The Fully Charged Sickness Chapter 1
By Chaokachu
I don't own Mega Man: Fully Charged as it belongs to the respective creators, CAPCOM, Dentsu and the others.
Silicone City Square…
Mega Man fired another buster shot at Fire Man, who had been attempting to set fire to a railway station. He'd been fighting robots non stop for a few hours that day, and was getting tired of it all. The blue-eyed hero bot was tackled to the ground and thrown several metres into a building. Metal clanged as he hit his head pretty badly off the concrete wall.
"Kid! Watch what you're doing, for the sake of our processors!" Mega Mini, his tiny, slightly annoying and mechanically talented sidekick who lived in his head, shouted, peering at the hero from the front light on his helmet.
"Yeah, uhh, pretty hard when you've got a hot-head moron coming at you." Mega Man replied sarcastically, give Mini a tiny nudge. The teeny robot tumbled backwards into his chair again as Mega Man stood up, thinking.
He fired a few more buster shots and then one charge shot. Fire Man dodged the energy blasts and punched Mega Man, quite powerfully, in his blue-armoured stomach. Normally, the Blue Bomber would stand up again and shake it off, but he stayed down, one hand over his stomach, groaning weakly.
"C-c-could we call timeout, Fire Man, because I suddenly don't feel too good." the blue bot groaned, making Fire Man look rather confused, but stop the battle for a few seconds to let Mega Man get up.
And then throw him into a nearby ditch.
"We'll continue our fight tomorrow. Got it, you blue rebel?" Fire Man snarled.
The firey bot walked away from the blue one and disappeared off.
"Woah… wh-what just happened?" Mega Man quietly asked Mini, starting to feel sick and dizzy.
"Do ya think he knows somethin' we don't know yet, boss? Never mind, Diagnostics are sayin' you mighta got some kinda virus or the other." Mini replied, typing on a keyboard and peering up at a screen.
"Lucky me…" Mega Man replied, getting up and walking to a nearby alleyway. "Demeganize." he commanded, turning back to Aki Light and beginning the short walk to his house.
At the Lighthouse…
Aki shoved the front door to his house open, Mini clinging to the hood of his jumper, making his way to the living room. He'd begun to feel worse during his walk, was dizzy and could barely stand up without swaying slightly. His human sister, Suna Light, came in just in time to see her little brother fall forward, his eyes shut. "Aki!" she shouted frantically, running towards him and just managing to catch him. He half opened his eyes again and let go of Suna. He stood for a few minutes, then lay down on the floor. Everything was spinning and he needed it to stop.
"Little brother, what's wrong with you? Why won't you answer?" Suna asked, kneeling down by her little brother, putting one hand on his cheek. There was a pinkish-red blush across his cheeks and nose, and he felt hot.
He had a fever.
"Boss, hey! Don't tell me you actually feel sick, you're gonna have to fight Fire Man tomorrow!" Mini yelled. When Aki had fallen over, he'd leapt to Suna's shoulder, but now he wished he didn't leave, as he could have run Diagnostics again.
And all through this, all through being carried away to his bed by his sister and his dad, all through having Rush sit on him and lick his face to make him wake up, Aki slept.
Alrighty, guys, Chapter 2 of Fully Charged Sickness will be out sooner or later. In that episode, we'll see how Mega Man's battle with both this sickness and Fire Man goes! See you in the next one! -Chaokachu-
