It was 9:30 and Dr. Wily had ordered Roll to be hung back on the chain and the microwave laser activated. Bass and Treble were recharging in their capsules and was just about to go into sleep mode, when a guard walked by. "Guard," he asked "What's the good doctor up to?" the guard looked at him "He's getting the prisoner tied up again and is about to communicate with Megaman." Bass grew alarmed. if Dr. Wily did destroy Roll, Megaman would surely destroy them both. Of course, he might hand himself over, but then again, he might not! He got out of his capsule and left for the room where Roll was tied.
Bass threw the door open just to see the microwave laser activate. He fire his buster and broke the chain that held Roll up and she fell to the ground. Dr. Wily ran up to him "What on earth are you doing Bass?" he yelled angrily "I'm having enough trouble as it is!" "If you kill Roll, I will kill you!" said Bass with a threatening look.
Roll looked at him confusedly. Dr. Wily looked taken aback "You will, will you?" "Yes. I'm not going to be hunted down by Megaman till he kills me just because you killed Roll. Your life will have no meaning if you go through with this!" Dr. Wily understood and seemed a little afraid at the thought. "I think your right but-" suddenly his face brightened "Of course! that's what I'll do!"
He jumped down from the seat on the laser "I've got a better idea!" he said excitedly. Roll walked over to where Bass was "Why did you do that?" she asked "Never mind!" said Bass sharply Dr. Wily barked another order "Take her this way!" Two sniper joes grabbed her by the arm and led her away after him. "I have another plan..." he thought to himself "I must be a genius!"

It was 9:55 and Dr. Light was getting worried. the upgrades weren't complete yet, and time was running out. He immediately sent a message through to Dr. Wily to talk to him soon. 1 minute... the repairs weren't done! 2 minutes... 3- Yes! the working arms withdrew and the capsule opened. Megaman jumped out "What time is it?" he asked "9:58 quick!" yelled Dr. Light and they both waited anxiously for the screen to turn on. It did and the screen showed the same room with Roll on a chain and Dr. Wily sitting in a chair with the controls to the laser.
Wily looked annoyed "Megaman, it's 10:01." he said Megaman looked at Dr. Light's watch, 9:59. "No it's not! it's just later where you are!" "Sorry," he aimed the laser at Roll and began charging it. "I'm afraid I've wasted too much time waiting." "Dr. Wily!" yelled Megaman desperately "You can take me instead!" "Nope..." said Dr. Wily and before Megaman or Dr. Light could say another word, he pressed the button.
The whole room was bathed in a flashing red color as the laser was fired and Roll was hit dead on. The explosion left pieces of metal flying all over the room and when the laser turned off. There was nothing left but burned remains. Megaman screamed and fell to his knees "No! no!" he yelled in agony. He fell face down to the floor "Roooooooooolllllll!!!" he cried. Dr. Light stood firm, but tears spilled down his old bearded face. "Dr. Wily if I was with you, I'd kill you!!" he shouted waving his fist at the screen.
Dr. Wily laughed "You can yell and scream all you want, but Rush is still alive you know. I might be willing to spare him, but you'd better get here now Megaman!" Megaman lay still on the floor. His whole body trembled with utter hatred toward Dr. Wily, and he would get him, armed or unarmed. He stood up and said "You win Dr. Wily, set the coordinates so I can teleport to your base." satisfied, Dr. Wily punched a few keys on a keyboard and said "Wise choice Megaman. Light, you can expect Rush to arrive soon." Megaman teleported out and Dr. Light turned off the screen.
He walked over to his chair and sat down. "Megaman..." he whispered to himself "Please be careful."
