ryu: Yeah! Now it's your turn to answer my question!

Statyx: Huh? Oh! Well, hold on... *pulls the lower half of his body out of Ryu's laptop, landing in a squatting position in front of her* That's better. Anyways, have you seen the news?

Ryu: Um, no, not recently.

Statyx: Oh. Well lately, a hacker's been going around stealing all kinds of information from people!

Ryu: *pupils shrink* ......What?

Statyx: Yeah. From giant corporations to the average joe, everyone's having every piece of info stolen directly from their computers!

Ryu: ......*shrieks at the top of her lungs*

Statyx: *covers his ears* WTF!?!?

Ryu: MY DIARY!!!!

Statyx: What?

Ryu: *grabs Statyx's shoulders and shakes him violently* I WAS JUST HACKED!!! MY ONLINE DIARY WAS JUST STOLEN!!!! IT HAD ALL OF MY MOST SECRET INFORMATION!!!!

Statyx: Like what!?

Ryu: ! *lets go of his shoulders, blushing deeply* Like... like... *mumbles* My dreams about Flare....

Statyx: What?

[Ryu explains the dreams she's had about Flare, involving all sorts of fantasies. When she's done, her face is flushed red, while Statyx gives her a calm stare.]

Statyx: ....That it?

Ryu: ...What?

Statyx: *shrugs* Yeah. I mean, if I counted every dream I've had about Blaze and E-

[Statyx notices Ryu's expression. She's covering her mouth and blushing, trying to muffle her giggles]

Statyx: *blushes* Moving on! Anyway, *stands up* If that weren't enough, there's some stuff the news hasn't mentioned.

Ryu: Like what?

Statyx: Like, foreign countries and even G.U.N. being hit...

Ryu: Le gasp!

Statyx: Yeah. A lot of heat has fallen on G.U.N. to fix this, so they've sent their head electrokinetic to try and find the dude, as well as the information he's got.

Ryu: *jumps up* I'm coming too!! If a single page of my diary gets out, I'll never live it down!!

Statyx: What? No way! It's way too dangerous for you-

Ryu: *grabs Statyx by the chest-fur and pulls him close, her expression livid while she snarls* I said, "I'm coming too!!"

Statyx: o_o *holds his hands up in surrender, and protection* Okay, okay, you can come as well. *thinking* Why the f*** is it that virtually every girl I know can be scary as Hell?

Part 1
Statyx: *pacing around Ryu's room* Now, how do we do this...?

Ryu: There aren't any leads on this hacker?

Statyx: Not yet. I can go into computers and try to find the virus, but when it reaches a computer and does its job, it just... vanishes!

Ryu: Hmph. We better find this little s***...

(Very loud, aggressive barking is suddenly heard.)

Statyx: What the...?

Ryu: Ah crap, I guess Hyenageddon finally sensed you.

(The door bangs open, revealing a Hyenageddon! It resembles a larger, meaner Mightyena with horns.)

Hyenageddon: *snarls at Statyx*

Statyx: ....That thing's yours, isn't it?

Ryu: Yup. [whistles sharply at Hyenageddon]

[The Pokemon's ears perk up, and he walks over to Ryu.]

Hyenageddon: Grearr?

Ryu: The green hedgehog's cool.

[Hyenageddon nods and sits down, although he continues to eye Statyx.]

Statyx: Hey dude, you should be more worried about her boyfriend sneaking in here.

Hyenageddon: *growl*

Ryu: *lip curls* You best count yourself lucky that I called off Hyenageddon.

Statyx: Yeah yeah yeah. You're the one with a journal that's who knows where on the net.

Ryu: When I find that little s***...!!

Statyx: *mumbles to self* More like if...

Ryu: [ears twitch] What was that...?!

Statyx: ....if we find the guy...

Ryu: Oh, we'll find him. We'll find him...(pulls out a PokeBall)

Statyx: Ryu, the dude's a professional. The virus gets in without any trouble, sucks up all the info, then vanishes.

Ryu: [Tosses the Pokeball]

[SFX: PWOFF]

(Out comes a Porygon-Z!)

Statyx: !?

Ryu: Meet Zebulun. He's a Porygon-Z, as you can see. Do you know what this Pokemon's specialty is?

Statyx: I dunno, looking freaky?

Zebulun: >_>

Ryu: Har-f***ing-har, Statyx. Zebby here can go into cyberspace.

(With J inside the basement of his house...)

J: [frantically typing to activate the firewalls after his profile was hacked, to no avail] Who's doing this?! [shrugs] Whoever hacked my profile is gonna regret it! [shuts down the computer and paces to think who's hacking his important profile]

(5 minutes later, he sits down to calm himself down.)

J: I don't get this... I have installed all the best and reliable security to protect my profile. How is it even possible for someone to bypass it through without knowing it...? [shrugs] Maybe if the others know about what's going on, guess this would mean I'm not the only one. [runs off from his house]

(At Sunny's house, she has just been hacked as well~)

Sunny: AUUUUUUUGH! *covers her face and goes into fetal position* What if someone finds out?! All of those secrets!!!

(Back with J...)

J: [looks at the computer screens and it's all shut down caused by a hacker] Whoa... guess I'm not the only one. Hope the others are all right... [looks around; thinking] Hacker, whenever you are at, you will regret stealing vital information, especially stealing mine!

(At Selenia's house, as she is hacked)

Selenia: *typing secret information, as the secret data disappears* What the F***?!?! What happened to the data?!?! *looks at the computer* was I hacked?! Who would steal my important information...?!?! *shuts her computer down, frustrated a bit as she thinks* ''Why would someone steal my information...?! It just doesn't make sense...''*crosses her arms, as she remembers the News report of the wild hacker* Hacker...*growls* I'm gonna kill you...with my bare hands...Or even with my sword...I'm gonna kill you...! *sighs, as she gets some of her spy gear and walks outside* I guess I have another adventure...*runs at high speeds off*

(Meanwhile, at a G.U.N base formally known as Outpost 17: Valhalla...)

???: OH NO OUR DATA IT'S GONE!

???: WHAT IS T SIMMONS?

Simmons: SARGE OUR DATA ON THE META IS GONE!

Sarge: That's IMPOSSIBLE! GRIF, DONUT, GET OUR BUTTS IN HERE!

Grif: what is it sir?

Donut: yeah

Sarge: remember that news on TV about a mysterious hacker? well HE TOOK OFF OUR DATA ON THE META!

???: REDS! WE LOST SHELIA!

Sarge: CABOOSE? WHY IS THE LOSS OF SHELIA THE END OF THE WORLD?

Caboose: Some strange hackey sack thing took thingies from shelia.....

Grif: the who and the what?

Simmons: that hacker we saw on TV stole shelia's AI from their tank

Grif: oh....

Church: guys we lost shelia and our data on agent Washington

Sarge: as did we on the meta....

Tucker: lets work together and help anyone else with this hacking problem

Sarge: YEAH!

Tex: as long as I can beat him up it's good with me

Both teams: YEAH!

(on the outskirts of Chaos City)

Gale: I AM NOT GOING TO BE HACKED (fights with the Icon until it disappears) ......................O.O AH SH*T MY ONLINE JOURNAL I CAN'T LET ANYBODY SEE IT mainly not Selenia (thinks of what would happen) *thoughts*

Selenia: WTF

Gale: uuuuuuuuuuuuh

Mazda: (pulls up a chain saw and kills Gale with it) *out of thoughts*

Gale: O.O AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

(Back with J, he was still walking around until he arrives at Sunny's house)

J: Huh... wonder what Sunny's up to... [thinking] I have a feeling she's been hacked too, but I'll find out soon enough. [sees Sunny from the window; taps window] Sunny?

