(They take their seats)
Mike:
Well, A_E sure was helpful, huh?
Crow: Yeah! Couldn't even tell us.
Bob: See if I ever call him again!
Under Viral Rule
Crow: I still say Meggy takes over.
v. 4.1.2
Servo:
Hmm... I had something, but I lost it.
Bob: That's okay. I do that all the time.
Crow: Yeah, I do that, but I pretend not to.
Mike:
Crow!
Crow: What?
Mike: Don't pretend! Pretending is for humans!
Bob: And sprites.
Mike: Yes, and sprites.
Crow: But that robot in "Bicentennial Man" pretended.
Mike: But! I! ARG!
This is where the heavy revising took place.
Servo: I hope that's a good thing.
Now there are no more plot holes.
Crow: Sure.
Because there were a lot.
Mike: Next time on MRT4K, we'll porbably be doing the unrevised edition of the Season 4 fics.
It was like Swiss cheese
All:
Huh?
Bob: Swiss cheese?
Crow: What kind of metaphor is that?
with all the holes!
Mike:
Oh.
Crow: I still don't get it.
(Sorry for the bad joke)
Crow: Oh, now I get it. *groan*
Anyway, here is Under Viral Rule revised.
Mike:
Crow, the story is NOT over yet.
Crow: I know. The Synopsis (otherwise known as the thing that
spoils half the fic) is next.
Mike: Nice one.
Synopsis: All the sprites are gone,
Bob:
Like me.
Servo: Even Frisket?
all the viral binomes have come back to life,
Crow: (Dr. Frankenstien) They're alive, THEY'RE ALIVE!
but a scientist binome named
Servo: Dr. Van Guttenheimer.
Professor Albert Einome
Crow:
Hey, wait a second!
Bob: What?
Crow: Albert Einome? Or A_E for short!
Servo: Shoot. It's a self insertion.
Bob: Well, A_E is just the character's made up name.
(A piece of paper appears)
Mike: Hey wait. (He reads it) From the User- I got the alias
A_Einome from this story I wrote, not vice versa. Signed, the
User. (throws it away) Well, that's okay then.
gets some invention and tries to save Taskbar Towers.
Crow: ...but fails, and we see what most fic writers would call "Hostile Takeover".
He does,
All: WHAT?
then gets some power
Crow:
User power.
Mike: No, scientific power! He probably made some chemical that
melts through virals but no one else.
that enables him to change a binomes processor to viral or back.
Servo: Wait, why would he want to change the processor to viral?
He takes advantage of this,
Servo: ...and makes the rest of Mainframe viral.
and goes to the Principle Office,
Crow: So all the viral binomes are in the Principle Office?
but could there be too many of the virals?
All: Yes.
Also a tear opens above the P.O.
Bob: And Meggy comes out.
and something falls...
Bob:
Is it Megabyte?
Servo: Yes.
The assistant has
Crow: Infected everyone.
told everyone about the sprites being gone,
Bob: You don't have to push it!
but not about the viral binomes.
Servo: That's stupid.
Everyone is panicking, except for a Zero who's
Crow: ...infected.
happy Megabyte's gone,
(Everone
starts laughing)
Servo: Like anyone cares?
but that doesn't help.
All: Duh.
What also doesn't help is the viral binome who steps through the door.
Crow: He infectes everyone.
Everyone gasps at how he could still be alive.
Mike: Tinhead was right, this is getting bad.
"Well, I'm not!" he says,
Crow: Not
alive?
Servo: Not viral?
Mike: Not there?
Bob: Not what?
touching both his viral icon and Megabyte's signature icon.
Crow: ...which let out beams of light that infect everyone.
He goes over a little transformation, and he turns into a
Bob: Class 9 virus.
50's type binome.
All: Huh?
Mike: How does that work?
Everyone gasps, except for a not-so-sure One.
Servo: Go you little One!
He gets out a magnifier and looks carefully.
Mike: At
what?
Crow: A-
Mike: No.
Bob: Wouldn't he have to permission to look at another binomes
really carefully? I mean, wouldn't the viral-that-transformed
binome slap himn or hit him or stop him?
He finds the two viral icons on the arm of the binome.
