This is the "Normal Ending" in which the CPUs manage to defeat both Kurome and Mega Man Neo. If you want this ending, you just have to beat them in the (final) battle.
The city of Planeptune was completely in disarray. The streets were raised or lowered as if an earthquake hit them. Fortunately for the CPUs, all residents of Planeptune had evacuated.
The Mavericks and Monsters were all destroyed. Though the remains of the Monsters were no where to be seen, the Mavericks' remains were clearly seen; Scattered across the land.
Mega Man Neo was lying against building rubble, twitching and growling. The nine CPUs approached the beaten dark hero, most with stern expressions and most others with looks of concern and worry.
"Gaah...!" Neo and Mega cried in anger and pain. The Goddesses had given him quite the beating, demonstrated by the fact that his armor was broken and battered, complete with cracks and even a large gaping hole on the side of his helmet, revealing his black spiky hair sticking out.
Note: Rokku's hair is brown. His hair turns black when he fuses with Mega Man to become Mega Man Neo.
Mega Man Neo glared at the CPU primarily before him: Purple Heart.
"You... Where's... Kurome...?" Neo and Mega asked, coughing too. "What have... You done to her...?"
"She's no longer here you two..." Purple Heart (Neptune) revealed. "She can longer control you..."
"Yeah! So come back you guys!" White Sister (Ram) cried.
"Please..." White Sister (Rom) pleaded.
Neo and Mega growled. "Back off! I don't need you guys...! You... Killed her...! You killed her...!"
He began to pound his clenched fist on the ground, making noticeable dents in the floor with each slam. "I was her friend..! I was someone she could count on...! And you guys just went and-"
"Enough!" Black Heart (Noire) yelled. "You were her friend?! You were someone she could count on?! All of that is what she wanted you both to think; To satisfy her own selfish desires! You need to think for yourselves! Do you really believe she was your friend?!"
Neo stopped pounding and glared at the ground, shaking violently. He was already injured enough, even with this incredibly strong armor and power the two boys had when they became Mega Man Neo. His eyes were hidden from the girls as he stared at the ground, teeth clenched.
Purple Heart and Purple Sister stepped closer to Neo and knelt down to face him. In their eyes they could see Rokku simply wearing armor and a "spirit" or "hologram" of Mega Man in the same place. They were seeing double and it reflected on their bond...
"Listen to us, boys. You no longer have to feel like this..." Purple Heart (Neptune) began. "Together, you are Mega Man Neo, a hero who fights for peace. Isn't that what you told us...?"
Neo and Mega remained silent...Though, their expression softened. "..."
"We just want you guys back. Your real selves with your real personalities...! We want Rokku and Mega Man who's smart..."
"...Fun...!" White Sisters (Rom and Ram) added, with big smiles.
"...Naive yet means well..." Black Heart (Noire) extended, smiling a little herself.
"...Good listeners..." White Heart (Blanc) also added.
"...Wonderful gaming companions..." Green Heart (Vert) said with her fingers between her other fingers and a smile.
"...Comforting and nice..." Black Sister (Uni) continued.
"...Really cool...!" Orange Heart (Uzume) added.
"...And the best friends Goddesses like us could ever ask for..." Purple Heart (Neptune) concluded. She then extended her arms, awaiting for Mega Man Neo to hug her. Neo leaned his head up, one eye closed while the other widened in surprise. "Come now. You don't have to feel this way anymore..."
Neo's lips quivered. Almost immediately, he used what he had to lean towards Purple Heart and hug her as tight as he could. The Planeptune Goddess felt his embrace and returned it without hesitation. Slowly, the darkness surrounding his armor was brightening up. It was returning back to it's original color at a steady pace with bright digital particles and sparkles spreading across his body. His eyes had also finally returned back to their normal blue color.
Suddenly, a bright light of program data engulfed his entire body. In seconds, Mega Man and Rokku split up, escaping Purple Heart's hug and falling on their bottoms. Rokku shook his head comically, holding his head. His left eye was closed while his other was half-open. He was pretty bruised, but not injured. Mega Man was the same way, though he wasn't wearing his usual helmet, revealing his brown hair.
"Owwwww..." Rokku whined, feeling aching pain all around his body.
"That was some beating..." Mega winced, stretching his Reploid arm.
The Goddesses looked at the two boys in awe. Purple Heart and Purple Sister stood on their feet, staring at them.
"Rocky...? Meggy...? Is that... Truly you?" Purple Heart (Neptune) asked.
Rokku stopped scratching his head and looked at Purple Heart with his young, chipper (yet a little weak after the beating) eye; The one that was half-opened. He gave her a small grin. "I'm...Here...!"
Mega gave a thumbs up to the girls, wincing a little and with his right eye closed. "We're okay... Back to normal too...! Don't worry...!"
Everyone started to smile. All at once, they transformed back to their human forms and ran to Rokku and Mega Man.
"Heeeeeeeeey~!" Neptune yelled as she wrapped her arms around the boys' necks, causing them to squirm uncomfortably. "Rokku! Mega! You guys are free from her little spell~!"
Rokku's eye began twitching. The Planeptune Goddess was going to kill the 13 year old human at this rate...!
"Owowowowowow! Leggo! Leggo!" Rokku whined.
"Please, let go..." Mega added, letting out a small chuckle. "It feels like I got pins and needles in my circuitry..."
However, Rom and Ram then joined in on the hug, Rom hugging Mega Man and Ram hugging Rokku from the sides.
"Mega Man...!" Rom happily cried.
"Rocky!" Ram cried.
"Owwwwwwwwwwwww...!" Rokku whined, comical tears dangling from his right eye.
