"This isn't working too well!" Ness cried as Omedramon struggled to
stay airborne.
[Oh yeah that's right... your wings are still mostly clipped from the last encounter when you got bitch-blasted by the MDC. :P]
"Well, i'll try something new!"
code:
DIGIMODIFY_
Digimodify!
Omega
Heal Activate!
With that, Omedramon's wings were
healed.
[Well, it was derpy while it lasted, folks. >.>]
"That worked!" Ness cried. Banana Kid decided to check out a
digivice to see how digimodifying works.
"If I change the wave frequency,
i may be able to make the effects work on humans..."
["I predict this will be a great invention that will benefit all of mankind. Nothing can possibly go wrong!" o.o]

DWGM was speeding off towards Dalaam at an alarming speed. He had
been growing more and more powerful, due to the radiation coming from the
Sanctuaries he'd been visiting. Without a Sound Stone, his body was absorbing
power from them. He was now truly a force to be wreckoned with.
[Not only really lucky, but now really strong eh? Geez, no need to rub it in. x.x]
"Hmm,
what's this? I feel something coming towards me. Something weak... It's that
Omedramon guy!"
["Something weak..." oh... BURN. XP]
Surely enough, with his health restored, Omedramon was
going to try a head on assault.
[Because you know, that tactic always works in shonen stories, or any real life event for that matter. :P]
"You won't get away this time,
DoomWereGrowlithmon!"
"Oh, I see, you're going to try and stop me. Well
the spider has become the fly! Time to say goodnight!"
["Would you like your complimentary night-light of horror and doom with your goodnight-beating?" :P]
A single swipe
sent Omedramon face first into the street of Fourside. Once again, his wings
were mutilated and bloody. Pain wracked his digital body. DWGM flew off out of
sight, presumably still on his path to Dalaam.
[Welp, there goes Omedramon's healing ability... ZXD's vitriol at PP was at it's all time high here I believe. :P]
Banana Kid had by now
produced a small item for use on humans. He decided now would be a good time for
a test. The device shook wildly, like a washing machine at the cleaners.
However, it soon sputtered, coughed and exploded in his face.
"Well,
looks like this is going to be impossible..."
["That device was going to cure AIDS and then it was going to also cure World Hunger, and it was also going to cure our energy crisis... and" blah blah... >.>
Yeah, Zero and Plasma just absolutely adored each other's company. XD]

Fortunately for DWGM, they'd never catch up with him, what with
Omedramon's flight still heavily damaged from the attack on the Nomad, which in
itself was a dumb idea. And how lucky could he get?
[Look, we already established the poor tool has a lot more luck than he should. No need to rub it in. :P]
He had already found five
spots of power! Giant Step, Lilliput Steps, Milky Well, Rainy Circle and Magnet
Hill! But from there, locations were a mystery.
A gut feeling told him
that he had gone backwards from Winters. So why not go to the far east? Dalaam,
yes... sounded very promising. Even the name had a powerful sound to
it.
[Dalaam... I don't know if that's really true... it more reminds me of the Dahli-Lama than a powerful place. >.>]
Back in Threed, Bob finally pointed something out to Zac.
"You
know, I do have a motorcycle."
"You have a motorcycle? Where in the world
did you... say, Bob... is that motorcycle LEGALLY yours?"
["What's 'legally' mean?" Bob asked innocently. :P]
Bob smiled his
insane little smile.
"Legal? There's no law like no law!"
[Well the world is frozen in time, and Glenn did probably pilfer a lot of stuff to make his Darksaber, so why can't Bob have a little fun with a motorcycle? :P]
"...
right. Well, I suppose you could ride it. If anyone else can't keep up, you can
try to ride on with Bob."
["...if he doesn't try to murder you horribly that is." XP]
With that, Bob ran back to the complex and
fired up the motorcycle.
-------------
Back on the Nomad...
"Hmm... this is very
interesting..." said Jamar. "I put my hand in this ray of energy from the five
spots DWGM has found already, and I feel stronger. I also see things from my
youth."
["And it's made me realize how damn pointless half my life's been, Eric. Is this experiment really worth it in the end?" :P]
"Really sir?"
"Yes. But it seems to send an unfinished
song through my mind at the same time. Like a bad Spacester
download."
[lol, music piracy jokes ahoy, captain! XP]
Eric looked at him.
"Spacester? I thought the Supreme
Court of Gamma 12 outlawed it."
"Pishaw. Beta 37 did that. And they're
far on the other end of the universe from us!"
["Screw Beta 37 and their facist dictatorship laws. We're out for freedom to steal, plunder and pillage all we want, be it resources from planets, or free music off the space-internet!" XD]
"If you say
so."
Nole was busy in the back, jamming to Alpha Quadrant's newest hit
single, "Your Zalquog Makes my 3rd Heart Fail to Function," which he'd recently
snatched of Spacester.
[See, even jealous, egosentric pricks like Nole know what the gig is... >.>]
At the same time, he was going over the developing
readout of Sandra. It was making his head spin.
"Wow, this is
incredible."
That's all he could manage. The sheer awe that came over him
when he read it forbade him from doing any kind of evil monologue.
[And that's not good thing... whether for him, or for the ACs, we'll have to stay tuned to find out, though. :P]

Zac spun around at the familiar voice. Don't do anything
rash... Zac said to himself as his anger level started to rise at her
presense.
[For a saiya-jin, especially the brasher of two brothers, Zac is handling this a lot better than I'd expect. I guess maybe that's why he did all that training earlier to flush out his excess anger about Crypha. o.o]
"May I ask you a question?" Zac looked towards
Crypha.
"I guess so."
"Why do you chase after Bob?"
["Because I've come to fancy myself a nice Bobsicle... Why do you ask? Do you also like Bobsicles? I can share some if you want me too!" o.O]
She
giggled. "Because he's so silly!"
Zac sweatdropped.
"Right..."
["It's also because I have a crush on him, twinkletoes." :P]
"But, do you know why Bob runs from me?"
"The only
thing I can think of is when you go to hug him, you shock him every time. I
don't think he likes that."
[Geez, you don't say, Zac? :P]
"Oh. Are you saying that I'm hurting
Bob?"
"Possibly."
"Oh well. He can take it!"
["Yep he can, ok love you, goodbye!" XD]
"See ya later,
Crypha." Zac turned and started walking in the direction that Bob ran off. He
put up a hand, waving almost.
As Zac rounded the corner, Bob pulled him
aside.
"Did she follow you?"
"No..."
["Then she's up to something... I just know it..." >_> <.<]
"Okay, then let's go
before she notices..." Bob grabbed Zac's arm and ran as fast as he could out of
the complex. Kyle saw the two leave, so he got up and ran after
them.
"So, where do we go from here?" Kyle asked Zac.
["We go to the zoo, Kyle! There's a nice exhibit on shapeshifting pigs there." XD]
"I don't
really know. I think that if we fly around for a little and use the orb we got
to home in on the others, then we might find another one."
"Excuse me,
but I can't fly!" Bob shouted.
[Yeah, you know fair point. Sandra can probably move really fast and probably jump a good distance, but poor Bob, he can't even do basic flight. :P]
"I can't either, but I can jump really
high."
[Sandra might be interested in challenging you to a high-jump competition now. Now look what you got yourself into, Kyle. <.<]
"Let's just start by looking in Twoson or Onett," Zac suggested.
The three started walking towards the Two-Three Tunnel.
[More adventures await in the "The Chronicles of Zac, Bob and Kyle: The Oddballs Out!" :P]

