I get the main role because I'm the best! Bow to Lord Wily!
I know you're my creator and all, but your bark doesn't exactly match your bite....
Incredible! Lord Punk's speed is simply amazing! How am I supposed to catch up with THAT?!
It's a wonder I've kept you alive this long, with that voice of yours. In fact, you're a Mecha. How can you even program like a normal robot?
You've been out of the loop, Proto Man! Didn't you know that science is advancing, and now even Mechas could handle advanced programming?!
The times are changing, huh....It's been so long, since my day of birth....
Back in the days of the dinosaurs, eh?
That's enough out of you, spring head.
Actually, that was my father's name. Please call me-
HOW RUDE! I demand you to pick me up, and carry me like the lowlife you are!!
Shut up! DID YOU NOT NOTICE WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF A VERY COLD PLACE, THE MOST LIKELY PLACE FOR AN AVALANCHE!
Run, run, run, RUN!
T-this wave! I'm not sure if I'm going to make this!
What is this place? It seems....Ancient....
This mural...If I'm not wrong, those were the ancient people.
There they are, worshipping celestial beings...But!
What is that? A god of some sort? Wait, on the side....Duo! It seems he's saving the people....From rule? But, there's two Duos....Could that be the evil one who brought the Evil Energy here.....
Wait, two?! The evil Duo.....He used to work with Duo...And the Master can take over hearts.....And that being standing on the pyramid....It makes sense...All of it.
The Duo that was evil...He wasn't acting of his own accord, was he? He was infected by that Master....And they managed to defeat the Master, and took the energy source it wanted....But the other Duo was convinced to bring it back...Because he must have had a shred of evil within him...
That flash! Where is it coming from? Wait, over there! Wait, is it?...Yes! It's the starforce!
A Explode star, eh? *Proto Man puts in the star*
Strange...I saw how Mega Man and Bass were struggling with this,....but this star almost FEELS....Right....It must be something with my core...Or I could be inching closer to death....
Nothing of the future! What matters now is the present....And last time I checked, I have a spiked ball to take care of....But there's two units next to him...It'd be better if I waited and see if they could handle him without me....I'm still not too sure WHO I can trust...
You think we should help Skull Man and Drill Man?
They managed to beat him before, so we won't need to worry.
Man, I wish there could be something we can do to help... everyone's scattered around everywhere and are in no danger. Enker is off doing who-knows-what, TOPHOUND is fighting Top Man, Roll, and some of the HWN Hunters, Punk is fighting Drill Man and Skull Man, ...There seems to be no major threat.
I don't know, Bt Man... Someone could become under the unknown Master's control at this moment...
(Shadow Man stops walking and Heat Man is in a tube. Suddenly, Heat Man's eyes open, and then both of the robots' eyes glow red)
Oh, this quiz is so exciting! Of course, I'm going to win the "Best original Robot Master"!
well, who cares? time doesn't go the way you want it to... y'know?
Not one vote....Man...There's only one way to drown my sorrows....
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMBS WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!
Oh, don't tell me. You're about to go explode crazy, are you Bomb Man and Napalm Man?
Boo! Did I scare anyone? No? Well, I guess I'll just stick to cutting those strings.....
I AIN'T SCARED OF YOU TWO!
Sadly, we need to find a way to defuse Napalm Man's bombs. Maybe the Magnet Missle can short circuit them.
You can's stop us! BOMBS!!!
Hey, Explode-types! Bomb party!
Oh, boy.
So....Any room for Robots who can use Bombs? Eh?
Like me, right guys?!
c'mon!
Wait, where was I during all this? Why wasn't I invited to the Bombs party?
Hello Guys, see you're having a party here, can I come in?
I'm To- I mean Crash Man
And it's-a me! The Killer Bullet!

OH, COME ON, YOU INVITED PROT- I mean, who is this Mega and Top you talk about?

LIES!
Why wasn't I invited? I can detonate my drills naturally!
Haha, we finally got rid of that pesky Mega Man! Now we'll destroy him together!....I mean, I'm Proto Man.

Fine, I'm not Proto Man! But hey, don't you want revenge on Mega Man for Bustering you all up? I like to blow things up too.....


Fine, kick me out of this stupid club! I don't need it to destroy Mega Man!
I'm so lonely. Wait a second!...........