"Guys... Can you let us go for just a quick minute? Rokku's going to have broken bones and my reploid nervous system is going to go crazy...!" Mega politely asked, his mouth forming a wavy line.
"Goodness! Guys, take it a little easy!" Nepgear pleaded, kneeling beside the group.
On the sidelines stood Vert, Blanc, Uzume, Noire and Uni. They stared happily at the group welcoming the two outworlders' return.
"At least, we know that Rokku and Mega had not completely succumbed to the Dark CPU's corruption." Vert said happily. "Our friends must be very happy to be normal once again!"
"It is nice to see them back to their normal selves..." Blanc admitted with a smile.
"I guess... At least those two aren't using that "Mega Man Neo" power on us." Noire said, folding her arms across her chest. "It'd be a real pain to keep fighting a crazy little kid with so much power."
"Yeah. Glad they finally realized what they were REALLY fightin' for!" Uzume said happily. But then she looked over at Noire for a brief moment. "But Noire, you have to admit that you're happy to see Rocky and Meggy too. Admit it!"
Noire looked away for a moment, her cheeks warming up a little. "Y-Yeah, I'm happy..."
"Hmhm, but you don't sound like you're happy!" Vert chimed in.
"I AM happy!" Noire retorted, her cheeks getting redder. "What do you guys want from me!?"
"Just to hear you let out how happy you are to see them. I have a feeling that you would be upset at the thought of them beating you if they were still under that fake's influence." Blanc also added, a small teasing smile on her face.
Noire let out a agitated sigh, her cheeks completely red. "Okay fine! I'm REALLY happy to see them! They are the strangest duo I've ever met, but honestly... They are one of a kind... And I would've been... Sad to see them go back on what they promised to do with that power given to them..."
"Well said, Noire!" Uzume congratulated, patting her back. "Didn't hurt to be honest, did it?"
"Besides, it's not everyday we get to see boys who can fight just as well as we can!" Uni added.
"Though, I wonder... How strong are their enemies on their world, Earth?" Vert questioned. "Mega Man Neo's power is as strong as a Goddess or two and it can even increase in a tight situation... Is his enemies this strong, if not stronger?"
"Don't know, but I don't care!" Uzume said. "As long as those losers don't go comin' to OUR world, we'll be good!"
The five CPUs looked at Rokku and Mega Man squirming in pain as Neptune, Rom and Ram apologize for causing them harm. After apologizing, they all just started to have a happy laugh at it all.
But, Rokku and Mega Man soon stopped laughing and stared at the sky. The thunderclouds were clearing up and they could see a glimmer of sunlight beam through the clouds. They squinted at the sky in unison, both sharing the same thoughts...
Kurome...
...She was... Gone...
"Oh Kurome..." Rokku thought. "I wish Mega and I could've done something sooner... I thought we could... Help you... I'm...I'm sorry... I'm so sorry..."
"Rokku and I could've prevented this..." Mega thought. "If only we escaped sooner... We could've talked to you Kurome... I'm really sorry... Kurome..."
The boys stared at the sky for a while... They could feel a bit of failure in their hearts... They both knew they didn't do something completely right... Like they had hoped... But...
"Hey, you two~!" Neptune cried.
Rokku and Mega shrieked and looked at the Planeptune Goddess. The others were staring at them, curious if they were okay.
"Is something the matter?" Nepgear asked them.
"O-Oh, no Nepgear... We're okay, don't worry!" Mega assured her.
"Then what are you two doing; Gawking at the sky like weirdos?! Come on! We gotta celebrate!" Neptune cried excitedly.
Rokku and Mega Man looked at each other and nodded. In unison, they stood on their two feet... And started to wobble. Neptune immediately went to Mega and Nepgear to Rokku, helping them.
"Woooooow, you guys aren't looking too dandy right now!" Neptune said, wrapping Mega Man's arm around her shoulder.
"Goodness, we didn't exactly take it easy on you two earlier...! We're sorry!" Nepgear apologized, Rokku's arm wrapped around her shoulder.
"Hey, it's okay! As long as I can mash the jump and shoot buttons with my thumbs, I'm okay!" Rokku grinned adorkably.
"Umm, yeah! What Rokku said!" Mega said with a small chuckle.
Noire and Ram went over to also help Rokku while Uni and Rom went with Mega.
"R-Really guys, we aren't THAT injured." Mega Man said, smiling nervously.
"Shush, Reploid. You're going to need some medical attention after this... Yeesh, you guys weren't exactly easy to beat...!" Noire said, holding Mega's hand.
"Rokku, are you sure you're okay? You aren't a CPU like us or a Reploid like Mega..." Uni asked.
"I told you, I'm fine!" Rokku chuckled. "Trust me, Mega Man and I have been hit FAR worse than this! Why don't you guys fight our rival, Bass Kai!? I bet you guys won't beat him so easily!"
"Please! We'll knock him out just like we did to you two!" Uzume bragged.
"Hehehe, I'm sure you can beat Bass Kai, but you won't have a easy time doing it..." Mega Man laughed.
As the nine Goddesses escorted Rokku and Mega Man to the Planeptune Basilicom, that was in need of repair by the way, the boys couldn't help but think about what they had done under Kurome's influence.
They had hurt innocent people... That was something they had to live with... But even if Kurome made them do those awful things and almost had them kill their Goddess friends, they had to admit that they wanted to... Help her...
Somehow and someway...
Perhaps they can... In a different scenario...
There's only one more ending left... But... What else could there be? Rokku and Mega Man are saved... Is there something else missing...?
Stay tuned to find out in the Good Ending...AKA, the TRUE ENDING!
