Chapter 23
'Do you happen to know where your pink headed friend's concert happen to be?' Vul asked as her operator strolled around in the city, looking around her surroundings cautiously.
"Her hair is magenta damn it.." Hoshi muttered. "And if you don't want to say a specific name for the color of her hair, then say purple. It's not pink..."
The fox-looking alien rolled her emerald green eyes in response of Hoshi's claim then decided to correct herself for the girl's sake.
'Okay, fine. PURPLE headed friend. Now where is it? Are you sure you're going the right way?'
Hoshi then stopped as she decided to take a full spin in one spot to see if there was anyone strange following her. Fortunately for her, no suspicious activity was detected near the area she stood at.
"Yes, I'm sure," she replied, continuing down her path.
But as the girl picked up her feet one at a time in a pattern that couldn't be broken, the orange fox suddenly sensed something strange, an FMian nearby. The presence of the FMian was quite strong which got her suspiciously cautious. Before she could say something to her operator, the presence died down, disappearing in an instant.
'Strange...' she muttered to herself.
"What was that? the girl asked curiously, raising her arm up to look at the screen of her transer.
'No, it's nothing. Just talking to myself, so don't worry,' the alien replied.
"If you say so.." the human child answered as she closed the device.
'I think I was imagining... Doubt that shrimp could lay a single scratch on anyone..' Vulpecula thought, snickering mischievously to herself.
'I swear she's gone crazy...' Hoshi though to herself as the airy laughter of her wizard passed through her ears.
The same presence of the FMian appeared again causing the alien to slowly quiet down and look around cautiously once more. Silently tilting her head upwards to sniff at the air, she decided to confirm who that FMian may be.
'Cancer...?' she took a guess. 'Hmmmmmmm... Maybe not. He'll screw something up on his half.'
The odd thing about that same presence she felt was that it kept appearing and fading away as if it was traveling around to look for something.

By the time Hoshi reached to the open area near the stage Misora was going to perform at the girl noticed bubbles floating around casually.
"... Was someone playing around with soap, water, and corn syrup?" the girl as curiously. "They sure did a good job... These bubbles look ginormous and ever lastin- Whoa, what?"
As the girl looked through the current clear blue bubble in front of her, she noticed that there were people inside of them, completely stuck.
"Okay, maybe they did too much of a good job.." she muttered nervously, narrowing her eyes at the jelly-like substance.
'Hoshi?' a female voice called.
"Eh?"
Backing away and looking over to where the voice came from, the girl saw her class president much to her dismay.
"Ah.. Luna..." she said blandly.
'Don't 'Ah, Luna,' me!' the girl exclaimed offendedly.
"My mistake. Ahem, Luna are you alright?" she corrected, covering her lower face with an arm.
'Does it look like I'm okay?' she asked nervously. 'Please, help us get out of here! Just careful not to touch this bubbles though!'
Hoshi stared blankly as she backed away again from the slow moving bubbles, lowering her arm a little.
"Then how can I help you it I can't touch these?" she decided to asked picking up a stone. "Throw rocks at it until it pops?"
Luna immediately rejected the suggestion as she shook her head and waved her arms in fear of having it sink through the substance, eventually hitting her afterwards.
'Maybe not throw it, but more like stabbing it with a sharp object?' she asked.
'Yeah, don't go throwing things at at president!' Gonta exclaimed, earning the smaller student's attention.
"Then you?" Hoshi asked innocently. "Look. If these things caught you, you can't get out of it until whatever it was that made these bubbles is destroyed."
She then stuck the stone into the bubble next to her, avoiding her hand from making contact with it. Of course just like a human, the stone casually sank into the bubble and dropped to its base.
"Plus, I'm not capable of fighting those things like that Megaman guy and whoever he's working with," she chuckled. "Sorry to break the news to you. Anyways, I'll go search for help. You three hang tight."
'Wait!' Kizamaro called as she dashed off. 'Who are you going to look for?'
"The Satella Police or heck even Megaman if I have to!" she called back, sticking out her tongue as she continued off.
