Chapter 3
Mega man emerged in a mass of screaming people. They were all fleeing from a large form in the middle of the Town Square. As Mega man got closer, it was a robot master. One Mega man hadn't seen before.
"Who are you supposed to be?" Mega man asked, his arm cannon already charging up.
"Your executioner." The robot said back. It was at least 2 ½ times the size of Mega man and its fists were huge. Mega man had to leap backwards as the huge robot drove its fist into the spot Mega man had just been standing.
"Funny, Wily has had many a robot named that, but they all seem to end up in the scrap heap." Mega man said, releasing his charged up shot. The huge robot raised a fist and reflected the shot. Mega man gasped.
"My plasma doesn't work? Oh great." Mega man lunged back again as the hulking machine leaped into the air and tried to land on him.
"You been taking Guts man lessons?"
"Hold still you little runt!" the robot said, jumping again. Mega man dodged and saw his brother coming up from behind. He had forgotten Break man was there. The red robot jumped and landed on the enemy's back. He started pumping the thing full of plasma, and since the fists couldn't block the shots, each shot hit square and did the damage. The hulking robot violently started thrashing, trying to get the annoying pest off of its back. The robot suddenly stopped and Mega man thought they had won. But instead the hulking robot released a massive electric charge. Mega man and Break man took the full hit, unable to dodge since it was an area attack. But it had drained the enemy and the brothers charged up and released powered up shots. The master took both hits in the chest and back and smoke started to come from it. It retreated into a forest with the two brothers close behind.
"It's not like one of Wily's bots to run from a fight. Even if they know they'll lose." Mega man said as they ran.
"Maybe he's using a new tactic. Like a trap." Break man called back.
"That's hardly new. It's almost expected." Mega man yelled as he dodged a branch. An electric spark flew by him and he barely dodged. "This guys getting annoying. We gotta finish him before he hurts somebody."
"Especially us." Break man said with a grin. Mega man returned the grin and sent off a ball of plasma. It smacked harmlessly into a tree as the robot master dodged. "Man that guys too agile for his size." They trailed him to a clearing where the huge robot had disappeared. They did, however, see a warp. A green warp.
"What the? I thought all warps were blue. Or at least rainbow like the dimension warps. What's with this one?" Break man asked.
"Beats me, but I won't let that thing get away." Mega man said as he dove through.
"Mega man wait! Don't.. oh great." Break man called too late. A shadowy figure sat in the bushes.
"Go on, go through. Follow him in. Do it!" said the figure. But it wasn't to be. Break man, though usually the adventurous one, didn't trust that warp. He instead transported back to Dr. Light's lab with a streak of red light to get advice from his creator.
"No no no… so close. I almost had them both. Oh well at least I finally got rid of that pest." Said the figure stepping out into the open. "Though I would have liked a closer look at that robot that came through. But it did my job for me. Now Megaland will fall." The gray bearded man said to himself, laughing. "Dr. Wily will reign supreme! Oh I do love my lil time warp." He said as the green warp closed and Dr. Wily jumped into his flying saucer.
Chapter 4
Break man appeared in the middle of Dr. Light's lab, but could see no one around. He went to the scanner and it showed Dr. Light just outside the lab, along with Roll. He went through the gate to see them bending over some flowers that had grown near the south wall of the lab.
"Dr. Light. Are you busy?" The red clad robot asked as he walked over to the two.
"Oh Break man, you're back. I take it you were victorious. And no, I'm not busy." the scientists said while wiping off his hands and standing up.
"Maybe. It's Mega man. He…" Before he could finish, Dr. Light had grabbed Break man's shoulders.
"What's wrong with Mega man? What did Wily do? I knew that robot could be trouble." He said, his face full of fear. Exhaustion was in his eyes and Break man could tell he had been working on something for too long. The fear was influenced by his weariness.
"Wily? We didn't see him. But there was a new robot master. But that's not why I'm here. We were fighting the robot when it took off and went through a green warp. Mega man went through, but for some reason, I didn't follow. Call it a premonition or something, but it didn't seem right." Break man said, trying to calm the scientist down.
"Green? Did you say a Green warp?" The scientist said, a look of confusion on his face.
"Yeah. It was weird. Mega man didn't even think about it, he just jumped through like something was drawing him to the other side." Break man said as the two walked inside. Roll followed a short while later.
"Green… I doubt it's possible the color of the warps can be changed by normal means. After all there is still little we know about them. Maybe the others have something on this." Dr. Light went to work on his computer and in a short moment, Dr. Cossack, an orange haired scientists, and the Harts, friends of Dr. Light and Mega man, appeared on the monitor. He told them what Break man had told him, and the four scientists started their technical babble. Break man simply went and leaned against the wall, only half-listening to the conversation.
"Probably something with what Wily has been up to. It does go with the robot master theory." Dr. Cossack said. Dr. Light nodded and after a short discussion, Dr. Light closed the link. He turned to Break man and had a grim expression on his face.
"Fracturing time and space… If Wily has figured out how to bridge such a gap, we could be in trouble. Break man, I'd like you to go back to the place you were at. See if you can find out what Wily is up to. Any hints we can get would be a great help." Break man nodded and after giving Dr. Light coordinates and the warp was set, Break man was back near where he'd left Mega man. But when the red robot looked around, he couldn't find anything that would be of use to solving the green warp. And what was worse, the warp was gone.
