Trouble In Paradise

Disclaimer: I do not own the Classic Megaman series, the Megaman comic series, or the Battle Network series. I like them all, but I don't own them.
In the next chapter, Megaman squares off with the eight EXE series Robot Masters and things become worse when the Boltz Boys learn the existence of Bass. Also, in case you like this fanfic, I'm considering a sequel. Just review me and say that you'd like to see one created. That's it. Anyways, here's chapter five!
Chapter Four
Meet The EXE Series
The newly-arrived being was large and had brown armor. His helmet looked like the top of a tiger's head. The people around it just gaped at its size, thus no one noticed the three lumps where his knuckles would've been. Megaman grabbed his buster as the stranger uttered two words. "Found him." Megaman started and didn't have time to react. Suddenly, something swooped down and sliced Megaman's shoulder and landed on a tree branch. This one had purple armor and a small, curly moustache. He also had two small fangs and a yellow mark on his head. "This is the hero that is Megaman? Bah! This is nothing more than a tinker toy compared to us." Then, a lightning bolt startled Megaman and he spun around to see another robot with yellow and black armor. Four large power generators were attached to his back and a lightning bolt emblem was on his chest. He raised his hand and placed it under his chin. "Indeed. If this is all we have to do, this will take much less time than I'd initially thought."
Suddenly, a spinning blade spun by Megaman, who managed to dodge it at the last second. Before Megaman got a good look at it, it flew into the air and attached itself to another robot's right hand. This one looked like it was based on an Indian. He had red marking on his face, a tomahawk for a right hand, a large red and white headdress, and a light blue-greenish armor. He also had an emblem of a hawk on his small chest. "Much shorter. He was lucky to dodge this, but it shall not happen again." A missile was fired from the playground and Megaman rolled out of the way. The new figure walked up with an arm cannon aimed at him. He had camouflaged armor and a scope of some sort on his face. His right arm was a cannon and the left was currently holding it steady. "This will be child's play. Why are we wasting our time like this?"
Suddenly, a huge pile of sand began rising from under Megaman, who rolled away. The sand rose into the air and formed a face. "This is indeed child's play. But we must be optimistic." In a flash of orange, a stream of fire passed by Megaman's face and he backed up. A shaded figure walked out of the now burning trees that lay nearby the school. He had red and gray armor, the same fire emblem that Heat Man.EXE had had on his chest, and a huge flame rose from the burner on his head. "Hahaha! Waste of time? Nonsense!" He waved his pipe-like arms around briefly. "Why waste time when we're just heating things up?" Finally, a huge plant-like pod popped out of the ground and sprouted. A robot with a white flower with pink highlights for a head rose out of it as it disappeared. His armor was mostly green and was covered in thorns. "This is nothing compared to our united power! You are all just anxious to get started."
Megaman looked at the surrounding eight robots and then the black and yellow one spoke. "We are, in case you're denser than we thought, here to destroy you. I am Elec Man.EXE, this is Fire Man.EXE…" He pointed to the robot with the flaming head. "This is Tomahawk Man.EXE…" He pointed to the Indian-like robot. "This is Searchman.EXE…" He pointed to the camouflaged robot. "This is Desert Man.EXE…" He pointed to the mound of sand. "This is Beast Man.EXE…" He pointed to the huge robot. "This is Shade Man.EXE…" He pointed to the vampire-like robot. "…And finally, this is Plant Man.EXE." He motioned to the flower-head. Elec Man.EXE smirked and looked at Megaman. "We are the EXE series and you, my blue bomber friend, are executed."
Before Megaman could react, a barrage of missiles were fired and caused Megaman to be thrown forward where Fire Man.EXE punched him hard in the gut. Shade Man.EXE lunged forward, grabbed him by the shoulders, and threw him in the air where Tomahawk Man.EXE hurled his blade at him. This sliced Megaman across the side and Plant Man.EXE rose into the air by standing on a vine. Then he stood erect and swung his left leg just as Megaman became parallel with him. This caused a sickening snap and Desert Man.EXE raised a sandy hand and slammed him into the ground. Beast Man.EXE then swung his fist and three large claws shot out. Megaman didn't have time to dodge the attack before he was slashed across the chest. Finally, Elec Man.EXE grabbed Megaman shoulder and sent a shock pulsing through his body. Megaman cried out in pain, but no one could move because of their fright. The surge stopped within seconds and Megaman stumbled away.