"Done!" Banana kid finished the dragon radar. "Need anything else?
I've got a Pencil Creator, an Eraser Creator, an Automatic Banana Peeler, and
Automatic Underwear!"
["I also have a Black Hole Nullifier, a Chamber of Spirit and Time Mark IV, a portable Phase Distorter 4, a Multi Purpose Utility System, and that's just my short list!" :P]
"Why don't you just come along? You're the only one
who knows how to work them. We could use all the help we can get!" Canemon
said.
["Oh come on Canemon, anyone can operate the Multi Purpose Utility System. It's just a watch on your arm and..." :P]
"Good idea. C'mon, Banana Kid!" Ness called. Soon, they were taking
off on Omedramon.
"Strange...one of the balls is moving...we'd better
check it out..." So, they set off to the drqagon ball and, unknowingly, to
DoomWereGrowlithmon.
[Omedramon WILL get some blood, dammit. He will... >_<]
[Also, some of those devices I annotated above, like the Multi Purpose Utility System (MPUS) are actually concepts of MINE for things like either 'The Misfits' or one of my lesser known stories. I won't go into more detail on them though. Obviously they have no relevance in Frozen. :P]

(OK, i'm introducing another AC. I hope Nappamon isn't counted as
one, because he's basically part of the package.)
[Uh oh... this could skirt the line over the "2 ACs only" rule. I have a feeling this is going to lead to some problems. <.<]
"So, how are we gonna
find these Dragon Ball thingies?" Ness asked.
"Yeah. I'm a genius, but i
don't know the first thing about these." Dave said.
[Gee really, Dave? Where was that genius when you derpy-mcgees were fighting Pictos? :P]
"Relax. I know
someone as good as Apple Kid, Jeff, or Dr. Andonuts." Johnny said, and led them
back to Autumns, to a strange yellow house. Johnny opened the door.
"Hey
Banana Kid!"
[Wut? Another 'fruit kid'? Really? ¬_¬ Oh this is just asking for some conflicts between him and some of the others. I can see it now. :P
ALSO. How is the flying fudgebasket is 'Banana Kid' not frozen either? I mean at least most of the OTHER characters explain it for their circumstances. But without Glenn or Sandra around, there's no way to reverse the time freeze's effects, so Banana Kid would have to have been unfrozen from the get-go. <.<]
A kid wearing a yellow outfit and a yellow baseball cap
walked out. "Yeah?"
Johnny tossed him the dragon ball. "Make a device to
track down these!"
"Neat! My pleasure!" so Banana Kid set to work on a
dragon radar.
[Great, so a Bulma analouge who's actually based off the naming theme of Orange and Apple Kid? Why not just have us unfreeze one or both of them? I mean yeah.. Orange Kid's research is mostly pointless, and Apple Kid is a bit of a slob, but at least they had established roles in Earthbound and...
Oh just ignore me... I guess I'm just reflecting on this and realizing how redundant some of this sounded. I don't mean any serious offense to PlasmaPenguin here, just I'm sure there could've been a less... "egotistic" way to do this, as that's the vibe I was getting from this I guess. ._.]
EDIT: Sorry! I fixed it. I didn't mean to glory-hog or
brag...
[LOL. Yeah... there's definately contention between ZXD and PP here... I don't know if the original post was oozing of even more ego than this version did or not, but something about it did not please our resident 'IF Punisher' at all. :P]

(That's a good fellow.)
[*Pats PP on the head* "Who's a good little egoist, who's a good little egoist?" XD]
Bob was slouched over in a closet.
Sweat was stinging his eyes. His clothes looked as though they were just thrown
in a lake.
[Gods, now this is starting to just look pity-inducing for poor Bob. Crypha, calm down girl... give him some time to breath and rest before getting your damn Bobsicles! :P]
"Man, when will she give up?" he muttered, feeling as though
he could die of exhaustion any minute. "I am Happy Bob the Homicidal Maniac.
Noone can catch me!"
[Um... I know at least four characters, not even including Crypha or Sandra who could prove you wrong on that front, Bob. :P]
"I think that's an overstatement, Bob..." said a
voice from outside the door.
[Yeah exactly what I just and... wait wut? Where the hell did you come from?! O_o;]
Bob felt a twitch in his eye. He suddenly
broke down.
"No! No! Leave me alone! I'm too young to die!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!"
[I can't help but both laugh and pity the pool fool. x_.]
The door opened and he crawled back into the corner.
It looked like this was it.
"Bob, what's up with you?" said a familiar
voice.
"Wait a second, you're not Crypha!"
["No Bob, I'm your conscience... duh!" :P]
"No, I'm Zac. I heard
all the racket you were making, running down the hall screaming, 'She's coming!
She's coming! Save me!' so I came to investigate." he said, annoyance clear in
his tone.
[LOL. Yeah, you are making a lot of noise and ruckus in Zac's home, he does have the right to check it out and stuff. <.<]
Bob blinked.
"Oops. Must not have realized how much I
was screaming."
[Gee, ya think? XP]
"Yeah, you must not have..." said Zac. "Say, have you
seen Sandra, Paula, Poo, Nebi-"
"Yeah. Yeah, I've seen Sandra. Said they
were going to Winters to help Jeff see his Dad and to Scaraba to find Mr.
Everdred."
["...sorry... I'm just a bit... agitiated at being made to play messenger... and all that..." :(]
Bob shuddered at the thought of Scaraba. He remembered its
miserable heat back from the Giygas War. It was agonizing for him to walk around
in that heat. And the way his Camel seemed to try to escape him at every
turn...
[Because surely it knew you weren't planning to feed it to a Dread Skelpion if they attacked you, right? <.<]
"Oh, I see. Well, we're going to go find the Dragon Balls,
hopefully bringing Brett back from the dead."
["You know, the usual shonen-anime style subplots and all that jazz." XD]
Bob felt a chilling air
slowly seeping from something behind him.
[His fear? His gas? o.O]
"That's great! Uh, can I come
along?" he said, his head over his shoulder, seeing the blue mist getting
thicker every second.
[Oh yeah, the herald of Bobsicles cometh. :P]
Zac stared over his shoulder, trying to see what it
was that bugged him so much.
"Sure, why not Bob? We could use a few more
good people."
["...heck, maybe a former murderer could be useful for finding the nooks and crannies we wouldn't expect to look for." :P]
"Great, thanks, gotta go now, you know how it is and all,
bye!"
With that, Bob fled with great zest down the hall in the opposite
direction.
"Now where did he get off to in such a hurry?" questioned
Zac.
"Oh, I don't know. Boys are so strange." said Crypha, now fully
reformed.
[Oh boy... this is only described as an awkward meeting about to happen. o.o]

