Custom Robo Dimensions Redux

[Hydra450]

Author's Note: I decided to try and make a better "Custom Robo Dimensions", with a few or so changes. I do not own Custom Robo, Noise does! Anything/Everything else that I would cross it over with, are not mine either, excuse my rather flimsy grammar.

Introductory Chapter

Hi, my name is Alex Geary, a Custom Robo Commander and a member of the International Police Corps. It has been three months since I've beat the Grudge Match, and becoming a member of the IPC. I'm also the World Champion, after beating Eddy Trainer in the Robo Cup. Not only that, I've also become official with his younger sister, Liv, who acted as my coach on my journey to become the Champ, and before that, me Dennis, and Liv fought in the Team Battle and our team, Team Numero Uno, has become number 1 in the world. Plus, I also go out with Liv when I'm off-duty, but sometimes, I'd spend time with both her and Dennis, with occasional challenges to Robo Battles from some of my peers at Midheart High and such, especially that goofball, Marv. Little did I know, that they and I will go on adventures spanning an alternate world or two.

Chapter 1A: Enter C.C. and Excalibur! Part 1

Now, before we could get to the part where Liv, Dennis, and I get zapped into an alternate reality, I'd just thought I'd tell you about the time I encountered this mysterious cloaked Commander with this really rare Strike Vanisher that's named after that mythical sword wielded by King Arthur. I was on patrol in Central City one day, when I heard a shout coming from the park. I rushed there to a hectic sight; Some of the local Commanders getting their rears kicked, one by one, by a new guy in a cloak. "What's going on here?", I ask to a nearby kid. He replied, "Hey, Alex, this guy in the cloak over there is kicking our butts left and right with this really cool-looking and powerful red Robo. It's a Strike Vanisher, too!"

"Thanks, kid," I replied, before I went over to the cloaked figure. I cleared my throat loud enough to get his attention. He turned to me and said, "Well, what do you know? It's the famous Alex Geary. I'm honored to meet you. My name is not important at this moment, but you can call me the Cloaked Commander, C.C. for short, for now." I narrowed my eyes before asking C.C., "Alright, C.C., what do you want?" C.C. chuckled coyly before replying, "Why, I wanted to battle the World Champion Custom Robo Commander, to see how powerful he is" I smiled confidently and remarked, "You're talking to him, but as you can see, I'm on patrol, so I'll battle you later, when I'm off-duty!" C.C. replied calmly, "Right then, I'll see you later." One of the kids then said, "Gee, I thought he'd overreact because Alex refused to accept his challenge. You know how famous Alex is!", and the rest of them agreed, with things like, "Yeah!", and "I'm surprised he'd understand that he had stay on duty!"

I left the park to get back to my patrol route. The rest of the day had been dull, as nothing exciting happened around Central City. I returned the Police HQ to confirm that my shift has been finished, and when I did, I reminded myself to get to the park to meet C.C. again. Little did I know that this "red Robo" I might battle in the Holosseum, might give me and my Ray Mk. III a run for our money.

So, what do you think?

Chapter 1B: Enter C.C. and Excalibur! Part 2

After finishing my patrol route for the day, I went over to the park to meet with C.C. for my Robo Battle with him. When I got there, I saw him tossing his Robo Cube up and down. He smiled and asks me, "Hey, you ready for our battle?". I replied with confidence, "You betcha!", as we prepared the portable Holosseum for the action to come. I equipped my Ray Mk. III with Plus One Legs, Sinper Gun, Satellite Pod, and Standard Bomb F, before folding him back into Robo Cube form. I then asked C.C., "May I see your Strike Vanisher? I wanted to know what it looks like and what weapon it was named after." C.C.'s smiled widened more as he unfolded his Robo from the Cube, and I was treated to the sight of what may be the coolest-looking Strike Vanisher I've ever seen. It was red with parts of olive green, yellow, and grey.

