How do you know my nam-
Mega Man...?
You may not be Mega Man, but you certainly fit the part as the Blue Bomber. Even if you are just a cheap imitation. Tell me...to which doctor does your allegiance lie?
...
Pathetic. Tell me...was the original Mega Man this weak?
Oh and for your answer, 3. I must say I'm disappointed...
You don't even know who I am.
The fact is that I'm none of the things you think I am.
I was never kind hearted because I was never built to be.
I was never a fool because I will claim what is rightfully mine! Both my Rollexs and my revenge against the human race are at stake!
The fact is C.X. that you're not the droid I remember.
The C.X. I know would have killed me long ago because the Mega Man I know would have beat me long ago. But you're not Mega Man, are you?
And the fact that you made them look like Wood Man, the one brother that I could never find, proves your lack of knowledge.
Hyah!
Well, thankfully he was the least mangled out of all of them besides you, so I can certainly repair him...
...but I don't think I can say the same for your other four brothers.
Torch and Blade...they're certainly not beyond my abilities, but it'd take months, even without taking Wave's repair time into account.
With Oil, I'd pretty much have to build him from the ground up, and I'm from a world beyond that of I.C. Chips. Trying to figure out his proportions from that would be like deciphering alien technology.
And Bit...
...Revolt Bit was lucky any of his body was still intact. What little he still has appears to be his I.C. Chip, but it'd take a miracle even for a scientist experienced with his line of robots to repair that alone.
Hey, Doc, don't worry about it. Like I said, you're not the only person I know who has the smarts to help me with this.
I think I know who to call first.
Hello? Is this Ms...
...actually, I don't think I ever caught your last name. Can you help me out with something, Rika?
FOOL! YOU NO LONGER SPEAK WITH THE ENTITY BY THE NAME OF "DEFTEROS!"
...What foolishly pointless questions to ask me. First off, an assassin doesn't take jobs to kill themselves. That's not how assassins work. And even then, we take jobs as long as we will be paid. And you can't be paid if you're dead. So, taking such a job would go against the Assassin's Code.
As for taking on a task to kill things that don't exist... I have repercussions for those who try to trick me. And furthermore... I have a list that details every single living entity in every single universe and dimension. I would know if someone I was hired to kill didn't exist.
Hahahahaha... It's working! IT'S WORKING!
Well, of COURSE it's working! I was helping!
Yes, yes... Your assistance in this has been rather valuable, Albert.
As it should! Now... Let us awaken our new creation!
Alright, our little Badnik Master... State your name and your purpose.
...MY NAME IS ORCHEGGSTRA. PURPOSE: DESTROY ALL VERSIONS OF SONIC THE HEDGEHOG AND MEGA MAN.
A complete success!
But, of course! We are both complete geniuses, after all!
Indeed... But our brilliant brains are needed elsewhere, correct?
Yes, of course... We need to rebuild my brilliant Badniks... And you need your Robot Masters repaired as well, correct?
Indeed... Each and every single one of them was destroyed trying to stop a horde of rampaging robots who seemed an awful lot like Proto Man... I would've been doomed myself, if a strange army of multi-colored Metalls didn't swoop in destroying them...
Well, then... I suppose we've got work to do.
Thanks again, Rika. I really appreciate it.
Hey, it's the least I could do!
I'm just glad I can put my engineering skills to use again.
Stupid kappa thinking they can take my job...
Now, about Oil...
...you can't figure him out, can you?
Nope. I'm more knowledgeable on IC Chips than Doppler, but he's pretty close to gone.
...well, not THAT close, considering what you showed me of Revolt Bit.Yikes.
Can you at least give me some pointers about Oil? My options are already narrowing...
Either you have to find one of the greatest scientists in the world...
...or you're gonna need a little magic. Literally.
Heck, even with Torch and Blade, I'm gonna have to give a few personal touches to get them in good shape.
It'll be worth it, though. They're gonna get flower and Rho makeovers!
..."Rho"?
Well, you know how some things are called HAL to be a letter ahead of IBM?
When I'm done, one of your bros will be a letter ahead of Sigma!
Oh. Uh, not that Sigma. It's a mech I made some time ago.
*sigh* I guess if I want Oil fixed, I'll have to make a deal with the devil.
It's quite astounding, really. They went through a whole villain arc worth of time without remembering these Medallions serve a secondary purpose.
Now, the others...
...of course. They must have been scattered amist the commotion when fighting Jazz at his strongest.
I'm fine with adjusting my plans a bit...
Ah, one more thing...
Good. I'm not about to let my brothers or myself make the same mistake that the pongaks and those infected space robots made when looking for the Grand Stars.
Wood.
A Zier daring to challenge me. ME.
Well...It's time I teach you some respect. As soon as I get out of this box of course...
...
You truly needn't more time trying to upgrade me. I am now as powerful as can be.
..Huh. your voice is back to normal.
Indeed. Now, if I may ask, do you have any idea what may be next for us?
Wait, your scar can talk?
Right, this is the first time you've heard him in person. Yeah, he can talk.
Since you are sentient, wouldn't it be appropriate to give you a name?
*Ahem.*
Oh yeah, now's not the time.
No doubt that Anthem guy will be back with more friends of his.
Huh, almost forgot about that A-hole. When we fought, I felt this overwhelming vibe from him... the sheer physical power behind his punches was astonishing. And it's not like he was that slow, either.
And if his buddies are as capable as him, we may be in for some deep
.
I believe I have a plan.
You do?
Affirmative. I know of this 'Anthem' person much better than you may think... even down to his bitter past.
....I think we should hear him out.
....
Eh. Why not?