'M-Megaman?!' Luna called. 'Are you crazy? You don't even know where he is! Or maybe he'll suddenly appear and swoop down to rescue me...! Haaa...' she sighed, completely forgetting the situation.
'L-Luna... -san..' the boys murmurred awkwardly.
"EM Wave change," the fox operator muttered as she ran behind the building, quickly disappearing in a cloud of yellow wind.
Appearing on the orange and yellow wave road, Hoshi sighed to herself and lept into the air, landing on the ground smootly and suddenly dashing into the building where more of the bubbles were being produced.
"Kyahahahaha! Misora-chan, buku!" a tiny red FMian exclaimed. "I want Misoraaaa! Buku!"
Hoshi stopped as she looked at the FMian with disbelief, her mouth twitching into a funky yet pissed looking grin.
'Cancer... Uh... no actual comment after that..' Kyuubi said.
"Our opponent... is a crab...? Hell, a CHIBI to be exact?" she muttered.
"That's what I though to but that kid's pretty dangerous.." Megaman commented, walking over to the girl casually. "Well, only if you disturb him."
"Misora- chan, buku!~" he cooed, shooting out more bubbles from onto the destroyed stage.
"Okay, that's kind of disgusting hearing him coo out to her that way," Kyuubi commented in a disturbed tone, covering her face.
Cancer suddenly used his Boomerang Cutter, shooting his claws out at the other two EM human beings after noticing they were still present.
"Where is MISORA-CHAN!?" he exclaimed angrily.
Out of instinct before Lunar Kyuubi was able to look up and move out of the way, Megaman grabbed the girl over to him to dodge the first claw and then jumped out of the way to dodge the second. The sharp red and blue claws returned to their owner as the boy set the girl back to her feet.
"Ah. Thanks," she murmurred awkwardly before she thought to herself. 'Pay attention, Hoshi...'
"Cancer, if you keep-"
"It's Cancer Bubble you demon alien animal thing, buku!" the tiny EM human exclaimed, shooting his claws again.
"Haaahh?!" she exclaimed irritably, grabbing Megaman and shielding the two with her tails.
"There's really no difference... we're still calling you Cancer for short- Uwah..!" Megaman said blankly.
'Oh yeah. I never told you, but they all call me demon due to having the mythical nine tails,' the alien chuckled.
'Is that something to be proud of? And how do you even know about the demon fox...?' the girl asked as she let go, receiving no reply.
"Sorry for the inconvenience, but Harp Note is now on the case!" the pink girl announced, appearing onto the stage out of nowhere.
"Oooohhhhh, took sometime did you?" Kyuubi said as one of her tails suddenly tossed a flame ball over at Cancer, making him dance.
"Hey, watch it, buku!"
"Sorry, a carnivore's instinct," she commented before tossing another.
"Cancer, go back to where you came from! You've destroyed this stage quite enough already!" Harp commented angrily, causing the boy to glare at her.
"... Boomerang Cutter!" he exclaimed, attacking the girl.
Harp Note immediately dodged the attack and looked around her to see more damage being done to the stage she stood upon.
'Oh dear, this will take some time to fix and clean...' she muttered to herself.
"Hey you! Behave!" the white haired girl growled, heading over and swinging her lance onto Cancer's head, causing his eyes to bug out of his head.
"BUKU! OW!" he exclaimed, rubbing the top of his head in pain as tears pricked the corner of his eyes.
Cancer was now caught off guard as he began to yell at the taller girl, an argument slowly building up between the two.
"Quit hitting me, buku!"
"Ehhhh, then what else am I supposed to do to get you to stop damaging this place?" Kyuubi replied.
"Just ask, buku! As if I'd stop though, buku!" he exclaimed.
"Exactly why I hit you."
"Are they seriously arguing right now...?" Megaman asked Omega-Xis, earning a sigh.
"Shock Note!" Harp suddenly sang, speakers appearing beside her and shooting out glowing blue notes.
Unfortunately for Cancer, the attack landed on him when he wasn't paying any attention to anyone, but the troublesome fox right in front of him.
"That's why you pay attention instead of argue with the 'demon,' idiot.." Kyuubi mumbled boredly.
