Mega Man
Cave of Destiny
Part 3 of the New War
Hey guys. Due to a bad past misunderstanding, I've stopped writing my Mega Man fics. Then, after beating every Mega Man game I have and later beating Mega Man X5, (these are all truly owned objects of Capcom and other dudes that aren't me. In other words, I don't own Mega Man and other related characters) , that I remembered why I write. For love of the series. So alot of you don't like me, that's ok. You can't stop me from doing something I love.
Mega Man had been along a worn path through a nice meadow area, on his way to the Cave of Darkness. He was thinking about the odd robot found in the next town. Could it be Zero? When he had viewed the video feed of the ship's explosion, Mega Man could of sworn he saw Zero float the other way. Mega Man was so caught up in his thoughts, he didn't notice the hoard of Bubble Bats flying towards him. The sudden sound of squeaks and flapping wings brought Mega Man back to his senses, but it was too late. The lead Bubble Bat smacked Mega Man right in the head. Mega Man stumbled back, stunned by the hit, and was soon engulfed in the huge mass of bats. All you could see was bats on bats. Then, a glow could be seen, and soon a huge ball of plasma energy ripped through many of the Bubble Bats. The survivors retreated and regrouped. Mega Man jumped to his feet and aimed his X Buster at the nearest bat. He set the auto fire option on his arm cannon on and started to fire away. One by one, all the bats were brought down. When the last bat had been destroyed, Mega Man was knee deep in Bubble Bat scraps. He dug through some of it and retrieved a still operational sonar chip that all Bubble Bats had built in. He pocketed it, knowing he could get a good price for it.
An hour later, he was at the entrance to the cave. The entrance was huge. One mile wide, and three miles high. Mega Man could see down some of the way, but it seemed the cave went on for miles. Mega Man charged up his X Buster, and fired the bright energy ball. The blast lit up more of the cave, but it kept going and after a few short minutes, was out of sight. "Well, this is one long cave. Might as well get going," said Mega Man. He knew he was nervous, because that's the only time he talked to himself. Mega Man was a great fighter and brave warrior, but he still had his fears. One of them was being trapped underground. Even worse, being trapped in the dark. Mega Man shook his head, and focused on the task ahead. He stepped into the mouth of cave, and fell through and invisible hole.
Mega Man fell for what seemed like hours before he noticed that this was a bottomless pit. He used the thrusters on his boots to push himself against the wall. He then used his hand to slow down his free fall. He was still falling too fast, so he used the hover option on the jet boots to stop the fall. As soon as the hover thrusters kicked in, Mega Man almost had a heart attack. Less than a few feet under him, was a bed of spikes. He had come very close to death. Mega Man looked above him, and could see the light at the top of the pit. He then used his wall kick technique to climb up out of the pit. After a very long and exhausting climb, Mega Man pulled himself out of the pit. He then activated the jet thrusters on his boots, and was soon speeding through the cave. Things went good for awhile. There were some Bubble Bats that tried to fight him, but they were easily crushed by his helmet. Then, he ran out of light. Mega Man thought it wasn't too bad, until he crashed into a wall. The force of the hit knocked the wind out of him. He sat on the cave floor, in the dark. "Just great. How am I going to get out of here?" Mega Man asked himself. Then a great idea struck him. He felt around on his X Buster and found the button for the Fire Knives. He aimed into the dark and fired. The knives struck hard wall, but their flames lit up the dark tunnel of cave. Mega Man fired into a dark area. The sight he saw took his breath away, once again. There were tons of openings to other tunnels, and he had no idea which one was right. That's when the rumbling started. The tunnel Mega Man was in was about to cave in!
Mega Man jumped into the huge chamber with all the tunnels just as the area he had been standing was covered with boulders and rocks. Mega Man's worst fear had come true. He was trapped underground. "Just great. Can things get any worse?" sighed Mega Man, depressed at his situation. "Guess what you loser, it just got worse!" yelled a deafening voice. Then a huge robot jumped from the ceiling and landed next in front of Mega Man. The force of the huge robot's landing knocked Mega Man off balance and he fell to the ground. Mega Man quickly jumped back to his feet, and faced Quaker Man. Mega Man's helmet quickly fed him the stats on Quaker Man, and it became all to clear to him that he was no match for the huge robot. "I see that you have a new helmet. Won't matter. I can still tell what you're doing. You should listen to what those stat sheets are telling ya. You know you can't win," growled Quaker Man. "That may be true, Quaker man, but this little blue guy has pulled himself out of tougher situations. The doc told us to take no chances," said a mysterious voice from the shadows. Then, Mega Man saw who the voice belonged to. It was Shocker Man, the odd robot Mega Man has seen carried out in the video feed from the black box.