Crow: How'd
they get there?
Mike: Tattoos.
"So what's this?" he asks.
Servo: (Transformed binome) Um... a strange birthmark?
"Uh..."
Suddenly the Professor jumps up and yells,
Crow:
(Professor) Vinne Vinne Vichi!
Servo: (Professor) Boo-yah!
Mike: (Professor) Fire in the hole!
Bob: (Professor) WASSSSSSUP?
"I am a scientist!"
All: Oh.
Bob: That's boring.
He grabs his gun and zaps the two viral icons and
Crow: ...ends up infecting everyone.
converts the PIDs. "Zer! Completely non viral!"
Crow: That
stinks!
Servo: I wanna see some viral action! Infection!
he says, content. A Vid Window opens to show the cloaked figure.
Servo: Yay!
Mike: Go get him, Cloaky!
"Sorry, Professor. You're going to have to get my entire legion!"
All: Yippee!
the figure says, opening another window showing his troops.
Crow: ...which go on for miles and miles.
"Hahahahaha!" The windows went away.
All: Yay!
The Professor thought, and got an idea.
All: Boo.
"Vait! I have ze greatest idea!
Crow: (Professor) I vill get vid of vy ztupid accent!
With the viral information in my gun thing,
Mike: Gun thing?
Bob: How about just gun?
I can make regular binomes' processor change to viral,
Servo: (Professor) So now I'll infect you all!
or back!" Everyone gasped at this.
Mike: (Everyone) AAAAA! We'll be infected!
They cheered,
Mike: (Everyone) Yippee! We'll be infected!
until the door was swung open by a viral binome, knocking the Professor out of the way.
Servo: Now go step on him and throw him out the window.
"What's going on in here?" the binome said.
Bob: (Binome) We'll be infected!
"The Cloaked Figure said...there you are!"
Mike: Why would the Cloaked Figure say "There you are!"?
he said, seeing the Professor.
Crow: The Professor was infected.
The Professor readied his gun and fired at the binome.
Servo: ...making the viral binome more viral
Megabytes's icon slowly disappeared,
All: Boo!
and the regular icon did a 180º
Crow: And failed the 360, which broke his skateboard.
and the colors changed from black and green to black and white. "Wow! I feel great!"
Servo: (Binome) I have a color-changing icon!
the binome said.
"Fellow Binomes, we must take action!
Crow: Um, that sounded strange.
We must hurry to the P.O.! Come!" the Prof. said.
Servo: Why go there?
He got on his zipboard and zipped to the P.O. Once there he edited the guns to
Crow: Infect.
fire his icon-changing ray. He assigned positions,
Mike: (Professor) YOU! Second base. You can be a relief. Here, how about you be shortstop?
and started up systems.
Bob: Mainframe is just now starting up?
"Professor! The army is still stationed in G-Prime, but they could make any move!"
Servo:
(Cloaked Figure) E4!
Mike: (Professor) Battleship sunk!
the binome in charge of looking over the sectors said.
Bob: That's
a boring job.
Crow: I'd take it!
"Is everyone at their stations?
Crow: No.
I hope so!
Mike: He's not even going to check?
Get ready!" the Prof. said.
Crow:
Carrier sunk. Cloaked figure wins.
Servo: (Professor) 2 out of 3?
A Vid Window opened over G-Prime, showing the cloaked figure.
Mike: Go you!
"Begin the Principle Office attack!" he said. The troops followed orders and began surrounding the P.O.
Bob: Yes!
Inside the P.O., the binomes were worried. "Professor! They're moving in! Hurry!" the second-in-command binome said.
Crow: (Professor) Hold on, I want to see how the Yankees did. Now where'd the paper go?
"Veady ze guns!" the Prof. said. The guns went up and looked for a target.
Servo: They found the Professor's accent, and shot it.
Easier done than said. "Fire!"
Mike: Where is it? Why are there no smoke detectors going off? RUN!
The guns started firing at the binomes, hitting a few at a time. The other binomes around them paid no attention to the zapped binomes. They just continued on.
Crow: They're not very nice. Don't help a fallen comrade.
"Sir, they aren't retreating! Put up the shield?" the second-in-command binome said.
All: Duh!
