It was dark in a city, with the sound of motors and sirens echoing through it. The city was burning in the darkness, as the people hid from their doom. Robots ruled the streets, looking for any humans to terminate. They were ruthless killing machines, from Snipers to Hunter models; the people could not stand against their power, agility, and wits. Normally, nothing happens to upset the robots. Until there was quite a stir from a sniper sighting a person. You could hear them saying,
"Moving target at block 15, sector west."
"Subject target: 60-year old man in a white jacket."
"Snipers, pursuit target directly."
An old man in a white jacket was running, possibly trying to get out of the city. But, his old body could not support him as he ran at a slow rate. The only place he could hide was in a dark alleyway. But the nearest one was about ten yards away. The robots that were chasing him opened fire. Now, he ran as fast as his body could, and got into the alleyway in time. But, as he was running in, he tripped over some metal, which luckily gave him cover.
"Target not found; Snipers fall back."
It took a good 10 minutes for the robots to leave. With that time, the man could catch his breath from running for his life. He got up, seeing the last robot to leave. "Never try to out run those things." He said, sighing. He then saw in astonishment on what he tripped over.
It was a human-like blue robot android, also with a matching helmet, with a gray streak going down it. It also has a black jacket. But when he took a better look at it, the robot had bruises, scratches, dust, and dirt all over it. "How did you get this beaten up?" The man thought. "Well why waste a good robot?" He picked it up, and walked back to where his "Home" was. But what he didn't know what was printed on his left boot. It said, "Mega man, created by the Wily Empire."
The man had fixed the robot for hours, but to the man, it felt like days. When the man was taking a break, a teenager had seen the robot inside. He rubbed his eyes to see if it was real. He then shouted, "Hey, Dr. Light! What the hell are you doing with a robot? Don't they rule us!" Dr. Light had seen him, and calmly replied, "No, this one isn't dangerous. I found it in a dark alley way, knocked out. It might've been thrown out." The teen shook his head, and said; "I'm not going to your funeral when you get blasted." he left afterwards. "Teenagers these days, they have no hope." Dr. Light then continued his work.
Later, when Dr. Light was asleep, the robot turned on by himself. He then opened his eyes, which were blurry. "Darn dust getting in my eyes." He blinked a few times before getting up. "Where am I, exactly?" He mumbled. Soon, Dr. Light got up from his alarm. Then, he was walking over to the room were the robot was to check on him. Dr. Light saw the robot awake. The robot turned around and looked straight into the doctor's eyes. Dr. Light saw despair and confusion in his emerald green eyes. He jumped back in amusement, falling on his back. The robot got down. The robot walked over to the fallen human, and saw through his pale blue eyes one thing. Terror. What kind of stuff has he been through? He probably had horrible times with robots. The robot knelt down, reaching out his hand. "Are you ok?" The man grabbed it. "I'm sorry I startled you. I'm Mega man." Dr. Light had gotten up. "Well, I'm Dr. Thomas Light. But, Dr. Light for short."
Later in the morning, Mega man and Dr. Light were talking. "Why were you scared when you saw me?" Mega man questioned. "Well, it's a very long story. But I should tell you." Dr. Light took in a deep breath, ready to tell the long story. "Nowadays, Robots are ruling the world thanks to Dr. Wily." Mega man already got confused. "How?" Dr. Light continued, "Well, he creates many terrible machines to put us in terror. They are war machines, built for only one purpose; to kill the remaining humans. But, they cannot come into our houses." Mega man took some time to think. "Let me guess, they're too big?" Dr. Light smirked. "Of course. They're too many rocket launchers on their shoulders to fit, and they'll get damaged if they break in." Mega man still had a confused look on his face. "How did I get in that alley way?" Dr. Light stroked his white beard. "That I don't know. But how you got here is a question I can answer. Last night, I was running away from some Sniper models. Then, I found you all beaten up in the alleyway, so I took you here to fix you." Mega man nodded. Dr. Light's eyes were pointed to the floor. "I think you're a battle android, Mega man."
Mega man's head shot up. "Battle android?" He stood up. Dr. Light looked at his right arm. "I've seen your kind before. Just turn your right arm into a buster." Mega man thought, Buster? He clenched his hand into a fist. Suddenly, a sound came from his arm. Battle mode engaged. Then his right hand turned into a blue plasma buster. "I guess I am made for battle." Soon enough, there was a huge blast from down the street, with numerous cries and yells. They both looked out a window. Dr. Light stood up. "Oh, No! The Masters are here!" Dr. Light started pacing the floor, his hands on his head in worry. Mega man looked at him, not in shock at all. "Who are the Masters?" Dr. Light stopped. He gave Mega man no eye contact. "They are the most powerful robots. They kill the most humans. No one can oppose them. The only ones that can put up a fight are other robots." Mega man looked outside. People were running on the streets, frantically screaming. "I'll go stop them." Mega man bravely stated. Dr. Light looked at him. "You possibly can't… It's too late now." Mega Man looked straight at him. "No, it's not too late. It is never too late." He looked outside again. "There has to be a way to stop them. You probably think that. But, you don't know how. These people need someone, and that's me." He paused. "I'm a battle android, so I'll use this buster for good use." Dr. Light sighed, reached into his jacket pocket, and gave Mega man a small ear phone.
"It's a communicator, so we can keep in touch. Just put it in your ear." He instructed. Mega man did so, and said, "Humanity will get freedom. I promise." He then dashed out the door, with his black jacket waving. Dr. Light mumbled, "It's too late."
