Chapter 2; Lunar Distress
LOCATION; Dr. Light's Home
It was a relaxing day for Dr. Light and the rest of his robotic family. Rock and Roll were doing the usual chores around the house. This was a rare moment of peace for them. Dr. Wiley had not been heard from for over six months. The break from stopping the mad man's schemes was well received by all of the individuals of the House.
'It's strange, but I feel like this won't last.' This was the thought of the young android named Rock. He was glad to have a little vacation from stopping the evil doctor as the robotic hero Mega Man. But that didn't stop him from feeling uneasy and expecting another 'world domination' scheme from Wiley. He started to scratch his head deep in thought, messing up his brown hair.
"Is something wrong Rock?"
"Huh?" The voice of a young girl broke him out of his thoughts and to stare at his sister Roll. He looked over to the young fembot and gave her a very sheepish smile.
"Hehe, sorry just got distracted a little." This was a truthful answer. The thought of Wiley had made lose track of his surrounding and caused him to space out a little. This was now a regular occurrence for Rock and everyone was starting to notice.
"Have something on your mind Rock?" This time it was the voice of a man that brought him to the real world this time. It was the voice of Rock and Roll's creator and father Dr. Thomas Light. He was a brilliant man that had helped bring a new age in robotics. His light bots were a marvel of modern science and helped many people around the world.
"Oh, Dad I didn't see you there. I was just thinking it has been to long since we seen or heard from Dr. Wiley."
"Yes that is a good point. It's not like Albert to stay quiet for long." If anyone knew the mad doctor the best it was Dr. Light. At one time they were the best of friends. Working together to improve the world of robotics and science with their ideas. Graduating RIT together they felt as if they were on top of the world. So when they were called in to help on a project for the Global Defense force they were excited. But after their time at the research facility Wiley seem to change, then his quest for world domination began. This made Light regret not trying harder to give Wiley the credit he did deserve. But that was in the past, and Dr. Light knew he couldn't change the past.
"Doctor Light there is something happening on the monitor!" came the voice of the green robot named Auto called. There seemed to be slight tone of fear and worry.
Light and the two young Androids rushed into the living room and set their gaze onto the screen in front of them. There they looked at a news caster that was speaking about an anomaly that was occurring on the lunar surface.
"Just minutes ago many strange mechanical structures appeared from under the moon's surface. Many experts are baffled by their sudden appearance and defense officials are not responding to their appearance at this time." Those were the words the news caster spoke. The mechanical structures looked like towers that were hollow and had lines of energy crisscrossing over their surfaces.
"Those are…" Dr. Light's surprised voice rang through the room showing that he knew what these structures were. 'But the base had been abandoned years there's no way for those to be active unless…' his thoughts were interrupted by a sudden flash on the screen as the structures fired what seemed to be capsule like objects towards the earth itself.
"So they are activated." Light said in a concerned voice.
"Dad just what were those?" came rock's concerned voice. He stared up at his father seeing the concern and surprise written all over the doctor's face. Rock could tell that his father knew exactly what those structures were and what kind of object they had fired.
"Those, Rock, were a reminder that I thought I would never see again."
"So you recognize them as well, Thomas."
"It can't be?" came the surprise voice of Dr. Light.
"So you remember me as well, aye Dr." was the reply from the man in the doorway. He was wearing a standard military uniform that was heavily decorated and had the symbol the Global Defense Force, a winged shield with cross swords behind the shield. It was a very important officer in the GDF and had some history with Light.
"Is it really you, Domon Iron?" said the surprised doctor gazing upon the man with the same dark blue eyes and black and grey hair in the same style he remembered. Was this really the rising young officer he met on the first major project he worked on?
"Sorry we could not have met on more, pleasant terms Thomas." Was the man reply to the doctor's question. In his eyes the doctor still radiated the same optimism and good intentions that made them friends in the first place. But now was not the time for reminiscing. He had a job to do.
"Well technically it's General Iron now, but back to the matter at hand. Lunar Fortress had mysteriously come back online and the robots that are appearing from shot down carrier capsules make it obvious who's behind this." Was General Iron's statement to Dr. Light to which his old friend reacted like he had expected him to do.
"You don't mean, Wiley!"
"Unfortunately I do, old friend."
"What does Wiley have to do with this." was all Rock could say.
"So you're the legendary Mega Man." Said General Iron. "Well to answer your question your father here and Wiley used to work on a project with top scientist and the top brass of the GDF. The goal was to create robotic super soldiers that were to defend the earth from alien threats. The other purpose was to study an alien artifact. Your father and Wiley left after the first AI, Rago, was created to be the lead AI. I guess he used that design for all of his AI. But five years into the project were three of the robots were complete and the others were about to be finished the extraterrestrial device awoke and took over the base."
"So what happen then?" asked Roll curious.
"The robots lead by Rago, were able to evacuate everyone and stop the device. There they stayed as the devices Jailor until they stopped sending transmissions suddenly. The signals only came back after the recent disappearances of Wiley and Bass plus the Launch Spires activation can only mean the Wiley is in charge of Lunar Fortress now."
"So what do we do now, Domon?" Dr. Light asked his old friend.
"Simple Me and Rock go up there and stop Wiley's plan before the earth goes to hell in a hand basket." Came a very familiar voice.
"Proto?" was Rock's surprised answer.
"Yes, it is in the GDF's best interest to send Proto Man and Mega Man up to Lunar Fortress and stop Wiley." General Iron responded calmly.
"What are we waiting for then?" Proto asked to them all. This was going to be a mission like no other. 'Guess you better be careful for what you wish for sometimes.' Was Rock thought on the ordeal ahead.
RedDragon: Well this is getting interesting. Old and New faces arrive and a new adventure begins.
Sage Wolf: Exactly
The Dom: It just got a lot more interesting. See you next time.