(with Endac in his room in his house)

Endac: *sigh* hey hey Sulferound where are Volcragon and Blazigre


 * Sulferound deevolves AT WILL into magmutt*

Magmutt: mag? *cocks head*

Endac: heheheh funny magmutt now come on where are they

Magmutt: mag magmutt *turns and points nose at the closet*

Endac: *sigh* Pyvern and Volcub come out


 * then a small dragon like pokemon and a red and gray/black tiger cub walk out of the closet*

Endac: what am i going to do with you gu.......*hears static* huh *sits up on bed*


 * computer shows a green cat sucking in all of his data*

Endac: O_O NO, NO NO NO *runs over to computer* WHAT ARE YOU DOING


 * Cat disappears with all his secret data*

Endac: ................NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NO NO NO NO NOT MY FILES, WITH THOSE............................*whispers to himself* anyone could learn the secrets of Yultaria............with my journal someone could not onely figure out my first love life (yes he was in love and still is with some one from yultaria) but also know the coordinates to Yultaria, be able to translate Yultarian language, know the arts of yultarian battle styles, they'll know the powers of my people................O_O they'll know how to use the Yultarian Ancient Magic language to do the strongest of spells and summoning craft ever known, they'll even know how to call on the power of the Dragon-Heart AND how to find some.

Andrion: *appears* you didn't

Endac: Andrion my friend............we are the only two Yultarians on this planet, we cannot let anyone but me know how to use the Dragon-Heart.........not even our friends or my brothers know how to.................even in your hands i can't trust Dragon-Heart, cause Drakomancers are the only ones who can control the Heart twisting Power of the Stone................only drakomancers............................

Andrion: only Drakomancers what

Endac: only drakomancers..........and dragons can control Dragon-Heart

Andrion: so............what does that mean because you told me mobian dragons can't control it eith-

Endac: yes i said that but i've allowed Pyromancer and my other dragons to control it and they did fine

Andrion: so what does that mean

Endac:.................the day we went into twilight.....................when we got back.............i gave selenia a dragon.........

Andrion: which means she automatically becomes a drakomancer and the Dragon-Heart's powers are opened to her

Endac: I've gotta get the only other piece of Dragon-Heart to Selenia....................she maybe the only one who can help

Andrion: wait but why not give it to me

Endac: i told you cause regular people grow mad with the want of the power the Dragon-Heart contains................only Drakomancers with there Dragons can use the Dragon-Heart and not be driven mad with lust for the power, which makes her the only obvious choice to keep it safe, besides then she can help me make more dragons to re populate the universe with

Andrion: first of all why not just let the Dragon's Repopulate themselves and 2nd why did you even put all that info on your computer in the first place................

Endac: first of all because Egg's take for ever to hatch and second........................because Gale talked me into it, now can we please go

Andrion: *grabs his sword and Bow and other items* sure

Endac: come on you guys *returns Pyvern and Volcub and ushers Sulferound to follow* *grabs his sword and bow and his crystal of Dragon-Heart* oh hold on *grabs a key* its in a vault so I'm gonna need this now lets go

(They head into the Grendoric Pass Desert out of New Mobotropolis and head towards the yundoan forest. Meanwhile, at the residence of Meta-Fox...)

Meta-Fox: *busy typing up one of his secrets* ...and that is why I think.. *somehow disappears* oh no...MY SECRET!!!! I can't believe this...if Ming finds out I wrote a poem about her she'll KILL ME! like that time she nearly did in the pyramid accident type thing with that other guy.....but still I'M DEAD!!!!

(Within the Elemental's Mobian base, Flare and Tec were both trying in vain to stop all of their records from being removed from their system, to no avail. Flare, furious that his designs and even his diary was gone, rallied the team and left. Ronan, too, was in a rage after being hacked, and so he had Will and his people ready to hunt for this guy. Meanwhile again...in another house...)

Mira: (Playing Resident Evil 4 on her laptop)

(Suddenly, the green cat appears!)

Mira: WTF? (aims mouse pointer over cat) Never seen THAT in a Resident Evil game...

(The cat opens its mouth, and begins to suck in all of Mira's computer data!)

Mira: Hey hey hey! BAD kitty! (uses Technokinesis in an attempt to stop the cat)

(Unfortunately, it does nothing, and the cat swallows all of the computer data. Then it disappears.)

Mira: 'NOOOOOOOO!! I WAS SO CLOSE TO FINISHING THE GAME ON 'PRO' MODE, TOO!!' (stands up) I've been HAXED! Me, one of Mobius' best techno-heads, HAXED!!

(back with Meta-Fox he is pacing frantically)

Meta-Fox: I'm dead... I'm unsure where to hide.... if anything crazier happens right now I'd bescared...wait....what do you mean scared? I'm the bravest fox in olara. I CAN;T BE SCARED! :) I'll just have to accept fate if she wants to kill me.....jeez this IS like that time with emotional trauma

(in Chaos City)

Gale: Got to find that data (using a data tracker) I can't let Selenia see my Journal and the Pictures in it (runs into someone) huh oh sorry (gets up helps her up and walks away)

???: Oh thats ok (gets up) Hi Im..........................nvm (keeps walking)

Gale: That was weird (runs, following the tracker)

(Meanwhile, Flare lead a small team (Aka: Himself and Gyro) to Ryu's house to try to gather information on whether the virus had attacked her)

Gyro: Explain why I'm here, again?

Flare: You're one of my oldest friends, not to mention a girl who could divert my attention.

Gyro: Soo....

Flare: You get to meet Ryu. I get to try to back up her files externally before the virus hits

(Flare flies up to the house. Thirty seconds later, he is seen being driven off by Hyenageddon!)

Flare: BIG DOG! (Flare flies up into a tree, while Gyro laughed at him)

Gyro: Real animal magnetism, Flare.

Flare: Shut it.

???: Heheh, looks like someone's got a chunk of my bad luck.

Gyro: Wait, who said that? (Flare lets himself hang upside-down in the tree and shrugs)

[Suddenly, a small blast of electricity snaps the branch, causing both it and Flare to fall to the ground]

(Flare lands on his face. Hard. he picks himself up, but there's an obvious gash on his muzzle and a few bruises on his face. Strangely, his hair was all still in place)

Flare: Well, thank you, Statyx. I take it that was you. Wasn't me, I'm not that careless, and Gyro can't control electricity.

Statyx: *leaning on a nearby fence, smug smile* Hooray for you, you figured it out.

Flare: I take it you came here to find out about that worm/virus thing stealing data from computers. I came to backup Ryu's hard drive. I mean, having MY private stuff stolen is bad enough, but I just can't help and wonder what was on her computer, adn if I can get a new hard drive set up externally, if that'd help.

Statyx: *smug expression* How do you know I'm not here to seduce Ryu and have passionate, intimate moments with her?

Flare: Please, you have more then enough women. Toxic has more than is possible, you have a choice of two, and I don't see you complicating things by adding a third. Besides, you have to get past that... (Flare gestures a thumb at Hyenageddon)

Statyx: Then why do I have this? *holds up a pair of Ryu's panties*

(Flare visibly twitches, and Gyro cracks up laughing)

Gyro: What was it? When we're home, you act like you like me. Here, it's this Ryu chick. Now you see a chance she's disloyal, you break apart. Is that it?

