I'm back and feeling better than ever. Here's a new chapter to start off my return. Gammatron's characters belong to Gammatron, Apapa155's characters belong to Apapa155. Enjoy. Also, I've got a new 'character', so to speak, to put in the story for maybe two chapters.


A Unique Power Part I

"Another day, another chance to kick some shebs," Max said, once again switching to Mando'a with Eva in the room.

"If I didn't know any better, I'd say that you have a specific baddie in mind," J said, looking at his friend and then at everyone else gathered. "Who is it?"

"Our old friend, the good doctor."

"Oh, joy. Max, why do you always pick on the poor guy," Z asked. "I mean, Mr. Meda even told us that he was under control. So, shouldn't we actually be trying to help him?"

"I know. But old habits die hard. Especially when it comes to Dr. Wily."

"Wait, we're going against Dr. Wily this time around," Lan said. "You have got to let me and Megaman come along for this."

"Oh, you are. As well as Chaud and Protoman and me. Everyone else is staying here."

"Wait, I'm not coming," J asked, confused. "Why?"

"Because it only takes three of us with armor. No more. Now then, you four get ready. We're leaving in ten." And with that, Max left the room.

"Man, this bites," J said.

"Why," Naruto asked.

"Because out of all the villains we've faced, I like to kick his shebs the most."

"Alright, we're ready to go," Max said, now suited up and giving Alia a thumbs up sign.

"Right. Beginning teleportation in three, two, one," Alia said. "Teleporting."

"Tell the doctor I said 'hi'," J said as they began to fade out.

"Sure thing, buddy," Max said.

"Teleportation successful," Layer said.

"Ok, so which way do we go," Lan, now in Cross Fusion, asked.

"Uh…I really have no idea," Max said, looking around.

"What?! How the hell can you not know," Chaud exclaimed, also in Cross Fusion. "You're supposed to be the expert on this guy!"

"Hey, I didn't say anything like that. I just said that I know how the guy normally thinks." He turned around to look at the surroundings, which was a large building, with various pieces of machinery in the room they were currently in. He pointed towards a door, the only door in the room. "Let's try that door."

"Because it's the only one in here or because you're too lazy to find another way?"

"It's the only one in here, smart ass."

They went through the door to find themselves in a long corridor with dim lighting. They began to walk to the left, only to come to a dead end. "Great. Now we have to back track," Lan said, starting to turn around.

Max put a hand on his shoulder, saying, "Hang on a sec."

"Why?"

"Just trust me." They heard creaking and looked down to see the floor starting to flex.

"Oh, that can't be good," Chaud said.

CRACK

They fell through the newly formed hole, now in a large room that was bare, except for a large door at the end that was about twenty feet high and at least fifteen feet wide. And standing in the doorway was a large man with what looked like robotic armor parts on his body. On his left arm was a large gun with a single barrel attached to his wrist, while his right arm had a what looked like a drill split into four parts folded back on the wrist. The man was sitting in a glass dome that acted as a cockpit and there were wires attached to his body, apparently connected to the robot's limbs. The man himself was wearing a gray coat with silver buttons along it and pitch black hair that was slicked back. He also had a monocle on his right eye. "Ah, you've made it," the man said, looking at them. "I was beginning to wonder if you would make it."

"Oh, it's nice to see you as well, doctor," Max said. "So, how're the robots doing? I trust you managed to fix them up."

"Oh, they're doing just fine. Tell me, where's J? I was hoping that I would be able to destroy him as well."

Meanwhile, Lan and Chaud watched this conversation with dumbfounded looks on their faces. Why does Max always do this, Protoman asked.

Who knows, Megaman said. Well, other than Max himself.

"Ah, here's back at home. But he did say hi," Max said, answering the man's question. "Oh, Dr. Wily, I'd like to introduce you to Lan and Chaud."

"Oh, hello boys," the man answered. "I am Dr. Wily."

"Uh, hi," Lan said, still confused. "Man, this guy is nothing like the Wily we know. In fact, he seems almost kind of…kind."

