Megaman and Kid Icarus: The Invasion of Angel Land
Part 2 (The New Threat and the New Heroes)
Meet the future ruler of Angel Land: Dr. Wily!
An archway collapsed. And underneath it was the remains of a robot mantis, with arrows stuck in the head, which was a couple of feet from the bottom of the crushed wreck. The mantis robot had tried using pieces of column as a weapon, as well as bashing the ceiling when trying to jump forward. That and Pit's arrows led to the demise of the insectoid robot. Pit rushed over the debris, and entered the Chamber of Sacred Power.
It was brighter than usual, but only because there were glassless windows and skylights were there were not before. This room was redecorated…but not by choice.
And there was a small group of Angel Joes. Some of who were loading the three sacred treasures into a crate. A crate being held by a sturdy chain from a flying saucer.
Palutena entered the room.
"STOP! I order you to drop the treasures and leave", yelled Palutena.
The top of the UFO lifted off a few feet, inside was Dr.Wily, who stared at Palutena, and twitched his eyebrows
"Allow me to introduce myself. I am Dr.Wily. I shall use your "treasures" to create the ultimate weapon, and take over both the Earth and your Angel Land. I'm sorry, but this means that I'll be taking your place! HEHEHEHE!"
"I am Goddess Palutena, Queen of Angel Land, abode of peace and love. I order you to pull your army out of our place of harmony!"
"You? And what army? Your pathetic winged soldiers? They may be better than the people of Earth, but they are no match for my mighty robotic army. And, I'd like to add that I've managed to awaken and control the ancient demon Gigaretheusos, who controls many lesser monsters. So I now control two armies as if they were one. And what have you, your celestial majesty?" he added with a hint of sarcasm "That pathetic soldier there?" he pointed at Pit. Pit was visibly upset.
"You leave me no choice" Palutena continued. She held up her hands, and a ball of green energy formed between them.
"Harmonized Palutena Sphere".
A huge blast of energy lept from her hands and raced through the sky. It suddenly turned upwards and slammed into Wily's saucer. It shook a little, but there was no visible damage.
"If you're trying to make me airsick, you've nearly succeeded" Wily sneered "But those parlor tricks are no good against my army. But that winged weakling next to you could not even shake me. HEHEHE I think I'll use his wings to make a couple of feathered pillows".
Pit was furious.
"I am Pit, Leader of the Icarus Army, and defender of Palutena and Angel Land. I'm a soldier for peace and harmony, and your kind are not welcome here". Pit ran towards the crate. Two Angel Joes aimed at Pit, but they fired when he was between them, and they ended up destroying each other. He then jumped onto the crate. Lasers and plasma blasts were flying by him, but no one dared shoot at the crate, the saucer, or the chain.
Pit climbed the chain, but Wily had other plans.
The chain and the saucer were glowing a bright blue, and sparks flew everywhere. Pit fell and hit the floor with a thud.
"Shocking enough for you?" Wily snickered. "I'd love to stay and watch your pathetic attempts to stop me, but I have unbelievable power to wield, and places to conquer, and armies to command. Well, you get your wish, Palutena. We are all leaving your palace. But I need the treasures I'm afraid. See you later! HEHEHE".
The Angel Joes and the saucer departed.
"Pit, are you alright?" asked Palutena.
"I think so" replied Pit, as he slowly got up. He had a couple of bruises on his legs, and the shock had left a couple of burn marks on him, but most of that damage was superficial and hidden beneath the white robe he was wearing. Besides, he had taken damage that was far worse than touching an electrified tow cable. And he wasn't about to let anyone just take the Sacred Treasures. "I must stop Dr.Wily somehow" he continued.
Just then a screech was heard, and Pit and Palutena turned to see a giant snake like creature rush by one of the new "windows".
"Be careful, Pit. You have my blessing!" Palutena told Pit.
With that, Pit left the room.
Megaman meets Pit……Megaman Vs. Pit?
Megaman landed in a garden on one of the sides of the massive "floating landmass" that the Palace was on. Rush barked, Megaman got off him, and then he teleported out.
As he ran forward, the palace became bigger, and brighter….and more destroyed. Obviously the handiwork of Wily's robots, thought Megaman.
Just then a couple of Metalls attacks him. But he quickly destroyed them.
Most of the Angel Joes and a few Bubble Droids were leaving the palace.
"DRAT! Whatever Wily wanted, he must have gotten", thought Megaman.
He rushed, blasting more Metalls on the way, and was soon on the raised platform that most of the palace was on. But he was stopped by a roar. In front of him was a giant snake like creature, with claws along the length of its body, a single eye, and many sharp jagged teeth. It was a giant creature called Wyrmser. And somehow, it knew that Megaman was not welcome. It sprayed acid from its mouth, but Megaman jumped out of the way. He then blasted the creature with a fully charged Mega Buster shot, but it didn't seem to do anything. He then shot it in the head with a few plasma shots, and it roared in pain, and some blood of some sort sprayed out. Megaman avoided another acid blast, hid behind a column out of its view, and then used his communicator.
"Light, I'm up against a giant monster. But its alive. Its not one of Wily's robots. What do I do?"
"Megaman, there are quite a few lifeform readings among all the detected robots. It seems that Wily is either experimenting with artificial lifeforms, or somehow is controling natural life here. Either way, if it is dangerous and attacks, you can blast it. I know how you feel about attacking life, Megaman, but this time you have no choice. By the way since the area you are in is clearing, we're moving the mobile lab facility and Auto's ship to your area. I'll contact you later. Light out!"
Megaman emerged from behind the pillar, and with a fully charged blast hit the monster right in its eye. It roared in pain, and started firing spikes at Megaman. At the same time, various snake-like creatures were jumping out of Wyrmser's coils. He blasted them, and then took more blasts at the beast. The monster roared in agony, and some of its skin started peeling off. The thing wriggled, and then fell to the ground.
