Jazzerman here, I do not own any of these characters, they are owned by their respected companies, blah, blah, blah. You've heard this sht before.
But I do own this story.
A Wily tale, 6 Years later.
Part 9
"So let me get this straight..." Dr. Light said, crossing his arms thoughtfully. "After you ran off, you broke your grandfather out of jail, and after he disappeared you moved into Skull castle, remade the Time Skipper into a device that could travel to another world. Where you're from right miss?"
Ali-Su nodded.
Dr. Light continued from his seat. "And there you helped overthrow an evil dictator who turned the inhabitants into will less robotic servants."
Jonny nodded. Jonny then looked around the lab and smiled, very little had changed. It was still as orderly and neat as it had been all those years ago. There were some new machines here and there, but otherwise Dr. Light had done no remodeling.
Dr. Light turned to Ali-Su and stroked his cottony beard. "I must admit I'm surprised to see that there are humans on other worlds miss."
Ali-Su sighed, she hoped Dr. Light would take this well. "I'm not, this is a hologram disguise my husband came up with so I could come here and not draw attention."
Dr. Light smiled. "I'll have to see what you really like sometime." Although Dr. Light's curiosity was peaked, he didn't want to push the young lady to do anything she did not want to do. Besides if she had been married to Jonny for as long as they said, she had to be either a very patient or very understanding woman.
"So what have you been up to these past few years Doctor?" Jonny asked.
"I've been working on my greatest work yet. I haven't given him a name yet, but I know he will be able to do great things for humanity." Dr. Light showed Jonny a highly detailed schematic of what he was building, from the look on Jonny's face he was more than impressed.
"Thomas," Again Jonny used Dr. Light's first name. "As always your work as a robotics engineer is more that of an artist than a scientist."
Dr. Light laughed. "Thank you my boy, you're too kind."
"Jonny!" A blue blur came out of the hallway and just about knocked Jonny over. The small form that was hugging the grandson of Dr. Wily was about the same size as Roll, wore blue armor, and was seemingly ecstatic to see him.
"How are you?" Mega man asked, releasing Jonny from his deceptively powerful grip.
Jonny held back a wince of pain, he didn't want to have the little guy worry about him. Of course that didn't keep Mega man from noticing that, oh say... his arm was missing.
Jonny sneered, feeling a slight sting in his eyes at the memory of his fight with his grandfather's ultimate creation. "Let's just say my dear beloved grandfather isn't as dead as we thought he was."
Mega man seemed somewhat relived for a second, he had never forgiven himself for not getting Dr. Wily out of Skull Fortress before it was destroyed, to learn that Dr. Wily had survived was a blessing to his conscience. However after this feeling of relief dissipated he felt sorry for what had happened to one of his oldest friends.
Dr. Light smiled as he stroked his beard. He was glad to see Mega man and Jonny getting along after all this time and all that's happened. "Mega man, Jonny and miss..."
"Ali-Su. MRS. Ali-Su Wily thank you." Ali-Su said firmly, crossing her arms.
'Feisty young thing. But I guess she'd have to be to keep him in line...' Dr. Light thought as he straightened his coat before continuing. "Mrs. Wily had a run in with that same robot that attacked Proto man."
Mega man frowned, he had been hoping to push that knowledge aside for a while...
"Proto man?" Ali-Su said inquisitively. "I don't believe you told me about him Jonny."
Dr. Light smiled. "It's no wonder, Jonny never met him while he stayed with us. Proto man was the first robot that was made. Sadly he was also the only robot that Dr. Wily and I had the pleasure of making together."
This had gotten Jonny's attention. Jonny couldn't pass up a chance to see the prototype... "Where is he Doctor?"
"He's in here." Dr. Light opened one of the doors and turned the lights on.
Jonny gasped as he laid eyes on the broken form of the prototype robot. Proto man was in terrible shape. His metal body was full of cracks and dents, his polished visor was cracked and broken, his helmet had small holes in it where tufts of black hair could be seen coming through them. His left arm was bending the wrong way, his buster was shattered, and both of his legs where broken into bits. Jonny had NEVER seen a robot in such miserable shape.
"How are you feeling Brother?" Mega man asked, walking over to the critically damaged robot that lay on the table.