Flare: Shut up, Gyro. Statyx is calling my bluff. He and Ryu are close, true, but they aren't close in THAT way.

Gyro: You forgot 'I hope'.

Statyx: *dangles Ryu's panties casually, before sniffing them, all the while wearing a calm, smug smile*

(Flare suddenly moves, reappearing directly behind Statyx with the panties in his own hand. These, he unceremoniously shoved in one of his never-ending jacket pockets. Gyro sniggers)

Gyro: He's angry. He doesn't have super speed if he isn't.

Statyx: *grinning mischeviously* My my, I can only imagine what those panties will be involved in.

(Flare facepalms as Gyro collapses, laughing outrageously)

Statyx: I'm sure Ryu will love hearing how you stuffed one of her used panties into your pocket.

(Flare growls menacingly, before disappearing, then reappearing)

Flare: There. It's in her house, where it should be. And that abomination didn't eat me, because I went while it was chasing me a few minutes ago. I love flow-walking.

Statyx: *smug smile* Oh, you put them away? *holds out his hand, dangling the same pair of panties directly in Flare's face* Then what are these? C'mon, you know you wanna take a whiff...

Flare: I...have...control...of...my...instincts...

Gyro: Riiight, but you don't control your senses.

Flare: I knew I should have brought the Ryu look-alike.

Statyx: Aaaaand, the final trigger. *drops the panties smack-dab onto Flare's nose*

(Flare drops like a sack of potatoes, seemingly unconscious. Gyro cracks right up)

Gyro: Nice one. He's never been able to control his sense of smell or some of his impulses. That's just made his brain melt, in a way. His final safety. Of course, he's also fantasizing, because the smell that made him drop is the smell that he has locked in his mind. Perfect.

Statyx: *snickers, then leans over Flare* Hey Flash, what's Ryu wearing right now?

(Flare doesn't respond verbally, but his eyes were darting around behind his eyelids, and he didn't get up. Gyro seemed nonplussed.)

Gyro: Wait for it......now!

(Flare suddenly sits up, his pupils in strange shapes)

Flare: WOAH! That was a rush! I saw Ryu, in a bikini, walking down the beach, then...(Flare looks towards Gyro and Statyx, embarrassed) well, I don't to detail that. Statyx, I should be thanking you. But I'll think of a suitable revenge.

Statyx: You'll be thinking of how to kill me after this. *grabs Ryu's panties, pulls open Flare's pants, and stuff Ryu's panties inside, letting the pants snap back into place*


 * (Kagi: Pervy variant of a classic XD)

(Flare instantly reaches for one of his his swords and gets ready to attack, before a sudden blur leaves him with another gash. Gyro returned the dagger she had just slashed him with to a hidden sheath)

Gyro: We have to work together, boys. I also want to learn some of those sleight of hand tricks, so I can try them on some of the others...like Mitch.

(Hyenageddon watched the entire scene with a look of disgust. Apparently he didn't think too highly of two strange males playing with his master's panties. Just then, the front door bangs open, revealing Zebulun and a very angry looking Ryu.)

Ryu: WHERE THE HELL IS MY UNDERWEAR?!

Hyenageddon: O_O"

Zebulun: ...

Ryu: *distorted voice* ANSWER ME!

Statyx: *looks at Flare, and gives him a mischievous grin before pointing at him* Flare has them.

Ryu: FLARE!! WHY DO YOU HAVE MY UNDERWEAR?!

Flare: Blame Statyx. It's just not in my personality to steal anyone's underwear, especially yours.

Gyro: Yeah, riight.

Flare: Gyro, not now.

Statyx: *holds up both hands* I don't have any undies in my hands. *mischievous grin* Now, show her where her panties are Flare.


 * (Kagi: Dun have him pull anything. The idea is for him to shamefully pull the panties out of his pants, sending Ryu into a knuckles-red flush, followed by a coma.)

(Flare sighs, resigned to his fate)

Flare: This isn't what it looks like... (Flare reaches into his pants and pulls out her underwear)

Statyx: >:D

Gyro: Oh, crud, I forgot the magic cocktail.

Ryu: O///O (Ryu, blushing as red as Knuckles' fur, faints)

(Zebulun and Hyenageddon gasp. Flare turns bright red as well, glaring at Statyx, before he realizes what Gyro said)

Flare: YOU WHAT???

Statyx: Magic cocktail?

Flare: Last resort. Basically, members of the Elementals can become intangible, unable to be struck by things that can't affect them. I'm not one. All Elementals with that issue take a cocktail of chemicals and hormones at the age of 15, which gives us 8 "regenerations" of sorts. Basically, if we go to die, we enter a battle rage where we reach maximum power for 5 minutes, then after that we have 20 minutes to regenerate, at the cost of 10% of our body becoming scar tissue. If we die while regenerating, then we're toast. The "magic cocktail" is a trick to cancel the regen, giving us another 5 minutes of power and then leaving us like before. However, without it... (Flare shrugs) I've already regenerated twice. 24% scar tissue. I've only got six more regens left in me, and I'm planning on fighting until then.

Gyro: And I kind of left it at base. Sorry.

Flare: No matter, we're not likely to be in a situation where we'll have to fight for a while.

Statyx: *mutters to self* Sounds like my hyper form...


 * (Kagi: Note, Hyper Statyx is a secret.)

Flare: Sorry, did you say something? I think we should wake Ryu...and I should be atop a building when we do. (Flare's stance suggests fear as he looks at Ryu,before bending down and picking her up, moving her inside her house and laying her on her bed for more comfort. Hyenageddon and Zebulun follow him inside. Upon lying her down, Flare steps back, a sign of respect for her personal space)

Ryu: ..........

Statyx: Atop a building? More like back in Australia.


 * (Done, Kagi - Flash)

Flare: I doubt even being there is far enough...I think I'll spend some time in my forge. She's unpracticed in flow-walking, so that might be able to be a shield for me. (Flare starts to appear washed out as he flow-walks, but Gyro remains)

Gyro: Meh, this isn't my issue. Finding that hacker is.

Statyx: Lately it seems that this hacker is everyone's problem...

Gyro: Yeah. Scuttlebutt has it that even the Trolls got hacked. And Eggman. And all the different governments and paramilitary groups. And private citizens. I'm just wondering if it's a hacker at all. What if it's a worm? A data-consuming virus, as it were.

Statyx: Dunno; it's my job to find out. But I promised Ryu she could come, and I'm not gonna risk breaking that promise. So... *sits down* we wait for now...

Gyro: Oh boy...waiting... I'm going to go for a jog. (Gyro turns and starts running outside)

Part 2
(back at valhalla)

Sarge: ya ready simmons?

Simmons: yeah *all are nside some aircraft or as they call it, a pelican*

Grif: I forgot how to drive this thing, good thing it's a rental

Sarge: remember that electric dude we saw before coming back here? lets ask him about progress


 * (Twist:Kagi, do NOT be mad I wanna see if statyx can argue with sarge)

(At the Frozen Egg base in Ice cap)

Pixel: you we're hacked too ehh.

Sledge: Yea, i don't really care about most of the data, except the stuff about me id prefer that not getting out.

Pixel: i had some important data stolen as well, most was just game data and co'ordinate's for the airship, however some rather special schematic's were also taken.

Sledge: And you prefer they don't end up on the black market or somethin?

Pixel: Bingo.

