I know the title sounds gloomy, but this is actually supposed to be a comedy. This fic is rated PG for some minor action violence. Here's the legal stuff first, plain and simple. I should warn readers beforehand that this story contains spoilers of Rockman EXE: Stream.

I should also warn you that this fic has SOME minor action violence, but the language is overall friendly. A few SLIGHTLY mature jokes scattered, but few and far between overall. This story is rated K+...basically, that means it's pretty much material-friendly to anyone over age 9.

Update: NEW FORMAT!! Now that the Fanfiction.net conversion is complete, you can access all chapters from this post. Chapter names and summaries give you a hint of the insanity to come, and the link to said insanity is below each summary. Happy reading!

LEGAL DISCLAIMER

1. All words in this story are mine. If you wanna use 'em, just ask.

2. All characters except Kenishiro and Adver Man are registered to Capcom and TV Tokyo. If I missed any "Registered To" parties involved, let me know and I'll give you props.

3. Kenishiro and Adver Man are fan characters, made by Sigma.exe for the sole purpose of this fanfic. Use them in your fanfics if you like, but please ask me first!

PART 1: ADVER MAN: THE ULTIMATE EVIL. Kenishiro was just your average living-from-paycheck-to-paycheck salesman at IPC...until a fateful meeting with Slur bestowed him with the ultimate evil: Adver Man!

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2338812/1/

PART 2: SPEAK OF EVIL, AND IT ALREADY CAME. Netto's quite disgruntled about a large order he placed...and actually didn't know about. Turns out Adver Man is up to no good as usual...and it will take the combined efforts of Netto and his friends to save the day.

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2338812/2/

PART 3: HOLDING DOWN THE FORTE. A classic Net Battle showdown between two ultimate evils: the Ultimate Salesman Adver Man and the Ultimate Darkness, everyone's favorite Forte!

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2338812/3/

PART 4: ACTION IS THE BEST POLICY. Netto and company go about doing what they can to deter Adver Man's efforts...but Netto has other plans. Will Adver Man ever be found? Read on and find out!

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2338812/4/

PART 5: CROSS CONFUSION. It's time for a Cross Fusion match...in this corner, Netto, the Oblivious Net Savior! In the other corner...Kenishiro, the Ultimate Salesman!

PART 6: I DON'T LAIKA MARKETING! Laika is forced to intervene in Netto's fight after a series of events compels him to leave the safety of Sharo's military base. Will their combined efforts stop Kenishiro, or will evil have the last laugh?

PART 8: YOU TOO, METOOLS. Looks like Slur's becoming a new companion for Operation: Stop Telemarketing. First, she has some new info about Adver Man's weakness...what could her informative slide show reveal?

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2338812/10/

PART 11: ENZAN'S WIFE. Side story madness! Yes...even Enzan knows how to swing it when it comes to commitment, and Kristen is...or at least WAS supposed to be the lucky girl. Can the conflict of their turbulent past be resolved?

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2338812/11/

PART 12: DOPEY, ULTIMATE METOOL OF DIVERSION. Dopey the Metool. The ultimate distractive force. Many an opponent has been mystified by his stupidity, and overwhelmed by his power. There are those who know him, and those who have faced him in battle. No matter what the outcome, each of his opponents has been mystified and horrified by his raging and intimidating battle cry..."D'UUUHHHH!!!"

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2338812/12/

PART 13: THE PERFECT NAVI VS. THE ULTIMATE FLIRT. Rockman and friends set off a chain reaction in the URA Internet that frees none other than...SLAPPY! The ultimate flirt! It's now up to Serenade and Slur...but mostly Serenade...to save the day! (Note: Suggestive humor, OOC Slur, OOC Serenade.)

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2338812/13/

PART 14: FORCED GLUTTONY. When Netto and the gang learn that Kenishiro has employed Angry and Hungry to get rid of them, Netto learns the presence of another ultimate technique...which carries with it a tragic end for all who fail to use it properly.

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2338812/14/

PART 15: THE CALM BEFORE THE DINNER. Kenishiro has a new sinister technique to teach Angry and Hungry, to combat Forced Gluttony. In the meantime, Netto and Meiru must train hard to be able to use this fearsome use-it-or-lose-it technique. Will they be ready by the time Angry and Hungry arrive...or will the Internet become a living hell?

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2338812/15/

PART 16: FORCED GLUTTONY VS. SPOILED BABY. When Netto is locked in desperate combat with Angry and Hungry, he must unleash a technique so powerful it could mean his own death. But thanks to a mysterious shadowed figure, he now has an edge in this fight...but will this edge be sharp enough to cut evil asunder?