"Yes, well, now that introductions have been made, I have something to show you all," Wily said. "Watch carefully," he said, as the gun began to charge with a purple light. He fired it at them before they could react, hitting them. But they were still standing.

"Shit," Max said, going down on one knee.

"What was that," Lan asked, also on his knee.

"That was something of a power nullifier. I coulda sworn I destroyed it last time I was at his base. But I guess he fixed it. But I don't remember the armor or the beam being that small."

"That's because I've made them into cybernetic integration pieces," Wily said. "The armor itself is a piece of cyber technology. Just one of many that I plan on making."

"Yeah? Well, you won't get that chance," Chaud said, getting to his feet. "Come on guys, let's show 'im what we can do." He jumped at Wily, holding his sword over his head.

"My, what an impatient boy you are," Wily said, drawing his right arm back. The pieces that looked part of drill all folded up to make a drill, which began to spin. He flung his arm forward as Chaud came within range of the drill, hitting him dead center. The force of the impact caused Chaud to fly back, as well as force him out of Cross Fusion.

"Chaud, sir," Protoman said, running to his operator, who was now unconscious. "Damn it, wake up."

"Well, that's certainly knew," Max said. "Protoman, is he okay?"

"Yeah. Just unconscious." He stood up and turned to face Wily. "That was a very unwise move." He was surrounded by light and was then in Muramasa Style. He drew Muramasa and took a stance, both hands on the hilt. He suddenly charged at him, once again raising his sword over his head.

Wily just yawned, looking bored. "Oh, will they never learn," he said, as the drill once more split into four, but only folded back halfway. A beam shot from the middle of them to form a sword, which he used to block the Muramasa. He then charged the gun, the light now changing to yellow, slamming the gun into Protoman's gut and discharging his weapon. Protoman was sent flying backwards to slam into the wall, falling just behind the others.

"Ok, what else has this guy got in that armor," Lan asked. "Screw it. My turn now." He charged at Wily, who went to block him, but surprisingly, Lan actually got past the block. "Katana Battlechip." He slashed at the robot, managing to leave a two inch deep, six inch long gash in its armor, before being knocked back by the drill, forcing him out of Cross Fusion, Megaman managing to catch him.

"Lan, are you okay," Megaman said, landing on his feet beside Max.

"Yeah, I'm fine," Lan said, getting to his feet, abruptly falling down. "Ok, maybe not so much."

"Ok, this isn't good. Maybe we shoulda brought more people," Max said.

"No, we should have brought less," Megaman said. "OF COURSE YOU SHOULD HAVE BROUGHT MORE, YOU IDIOT!"

"Hey, no need to yell," Max said. "If we double team him, we can take him."

"You're right. Sorry." Megaman turned to face Wily.

"Right then. Oh, one last thing, if we lose we'll probably die."

"Oh great, now you tell me. So, now Lan's life and Chaud's and Protoman's lives are on us."

"Basically. Listen, fight for them. That might help."

"Alright, let's go." Megaman's navimark began to glow, while Max was surrounded by an aura of light blue light. "What the-"

They were surrounded by a bright light that was a swirl of silver and light blue. When the light was gone, there was only one person standing there. He had light blue armor, his should pads silver. His boots had blue coloring, with silver stripes that went from top to bottom. His gloves were silver, the fingers blue on the top. His helmet was blue, two silver ridges running back along it, a silver visor over his eyes. When the visor was in the right light, the eyes were visible, revealing the right eye to be green, while the left was brown.

"Hmmmm," Wily said, looking around. "Who are you and what happened to those other two boys?"

"I am Soul Fusion," the person answered. "And we're right here." His voice was a mix of Megaman's voice and Max's voice.

"Oh, now I see. So, you are those two? Well, it won't take long to rid myself of you."


The one thing Max said couldn't happen and it happened. Ah well, what are ya gonna do? Gammatron's characters belong to Gammatron, Apapa155's character's belong to Apapa155. Please review.