(with Endac and Andrion in a cave)

Endac: there's the vault right over there (points at the cave wall)

Andrion: all i see is a dial

Endac: yeah i know (turns dial back and forth till he hears a click) there


 * door opens to reveal a small square orange opaque jewel on the ground of the vault and behind it is a barrier*

Endac: the barrier *goes over to it and deactivates it*

Andron: *picks up the jewel* wow.............the power

Endac: *turns around angrily* put it down before your corrupted andrion!

Andrion: O_O ok ok *drops the stone*

Endac: come on *walks into the inner vault* where is it

Andrion: where is what?

Endac: Dragon-Bane

Andrion: your sword.............its destroyed remember

Endac: that was a replica.................Dragon-Heart is to strong to be destroyed by a chaos slash............only the death of the connected dragon can destroy it and pyromancer is to good to die

Pyro: death..................hmph impossible for me

Endac: here *picks up a sheath with glowing rays of light coming from the botom*.............it's still alive

Andrion: alright you pocket the tone and blade and come on

Endac: *puts the blade in it's sheath belt and grabs the stone* lets go find selenia

(with Gale)

Gale: UGH (stops looking in a box) I have to find info on whoeer took my data (thinks) maybe i need more help, more people helping to find their data (looks around) *sighs* well then thats that (runs to go find anybody who will work with him) It would be best to start with my friends like Ryu (runs off)

(in the Dragdon Cliff Range)

Shadow: *peaceful sigh* beautyful veiw aye Dusk

Dusk: yeah great veiw

ORION: hey Shadow my Trackers are telling me that somthing is hacking my system

Shadow: O_O what what are you talking about

Duak: i thought your system was un hackable

ORION:................

Shadow: Orion...........ORION............SH*T what do we do now? all my info, my data,..............O_O our location...

Dusk: bro i see heavy fire coming our way DUCK


 * Dusk pushes Shadow down fast enough to dodge a Energy blast from a incoming Fighter plane*

Dusk: run bro!!!

Shadow: go now go

(on the plane)

Pralon:................DAM IT

(over intercom): PRALON GET YOUR SLIMEY TIGER DRAGON BASTURD HALFBREED A** UP ON THE BRIDGE

(on the Bridge)

Pralon: master Tyrofiend............they got away before i could get a good--

Tyrofiend: i was watching i know what happened from here you incompitent fool

Pralon: but sir they moved i needed a better shot

Tyrofiend: TORRAN GET UP HERE

Torran: yes master

Tyrofiend: go do what your brother couldn't do AND BE SUCCESFULL or else i'm going to kill both of you and hire some Eggman Robos GOT IT

Torran: yes sir

(with Cedric)

Cedric: Torran hy are you helping Tyrofiend anyway

Torran: because Pralon is our older brother so he takes prestige over you

Cedric: still you can't help them..........eh wants to kill Endac and it's our mission to help them and the others

Torran: then i can't do what Tyrofiend wants

Cedric: why

Torran: he wants me to kill Shadow and Dusk

(with meta-fox angered like he wasn;t angered in his entire life)

Meta-Fox: I WILL KILL THE PERSON WHO WILL SOMEHOW MAKE MY POEM PUBLIC...and I shall do that BEFORE I GET KILLED'

(and some reason he gets a phone call)

Meta-Fox: *gets the pone* yeah?

Sarge: meta-fox, we need your help

Meta-Fox: whatever dude, I helped you the time tex beat us up and that didn;t work well for me or twister....at all

Sarge: well we need your help on the hacker thingy

Meta-Fox: IT'S MY REPUTATION I NEED TO SAVE, SAVE YOUR OWN TEAM -_-' *hangs up*

(few hours later with simmons and grif)

Simmons: *trying to scare grif for sarge* hey grif...

Grif: yeah?

Simmons: *takes a bomb disguised as a bottle of pills* PILLS HERE!

Grif: PILLS! YEAH! *runs behind a van* grabbing pills....wait...this aint pills....AHHHHHHHHHHHH *throws the bomb elsewhere*

Simmons: oh my gosh that scared your pants off grif! *laughing*

Grif: ha ha very funny simmons, NEVER pull a pills prank on me...or as louis says "IT'S A B**** APOCALYPSE! NOW B****"

Both: *laugh and hi-five eachother*

Sarge: guys....pill bomb prank....NOW! *holds another pill disguised bomb and they somehow throw it far enough to met's front door*

Meta-Fox: huh? *sees the pills* PILLS HERE *throws it in the air and it falls back down* dang! *throws it across the sky and it blows up in mid-flight* phew....

(Meanwhile, Mira is walking down the sidewalk, with a Shiny Porygon-Z following her. The Pokemon is also wearing headphones and has a pink bow tied around its tail, almost as if it's meant to be a female...)

Mira: I don't get it, Kilobyte. Who could hack me, one of the best tech-heads on Mobius? Who would even WANT to?!

Kilobyte: Gon...

Part 3
(It's 3:19 PM, and TTCable servers are under attack! Sylvia is in a room, typing in her online diary and reviewing customer data, when a green cat appears.)

Sylvia: What the...?

(The icon suddenly sucks in everything. No matter how hard Sylvia tries, it continues to take in personal info.)

Sylvia: DANG IT!!!

Scooter: So what's going on?

Sylvia: Someone is..(shows Scooter the EMEL computer screen with the green cat, sucking in everything)...stealing ALL of our private data!

Scooter: Oh. That's not good.

Sylvia: Even the AntiVirus software doesn't work on this hacker!

Scooter: I don't think Tails fixed EVERY patch, then....

(Meanwhile, back at Ryu's house...)

Statyx: *still waiting, twirling around Ryu's pen in the air with his electrokinesis to pass the time*

(Gyro returned, stood still for about thirty seconds, then started running again)

Statyx: Yo uhh, Gyro, was it? Where's the chicken in wolf's clothing? Still hiding from the soon coming fury greater than Hell's?

(Gyro stops and looks at Statyx)

Gyro: Flare? Oh, yeah, defiantly hiding in his forge. Probably making weapons too, knowing him. He can't stop working with his hands or doing something, even writing entire stories in his mind then typing them up or writing them.

Statyx: "Can't stop working with his hand"? *smiles jokingly* Are you intentionally giving me more material?

Gyro: Sorry! Super speed, so I say what I think before I can process it. Still, if he's not fiddling with something, he's writing, typing, making or breaking things, thinking, doing SOMETHING. I just have to move a lot, and I can be loud without knowing it. Still... (Gyro shrugs) I don't try to get any of my friends in trouble or made the butt of a joke on purpose, it just happens.

Statyx: I hear that.

(Then, Ryu starts to wake up.)

Ryu: Ugh...

Statyx: ! Bout freakin time. Yo Flare!! You have some 'splaining to do!!

Gyro: Want me to go get him? He can't hear us.

Statyx: Please do. On an unrelated note, I just remembered that Justin wants a custom-made weapon. Could you mention that too?

Gyro: Happily. (Gyro closed her eyes and disappeared, flow-walking nearly twice as fast as Flare did normally. A few seconds later, she reappeared, dragging Flare)

Flare: Ow. Ow. OW! Gyro! Careful! I think you've started ripping my fur out!

Gyro: Well, I'm sorry you don't like pain.

Flare: Most pain I can take. This is torture! (Flare realizes where they are) Oh, boy. She's started waking up, hasn't she.

Statyx: *nods* Get ready my amigo.