Oh a lighter note: I have noticed a trend among my posts. Early on, I posted a lot... almost every time someone else posted anything really that had story content, but over time, I started to space out my posting where I don't completely choke off everyone with my post content.
Turns out yeah I had reasons for that, reasons I'll need to explain later when it becomes more relevant. I'm not totally looking forward to explaining myself, but... I owe it to myself and some others to do so eventually. >.>]

Nole had other ideas though as well. He has recently scanned
through the memories of Nebiroth, who had still had a Memory Scanner attached to
his head.
[Oh boy... I guess it was time I finally utilized the memory scanner plot-angle somewhere. This might be a doozy, folks. >_>]
Nole wanted to be the one to personally scan the large demonoid's
memory. He had many beliefs that Nebiroth was the largest part of the resistance
team's power, and without him they would be signifcantly weakened.
[Well... I'd say honestly he makes up at least 1/10 to 1/9 of the group's total power, but then again... I forget some of the powers of the other ACs like GMOE off hand... :P]
He had no
idea that he would learn of the things he did: Nebiroth was definately NOT
native to Earth, as the memories clearly told him, but he was native to a world
of Phantoms, Demons, Ghosts, Goblins, etc, etc.
[Spoooooooooooky.... o.o]
Nebiroth's memories included
that he had many friends: one being another being similar to him in look and
size, but with red clothing and without a crown and greyish skin [Austorouto], another being
a large samurai-like Ice Golem that could hurl his claws like boomerrangs [Freon], a
large 3 headed dragon beast with different elemental properties [Hydra], which Nole
found out to actually be exactly identical with the same one that had attacked
ChaosGallentmon before.
[How he exactly knows about that little detail yet... I don't know. I'm sure he'll eventually see said battle through the memory scanners, but they don't show things out of order, you know. >.>]
He also saw memories of accquintances of Nebiroth, not
necessarily friends, but allies none the less. One was a large Cocktrice,
another was a large Barnacle/Sponge hybrid that could use the sea to hover
herself near the surface and attack foes before submerging, another being a
large mongolian-death-worm/centepede hybrid, and finally, memories of a giant
blue skinned being trimmed in gold, and with a whie beard like Nebiroth's.
[Yeah... big blue guy here is actually Sardius, Nebiroth's boss-man. More on him... eventually? I guess? :P]
He
then saw more memories, including the one of Nebiroth watching the battle unfold
between what appeared to be a clone of him and the pink-haired girl with him
now, who soon after beating the clone had gone in and destroyed the large blue
being, but not without much difficulty.
[Yeah, we'll learn more about the circumstances of Sandra vs. Sardius soon enough folks... it'll be read out in painful detail. However, some of what happens might actually surprise you a bit at first. :P]
It was then he realized the girl
and Nebiroth were not of this world, and it was merely coincidence such powerful
foes had come to them at a time.
[A pretty friggin bad coincidence don't you say, Nole? :P]
However Nole didn't know the truth of Sandra
actually being native to Earth and missing for 10 years.
[And I don't think he ever does learn that, as the memory scanner isn't going to be able to show her memories from her Earth days due to it's limitations. XP]
However, Nole now had
enough data on Nebiroth to start preparing himself for the giant green-skinned
demonoid. Now it was time to scan the one girl's memory, he thought, since the
two were somehow connected via Nebiroth's
memories...
[Oh boy... I hope you have a strong heart, Nole... I really do... prick or not, I still pity you for what you and your 'friends' on the Nomad are getting into. <.<]
*****
Thunder filled the air of Winters as the group
of Paula, Jeff, Poo, Sandra, Nebiroth, and now Everdred as well boomed into the
area and landed in front of Stonehenge. Poo had been able to make his
teleporting more efficant in the recent months and could actually teleport to
almost exactly the area he was thinking of, as long as it was outside, of
course.
[Yeah, I suppose someone who trains his skills all the time would find a way to more perfect the ol teleport skill. :P]
Jeff said, "I think we'd better hurry to the lab." Sandra however, had
been looking around Winters and Stonehenge, marveling its' sights, when she saw
it... an all too familar object, lying there in the snow.
[If it's another damn dragonball, I swear I'll...]
She ran up to it, and
lifted it from the frozen snow, revealing it was the slightly damage Ultra
Statis Array that ChaosGallentmon and DWGM had attacked everyone with back in
the complex.
[OH. Well that's a more... pleasent surprise. XP]
She knew it was the same one because she remembered the design
layers, and when she shot and froze Chaos with it before ending his existance
with a Flare spell.
[Yeah, aka the one time you truly took matters into your own hands as far as killing or fighting a major enemy, despite how damn powerful you are. :P]
"Wait Jeff! I think THIS can be very useful to us if you can
fix it up." Sandra called, showing Jeff the ultra statis array. Jeff's eyes
could've litten up like christmas lights as the sight of it.
[OH GODS. Jeff's description could not be any closer to the truth right now. I could only imagine have a controlled device that freeze anything in time he shoots. The Nomad is in for a nasty surprise I bet. >:D]
"Yes. I was always
wanted to make a weapon that could do such thing, but also smaller. Thanks
Sandra." "Your welcome." she said with a small ^_^, and a very hard to notice
blush.
[GOD, the ^_^ returns again! I thought I was done with those... ._.;]
Things had been happening for Sandra in those times, and oddly enough,
Sandra seemed to be a little attached to Jeff since she had met him. It wasn't
as much as love as it was a friend, because Jeff didn't seem like a big
love-type person at the time.
[Okay yeah... this was alluding to a possible love-triangle I had set up. In some original drafts of some of my... other and older stories... Sandra gained feelings for Jeff instead of someone else [i.e. Bob], and I wanted to give off an allusion to that, not that anyone else reading would get the reference of course, but it was for my own sake more than anything. Nothing comes of this... I promise you. :P]
However, all moments end sometime, and with
that the group continued south to the lab of Jeff's father, Dr. Andonuts, and
proceeded inside. Sandra also neglected to notice something float from
Nebiroth's beard, and onto the back of her suit, the memory scanner...
[Oh boy... well I know what my next post is gonna mostly be about... so be prepared in advance for that folks. Be prepared... @_@]

