Harry Potter Battle Network

Disclaimer & Author's Note: I do not own Harry Potter or Mega Man, the worlds of Harry Potter or Mega Man, or any and all official characters from the Harry Potter and Mega Man series itself. J.K Rowling, along with other companies and whatnot that help make the Harry Potter series into movie adaptations, have ownership of this series. Whereas Capcom for the creation of the popular video game franchise, own the popular video game series. All I own is this idea of a plot, the alternative universe adapting the Battle Network series into the HP world, and my Original Characters. This comes from the crossover oneshot eventually seen in The Book of Hogwarts Stories, but now I wish to expand on this. It's going to be a bit hard implementing some of the EXE lands into real world aspects but... I think I figured out how to do so.

Prologue

The Earth after the Second World War changed drastically. By now, many of you should know the events after World War II, and how history turned out afterward so I won't ramble on about it. However, what I WILL ramble on about is how this story goes. Technology began to have a high increase after the Second World War and the following Cold Wars. With the new technology being created, economies dead or broken, or adapting, around the world countries and governments were affected by the increase in a positive and negative way. By the 1970's Earth began adapting to the technological break-out that revolved around the Cyber World, and everyday lives slowly began to revolve around the use of the network-technology and the early-days of the Net Navigators. However, by the 1980's another war began and it wasn't made public; the only ones who did know were those who lived in the Wizarding World. They feared his name so great, that they felt his name would curse you if you even utter it. Many call him You Know Who or He Who Shall Not Be Named. His feared name was Voldemort. One aged wizard knew his human name: Tom Marvolo Riddle.

October 31, 199X (1994), the Dark Lord Voldemort perished, leaving behind a lone survivor. And as he was left on the doorstep of a home in Surrey, England, wizards and witches all around Europe drink to the new savior: Harry Potter, the Boy-Who-Lived. However... in a world where life revolved around technology and the internet, the Wizarding World was ignorant to the advancing ways of the Muggle World. A boy with a loosely-cursed scar on his temple would remain in the cold night with nothing more than a simple wicker baby basket, and wrapped in a red and gold-threaded blanket. The blanket did nothing to warm the appearingly-abandoned toddler. A block away from Number 4 Pivot Drive, there was a police car driving down. He had been called out to a park in Surrey where a gang of teens were busted distributing illicit drugs and illegal substances. One of the teens was handcuffed to a metal bar bolted into the wall that separated the officer from the criminal. And of course, the teenager's PET was confiscated and the NetNavi program installed on it on lockdown.

"David," the officer heard his name spoken by a male voice. He gazed to the small monitor mounted on the dash board, where his Navi was currently residing, keeping watch over the captured criminal Navi, "you received an e-mail earlier while you were arresting the Black Crow gang members. It came from your wife."

"Hm?"

"Rebecca says to not come home until you do a bit of grocery shopping. Milk, eggs, bread, and some deli meats."

"Ah. Okay. I'll just stop by at the local mart after I get back to the station and process the kid behind me."

The kid in question kicked the back of the wall separator.

As Officer David drove down the next block, he was gazing at the identical houses much of the homes resembled, before he stopped immediately. The kid smacked his head against the Plexiglas window, although neither the human officer nor his Police Navi cared if the kid injured himself.

"David? What's wrong?"

"Keep the car running," he said and he got out, taking out his flashlight. He turns it on and points the beam of light at the basket his eye caught under the outdoor light. He quickly rushed up, and was shocked to see the basket had a toddler inside.

An hour later, St. Peter's Hospital was alerted to the case of a toddler found seemingly abandoned on the doorstep of a house in Surrey, and by the time he came in, he was still in the first stage of hypothermia despite the officer cranking the heat in the vehicle to give the child more warmth. However, he eventually was stabilized, even after a brush with death. But what the muggles didn't know was that the loose soul fragment of Voldemort unknowingly attached to his scar was destroyed when Death's hand brushed Harry's very soul.

"And you found the child on a doorstep with this note on it?"

"Yes, sir."

The captain of the London Police gazed once again at the note that was discovered in the basket under the resting toddler.

Petunia Dursley, please take care of Lily's son. His name is Harry James Potter. I know that you will find it in your heart to care for him as if he was your own child.

Dumbledore

There was an immediately search for the name Harry James Potter, however no such child existed in the database. Neither did the name "Dumbledore" showed up on any records, although Petunia's name was found.

"We'll be sending two officers to interview this Mrs. Dursley in the morning, but for now, how is the boy?"

"Resting now after the doctors managed to save him from near-death. Although, since this Potter family doesn't exist, he's mostly going to be placed in an orphanage."

David sighed.

"If I ever find this Dumbledore person, he's going to jail for child endangerment."