(Flare glares at Gyro)

Flare: Traitor.

Gyro: Oh, suck it up!

Statyx: Also, Justin's calling in your debt; he's got a customized weapon he wants you to make for him.

(Flare's ears perk up and he smiles)

Flare: Really? Well, give Gyro the details and I'll get to work on it straight away. (Flare starts to flow-walk away, but Gyro grabs him and pulls him out)

Gyro: No easy way out for you!

Flare: What did I ever do to you, Gyro?

Gyro: Obsess over me before you hooked up with this Ryu chick, for one.

Flare: I did not!

Ryu: (Sits up) What happened...?

Statyx: You fainted after finding out Flare was hiding your used panties in his boxers.

Flare: I can explain! Honest!

Ryu: Yes, please do...

Flare: Well, there was this hacker, and I came here with Gyro to try to stop your data from being stolen, but we found Statyx here with your panties, and when I tried to take them from him and put them back, he shoved them down my pants, and that's when you showed up.

Ryu: ............. (looks at Statyx)

Statyx: Funny how you didn't mention falling like a sack of potatoes when they were covering your nose, presumably having a wet dream about Ryu.

(Flare's hand instantly flies to one of his swords, and the muscles in his mouth bunch together in frustration)

Ryu: You had them first, so YOU are guilty, Statyx!

Statyx: 1: *points at Flare* He had the dirty fantasies. 2: You really wanna kill the electrokinetic with the best chance of finding the stolen data, including your-

(Flare cuts Statyx off, thinking he was going to mention his journal, including his thoughts on Ryu)

Flare: Agreed. We need to work together, not kill one of the guys with the skills to find him. I can trace, but I can't travel as fast as he can.

Ryu: Fine...but keep the perverted jokes to yourself, Statyx!

Statyx: Fine.

[Suddenly, all of Ryu's panties fly towards Flare, and cling to every part of his body, even his face and crotch, held there via static cling.]

Statyx: Pranks, however, were never mentioned.

Ryu: (Grabs Statyx's chest fur) NO PRANKS EITHER!!

(Flare closes his eyes, and the panties all fly off, back to where they had been before)

Flare: I might not be at your level with it, but electrokinesis is one of my strengths.

Statyx: *calmly holding his hands up in surrender* Alright, alright.

Gyro: Well, while we're standing around, the hacker might have broken into a few hundred more houses and personal computers. Can we get a move on?

Flare: Sorry, forgot you always HAVE to be doing something.

Statyx: And you're always working with your hands. *snickers*

Hyenageddon: (Warning growl)

Flare: If you mean I'm always moving them, then yeah. Otherwise... (Flare's fingers start tapping a pattern on the hilt of his sword unconsciously)

Statyx: Okay, now I'm done.

Gyro: If everyone else is finished, LET'S DO SOMETHING!

Statyx: Geez she's a hyper one.

Flare: Yeah. Never stops moving, even when asleep. Not that she sleeps very often. At least she's not...well...like Mitch.

Statyx: ADHD?

Flare: Who, Gyro? Nah, she's got super-speed, and it carries through to her personality. Mitch, well, if he's not doing something stupid, he's doing a random chick, or watching adult content...he's gone into meltdown. Everything of his, gone. All his records, his notes on Elemental Healing, all his different plans and other things...gone.

Statyx: Ouch.

Flare: Indeed. He's hunting for this guy with a few of the others.

Statyx: *rolls eyes* The length people go for their porn.

Hyenageddon/Zebulun: *chuckling*

Statyx: Oh please, I'm sure you have no right to judge, Zubulun, I believe the name was? With your capabilities I'm sure you've looked at plenty of images such as those.

Zebulun: (Bonks Statyx on the head) {"I've seen, yes, but that doesn't mean I ENJOYED it, you green fool!"} 

Ryu: It's true. He actually wrecked a porn website once. Loaded it with viruses. The whole site's gone now.

Statyx: Really? Then could he do the world a favor and obliterate 4chan?

Hyenageddon: {"Gyurgh!! That place has a .GIF of someone stomping a kitty to death!!"} D:

Zebulun: {"Destroying 4chan sounds like fun..."} >:3

Statyx: Good to hear. Oh and, a little tip.

Zebulun: ?

Statyx: *points at Zebulun and gives him a small shock, which actually knocks him right out* When you're something that deals with technology and cyberspace and whatnot, don't mess with an electrokinetic.

Ryu: Statyx!!

Zebulun: @_@

Flare: Not cool. Also, in that short amount of time, Gyro's decided to run up onto the roof out of boredom.

Statyx: What? It was payback.

Flare: For what? Destroying the site, or hitting you?

Statyx: Hitting me. It was also to prove a point.

(Zebulun gets back up, furious, and zooms at Statyx, only to be held back by Hyenageddon.)

Zebulun: {"Lemme at 'im, lemme at 'im!! I'll have his guts for garters!! I'll Tri Attack him so hard he'll be burnt to a crisp, frozen solid AND fully paralyzed!!"}

Hyenageddon: {"Let it go, Zeb. He's not worth it."}

Statyx: Says the dog who didn't even know I was in the house until 5 minutes later.

Hyenageddon: *MSG Alert Noise* !

Ryu: *facepalm* Statyx, are you ASKING to have one of your limbs torn off?

Statyx: I have a compulsive need to speak my honest opinion; sue me.

Hyenageddon: {"Well how was I supposed to know you'd be coming out of her bloody laptop?!"}

Statyx: Shows how good a guard dog you are.

Hyenageddon: *snarls* {"How DARE you?!"}

Statyx: *throws a small static bolt, which doesn't harm Hyenageddon, but does make his fur puff out every which way, as if from static cling*

Hyenageddon: !!

(Flare instantly flickers with a burst of blue energy, and his hair starts to spike itself slightly more as he removes the static electricity from Hyenageddon and absorbs it into himself)

Hyenageddon: ?

(Flare grimaces as he puts effort into removing the electricity and seems to glow, but Hyenageddon's fur returned to normal)

Flare: Didn't we say no pranks, Statyx?

Statyx: Self-defense; he was about to attack.

Flare: Correction - appeared to be about to attack. I doubt Ryu's Pokes are that uncontrollable that they would attack you without her say-so. No offense, Ryu.

Ryu: None taken.

Statyx: Regardless, shouldn't we get going? Oh and Ryu?

Ryu: What?

Statyx: Let go of my chestfur!! You're starting to pull some of it out.

Ryu: Whoops. (lets go) Sorry.

Statyx: Thank you.

Part 4
(with the reds now driving in their jeep as their unforgettable driving theme is playing)

Sarge: well guys lets hope we can at least kill someone who is responsible for deleting us from command

Simmons: same on the blues though

Sarge: yeah...so lets hope we can find some assistance quick.....and find that weire....green guy who likes zapping donut.....

Grif: I love it when that happens to donut...it makes me laugh!

(Meanwhile, Emeraldsbourg software, telecommunications, credit card, transportation and e-commerce companies struggle to find a patch, but can't seem to get any solutions. Some governments even called emergency meetings...)

Parkview Mayor: I don't know what this virus does...but we know that it takes personal data from computers. This is a major technological and security risk.

(City council members and "honored guests" nod in agreement.)

Parkview Mayor: Our best bet is to shut off all internet service to residents until this problem is solved.

Councilman: But sir, what if the virus gets through intranets too?

Parkview Mayor: That will be up to IT managers...and officials. Plus, shutting off internet service will be up to ISPs and telecommunications companies.