The tiny EM wave changed human flew back a good few feet and out came a tiny red and blue crab looking alien, the boy he waved changed with unconcious.
"Eh... So you're cancer? You look kind of ridiculous..." Scorpious Tail commented, decending into the building with ease.
"... I'm done for the day," the fox girl announced suddenly disappearing. "I'm sure Misora will figure out how to solve this problem."
Harp Note then looked over to where Kyuubi stood and blinked, wondering how she knew her name until it clicked.
'Oh wait... I'm well-known... But would someone like her even know me?' she thought, transferring out of the EM world. "Good work today."
"So it's just you and me..." Scorpius announced, causing Megaman to flich and crouch into a battle position.
'Kid, it's best to run this time around,' Omega-Xis said, completely aware off the alien's presence. 'He's not a normal FMian.'
'Eh?' Subaru asked, before he was forced to escape.
"... Heh, so they all are aware this time around huh?" Futo asked, exiting the building to check if any of them were still outside.
After all, there was still the concert and the incident with the citizens being trapped in the bubbles Cancer made during his time there.
"Luna? Luna?" Hoshi called, as she walked around the area she found the class president and her two loyal followers.
"How... did they disappear?" the girl suddenly asked, earning Hoshi's attention.
"Ah, there you are!" she chimed, helping them up from the floor. "I told you I'd find Megaman somehow. He probably found the source of the problem when I was heading back over here to you guys."
"You met Megaman?! WHERE?!" the platinum blonde haired girl exclaimed desperately.
"Uh... I just happened to find him nearby... I guess I got lucky, ahahaha!" she lied. 'I'm such a terrible liar...'
Luna's face deflated as she brushed the dirt off herself silently, jealous of the girl who stood before her.
"U-um... Who's that?" Kizamaro asked frighteningly, pointing at the person behind Hoshi.
The girl looked over carefully and was immediately pulled out of the way by Subaru as quickly as possible, Scorpius attacking the girl.
"What do you want?" the boy asked harshly, pulling Hoshi back up onto her feet. "Sorry, was that too harsh?"
Hoshi shook her head as she pulled her hair out of her face to get a better vision of Scorpius and her surroundings, glaring at the EM Human sharply.
"... Quit following me. I don't even know who you are," she growled, Luna suddenly stepping in front of her much to her surprise. "Luna?"
"Why is it that you're stalking this young lady from my class? I'll have you quit that creepy yet childish act of yours before Megaman comes and kick you back to outer space!"
Subaru nervously laughed mentally at the girl's threat and then sent a hard stare at Scorpius, the green boy not really caring about the threats.
"You're so annoying..." he grumbled, catching the girl off-guard.
"E-excuse me?" she asked not very offendedly, but confusedly. "You sound like someone I know..."
"W-what? You must be crazy in your head then, woman!" he exclaimed before leaving. 'Can't have Luna finding out who I am now... I'll be kicked out for sure..."
"... What was that all about...?" Luna growled, setting her hands on her hips angrily.
"He's been following you? For how long?" Gonta suddenly asked.
"Do you think the same thing will happen to her like it happened to Gonta?" Kizamaro asked, scared by the thought of it.
"Eh? What happened to me again?" the bigger boy asked cluelessly.
"It's nothing," Hoshi assured him. "I don't think so though... He hasn't made any other move, but follow me around."
"Well even so, you got to be careful," Subaru sighed, smiling a little. "At least you're fine for now."
"... I sure hope so."

I AM FRIGGEN SORRY! OH MY GOD! NO, I HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN ABOUT THESE STORIES! I'VE JUST BEEN SO BUSY WITH EVERYTHING! From school to house work to dealing with writer's block to art, etc... BUT REALLY! I AM TRULY SORRY! I'll be updating when I can and well of course it might take forever -sob-
I recently lost (like on Tuesday..) my gift my brother gave me on my birthday. I can't find it anywhere and my teachers and the office said they never saw it either (it's a bag of art pens by the way), so I assume someone dug it out of my backpack during one of my classes when I was gone... This is my first time losing a gift I got from someone so I'm really depressed and guilty about everything. But enough about my ramble.
R&R and please do enjoy! My utmost apologies once again.
