This is my first story and thusly the one you, the reader needs to Review the most. How should I progress the story. See if you can spot all the different parts stolen from the megaman series. Winner gets a cameo of their choice (at the authors discretion, there's only 6 megamen here, too many cooks spoil the broth.)

"You are our only hope..."

A small lump in a light blue bed stirred. He looked blearily around at his surroundings.

Same blue bed, same blue clothes, but that dream had scared the living daylights out of him. He felt the details of his dreams slipping away from his memory, a man in a white suit was telling him something, but he couldn't remember what. "Oh well..." He got up and looked himself in the mirror, got dressed and went down to the HeatMan breakfast bot. "Two eggs and bacon, toast and juice please" he asked the machine. "Voice confirmation: Neb 'Mega' Mann, proceeding with request" it answered in the mechanical way all ServBots made by the Bright & Wily Corp. answered. It opened up a small hatch and sent a plate of eggs and bacon with a side of toast and jam through. Neb shoveled it all into his mouth and washed it down with a glass of water purified by his IceMan ice cube maker and water cleaner. He grabbed a leash from it's hook by the door and his pet Rush came bounding through to where Neb was standing, hearing the small jingle of it's bell. The two walked outside.

Outside, the large town of Eeville was waking up in the early morning rays of sun. He looked across the road to where a small and pretty blonde haired girl was sitting on her front step, braiding her hair. "Roll Maylu... my best friend and the prettiest girl I know" he muttered. He paused for a moment, wondering if she would ever go out with him when Roll finished braiding her hair and looked across the street. "Come here Mega" she said, calling him by his nick name. "I have got the most amazing thing on earth to show you!" Mega ran across the street to where Roll was standing. They both sat down on the step and Roll pulled a small cube out of her pocket.

"It's the latest game for the Virtual Reality Pyramid. It's called 'The Adventures of Rockman: The Beginnings'. It has the most advanced AI ever, you actually feel like you're in the story and it's about this character called Megaman. But he can come in different forms, like a regular person, or a robot or even an .EXE program-"

"Wait!" interrupted Mega.

"This isn't supposed to come out for months. Where did you get a copy? Isn't it supposed to be in testing? And what if you forget that you're in the game and not real life?" he said.

"First of all, you still can't get hurt, or taste or smell, so you won't forget you're in the game. Second, yes it is in testing but this is one of the good copies and third: my Mother works for Clapcom, so she brings home games for me to test." She smiled provocatively, "But since my Virtual Reality Pyramid is...well...broken and at the mechanic's, I was wondering...if we could use yours?"

Mega felt the excitement rising in his stomach. She had said 'we'! Did she mean something by it, or was it just a passing remark? Before his brain could think about it he blurted "Sure!!!"

"That's great, well, how about we go now? I've been waiting all morning to play it!"

"The sun only came up a few..." He looked at her smiling face. Well, it's only a minor detail that the sun came up an hour ago, and who wakes up early on a weekend?

"It's a date!" said Mega, suddenly blushing when he realized what he had said.

"It's a date," Roll confirmed as she slipped her hand into his as they slowly crossed the road.

If only Mega had remembered that his father, Dr. Illuminate Mann had been tinkering with his Virtual Reality Pyramid. Neb's father was a particle physicist with a degree in transdimensional mechanics. When he tinkered with things, they didn't just work; they worked better in most cases. The problem was that they usually did their job with a bang, or an explosion, or some other potent display of power. Their WaveMan microwave was now in custody of the National Electricity Producers, as Dr. Mann had turned it into a fusion generator. The family AirMan air conditioner now worked as a naval submarine.

Roll and Mega walked into the Mann household and to Dr. Mann's laboratory where Neb's Virtual Reality Pyramid was kept because of its size. The area around it was covered in papers filled with calculations and broken parts of things, some were still smoking or sparkling. Roll opened up the triangular hatch on one side and Mega on the other. They slipped into the VR (virtual reality) suits and Mega loaded the game. As they waited, Roll slipped her hand into Mega's.

"I really like you Mega...I was wondering if you-"But she was cut off as the world around the two seemed to warp and fold in around itself. If you had been outside, all you would have seen is the small LED on light blink on and the Virtual Reality Pyramid suddenly disappear in a flash of bright green and blue light. You also might have been able to hear a voice on the edge of hearing, saying "...and so it begins..."