(on pixel's airship)

Sledge: you sure that Porygon-x of your's will find this hacker?

Pixel: i ain't totally certain, but it's the best chance we have.

Pixel's Metagross: meta.

Pixel's cybeon: *nod's in agreement*

Sledge: if you say so.

(Back at the town hall meeting)

???: Perhaps I could be of assistance?

Mayor: What's the catch?

???: There is a hefty price...

Mayor: Name your price, then.

???: M 938 Billion. Plus, I cannot guarantee a solution OR a patch.

(Everyone gasps)

Mayor: M 938 Billion for an EFFORT?

???: It's either this or nothing.

Mayor: Sorry, but I will not waste almost 1 Trillion Mobiums on one effort.

???: Well, I can offer some advice, though...someone ELSE is looking for a solution. G.U.N..

(The crowd gasps; it's been 30 years since they last heard about "G.U.N.")

Darkness: hmm sorry if i am inturupting but.. G.U.N. and I have personal issues... and if G.U.N. is something your going to go after. count me in.. i want to kill the person who ripped me and stuck me with metalic arm's and wings and legs!

Mayor: No sir, we don't have issues with G.U.N. If we did, our electrical systems would be destroyed by now. We just want what's best for our country.

Darkness: i can help figure out if G.U.N is the cause for any disturbance.

Mayor: You can, but it will be solo. We will not provide any formal support. Anyway..(turns back to crowd)..all in favor of the Internet Protection Ordinance say "I".

(About 79% of the crowd say "I".)

Mayor: All who oppose, say "nay".

(The rest say "nay".)

Mayor: Motion passes.

(agin with the reds)

Sarge: hey simmons, wanna drop a funny prank at meta's?

Grif: I already did that sir :)

Sarge: nice

(then suddenly sarge's cellphone rang*

Sarge: hello?

Meta-Fox: YOUR NOT GONNA GET MY SUPPORT SARGE! *hangs up*

Sarge: wow.....that was creepy.....

Part 5
''In Hunter County, all ISPs were ordered to shut down their internet services until further notice. Companies were advised to shut down all intranet as well. Mobile phone providers were advised to do the same.''

Some Random Person: HEY?! Where's my internet??

(The webpage says, "Hello. Your ISP, Burnaby Communications, has been ordered by the county government to shut down internet access until further notice, as a matter of national security.")

R.P.: *snarls, but when he reads further down....*

("In response, your service will be free until the end of the lockdown. Thank you for your patience.")

R.P.: *smiles*

Eventually, firewalls and filters started going up....

(Back with Statyx, Ryu, Flare, Gyro and Ryu's two Pokemon, Statyx is waiting outside Ryu's house...)

Statyx: *tapping his foot* C'mon people! You almost ready to go?

Ryu: (From inside) Hold your horses, man!

Statyx: I'm able to move at the speed of sound on foot and the speed of light through electronics; I like to relax, but being kept waiting is quite the opposite!

Ryu: Okay I'm ready. [walks outside]

[A rather irate looking Zebulun is floating after her. Hyenageddon is back in his Pokeball. Flare follows them out, and Gyro performs a rather stunning triple backflip as she jumps down to join them.]

Statyx: Geez, why was I waiting outside while you two got ready?

Flare: Because you chose to?

Statyx: Actually, someone threatened to sick her Pokémon on me if I took a step inside.

Ryu: And I had damn good reason to.

Statyx: Riiiight....

Ryu: *cough*Pervert*cough*

Statyx: *zaps Ryu lightly on the butt, without looking at her*

Ryu: !! *hiss* [throws a punch at Statyx]

Statyx: *ducks, followed by sweep-kicking Ryu, then pushing up on her back as she falls, lightly tossing her towards Flare*

Ryu: AAAAHH!!

(Flare catches Ryu lightly, before nodding to Gyro, who launched a blistering combo of strikes on Statyx)

Statyx: Whoa! *creates a Thunder Shield to block* Hey, Ryu started it by calling me a pervert!

Ryu: Well you are for stealing my underwear!!

Flare: And you move the fight into something physical, so it's just as much your fault. (Flare nods to Gyro again, and she stops)

Statyx: I zapped her. She threw the first punch. I dodged and countered, while making sure you caught her.

Ryu: You shouldn't have zapped my butt then!!

Statyx: Who called me a pervert?

Ryu: (Jumps out of Flare's arms and leaps at Statyx) THAT'S NO F***ING EXCUSE!!

Statyx: *snaps his fingers, freezing Ryu in place with Chaos Control*

Ryu: !!

Statyx: Sorry Ryu, but the pervert remark wasn't needed. Much less was trying to punch me for a zap the equivalent of static cling.

Ryu: I f***ing hate you, you arrogant little-!!

Statyx: ...... *snaps his fingers, unfreezing Ryu and letting her fall to the ground. He turns and starts walking away*

Ryu: Uhn!! (gets up) Yeah, walk away, Mr. Ass-Zapper!! You just think you can treat people however the f*** you f***ing want to, and do whatever the f*** you want, just because you're oh-so powerful!! WELL I DON'T NEED YOUR FUCKING HELP!! ZEBULUN AND I WILL DO THIS OURSELVES!! *panting* [shaking in pure fury and humiliation]

Statyx: *stops, then turns and looks at her. The look in his eye is mixed with both anger, and hurt*

Ryu: ..........

(Flare and Gyro stand still in shock.)

Statyx: *chaos controls away*

Ryu: ........................... *thinking* What have I done?!

Flare: Well, that could have gone better......and now we've hit a bit of a problem. Statyx had all the information we needed to find, so we're back to square one...I'm going to find my own path, I think. (Flare nodded to Gyro) You two, call me if you need my help, and I'll be there straight away, but for now, I'm going to find Mitch and Siobhan's team. Siobhan can do the same electronic transport thing as Statyx, maybe she's found something.

(But Ryu is walking away, hanging her head in shame...)

Ryu: *thinking* How could I have said those horrible things...?! I'm such a stupid, hot-headed moron!!

(She puts both hands in her hair, pulling on it.)

Flare: Gyro, stay with her. Call me if you need help, like I said. Get into her head, try to understand WHY.

Gyro: ARE you going to Mitch's team?

Flare: Maybe, but first I need to see if I can figure out where I stand in this team after what just happened. I might send someone out here to help you.

(But Ryu is already gone...)

Ryu: *thinking* I deserve to have all of my secrets shown to the public for the way I treated Statyx...!!

(Gyro runs after Ryu as Flare takes off in a burst of flame. Ryu doesn't notice Gyro as she comes into a skidding stop straight in front of Ryu)

Gyro: Where are you going?

Ryu: .....what's it matter? I f***ed up all hope of stopping the hacker...

Gyro: You made a mistake? Wow, stop the world, a mistake's been made. LOOK AT YOURSELF! Drove off one of your best friends. Got your boyfriend hiding from the world! It took me and Siobhan MONTHS to turn him back to normal last time he was like this, and then he got you. Wonder what's going through his head right now? You make a mistake and then decide to mope around instead of doing something proactive to fix the problem? That's not good, but there's still hope. Everyone has contacts they can turn to in order to do something, maybe some of yours can help you find Statyx and make things better with him, or find the hacker.

Ryu: I'll probably just f*** things up worse, seeing how much of a dumb-@$$ I am...

Gyro: Flare wouldn't go out with you if you were THAT much of a dumb-@$$.

Ryu: ..............

