[IC] - All the World's a Game

Cyberspace

Isaac continued to work, all while listening to his surroundings.

(30%), Isaac read in his helmet's HUD.

"Hows that battle going?", Isaac asked Zero as he continued to work on the wall.

Chris continues to watch the road as he began thinking deeply about the T-Virus they had, and the bomb they made with it. "I still can't believe they had the nerve..." Muttered Chris as they kept on driving. "Take a left at this road ahead. Once you reach the city it is only a few right turns until you reach the apartment complex." Said Chris as he kept thinking of the T-Virus.

Zero kept fighting, Dark Mantis and Zero were at a complete stalemate. Their blades clashing one more time before Dark Mantis jumps back. "Looks like you've grown a bit in strength Zero... however you won't be able to defeat me now..." Said Dark Mantis as he spews a dark cloud from his mouth. It's a new ability Lumine gave him. This ability allows him to create think dark clouds to confuse his opponents by messing with a Reploid's senses. Suddenly Zero started to become disoriented, his vision creating duplicates of Dark Mantis. "Crap. At this rate I won't be able to hold out! You better hurry Isaac!" Said Zero as he closed his eyes. He then begins to concentrate.

"Focus Zero... you have to anticipate his next attack..." He thought as he began to focus.

Isaac was starting to get pissed at being rushed.

(F*ck it.), Isaac pulled out his Plasma Cutter with one hand and kept working with the other.

Isaac aimed at the Reploid's torso and fired, sending metal searing plasma at his enemy.

"It's about the T-Virus... I know they needed it to make those creatures... that's one thing... but when I saw that bomb with the T-Virus in it. It just..." Said Chris as he punches the cushioning of the car seat. "What are they planning to do with it!? Are they seriously planning on spreading the T-Virus!?" He yelled as a look of pure anger comes over his face.

As Isaac fired his shots Dark Mantis quickly dodged at a surprising speed. "Tsk tsk tsk... a pathetic weapon like that won't work on me. I was designed to be a assassin. Besides, here in Cyberspace... Lumine was able to modify my body to be far stronger and faster than it was before! I can move faster than hypersonic speeds here. After all, data can be modified to do anything here." Said Dark Mantis walks towards Isaac. However Zero managed to catch Dark Mantis off-guard with a stab from the Z-Saber. "Got you now!" Said Zero as Dark Mantis simply phases through the energy blade. He then turns towards Zero and kicks him, sending him flying into a wall of data.


"Alia I could use some help! Can't you do something!?" Yelled Zero as Alia begins searching through her files. "I'll see. Aha I got it! Sending an upgrade data to you Zero!" Said Alia as she pushes a button on her keyboard. Zero comes to a stand. His armor becoming black instead of red, and his hair turning white. His Z-Saber changes from a green color to a light blue color. He now has the Black Armor upgrade. With this his speed and strength is increased. Zero smirks a bit and gets ready for an attack. "Okay Isaac. I can handle this now! Thanks Alia!" He said as he charges at Dark Mantis.

Chris looks at Gerard. "Yea, this is the place." Said Chris as he looks at his apartment complex. "If you want I should tell you what the T-Virus is capable of once we get inside..."

Cyberspace

"Fine, just tell me if you want me to make things easier.", Isaac said as he continued to work.

"Oh yea, progress is a 60%", Isaac said as he kept working.
