'''Neopet Version 2''' was a puzzle plot run in November 2001, where four [[Neopets]] were trapped in a [[Virtupets Space Station|Virtupets]]' elevator by a digital pet, Neopet Version 2, an abandoned project created by [[Dr. Sloth]] to replace Neopets when he conquered [[Neopia]].
Neopet Version 2 (or neopet v2, for short) was a computer program created by [[Dr. Frank Sloth]] that was supposed to be a replacement for [[neopets]]. When Sloth was defeted by the space faerie, however, the project was shelved.


The plot involved the user searching for clues to find the four programmers who worked on the programme in order to obtain the deactivation codes needed to shut down Neopet Version 2. There were ten codes and each programmer had two. The final two codes were hidden inside the malicious programme itself, and could only be extracted by using several key questions, found in the plot.

Two days later Neopet v2 watched four neopets, Billy, Sarah, Karai, and Helena, through a security camera, and overheard them talking about how they had no friends. Neopet Version 2 decided that it would be their friend.


On the 5th November, a forgotten computer programme deep inside the Space Station flickered to life, asking after a 'Doctor' and requesting its 'first lesson'.
As the four neopets entered Virtulift 4, the lift went pass their level and jammed. Neopet v2  appeared on a monitor in the lift and told the neopets that they were its friends now.


That evening, Billy and his sister Sarah, [[Usul]]s who moved around constantly due to their parents careers, were appearing on [[Better Than You]], the most fantabulous game show in Neopia. Although they never managed to make friends, moving about as they did, they did become incredibly good at video games, and a score of 1,260 in [[Meerca Chase]] won them the competition. Their prize: a week-long holiday on the Virtupets Space Station.
The next day neopet v2 asked the kids if they were "Ready for another game", and the game Kau Korral came up on the monitor Neopet v2 was on, and all the kids complained.


At the Station, Billy and Sarah met Karai and Helena, a green [[Kyrii]] and a pink [[Gelert]]. On the second day of their trip, which they were enjoying greatly, the four friends were in [[Grundos Cafe]], talking about their lives at home. Sarah commented on how she had no friends at school, and the others agreed they, too, would like more friends.
The following night V2 told Billy to 'Solve this equation' and neopet v2 typed out a very long stream of numbers and symbols. Billy guessed and said 2, and the computer announced that he was wrong, and zapped him with a bolt of green electricity.


Watching through a security camera, the sentient computer programme, Neopet Version 2, listened to their conversation. Neopet Version 2 had no friends. The programme wondered if these four pets would be its friend.
On the 9th day of Storing, 8:45 pm, Neopet Version 2 was deactivated, and the kids escaped.


Billy and Sarah, with their two new friends, entered Virtulift 4, and pressed the key for floor 3. The elevator shot past their floor, plunging down through levels in the Station, then jamming, the screen reading the current floor number only convey gibberish. Billy hit the emergency key, but the lift remained stuck, despite the alarm bells ring through Virtupets. A monitor in the lift light up with the Neopets Version 2 programme. It declared its hostages its friends, and told them they would be in the lift forever. Neopets Version 2 wanted to play.
==Trivia==


On Neopia, a letter was sent to Dr. Sloth, the creator of the Space Station. Although he was Neopia's enemy, he was the only one who could help. He replied, although was far from helpful. He explained that the programme was an abandoned project of his, designed to replace Neopets, and that ten codes were needed to deactivate it. Dr. Sloth, although saying he could shut the programme down, refused to. He did, however, explain how the deactivation would work: the ten codes needed to be inputted in the correct order into a deactivation console, hidden on the Station. The four programmers who worked on NPv2 knew two codes each, and the final two were hidden inside the programme itself. Sloth went on to mention that interrogating the first programmer would be useless - his mouth would be stuffed with "that vile purple vegetable he craves so much".
* Neopet v2 was featured on the 59th Lenny Conundrum, with the message "Oops it seems that Neopet V2 has his binary in a twist. Can you figure out what he is trying to say?" He was trying to say chokato. The prize was a neopet v2 coffee mug.  


With the air in the lift running out, and Neopet Version 2 taking a violent attitude to its captives when they failed to solve its puzzles, almost the whole of Neopia were rushing to track down the programmers. Finally, with only 3 1/4 hours left before air ran out, the programme shut down, the Virtulift started to move, and air began ventilating once again.
* During the Neopet v2 plot, when you talk to [[Zyrolon]] he will say "I can't blam you, that program has shoddy coding, well not the parts that I did, but its full of infanite loops, and I won't even mention the number of direct libary links. It's a mess."


The four children were given a hero's welcome and treated to as much food as they could eat, and tickets to come to the Station again any time. Billy and Sarah, however, were more interested about what was going on in Neopia: after their adventure, they would be the most popular pets around.
