THE CLIFF
Hello again. Sorry it took so long, but I just had two weeks of vacation, and I'm bushed! Straight to reviews!
Banbie Bunny's Bro: Was it really disappointing? I plan to re-write a couple of the chapters after the story's finished, so look out for a better chapter.
Sorry, Crash gets away yet again!
Thanks for reviewing all my chapters so far. It really means a lot to me!
Lonely Light: Thanks!
Disclaimer: I don't own Megaman, or any related characters. I don't own Charlie and the chocolate factory either, and as much as I wish I did, I don't own Johnny Depp. Excuse me while I go crawl into a hole.(JK)
THE CLIFF: CHAPTER 8
The end?
Roll was lying on her bed, reading, when she heard a sharp rap on the door. Without even bothering to look up, she said, "Come in, Bass."
The door opened, and Bass poked his un-helmeted head in. Roll hid a smile. About an hour ago, Crash had stolen and hidden Bass' helmet, so now he had to tie his shoulder length purple hair back to keep it out of his eyes.
"How'd you know it was me?" he asked, stepping into the room.
Roll marked her page and put the book down. "You and Blues are the only ones who knock like that, and I know that Blues is currently on a date."
Bass raised his eyebrows. "A date? With a girl? Since when does he date?"
"Since he met the girl of his dreams." Roll chuckled, getting off the bed.
"And that would be…?"
"Sorry Bass, but Blues made me promise I wouldn't tell you, Crash, or Zero."
Bass pouted and rolled his eyes. "Figures."
Roll smiled and put a hand on Bass' shoulder. "So, what did Dr. Light say?"
Bass feinged ignorance. "About what?"
Roll frowned. "Don't play dumb Bass. What did he say when you adked if we could date?"
Bass rubbed his chin and made a 'thinking face'. "Well, first he faked a heart attack… And he's a really good actor. Then, after I got freaked out and he told me he was fine, he said I could date you as long as it was what you wanted."
Roll hugged Bass and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "That's terrific! So, when's our first date?"
Bass reached into his pocket and pulled out two tickets. "Tonight, if that's ok with you. Two tickets for the new "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, starring Johnny Depp."
"Sounds great!"

Roll and Bass walked out of the movie theatre, comparing movies.
"I liked the Tim Burton touch. It made the movie more… gripping." Roll said.
"Yeah, and the Oompa-loompas were better in this movie." Bass replied, stretching.
Roll frowned. "I disagree. I mean, really, they could have at least gotten one more person to add a little variety."
"But they sang better!" Bass insisted. "And besides,-"
"Hey, look!" said Roll, pointing. "It's Rythym and Blues!"
Bass looked over to where she was pointing and saw Blues hugging a girl wearing a short purple dress with a white bottom. She had black hair that was pulled up into two high ponytails that trailed down to her lower back and she had bright purple eyes. Bass blinked in surprise.
"Is that the girl he's dating?"
"Uh, whoops…" Roll said quietly, realizing her mistake.
"And her name is Rythym?" Bass asked, grinning like an idiot. "No wonder he didn't want you to tell us!"
By this time, Blues and his girlfriend had noticed they were there. He ran a hand down his face as she dragged him over.
"You are Blues' sister, ja?" she asked Roll, her Sweedish accent clear.
"Um, ja…" Roll replied uncertainly.
Blues glared at Bass, who was in a silent fit of laughter. "Don't say anything to Crash or Zero."
Bass caught his breath. "Don't worry… I won't say… anything…" He burst into a fit of giggles.
Rythym turned to Blues. "I can meet the rest of your family soon, ja?"
Blues looked unsure. "Well… I dunno…"
"C'mon!" Bass said, thumping Blues on the back. "They'll find out sooner or later anyway!"
"The hippie is right, ja?"
"… I'll pretend I didn't hear that…"

Rythym and Blues were in the living room of the Light household, chatting about places they had been. Zero, Dr. Light, Megaman and the pets were in their own rooms, and Bass and Roll were walking down the hall to the back porch.
"Thank you so much Bass! Our date today was a lot of fun!" Roll exclaimed, giving him a kiss of the cheek.
"Anything to make you happy." Bass replied.
"Bass, will you promise me something?"
"What is it?"
"Promise me you'll love me forever."
Bass smiled and, sweeping Roll up in his arms, kissed her. When their lips parted, he put her down gently.
"I promise. I'll love you forever Roll."
Roll pushed him playfully. "Don't startle me like that!" she giggled. They continued down the hall, laughing happily together, unaware of the listener behind them.
Zero waited until their footsteps passed his room and faded down the hallway, then turned back to his desk.
"Forever may be shorter than you think, Bass." Zero murmured as he began to outline his plans.
The end?
That was the last chapter, and I hope you all enjoyed it!
I was planning on putting up a cast party chapter next, (I've mentioned it once or twice,) where the cast comes and comments on the story and watches some spoofs I wrote. There may even be a part where you can write to the cast, and they'll answer. Like an advice article, (Or something.) There will alsobe a spoiler for a sequel that may come.However, I want to know if you want to see it. Please vote, and if at least one person wants it, it's going up.
I want to thank everyone who reviewed again, expecially Banbie Bunnys Bro, who reviewed every chapter, Snickerer, who enjoyed the humor I put into this story, andMaverick Hunter Pheonix, who kept me updating.
Thanks for reading The Cliff, and I hoped you enjoyed it!