Bob was cowering in a bush. He was shaking hard. It wouldn't take Crypha long to find him at this rate. He looked around for some kind of fast transport. It seemed Crypha would catch him. That was, until the motorcycle caught his eye.
"A motorcycle! Whee!"
[More of Bob's desire to be a wild and crazy soul, so course he drifts to stealing a motorcycle. :P]
Bob lunged out of the bushes, landing a foot short of the motorcycle. He simply stood up, dusted himself off and snuck closer to the motorcycle.
"Well hey, I'm no Aerrol Flynn."
[Don't know him personally, but from what I looked up on Errol Flynn, he was born in the late 1900s and was somewhat instrumental in the action-adventure movie genre. I don't really keep up on old movie actors, so that's the extent of my knowledge. :P]
His eyes suddenly shimmered. It wasn't because the keys were in the ignition, not at all. He had spotted the motorcycle hat hanging on the throttle. He simply put his fedorah in his pocket and put the biker hat on. It was a good fit.
[Bob lookin' snappy, cuz. XP]
Crypha was still looking around where Bob had been previously. She didn't have the slightest clue about where he was. And then, she heard the yells of Bob.
[Way to clue her to where you are, you loudmouth. >.>]
"Start you piece of junk! Start!" he cursed the motorcycle, attempting to turn the key as hard as he could. "Geez, Sandra makes this stuff look easy!"
[lolwut? Sandra never rode a vehicle in her life, Bob! Hell I'm not even sure she was on Earth long enough to know what a motorcycle is. :P]
Crypha's eyes lit up.
"There you are!"
["I want my Bobsicles! I want them, I want them, I want them!!" o.O]
Bob's heart skipped a beat. He turned back the the ignition, adrenaline pumping. With much effort, the key finally broke free of the freeze and turned. The engine turned and quickly fired.
"Ha haaaaa! It worked! Chalk up another one for meeeeeeeeeeeee..." he shouted, as his voice faded into the distance.
[And promptly screamed in terror as he nearly smashed into a telephone pole on the way out. <.<]
Crypha shook her head, a smile still on her face.
"When will that boy learn... You can't escape from Crypha!"
[That boy will never learn, my dear. XD]
Bob was by now heading towards Threed, speeds nearing 100. The telephone poles looked like a picket fence. He thought he was seeing spots; the lines on the road just looked like dots. He had flames coming out of the side of that motorcycle.
[I actually know exactly were ZXD took this description from. A song known as "Hotrod Lincoln" by George Thoroughood. Your usual 'dude who loves high-speed car-rides impresses/scares-the-crap-out-of his friends and gets pulled over by the cops, etc, etc...' it's catchy though, I'll give it that. <.<]
"Wow, this baby sure is fast! Hey, I wonder what's on TV right now?"
[Pretty sure it's still the same frame of Dukes of Hazzard that you last saw when you woke up, considering the damn world is still 98% frozen. :P]
Bob's thoughts now focused on what would be on TV right now. If it hadn't been, he'd have noticed the blue speck in the distance behind him gradually growing. Obviously Crypha had taken her vitamins today.
[That's putting it lightly. He's moving over 100MPH, and she can still easily keep up... probably isn't even winded. O_O]
"Bob, guess whooooo...?" she called from behind him, a girlish giggle following.
He turned and faced her. Surely enough, she was right behind him. Bob was really gonna need to gun it. He pushed that throttle as far forwards as it would go. The motorcycle inched away from Crypha.
["110... 120... 130... 145 MPH!! Go bike, go!!" XD]
And then he saw the complex, a blazing structure nearing him at what seemed to be the speed of sound. Bob applied the brakes hard. The rubber from the those tires left a skid thirty feet long.
[Wait wait wait... he went at that speed and it took him that long to get from Polestar Preschool to the complex? I can understand that he didn't consider the sewers due to the adrenaline rush of trying to escape Crypha's Bobsicle obsession, but I doubt he'd need THAT much time at 100-150MPH to get there. >_>;]
And then he simply left the hat behind on his new motorcycle, put his fedorah back on and rushed inside. He had to escape Crypha's infatuation. So in he went, deeper and deeper, half of the time having no clue where he was going. Finally Bob came to rest in a bathroom in a locked stall.
[Can't forget that classy-ass fedora can you, Bob? I swear that thing's gonna get you into it so badly some day. <.<]
"Whew... finally."
And then, he felt a slight chill coming from a vent overhead.
"... Oh no. Oh nononono..."
["Oh yes... oh yesyesyes..." :D]
And out came Crypha.
[DUN DUN DUNN!!]
"Well Bob, I've caught you. Give me my reward! Hee hee..."
["Give me my damn Bobsicles already!" D:]
"NOOOOOOOO!!!!" he screamed, leaping over into the stall next to him.
He quickly ran out of that stall and back into the complex to hide.
[Bob just can't catch a break from her, can he? >.> I begin to pity him, it's starting to feel on stalker-ish levels from dear little Crypha here.]
---------
Back on the Nomad...
Nole's face was lit only by the dim light of a monitor. Many images passed before him. DWGM searching for more power spots, Sandra, Everdred and her party, the General Lee frozen in mid-air, Bob running away from Crypha, Zac and his party going to search for the orbs... He blinked, almost producing an audible sound.
[Ohai sudden General Lee reference... o.o]
"Well well, quite a few interesting developments. I'll have to try to use some of this to my advantage..."
He began laughing maniacally, his cackle echoing throughout the dark room.

