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 11

Mega man could barely believe what his eyes beheld. The creatures that stood in front of him seemed a lot like various animals back on Earth. Mega man was standing in a very nice hotel lobby, with Rush sniffing just about everything in sight.

Rush however began to growl when he discovered Treble lying down behind the sofa. Treble however was in no mood for games and glared up at the red dog robot and bared his teeth, a low growl like a truck engine escaped his clenched metal teeth. Rush imminently backed off, his ears flat against his head and his tail between his legs.

Jonny chuckled softly and turned to his canine creation. "Be nice Treble. Rush is on our side."

Treble just laid his head down and closed his eyes, ignoring Rush altogether.

Sonic meanwhile stepped up to Mega man and held out his hand, smiling politely. "So you're Mega man? Jonny's told us a lot about you."

Mega man looked at Sonic's hand for a second, then looked the hedgehog in the eye and shook his four fingered hand. "I'm Flattered. And what's your name?"

"I'm Sonic, Sonic the Hedgehog, and that over there is Remington, the chief of police in this city. That's Knuckles and Julie-Su, and that's my wife Sally." Sonic pointed to each Mobian respectfully as he spoke their names.

Mega man smiled and waved his hand and them. "Hi, it's nice to meet you all!"

Sally couldn't help but smile back at the blue robot. He had the sheer infectious joy of an innocent child. Normally Sally never judged people on their first meeting but she would later say she honestly felt a great gentleness coming Mega man.

Jonny decided to get right to the point. "Okay Mega here's who we've got out there: Quint, Enker, Punk, Ballade, King, and that Zero Robot that beat both me and Proto man are out there with my grandpa. We've got some help but they won't last long against Zero."

"Let me guess, our 'help' is the Robot masters?" Mega man asked.

Jonny nodded. "Yeah, about ten of them or so. The rest of them are off the Island doing whatever."

"All the civilians where evacuated to Mobotropolis, so there shouldn't been any innocent bystanders that could get hurt." Sally said.

"Good. I'd hate to see anyone get hurt... Regardless if they aren't human." Mega man said, smiling weakly at the Mobians. He wasn't programmed with anything about Mobians, but he felt that if they were friends of Jonny then they where his friends too. And that was more than enough reason to help them.

"Let's go Mega, we got bots to thrash and little time to do it!" Jonny said, a grin was on his face that Mega had seen many times on Bass's before their fights. "Treble come!"

Treble leapt up from the floor and howled as he converted to jet mode.

"Rush let's jet!" Mega man called over to his companion. Rush barked twice and transformed into his own jet mode.

Both Jonny and Mega man climbed on and flew off. Quick man however sped along the ground under them as a red blur.

"Ready Blue?" Knuckles asked the hedgehog next to him.

"Always Red." Sonic said, giving the Guardian a smirk. "This is going to be a great change from the whole royalty gig."

Both of them knocked fists before taking off after their aerial allies. Sonic a blur of blue light and Knuckles taking to the air and gliding on the island's air currents.

Roll laid in her room, a hundred thoughts going through her mind... Ever since Mega man and Jonny had left she had spent her time trying to figure something out. Finally she got up and walked into the lab where her 'father' was working on Proto man.

"Dr. Light?" Roll said as she entered the lab.

"Yes Roll?" Dr. Light asked, hearing the uncertainty in her voice.

Roll looked down at the floor, for a second she didn't know if she should ask her question or not. But the agony of not knowing won out and she asked: "Can I ask you a question? It's about Dr. Wily..."

Dr. Light stood up from his computer terminal and sat down on a nearby couch and motioned for Roll to sit next to him. "What do you want to know Roll?"

Roll complied and sat next to Dr. Light. "How did this all start... Why did Dr. Wily start making bad robots? Why does he want to rule the world?"

Dr. Light sighed. "I guess it began some time ago... A few years before Proto man was built, Dr. Wily and I were good friends. We always had been ever since we had met in college and began our partnership." Dr. Light leaned back in his chair, he may have been in his early sixties but at the present time he sure felt much much older. "Soon after we graduated from college, Albert fell in love with a nice young girl named Elise and soon after married her. Not long afterwards they had a son named Scott Wily. Sadly... Elise came down with a rare irreparable disease that caused her to slowly whither like a plant in autumn."

