Rock & Roll
Chapter 1 : Redesigned

It's been three weeks since Megaman put a stop to Wily's computer virus— Roboenza. He wasn't alone that time, though— he got a help from his estranged brother Protoman and— surprisingly— his rival Bass.

Since then, peace has come to both humans and robots. Dr. Wily, though, is nowhere to be found ever since he ran away from hospital— and leaves a large amount of Roboenza medicines in the room he was, possibly as 'thanks' to Megaman for rescuing him from his doom. The police is still pursuing for the mad doctor, because like it or not, the doctor needs to put in jail.

Rock— a robot boy created by Dr. Light who is well-known as Megaman— was happy that he can finally spent his whole free times with his family. Every Light bots and Dr. Light himself were very happy for this peaceful moment, especially Roll.

Ever since Roll was cured from Roboenza, she's all active. She clean the house as usual, do all the housework with Rock's help sometimes, and tried so many new recipes to cook for Dr. Light to eat (which the doctor glad for). She once tried to put spices on the E-Tanks that Rock, her, and other robots like to drink. Kinda weird, yes. But she and everyone loves it in the end, and now they knew the taste of any foods Dr. Light has eaten.

As for the other two robots who helped Megaman in stopping Roboenza— Protoman and Bass— they left without a trace. Protoman is... well, being 'Protoman'. Bass is nowhere in sight too, along with his robot dog Treble.

Roll would wonder where the two might be each time she sweep the house or cleaning the dishes. It confuse her to know that they prefer to be alone and not have anyone as their company (save for Bass— he got Treble with him. But still...).

"...-oll."

Huh?

"Roll!"

It took two seconds and a wave of a hand in front of her face before Roll could blink in surprise and brought out from her world of thoughts. Her eyes darted to her right, and she found her brother Rock stood there with his hands now on his hips, his short brown hair is shown as he's not wearing his blue armor at the moment.

"Spaced out again, aren't you?" Rock said, before letting a light chuckle escaped his mouth. "The last four days, I found you always spaced out when either you sweep the house and washing the dishes, you know?"

Rock took one of the dirty dishes, taking a soap-foamed sponge and began to clean it. The sink is big enough for two kids to stand side-by-side and clean the dishes, and Roll is glad to see Rock decides to help her with the piles of dirty dishes— that somehow increase in numbers than yesterday.

"What were you thinking about, Roll?" Rock asked his sister, his eyes still focused to the plate he cleans. "Maybe I could help you somehow? I'm free at the moment."

I'm free at the moment. Roll repeated the words in her head. She noticed those words were always out from her brother's mouth, every time when he saw the others needs help. Rock cares for his family and the others more, so much that he forgets about himself at times.

For example, back when Dr. Light is giving away the Roboenza medicines, the old doctor is all tired and about to take a break when another wave of robots came to him— all were infected by Roboenza, and the robots are increased in numbers. Seeing his dad is completely tired, Rock offered himself to gave the medicine away to the sick-bots while letting his dad to take a break. The robot boy do it nonstop— he even turned down Dr. Light's offer to take a break by reasoning that the doctor needs more rest than he do while saying that he's "free at the moment"— until all the sick-bots are all healthy and went back home.

That's when the problem started. Mind you, computerized or not, virus is contagious. So it was a shock for the Light's family when they saw Rock back from the 'healing' job and suddenly collapses. Dr. Light's scan shows that a large amount of Roboenza has spread within Rock's body from his direct contact with the sick-bots, and it took 7 days and 21 E-Tanks filled with liquefied Roboenza medicines— given 3 each day at morning, noon, and night— to make Rock back to his healthy state.

Roll bit her lip at the memory. Sure, her brother is the well-known blue hero Megaman, but boy, he's careless about himself, isn't he? It irritates her a bit to know her brother is like that.

Cockroaches are more irritating, though. Roll thought, before finally deciding to answer her brother's question.

"Errr... Yeah. Well..." Roll stumbled over her words, trying to find a topic that was far away from Protoman and Bass' whereabouts. It's not about lying, Roll just know that a frown will appear on Rock's face if she told him that she was thinking about their estranged brother— Protoman. She wasn't sure Rock would do the same for the latter, though.

It was then Kalinka came across her mind. Truth to be told, Roll was envy of how Kalinka has grown. Last time the robot girl seen her, Kalinka had her yellow hair longer than the first time Roll saw her after Protoman rescued her from Wily's captive. Not to mention Kalinka was way taller than her now, which saddened Roll somehow. Kalinka has made her envy at times, and to think she could grow like Kalinka was...

Wait, that's it!

"W-Well, Rock... I was thinking about... something," Roll began, looking to her brother to make sure that Rock is listening carefully at each words she says. "You know Kalinka... right?"

Rock arched an eyebrow up at the question. Putting down the third plate he has cleaned to the side, he said, "Uh, yeah. We all know her, including me. Who don't? Also, what do you mean by that, Roll?"

