Dr. Wily loses it, Chapter 5

"Heated debate"

By MEGAMANX411

"OK, ok" Mega Man reasoned as he was slowly pacing back and forth. "I've defeated three robots thus far. Leaving four more. I wonder what crazy pieces of junk the old man will send after me next? I can't even imagine what the heck he's thinking of. I don't know, maybe I'll check out a video game or something." Mega Man shrugged, and then made his way to the nearest video game retail store. This particular store also carried anime, comics, cards, etc.

Mega Man walked over to the shelf, and started looking at video games. He always had a tough time choosing, because he liked playing multiplayer games with Roll, but he always liked a good single-player adventure game. At that point, a figure approached behind Mega Man, breathing heavily. The figure was standing awkwardly close to Mega Man, and started heaving breaths as if he had asthma or something.

"Hey," Mega Man began. "You mind giving me some space please?" The figure drew back, and when Mega Man turned around, he saw that it was a robot. "I should've known...let me guess, Rip-off-of-Comic-Book-Guy-from-the-Simpsons Man? Annoying Man? Person-who-stands too close to you Man?" Mega Man questioned as he turned back around.

"I'm..." the robot began. "It doesn't matter!" Mega Man interrupted. "The point is, your another one of Dr. Wily's stupid robots, I'll defeat you, then the other robots, then Dr. Wily, and then everbody's happy! Got it?" "I see you're interesting in video games," the robot continued.

Mega Man shrugged. "Yeah. That's why I was in here," he said, sounding a little sarcastic. "Why don't we settle this in a civilized manner?" the robot asked. "What are you talking about?" Mega Man responded. "We have a heated fanboy argument on video games, of course!" the robot announced with a grin.

Mega Man shook his head. "You're not serious are you?" "Of course I am!" the robot persisted. "I am Fanboy Man!" Mega Man's jaw was gaping open. "Do you mind telling me where Dr. Wily buys his drugs first? I mean, how else would he have come up with this?"

The robot started his end of the debate. "Playstation 2 is the best system ever made in the history of video games!" Mega Man shook his head. "This is ridiculous. Why should I argue with you?" he said in a slightly arrogant tone. "What?" Fanboy Man responded. "You don't think you can beat me?"

"Oh alright..." Mega Man muttered. "I don't agree that PS2 is the best system ever, because that idea is impossible. Having the most enjoyable games is largely based on opinion, and thus, each individual gamer will have his/her own concept of what system has the best games. This denotes that there can be no omnipotent console in fact, but in opinion of the individual. There, you happy?" Fanboy Man frowned angrily. "So, it's still the best!"

Mega Man shook his head. "Y-you're kidding right? I mean, you can't be that stubborn." Fanboy Man persisted. "I think Xbox is the worst system ever made! It has nothing good on it!" Mega Man shook his head once again. "OK, again, quality of the games is up to the individual gamer, thus meaning that the quality of the console is debatable in that sense. As far as console specifics go, Microsoft's Xbox is the most powerful of the three consoles in that respect. Now you happy?"

Fanboy Man persisted. "Oh come on!" Mega Man shouted. "I beat you fair-and-square! How can you still disagree?" Mega Man shook his head. "Fine, fine. Screw this. I'm just going to shoot you." Mega Man raised his buster, and shot the annoying, sniveling robot. As it keeled over, every other bystander in the store cheered in delight.

Mega Man walked back to the counter, and laid a handful of games down. "I'll buy these," he said. He then walked out the door, ready for Wily's next robot. After he gave the beatdown in Soul Calibur II that is.

Mega Man went back home, and placed some video games in his consoles, and Roll came over and sat down on the couch. Proto Man was in there too. "What games you get Mega?" Roll asked cheerily. "Let's see..." Mega Man thought aloud. Dr. Light then came into the room. "Mega Man!" he shouted. "What the heck are you doing here Mega Man? You're supposed to be fighting Wily's robots!"

Mega Man stood up slowly. "Do I have to?" he asked. Dr. Light looked stunned. "Yes. Yes you do. Why even ask?" "These robots are REALLY weak. Come on. Anyone can beat them. I mean, where are the cops? They could handle this easily without me." Dr. Light started rubbing the back of his head. "Well, the thing about that is..."

Mega Man didn't look amused at all. "You're saying the cops all retired, aren't you?" Dr. Light shook his head meekly. "Well, they didn't need to do anything, so..." Mega Man gritted his teeth. "Alright, I'm going, I'm going!"

Mega Man rushed back out the door, ready to face the next one of Wily's minions, who would undoubtedly be even more ill thought out than the previous one.