Hello gents, I'm Ba-Er Forte! I like to blow things up!
*Comes in with all the original robot masters, along with Time Man and Oil Man and except for Bomb Man* Game over, explode-types! Quickly, everyone
...Huh? Where are we?
We're outside the Bomb Party's location. We were disabled... Who fixed us up?
...Sargent Man!?
Now let's deactivate some explosives
BOMBS!!!
We're trapped!
We need to use Magnet Missile to deactivate those explosives!
You have to get through me first!
That can be arranged.
Here, I'll hold off Ballade!
Get out safely, Ok? Don't overexert yourself!
I've been hit! Continue without me!
This is perfect! Say goodbye, Blue Bomber!
Bass?! I won't let you destroy these guys!
Sorry bout that...*Gives Guts an E-tank* We'll finish this on the last floor....
We just wanted to party...
Laying enough bombs on the ground to destroy the entire city is NO way to party.
And hey! Who said I didn't like parties?
...I have an idea that solves ALL problems...
(Bomb Man throws his bombs in the air, with Sargent Man's Dive Missiles locking on to them and launching,
This was a great idea! Everyone is having a pretty good time!
What did I tell you? It was a pretty good idea.
One simple little mission....And I screwed up...
No matter...It wasn't Proto Man...And you didn't have any starforce with you...Our next plan however.....
(Teleports into a mysterious area. Heat Man comes in after his does.)
The Master said to work with you.
The same to me as well. He also warned me that he may have bumped up your confidence a little too much, and to ensure that doesn't end up with us being scrapped. Now, here's the Master's plans...
By the way, any case you can rebuild Retro Pikachu?
Actually, he may not have noticed, but when Bt Man randomly destroyed my robot and some of the lab- which, by the way, took a while to repair- I was unable to find Retro Pikachu's data... or yours. And I didn't make the back-up data, either...
You know what, that's alright. He would be a help in this so we can get back to doing evil things faster, but we still have many other robot masters. Maybe the others would even finish building before-
...Was that-
Wh-what is going on here!?
Shadow Man and Heat Man! Of ALL the robots who dared to betray me-
This is the most biggest way of betrayal? Enker actually had the biggest betrayal on you. Be lucky it isn't Bass who betrayed you to follow commands of the Master.
Ugh... Who... who IS your master?
...Oh. He's serious.
Look, you fool.
(Thinking to himself...?) ...Fool? Since when am I a fool... and since when did Heat Man got the courage to say something like that?
The only person you can get that information from is the Master himself, because nobody is that knowledgeable-
Or foolish-
To be able to say so. Not even Enker would do such a thing. So your wasting your breath.
Now, enough of this. Let's knock him out and continue on with the plan. (Knocks Ninja Man out with a chop and the two robots kidnap Wily)
I can't believe you would do such a thing like this!
Grr... I'd get him quiet, but something is stopping me from knocking this fool out.
So, what exactly do you plan to do with me anyway? After all, you two simpletons couldn't even stop Mega Man, let alone-
Wily, you're lucky I still have some sort of respect for you. If not, you'd be laying in a ditch somewhere.
Shadow Man! Shut up with all that racket and continue the mission!
Don't forget, you overgrown lighter, it is I that commands you! After all, I'm the only one with previous ties to our savior.
Whatever.....Sir.
Why you, how could you two do this?! Heat Man, you can't really go through with this! You were one of my firsts! I promise you, my other robots will take care of you!
First off, we're LEAGUES above those DOS-using slow-pokes! Second, they're ALL busy with that Top-Clone!
Hoho...Not all of them...
Even then, only Bass could provide a chance!
Great! A response....WAHAHAAHHAHAHA!
Great ghosts of Ford, you sent out a distress signal?! Shadow Man, be prepared!
Don't worry, my kunai can keep any fools away. It's right he-IT'S NOT THERE?! It was there a minute ago! No robot could possibly sneak past me!
Hoho..That's where you're wrong. I had a trump card with me all this time!
Come out with your hands out! Don't try anything, cause we can catch you if you move an INCH.
Catch me? Maybe in your dreams!
No...It can't be!
I tried to come as fast as I could, doc...I hope I wasn't late!
My old rival....Quick Man.
You recognize me, old buddy! Don't worry, my chest healed....AFTER you decided to throw your little fun Shadow Blade at me.
