It's Not Easy Being Mayor by GlassSuicune
Note: MegaMan X, Zero, ZX, Battle Network, and StarForce belong to Capcom. I wrote this mostly out of boredom, but I hope you enjoy it nonetheless. It's just a little 'commentary' on the town of Megaville, the obvious setting of my Megaville stories, told by the mayor of the town. Her thoughts are in italics.
This is Megaville...
It's a relatively unnoticed town in the middle of absolutely nowhere.
The people that live here, well, how we go unnoticed is a mystery...
My name is Prairie, and I'm the mayor of this little town.
We're a literal time paradox...
Lan Hikari and Geo Stelar stared at each other blankly, noticing the other looked vaguely like themselves. Finally, the two boys asked each other, "Who in Bananaville are you?" Hub and Omega-Xis were staring at each other, wondering what the heck was going on with the two Humans.
...and plot holes are around every corner!
Girouette threw the newspaper in front of each house, whistling the whole way. Omega suddenly came out to get the paper, and Zero ( who was in his ORIGINAL body) did the same. Both Reploids picked up the respective paper, waved at each other, then ran into their houses, as if nothing was amiss.
We have people who vacuum their lawn...
Elpizo walked around his front yard, vacuuming the grass. X was staring at him absolutely dumb struck from across the street, before shrugging and going back to whatever he was doing. Elpizo ignored the stares he was getting from other people and continued, promptly sucking up a screaming frog without noticing. Well, maybe that's why he vacuums the lawn...
...and mow their carpets.
Ciel blinked, as Elpizo came inside and turned the lawn mower on, cutting up his carpet and subsequently, the wooden floor. Ciel mouthed the phrase 'Are you stupid', but did nothing to stop the Reploid. He probably had his reasons...
UFOs also come once every month...
Axl and Lumine were standing outside Colbor's ice cream shop, each holding a sign. Axl's said 'The aliens will come today', while Lumine's said 'The aliens will come tomorrow'. All of a sudden, Lumine was caught up in a beam of light courtesy of a UFO, and disappeared. The UFO then flew away. Axl then burst out into maniacal laughter. "HA! I WAS RIGHT!" he screamed. He then shrieked and ran as Colbor grabbed a broom and ran out of the shop. "How many times do I have to tell you to quit loitering?" the angry shop owner screamed.
Why the aliens are interested in us, I'll never know. Now, there was something else that had to do with space, but I can't seem to remember what it was...
Grey took a sip of his lemonade as he sat on one of the lawn chairs, relaxing. Ashe and Model A looked upward, and Ashe's pupils suddenly shrank, while Model A did whatever the Biometal equivalent was. The two then hurriedly left the area, not even bothering to tell Grey what was going on. He looked at them quizzically, then shrugged and continued doing nothing. Suddenly, a satellite slammed into the ground right next to him, sending him and the chair airborne. "Woo!" Acid Ace could be heard screaming, "I got one!"
Oh yeah. Satellites can be shot down at any time. And meteors occasionally crash, too.
"METEORS ARE ATTACKING!" Bud Bison screamed, running around in terror, as meteors headed towards the town. "We are so doomed..." Eugene Chaud groaned. Suddenly, the Four Guardians ran outside, each with some kind of cannon. "Don't worry!" Harpuia cried, "We've got this under control!" Right as he and his siblings were about to fire, the meteors hit...and were the size of harmless pebbles. All that freaking out for nothing.
And we also have our very own haunted house...
"You go in." Patrick Sprigs said bluntly, trying to get his other personality Rey to take over. "No, you go in." Rey replied, not wanting to go inside either.
"But I insist! Go in!"
"Oh no, I insist! You go in!"
Vent and Aile stared at Patrick like he was some kind of freak. Finally, the two ran inside the haunted house, while Patrick and Rey continued to argue. The two MegaMen came running out screaming their heads off about five seconds later, some monster with a pumpkin for a head chasing them out.
...You'd think such people would know to stay away from that house by now... Oh but wait, there's more...
The UFO suddenly came back and returned Lumine, who promptly ran across the street screaming his head off, while carrying the Reploid equivalent to a brain, which just so happened to be HIS. MegaMan X, Zero, and Axl watched this absolutely dumb struck, all of them thinking the same exact thing:
He has a brain?
Clearly, the Maverick Hunters were overwhelmed by this stunning revelation.
I know it may seem huge, but I can handle it.
As Lumine ran around like a freak, a car was suddenly blown up by an RPG. "Ha!" Prometheus cried triumphantly, holding the darn thing, "Take that Master Albert!" Craft suddenly walked up to the Grim Reaper. "Ya did it all wrong!" he chastised, pulling out another RPG. He then fired it with stunning accuracy at another car. When it hit, the car flipped and crashed into a building, which burst into flames soon after. Solo and Mayl ran out of the building with their hair on fire, screaming the whole way. "And that's how you do it." Craft said bluntly, patting Prometheus on the head, before walking off. The purple MegaMan blinked, absolutely dumb struck.
Really.
Note: And there ya have it. Review please? To be honest, I don't think this really encapsulated all the sheer craziness of the Megaville neighborhood, but meh, I did my best.
