No TV Week

It was Monday. MegaMan woke up, ate his electric taco he got last episode, and went to school. In homeroom a voice came over the intercom.

Wily: Will the whole school please report to my office for an assembly?

MegaMan: I can't believe we have to cram into his office again.

Roll: Actually he fixed that problem.

The school files into the lunch room, which is now Wily's office.

Wily: It has come to my attention that some students here seem to prefer watching TV to doing their homework. Why do you think that is?

Zero raises his hand.

Zero: Because homework isn't enjoyable?

Wily: NO! It's obvious the TV is to blame for homework not being done! Next you'll be telling me it isn't responsible for the problem with violence that existed millions of years longer than it has! So I'm wildy overstepping my power as your principal and telling all of you not to watch TV for a week! If less homework is missed I will make not watching TV a permanent assignment. There will be no homework for this week.

Zero: But/

Wily: I don't want to here it! Screens are evil, don't make excuses for them using immature things like "logic"! Now leave school is dismissed.

Rock Monster: Sir, it's only 9:27.

Wily: I don't care, I have to get home and watch Judge Judy and go to a hypocrite's convention!

And so the school files out.

MegaMan: I can't believe he did that! He has no right to tell us what to do at home! We have to do something!

Zero: Stand up to him?

MegaMan: No, play a stupid juvenille trick!

And so they go to their clubhouse that they never mentioned before and never will again to plan.

MegaMan: We have to trick him into getting rid of this rule!

Roll: How about we use reverse psychology on him?

MegaMan: That won't work.

Roll: Fine, don't use reverse psychology.

MegaMan: Okay, I won't.

Roll: He was right...

Zero: Let's try negotiating. He's overstepping his power, we should win easily.

MegaMan: That's stupid. Let's call him pretending to work for a game show, stage it so he wins, make the final event writing an essay on how great TV is, and he won't fall for it and we'll get grounded and learn a valuable lesson.

Roll: That's perfect!

Zero: YOU'RE ALL IDIOTS! I'm leaving.

Roll: And despite what I said 2 seconds ago I quit to.

MegaMan: I guess I'll just have to live life without TV.

Act break.

Act 2:

MegaMan begins his first day without TV.

MegaMan: I can do this, I go 8 hours without TV every night when I sleep, this isn't so different...

MegaMan wakes up.

MegaMan: Well I guess I know why it wasn't so different. Okay, time to try to pass time consciously.

5 minutes later:

MegaMan: AAAAHHHHHHHH! I can't take it! I'll go insane! I'm doomed, DOOMED!

MegaMan takes the magnet off his head.

MegaMan: That has to be the worst time passing idea I've ever had. I need to think of something else. Maybe I can get my old job at

GameStop back.

MegaMan goes to GameStop but it's closed. The sign on the door says "This establishment is closed until the manager is finished with his trial for fraud and attempting to flee the country after being caught by Sigma."

MegaMan: That was an unusually detailed closed sign.

MegaMan goes back home.

MegaMan: I know, I'll take Rush for a walk!

Rush: Rat rould be reat RegaMan!

MegaMan: On second thought never mind.

Rush: Rhy must I talk rike ris?

MegaMan: I have to think of something to do! It's not like I have a switch that lets me just go into hybernation. Well I do but it's under my unremovable helmet. But that's besides the point, I need to think of something to do. I know, I'll make filler for KI!

MegaMan: Filler filler filler filler filler filler fill/

KI: Stop that, I'm above such stupid tricks to fill up space!

MegaMan: You're above such cheap tricks.

KI: Yes.

MegaMan: You fill up space with actual content?

KI: Not cheap filler.

MegaMan: Really?

KI: Really.

MegaMan: You?

KI: Yes. I don't cheaply fill up space.

MegaMan: Oh right. I was asking if you were the head of the Quick-E-Mart.

KI: 00

MegaMan: What's that supposed to mean?

KI: It expressed an emotion.

MegaMan: But what you said was "Zero underscore zero".

KI: Oh right ;)

MegaMan: Stop confusing me! Get out of my house!

KI: Fine :(

MegaMan: Well, that unneccessarily long encounter must have eaten up time. Wait a second, I know what I can do! I can play video games!

Wily: No you can't, in my ignorance I consider anything on a screen TV. No video games, computers, or digital watches!

MegaMan: YOU MONSTER! That's it, I'm breaking character! I don't care what I'm supposed to aprody, Wily's gone too far and I'm standing up to him and getting our digital watches back!

Wily: Why am I in your house to tell you things?

Act break.

Act 3:

MegaMan sets off to Wily's castle. After a long journey and defeating 8 bosses he reaches next door and enters the house.

Wily: Why didn't you ring the doorbell?

MegaMan: It said "Trap door activator" above it.

Wily: Well, painting over that would have voided the warranty. Anyway, you'll never reach my lair!

Wily sets off in his skull tank at 2 mph. 10 minutes later he reaches his lair.

Wily: MegaMan will never reach here... what are you doing here?

MegaMan: Your tank was going so slowly, I just followed it.

Wily: This isn't good, when he broke character he aquired trace amounts of intelligence! I could lose this time, especially since my skull tank has its attack features time locked until the final episodes.

MegaMan: Let us watch TV again! Why did you take it away in the first place?

Wily: Because I needed a scapegoat.

MegaMan: For what?

Wily: I'm planning to take over the world, when my robots are attacking cities I need everyone's attention on ridiculous thing like bashing TV and video games.

MegaMan: Who could possibly be stupid enough to ignore robot attacks for that?

Wily: Lots of people. Since banning my school from watching TV I took over 17 states.

MegaMan: That's ridiculous, I don't believe you!

Wily: You may be able to use logic now, but no one else on this show can.

MegaMan: Whatever, I'll just defeat you.

Wily: No! Not now, I can't fight you like this.

MegaMan: Then get rid of the TV ban.

Wily: Fine. And I guess you also want me to return the 17 states I conquered?

MegaMan: Yeah, sure, why not?

Wily: Fine!

When he says this MegaMan reverts to his normal character.

Wily: And you've got detention for 3 weeks for bothering me at home.

MegaMan: Okay...

Wily: Good, I can overstep my authority again.

The next day at school Wily repeals the TV ban. The nightmare is over and all the students learn that TV is the answer to all of life's problems. Stay tuned for the next episode of MegaMan Jr. High!