Maybe I should've kept it there, since you were too stuck to Wily's orders and not Ra Moon!
Please, that thing was ancient! You of all people should how to move forward. Or at least sneak your way there. Savoir faire, my friend.
Hmm....I'll stick with staying in the shadows....Maybe you lost to Mega Man because you decided to light everything up with all those lasers?
I only lost because Mega Man just had to take Flash's weapon before he fought me!
Right now, I don't have Flash's weapon....So when you lose to me, you'll have no excuses for why you lost.
Come at me, you overgrown pretender in pajamas!
Ditto, you ungraceful ronin!
I think I'm going to run away now....
That does it for both of those slow-pokes!
Ah ah, you cannot "catch" a Shadow.
That duplicate trick, eh? Even I didn't see that one.
With my increased understanding and power, also comes with new AND improved tricks!
None of those things mean anything if you can't touch me!
Put the boomerang where your mouth is and show me claims to those bluffs! Fight me, you out-dated calculator!
Heh, I guess some ninjas just can't handle the truth....Nor the speed! Let's go, you traitorous UFO Ninja...Thing!
Ugh... that was harsh... good thing I had that E-tank. I had enough of this. I am done with my break... And I am done with this Master foolishness. I will find him... and ensure that not even his core and data can be found! But first, and I hate this... I need some assistance.
Ok, I understand you want him defeated-
Correction: I want him DESTROYED. For what he did to my fellow Wily Bots... Especially Retro Pikachu.
...But I don't even know where to begin.
If we are lucky enough... Maybe we can have a plan.
I already have one. We just need a few others. Alright, here's the plan...
I knew you'd be slow, but this is just simply too slow for my tastes!
And I knew you'd be weak, but this is too weak for my tastes!
You're really starting to get on my nerves!
Stop with the taunts and give up!
Charging at me with the same moves? Pathetic!
He...He disappeared! He's not a skilled ninja, he can't disappear from thin air like that!
Not disappeared, you numb-skull!
I'm just moving so fast....To the point your electronic brain can't even catch up!
Not too shabby, if I say so myself! Nice little after-image technique I got, eh?
Nice, nice! You've actually managed to surprise me! Show me some more!
If you say so! I'll knock the blade off your cocky face!
Which after-image is the real thing?!
Hmph! I'll have to hit ONE of you eventually! Duplicate!
Found you! As for my next trick!
I'm twice as strong now, which means twice the tricks!
Come on Shadow Man! Easy-peasy! Show me your REAL moves! None of this stage changing crap!
And the victory.....Goes to Shadow Man. Now, as for you, destiny has not been so kind.
damn you! How could you betray Wily and your brothers like this?! Don't you have any sense?!
That's all in the past. Trust me, I've been given a new sense to see the world in a...Different way. Of course, I've always seen it that way, "brother."
Wait....That last part....You've never been on our side on the first place! I thought you were one of us, you wanted to change that alien origin of yours! Shadow Man, please listen!
Your pleas....Fall on deaf ears.
Heh...To think I ever stood a chance against you...
Yes, that was rather foolhardy, wasn't it? Thankfully for you, you won't live long enough to regret it.
So, before I die....Were you ALWAYS planning this?
Alright....Denying a last wish like that would simply be too cruel for my tastes.
It all started hundred of years ago...I, Shadow Man, was the leader of a unit known as the Kuiper Droids.
We faithfully served the Stardroids. Our latest mission was to escort a doomsday weapon, known as Ra Moon, to Earth. Earth was known throughout the galaxy as the blue pearl, and any galactic empire wanted to control it. The only to take action was-
The Stardroids, eh? No wonder we're always under attack by aliens....
Right, right. However, our unit was attacked by the Star Marshals, notably being lead by Duo. He attacked our group with that Evil Energy robot and three other similar robots, and took out everyone EXCEPT me and the Stardroids.
Duo continued to wage war with the Stardroids while Ra Moon and I escaped. While he was fighting, the EER was hot on our tails. However, something miraculous happened. He came up to me, and said the words I'll never forget...
"Do not be afraid, I believe in the same cause as you. Ra Moon is substantial to taking over the pearl, according to my Master. Go and make sure no harm comes to Ra Moon, I'll make up an excuse for my "superior". However, you now own me a favor."
I landed on Earth, and served as your brother for many years. However, recently, an associate of his contacted me. It was time to return the favor, starting with kidnapping perhaps the smartest mind on our world.....Dr. Wily!