In Hogwarts, the old wizard gave off a sneeze. Then calls a House Elf to deliver a cup of hot cocoa for believing he's coming down with a minor cold. Nothing like chocolate to warm the soul, hm...?

199X (1999) were when things would change for Harry Potter's life. First of all, before he was taken to a nice orphanage in Kensington, the police officers that went to interview Petunia had trouble when she began freaking out when the name Harry Potter was brought up. Of course, the officers immediately agreed that this woman apparently hated her sister who disappeared and would not take care of her sister's son (whom they learned was a woman named Lily Potter, who also did not exist on the European Records Database). Her husband however was arrested that same day when a call was put in on the BOLO for his charges of company embezzlement and fraud. The case went cold when no trace of this Potter Family was found, and no relatives related to the Potters came forth. But his days would begin to become better when a family who had a daughter met the child, and they decided to adopt him when it became apparent Hermione and Harry had become best friends at their Preschool. And all this time, Dumbledore was none the wiser, believing that his charms on several of his trinkets in his office were suffice in monitoring Harry thanks to the charms he's placed on the Dursley household.

Just too bad Harry was never there at all. Harry before meeting Hermione he was a loner. No one knew who or where his parents were. Officially their names were listed as Potter, but they were the few Jane and John Does on the police records' cold case files. Still, Harry loved having a family. He enjoyed having Hermione as his sister, and he loved his parents very much. The young kids on their fifth birthdays each received a PET. While Hermione's PET came with a custom Navi, Daniel Granger had a tough time being able to find Harry a custom Navi he believed he would love. It was a week before Harry's birthday that Daniel had finished his end of the shopping and he went to a café located downtown in London.

"One medium, one cream, please," he says to the woman at the cashier. She made the quick order and he pays for the coffee with his PET, before grabbing his coffee, and sits down at a window booth.

"Hello, may I sit here?"

Daniel looked up to see a guy with a trimmed facial hair, and had dark blonde hair and wore rounded glasses.

"Ah, I don't mind company," Dan replied, as he took a sip of his coffee.

With a smile, the man sits down, and nibbles on his crepe.

"I'm Mikhail Cossack."

"Daniel Granger." He lifted the second PET, and groaned a bit.

"Hm... looks quite new, Daniel," Cossack says, taking note of the PET.

"Oh, yeah. I was able to buy this relatively cheap, although it currently comes with no NetNavi feature. It was for my son, Harry."

"Ah."

"Yeah... my daughter has her own NetNavi, and she's a custom model. Her name's Marino."

"You know... I know a bit about creating customizable NetNavi programs. I've followed a bit on NetNavi productions and customizations back when I worked as a scientist."

"Oh? Science Corporation?"

"Former. I retired and just went off to spend more time with my daughter Kalinka."

"Hm... sounds Russian."

"Yeah. Originally from Moscow, although I used to live in Den City near Tokyo. But after I retired from the job, I left and returned home to Russia. I'm here visiting an old friend."

"I see."

"May I see that PET?"

"Hm?"

"Just quick."

Daniel handed the PET over to Cossack, who reached into his bag and took out his laptop. He hooked the device to his laptop, and was quickly typing away on the keyboard. No less than five minutes has passed when the man smiled.

"I hope your son enjoys the Navi I installed." He hands the Pet back to the man, picks up his coffee and stuffs the crepe into his mouth. With a parting wave of his fingers, he leaves the café.

Daniel was confused however, as he quickly accesses the PET, but all he got was a loading screen that was slowly installing the Navi program. The only thing that was distinguishable on the screen was the Navi symbol. It was a gold ring, black backdrop, with a white slash mark in a ninety degree angle that overlapped a stylized red S mark.

"Hm... what kind of Navi did he install on this?"

Ever since that encounter, Harry never knew that he gained one of the few Navis that would be on par with some of the strongest Navis on the planet. The years gone by, and Harry, Hermione, Daniel, and Emma, continued to live as a nice family. It wasn't until Harry's eleventh birthday where owls would sometimes be seen flying in the skies. In Hogwarts, a stern old woman wearing a tartan headdress and rather old Victorian clothing with a black robe was busy finishing up with the letters for this year's First Year students with a large woven-bound book covered in cow leather.

"Oh... that can't be right."

She was at the P's, and when she written down Harry Potter's name, the quill would then automatically fill out the information of the address of which it would be delivered to. Instead, it did nothing. Feeling that something was wrong, she grabbed the envelope that had the letter already inside along with the list of supplies, and rushed out of her office. She made quick haste; passing by a greasy-haired man whom seemed to scowl a lot without a second glance.

She arrived at a gargoyle statue. "Thin Mints." And just like magic, the heavy stone statue jumps to one side as the wall revolves, revealing a spiral staircase. Up she went, and barges right into the office without knocking.