Kyle volunteered to join Zac in his quest, glad to be able to leave the complex. Glenn decided to stay, however. He wanted to really test his limits in that training center. He couldn't surpass 2x gravity for fear of hurting Kyle.
[Well, Glenn... it looks like you're out of luck for training right now. :\]
-----
Meanwhile, DWGM couldn't believe his luck! By aimlessly walking around, he managed to find two more power spots without trying! He found Milky well on his way to Lillyput Steps, which he was just leaving from.
[Gee, who knew DWGM would have such a sudden burst of luck? Even half-braindead tools still get lucky once in a while. It's like the whole 'stopped-clock' theorem. >_>]
Not only do they seem to be bunched together, thought DWGM, but they're all in obvios places! So far they've been in valleys and alleys and accesible by cave, in one way or another!
[Yeah, well besides Magnet Hill being in the middle of Eagleland's biggest city... but other than that, you know? :P]

"Zac, the analysis is complete. Would you care to hear or see
the results?" The computer spoke up. The anlysis took about an hour to
complete.
[Well I would think he does want to hear it, considering he requested the damn scan. >.>]
"Display the results on the monitor closest to me." The monitor
on Zac's left flickered to life. Numbers and stats appeared in great amounts. At
the end, what Zac wanted to see appeared. "It's real... it really is
a-"
["-an amber tennis ball!" :P]
"Zac, what are you doing?" Kyle and Glenn came over to see how he was
doing.
"Just checking the results of the analysis I had the computer do
on that orb Ness and Omedramon found."
"Oh? Is it real?" Glenn
asked.
Zac paused. "Yes. I'm going to go out and find them. If I can get
all of them, Brett will be back and kicking."
[Yeah, now comes the quest to bring back poor Brett to the land of the living again... shame this plotline never finished before the IF went south. :\]
"Are you going by
yourself?" Kyle asked.
"Actually, I wouldn't mind a friend or two coming
just in case there's trouble. I was going to go out and announce my departure to
the rest of the guys in a second."
[I wonder who the lucky vict... er volunteers are gonna be? :P]
The three left the room and went out
into the main lobby-esque area.
"I'm going out to search for the orbs.
I'll be back once I have them all and Brett is back. If a couple of you guys
want to come with me, that's fine. The complex is at your disposal, and I'll
have the computer answer any of your questions. So, who wants to go with
me?"
["Not I..." said the Cecil, "I wish to abuse the use of your training rooms." <.<]
-------------------------------------------------
"Captain,
it seems as though the group is slowly splitting apart. It seems as if some
people have their own agendas, thus weakening the strength of the
group."
[Gee, ya think, random scientist, #23? :P]
"This would be a perfect time to strike, but we will wait until
the weapon is ready, not to rush it. Plus, maybe more people will scatter from
the main group. We will wait and see what hand fate has dealt us this time..."
[Just don't wait too long Jamar... some other idiot might steal your chance from under you if that happens, or you know... the ship could get blown up... something like that. <.<]

Eventually, DWGM gave up on contacting the Nomad. Instead, he just
placed one of the locating devices onto the Magnet Hill and left the
alleyway.
[Looks like he really DID get a 'busy signal'. Shows how much the Nomad gives a crap about poor DWGM. :P]
He eventually made it to Dusty Dunes, having to swim across
from Fourside since the bridge was unaccessable and (so DWGM thought) probably
being watched.
[Damn, I suppose he is smart or paranoid enough to watch his back. ChaosGallentmon's death must've REALLY hit the poor tool hard. XD]
DWGM made his way along the shoreline. Along the way, he
spotted something shining in the sand. He recalled seeing mining equipment in
the desert earlier.
"Could that be gold?" asked DWGM aloud. He decided to
check it out. Sure enough, half-buried in the sand, a seemingly valuable object
was gleaming in the sun. It wasn't gold, DWGM noticed, but a small amber ball
with a star in it. He picked it up and continued on his way.
[What's a good use of Dragonballs without the villians of the piece at least getting their hands on one of them for tension's sake? :P]

[Well, Star finally returns after a hiatus of posts. :P]
Up in space, a group of fighters, nearly invisible, waited in a
meteor field. They had been there for hours without action. Some pilots were
already sleeping.
[I don't know how smart it would be to sleep at the cockpit of your star-fighters. Then again, I never piloted one, so natch. x.x]
Shine eyed her status. In about 30 minutes, her ship
would run out of life-support resources, and everybody else's will probably end
sooner. After Boris's ship had been frozen, they couldn't do anything without
communication. Or so they thought.
[No wonder they've been out of it for a while. :P]
Shroud had set up a satellite beacon
with only 1 channel, but it was enough. For endless hours upon hours they
discussed their next move, and monitoring what the group down on Earth were
doing. Shine sighed for the third time in her starfighter. It didn't happen
often.
[Shine must generally be a lot more cheerful and open on normal terms. I guess Boris's status is really eating at her. >.>]
Suddenly, something in Shrine and Shroud snapped in unison, as if
some memory between those two broke open from its cage. From their fighters,
they could see each other through the windshield, which is what they did. "Get
off the intercom for 5 minutes, everybody. I'm going to discuss a battle plan
with Shroud." Shine said into her mouthpiece.
[Um... not to ruin your sibling-rivalry here guys, but WHY do you two need the channel alone? What kind of plan are you worried about them hearing? O_o]
Once everybody was off,
Shine spoke again. "Shroud... I know you've been to pilot training with me. Do
you remember something about gravity reversal?"
"Yeah, Shine... But
what's gravity going to do about the Mother ship's current...
situation?"
[Hmm... this might be going somewhere? Perhaps? :P]
"I don't know exactly, but perhaps... Their weapon is
gravity-based? You know that gravity can be manipulated to change the speed and
functions of matter. Nobody's tried it out, because it might've been
dangerous..."
[Oh boy... this DOES sound pretty dangerous. It's 'Bad End' for sure if you get frozen by that thing.]
"So you're saying that we should try and preform the
gravity reversal on the Mother ship?"
"It's work, if my theory's
right."
[It's an IF, so either it will work out, or it'll go spectacularly wrong. XD]
"My sister was like this... I guess we can give it a try. But
we'd be at the risk of freezing ourselves along the way."
[Shroud, what the hell are you on...? That didn't come out the way you think it did at the beginning. o.O]
"Better die
trying than dieing."
"Wha-?"
"Never mind. Let's wait for the rest
to get back on the intercom."
[Still don't get WHY you needed a totally private channel to discuss it... XP]
Shine and Shroud explained their plan about
gravity reversal, and most accepted it. A handful were angry and afraid of the
risk, but after a few catchy space quotes, they agreed. By that time, their
life-support system was at about 6%, meaning they only had 10 minutes to do
it.
[Well you doofuses need to do something, or your all decompress in the vaccum and you don't want that, do you? :P]
They began the maneuver. As all the starfighters got into a circle
with tractor beams crossing to the other side, the Nomad's weapons turned toward
the group. Shine's hands started shaking. "Five... Four...
Three...Two...One..."
[and... ACTION!! XD]
Her timing could not have been more accurate. Red
beams sprouted out of the Nomad's cannons, and as they headed for the circle
formation of the surviving starfighters, they shrunk into a tighter formation.
As Shroud had expected, the large cannon aimed at the packed group, and
fired.
[Well we goes nothing... >.>]
"Go go go!" Everybody seemed to yell at the same time. The
feedback into the microphone was deafening, but everybody still did what they
were supposed to do. As they spread out again, into the largest circle possible,
the red beam blasted into the exact place where all the tractor beams had
crossed.
[So they're using their own tractor beams to reverse gravity flow? O.o I have no idea if that could work in reality, but Sci-Fi folks... Sci-Fi. o.o;]
The effect was magnificent and beautiful to the eye. The
blue-white of the tractor beams turned red, and seemed to be sucked into the red
ball at the center. It grew larger and larger, turning a bright yellow at the
same time. When it almost burned the fighters' positions, it launched right a
the Mother ship, which had been on the other side of the fighter
squadron.
[And caused the ship to promptly shrink down to the size of a mouse... Oh sorry, I'm thinking of my Misfits story for a second. XD]
The ship was enveloped by the yellow ball, and after a few
moments, became active again. The intercom channels lighted up again on the
interior of the ships, and they cheered in the different restored
channels.
Boris's voice reached Shine's ears. "Alright, Shine, I'll wait
for you."
"What are you talking about, Boris? We just unfroze
you!"
["What?! Well... damn this is awkward..." ._.]
Boris's face appeared on her screen again, surprised. "Get
everybody back to the ship, their life-support systems are incredibly low. I'll
expect a full report when you get back. I am so confused."
[You and me both, Boris... :P]
Shine smiled.
"Great, Boris. Guys! Let's go home."
Under heavy fire from the Nomad, the
remaining fighters returned to the Mothership, to rejoice and to reversed the
effects on Earth, once and for all.
Note: the gravitation reversal can't
work on large mass, such as a planet. And I thought it'd be a good way to get
back into the story, because I lost myself on the second page.
[Yeah, that's what friggin happens when you shy away from an active IF for more than 1-2 days at a time. You lose a LOT of headway. :P
Also, this is the return(sorta) of Boris as a character, but I think the author himself doesn't return yet, or at all for the reminder of the IF. Just a heads up.]