"Yes!" the Prof. said. The shields went up, and just then did the viral binomes start firing.
Servo: Okay, the binomes are idiots. When the shield is down the the P.O. is vunerable, they don't shoot. But when the shield is up and the P.O. is protected, they fire.
"Sir! They're closing in fast! They'll just walk through the shield, because it's losing power fast!"
Servo: Oh.
"Hmmm... vait! I must go to ze Read-Only Room!" the Prof. said. He hurried there and said the magic words, Yadda Yadda Yadda, and accessed the Viral Erasial Command.
Crow: There
is one?
Bob: Nah. Than Meggy would be gone by Season 1.
"It's only a matter of micros! Hurry!" the binomes were saying.
Crow: No! Don't!
Outside, the binomes were on the bridges, but still being zapped.
Servo: They're still stupid.
Back inside, the Prof. was carrying some boxes, telling binomes to put the things inside around the P.O. But other things were happening, like the binomes getting into the P.O.,
All: Yay!
and a tear right above the P.O.
All: Yay!
Something fell out of the tear, and headed for the P.O.
Crow: Enter Megabyte!
The tear disappeared. The binomes decided to let the thing in,
Mike: And then Megabyte infected them.
and when they caught it,
Bob: How can you catch Megabyte?
they found it was...
All: Megabyte!
Glitch!
All: Glitch?
Somehow Bob had managed to get Glitch back to Mainframe!
Bob: How did that happen? That must have hurt.
Glitch beeped. On it's small screen it showed a picture of Bob looking like his old self from before the Web, except for the hair.
Bob: How did
I un-meld?
Crow: Oh well. Unresolved plot-hole.
"Hello. If you are hearing this, Glitch has gotten to you safely.
Servo: Obviously.
I don't know where we are,
Mike: The Supercomputer.
or how we got here,
Bob: Hack and Slash were idiots.
but someone-possibly Daemon-has made Glitch un-meld with me.
All: Oh!
Bob: Daemon is powerful!
I was instructed to decompile Glitch,
Bob: Why would I do that?
but I wouldn't do that to a friend, so I sent it to you.
Servo:
Awwww, how sweet!
Bob: Don't describe me with "puppy talk".
I'm sure Glitch will be a lot of help. Goodbye." Bob disappeared.
(Bob
attempts to follow orders and hides under his seat)
Mike: Bob, get up.
Bob: Sorry. Just trying to be funny.
Crow: It was a futile attempt.
"So, what now?" a binome asked.
Crow: Dumbest Question Ever Award goes to.... you!
The Prof. was putting those things around,
Mike: What things?
and finished quickly.
Mike: With what?
He returned to the War Room.
Crow: Okay...
"Sir! They've all been placed." a Zero said.
Servo: What's all been placed?
"Okay...I'm going to get rid of about all my power in order to
Crow: ...infect everyohne.
activate all the eraser commands..."
All: WHAT commands?
the Prof. said, but was interrupted.
Bob: Thank the User.
"Um, Professor? Use this." a One said, waving Glitch.
Bob: That's a good idea.
"Oh! Thank you!" The Prof. said. "Glitch, um...
Servo:
Infect!
Crow: Infer!
Servo: What?
Icon Change!" Glitch changed the Prof. Icon into a
Mike: Viral one.
molecule symbol, making him more powerful.
Servo: Awesome!
He felt a surge of energy go through him.
Crow: The POWER!
"Zer! Now for ze binomes!" He went to the panel.
Mike: WHAT panel?!
"Glitch! Activate Erasers!" With the help of Glitch, not as
Crow: ...many binomes were missed in the infection.
much energy was taken from the Prof.
Servo: What is he doing?
Around the P.O. the little things
Bob: Not being very detailed, I see.
-oval shaped objects with a green square in the middle and 4 antennae sticking out of it-
Bob: Or not.
changed their square from green to red, and out from the antennae came the rays of the non-viral gun. They shot every viral binome in the area.
Mike: Whoa.
Servo: I gotta get me one of those to use on Crow.
Crow: I'm not viral!
Servo: Naw, I'd tweak it to make it delete.
Mike: I'd make it into a transport to get out of this place.