Gyro: I would tell a tale, but I can't be bothered trying to break through the mope-cloud around you.

Ryu: Then don't. I guess I'll go see if Statyx will accept my apology...but I doubt it....

Gyro: As long as you try, then I'm sure Flare wouldn't care what method you use to get through to him.

Ryu: I guess not...

Gyro: See? Now you are starting to see...

Ryu: *shrug* [keeps walking]

Zebulun: ............

(A few minutes later...)

Zebulun: [Catches up with Ryu] {"Hey, wait! Ryu!"}

Ryu: ?

Zebulun: {"Look, I know you want to try an' set things straight with Green Fo-...err I mean Statyx, but if he's too much of an @$$ to accept your apology, then don't get all upset about it; his loss for being stubborn."}

Ryu: Thanks, Zeb......but given the way I treated him, I'd probably deserve it if he refused my apology...

Zebulun: {"No, no, no, that's not true! Sure, maybe the punching thing was a bit too far, but you were upset! Everyone's upset and on edge because of this mystery hacker! And...forgive me for saying this out loud, but he didn't have to zap your butt. All of us know by now how much you hate being touched there; that moss-green Sonic recolor 'demonstrated' plenty of times..."}

Ryu: He's strong enough to kill me in an instant; you don't defy people like that.

Zebulun: {"That's not an excuse, Ryu. You could have said 'Hey, don't zap me there'. S'not like he'd say 'F*** what you say' and do it again..."}

Ryu: It isn't about that.

Zebulun: {"Then what is it? Do you think you're inferior to him or something, and so you think he can act how he pleases towards you?"}

Ryu: N-No, it isn't that! We usually get along great......but now.....*sigh* It's just my damnable bad temper got in the way, that's all.

Zebulun: {"And one more thing, while I'm at it; you don't deserve to have all your personal information made public just because of your temper."}

Ryu: Thanks...

Zebulun: {"Huggsies!"} [hugs Ryu]

[She happily hugs back.]

Ryu: Well...[lets go]....guess we should keep going....

Zebulun: {"Yeah..."}

(with the blues and reds now currently trying to find info of the hacker)

Church: ya sure we gonna find him here guys?

Grif: we're sure.....besides....it was simmon's idea too

Simmons: *gorwls at grif*

Sarge: the plan is, we make a guided rocket and we tie everyone to a rope and we fly in direction of the rocket and it turns by itself, if we find any info we'll be there in the nick of time!

(Back with Ryu and Zebulun...)

Ryu: (Sees someone in the distance) Wait....

(They go up closer. It's Statyx.)

Ryu: (Hesitates) .......

Statyx: *sitting on a branch in a tree*

Ryu: (Cautiously approaches) S-Statyx...?

Statyx: ?

Ryu: I.......I wanted to apologize to you......

Statyx: ..........

Ryu: I-It was wrong of me to call you a pervert and try to punch you...I...I should have just let it go...

Statyx: ..............

Ryu: I shouldn't have yelled at you....and I do need your help. I'll never be able to find the hacker without you.....but I was too stupid and selfish to see that! [puts head in hands] I was too selfish to even think about anything else except myself!!

Statyx: ...........

Ryu: ............

Zebulun: {"Well, looks like he's not gonna accept it, even though you honestly poured your heart out. Let's get back to the others."}

Statyx: It's called thinking, Zeppelin.

Zebulun: {"It's Zebulun."} -_-"

Ryu: ................. *sigh* [looks away] Why even bother? I don't deserve forgiveness......

Statyx: ......I don't recall saying that....

Ryu: You didn't have to say it....

Statyx: Are you a mind-reader?

'Ryu: N-No...!!

Statyx: Then how do you know I think you don't deserve to be forgiven?

Ryu: I........I........

Statyx: ?

Ryu: (Looks down, ashamed) I don't...

Statyx: Then what makes you think you don't deserve forgiveness?

Ryu: B-But....but I was s-s-so horrible t-to you...!!

Statyx: Not really "horrible".

Ryu: Then what would you call it?

Statyx: "Short-tempered", "pissy", "harsh"; not "horrible" though.

Ryu: ............

Statyx: ?

Ryu: Basically, in short, I was a b****.

Statyx: Tiny bit, yeah.

Ryu: (Sits down and puts her head in her hands)

Statyx: In other words, enough to warrant an apology... *jumps down* But not enough to lose a friend over.

(Ryu looks up at Statyx in disbelief.)

Statyx: A word to the wise, Ryu: "hate" is a very powerful word...

Ryu: I-I know...[looks away] I-I'm s-so sorry....

Statyx: It's alright, though I'd suggest counseling and plenty of dates with Flare to help curb that temper.

Ryu: (Starts crying)

Statyx: !?

Ryu: *sobbing* I-I should be p-punished for my temper, n-not helped...!!

Statyx: Ryu, quit sobbing! Friends help each other, not punish them.

Zebulun: (Looks at Ryu with mingled sympathy and pity; he then looks at Statyx) {"...depression sucks, doesn't it?"}

Statyx: Believe me, I know.

Zebulun: {"What's even sadder is that what she's thinking actually makes sense in a way; 'don't reward bad behavior, punish it'."}

Statyx: Are you gonna help me stop her sobbing, or am I gonna have to zap you again?

Zebulun: *sigh* {"You're not even listening to me, ar-....oh forget it."}

(He flies down next to Ryu and hugs her.)

Statyx: I'm just saying, agreeing with her while she's like this doesn't help.

Zebulun: {"Then what do you suggest we do, Sigmund Freud? Get a therapist?"}

Statyx: I don't know; I just know that agreeing with her when she's like this doesn't help.

Zebulun: {"Maybe some rest will help her?"}

Statyx: Maybe...

Zebulun: {"Okay."}

Part 6
(now with meta-fox busy running frantically)

Meta-Fox: I'm gonna run for the rest of my life I guess....lets hope I die the way I want...in honor....

(suddenly something rockets past)

Reds and Blues: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Meta-Fox: *bumps into them and is inside the huge cluster* AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! YOU GUYS ARE NUTS!

Church; WHO CARES WE'RE STOPPING THIS FREAKING HACKER AND THIS IS HOW WE HAD IT PLANNED!

Grif: *screaming* THIS WAS ALL YOUR FAULT CHURCH!

Meta-Fox: IF I SURVIVE I'M GOING TO GUT YOUR CORPSES AND MOUNT YOUR HEADS ON THE WALL ABOVE MY FIREPLACE!

Sarge:' YOUR LUCKY THIS WAY WE'LL QUICKLY BEAT EVERYONE ELSE TRYING TO FIND THIS HACKER ANYWAYS!

Meta-Fox: OH WHAT THE EHCK IL'LL HELP YOU, BUT IF MY POEM GOES OUT I'M MURDERING YOU

Reds and Blues: OKAY!

Meta-Fox: *thoughts* I bet no one else is gonna beat us anyways

Reds and Blues: OKAY!

Meta-Fox: OKAY! AND UP WE GO!

(the rocket ascends upward as the group ascends to the sky in search of the hacker)

Caboose: I CAN SEE MY BASE FROM HERE! :D

All: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[Meanwhile, Statyx is suddenly painfully shocked]

Statyx: GAHH!!

Zebulun: ?!

(This saps Ryu out of her sob-session.)

Ryu: W-What the...?!

???: STAAAAAAATYYYYYYX!!!!!

Statyx: *groans, both in pain and frustration* Oh no, not her of all people...

