Chapter Seven

Inferno!


Megaman was riding Rush Jet along the water and he was laid back as the water splashed in his face. "It's nice too just cool off like this. Especially at times like this." Rush barked back and Megaman closed his eyes. 'Up it goes…'

Megaman nearly fell off of Rush when the oil rig he was heading to suddenly exploded. He sat up and gaped at the amounts of smoke already rising from it. "Rush, faster!" Megaman got to his feet as Rush sped up.

Megaman was thrown off, however, when Rush was hit with a piece of debris. Megaman swam the rest of the way and climbed onto the rig. There, Oilman was standing with a cocky smirk on.

"What are you doing?"

"Having a bonfire."

"People could be hurt."

"Ain't my problem."

"I'll make it yours!"

"Ooh! Threats! Lot of good they'll do ya."

Megaman fired a fully-charged buster shot which Oilman easily sidestepped. Oilman shot oil from his buster as Megaman shot a buster shot from his. He darted around the oil and began rapidly shooting at Oilman. Soon, he was backed up against the edge of the rig.

"Nowhere left but down." Oilman mock-saluted and fell off. Megaman ran over a saw oil on top of the water. "Lovely." Megaman shifted weapons and dove in. He was immediately pelted with a girder held by Oilman. He smirked as Megaman snickered, releasing bubbles.

Oilman raised an eyebrow before he was shorted-out by Lightning Grapple. The people from the rig were working on putting out the inferno, but some came to see what happened to Megaman. He surfaced about the same time that Oilman surfaced, face down. "I'll be back shortly!"

Megaman beamed off with Oilman and immediately entered the lab where Light was waiting. "Ah, bring him in here." Oilman's mainframe was opened up and Light brought out some unusual instruments.

"I'll have to reprogram him, much like I did with Timeman." Megaman left the lab and found most of the people in the living room looking at Timeman, who sat in the corner. He was looking out the window at Protoman, who leaned by the front door. He turned to Rocky when he entered.

"I take it you hate me now." Rocky shook his head and Timeman scoffed. He turned to look outside again. "They're going to have us shut down." The Sinister Six turned and looked at him. "What makes you say that?" Timeman turned to Elecman.

"Remember what happened after you first went Robot Master? They had you shut down. The only reason you're back up and active is that you helped take Wily down the second time around."

Timeman turned to look outside. "There's an abandoned warehouse on the harbor near the airport. It's also near the oil rig where you were five minutes ago. That's where Wily is. It's the least I can do."

Megaman nodded and informed Dr. Light. He first teleported to the oil rig to help put out the fire, then returned briefly to check on Oilman. As he was about to leave, a news report about a massive drill found in the center of the quarry came on. From his base, the figure chuckled at this. "All I must do is wait for the perfect opportunity, then… Splat… goes the humans. Hahaha!"


Next time: Megaman takes on an unknown assailant.
