Sorry for not updating sooner. I'm sorry that this chapter is so short and bleak, but I couldn't think of anyway to juicen it up. (To borrow the colloquialism) Thanks for the reviews! I hope you like this story as much as the first!
Needless to say, nowbody took the news of Bass's death lightly. Dr. Light was the least shocked of anyone, but he still felt terrible. His old face seemed to grow older with his saddened features. Roll didn't faint, but cried out her grief in the most pitiful way. Rush whined and scratched at Megaman's leg. Megaman said "I knew he might be killed."
He walked over to Roll and gave her a comforting hug. "Oh, Megaman... he's gone." she sobbed. Megaman was barely containing himself either. Roll left and went to her room. "I need to lie down..." she said. Megaman got down and Rush whined and licked his face. "Thanks boy." he said and patted Rush on the head.
"It was almost inevitable Megaman." said Dr. Light "I'm afraid we've lost Bass almost as quickly as we got him. Zero's saber could slash anything to bits... I wish Bass-"
Then he remembered "Doctor, if we got all of Bass's parts back, could we revive him?" Dr. Light nodded "It's very possible, but Zero probably sliced him into bite-size bits." Megaman got up shook his head "No, he didn't! He scattered his parts in different places!"
Dr. Light's face brightened "Really? Where?" Megaman told him what Zero told him. Dr. Light quickly punched in the coordinates. On the screen appeared three places. "Megaman, are you sure these are the places where his parts are?" he asked. "I'm certain of it." confirmed Megaman. Dr. Light typed a command into the computer. There were three big red dots on the screen.
"I've scanned all these areas, the red dots mark the places where they might be." he said. "If I'm not mistaken, he's sent robot masters there. I would suggest the volcano first. There's no telling when it will erupt."
Megaman nodded "O.K. doc," he almost teleported out, but Dr. Light stopped him. "Wait!" he said. "I'll need you to take along a detector so you can find his parts. But I'll need to remove your magnetic armor, it won't work with it on." Megaman suddenly felt nervous "How long will that take?" he wanted to get going as fast as possible. "Only about fifteen minutes."
Megaman got into his capsule and got his armor removed. "I wish I could make you a new weapon." said Dr. Light. Megaman nodded "Wait! I have Zero's saber and buster!" Dr. Light looked at the weapons. "Before you leave, let's do this..." he opened Megaman's arm and installed the saber and buster into his own Mega buster. "You can interchange between two shots and the saber, be careful, these are extremely lethal weapons."
Megaman teleported out and Dr. Light went to Roll's bedroom. She was lying in her bed face down and crying softly. Dr. Light sat down on the left side of her bed. He patted her on the back "Roll, are you O.K.?" she shook her head. Dr. Light tried to sound encouraging "Megaman has gone to get Bass's parts, if he can get them, we might be able to revive him."
Roll looked up. Her face was pale and she was exhausted from crying. "Are you sure?" Dr. Light nodded "I'm very sure." Roll lay her head on her side "I hope he does. Until he does, I don't know how I'll hold up." Dr. Light looked annoyed "Stop acting so ridiculous." he said "Megaman wouldn't like you to be despairing like this would he? Roll?" She had fallen asleep.
Dr. Light got up. "Oh well," he said "I do hope he'll get the parts back."