(author's note: Go to images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100909003058/customrobo/images/f/fa/Excalibur.png to see what it looks like)

C.C. said, "Say hello to Excalibur, a limited-production Strike Vanisher that not only looks incredibly cool, but is also powerful--Power-style powerful!", as he held up his red Robo in the palm of his hand. Limited-production, hmm? This makes Excalibur no doubt ultra-rare. After prepping our Robos for the battle, we dived to start the battle. In the Holosseum, the Robo Cannon launched our Robo Cubes onto the battlefield, which is No-Man's Land. "Perfect", I thought as I then noticed that both our Robo Cubes landed on the red face, "This is going to be intense!". The moment our Robos finished the transformation from Robo Cube to Custom Robo, I reacted quickly enough to give Excalibur a good Charge Attack from Ray Mk. III, which knocked the Strike Vanisher back, before I shot him with the Sniper Gun. Excalibur gets back up and Rebirthed, before firing what appeared to be a more streamlined version of the Sniper Gun. I dodged the projectile as it then hit the wall, exploding with a X-Type blast. Surprising isn't it? I asked C.C. through my Ray Mk. III in a shocked tone, "What the heck is this gun?! Is that an illegal part?!". C.C. chuckled before explaining through Excalibur, "No, it's not an illegal part. This here, is the Dober Gun (author's note: Gundam Wing reference! XD), developed by Lambda Limited, but never made it past the prototype stage, because they thought it would be too easily 'spammable' in battle!" I shivered...not in fear, but also in an excited anxiety. For minutes on end, we clashed our Robos, Sniper Gun to Dober Gun, Standard Bomb F to Wall Bomb, Satelite H Pod to Spider Pod. C.C. then said with a determined tone, "Time for me to get serious!!", as Excalibur then took on that familiar golden glow--Soulboost! I summoned the Soulboost in response. We were charging towards each other, and I noticed Excalibur about to fire the Dober Gun near the last possible second, so I did something even C.C. wouldn't have expected--I veered to the right before landing one last Charge Attack to end the battle.

After we returned our Robos and the portable Holosseum folded up, C.C. said to me, "Wow, now that was a potent battle. I guess my power is almost equal to yours", when I countered, "To be frank, I just caught you off guard when you were about to fire that Dober Gun at me at the last possible second!". We shook hands, before I departed for home.

Next time on Custom Robo Dimensions, we see Team Numero Uno beating a team-based Robo Battle tournament and becoming test subjects for three prototype interdimensional transport bracelets. Our heroes try them out, and were tossed through the fabric of time and space by the bracelets into a brave new world. What could this world have? What dangers will they face? Find out, readers, in Chapter 2 of Custom Robo Dimensions!

Chapter 2A: Enter a New World! Part 1

Now, this is where the adventure began. It all started when me, Liv, and Dennis won in the CRA's first Custom Robo 3-on-3 Battle Tourney. Of course, as the name implies, it's a tournament where a team of three Robo Commanders battles against other teams until only one was left. The tourney also acted as an unveiling of a new Holosseum upgrade module developed by NeoBrain, that increases the capacity for the number of Robos that can be in Holosseum at one time, particularly by 2, making it so that up to six Robos can be deployed into the arena of the Holosseum simultaneously, and it's also compatible with the portable models. The upgrade module is also used in the Holosseums of the 3-on-3 Battle Tourney, and from what I've read in Robotix magazine, will go on sale later this year. The Super Novas team from Harbor City's Bayside Academy were in it, too, and were our opponents in the finals. Dennis took on Solax with his Trick Flyer Robo, Mantis, whereas Liv fought Lunax with her original Ray (with that powerful Sagittarius Gun), and I mixed it up with Terrax with my Ray Mk. III.

When we've beat the Super Novas, we each earned $1000 in cash, and with those cash prizes, are our own copies of the upgrade module, each one coming with a maintenance kit. Liv, Dennis, and I decided to celebrate our sweet victory with a day on Harbor City. Well, Eddy decided to come along with us, to make sure we don't get into too much trouble. As a safety precaution, me and Dennis also gave Eddy our home phone numbers in case something bad happened, and he would contact our families, so they'd know about it. Anyways, we went to that new seafood restaurant, Pirate Ship Seafood, to eat there. I was having fish and chips, Liv and Eddy were having lobster meat, and Dennis was eating shrimp scampi.