He ran along the side of the palace, blasting more snakes and metalls, and the occasional Angel Joe. He came to what appeared to be a main entrance. When suddenly…
"STOP RIGHT THERE."
Megaman was confronted by a boy with big white feathered wings. He had brown hair and blue eyes. He was wearing sandals and a white robe, and had laurel leaves by his ears. And he was holding a bow with a terribly sharp arrow aimed at Megaman.
"I am Pit, leader of the Icarus army. I may be young, but I twice saved Angel Land. And I'll send you back to Dr.Wily as junk metal."
"Then I think we're on the same side, Pit" replied Megaman.
"Do you think I'm that ignorant? Your master and his robots stole the Three Sacred Treasures. You are a robot. You are here", continued Pit.
Three Sacred Treasures? Of course…those unique energy signatures Light told me about….those were them, thought Megaman.
"I'm Megaman. And I tell you, I'm not one of Wily's robots. You hear me? I'm on your side"
"I think not" retorted Pit, as he fired an arrow at Megaman.
It was rather powerful, for being a non-energy weapon. It stung Megaman. So he quickly activated his arm cannon and fired at Pit.
Megaman and Pit exchanged fire for a couple of minutes, and then Pit jumped up, and then jumped again while in the air, and, using his wings, he descended slowly, and fired several arrows, one which hit Megaman in the head. He fell onto his knees, but he was not defeated yet. He charged up a MegaBuster shot, and then fired it at Pit. He was knocked backward and onto the floor by the blast. He slowly got up, and reached for his bow,
"At least you are fighting honorably, and not flying away like Dr.Wily. That much I admire. But you will pay for defiling Palutena's palace. Prepare to-"
Pit could not finish the sentence, because there was a sudden flash of light. A shower of stars appeared, and then Palutena appeared, and she held out her arms.
"STOP THE FIGHTING!"
Pit and Megaman looked up.
"Pit, drop bow. And you there", she pointed at Megaman "Who are you? Why are you here? Do you work for Dr.Wily?"
"I…I….I am Megaman. I followed Dr.Wily from Earth."
"Megaman?" Palutena asked "MEGAMAN? I heard of you. I haven't seen that many robots before Wily came here, but there was one who came by here a few months ago. He told me that you fight for justice on the Earth. I didn't meet him for that long. But he was a star traveller, who also fights for the side of good. His name was Duo."
"Duo? Yes. I met him some time ago. As for why I am here, it's to stop Dr.Wily."
"Well" Palutena continued, "Dr.Wily came in and stole the Sacred Treasures. The Wings of Pegasus, the Silver Armor, and the Arrow of Light. They are what allowed Pit to save Angel Land from the Orcos. But in the wrong hands, they could be used for terrible evil."
"I'm sorry I attacked you" said Pit "but I thought you were one of Wily's robots. You know what Wily said to me? He said that he'd make pillows out of my wing feathers. That's so mean."
"Another thing….you have wings?" asked Megaman.
"I do", replied Pit.
"Most people in Angel Land have them," added Palutena "but the usual wings don't usually let them fly. Only hovering short distances and such. But the one who wears the Wings of Pegasus can truly fly. And there are said to be other ways in which one can truly fly with his wings. I know where you come from people are wingless."
"May I ask what your name is?" Megaman asked Palutena.
"Sorry I forgot. I am Goddess Palutena, the Queen of Angel Land. This is the Sky Palace that we are on. Our place is a land of peace and harmony. Or it is most of the time. Pit is still young, but he was a good archer, and he quickly became head of the Icarus Army, my elite guard. He also saved Angel Land from the Medusa and the Orcos. But now Angel Land is under threat from Dr. Wily."
They continued there conversation, blissfully unaware that they were being watched from a distance by two robots, who were neither on Megaman's side, nor on Wily's side. They only trusted each other. They were Bass and Treble.
Light reaches Angel Land as the darkness leaves
A pair of spaceships came flying to the Sky Palace. But this time no alarm bells were rung. And while many winged soldiers and civilians rushed, it had nothing to do with an attack. They rushed to greet the ships. One of the ships was piloted by Auto, Dr. Light's mechanic, and the other one by Light himself. Through Megaman's wrist communicator, Light had spoken to Palutena and arrangements were made to have the Mobile Laboratory, as well as the "Big Eddie", a giant portable building that resembles Flip Top which was Auto's workshop, set up within the Sky Palace. Now the technology was arriving. The Sky Palace was to be the "Base of Operations" of both Pit and of Megaman.
But no sooner had the computers and scanners been set up, when Dr. Light started to panic.
"Megaman and Pit, come quickly!"
They rushed to the main scanner room.
"Dr.Wily's main fortress is still hidden from our sensors, but it looks as though he's sent his forces down to Earth's surface….oops….I mean Angel Land's surface. It's his usual pattern….sending small groups to different places. Each group is headed by one of his Robot Masters."
"Robot Masters?" asked Pit.
"Yes" Replied Light, "They are really advanced robots that have intelligence and even limited reasoning abilities, although they can't think as freely as Megaman. They build there hideouts in various places, and they have unique powers".
"But I can absorb some of their powers, and use them as my own weapons" added Megaman.
"I wish I could do that" remarked Pit.
"Actually, you will be able to", said Palutena, who walked into the room. "Here, put on this amulet. The stones hold my power, but there are also some chips and detectors or something that Light made."
Pit looked at it, and put it on.
Roll walked in.
"Good luck, boys!"
"Thank you, Roll" said Pit, who had been earlier told the names of all of Light's robots.
Megaman and Pit left the palace, and headed out to find the Robot Masters.
