Megaman Reimagined: The Hero With The Heart Of Steel

by Protagonist7

A reimagining of the classic MegaMan. Kind of like a combination of Eddie Lebron's movie and Iron Man. In the near future, a brilliant scientist and industrialist, Dr. Light, has invented robots made to change the world, but when they are used for evil, he must send his son to stop them...

17. Coming Down In Flames

Coming down in flames

MegaMan teleported to the steel mill district in Pittsburg. Lan wasn't far behind. This city was now even more of an industrial nightmare after the digital revolution. There were actually rivers of molten steel running through some areas, behind plenty for fencing. Smog filled the area. A Joe carrying a welding torch looked at the duo "MegaMan." It said. To lunged at MegaMan. MegaMan froze the torch with his new ability. Lan shot the bottom of it with an M4. It exploded, killing the Joe.

MegaMan saw a big pillar of fire come up through a grate underneath him. He froze the bottom of it, freezing it. Robotic bats flew in his direction. He slid underneath them, and then turned around and shot them.

A crusher robot known as a big eye fell from a tower. It was made primarily to crush objects like cars. MegaMan narrowly dodged it. He jumped behind a stack of I-beams and returned fire with a power shot. Lan grabbed his M4 and fired at the mechanization. It turned, and tried to jump up and crush him. However, if found it was frozen stuck to the floor. Lan hit the enemy with his rifle stock in the eyeball, killing it.

"Nice save, MegaMan." said Lan, bro-fisting Mega.

Their celebration was cut short by a Security Joe. Buster shots came in and hit MegaMan. Luckily, MegaMan could take a hit. His energy shielding could block standard fire for a certain amount of time before it lost power.

((AN: HP batteries explained!))

MegaMan fired his buster at a pipe above the robot. It sprayed boiling water on the enemy, distracting it long enough to be shot.

MegaMan found the gate. Lan stood in front of it. "I'll guard the gate. You defeat FireMan" he said.

A figure resembling a knight with flame-thrower busters stepped forward. It was FireMan. It said "Art thou ready to face thy doom, MegaMan!?"

MegaMan answered that question "FireMan, you need to stop this. You're hurting people!"

FireMan spoke "and did they not hurt me!? Thou is naive. I'M FINISHED TALKING!"

Suddenly, the helmet of FireMan caught fire, and flamethrowers fired from his hands. The napalm stuck to MegaMan, who instinctively put it out with IceMan's former weapon. FireMan's flamethrowers were now red hot, and still had the ignition lit (the ignition being a blowtorch which sets the napalm on fire after it leaves the weapon). He pressed it against MegaMan's armor, and it instantly damaged it, like a lit cigarette being pushed against skin. MegaMan recoiled, and then fired ice at FireMan. MegaMan half expected it to do almost nothing, but that was not the case. FireMan's napalm froze easily, it seemed. But he was never made to operate in cold temperatures. The ice hit his shoulder, and it made him lose control of the entire arm, temporarily. MegaMan grabbed the red hot busters, and though it burned through him, he was able to freeze up FireMan's only real weapon. MegaMan's hand reluctantly formed an arm cannon. It hurt. A lot. But, MegaMan was without human glandular system that caused us to lose control of our bodies when we were in a lot of pain. He formed his Mega Buster and fired again at the freezing machine known as FireMan. The changes in temperature and pressure were too much for FireMan's fuel, and it ignited inside his tank.

Later that day….

"Here with you now, Jenny Johnson on CNN news. Another robot master was killed today, and we now have info on why it might have happened. We found this photo here. We believe it to be some sort of android, but its exact model and the identity of its owner are unknown. We have an eye witness statement here"

A clip showed of a witness with a Mohawk talking to a camera "There were, like, all these robotic bats in that alleyway, and I thought I was all like, toast. And this blue guy shows up and they tried to attack him, and he was all like 'pew-pew!' and there were explosions everywhere! He was like some sort of Blue Bomber, man! It was TIGHT!"

"The intentions of this Blue Bomber are currently unknown. It is also unknown if it is acting autonomously or following orders from some other agency. Government denies ownership of the machine. It is, however, worth noting that it saved at least 50 hostages in the area."