After our dinner, we decided to go to the Robo Center in Central to work off our meal in a four-player Custom Robo Battle. On our way to the Robo Center, we met up with a NeoBrain employee (whose name I shall not reveal), who asked us to help him test out a new invention at the NeoBrain building. I ask him, "Does my dad know about it?", to which he replied, "Yes, he does, and I also told him that I would take full responsibility if something went horribly, horribly wrong!". Anyways, we went to the NeoBrain building, and apparently, his lab is next to my dad's. "Hey", says Dennis to me, "I wonder what this new invention would be like, do you?". I replied, "Yeah, I wonder as well. I mean, I hear that inter-dimensional travel is a really hot topic for scientific research right now. I just hope we know what we're all doing!". Liv puts on a cocky smirk and remarked, "Relax, you guys, the scientist guy said he'd take full responsibility if things went out of whack! Plus, you also gave Eddy your home phone numbers."

When the scientist lead us to his lab, he pointed to a table near one of the computer terminals. On this table, are a series of four shiny, high tech-looking arm braces with hi-res touchscreens on them. One of them has a miniature satellite dish-style antenna. "Boys and girls, say hello to my inter-dimensional transport gauntlets," the scientist started proudly as he continued, "Seeing as alternate realities are a hot topic among many circles of scientists right now, I started development on these babies. I spent a whole month considering whether or not to build them, because I had a fear of a higher power that is objectionable to mankind traveling to other realities."

"Shiny!", remarked Liv about the gauntlets, before asking, "So what do they do?" The scientist replied, "I thought you'd never ask! Each gauntlet is capable of creating a wormhole which the user can use to travel to other dimensions. I'm giving you kids three of the prototypes. As a safety precaution, I'm giving Eddy the forth one, which I modified to be able to lock on to the signatures and coordinates of the other three gauntlets." After the scientist finished his explanation, me, Liv, and Dennis each took a gauntlet, and I have to admit, it looks really cool on my arm. "Another thing; Each bracelet has 5-digit alpha-numerical coordinates for our reality if you want to get back here after you spend some time in an alternate reality that you would enter with the gauntlets. Plus, they also determine the coordinates for every alternate reality you visit," added the scientist.

"Alright, then, let's see what these puppies can do!", smirks Liv. The scientist replied, "Such enthusiasm! Alright then, kids, aim your guantlets at that bull's-eye over that there!", as he pointed towards a bull's-eye, "But before that...Eddy, lock your gauntlet onto the signatures of the other three." Eddy simply nodded before aiming the antenna of his gauntlet at ours, and after a moment of silence, the gauntlet droned in a computerized voice, "Signatures locked!" Dennis, Liv, and I then aimed our gauntlets at the bull's-eye. I start, "Opening a wormhole in 3..."

"2..."

"1..."

We pressed the triggering buttons on our gauntlets, as three beams came out of them before crossing, forming a wormhole that is 8 feet tall and 8 feet wide. "The gauntlets...", the scientist started, "They've created a wormhole! I did it! I've created an actual working inter-dimensional transport device...well, technically four of them, but anyways, I've done it! Nothing could ruin this experiment, but I must not forget; I have to take full responsibility if something went horribly wrong, and to take my punishment like a man!", and at the last part, he puts a fist to his chest. Liv says in wonder, "Wow, look at that wormhole, guys. I wonder where it leads! I also wonder what will come out of it!". Dennis was about to reply, when we heard a familiar voice saying to the scientist, "I hope you know what you're doing, (name withheld)."

It was my dad, Dr. Edvin Geary. You see, I got my Ray Mk. III from him after I've outgrown the older Lambda Ltd. Ray Mk. II. The scientist replied to him, "Don't worry, Dr. Geary! If they can handle themselves, I'm sure that they'll return just fine!" I was about to greet my dad, when we felt a powerful force pulling us into the portal. We've struggled to keep ourselves becoming sucked in, but our curiosity had peaked to what world could be on the other side, so we dove into the portal, and we were in a tunnel of light and colors as we crossed over through the inter-dimensional boundaries...

I could do with a co-author, please!

Chapter 2B: Enter a New World! Part 2

A/N: Me and Riku are co-authors now! We'll each make paragraphs for the chapters.


