Prologue
Midnight had arrived. On a populated island, there was a town and a massive metropolis where the populace lived. Even past midnight, the people were out and about. No one would be wise to the arrival of a massive submarine beneath the wild ocean waves, approaching the island on the side where the non-populated mountain region was located. Slowly but surely, this submarine rose above the waters near the shore.
A hatch would open and a small black and yellow colored aircraft would soar through the skies. Just as quietly as the sub, the aircraft took off to the sky, flying over the mountains before landing near one of the entrances to a large forest area.
Inside the aircraft was a reploid individual with a black sphere on his right shoulder and a hard hat sitting beside his left leg. The reploid then spoke through his communicator.
"We have arrived, Mistress."
He would then hear the voice of a young girl.
"Wonderful~" She said with glee. "I will be moving our craft to a more discrete location. You three have your objectives. You have shown promise in the past, but now is the time to showcase your talents. I will not tolerate failure."
"Relaaax. We got this." A more chill individual spoke, not matching the reploid's voice.
"We won't fail you!" Another voice, more child-like than the other two, replied.
"I will arrive on the island shortly after moving the craft." The girl explained. "Once I do, I'll relay it's coordinates so that you may make a quick getaway if need be. We'll reconvene at the port town after you've completed your task. Then we can truly commence with our mission~"
The reploid nodded, not that his 'boss' could really see it. "Understood. Proceeding with the reconnaissance. Safe travels, mistress."
"The same for you three. Good luck~" The girl grinned before cutting the communications.
The reploid then unfastened his seat belt and got up. The hard hat on the ground suddenly lifted up, revealing two big eyes watching the taller entity walk away from the cockpit.
"Come," The reploid spoke, opening the door behind his seat. "We mustn't fail her..."
It is the year 2545.
Earth has become technologically advanced over two centuries after the conclusion of the wars between Humans and Reploids; organic lifeforms and mechanical lifeforms.
As the two species worked hand-in-hand to rebuild the devastated Earth, the lines between them have been bridged. This is due to a global law which many dubbed the 'Equality Laws'; created by the coalition government, Legion.
For Humans, they must receive cybernetic implants after a certain age, making them a cyborg entity called 'Humanoids'. Humans can replace either part of their bodies or all of their bodies. The decision was theirs.
For Reploids, they were given lifespans. In addition, due to the two species looking too identical, Reploids are identified by an upside-down red triangle marked on their foreheads. Many assume that this mark is reminiscent of the legendary "father of Reploids" from the 22nd Century.
With the Humans having the standard strength of Reploids and the Reploids having the mortality of Humans, the two species-humanity-were finally coexisting peacefully after centuries of war.
However, although the world has been mostly revived, the mechanical monstrosities known as Mavericks continue to ravage the land. This forced the creation of safety zones - Innerpeace and Outlands; the former designated for areas that are safe for the people and the latter designated for areas that were a lawless land where Maverick activity was inevitably high.
Despite the dangers of Mavericks, the people continue to prosper. Including the expected organizations such as police officers, militaries, hospitals, schools, transporters, and such, more unique organizations were created following the resurgence of the world; One where you investigate the Mavericks' origin, one where you work for Legion specifically and work with the dream of getting rich, one where you work in the research and developments of this century's advanced technology and build upon it for future generations, and so much more. The people will seek out whatever lifestyle suits them and helps them live fulfilling lives.
Earth's newfound peace would be challenged; Not just by the Mavericks, but by the emergence of "Chosen Ones", individuals who may or may not be like everday citizens granted superpowers by mysterious artifacts. . These individuals have great power, but how they use them depends on the user. Two months prior, in a country, or nation, known as Cinq Ville, a company called Slither Inc. had collapsed. To the public, what happened was unknown. But to a certain few, the truth was clear; Chosen Ones were involved in it's collapse. Even still, the existence of these Chosen Ones would slowly be recognized to the public through rumors and legends...
Our story focuses on a young boy who discovers that he is one of the Chosen Ones.
And as a Chosen One, he is given the title of "Mega Man."