Roll nodded, silently she was glad that she was an android and that human diseases had no effect on her. "Is that why Dr. Wily became what he is?"

Dr. Thomas Light nodded. "He had to watch as Elise wasted away slowly in front of him. After his wife died things began to fall apart for Albert. He grew increasingly aggressive towards his son Scott and eventually the authorities took him to a foster home after his school teachers discovered the marks on his beatings. That really hurt Albert, after that he grew more and more bitter. And after the press gave me more credit than him for the creation of your older brother Proto man... Well you know the rest."

Roll looked down at the floor, she had never been told any of this, and she doubted that Mega man knew either. "Dr. Light? Does Jonny know about this?"

Dr. Light shook his head. "He doesn't. I never told the boy, and both Scott and his wife never told him, after all he was very young during the time he was living with his parents."

Roll's lips quivered for a second then hugged her creator, sobbing softly. Roll loved Jonny as much as her brothers, heck she liked to think of him as an 'adopted brother'.

Dr. Light put his arms around the child-like robot, trying to comfort Roll by rocking her a little. "It's okay Roll, its okay..."

Roll settled down over time, but she still felt sorry for Jonny. Not to mention she was still worried for Mega man and Rush on that other world and Proto man who lay broken in over on the lab table.

"Remington, what are you doing?" Sally asked, looking over at the Floating island's chief of police.

Remington was in full riot gear and had a shock stick with him. A shock stick was a device Jonny had made special for Remington's police station just to help make the people feel more comfortable around robots. They where about five feet long, made of solid unpainted steel, and at one end was a prong that would emit a strong pulse of electricity if it touched anything when activated. These were ideal for fighting robots, not that they had ever been used before.

"What I'm doing is suiting up to help defend this city."

"And how do you plan on doing that?" Sally asked, thinking his courage was nothing but bravado. "You won't last two minutes out there with those robots out there."

"Sally, many of my men were injured defending this city. I would never give them an order I wouldn't do myself. Now I'm going to go out there and help fight those robots."

"Remington, I understand your obligation to the city but you gotta understand that even Jonny with that arm of his lost to that red robot of Dr. Wily's. And you won't just be going up against him. There's a whole group of robots that are the cream of the doctor's crop with him that can, according to Jonny, go head to head with two Robot masters a piece."

Remington sighed and took the helmet off. "I guess you have a point... I could search the city to see if there's anyone that did not evacuate like they where told."

"Be careful Remington!" Ali-Su cried after Remington, who had ran out the door as soon as he finished his statement. "He's just like Jonny... Why do they do this?"

"It's something men have I guess, all men have a strong urge to defend what is theirs or what they believe in." Sally explained. "Women create life and men protect it, that's how things work in a nutshell."

Ali-Su nodded in agreement. What Sally had said sounded very rhetorical, so she decided not to respond at the risk of saying anything redundant. 'Please be careful everyone...'

Mega man could see the firefight that was taking place in the streets now. It still felt weird to be on the same side as the Robot masters, but he was glad to see that they were back from the grave and doing good here on this world. Mega man took a deep breath, this was going to be tough...

The Robot masters had been fighting for sometime now, Metal man, Burner man, and Magnet man had been badly damaged and sat in the alleyway for protection from the fire fight ensuing just feet away from them.

"Hey dudes! Look! It's the boss!" Burner man said in his mellow- sounding tone. Punk had punctured Burner man's gas tanks that fed his flames, he had to extinguish the welding torch like nozzle on his forehead other wise we would've exploded. Ballade and King had dinged him up pretty bad too...

Magnet man lifted his cracked optics towards the sky. If he had had a mouth instead of a face plate he would've had a mile wide grin. "Good, now we have a chance at fighting back!"

Metal man said nothing, he had been blasted in the back by Ballade and piledrived by Quint, who had left huge dents in his armor, not to mention bending his blade completely out of shape. He had been the first to crawl out of the fight and seek shelter. He knew that if he lived through this the others would never let this die.

Dr. Wily meanwhile boarded his Mini Skulker again, retreating to the safety of the skies far above the firefight between the Robot masters and Elite masters.

However for the Robot masters, the red robot lay on the grass just beyond the battle field that had been so feared, that had been deactivated due to the efforts of Remington... Opened its eyes.

To be continued...