After what seemed to be an eternity of flying through the tunnel, we saw a light ahead. Liv, Dennis, and I flew towards it, because this light meant the end of the dimensional tunnel, and into a new world. When the light faded, the three of us found ourselves at what appears to be a playground, complete with a sandbox. "Wow", started Liv, "Never would have expected to end up in a playground of all places. Looks like a nice place, too." Dennis nodded in agreement, as I then had my gauntlet determine this new world's dimensional address. When it finished, the gauntlet transmitted the data for the address to Liv and Dennis'. I said to them, "These are the co-ordinates for this world, so don't forget them," before I suggested, "Anyways, let's ask some of the locals where we are." Before we could do anything else, we heard a voice yell to us, "Hey you!". We turned around fast to see a blonde kid with a green backpack. He also wears black shorts and a white t-shirt with red highlights on it. In his right hand is what appeared to be a high-tech-looking briefcase. It's silvery with red ridges around it, and on the front is what appears to be a lens of some sort. Below it is a black line with rounded edges and a red light going back and forth on it, something like Knight Rider. The blonde kid also had a cautious look on his face, and it looked as if he's seeing if we're a threat or not. I asked the kid, "What is it you want, kid?", to which he replied, "I've never seen you three around here before, so what I wanna know if you're Death Commanders or not!" Liv started steaming at the boy, "Death Commanders?! I dunno what you're talking about, buddy-boy, but we're not bad guys!" The kid yells back, "The name is Kou, not buddy-boy! If you wanna start something, I'll finish it!", as he sets the briefcase down, and it a glowing ball of light came out of the lens, before it turned into what appeared to be a palm-sized, humanoid robot with a red-colored armor and a single-edged sword on its back. I warned to Liv and Dennis, "Stand back, I got this one!", as I took my Ray Mk. III's Robo Cube out of my Toolbox, disengaged its security lock, and the Shining Fighter sets up as I dived into it for the battle.

I had also equipped an Afterburner Gun to my Robo, as well as a Reflection Pod, Direct Bomb, and Formula Legs. I controlled my Robo to run towards my foe while releasing my Pod bombs. I then fired off my Afterburner while running, then used my Charge Attack. G Red, which is the red robot I'm fighting, jumped over one of the bombs of the Reflector and sliced it in half with his sword, but took the full brunt of the Afterburner's missiles. I miscalculated and my Charge Attack missed, leaving me open. G Red then began punching at me, damaging my parts, as I then shot my Direct Bombs at him. We were so close to each other when I did that, I took a little damage from the explosions, but I was able to escape and continued firing at him. He fired his three-barreled beam pistol as I replied with the Afterburner, dodging each other's projectiles. I then saw G Red assuming a bluish, Soulboost-like glow, so I followed and used my Soulboost. G Red shouted, "Neo G Crash!!", as he used what looked like a Charge Attack with his sword, and I used mine. Suddenly, a barrage of red shuriken-like projectiles flew by between us and we both stopped. We looked in the direction it came from and saw an army of small, black, generic-looking robots, each one with a singular red eye, charging towards us. "Watch out, it's the Death Force!", Kou warned to his robot partner, to which he replied, "I'm on it!", as he started firing at these strange black robots. "It must be Greybaum!", I assumed to myself, having misheard Kou . I had Ray Mk. III charge in, and back to back with G Red, fighting off the apparently-frail black robots.

After we've finished the last of the black robots and returning our respective machines, I had some questions to ask. "Kou", I started, "What were those things that interrupted our battle?", to which he replied, "Those were Death Borgs, the evil minions of the Death Force, an army of Gotcha Borgs that fight to conquer and destroy!". Gotcha Borgs? Death Borgs? Death Force? The three of us were confused beyond belief, as G Red then came to us, before landing in my open hand and asking, "You don't know what Gotcha Borgs are, don't you?", to which Liv replied exasperatedly, "Of course we don't, what do you expect?!" I admonished to my eternal rival/girlfriend, "Cool it, Liv!", before turning to G Red, "Go ahead." The red robot then explained to us about the Gotcha Borgs, a race of toy-like alien robots from the planet MegaBorg, which had been destroyed in the past by the Death Force, an evil group of these robots lead by an extremely powerful Borg named the Galactic Emperor. The Gotcha Borgs come in all shapes, sizes, types, rarities (depending on the coloration), and tribes (of which there are at least 20). Kou's G Red comes from the Machine Borg tribe, who are known for their all-around capabilities in combat. The Death Borgs are a tribe all their own, and each type of Death Borg is based on a different Gotcha Borg tribe. The Death Borgs we fought were the Alpha models, who are based on the Ninja Borgs. The Galactic Emperor comes from the Fortress Borg tribe, and they may be bigger targets, but their hit points and offensive capabilities are amazing. There are over 200 types of Gotcha Borgs, with new ones showing up all the time. The briefcase-like object Kou has, is a Gotcha Box, a device for storing and cloning Gotcha Borgs and Data Crystals (they're these items that contain the blueprints of more advanced Borgs), and assembling teams of Gotcha Borgs, which are called Forces. The Gotcha Boxes were also originally spacecraft used by the Gotcha Borgs to escape MegaBorg when the Death Force destroyed the planet, and they ended up at Earth. A person who controls a Force of Gotcha Borgs is called a GF Commander, and a GF Commander who works for the Death Force is called a Death Commander. The Borgs are also powered by GF Energy, which is created from the fighting courage of the GF Commander. The Death Force also used evil methods to create GF Energy. Kou happens to be the leader of heroic a group of GF Commanders and Gotcha Borgs, called the Gotcha Force, who have defeated the Galactic Emperor just a month ago, and now the Death Force is back. Wait, how did I assume that those Death Borgs were the work of Greybaum? Last I know, they were locked up after the whole Hadron incident on Encephalon (I must have minor ear infection or something).

