Dr. Wily loses it, Chapter 7
"Lawsuit"
By MEGAMANX411
Mega Man had just defeated five out of the seven robots headed his way. "By the way, sorry about the thing with Proto Man," Mega Man said humbly. "But he made me promise not to tell. Sorry! You'll just have to figure it out on your own,...man, was it hilarious though! Anyway, onto fighting Wily's robots I guess."
Mega Man just walked passed an electronics store, which had a television playing a newscast in the window. He thought something on it looked fishy, so he peered into the store to see what it was about. It was a trial! And who was being prosecuted surprised Mega Man even more!
The courtroom was filled with spectators, and the jury was all looking at the defendant with hardened eyes. And the aforementioned defendant was Dr. Wily. Mega Man smiled. "Finally! They can lock that nut back up, and this time, I'd recommend putting him in an insane asylum, not a prison!" he said gleefully. Mega Man watched as someone stood up. "That must be the prosecutor," he reasoned.
The prosecutor stood erect, shifting his glasses a little. "Dr. Wily, is it?" he asked arrogantly. "Yeah, that's me!" Dr. Wily responded. Dr. Wily was on edge, shifting in his seat as his eyes twitched. The prosecutor gave a smile, and placed his hand on Dr. Wily's shoulder. "Dr. Wily, did you or did you not create a robot named 'Super Man'?" he asked. Mega Man pulled himself away from the glass. "Super Man?" he asked aloud. "Oh come Wily, not even you could do something like that..." he muttered.
Mega Man pushed his face back against the glass to observe the trial. Dr. Wily nodded. "Yes, I made a robot called Super Man, so what?" he shrugged. Dr. Wily didn't seem to be paying attention at all. He was looking really jittery. The prosecutor blinked heavily, and didn't look very amused. "And you realize how you designed him?" he asked. Dr. Wily nodded again. The prosecutor then took a few steps back, and reached for a projector. "In order for the rest of the court to understand the reasoning of my statement, I have provided slides depicting the alleged robot's appearance," he announced.
The slide came on, and Mega Man shook his head as he watched. Dr. Wily shrugged. "What, what? I don't see what's wrong with this...why are we making a federal case out of it?" he asked as he was raising his eyebrows. Hey, it's a hard habit to break for him. The prosecutor glanced at Wily with a look that just screamed, "You've got to be kidding me", but continued in his calm manner. "Dr. Wily, this robot doesn't remind you of any other popular icon? One who wears a blue uniform, and a red cape? And has an S on his chest?" he asked.
Dr. Wily nodded. "Oh yeah, that Super Man guy. He's cool," he said with a grin. The prosecutor breathed heavily, and looked a little upset. "So you're saying you know you copied the image exactly? And without the consent of the creator?" he asked. "Furthermore," he continued. "You have committed many crimes against the people with your previous rampages. Hey, wait a minute! Why the heck aren't I locking you up right now?" he asked aloud. The people of the court were all stunned by this revelation.
But Mega Man wasn't.
"Why didn't you just lock that guy up from the start, you idiots..." Mega Man muttered under his breath. Dr. Wily shrugged. "I...um...crap!" he shouted. Just then, Dr. Wily pressed a button, and his space ship came crashing down from the ceiling. He got in, did his trademark raising of the eyebrows, and then made off. The people in the court were stunned. "Well, at least we have the robot" Mega Man heard someone say. He slapped his face. "God these people are dumb..." he muttered. "I guess that takes care of that robot though."
Mega Man breathed deeply. "OK," he sighed. "One more robot to go. Then I have to fight Wily. Why can't I go to his stupid castle now anyway?" he asked aloud.