As Fire Man.EXE stepped forward, Elec Man.EXE held up his hand. "We came to make a point and we've made it." Fire Man.EXE started grumbling, but beamed off anyways. All of the EXE Robot Masters followed save for Elec Man.EXE. He looked at the extremely weakened Megaman. "Rest assured. You're outmatched. You may try to fight us separately if you choose, but rest assured, if you do, we will kill you." With that, the final EXE series Robot Master beamed off, leaving Megaman and the group of stunned humans. Just then, Chelsea cautiously stepped forward. "Rocky?" Megaman swayed back and forth, saw a brief image of a black-armored robot, then fainted. "ROCKY!"
Elsewhere, the Boltz Boys had slipped off and hurried home. Once inside, Dag called out, "Uncle Wily! Are you here?" There was some stumbling heard, then Wily appeared with a cane. "Ah, there you are! I was getting worried about you three. What happened?" The three looked at each other. "Some Robot Masters attacked. We managed to get out of there in time though." Wily seemed surprised at this. "Really?" Dez nodded. "Yeah. I'm certain Megaman's gotten there by now." Wily smiled. Ah, very well. I don't know what we'd do without him." Moments later, the boys were in there rooms and Wily was in the basement. "Bass! You worthless piece of scrap metal! Where are you!" Unfortunately, the three needed help figuring something out that they'd seen on TV when they heard this. They pressed up against the corner as a black-armored robot appeared.
"What is it, old man?" Wily mumbled a quick insult. "Things are going as planned! Now that the EXE series have forced Megaman to reveal himself, I want you to finish him off!" Bass snorted. "Why didn't you have them do it? Never mind. It's not important." As he turned to leave, Wily grabbed his shoulder. "Also…" Bass turned his head slightly. "I want you to keep an eye on my nephews. I know them to well and I think that they might suspect something." When this was said, the three made they way back to Dez's room. "I can't believe this! Uncle Wily created the Robot Masters?" Dag sighed. "I hate to say this, but I think that we need to tell the meat about this." Dix looked at his brother. "I hate to say this, but I think you're right." The three agreed on this and then went to their separate rooms.
(A.N. I've made one heck of a blooper! I read the first issue of the Megaman comic again and, due to my apparent lack of light, I now know that Rocky's male friend's name is Alan, not Aaron. Just so you don't get confused by this.)
By now, Chelsea and Alan had taken Megaman and started heading for the nearest hospital. Alan was carrying the unconscious Megaman as Chelsea directed him. "Why do I have to carry him?" Chelsea looked back. ""Cause it's a man job and your the man of us two!" Alan sweatdropped. "Not to be rude, but I think that that's the other way around!" Chelsea ignored this and spun around the corner, running straight into a person. Alan ran up and stopped at the corner where Chelsea looked up at the large stranger and his multi-leveled companions. "Oh, jeez! I'm so…" The second tallest held up a hand. "It's quite aright. No one was…" Suddenly, he noticed Megaman. "Rocky?" Chelsea turned around and gave Alan a confused glance. "How do you…" The four quickly disposed of their clothes to reveal that they were robots as well. "What the…"
The second tallest, who bore a striking resemblance to Elec Man.EXE, ran forward and eased Megaman to the ground. "It's okay! We're his half-brothers!" Chelsea and Alan started, then exchanged glances. "Half-brothers?" Elec Man motioned Bomb Man over. "Get him and let's move!" Bomb Man picked him up and the four ran off. Chelsea and Alan were stunned until Elec Man ran back. "Are you coming or not?" The two started then followed Elec Man. Shortly, they arrived at the Light estate. It was a huge mansion that looked like it was fit to hold fifty people with room to spare. "I just hope that Doc Light can fix this!" Bomb Man said as he ran up to the front door. As the group entered the estate, Bass, who stood on a nearby building, smirked evilly.
In the next chapter, Megaman regains consciousness and takes on Elec Man.EXE. Also, Chelsea and Alan learn more about Rocky's alter ego. Until then, Read and Review and I'll continue!