The sinister robot sneered at Mega Man. "Why don't we make this sporting. We'll give the little guy a head start into one of these tunnels, and I'll chase him down. If he should pick the wrong tunnel, which he will, he'll find himself right back here, where you will be waiting to grab him and crush him," stated Shocker Man. "Sounds fun, but he'll see me coming a mile away in here," said Quaker Man. "Oh, the lighting problem will be solved," hissed Shocker Man. He pointed his arm cannon at the fire knives in the chamber and fired. The electric blast knocked out the flames. The chamber was plunged into darkness. The only light came from Shocker Man, who had his arm cannon already charged.
"Now Mega Man, I'm going to fire this at the ceiling and the chamber will be lit temporarily. Use those few moments to choose your path. Once the light is gone, the chase begins. Now, ready, set, GO!" yelled Shocker Man and he shot the electric beam at the ceiling. The chamber was instantly lit and Mega Man dashed into the nearest tunnel. He ran for his life. Then the lights went out, again. Mega Man ran steadily alone in the dark, before he heard footsteps catching up with him from behind. "You're much too slow, you won't last long. Such a pity," said Shocker Man. Mega Man picked up speed, and ran into a wall. He quickly pushed off the wall, and followed it. A few feet behind him, and Electric Blast hit the wall he ran into. Mega Man ran, and soon found himself back in the chamber. He instantly froze. Then a huge fist knocked him clear across the chamber, and into another tunnel. Mega Man got back on his feet and ran down the new tunnel. Once again, Shocker Man was right on his heels. This time, Mega Man anticipated the sharp turn, and was able to take it easily. He heard Shocker Man curse. The evil robot noticed his mistake of allowing Mega Man a fighting chance. "Quaker Man, stop him at all costs!" yelled the evil robot. Mega Man, however had not intentions of returning to the chamber. He activated the hover option on his boots and did a midair flip, and planted and two footed kick in Shocker Man's back, knocking him into the dark tunnel. "Wait, no! Stop you fool! I'm not.......," Shocker man tried to say, but was cut off when he was struck in the chest with the Earthquake Jack. Shocker Man was instantly killed, and his ruined body flew into the tunnel where Mega Man had been waiting. Mega Man touched the arm cannon, and assimilated the Electric Blast weapon. He activated his night vision visor on his helmet and looked into the chamber, and easily located Quaker Man. Then he charged up his weapon. "Uh, Shocker Man? Is that you? You don't need to charge up, I killed the twerp," said Quaker Man, obviously confused. The glow from Mega Man's arm cannon soon lit up the chamber enough for Quaker Man to see his mistake. He had killed his own partner, and had given Mega Man the means to destroy him. That's when Mega Man let loss a charged up Electric Blast attack. The charged up beam of electricity raced through tunnel, into the chamber, and struck Quaker Man in the chest. The blast shorted out many of Quaker Man's circuits. He lost his balance and fell on his back, unable to stand. Electricity ran up and down his body.
His emergency battery instantly brought back his vision, and with his night vision, he saw Mega Man's X Buster pointed right at his head. "Please Mega Man, don't do it! If you want my weapon, take it! I can't fight back in this condition. Please, give me mercy," begged the damaged robot. "I think not. Soon, your internal repairs will take care of the major damage, and Wily will only equip you with another Earthquake Jack. It's best I finish you now and get you outta my hair," replied Mega Man. He charged up the Electric Blast, and let it loose on the huge robot's head. The electric current instantly fried all of his main sensors, and traveled down to his power core. Mega Man ran and ducked just as huge explosion that shook the chamber was let loose. When the dust cleared, Mega Man could see light in the chamber. The force of the explosion had broken up a hole in the ceiling. He walked to the arm of the giant robot that contained the Earthquake Jack, and assimilated the weapon. He then wall kicked his way up the opening in the ceiling and was soon on top of the cave.
He could see miles of tunnel he would of had to navigate had he stayed in the tunnel. He jumped high, and activated the hover ability in his boots. He could see the next town, and what he saw chilled his blood. On top of a huge hill, stood a skull shaped castle. He was soon going to face Wily himself.
Well, guys, I hope you enjoy my newest installation. There will be a new one released soon. Later dudes!
