Author's Note: I do not own Megaman, at all. Although I DO own this poem in particular. It is an amusing project in which I am attempting to poetically rhyme the events of Megaman Zero 1 in the sequence I played the game in. The poem can be read without playing the game but it will be helpful if you know some names because the format (quatrains) doesn't allow for a lot of detailed explanation. Please enjoy...
Megaman Zero 1 in Verse
On swiftest feet they run through rubble
Golems shipped out spells out trouble
Find the hero, find him fast
Or this day shall be your last
Three or four or maybe more
Fall on floor in mild gore
At last, feet sore, they reach the door
And blast a hole into the core
"This.. this must be Zero", she says
But more shots end door guard's days
Milan takes a hit and then gives cover
Says to run, then takes another
Ciel is stunned with no response
Then she moves at friend behest
Passy unseals Zero's bonds
He turns to fight at Ciel's request
And fight he does to end of hall
Though he can't remember all
He knows that he will have to fight
And fight he will for what is right
Upon a dead-end, floor gives way
Ciel falls and Zero saves the day
But he gets no time to rest
A Golem is the final test
But the buster proves a worthless gun
Without a weapon, Zero's done
When out of nowhere a friend appears
A comrade Zero once held dear
And give Zero a mighty saber
And tells Zero "Hurry... save her."
Single slash and all is done
The Golem dead, the day is won!
Later at the base of reploids
Ciel has more work to be done
Help the poor souls 'bout to die
To the boss called Aztec Falcon
So then Zero saves his game
That's all for now, come back again
The way was fierce the fights were many
But Zero did not stop for any
He got to the facility
What a boss fight this will be
Bird calls Zero trash and dashes
Zero jumps then hacks and slashes
A simple buster shot or two
And Aztec Falcon's finally through
Just in nick of time as well
Captive takes break for a spell
And zero gets a lightning card
For when fighting flaming foes gets hard
He then returns to the Resistance Base
He'll be done in no time at this pace
He picks another quest to take
Back to the ruin where he did wake
He goes through corridors from before
And fight his way back to the door
The spiders up a skill or three
(At least that's how it worked for me)
Then he finds the watery room
Maha Gainsheriff meets doom
Because the stage is a flooded place
The boss gets shocking sword to face
Signals blare, suggesting trouble
Zero gets out on the double
Lest he be crushed by all debris
But he makes it out, home free
And gets a new toy for his time
The triple rod reward is fine
It will prove handy in times to come
But after this Zero is done
So then Zero saves his game
That's all for now, come back again
Upon return, Zero thinks its fine
To stop the enemy train line
And stop the supplies themselves
As well as reclaim cyber elves
Within the train he's dashing through
Slicing mechaniloids in two,
And killing the engine, (which fights back),
But can't withstand Zero's attack
He rescues Totten, a useful one,
(No more spikes means way more fun)
Far away, in the evil guy's castle
Master X(?) finds Zero a hassle
Wait, you say, that isn't right
X got Zero to start this fight!
This I know, is what I mention,
But Zero doesn't so pay attention
X(?) sent his Guardians to do their thing
And to him the head of Zero bring
Green and Red, Purple and Blue
Look out Zero. They're after you!
Back to our show at the resistance base
Zero just beat another place
And got Fire from the boss he beat
Now he heads off to the desert heat
Facing off against Fefnir's Force
Zero's blade holds no remorse
He flips and slices, zaps and stabs
leaps out from 'tween spiky slabs
And kills some zombies, jumps and slashes
Necromancess, returns to ashes
Zero finds a wounded soldier
Escorts him back as he clutches shoulder
So then Zero saves his game
That's all for now, come back again!
