Mega Man: The Rules of Love

Chapter 1: Rock's "New" Classmate

(A/N: hey guys! I'm not dead! Here with a Mega Man fanfic, but better than the last one! This one focuses on the original Mega Man continuity, mainly based on the DreamWave comics. Enjoy!)

/

It was about 5:00 in the morning, at the laboratory and home of Dr. Thomas Light. An alarm clock was beeping in one room of the house. It was the bedroom of an android boy. He wore a light blue t-shirt, navy blue jeans, and had a blue watch used for a special purpose. The boy also had spiky blackish-brown hair and blue eyes. Best known by his alter-ego (activated via the above-mentioned watch), Mega Man, this little 14 year old android is named Rock "Rocky" Light.

Rock woke up and turned off the beep on his alarm really exhausted. He didn't sleep well. The previous night, Mega Man was engaged in a brutal battle with his arch-rival Bass. The toll took a lot out of the both of them, but Mega Man was barely able to win. Now Rock was still recovering, and extremely tired.

Rock went down stairs and got ready, before eating breakfast. He was now living a sort of double-life. Even a robotic superhero that is always attempting to stop Dr. Wily's sinister plots has to go to school. He attends Mega City Junior High School as his android self, but no one in the school know what or who he really is...and that's how Rock wants it like!

"Good morning, Rock." said Dr. Light.

"Morning, Dr. Light..." Rock said, tiredly, as he sat down for breakfast.

The food was pancakes. They were being made and served by Rock's little sister Roll. She wore a red dress, and had blonde ponytail hair, with a green braid, and she also had green eyes.

"Breakfast is served!" she said as she set three plates of pancakes and the three ate breakfast. Rock was being the slowest to eat, being very exhausted from the battle the previous night.

"Rock, if you don't finish those pancakes fast enough, you're going to be late for school!" said Dr. Light.

"I know, Dr. Light..." he said, sluggishly, slowly finishing his pancakes, but a bit too slow.

"I bet he's still thinking of Chelsea again!" Roll teased. This made Rock blush a lot and nearly choke on his own food. He secretly had a big crush on his brunette classmate and Roll constantly teases him about it.

"Please, Roll. Not now..." said Rock. He left his plate, only 3/4th finished with his pancakes, got his backpack and started to walk sheepishly out the door and towards school.

Rock was still sluggishly walking down the streets towards the Junior High School. It's because of this he brought with him an E-Tank Energy drink. It would help him get through some of the day. As he began to get back into his senses, he noticed his two friends waving to him.

The first one was a red-haired, green-eyed boy, in a casual green jacket, yellow necktie, and beige pants. This boy was Alan, who quickly became Rock's best friend when he first started school. Alan is a bit on the geeky and dorky side, but he and Rock are always looking out for one another and would not lie to each other...well except the fact Rock is really an android and he's also Mega Man.

And the other one was a brazen-haired beauty that had green eyes, black & yellow sweatshirt/shirt, yellow miniskirt, and purple high-heels, with a smile that made Rock instantly forget about everything else. Her hair style was like Rock and Roll's hair styles combined. This girl was named Chelsea and since day one, Rock has been head-over-heels for her.

"Hey guys!" Rock waved back, coming back to reality and rushing over to them. He then started walking to school with the duo.

"I was worried we were gonna have to go walk without ya, buddy!" said Alan. "What took ya?"

"Didn't sleep well..." said Rock.

"How come?" asked the red-head geek.

Rock hesitated for a minute. He didn't want to tell them his true identity, nor did he want Chelsea to be worried about him and get into harm's way in the future. So he thought up of a quick lie.

"Long evening..."

"Oh...okay." Alan simply replied.

There was a brief moment of silence as they continued to walk to school. It was Chelsea that disrupted it: "Hey, did you know there's a new kid at school now?"

"Oh really?" said Rock. "D'ya know who it is?"

"I bumped into him yesterday in the playground. His name's Jackie Inafune. He didn't say much, though, and only acted a bit friendly to me."

(A/N: If you're a big Mega Man fan, you'll know where I got the last name for this "human character" your gonna "see" in a bit)

The trio kept talking about their lives all walk long until they at last reached the school. They started walking up to their first class: math. Rock enjoyed math quite a lot. Being an android, he's one of the best students in there and quite skilled in every type of mathematics. Chelsea, on the other hand, was struggling immensely, so both Rock and Alan have been offering her some extra help. It's been working thus far.

Rock, Alan, and Chelsea took their seats in class. Rock sat in the middle of the 3rd row of desks; Alan sat right right in front of him, and Chelsea, sat over to his left, in the 2nd row. The rest of the class took their seats, as the teacher, Mr. Kazawe, brought forth a new student.

(A/N: There are 5 rows of desks in the classroom, each having like 8 desks per row.)

This student had dark brown hair, dark-shaded sunglasses, a red t-shirt, and raven-purple jeans. This was obviously the new student Chelsea had referenced earlier, but Rock knew who this student really was...

"Class, I would like to introduce Jackie Inafune" said Mr. Kazawe. "He's a new student, who transferred here from Station Square Memorial High School."

(A/N: Everyone knows this is a lie, but...well, the dude falsified his "documentation", shall we say.)

"Please sir, just call me Jack." Jack bowed to the teacher in respect and took his seat next to Rock. The blue android was no fool; he knew who this new student really was, but it confused him all the more why he would go to school. But even so, Rock knew the truth behind this new student. There was no denying who he really was...

"Proto Man..."
