Rockman EXE: Transference 3 : Chapter 2: Coffee Date

[Core]

I thought I would do a rewrite of what I started with Transference 3 before the board got wiped out. Here is the new version, and all will be come clear in the next chapter about some things.


Disclaimer: This story takes places out side of the normal universe for the Rockman.EXE series. While some characters are the same as their cannon counterparts, others are fictional and their stories do not have bearing on the official story put out by Capcom.


Chapter One: A New Dimension

“Saito-kun, wait up!” A blond haired girl yells as she runs down a hallway towards a brown haired boy with an open orange vest.

“Roll, I though you were staying after school to work on a project.” The boy says as he stops and looks at her curiously.

“No time to talk.” Roll snaps as she takes hold of his arm and starts hauling him back towards the school, “I need your help with something.”

The boy is half dragged back into the school towards the schools performing arts studio, where a group of others were already gathered. The assorted students along with one teacher look up from their different tasks amid stage props and papers to look at the two.

“Ms. Seto I think I have a replacement for the part!” Roll chimes as she pulls Saito along, the boy blushing as he is presented to the tall blond in charge of the group of students.

“Hmm, are you sure that you can play the role?” The teacher asks as she looks at Seto.

“Well I…” The boy starts, getting a quick elbow from Roll in the ribs. “Yeow! I mean… Yes, yes I’m sure.”

The teacher’s eyes light up as she smiles, “That is excellent! Now we can proceed with the production since we have our new male lead.”

“Roll, what did you just get me into?” Saito asks as the girl quietly when the teacher leaves, the other blond smiling and blushing a little.

“Well, we needed a replacement for the lead role and the options weren’t looking that good so I said that I knew someone that wanted the part and got you.” Roll smiles as she pulls a lock of long blond hair back behind her left ear. “You’ll have fun, you get to play a pirate.”

Saito blinks a bit as he looks at her and then smiles, “Well a pirate sounds fun. So what role do you have?”

Roll blushes as she looks at her feet, “Princess Buttercup.”

***

“I can’t believe I got pulled into that.” Saito says as he sits down on his bed, setting his PET down on the nightstand on its small charger station. “Now I have to perform ‘The Princess Bride’ in front of the whole school.”

“Not just the whole school, but also the college students and those parents that are going to attend, as well as those watching the production at home on their monitors.” Rockman pipes in from the small blue PET. “But you should have seen it coming since Roll did take the lead role in that production.”

The green-eyed boy sighs as he lays down on the bed and stares at the ceiling, folding his arms under his pillow. “Yeah, I guess you are right Rockman. But it still has me a bit in shock, not as much as when we were transferred into each others bodies, but still.”

Rockman nods as he remembers when he and Saito were in switched positions along with Roll and Meiru, but now they existed in different plains. “If that memory block didn’t crash we would have lived out our lives not knowing we had switched places. Saito, do you miss being a navi?”

The boy blinks and rolls over on his side to look at his twin, “Sometimes. How about you, do you miss being human?”

The small blue navi nods once, “At times, but this world is very neat and I’ve gotten use to it. Same with you I imagine.”

“Yup, so how are things with you and Meiru?” Saito asks quickly changing the subject.

Rockman blushes a bit, “I’m supposed to go over to Roll’s computer later tonight and then take her to the amusement park. OH! That reminds me, Roll wants you to meet her at the dinner at eight.”

“WHAT!” Saito snaps as he sits up quickly and looks at the time on the PET, “Its 7:58 now! Why didn’t you tell me earlier?” The boy says as he rushes out of the bed and picks up the PET.

“Sorry Saito-kun, I forgot.” Rockman replies sheepishly, “After all this time as a navi I still make mistakes.”

***

“He has to be around here somewhere.” Enzan states as he looks around the warehouse, dressed in a pair of urban camouflage pants that were torn at the thighs and a black shirt and vest that bore his navi icon. “Blues, are you tapped into the old security grid for this place?”