Anyways, since he explained what the Gotcha Borgs are, I thought it would be fair that I explain about Custom Robos to Kou. He replied with an enthusiastic tone, "Wow, those Robos sound really cool! You can customize them, battle them in these holographic arenas, and you can control them with your brainwaves, too!", before asking, "So, how'd you three got here around these parts in Sahari Town?". So, that's the name of the town we're in. Liv replied to him, "It's a long story, so you better keep your ears open to hear the whole doggone thing!", before I began explaining my world, and the gauntlets, which brought us to this reality. Kou was practically in awe when I, Liv, and Dennis told everything. "To think you've taken down a criminal organization, destroying an evil, super-powered illegal robot, and saving the world from total destruction! Must be all in a day's work!", he said with an eager smile, to which I replied, "That's putting it lightly, Kou," before continuing, "Anyways, you've let us see your G Red, so I think it's reasonable that I let you have a look at my Ray Mk. III!" Kou remarked, "I've seen your robot in action when you fought my G Red before the Death Force interrupted our battle, and I gotta admit, he looked cool, and you also fought good with him, too! Like a champion or something!", to which Dennis replied, "Well, as a matter of fact, Alex is the World Champion in Custom Robo!" Kou got excited at the response and asked, "Wow! Really?!", to which I replied by nodding 'yes'.

Hey guys, how do you think I should start Chapter 3?

[Hydra450]

Chapter 3A: Meet the Gotcha Force! Part 1

Now, before Kou could introduce us to the other members of the Gotcha Force, he used his Gotcha Box to read me, Liv, and Dennis' GF Energy levels, if any. Kou told us beforehand that his GF Energy capacity is 3500, a result of fighting hundreds of Death Force units around the town, alongside his compatriots. Kou then used his Gotcha Box to read our capacities. My GF Energy capacity is 3400, Liv's levels are at least 100 units below me, and Dennis' GF Energy levels are at 2000. Kou was surprised at me and Liv's levels, and I could practically hear him wonder to himself, "Could it have something to do with all these other Robo Commanders they fought? Or maybe all the times Soulboost was used?". Anyways, Kou then took us around the town. During our walkthrough of Sahari Town, we noticed that a lot of people here are peacefully co-existing with the Gotcha Borgs. Kou then asked the three of us if we wanted to become GF Commanders in addition to being Robo Commanders. Dennis replied, "I don't see why not. It'd be interesting to see what I can do in a Gotcha Borg battle, and hopefully, I'd do good!". Liv smirked and remarked, "I already kick butt as a Robo Commander, but as a GF Commander? Bring it on!". Kou asks me, "So, whaddya say, Alex?". I thought for a moment and replied, by nodding 'yes'.