Aboard the Nomad, alarms were sounding everywhere.
"Find out
what is wrong," commanded Jamar. "And make it... not wrong."
[Another classic quote out of Frozen. :P]
The crewmen
ran about, searching for the cause of the problem. The ship was bustling with
such activity. Jamar's voice suddenly crackled over the PA.
"Attention
all crewmen! The one who finds out and ends what isn't right here gets a 200
ajarnon bonus!"
[What kind of currency is 'ajarnon' anyways? Knowing ZXD, it's probably either completely made up, or lifted from some game he's familar with. >.>]
Hours of excited searching passed. It was then that a
young crewman named Jared came upon that sparking control panel. He scratched
his head, all the while making an acessment.
"Well, looks like some kind
of liquid has drained into it."
Suddenly, a grin wiped across his face.
He pulled out a walkie talkie and called for help. Aftter a few minutes, his
help arrived in the form of... a chef? More specifically, Piezo the chef from
Francos V. He handed Jared a small box and an empty jynnan tonnyx
bottle.
[Piezo of 'Francos V'? I'm sure that's some kind of reference. And also, lol at yet another jynnan tonnyx reference. I think that's 3 or 4 now. :P]
"Thank you Piezo, that will be all."
Piezo scurried off
fast as his pudgy legs could move him. Jared opened the box, revealing his
secret weapon. A... turkey... baster? Yes, it was in fact a turkey baster. Jared
smiled evilly and stuck it into a small crack in the machine.
[Hopefully you won't damage the circuitry and other components even worse, you duncecap. :P]
"What's
this?" gurgled the liquid Adure. "Some kind of... plastic tube. Like a... turkey
baster?"
"That's right. A turkey baster!" Jared laughed.
["Fear the turkey baster, for it is king amongst anything made of liquid, foul man!" XD]
He
squeezed and released it. Adure was trapped inside it. But not for long Another
squeeze put him inside the jynnan tonnyx bottle. The alarms ceased.
"Very
good Jared," complimented Jamar. "You've earned this."
He handed Jared
200 ajarnon, just as he was promised.
"As for you, Mr. Adure... put him
in the freezer."
[Ouch, that's not gonna be good for Adure's complexion, is it? :P
Also, I don't think this was done as much with vitrol for PikaBot in mind, like ZXD has been with PlasmaPenguin, but more to keep the story dramatic.]
--------------
Back on Earth, Bob was still a trifle mad. He felt
neglected, rejected, conveyed as a loser. Like he was coming across as a bad
person. He knew that he was indeed a bad person, but it still wasn't right. Not
at all.
[Oh come on man, it's a flappin' message someone merely asked to deliver. I'm sorry if you followed your to-be girlfriend just to get turned around, but stuff happens. :\]
"Crypha, you know what it feels like to be rejected?"
[Relevant as hell question, Bob? :P]
She
looked deeply into Bob's eyes. She turned abruptly and lowered her
head.
"You don't know the half of it..."
[Well, I supposed the subject is a serious enough one to get Crypha to sober up as opposed to either gushing happily or screaming at someone in rage. <.<]
"Trust me, I
do."
"No... it's different. You wouldn't understand..."
["I kill people, I kill a lot of people... I think I can understand a bit of depression, lady." >.>]
"Try
me."
"Well..."
She whispered into Bob's ear. He jumped up and
yelled.
[Wow, must've been something terrible to make him jump like that. :P]
"AAAH! NO WAY!"
She giggled like a
schoolgirl.
"Yep! That's right Bob, I've got a crush on
yooooou!"
[Oh snap... yep... there's our confirmation of Crypha's feelings and her reason for turning to our side. o.o]
"AAAAAAAAAH!!!!"
Bob burst out the door and looked for a
place to hide. Crypha followed shortly after, giggling all the way.
["I just want more Bobsicles... Come on, it doesn't kill you... it's just makes new ones... I promise!" :P]
"Aww,
come out Bob! If you don't, I'll have to come fiiiiiiind
yoooooooou!"
Oh man, oh man, oh man... I like Sandra, not Crypha...
must escape...
[Of course you do, Romeo. :P]