"Uhm... Rock?" the robot girl called nervously, putting another newly-cleaned plate to the side. "... Did you ever thought... to grown up?"

Rock blinked in surprise at the question, and would let the newly-cleaned plate in his hands fall if he didn't come back to his senses. "H-Huh?" the robot boy muttered in confusion, head tilting to the side. "Well, not really. What's the matter?"

"It may sounds weird, but..." Roll nervously moved her fingers to her yellow hair, playing with some of its strands. "W-Well... Is there a chance Dad would... approve my request to... redesign us to be more teenager-like looking? Today...?"

If Rock was drinking his E-Tank, he would likely spat the contents out of his mouth in shock. But no, luckily he wasn't doing that at the moment, so all he did was let his eyes bulged out as he flinched.

"W-What? Roll, you know Dad made us the way we are now up to his heart's content. So why need a redesign?" Rock asked, sounded completely flabbergasted at his sister's idea. Sure, he was a bit (a very tiny little bit) envy about Roll having a bit human-like looking body, but…

"Aww, Rock, come on!" Roll pleaded, placing the last cleaned-dishes to her side before turned around to face Rock. "It wouldn't be bad, would it? Besides, I'm sure Dad would understand!"

"I'm not quite sure about that, Roll," Rock replied, hands on his hips. "And besides, Dad is currently gone to the city for helping the science fair held there. By the time he came back home, I'm sure he is all tired."

"Then we'll let Dad take a rest for an hour or so! After that, we can ask him for the redesign!" Roll said enthusiastically, smiling widely.

Rock shook his head before he sighs. "Now, now, Roll... You know it would be rude if you do that. Also, why must today?"

Roll's smile grew bigger. "Well, I'd like to feel the joy of being taller fast, so—!"

"That's some request you got there, dear Roll." a new voice of an older man said, making both Roll and Rock tensed before they turned to the voice's source.

Standing in front of the kitchen's entrance is an old man wearing a white lab coat with white hair and white beard. He looks kinda plump, one might say. But no one can match his intelligence in machinery.

That's right— he's Dr. Thomas Light, the creator of Rock, Roll, and the rest of the Light's family.

Rock was the first to regain his senses back. "D-Dad! How long have you been standing there?" the brunette boy asked, sounding completely surprised.

"Ever since Roll asked you about her idea, my dear boy," Dr. Light replied while chuckling lightly, walking up to his two creations. "The science fair was ended quickly than I thought it would be, so it must be a surprise for you two to see me back already, right?"

"Wait a sec... You've heard my idea, Dad?" Roll smiled widely, stepping in front of her father with big hope. "T-Then, can you do it right now, Dad? Pleaaaaase?!"

"R-Roll! Dad's just got home!" Rock said, almost loudly. "And you told me you're going to let him take a rest for an hour or so!"

"Ah... I'm all fine, Rock. I didn't do much at the science fair. Just do an opening speech and signing autographs, that's all," Dr. Light told the robot boy. "Moreover, I can do just the thing Roll asked me to the rest of the family."

"D-Dad! Don't push yourself too hard!" Rock protested. "You just got home!"

"Again, Rock, I didn't do much at the science fair, so I'm still full of energy," Dr. Light said with a laugh. "Well... Who wants to go first?"

