pmyahooaim | | Re: Bleaching the Network (12th Dec 08 at 12:41am UTC) | | Mario pants a little then sighs in relieve as the data columns disappear. Needing a rest, he goes into the I/O Tower.
"He is doing very well, and to be able to overcome Data Sora..." Bleach is silent before he smiles. "Well, I suppose I should get the third challenge ready. But first..."
Inside the I/O Tower, the terminal kicks into life, allowing communication but no transportation. | |

Before he can say anything else, however, the connection suddenly cuts off. "...Crap..." Sighing, he dashes back into the other words, heading for the Flight Simulator. | |

pmyahooaim | | Re: Bleaching the Network (12th Dec 08 at 10:38pm UTC) | | Mario is silent before he sighs, walking past the terminal and toward the Messa Core.
Inside...he finds nothing.
"...Is this it?" Mario asks as he looks around, silent before he turns to leave.
He then jumps, yelling out as he leaps away from Bleach.
"Sorry for startling you," Bleach says. "Did you enjoy fighting Data Sora?"
Mario recovers and glares at him angrily. "I'd enjoy it more if you'd stop playing games."
"Is that so?" Bleach asks with a smile. "Well, I think you'll be glad to know that this will be the last of our games."
"Which is...?"
"Defeat...that."
Mario blinks and turns around, coming face-to-face with the Data Snatcher. "...Ah crap again..."
Bleach quickly leaps onto the Data Snatcher as it quickly hovers backwards over the void in the core's center, out of Mario's reach for the time. | |

pmyahooaim | | Re: Bleaching the Network (12th Dec 08 at 11:17pm UTC) | | Mario sees Tron and grimaces. He then gets his Shadow Blades ready.
"I'd be careful if I were you," Bleach says. "After all, Data Snatcher can easily use your friend's abilities against you. For example..."
The Data Snatcher's circuitry suddenly turns a bright blue, flashing before it slaps its hands together, creating packets of data that head for Mario. It's Tron's finisher Reprogram.
"Ah crap!" Mario yells as he quickly runs away, the data chasing after him as he runs. He occasionally throws his Shadow Blades at them with a Strike Raid, but every time he hits one, it splits into two. | |

pmyahooaim | | Re: Bleaching the Network (12th Dec 08 at 11:43pm UTC) | | Mario quickly counterstrikes when the Reprogram finally fades, tossing a Shadow Thunder Raid toward the Data Snatcher and hitting it hard on its symbol.
The Data Snatcher reels back a little but recovers quickly, now hovering lower to try to smash its arms into Mario.
Mario quickly sidesteps the blows, jumping onto the arms and rushing up them toward Bleach. He slashes at him and misses when Bleach jumps, but he quickly compensates by landing a hard hit on the Data Snatcher's head and leaping back to the edges of the core. | |

pmyahooaim | | Re: Bleaching the Network (13th Dec 08 at 12:01am UTC) | | The Data Snatcher growls before it uses Reprogram again.
Mario, however, is serious this time. He spins around, slashing at each data cluster as it comes at him and split in half. Data pools around him as he keeps spinning, cluster after cluster splitting open and reforming. Finally, the attack fades away, and Mario, his Shadow Blade now shimmering in data, faces the Data Snatcher. "Fr...fr..." he studders, stumbling around as he tries to get his bearings back. "Woah...dizzy..."
Upon regaining his composition, he tries again. "Freeze!"
The Data Snatcher freezes, but almost instantly, it starts moving again.
Mario blinks. "Wha?"
Bleach chuckles. "It'll take more than a Freeze command to stop the Data Snatcher."
Mario then smiles. "Alright then, how about a second helping?" He then holds up the second blade, also shimmering. "Freeze!"
The Data Snatcher freezes again, this time a bit longer. | |

pmyahooaim | | Re: Bleaching the Network (13th Dec 08 at 12:08am UTC) | | The Data Snatcher, after unfreezing, is caught offguard by the pushing and ends up ejecting Tron.
Bleach is silent before smiling. "Well done." | |

pmyahooaim | | Re: Bleaching the Network (13th Dec 08 at 12:33am UTC) | | Mario nods. "Right."
Bleach chuckles and throws his arms out. "Well then, try your best!"
"HALT."
Mario and Bleach both stop, blinking and glancing around.
"Bleach, who was that?" Mario asks.
"How should I know?" Bleach responds, still glancing around.
Suddenly, an orange data packet appears in front of Bleach, causing him to stare at it.
"And who, may I ask, are you?" he inquires.
The data packet quickly responds. "YOU MAY CALL ME...THE MCP." | |

pmyahooaim | | Re: Bleaching the Network (13th Dec 08 at 12:50am UTC) | | "What? You're blaming me for this?" Bleach yells. "I never released anything!"
"AFFIRMATIVE," the MCP responds. "I HAVE, IN FACT, BEEN WAITING FOR THE RIGHT MOMENT. ALL THIS TIME, TRON, I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TO WEAKEN, AND NOW I HAVE MY CHANCE TO RECOVER MY PLACE AND ERADICATE THE USERS."
"And you think I'd let you do that because...?" Bleach asks.
"WHAT COULD YOU DO?"
"Funny you should ask. I happen to be keeping a copy of the viral data that Tron used to defeat you last time."
"IT IS IRRELEVANT. NO MERE PROGRAM CAN MATCH THE POWER OF THE MCP."
"You don't seem that powerful to me."
"SYSTEMATIC ERRORS I HAVE YET TO RESOLVE."
"Yeah, yeah. Data Snatcher, destroy this bug."
The Data Snatcher immediately lunges, rushing in to swallow and digest the MCP. Within seconds, the MCP disappears within the program's mouth. | |
