(OOC: Right.)

(OOC: I am still genuinely sorry, but I actually have an idea to fix this. I'll just send a personal message to try and discuss it with you.)

(OOC: Actually Dave and Gery were claimed by me a long time ago believe it or not. I forgot what page I introduced them though. So uh, sorry man. Honest mistake on both our ends.)

(OOC: Got it.)
???
Seems like two familiar faces are at the Wario estate's backyard... or at least, near it in a far enough distance that they don't notice the battle and whatnot.
Dave Bomber: Ok, Gary. Here's the plan, we if we can't go through the front yard, the sides of the house, or even the roof and underground, we might as well take one last gambit with the backyard.
Gary Bomber: Dave, listen to me, we can't, and I can't stress it enough, we can't get through the house's defense system. Hell, we'd have an easier time with Scrooge McDuck's vault than this!
Dave Bomber: Ah calm down ya whinner. I never, not in a hundred years or so, give up. Now watch and learn...
He then tries to sneak into the backyard if there is one...

(OOC: Ok, chase, I actually have a question on one of your characters, Buggler. Is he the one from Super Bomberman R, or another bomber game? Just curious.)

Regal: Yeah, that might work.
Engeles - Ramza's home
Ramza appears to be finishing up studying for his education.
Well, seems like I finished my studies. Now either to get some of that herbal tea Alma promised, spend quality time with my siblings, and today, no matter what happens, will go, all, rig-
Then, a small book-like device starts ringing...
...*sigh*... What could it be now?
He then opens up the small device, revealing itself to be a PET, with someone that looks eerily similar to another netnavi in blue, black, and yellow, but with more of an appearance of a knight in armor.
???.EXE: I apologize for the sudden interruption dear friend, but you currently have some news-related mail.
I'll just read it late-
???.EXE: You will read it now, or so help me-
???: Ramza! Your red-herb tea's getting cold!
???.EXE: ...Then again... that tea is required for your mental health.
Ramza then closes his PET, puts it in his pocket, and goes downstairs.

(OOC: I'm not liking the sound of that so far)

Regal: Fair point. Besides, from what I know, the convention I chose should only be coming within a month or two, so maybe the modelers have some time to properly make things look well.
??? - years ago, 3 months after battle network 4
Seems like the heel navi is hiding below a false floor panel to hide from some sort of mob, panicking...
??? - Present day
Seems like said navi is starting to breathe heavily at the sight of area he hid in all those years ago...

Regal: Alright, but a question I have is, which convention to go at... maybe we could sell some first editions in case if anyone tries to take the test boards outside the park as a measure as well?
??? - years ago, three days prior to the first C-Slider attempt...
???: This'll make us millions!
???: Even though people might hate it?
???: Ah shut it! It's gonna work! Trust me! Navis and people'll eat it up like hot cakes!
??? - Present day
Seems like the location has been abandoned for quite awhile, probably due to how poorly handled the first C-Slider was... is that a heel navi I see?
...Has it been that long since he tried to scam people?
He then walks around... looking at his surroundings, like unhappy memories...

Regal: Well I'll be. But the question I have for this is, why? Not, why you thought this was a good idea, no no, in fact, this, is more of a great idea if you will. No, the "why" I asked is, why did the potential of the original "squander" as you put it?
Lan's home
Seems like Mega still isn't moving from his PET, but Lan is currently writing an email to someone.
Lan: *sigh* It's been two years since my last email from him... what happened during that time to make him stop?
He then continues typing until suddenly, he receives an email from the one he was trying to reach out to.
Lan: What the...? Is that really him?
He then right-clicks on the notification, opening the email to a new tab on his computer.

Lan then opened the gift inside Ramza's email, revealing itself as a TailWind customization program!
TailWind - A customization program that increases the buster speed beyond the max stat of 10, by 6.

@MegaMan1027 : (OOC(short for Out Of Character): Did you post in the wrong thread? If so, honest mistake.)

Eien Area 2
All seemed quiet, untill...
???: WHAT!?
Whaddya mean delivery boy!? I came here for the guard job! Not some lesser known part of this companies business operation!
Sprite: W-well...
I swear if this things gonna be a David V Goliath situation I will not have it!
Sprite: Well here's the thing Mister... "Maestro" was it? It seems you have quite the track record with criminal organizations. Most infamously, The Atma Group to try and get yourself taller as a result.
Ah crap... should've seen it comin...
Sprite: Exactly. Especially since we need some new ones due to an incident involving a dragon cybeast in Yoka Area 3.
Of course there was...

Snowdin Inn
Thief: What the hell?
They then go towards Cool Lancer, in a state of confusion, not noticing the dizzy Noyno below.
Noyno: My bleedin' head...

Snowdin inn
The man with blue hair decides to enter the inn, and try and find a bed. Since nobody's there, ergo, he gets to sleep for free.
???: Man... has it really been that long since... Garland? In general? Damn that's kind of... screwed up not gonna lie... ah who cares? I'll just sleep it off!
He then goes up stairs, opens a door, and enters a single bed, dreaming... dreaming of what exactly? Well... a grim vision of the future lies...
???'s dream
???: W...what the hell!?
He then walks around, afraid of what might happen in this... nightmare...
???: No... no no no... this can't be...
He see's a tired out Will Smith alone, trying to approach him, until...
???: Don't move, whelp
Future Will then gets sliced in half! By a familiar face he didn't want to see ever again...
???: No... it... it can't be! He's supposed to be dead!
???: Am I now, Thief?
Am I?
He then tried to cut Thief into ribbons with his sabre! But Thief wakes up from this nightmare vision... just in time...
Thief: WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
His scream could be heard from all the underground!
What was... that?