Seeing as each of us don't have a Gotcha Box, much less partner Borgs, Kou decided to get us some. Apparently, there's this toy store in the downtown area that gives out Gotcha Boxes to new GF Commanders, for free. He took us there to get our Gotcha Boxes. I've gotten a red one like Kou's, Liv gets a blue one, and Dennis gets a green one. My Gotcha Box included a Normal Ninja from the Ninja Borg tribe, and a Revolver Gunman, which kinda resembles a wild western gunslinger, and is from the Gun Borg tribe. Liv's Gotcha Box came with two Girl Borgs (female equivalent of Gun Borgs); Battle Girl, which carries a sub-machine gun and a missile, and Wire Girl, who has a Charge Gun and a Wire Anchor. Dennis' Gotcha Box came with Alien Insect, from the Bug Borg tribe, and a Normal Tank, from the Tank Borg tribe. All that's left is to get ourselves partner Borgs to go with our initial Borgs. For my partner Borg, I've gotten a new Machine Borg who is based on G Red's design, called G Custom--A Borg that can be customized! He uses the same three-barreled beam pistol, but it can be swapped out for other long-range weapons, such as a rocket launcher, an assault rifle, and even a flamethrower. Of course, like G Red, G Custom also possesses a single-edged sword, but it can also be swapped out for different melee weapons, as well, like a beam saber, war hammer, an axe, a mace, you name it! Of course, the body parts (except for the head) can be changed, too. I wonder if he'll be compatible with Custom Robo parts. We'll find out after Liv and Dennis get their partner Borgs. For Liv's partner Borg, she's got a brunette, Long range-type Girl Borg named Mikoto, who is a Killer Girl, an assassin armed with a katana and an assault rifle that can transform and fire a Buster Killer Laser. The Buster Killer Laser is a weapon that fires a powerful, explosive laser blast with pinpoint accuracy. Of course, there are other Borgs with similar weapons, one of which being a variant of G Red's model. Anyways, Dennis has acquired his partner Borg, in the form of a Beam Tank named Rommel. Beam Tanks, from what I understand, are usually armed with a twin Mega Beam cannon, Triple Shot, and a large drill for melee attacks. These powerful Tank Borgs are seldom fought in groups of three, and from what Kou told me, fighting three Beam Tanks is a practical suicide mission, as they often use their Mega Beam cannons, and when an enemy Borg gets close enough, they use their drills.

Now that we've gotten our partner Borgs, it was time for Kou to introduce us to the other members of the Gotcha Force. He told us, that a week after the defeat of the Galactic Emperor, he and the other members established a clubhouse on Little Hill, which is where he and G Red first met, when the Gotcha Borgs arrived on Earth. He took us there, and sure enough, there's a clubhouse. It is the size of a small guest house, so the members would all fit in there. It's not the best-looking, but it's modest. "Welcome", started Kou, "To our clubhouse. Sure it's not exactly the coolest-looking, but it serves well." Liv was about to comment about our clubhouse back home in Midheart City, when we noticed someone, most likely a Gotcha Force member, coming out of the Gotcha Force clubhouse. He is a boy with ash gray hair, light tan skin tone, and a serious look on his face, something like Sasuke Uchiha from that Shonen Jump manga series, Naruto. He is wearing a black and purple jacket, with black and grey pants, shoes of the same colors with red rubber soles, and red gloves. In his right hand is a purple Gotcha Box, and hovering to his left is a large, devil-winged Gotcha Borg with an intimidating appearance. He has clawed hands, with a big, scary-looking blade in one of them, tusks in his fanged mouth, and darkish-colored armor. One more thing, he also has bright red skin.

"So, who are these guys?", asks the boy, "New recruits for the Gotcha Force?", to which Kou replied, "I've just met them, and they've just got their Gotcha Boxes and partner Borgs. They're kinda new, but I'm seeing some potential in these guys." The boy remarks after giving us a quick glance, "Hmm. These three don't look so tough. Garuda can take their partner Borgs down easily." Liv got angered by the gray-headed boy's comment, and asks him irritably, "Hold up there, Buster Brown! Are you saying that your Borg can beat ours?!", to which he replied with a serious tone, "My name is Sho, not Buster Brown! I don't think Garuda can beat you, I know that he can!", as he and Liv started to stare each other down, something like a wild western showdown at high noon. Kou's face took on a worried expression, and warns to them, "Hey, don't start, you two!", to which they pointed to each other, insisting that the other started it. I asked Kou, "Who is this guy? He seems quite serious!", and he replied, "That's Sho Takami, he specializes in Wing Borgs, and is not afraid to use these high-flying Borgs in battle. His partner Borg, Garuda, is no slouch, coming from a ruthless race of destructive Wing Borgs called Anubis Wings, and boy are they nasty!", to which G Red adds, "Not only that, but a Force consisting of these ancient, sky-high terrors called the Anubis Force are said to have ravaged MegaBorg three times." At the mention of the word 'ancient', Liv asked, "Whaddya mean by ancient?!", to which G Red replied, "The Anubis Wings existed in ancient times on MegaBorg, and centuries after they died out, they were resurrected in a secret ceremony."