Proto man looked over at this brother, one of his piercing blue eyes could be seen through his visor, looking straight at Mega man. "I've felt better..." He said stoically. A slight amount of irritation shone through the visor.
"At least now you'll hold still so I can finally work on that faulty energy generator of yours now..." Dr. Light said, before laying a hand on his eldest 'son's head. "Don't worry Blues, I'll have you fixed soon."
Proto man snorted. "I never liked being called 'Blues' doc..."
Dr. Light laughed. "Okay, okay Proto man, just save your energy."
Ali-Su smiled. She could see why Jonny would've liked living with this old man so much. He was warm, gentle, caring, and from what Jonny had told her he was a very brilliant man. "May I ask why Mega man calls Proto man his brother? I don't under stand..."
"Not at all." Dr. Light said. "You see, I created Mega man using the same plans that created Proto man as a template. Of course as you can tell I made some modifications, but they do have the same basic programming and architecture."
"So are you here to stay?" Roll asked, she had been hiding around the corner listening to everything.
Mega man looked up at Jonny, the idea that his old friend coming home to stay with him again put a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
Jonny sighed he hated to disappoint him, but he couldn't stay here while people where suffering. "Mega man, I'd like you to come back with me and fight Zero, the robot that hurt both me and Proto man." Jonny shifted, his shoulder was beginning to bother him somewhat, having nothing in it was a very odd experience indeed. "My grandpa brought his most powerful robots, including King, and he's terrorizing the people there just like he did here. I really need your help on this Mega..."
Mega man stared at Jonny for a few seconds, as if he was having a hard decision to make, but his stern face quickly faded into a warm, enthusiastic smile. "Just try and stop me."
"Thanks Mega. This means a lot to me..." Jonny shook the smaller robot's hand, then turned to Dr. Light who was looking over the arm that Jonny had brought with him. "Dr. Light, I'm going to have to ask you a favor."
Astro man hung in the air, his systems were getting over heated from the non-stop attacks he was making on the Elite masters, but he kept up his barrage nonetheless. Occasionally Ballade would take a shot at him with his Ballade cracker attack, but each time Skull man could counter it before it could contact with Astro man with a well aimed Cyber skull.
But neither Dr. Wily nor the ones he was attempting to destroy had been idle. While Dr. Wily had landed his one man ship and was repairing the circuits that Remington had damaged, more and more Robot masters had joined the three that were already there. In all, Knight man, Tengu Man, Metal Man, Magnet Man, Pharaoh Man, Turbo Man, Search Man, and Burner Man where there to aid their cousins in fighting off these supposedly superior models.
Dr. Wily let out a laugh as he closed Zero's casing, "All done my robots, now is the time to attack!" Dr. Wily looked down at Zero, he needed a few minutes for his systems to reboot, but once Zero came back online, victory would be assured.
The Elite masters wore mixed expressions. They REALLY didn't like Zero, but on the other hand they would love to see these lesser models squirm and beg for mercy.
Sonic took a deep sigh as he sat down next to Remington in the hotel lobby. "Everyone's off the island Knuckles, everyone's heading for Mobotropolis for the time being."
"What about Jonny and Ali-Su's children?" Remington asked, noticing the children where no where to be seen.
"Jack and Alison are in the same plane as Lara-Su, Riki-Le, Manic, and Sonia." Sally said. "All of them are headed back to the palace to be under guard with the other high ranking officials of the island."
Knuckles sighed. "I'm sorry to have to impose on you like this Sally."
Sally shook her head and gave the Guardian a smile. "It's okay, it's not like we expected this to happen."
"You gotta admit, Jonny's got one whacko for a grandfather. I'm beginning to understand why the people on his world..." Sonic tried to think of a less distasteful word than 'hate'. "Fear his family. Jonny IS a brilliant scientist and so is grandfather."
"I'm just glad none of his insanity rubbed off on Jonny." Sally said crossing her arms, momentarily wishing Nicole was still a hand held computer in her pocket. She missed her old friend, and could've used her advice right now. "I'll be even more glad when he gets back with help."
One of Remington's officers ran up and saluted his commanding officer before delivering his urgent message. "Sir, the Robot master known as Astro man has run out of power. The Robot masters are now engaging the enemy."