"Me, me, ME!" Roll shouted eagerly, right hand raised into the air. "I want to get myself taller fast~!"

~~~~0~~~~

- Later that day... -

Eek... I guess Dad was planning to redesign us, after all... And with upgrades? Wow.

Rock quietly scanned through Dr. Light's blue prints, watching his and the rest of the Light's family are drawn on each of the blue papers. Rock saw himself on two blue prints— one drawn with him fully armored, and the other drawn with him more like a teenager than...

"Rock! Turn this way, please! I haven't seen your new look~!"

Rock sighs at the happy voice of his sister, placing the blue prints back to the table before he turned around.

There he saw Roll, now a lot more taller than she was before— like a teenager. Her long yellow hair is still held up as a ponytail by a green ribbon, only her bangs are now two-separated locks of hair that were slightly-high. She wore two unique-styled, circle-shaped earrings on her ears that color matched her bright blue eyes, and the outfit she currently wore consist of a brick red dress with long dark blue sleeves with white cuffs, and red boots with dark blue rims that length just below her knees.

Rock found Roll's outfit to be familiar. He then remembered she first wore the outfit back at the time Dr. Wily uses this dark thing called 'Evil Energy' for doing his evil plans.

Well, Dr. Light must made Roll's old outfit larger so she could wear it again with no problem with her teenager-designed body.

"Why look at you, Rock! You look so cute! And your hair now looks more stylish~!" Roll commented happily, eyeing her brother from head to toe in excitement. "What do you think about yourself now, Rock?"

Rock brought his bright green eyes down to take a look at himself. He— like Roll— also got a redesign to become as tall as a teenager. He now looked more... human-like. If his (former) 'kid' body had his feet in blue 'boots', his now teenager-like body made him knew how having a real feet feels like.

Rock still had his short brown hair, albeit a bit stylish (according to Roll). His outfit is now different, consisting of a no-zipper, big light blue hoodie that supports white draw-strings, and a drawing— on the upper left part— of an upside-down triangle below a writing that says 'Dr. L Lab'. Also, the end of each of the long sleeves and the lower end of the hoodie at the bottom are gently rounded. He also wore blue short shorts made from a material of a jeans, white socks, and light blue house slippers with drawings of white propeller inside a red circle— which remind him of Airman, somehow.

"Well, Roll... I've got to say that I like this new look of mine," Rock finally answered his sister's question, still looking to himself— especially his feet. "This is... totally awesome."

"See, Rock? It wasn't so bad to got a redesign, was it~?" Roll said with a hint of triumph, which quickly hit Rock like a ton of bricks.

"Fine, fine... You're right, Roll. It wasn't so bad," Rock said boringly with a loud sigh, while Roll jumped in joy knowing that she had 'won'.

Dr. Light entered the room where Rock and Roll currently at with a huge smile on his face.

"Why, look at you two! Aren't you looking great?" Dr. Light said with a laugh, walking up to his two creations before placing each of his hands to their heads. "It's as if I watch you both grown!"

"Well, Dad, you got to thank your machinery-intelligence, your blue prints, and the eager Roll for that," Rock said to his father, while Roll narrowed her eyes to her brother.

Dr. Light looked at Rock. "Ah... So you've seen the blue prints, hmm?" the old doctor muttered with a chuckle. "Then you must have seen the upgrades I put on the robots I redesign."

"All of your creations are redesigned now, Dad. Also, I haven't seen Roll's blue print yet." Rock corrected, while Roll was more interested with the upgrades.

"Do I get upgrades too, Dad?" Roll asked, as she was back to her eager mode (says Rock). And upon seeing her father gave her a nod, Roll said, "Really?! W-What's it, Dad? What's the upgrades I—!"

Roll really, really wanted to finish her question, but she was cut off by Auto bursting into the room. He too— like Rock and Roll— has been completely redesigned.

"Doctor, Doctor! Oh, it's terrible!" the big green bot exclaimed, sounding frantic. "You must watch the TV— NOW!"

By Auto's way in saying all of that, Dr. Light, Rock, and Roll knew something's up— and it couldn't be good. So with a nod, Dr. Light snatched a TV remote from his table full of blue prints before he pushed the power button.

"—and with that, I'll begin my announcement."

Everyone in the room froze in shook upon witnessing the face shown on the TV screen. Dr. Light is the first to recover from the shock, and changed the channels of the TV, only to meet the same face as before.

"I-I think it has hacked through all of the TV stations, w-which means, it was broadcast to worldwide..." Auto informed, as Dr. Light gave him a quick look of shock before he diverts his attention back to the TV screen.

It's unbelievable to see that face on the TV. Everyone in the room thought the face would show up on the news of missing people. But no, it was a live broadcast, and by not showing up on the missing people news, everyone in the room— especially Rock— knew that the face was ready to launch a new plan of world domination.

Rock's hands balled to fist at his sides, his face looks serious upon watching that dark grinning face of a certain old doctor he knew on the TV screen.

"Dr. Wily..."


Why you look at that! Wily's back after being 'missing'! And wow, writing description is sure hard, eh? For example, about Roll's bangs here. I scanned through Google for the name of the bangs for like, two hours. But boy, I don't found any! So I made the description myself... Yeah, awkward... xD

If some of you questioning and guessing, then I'll tell you that, well, at the first half of this Chapter, Rock (his hair is brown, alright?), Roll, and the rest of the Light's family are still with the style of Keiji Inafune's (why you need to quit Capcom, Mr. Keiji? :(). At the second half, they're all now redesigned as Hitoshi Ariga's style of Light's family (or Right's family, accroding to Dr. Light's japanese name). Since Protoman was... well, being 'Protoman', then he's still on his Keiji Inafune's style. As for Bass and Treble... well, they're still on their Keiji Inafune's style, too.

Oh, right... If any of you didn't get the idea of how Rock's looked like at this Chapter after get redesigned, then please check this link :

I made this Chapter for like, five days ago or so (with some help of Google Translate at some words, since— like I said before— English is my second language, the first being Indonesian). But really, it's entertaining to write in English, and boy, everyone thinks I'm that good at English lesson (families and friends— and teachers), while in real, I sometimes not good at grammar or vocabulary.

So if any of you noticed mistakes, then let me know— I'll gladly appreciate it if you do! Also, review and give me your thoughts about this Chapter— it'll made my day if you do! :D

Well, guess that's all for now. See you all next time in the next Chapter! Also, have a good day, buddies~! O:)