A burst of thunder filled the air of Scaraba as the group of Paula,
Jeff, Poo, Sandra and Nebiroth descended from the sky into the northern part of
the city.
[Yeah, notice that everyone of the Chosen Four BUT Ness is here. :P
It's not that I had anything against the poor kid personally or in the context of his character and story. I did however feel in terms of attention in IFs and other material in general, he did end up hogging a LOT of attention. I get he's the main character of the main characters here, but I don't necessarily see that as an excuse to ignore the other playable characters in any game completely. >.>
I don't blame Ness, so much as I blame the over-zealous fans he can have. :P
Sorry, just a mini-rant of mine... I hope that doesn't happen again, but who knows. :P]
Sandra looked around at the stone buildings and the trees, and took
note of the heat. She was definately somewhere in the desert, a very dangerous
desert to travelers.
[As far as I recall, this is her first time dealing with a desert climate, and her outfit is black, the same color that holds heat in the best, despite its 75% resistance to Fire it gives her. :P]
Poo broke the silence, "Where do we start looking for
Everdred?" Sandra remembered her dream and what Hydra told her, "He's supposed
to have been in the middle of some bazaar when he was frozen." she replied.
[Yeah, not that you'd know where to look, considering you never left the confines of Eagleland or even Twoson during your early life before Santranus. :P]
"Then we need not go far." Poo said, as he and Paula led them over to the
central portion of the City, where the Baazar was held. The town, just like the
rest of the Earth, was frozen in place, just as suspected, but Paula and Sandra
saw no hair or trace of master thief Everdred.
[Well if he's a master thief, it would be hard to find him if he's up to something, wouldn't it? :P]
"Hmm... where is he?" asked
Paula. "Maybe he's known to these people, and has disquised himself. He is
supposably a thief, and they don't always walk around in the most obvious
attire." Poo suggested.
[See, Poo knows what it's all about. Granted, Poo has never actually MET Everdred before, considering some theorize he died after the encounter you have with him in Fourside, but personally I never bought it. <.<]
Sandra suddenly stopped in place and gasped at the sight
of a person frozen in place behind the booth of Red Snake, a man with a Small
brown derby, and a bright aloha shirt that stood out. He had a black and bushy
mustache. She recognized the character.
[In case you don't understand... I had it that Everdred knew the girls even back when they were really young. They were also some of the few people who weren't at all intimidated by his 'thief' profession and thus he grew to respect them both and became a sort of out-of-the-way friend of theirs. So yeah, Sandra considers him an old friend, despite his profession and his questionable past. :P]
"I found him!!" she screamed, as she ran
over to the frozen Everdred, who looked like he was about to sneak a snake bag
from Red Snake when the town became frozen. Sandra decided to waste no time, and
quickly cast Dispel on the frozen Everdred.
[More silver coins rain from the heavens, yo! >.>]
Soon the master thief unthawed, but
the side effects caused him to fall over, which Sandra had forgotten about.
Everdred, on his back and a little dizzy, dumbfounded to say the least.
[Where's your 'master thief' skills now, Everderp? :P]
"What
happened to me?" His vision cleared, he soon saw Paula, Jeff, Poo, Sandra, and
Nebiroth, who had just recently came out of one of the houses with a red cross
on it, wondering what it was.
[A little bit of side-lulz with Nebiroth wondering what a hospital is. :P]
"Little Paula? What're you doing here right
now? Aren't you on rest?"
["Little"? She's almost 5'11" now, you klutz. Probably about as tall as you. <.<]
"Long story, Mr. Everdred. We'll explain soon
enough..." Paula replied, "Let's just say Earth is in trouble from a different
problem now." Everdred looked around in responce to Paula's explanation. Sure
enough, he had caught gist that the world was in a mess, a frozen mess.
[...of tangled webs and wires? o.o]
"Why is
everyone frozen in place?" he asked. Sandra answered Everdred, attracting his
attention, "The world has been shot with a strange laser that seems to have
created some field of time around it that is freezing the unlucky in place. You
were also a victim, and so were Paula, Jeff and Poo here at one point. I wasn't
here on the Earth when the beam hit, so I was unaffected."
[Yeah, I'm not sure if Sandra would have been frozen like the others if Auto-Haste wasn't a factor and if she HAD arrived on Earth a few hours earlier than she had. Interesting what-ifs, maybe for another time. >.>]
Everdred's eyes
buldged as the words "I wasn't here on the Earth" went into his ears, and he
realized it, "Little... Sandra?! You're alive!! You're okay!! I've missed you
since... since..."
["...since you vanished into the voids of time and space with that strange Blue Box." - Sorry, I had to make a Doctor Who reference somewhere. :P]
"Yes, it's me... I know I've probably caused you a lot of
grief." Sandra replied, lowering her head in slight shame. She felt bad that she
had to do what she did as a five-year old. She had little choice in the matter
though. That or Twoson and the rest of the world be fried by some dragon
being...
[Yeah, the portal she jumped into, it was going to release this moderately-powerful dragon to wreck havoc on an unprepared town. Sandra, being in her five-year old mindset, figured if she jumped in, she might reverse the flow of the portal and send it back, but ended up getting her stuck away from home for 10 friggin years for it. I hope she learned her lesson. :P]
"No... no... Paula told me after you disappeared of what really
happened. I was depressed when I heard about it, but I always had beliefs that
you were still alive, no matter where you had gone."
[I guess that's reassuring... but it seems to show you had more hope for her than her own sister did. That's kinda depressing when I look back on it.
Then again... their bond, man... their bond... Paula would be better inclined to make that determination than another other than Sandra herself. >.>]
Sandra looked back up with
a slight smile at him, "Thanks for believing in me, I guess. My last 10 years
have been a mixed bag, but I have managed to get home in the end, so that's all
that matters right now. I'd go into details about the 10 years... but we're not
out of trouble yet!
["...they're after you and want your great master thieving skills!" :P]
The people that are behind this are still at large, and they
are trying desperately to destroy us all. Mom and Dad, as well as three of their
friends, they're prisoners in the hands of these people. They are from space,
and their ship seems to be the source of the beam."
"Like the one behind you?"
Everdred pointed to Nebiroth.
[I can only imagine Everdred being secretly scared stiff, looking at Nebi like that. XD]
"Nebiroth from a different world also. Nebiroth
and Sandra meet under not-so-good choices. Nebiroth was enemy of Sandra once."
the demonoid replied. "Yes, Nebiroth's on our side." Sandra agreed.
[Meh, to be honest... Nebiroth... the REAL Nebiroth never fought Sandra at all, so I doubt they were truly enemies at all. Sardius just jerked Nebi around into thinking that. XP]
"Hey, aren't
you that samurai prince that joined Paula's group when they were fighting that
Giygas being?" he said, pointing to Poo, and then he saw Jeff, "I remember you
vaugely too from Fourside in the alley of Jackie's. I never caught your name
thought beforehand."
[Well at least he remembers Jeff... but how the frack he knew about Poo...? I guess maybe he read something about it in the different newspapers sold around the world at the different hotels? <.<]
"Yes." Jeff replied, "I remember. My name's Jeff, and
that's Poo, Prince of Dalaam." Everdred smiled a little, and picked himself off
the ground, but then a question washed over him, "Um, I just realized something.
If I was frozen, and Paula and her friends there were also, who freed them?"
[The Time Bunny of Easter-hereafter did, Everdred. O.O]
"I
did." Sandra replied, "I've learned an abundance of magic over my recent 10
years in that other world. Nebiroth seems immune to the beam naturally for some
reason, so he was also unaffected. I used some of my magic to undo the effects
around various people.
["...Including a spy for the enemy using the time beam, to our misfortune." ಠへಠ]
Sigh, too bad one of those creeps from above had taken
the form of my dad's friend Johnson, who I personally unfroze, and let learn
about my powers. He's likely told his buddies that I can do that now, and I'll
be a big priority in their path of destruction."
[Yes... even this incarnation of Sandra tends to think heavily into matters when it comes to the possibilities of how her enemies try to gather intelligence and info on her. Other incarnations still tend to do things like hold back their true power intentionally to trick any would-be observers into underestimating her in future battles.]
"We won't allow that to
happen, now will we, Sandra?" Everdred chuckled, "You and your sister have
always been very resourceful, and when you two are together, you're almost
unstoppable!
[We'll have to see about that, ol' wise 'master thief'. :P]
You're both smart, and you each possess abilities unique to you.
Plus you guys have me, Jeff, Poo, er... Nebiroth, and... wait a sec... Where's
Ness himself at?"
[lol, I love how only NOW he notices Ness of all people is missing. XD]
"He's with another sub-group. We're not the only unfrozen
people. We split off from the main group to find you because Sandra got
immensely worried about you, and because Jeff needs to go to his father's lab in
Winters for some things." Poo explained.
["and because he's is up to some crazeh plan he won't tell us about!" D:]
"Winters? Lab?! Wait a second, I
remember you completely now! You're Jeff Andonuts, son of Dr. Timothy Andonuts
of the Winters Science Club!
[Yeah, me and giving canon characters first names that were never established in the main games again. :P
Also, unlike some people, I don't consider Jeff's father to be Loid from Mother 1. Loid might be a more distant relative, a grandfather or great-grandfather perhaps, but definately not Jeff's father. >.>]
I had small links to him through Maxwell Labs of
the Snow Wood boarding school. Maxwell used to be a good friend of mine, you
know." "You knew Maxwell? How? I thought he lived in Winters most of his life!"
Jeff was dumbfounded.
[Good flapping question there, Jeff. :O]
"Maybe we can find him too, and he could help me explain."
"Yes, we ARE heading to Winters next... but one thing is yanking at my
curiousity, Mr. Everdred: Why are you here in Scaraba?" Paula asked him. "Well,
to tell you the truth, I was about to steal this guy's snake bag here because I
needed it on my trip to the pyramid."
[And do what with it, exactly? The Hawk Eye was removed months ago, by Ness and his group no less. :P]
"You were heading to the pyramid?" "Yes, I
wanted to see if anything was left from when those raiders went in and stole the
Hawk Eye."
[Okay, fair enough reasoning there I suppose. But I still bet you Ness and them looted the place clean before they left. :P]
Paula, Jeff and Poo sweatdropped at the fact Everdred didn't realize
THEY were the ones who took the Hawk Eye for the Deep Darkness.
[lawl XP]
"We'll explain
about that later." Poo said to him, "But we need to head over to Winters for
Jeff. We need to line up and prepare to teleport." "Yes, we should." Everdred
agreed.
The group gathered outside of the gates of Scaraba, and in a
space area, and Poo soon used Teleport Beta to take off to Winters in a flash...
[And promptly start to freeze their asses off... well most of them anyways. >.>]

