Mega Man Inverted Path: Vol 1

by CobaltYT

(All characters belong to Capcom or Archie Comics, with a few exceptions.) Blues and Roll are robot siblings created by Dr. Light. What happens to their in-progress robot brother, Rock? And who is the one who attacks the city? Find out here, in Mega Man Inverted Path: Volume 1!

4. Chapter 4: The Rules

While Blues and Roll are still in the lab sweeping, Dr. Light is writing in his notebook.

May 11th, 200X

I never had a wife or children of my own, but Blues and Roll are human-like enough to make up for it.

I can't wait for Rock to be complete. Then it will be a happy family of four. I have been working on him at the same time as Roll, with help from Blues.

I made Blues' AI Age 16, and Roll's 14. I want to make Rock and Roll twins, so Rock will also be 14.

The way AI Ages work is this: the robotic bodies can contain a maximum of certain ages. The body must be smaller or larger depending on the age. Robot Masters can mature and "age", but an adequate body must be built. If a Robot Master reaches their maximum age and wants to keep aging, a new body must be built and the Robot Master's Integrated Circuit must be transferred. If I wanted to, I could change Blues' AI Age to a minimum of 11 or a maximum of 20. No Robot Master can get a smaller body to age in reverse. If I wanted to make Blues 21 years of age, I would have to create a new body.

These rules of robotics apply to all Robot Masters, present and future.

More advanced robotics hold great promise, but also great potential for danger. If a Robot Master were to break any of the 3 Laws of Robotics, A robot must not harm a human being, a robot must obey orders given by humans, and a robot must protect itself, great danger would fall upon the world.

I am sincerely hoping that no calamity happens