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2338812/16/

PART 17: MY WORLD HAS ENDED. Happy makes a heck of an entrance...with a monstrous demonstration of his power of annoying happiness. Read on, and you'll see why Netto thought this to himself.

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2338812/17/

PART 18: ...AND NEO WORLD THREE HAS ENDED TOO. Adver Man's twisted subordinate Happy continues his assault...but this time, Netto and his friends are not the target.

PART 20: BATTLE FOR MY PICTURES! SLUR SHARK SOUL VS. HAPPY. When desperate times call for desperate measures, Slur contracts some outside help to defeat Happy the Metool...but will it be enough?

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2338812/20/

PART 21: THE ULTIMATE VIRUS, BAKA-NEKO. And so Happy and the Adver Metools were destroyed...but not before leaving the gang with a parting gift.

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2338812/21/

PART 22: BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHOINA. Adver Man's newest threat comes with a new set of surprises as Netto and Shuuko head to Choina on a mission to deter the power of Baka-Neko...but Forte and Tesla develop some sinister plans to intercept them first! Will Baka-Neko be stopped in time...or will Rockman, Slur, Aquaman, and Forte remain Nekos forever?

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2338812/22/

PART 23: SEARCHING FOR THE CHIBI-NEKO. As the wicked side effects of the Chibi Neko Virus become apparent, more parties join in the fray to take advantage of this powerful virus.

...okay. That was odd. And very, very screwily innovative. I love it. Slur seems to be a bit more emotional than normal in this one, but due to the circumstances, that can hardly be counted as a fault.

This is quite an interesting idea, and pulled off well. I'd love to see more.

I love this! Please write more!

Hee hee ...

Okay, first of all, that was great! I loved the overall wackyness, kudos to you.

Also, please label this fic as stream spoilers, not everyone has seen Rockman Stream yet.

Hey, thanks a lot for everyone's feedback. I know Slur seems a little more emotional than usual, but honestly, it's hard to work with, much less write about a dull person without being tempted to exaggerate SOMETHING...my co-workers know this fact. Yes, my sense of humor is rather extreme (and admittedly disturbing), but that's the principle of this story.

I'll update with a sequel soon, I promise. In the meantime, glad you enjoyed it! >_<

This is excellent. Very creative and funny, and well written. I like the anime-style parts.

May · Posted: Sun Mar 27, 2005 11:52 am Post subject:

Very creative indeed =) Poor Slur, everyone makes mistakes sometime. How did the original Adver Man lose his life?

Sigma.exe · Posted: Sun Mar 27, 2005 4:11 pm Post subject: Adver Man's Background

Interesting question; actually, I don't believe Adver Man was destroyed. He is technically an original Navi, meaning he just came out of nowhere spontaneously. Either that, or Duo just got tired of having a throw-away character hanging around on his asteroid and had Slur give him to a desperate salesman. Adver Man's just that kind of guy. -.-

'Twas Excellent. Seriously, and very innovative. An advertising navi? Genious. ^-^

That was just...insanely funny. Adver Man has the ULTIMATE attack, bringing even Slur "to her knees".

Write more! Please-! :D

Hey everyone! I promised a sequel, and here it is! Even more senseless hilarity here, to fill your needs for it. All the same rules apply: No taking my hard-worked (as in hardly working) material or characters without permission, and all copyrighted characters belong to Capcom and TV Tokyo.

There is a subtle Stream spoiler in here, so you don't have to read if it'll spoil Stream for you. I also have a spoiler about Enzan's unnamed girlfriend; she's unnamed so as not to crush the hopes of all you fangirls out there. It seems I forgot to warn about some Stream spoilers in Part I, and I apologize profusely to the admins. I recently edited the title to make sure it provided the proper warnings.

And now, enjoy Part II!

Oh... This is actually something, a humor fic I enjoy! I love the random comedy that somehow makes sense.

Hilarious~ Enzan seems a little OOC, but who knows - he might actually end up like that Smile

Good job.

So...funny. *passes out* *gets back up* Seriously, it was hilarious, and well written. Great job!

Sigma.exe · Posted: Mon Mar 28, 2005 5:16 pm Post subject: Sequel coming...soon...

Hey everyone, thanks again for all the feedback! It's great to know my humor can at least have a part in making some lives a little more surreal. Ya...I really HATE telemarketing, ever since my number somehow leaked out to ad companies on the Net. Learn from my mistakes...NEVER give out your info to Adver Man!

Updates might be a little slow from now on, since I'm also using my spring break to work on some fanart (colored pencils RULE!). The sequel, though, will be just as great. (Spoiler alert: an actual fight scene! Don't miss it!)