What a boring story! Eh, not really fit for a last one. So, I'll hold off on dying until you come up with a better one.
What?! What are you speaking of?! You can't possibly imagine surviving THIS!
By the way, afterimage.
He disappeared...Surely, you are a better robot than I, Quick Man....
Gah!
I have failed...I'm not fit to live...Quick Man, finish me with your blade.
Heh. I may hate you, but you're still my brother. Come back to our side Shadow Man.
What?! You couldn't actually think of recruiting me back...After what I've done!
Families forgive each other. We are no different. Tell me, does this Master care if you live or die? Does he think of you as family?
You...Are you being serious?
I haven't been more serious in my life.
To once again...Be called "Brother"...
I promise you I'll fight with you from now on.
I'm glad to have you back on our side, now how about we find the Doc?
I'm fine with that.
Where could he be an-Look out!
Quick Man!
That's what you get....
Shadow!
Hahaha! Shadow Man, you should've known betraying the Master results in consequences! Anyway, no need to use this reanimated corpse of a body.
Shadow...I'll..Be fine...I've been through worst...Member when you threw...That blade at me?
Quick Man...I suppose you will. *Puts up a smirk, although quite fake* I'm sure...You'll be fine.
Heh...Always so hopeful....Get him for me.
Why so sad, my faithful betrayer? Didn't you want to kill him a minute ago? I guess when you've seen death as much as I have, you can't really feel anything at these sappy scenes...
Anyway...Come at me! Surely you feel saddened at your friend's loss!
You monster! I'll crush you...For Quick Man!
Come, come! That really can't be your best!
(Grr...No matter what I try, it seems he can predict all my movements!)
I haven't had to dirty my hands in 100 years! Usually I just control someone else to do it!
Excuse me, but is that yours? I hope it's yours, or else you don't need it. I'll just keep it there for now.
You cocky...Your bark is worst than that bite of yours!(Too bad I happen to be trapped...
I'm disappointed in you, Shadow. When you own me a favor, you OWN me a favor. Ah, what can I expect from one of his lackeys? He always was so terrible with minions, especially those unruly Stardroids of his...
It'll take a miracle at this point...I'd take anything right now...
Poses!
Turbo!
Stone! Haha!
Sssnake?
Hard....
Crash!!
Woah...
That was...Unexpected. I never liked surprises, nor jokes.
Who ya calling a joke, bub?! Show him that team-spirit!
Wait, brothers! You have no idea who you're fighting!
Now who is it?!
You six, help Shadow Man get out! Shadow Man, take out his link, Heat Man! You're the only one who can stop him before my distraction's up!
Got it!
Shadow Blade!
Who do you think you are, attacking me?! Wait....My link!
Shadow Man! Although the parting hurts.....Go, and protect Wily with your life!
That's your job! Get away and live for the future with us!
Heh....Always so hopeful...I did my part, and it's too late to turn back now....All of you, live for me!
Hey, Shadow?
Yes?
We've been talking for a while, and....We're going to leave you here.
No! Quick Man's last wish was for me to swear my life to Wily's safety!
Fine by me, you don't know what dangers we can expect.
Just don't get all sappy on me.
Weren't you crying 5 minutes ago?
He was the best rival I could ever have....
Yaaaaaawn....Ugh, I can't remember anything...
Quick Man sacrificed himself for my survival.
What?! But....He was our leader!
Don't get so worked up, you're banged up as it is. Listen, Flash and Metal are back at your place, they'll help you.
Alright, let's head back and find Wily. He can't be TOO far...
There you bumbling idiots are! Where's Quick Man?!
I'm afraid....We have lost him.
Oh, that's....Unfortunate. That's to be expected however.
Alright, let's head inside Wily Castle!
No! All my Mechas are haywire in there! They're tearing everything apart! At this rate, only my secret baseme-Errr nothing will be left!
Then we're done. Blammo. No where to go.
We could go to Light Labs!
Nope, that place is done for.
Guys-
Let's go to Top Man's party pad! He throws great parties!
No! That guy took my identity, remember?!*
Guys, Dr. Light isn't the only-
Gravity Man, we're speaking. Hush up.
Actually, he has a point.
Wait, what did he say, Dr?