"Zer! The virals are becoming un-viral, for good!" the Prof. said.
All: Boo!
Bob: Actually, I don't think our infection wishes will come true.
Servo: You know, I think you're right.
All: Yay!
Old Man Pearson,
Mike: Why include him?
in his Data Dump, just grunted and said,
Crow: (Pearson) GRUNT!
"Glad that's over!"
Bob: Glad
what's over? The fic?
Servo: Judging by the scroll bar, yes.
The Cloaked Figure growled at the Professor's work.
Crow: (Cloaked Figure) GROWL!
Meanwhile, one last viral binome was hanging around G-Prime.
Mike:
(sarcastic monotone) Oh no, he'll infect them all.
Servo: (ditto) AAAA.
"I knew I shoulda stayed behind! Ha-ha!" He was soon zapped. But an eye watched that happen. A green eye with a red pupil...
Mike: Maybe
we're wrong.
Servo: Who zapped him?
The Professor decided to go to his lab to celebrate. He went back down to Level 31. When he walked in,
Crow: A parade was held!
a 5 almost ran in to him,
Crow: Oh that's nice! (Professor) Hello! I saved the system and WHOA you should watch where you're going! You idiot!
and an 8 was mopping a spot on the floor.
Bob: Why tell us that?
"You okay, Professor?" The waiter said.
Crow: Haven't you heard?
"Yes. Even better, look at my icon!"
Servo: He can't see over the bar.
"Wow! That's great!"
Mike: What's great?
The Professor went into his lab, just a Game was loading.
Crow: Yay! The Professor is deleted!
"Great! Now I can test my newest creation!"
Bob: Please fail please fail please fail...
the Professor said. He got it out, and the Game Cube descended on him.
Servo: Say buh-bye, Nomie!
Didn't that battle scene remind you of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace?
Mike: Um, no.
Next up:
Crow: There's more?
Hmm...
Crow: I guess he hasn't written it yet.
no name yet,
Mike: No, he's currently writing it.
still dealing with the Cloaked Figure.
All: Yay!
Crow: Well, that's it.
Mike: Let's hitch up and go!
Crow: That wasn't that bad.
Servo: Although we were cheering for Megabyte to come and infect everyone.
Mike: Think that's bad?
Servo: Nah.
Bob: Well, I'm going to go get some shrimp.
(Bob leaves)
Mike: So, how bad do you think the next part is?
Servo: Well, if he's still writing it... pretty bad.
(Bob comes back in)
Bob: Okay, I ordered some shrimp. It should be here soon.
Crow: Yep.
(Hexfield pops on for no obvious reason)
Mike: Hello Mega- hey where is he?
Bob: Megabyte?
(Megabyte comes into view)
Megabyte: Sorry, Ms. Forrester was giving me some problems.
(offscreen) Pearl: Go away Bobo! I don't need any soup! GO! NOW!
Megabyte: Anyway, I noticed you happened to want me in the story and infect everyone.
Crow: Well, we thought it would add some action.
Megabyte: Oh really? I guess my plan is working. You shall all be under my control any second now.
Crow: Well, at least if you add a y to my name you don't get Megaybyte!
Mike: Ooh! Good one Crow!
Bob: Yeah!
Megabyte: Um... well... I'm leaving.
(offscreen) Pearl: Chicken!
Megabyte: CHICKEN? Why you- (Hexfield goes off)
(doorbell sound is heard)
Mike: Hey Gypsy, can you get that?
(offscreen) Gypsy: Certainly! Oh hello. Shrimp? Okay, I'll sign. Okay, I only have a 10. Have change? Good! Okay then! Goodbye! (comes on screen) Here's the shrimp you ordered.
Bob: All right!
Mike: Wait- guys?
Servo: Yes, Mike?
Mike: I just realized that was our chance for escape!
Crow: Nah. Meggy probably had some trap set up.
Bob: Mmm hmm...
Servo: Maybe the shrimp is really POISONED!
(Bob makes a face and runs off)
Servo: Or not. (snickers)
(Bob comes back)
Bob: Ohhhh.... my stomach....
(Sirens go off and lights flash)
Mike: We've got movie siiiiiiign!
Bob: I need some Antacid...
