The WWF Visits Mainframe

CHAPTER FIVE
MAINFRAME
"McMahonFrame?!?!?!" Dot said, then she sighed and took something off her belt, "Well.. I'm afraid you can't do that..."
Mr. McMahon looked at her, incensed, "What do you mean I can't do that??!!"
"You see..." Dot began. She pressed a button on the object in her hand, and opened up a computerized notebook, "I own most of the businesses in Mainframe... and I'm NOT selling!!" she handed the notebook to Vince, "The password is Guardian.. if you want to take a look.."
Vince did so.. and stared at her with surprise, "But... if you have so much power, why... why couldn't you fight him?" McMahon asked as he looked at Megabyte.
"Well.. I may have the money, but I don't have the army!" Dot explained. "And Megabyte's forces were.. well.. more powerful then my own. I couldn't stop him..." then she smiled, "but... if your plan is to make this a corporate world, then I can stop YOU! Oh.. and thank you for taking care of Megabyte for us. It was a great help..." she nodded to some of the rebels behind her. They quickly took custody of Megabyte.
Megabyte's army were at a loss. The rebels had SCARIER users!! The army didn't dare fight back. In fact, joining the rebels was looking like a pretty good idea right now.
"But... I have THIS ARMY!!" McMahon said.
"Oh... really??" Dot asked, raising an eyebrow skeptically. She looked at the army captain, "Would you take orders from someone other then Megabyte??" she asked him.
The Captain was startled she was talking to him... but answered anyway, "No.. never!"
"What?!! How DARE you refuse to listen to me!!" Vince shouted.
The captain looked at him, "You have no power over us. Megabyte did. Now... we're FREE!" he looked at his army, and gave them a thumbs up. They cheered loudly and quickly dispersed, reveling in their freedom.
"Noooo!!" Vince cried, then fell to his knees, "My corporate dreams... crushed..."
Dot felt sorry for him, "Oh... don't take it too hard. I hear there's some great real estate in G-Prime now..." Dot offered.
Vince looked up, hopeful, "Really?? You don't own it?!"
"No no.. I only own MOST of Mainframe... not ALL of it..."
Vince looked happy for a moment, "Can I lay claim to G-Prime then??"
"Sure.. go ahead.." Dot smiled.
"NO! G-Prime is MY sector!!" Megabyte shouted.
Dot looked at him, "YOU have no place to talk!! You're officially OUR prisoner," then she looked back at Vince. "Mainframe needs a little fixing up right now... but if you help us, I'll give you G-Prime,"
Vince nodded happily, "Yes... yes.. that sounds like a good idea!!" he said, and held out his hand.
Dot looked at his outstretched hand. She wouldn't trust him as far as she could throw him... but she knew that even if he tried to double-cross her, it wouldn't work. He didn't have the power to take over what she rightfully owned.
Reluctantly, she shook his hand... and was soon reminded of something similar that had happened with a certain software pirate. "Well.. now that the deal is done, shall we set about our task??" she asked.
"Wait just a *BSnP* minute here..!" Austin started, "We still wanna go back to our world!!" He started, indicating himself and his fellow wrestlers, "We have matches to work!" Then he looked at Vince, "and don't you have a company to run?!"
"Well.. actually... my wife runs it..." Vince admitted.
Suddenly, another vid window popped open. Everyone looked at it, eyes wide. Another user was staring at them through the vid window... and he was quickly joined by three men wearing t-shirts that read 'nWo'.

USER WORLD
Backstage - a Wrestling show
Eric Bishoff gasped when he saw the characters on television looking right at him... and almost fainted when he noticed who was with them. Four wrestlers and... "VINCE MCMAHON?!!!?" His arch rival, the owner of the WWF, was starring in ReBoot now??!!
Eric turned to his faithful nWo friends... but they offered him no answers. He then looked back to the TV, and stared dumbly.
"Hey... that's my old boss!" the bald wrestler on the show commented. Eric recognized him immediately, and shivered. "Eric... !!!!!" the bald wrestler yelled, "Ya yellow bellied coward!! YOU were the *BSnP* who was too scared to fire me face to face!!! I got a *BSnP* call on my *BSnP* answering machine instead!! You said you couldn't make a star out of a bald guy in black tights!! So.. where the *BSnP* did GOLDBERG come from then?!!"
"STEVE?!?" Eric stuttered, "Hey.. Steve!! Man.. I haven't seen you in so long.." he began nervously.
"I'm gonna kick your Ascii, little man!!" and with that, Austin climbed through the television set to come face to face with his ex-boss.
The Undertaker, Edge, and Al Snow followed... making sure there wasn't any outside interference from Eric's loyal workers.
Vince smiled and, for the first time in his life, found himself cheering for Stone Cold Steve Austin.

MAINFRAME
The Mainframers looked at the fight in the vid window, confused... yet strangely interested. Austin was beating on the Eric user. Undertaker, Edge, and Al were beating on the users in the nWo t-shirts.
"Oooooohh... and there's a left.. and a right.. oooh SIDEWALK SLAM!! This is the greatest match in the history of our SPORT!!" A loud, annoying voice broke through the stunned silence. Everyone looked at the source of the voice. It was none other then Mainframe's own -- Mike the TV. He paid no attention to their stares, and watched the fight in the vid window, enthralled, "Now THIS is entertainment!!!" he stated.
No one could disagree.

USER WORLD
The 23 year old girl woke with a start, "What the..." she gasped. Her eyes soon adjusted to the darkness of her room. She sat up slowly and shook her head, "That was a damn weird dream!!" she muttered. The girl looked at the clock. It read 4:30am. "Never again.." she said to herself, "I'll never again watch Wrestling AND ReBoot before I snooze!!" She then lay back on her bed, and fell asleep again.