Part 1 end

[Hydra450]

Chapter 3B: Meet the Gotcha Force! Part 2

After our interaction with Sho Takami, Kou decided to introduce us to the other members of the Gotcha Force. First up is a brunette named Kakeru Inui, whom Kou met after becoming G Red's GF Commander. Kakeru's a bit more laid back than Kou. Despite that, he specializes in Ninja Borgs, and as such, his partner Borg is a red-haired Normal Ninja named Sasuke, who is mischievous and wields a sword named Tsunujimaru. Like all other Normal Ninjas, Sasuke is a member of an organization of these Borgs called the Assassination Unit, and is also equipped with Shurikens and Shinobi Bombs. Next up is a sweet and gentle blonde girl named Mana Umihara, who specializes in the Support-Type Nurse Borgs, also using Wizard Borgs, which are also Support-Types. Her partner Borg is a blonde Angel Nurse named Nao, who is as gentle as her Commander. Like all other Nurse Borgs, Nao is equipped with a large syringe that can heal allies in battle, although they can shoot weak projectiles, too. Then, there's an energetic redhead named Usagi Kurokawa, and she's got a taste for sports. She has a bit of an ego in her, but her friendly and casual nature rules it out completely. Usagi specializes in Girl Borgs, and her partner is a cool-headed Battle Girl in red named Kei, who served as a secret agent on MegaBorg. Of course, Usagi also uses Angel Borgs, which are capable of flying, similar to Wing Borgs, and are Support-Types.

Still to come, there's Tsutomu Katoru, who would rather do his homework and think and debate, than play or idle. He uses Tank Borgs, and Air Borgs, too; the vehicular-type Borgs. Tsutomu's partner is a yellow Normal Tank named Leopard, whose character is as strong as his armor. Akio Koyama is his name, and making mischief is his game. He's usually referred to by the nickname of "Kitsune", because of it. He uses Machine Borgs, and his partner Borg is a purple Claw Robot named Isaac, who is more serious than he looks; a contrast to the nature of his GF Commander. Next is Nekobe--Katsumi Nekobe to be precise. He's a cowardly guy, and hides it by bullying others. He's never too fond of practicing; Nekobe likes to play dirty when in a Gotcha Borg battle. He is usually seen with Kitsune, often causing trouble together. Over time, Kitsune became independent of Nekobe, shortly after he was separated from him when the Death Force attacked the town. Even when the Death Force were at their most intimidating, Nekobe remained courageous and steadfast to the Gotcha Force, never willing to back down from any challenge. He uses Knight Borgs, and his partner is an egotistical Vampire Knight in purple armor named Vlad. Like all other Vampire Knights, his hit points gradually go down during battle, and must restore his health by slashing his enemies. Vlad has a pair of life-draining swords collectively known as the Shadow Bringer. At one point, Nekobe tried partnering up with Mana and Usagi, but was rejected.

Tetsuya Sawatari is next up. This energetic, dark-skinned boy with the afro never backs down from a challenge. He is known for his use of Musha Borgs (though also using Knight Borgs), and his parnter is a Normal Samurai named Musashi, who is more polite than his GF Commander. He is armed with two swords named Kazinmaru and Furinmaru. Musashi's most damaging attack is the Rolling Sword, in which he spins with his swords into the air. Masamune Onda (A.K.A. Met) is a guy fascinated with the military in general to the point of dressing up like a soldier. He would rather be at home, coming up with battle strategies than play like other kids in Sahari Town. He mainly uses a combination of Tank, Ninja, and Bug Borgs, also utilizing Support-Type Borgs. His partner is a green Arrow Ninja from the Assassination Unit named Shijima. Like all other Arrow Ninjas, Shijima is among the smartest of the Assassination Unit. He has the Ninpo Kagenui Arrow, which allows him to trap his foes in place, provided he doesn't fire them at his allies. With that helmet always on (and being a Borg of a few words), it's hard to tell what his emotions are. A few times, Kou invited Met to join the Gotcha Force, but the latter refused, until one time, he fell under attack from a Force of Fortress Borgs. Met joined the Gotcha Force out of necessity after Kou saved him. Next there's Kotaro Shimano, one of the younger members of the Gotcha Force. Kou met him when the latter was being bullied by Kitsune and Nekobe. He was initially weak, due to being young and not being as experienced as the other GF Commanders, but he became formidable after training with Tetsuya. He specializes in Gun Borgs, and his partner is a cool, blue-haired Revolver Gunman named Billy, and wields the twin revolvers Rhythm and Blues. He also wears sunglasses, as well.