"Albus, we have a problem!"

Dumbledore looks up from a book he was reading.

"Minerva, my dear, what's the matter?"

She smacks the parchment envelope onto the vibrant slightly-cluttered desk.

"Hm?"

"When I got to Harry's name, the quill did not fill out his address."

"Hm. Maybe the quill malfunctioned," Dumbledore inquired, stroking his beard in a thoughtful manner.

"I very much doubt my Address Quill had jolted in magic, Albus, it worked perfectly well until I got to his name."

She fished it out, and Dumbledore takes it. Grabbing a fresh envelope from his desk, he writes the name down. Just like with Minerva, it didn't write down an address.

"Strange," Dumbledore whispered, before he shakes his head, "no matter. I'll deliver it myself, Minerva." He takes the original envelope, before he stood up and walked to the fireplace. He tossed in what appeared to be green powder, and the flames grew bigger and turned to shades of green.

He vanished shortly, leaving the Head of Gryffindor House alone with sleeping portraits, and a large fiery red bird preening itself. When Dumbledore returned, he was not his usual self. Harry was not at the home, and he had met a family that had two sons who were NOT the Dursleys. But he DID learn that the former residents left the neighborhood after the arrest of Vernon Dursley who was caught for company embezzlement and fraud of a former company called Grunnings, and the wife seemingly disappeared leaving behind her abandoned son who was a current resident at a juvenile center. He rushed to Minerva's office via Floo, and grabbed The Book.

Ignoring her startled yelp when he appeared through her fire place, The Book was used as a school list. It magically self-updates when a magical child is born within the residence of Europe, mostly England, Oxford, Scotland, Ireland... however... he paled when he finally got to the P List of 2005. There was no "Potter, Harry" on the list. He had just discovered the one thing that now would crush the hopes of the Wizarding World.

"Albus! What's wrong?"

"Harry... Harry Potter, the Boy-Who-Lived, is a Squib," he whispered horrifically.

Minerva McGonagall was ashen. "It couldn't be! Harry Potter had defeated Voldemort! He couldn't be a Squib!"

"... I... I... I am unsure of this, but the Book never lies..."

"H-How?"

Dumbledore only had one possible theory, and it was one that seemed the most plausible. Voldemort's attempt at killing Harry somehow backfired, but in the result, it could have destroyed Harry's magical core when his life was in mortal peril.

"The Wizarding World will riot... I can just feel it," the wizard whispered.

While still technically ten, Harry and Hermione during this time were with their friends at a Cyber Arcade in London. And both Harry and Hermione never knew what was going on at a magical castle in the middle of Scotland. They were too busy enjoying sibling bonding time by having a Tag Team Net-Battle against two boys.

The first Navi was a male, and is clad in a white bodysuit with blue lines that race along the front suit. The upper torso is protected by a sapphire and white armor, and the shoulders protected by triangle-shaped blue and black pauldrons. On the center of the torso armor is the Navi's emblem; a gold circle, black background with a stylized red S mark which has the marking of a white slash over at a 80 degree angle. On the back was a blue and white power pack that has a decorated green chevron border on the back. The backpack has two long battery probes that were topped with a pointed green gemstone (those battery probes were beam sabers in disguise). The helmet was designed like the fins of a cobra that is blue while the main helmet's color was white, with a four-pointed emerald gem. He had brilliant sapphire-tinted eyes, and had what appear to be short purple fang marks that ran from under his eyes. The boots were also white with red around the sole, and the lower legs are protected by a sapphire oval armor guard. The forearms were similarly designed, but with a blue bracelet, and white black-fingered gloves.

"White Lightning Battlechip in, download! Knock them down, Fortezero!" Harry encouraged.

The second Navi was a female. She had long green hair coming out from the back with a few curled locks along the front that slightly defy gravity, which accents the brilliant blue-green eyes of hers. Her bodysuit was all black, although from the thighs down they were white. The upper torso is covered by an armored pink and white-collared vest with four gold coin emblems pinned to the front; her stomach and lower back are left in the open. The lower legs were clad in sleek pink armor boots, with yellow anklets and knee guards embedded with a diamond-shaped blue gem, and white markings around the footwear. Her lower arms were also clad in a similar design that made up her boots and footwear; however an oval ring plate shields the backs of her hands, and are embedded with a blue gem fused to the yellow bracelets. Her Navi emblem was a white flower with a blue center on a dark blue triangle, against a green background inside the gold circle, and it was centered on the utility belt she wore; said belt has two dagger-shaped handled equipped to the back. Her pink helmet was more open around the front and shields around the top back of the head with an opening in the back to allow her hair free. Two short chevrons are attached to the white ear guards and protect the sides of her face, with the ear guards white with pink beetle-shaped horns jutting along the top at an 80 degree upward angle.