As much as he hates me, AND the feeling is mutual.....We have to head to Mikhail's.
Whatever you wish, doctor. I will personally ensure that if he or ANY of his bots lay a hand on you, they will get to experience the darker side of the world....The shadows!
What a coincidence! We were going there anyway to beat up Skull Man, that evil-doer.
Look who's speaking! We work for Dr. Wily, a renowned criminal!
That's different!
Are you sure he's still there?
Have I ever been wrong?
No, you're ne-
Plenty. You thought we were getting a show, you were wrong about that waterfall, or "forest", we always lose battles because of your misjudgments!
Yeah, but I-.....Shut up and go.
Are we still sure he's the bad guy?
For the last time.....THE MAN....WEARS....SKULLS!
Good enough for me.
Ah, it seems my repairs are working!
Thanks, Mr. Cossack! That Ring Man of yours really does hit hard!
Meh. I've seen bigger bangs.
It seems those robots we brought aren't here anymore....We'll head back to Light Labs then....
I must say to you three, thank you for bringing me those supplies!
It's fine, Dr. Cossack. Anything.....To out-do our competition! We'll show SOAKSTGR...
Not to mess with our missions!
What's the matter, Spinstrike? Loss of words?
Don't get too exited, Gyro Man. If they want to fight, we'd end up getting beaten when not ready if we do.
I tell you, that Quint is gonna get himself killed...
Good riddance. He was toxic to the group.
He's like a brother to me. All the Killers are. I don't expect you to understand-
That fight took more out of me than I thought...I think we could use some repairs.
Not a bad idea.
.......Only robots in Dr. Cossack's lab are some Light bots, so how about there?
What do you think they'll think when he sees me? After charging that Ballade cracker when fighting Quint, I'm afraid my core might be unstable, and I want to avoid any misunderstandings.
..........Looks like Light Labs is also full...
.........Wily's lab is-wait.....what the heck? There's a bunch of mechas fighting each other and making a mess of everything! We gotta stop them!
You want to avoid misunderstandings, but utter chaos is just fine? Plus, what if there are other robots? I doubt they'll give us a warm welcome.
Whether you like it or not, Wily is my master, and it's my duty to protect his lab. You don't have to come with me, but I HAVE to do this!
I can't let you do that alone, not after you saved us. That may not have been your intention, but I trust you more than the other Killers.
Anyone else?
I'm sorry, Pharaoh, but I have no reason to trust him, not even if you do. Plug? What about you?
What does Dust Man say?
Hi, Pharaoh Man! Want some rocks? I just swallowed them, so I could probably spit them back up-
Um, no thanks, Dust Man. Listen, Ballade and I want to head to Wily's lab for repairs, which is something you could probably use, too. Will you come with us?
Nope! Thanks for offering, though!
R...really? Why not?
I think Bright Man is right. As trustworthy as he may seem, you never know when your closest ally might be hiding something deep underneath. Besides, me and Bright Man go way ba-
Yes, we know. *sigh* What will you do then?
Eat! Rocks and bones as far as the eye can see!
He's got Plug Man and me. Don't worry.
Um....thanks.....C...could you...?
Oh! Right.
Now that everything's settled-
more or less....Shall we, Pharaoh Man?
Let's go.
I'm bored.
Quiet, you! We need to be ready to fight when they do!
They look like they don't want to fight anymore, so I think we're done.
Look, Wind Man. What do you want to do, teleport to the Master's location, try to go ahead and destroy him, and leave!? That's just a foolish thing to do!
So, you said you have a plan since one of the other ones didn't work. What exactly IS that plan?
We wing it.
(Stops) Woah, woah, woah! We're gonna WING IT!? THAT'S your brilliant idea!?
So I suppose YOU have better plans?
Well, no... But maybe the Light Bots can help?
...Fine, go get your friendly Light bots, but I'm staying here.
Glad we can agree on something. I'll be back! (Teleports out)
What’s our status?
They’ve got us pinned down, boss! Er—no pun intended…
There are simply too many of them. I suggest we fall back.
Too many? Pah! Step aside, cowards!
Sir, I don’t—Sir!
There he is!
Ribbit! Blast him, quickly!
I’ve got him in my sights!
Show no quarter, friends!
Heh…you fools have no idea who you’re dealing with, do you? Let’s see how you handle my true power!
Top…
Spi-oof!
Got ‘im!