We already met Sho Takami, and what kind of Borg he specializes in, and who his parnter Borg is, but we did learn something else about him; He originally wanted revenge on the Gotcha Borgs in general, because his father was killed by Gotcha Borgs at one point. He took on Garuda, who liked to use his power to destroy other Borgs no matter what side they're on, as his partner. He and Kou had a fierce rivalry, too. Kind of like Lan Hikari and Eugene Chaud from Megaman NT Warrior. Liv found a kindred spirit in Sho, especially since her dad was killed by Scythe's illegal Robo, Katana, years ago, so she promptly made up with the Wing Borg specialist. "Seems we have something in common, Liv", remarked Sho as he shook hands with the brunette, "We both had our fathers killed, and the only difference is that your brother was the one who wanted revenge." Then, there's Tama Tamagawa, who once fought for the Death Force. He's a tubby little boy who is spoiled rotten, and is usually seen with his little sailor ensemble. At times, one would see the little brat eating either a hamburger or an ice cream cone, in which case he's having a hamburger. Tama joined the Gotcha Force when the Death Force turned on him for his incompetence, and was saved by Kou. He never takes things in Gotcha Borg battles too seriously, resulting in his failures in the Death Force to defeat Kou and his friends. He specializes in Fortress Borgs, and his partner is a large battleship-type Fortress Borg named Death Arc, who was given to Tama by the Galactic Emperor when the former joined the Death Force. Death Arc is armed to the teeth with plenty of hit points to spare. Second-to-last, there's Rin Nishikiori, who, like Tama, is also an ex-Death Commander. She was originally under the Galactic Emperor's mind control, and went by the name of "Orochi", after the eight-headed serpent from Shinto mythology. Originally, her partner was an evil, power-hungry Knight Borg named Dark Knight, who wielded the twin swords Sol and Star. He also stole G Red's data back on MegaBorg when the Death Force invaded it. When Dark Knight was defeated, and G Red regained his true power, Orochi has gained a new partner Borg, in the form of a Demon Borg named Death Wing, who resulted from a freak mutation. Death Wing, as his name suggests, is a Demon Borg based on the Wing Borg tribe, and he wields the feared Death Scythe, which was summoned from the Other World. To this day, he is still Rin's partner. Last, but certainly not least, there's Yuji Araki, and to say that he's kinda weird is an understatement. During battles, he would say random things, like pop culture quotes, tongue twisters, proverbs, and such. He never took battling too seriously. Yuji specializes in Knuckle Borgs, which are the mixed nuts among the Gotcha Borgs. His partner is a pink Jelly Diver named Jack, who has a sunny personality, but a hot temper. Like all other Jelly Divers, Jack has the Jelly Scope, which generates a spherical barrier of water that can slow down any Borg that gets into its radius, leaving them open for attack.

We got along good with most of the members of the Gotcha Force--except for Nekobe, who tried to flirt with Liv, only to be scorned, also telling it in his face that she was taken. That tore it for Nekobe. He challenged me to a one-on-one Gotcha Borg battle; My G Custom VS Vlad. With Vlad's huge ego (and overconfidence) in mind, I came up with a strategy to use them against him in battle. But, I must not forget that Nekobe likes to play dirty, so I gotta get ready for anything he might pull--perhaps something like getting Kitsune to help him. So, we went out the back of the clubhouse to an improvised battle arena. We both called our partner Borgs from our Gotcha Boxes, as Dennis, Liv, and the other GF Commanders gather around to watch the battle go underway. I asked G Custom, "You ready to take this nutjob down?", to which the Machine Borg replied, "Yes. Give me your orders, GF Commander.", as he floats down to the arena, facing the purple-armored Knight Borg.

I know it's been a while since I posted anything in this topic, but I've found a practical solution to the writer's block for this story that I never said anything about; using MS Word to write the Chapters.