"Follow up with your Cherry Blossom Blizzard, Marino!" Harry's sister says, while slotting in an Air Shoes Battlechip.

Their opponents were strong indeed, with the time in the battle now reaching the six minute mark. The first Navi was a towering giant, and its motif appearance resembled a construction machine made for drilling tunnels and also crushing earth, and mowing tall grasslands. Its feet were made of tank treads, with the sides having steel rings made of a power saw blade. The torso was the body of a crane minus said crane arm, and its head was the cockpit of a bulldozer, with a boomerang-shaped visor as its "eyes", and a bulldog-shaped metal faceplate that was its mouth. A red emergency light topped its humanoid cranium with two large spikes jutting out the back of the boxy head, and from the sides. The right arm was made out of a digger trough that was shaped as a three-pronged claw, the left arm equipped with a power drill, black and yellow-striped. The Navi emblem was on its back, which was a sideways horse shoe-shaped C, green, with a yellow diamond set in the center.

"Earth Barrier!" The tough Navi bellows, smashing the ground with its digger hand. The ground broke as stone walls shot up, shielding against the bolt of white lightning that was fired from the Blue-eyes White Dragon-shaped buster gun. The swirling cherry blossoms that Marino had summoned through her energy shuriken were also easily blocked by the towering stone barriers.

Its partner was like the Generic Navi model, but it was more customized with armor. First off, the right forearm was two sizes larger, with segmented fingers the size of a gorilla's. The other arm was normal, but the top of the forearm was equipped with a shield-sized gauntlet which was attached to a launcher. On its left bicep were two black bands. The shield itself was serrated around the blue and yellow shield's rim. The boots it wore held a cylinder-shaped armor around the legs until it seems to blossom to a boxed form with a red line bisecting around the top. The battery pack it wears had extended probes jutting from the underside as well as seen extending past the shoulders, the right one protected by a boxed shoulder gauntlet. The bodysuit was gunmetal gray with light maroon stripes down the sides of the arms, legs, and curves towards the emblem on its torso. The upper torso is covered by an armored vest with a short open collar. The helmet remained the old Generic style, but the top had a V-shaped blade rim lining the sides and curves around the back, in which a hole in the back allowed what looked like a thick light gray cable with an orange sparkplug as the tip to dangle like rope. Its Navi emblem was a round red eye-like symbol that kept the armored vest closed shut, and it was also displayed on its battery pack, and on the serrated-rimmed shield. And while the face of the Navi was the standard Generic form, the eyes instead of white or pale green, were a blood red color.

It counters by jumping over DestructMan, morphing its gorilla-sized forearm into a widened blade-like weapon with a slight hooked tip.

"Take them down once and for all, PowerMan!" The operator of the Navi had inserted a Battlechip into his PET.

Marino and Fortezero evade the crushing sword attack that also rips forth a shockwave attack.

"Ring Chaser!"

He fires the serrated shield out like a buzz saw towards Marino, who nearly avoided it. However, her jump, when she was also dodging an attack from DestructMan, had struck the Navi instead, and that didn't sit well with DestructMan's operator. Especially since the shield was now stuck inside the hollowed area that made up the digger arm.

"Take advantage, Fortezero," Harry told his Navi in a whisper. The blue-eyed Navi reaches behind, and grips the probes on his back. He pulls on them, as he brings them forth, immediately deploying green energy sabers.

"Lights out!" he shouts, dashing at PowerMan.

"Spark Chaser!"

The Navi held out his shield-less hand, and green energy fires forth like a fast-moving Electric Ball. The attack was sliced in half, and the second swipe of the beam saber slices into the Navi's armored vest. He quickly swung around, and the other beam saber cuts a plus.

POWERMAN LOGGING OUT

With his logout, his shield vanished into swirls of data, freeing movement into the arm, but Marino had sprinted away after she launched a Gooey Bomb that Hermione sent her Navi at his back nearest the trends that gave him movement. The explosion was loud, it was big...

DESTRUCTMAN LOGGING OUT

And it logged him out, too, ending this Net-Battle with the Granger siblings the victor.

"You idiot! How could you make us lose?"

"Me? It was your fault!"

Harry and Hermione quietly log their Navis out, and walk away from the bickering older kids.

"Want to get some fish and chips, sis?"

"Sure," Hermione replies.

Yes... while Marino is similar to her Rockman X counterpart, the other Navi Fortezero is an Original Character and one of my fan-made Navis from the far past (back in during my high school days). For those who may wonder about my fan Navi's voice, I often always hear Fortezero's voice based off the character Inuyasha from said manga/anime series.