While hoofing it to get to the others, Omedramon came across a
small ball in the dirt-surprising he noticed it.
[The hell does "dirt-surprising" even mean? O_o]
It was Sushinchu, a.k.a.
the four-star dragon ball.
[Ah... the ultimate 'Deus Ex Machina', or at least the standard against which all others are judged... the good ol' dragonballs. :P
Also a note: to be fair, I originally thought DrAndonuts had been the one to introduce them before I had gone back over this, being he had Brett and Zac being Saiya-jin. I guess PlasmaPenguin figured he wouldn't mind, thus introducing us to the next big plot device of the story. <.<]
"What's this?" Ness asked.
[It's a amber-colored tennis ball, Ness. Get with the program. :P]
"Beats me,
but i'll bet on of the others know! C'mon!" Omedramon increased speed and dashed
to the others.
[Well good to know the MDC didn't knock out his speed capabilities. >.>]
OK, my posts have been a tad bland lately. I'm best at
bigger things-i suck at this. That's why I always add something new. Zac's a
saiyan, he oughta know what Dragon Balls are...
[Ooooooh yeah... we almost all know what Dragonballs are. XD]
NOTE: Remember, the DBs
grant 3 wishes once you get all seven...so use 1 of them to bring Brett back to
life.
[Wut? o.O
Er... based on if you're going by EARTH dragonballs, at best you'd get TWO wishes, but early on it was JUST one. NAMEK'S dragonballs are the ones that grant three wishes, but those were the size of a man's head or bigger, compared to the size you're describing here Plasma. XD]

"Ungh... what happened?" Zac grabbed his head, his wounds healed.
[Yeah, that was probably just a rejuvenation tank for a bed. :P]
Memories of the past few hours flooded back to him. Anger started to fill him
once again.
[Saiya-jins and their angered emotions... typical. :P]
But, he pushed it aside. I can't stay mad forever. Brett wouldn't
want that.
[Well at least Zac has more control than Vegeta did in early-mid DBZ. :o
And yeah, obviously Brett was usually the calmer, more rational brother (for all the hell it served him trying to face down Crypha though :( ), while Zac's the brash, impulsive one. :P]
Walking out to the main hall where most of the others
lounged, Omedramon and Ness came storming into the room.
[Probably still mad at getting blasted in the FACE by the MDC. :P]
"Does anyone
know what this is?" Ness asked the group, revealing the small, amber
sphere.
[Ness, it's a flapping tennis ball as I said before! D:<]
It can't be... Zac's mind started to race with hopes and
dreams. Zac walked over to Ness, with the group staring at him in
wonderment.
[Well it's safe to say Zac probably knows what it is, although it could be a fake too. >.>]
"I think I know what it is, but to be sure, I'm going to have
the computer run some tests to make sure what it is..." Zac took the orb and ran
into a different room. He set up a stand and set the ball on it.
[So a mass-spectrometer test? Oh sorry, it's a dragonball, not the damn Soul Cube from Doom 3. :P]
"Computer,
analyze this object fully and completely and once the scan is complete, report
to me as to what it is. Use all available databases and cross-check all facts
with myths, legends, and fables."
[Because you know... the theory of "Fictional Realism" might be indeed in effect, you know. :P I won't bore you on what that is... go google it or something. <.<]
