Chapter 13 - Condition Green
"Give us max speed, Proto," said Anthony, as the two sped toward Neo-Venice.
"Will do!" said Protoman, accelerating the hoverjet to maximum.
"Let's hope we get there in time."
"We will, stay positive Anthony! By the way, I'll be waiting at the Mobius portal when you
open it."
"Why? I was told you usually stay aloof!"
"Not this time..." said Protoman, starting to sound a little dark. "This time, I find
Robotnik's evil too sickening to stay in the background!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At Neo-Venice, Megaman, Rush, Bass, and Treble found themselves paralyzed by Darkman's weapon,
and found themselves being taunted by a grinning Dr. Wily.
"So, Megaman, it seems you found this interesting treasure trove. I suppose you wonder why I
find this substance so interesting."
"Yeah, spill it, Doc," Bass said, defiantly.
"Quiet, traitor! My talk is with Blue Boy here," Wily said, then turned back to Megaman. "As
it so happens, this substance can be altered to affect metals as well as organics, a perfect
way to rid myself of you meddlesome heroes. In fact, I have a vial full of the catalyst needed
to make the necessary transformation. Woodman, bring me the protophyl sample!"
Woodman walked toward Wily with the bottle of protophyl, only to be hit by a fiery blast from
the sky. He fell to the ground a heap of gears and crude with the bottle reduced to glass
shards.
Wily was shocked by what happened, and looked towards where the blast came from.
"Blast it, it's Protoman!" He then took a closer look at who was in the hoverjet with him.
"Huh? Who is THAT?!?"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Nice shot, Anthony!" said Protoman. "What is that power called?"
"Pyrokinesis. I use the radiant heat from my body and the surrounding area and focus it
psionically into a fireball. I can also create ice and electricity the same way. Now, let's
see what more damage we can do to Wily's bots, as well as field test my new armor! Armor,
ACTIVATE!"
The armor expanded to surround Anthony's body and resembled high tech red plate mail complete
with a helmet. Anthony activated his retro rockets and headed towards the battle with his
lightsaber activated.
"Meet you at the bottom, Proto!"
"Will be right behind you, Anthony," said Protoman, firing several shots toward Wily's mechs.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"So, it seems Dr. Light has a new robot at his disposal," said Wily, not realizing Anthony was
human. He then turned toward his mech army. "All robots, open fire!"
The mechs began firing toward the pair, only to have several of the shots deflected by
Anthony's lightsaber without hitting anything. Anthony then landed and started to swing
cutting blows against the mechs, leaving them a pile of spare parts, sparking wires, and
bleeding oil.
Darkman readied his weapon to try to freeze Anthony, but had his weapon arm blasted by Protoman
as he landed.
"Forget about me, Darkman?" said Protoman. "Don't worry, you won't remember anything after
this!"
Protoman fired several shots towards Darkman, but Plantman raised his shields to protect them
both. Anthony, after finishing with several of the mechs, fired his grappler towards Plantman
and managed to hit his chest and drag him away from Darkman. With the shields gone from
Darkman, Protoman ran in and fired a couple shots at close range, rendering Darkman a scrap
heap.
Anthony was just as successful with Plantman. Anthony managed to cut through Plantman's
shields with his lightsaber and do the same with Plantman's hide. He and Protoman then
finished off the rest of Wily's mechs before turning their attention towards Wily.
Wily had other ideas. Taking the vial of catalyst with him, he ran towards the protophyl
spring.
Anthony was surprised. "What is he doing? Doesn't he realize what that stuff does to
organics?"
"I don't think he cares, Anthony. I'll try to free the others while you try and stop him."
Anthony nodded and ran towards Wily. Aiming his grappler arm, he tried to grab Wily in such a
way so as not to hurt him too seriously. Unfortunately, Wily ducked towards the spring with a
bottle in order to get the protophyl.
But ended up diving into the spring.
"WILY!" Anthony fired his rockets towards the spring and pulled Wily out of the spring,
remaining protected by his armor. Wily was not as lucky, as the first stages of transformation
began to emerge.
"NOOOO!!!!!" Wily then turned towards Anthony. "HELP ME, PLEASE!!!!"
Anthony wondered if his psionics could help. He found a healing technique called 'Purge' in
his subconscious and used it's strongest form on Wily. Within seconds, Wily's skin turned back
to normal.
Wily breathed a sigh of relief, then turned back toward Anthony. "Thank you, but how...?"
"I tell you in a minute, but first..."
Anthony then used his paralytic psi power to freeze Wily in place, and then said, "Don't take
that personally." Anthony then removed the vial of catalyst from Wily's pocket.
"Give us max speed, Proto," said Anthony, as the two sped toward Neo-Venice.
"Will do!" said Protoman, accelerating the hoverjet to maximum.
"Let's hope we get there in time."
"We will, stay positive Anthony! By the way, I'll be waiting at the Mobius portal when you