“Not yet Enzan-sama.” The navi replies as he navigates the ancient network, “The control pathways for the network have fallen with age. It is making it… difficult to get to the control panel.”

“Well keep working on it, I’ll get a bead on this guy if I can.” The skunk haired boy says as he looks around the maze of old wooden crates.

“With all due respect Enzan-sama, I think the person we are looking for is a girl not a guy.” Blues states as he reaches the final network pathway and starts to gain control of the security systems. “She is located behind the second crate to your right, and she is armed with what looks like a dagger.”

Enzan nods as he continues in the direction he is heading, reaching into his pant pocket to pull out a thin object. A green haired woman dashes quickly out from behind the wooden crate and takes a slash at the boy only to find her target gone.

“Where did he go?” She asks quietly as her eyes look around her.

A click causes her eyes to widen and body to freeze, “You are a quick one Enzan.”

“So are you Dyna. Nice to meet you again.” The boy says as he levels a small folding handgun on the woman from behind, looking her over quickly. “Drop the dagger and turn around slowly.”

Dyna does as she is told, her black outfit clinging to her curves and bulging at the pockets on the front from information disks and other things she has hidden.

“My government won’t stand for this you know.” The woman states as she folds her arms over her chest, “Arresting a diplomat in such a way without cause.”

“I say tampering with and extorting information from private funds is cause enough.” Enzan replies as he keeps the gun trained on her, “Now hand over the information and maybe I can make this disappear.”

The green haired woman smiles as she walks slowly up to him, pulling several chips from the inside of her jacket. “We really have to stop playing these games. Why not just tell me what you want and I’ll get it for you, there is no need for all this hunting.”

Enzan takes the chips slowly from her hand, keeping the gun trained on her. “I think there is, how else are we suppose to keep our skills up, and I have to say that you are getting sloppy Dyna.”

The girl sticks out her tongue as she winks, “Well I have to make sure that you see my trail or I might just slip away. Now can you stop aiming that thing at me?”

He keeps the gun trained on her for a moment then lowers it slowly to his side, “What are you doing here this time Dyna, stealing more money to fund that project of your sisters?”

She shakes her head as she walks over to a crate and hops up on it for a seat, “We monitored some disturbances from a virus holding center and I was sent to check it out to see if it had any relation to some tremors we have been getting from the Ura Net of our country.”

“What did you find out?” Enzan asks curiously, “Something important if you left a trail for me to follow here.”

Dyna nods as she pulls out a small disk from her cleavage, making the boy blush. “It seems at a force is gathering once more using remnant data from the Darkloid and Asteroid factions.”

“This is the first I’ve heard of it and Blues does frequent checks of that area.” The boy says as she tosses him the disk.

“Its mainly in the deeper levels, places where access is very limited. But don’t worry, I’m sure that you two will be able to gain access soon.” She teases as she hops off of the crate, “Now if you excuse me I have to leave before the rest of your group gets here, they are already a block away.”

“She is right Enzan-sama.” Blues states as he appears on the PET, “They will be here in about five minutes.”

“Later kid, have fun with the information.” Dyna’s voice calls from the shadows, having vanished in the few seconds that Enzan had taken his eyes off of her.

“She’s an amazing woman isn’t she Blues.” Enzan comments as he puts his gun away, “But we have gotten what we came for and then some.”

Well, this is... interesting. It's different from the one you had before this furum crashed and got reincarnated. Sad thing is compared to the Transference 3 you had in the old forums of this site, there's no Meijin-san around. I read your other Transference stories and I know how the end of Transference 2 ended. So this new first chapter is a little awkward to me.

About the previous installments of "Transference"...do you have a link so I can read what occurred before I joined?

I have only read through the initial chapters of the first arc, but I am definitely liking what I am reading.

What seems to place you away from the rest is that you primarily write in the progressive tense, and not in the past as many writers do otherwise. I admit, it is a bit of a stretch at first, and can confuse people at points, but it does nothing to detract from the story. Exemplary work.