Zebulun: {"Who now?"}

[A yellow rabbit wearing a blue and white tank-top, grey shorts, aquamarine shoes, white gloves, and azure eyes is standing in front of the trio, obviously fuming]

???: GIVE IT BACK RIGHT NOW!!!

Zebulun: {"I am confus."}

???: GIVE IT BACK!!! G.U.N. STOLE IT!!! *forms what seems to be a bubble in her hand, and throws it at Statyx*

Statyx: YIPE!! *dodges*

Zebilun: !

Statyx: Tawny!! Be careful with those things!!

Tawny: GIVE IT BACK!!!! *throws several more bubbles*

Statyx: Wahh!! *dives behind Zebulun and Ryu*

Ryu: !!

Zebulun: {"Oh, use us as shields. Nice."}

Statyx: Bubbles are water. Water is a conductor. I touch water, I get shocked, badly. She controls bubbles, so...

Zebulun: {"Fine, I'll talk to her."}

(He flies over to Tawny.)

Zebulun: {"Hi, excuse me. What exactly did G.U.N 'take' from you?"}

Tawny: *grabs Zebulun's head and pulls it close to her face* They took the coordinates to the now abandoned ship I was raised on, which I stupidly stored on my computer!! Now GIVE IT BACK!!!!

Zebulun: {"I don't have it! I don't even serve G.U.N!"}

Tawny: Then get out of my way!!

Zebulun: ._." {"Y-Yes ma'am!"} (flies away from her)

Statyx: *still hiding behind Ryu* Oh yeah, great help!

Zebulun: {"What did you want me to do?!"}

Statyx: Something! I can't fight her!!

Tawny: *growls* STAAAAAATTYYYYYYX!!!

Zebulun: {"Look, he didn't take whatever it is you're looking for!"}

Tawny: How do you know!?!?

Zebulun: {"Because he's helping my Trainer, as well as her friends, look for stolen computer files!"}

Tawny: Huh??

Zebulun: {"Yes! This strange green pixel-cat appeared on hers and others' computers and stole all their data!"}

Tawny: o___o!! Um.... so that thing wasn't from G.U.N?

Statyx: G.U.N. was hit too; what do you think!?

Tawny: .....Oopsie...

Ryu: ...........

Statyx: *brow twitches; to himself* "Oopsie" she says...

Zebulun: {"Errrr........okay, then...."}

Ryu: ...........

Tawny: Um.... Sorry. *scratches the back of her head, sticking her tongue out* ^^;

(Gyro, from boredom, was sitting on the roof of a building almost a kilometer away)

Statyx: Resist.... urge... to make.... cooked.... rabbit...!!

Zebulun: {"Oh, NOW you're not afraid of her."}

Statyx: *gives Zebulun a frightening and angry look* The stronger my emotions get, the stronger my powers get; I'm pissed off right now, so you really wanna mess with me?

Zebulun: {"Geez, calm down..."}

Ryu: *whimper* [skitters away]

Tawny: ? Who is she and what's with her?

Statyx: She's Ryushu the Cat, and she's not really feeling herself.

Zebulun: {"That's an understatement."}

Tawny: ....Is she another girl who has the hots for you?

Statyx: *shoots up* WHAT!?!?!?

Zebulun: {"Uhh....bye!"} [flies off after Ryu]

Statyx: *growls* She is NOT!!

Tawny: Oh. So it's only Blaze and E-

[Statyx Chaos Controls in front of her, and covers her mouth with his hand]

Tawny: !!!

Statyx: Tawny, would you mind terribly if we got back on track, instead of talking about my love-life? Or do I have to electrocute you?

Tawny: *muffled* Back on track please.

Statyx: Good choice.

(Gyro dashes down, covering the distance in under a minute. Ryu has already fled, followed by Zebulun.)

Statyx: *notices Ryu run; groans* Tawny, stay here.

Tawny: But-!

Statyx: *serious glare* Stay. Here.

Tawny: ._.; Okay.

Statyx: *Chaos Controls away*

Part 7
(back with meta,reds,and blues, they are flying swiftly along)

All: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Grif: WE'RE GONNA FREAKING DIE!

(With Ryu...)

Ryu: [Still running] ._."

Zebulun: {"Awwww, c'mon, I thought you and the green dude made up!"}

(A Sonicboom is heard, and Gyro suddenly appears next to a tree, nearby)

Gyro: Hey, wait up!

[Ryu ignores Gyro and keeps going]

Ryu: Anger bad, anger bad, anger bad! ._."

[Statyx Chaos Controls in front of Ryu]

Ryu: *frightened yelp* [falls over onto her butt]

Statyx: There you are.

Ryu: [Cowering away]

Statyx: *sighs, focuses electricity to his finger, and pokes Ryu with the same finger, lightly zapping her*

Ryu: Hey! [pushes his finger away] Why'd you poke me?! DX

Statyx: Hallelujah, she's back.

Ryu: Wut? Where did I go?

Statyx: Uhhhh.... well, sort of "out of it".

Zebulun: *nods*

Ryu: Oh snap, I didn't forget my pills today, did I?!

Statyx: ....What?

Zebulun: {"No, you didn't forget your pills."}

Ryu: Oh thank Arceus.

Statyx: *facepalms, cursing in various languages* Point is, you're back to your old self.

Ryu: Okay.

(On Pixel's airship)

Pixel: perhap's it's best to split up. it may enable us to reach this hacker quicker when we discover there location.

Sledge: you think so? a'right, lend me some transport.

Pixel: Ok, Ride on Eagun. Is that fine with you.

Eagun: *nod's*

Sledge: A'right let's fly!

(Then, Ryu's phone begins to beep, indicating she has a message)

Ryu: Uhh...[answers cellphone] Hi?

Statyx: *groans* What now?

Kyle: (over phone) Put your phone on the ground and step back for a sec.

Ryu: ....... [does so]

(Meanwhile, Flare is seen in his forge, holding a short dagger.)

Flare: For honor! For strength! For love! (With each short sentence, he inflicts another gash into a different part of his body. He dropped the dagger, and stood, allowing Soaker's powerful painkillers and healing enhancers knock him out and leave him to heal the wounds of his body, and allow his psyche to heal the wounds of his heart)


 * (Kagi: ......Wut?)
 * (Flare blames himself. He's simply taking it out the way I never would, because he's got superpowers and can heal almost any wound. I can't, logically - Flash)
 * (Kagi: *scratches head* Uh-huh. And instead of taking a pain-inflicting route, why didn't he just chase after her and try to help her?)
 * (Because Flare and I share majority of my personality. I wouldn't run and try to help, I try to stop it from happening in the first place. Failing that, I blame myself for the mistakes that happened, and shut everyone else out. Flare's just taking that to the next level. - Flash)
 * (Kagi: Ah.)

Isaiah: Stupid hackers... I HATE malware!

(Back with Ryu and Statyx... A stream of black binary leaks out of the phone onto the ground, and forms into Kyle. A VERY ANGREH Kyle.)

Kyle: SOMEONE HACKED MY COMPUTER.

Ryu: Join the club. >.>

Kyle: You don't understand. Someone hacked my computer. I can turn my computer on from another planet and hack anyone's computer with my mind. I've got better firewalls than G.U.N have in their dreams. And someone hacked it! ...I'm impressed.

Ryu: Well that same hacker's got my private journal.

Isaiah: *Opens laptop*

Trojan: HAHA!

Isaiah: FUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
