CHAPTER TWO: The chosen one.
+++++
Planet Mercury inhabits two separate species, The Knovadians and Mercurytes. But how?
The Knovadians once inhabited a dwarf planet that was dying slowly.
Mercury, inhabited by the Mercurytes, was at the verge of colonisation as they were loosing an ongoing war against another larger planet in the solar system.
The Knovadians took this to their advantage, making a forever deal with the Mercurytes to help them fight the war. The Knovadians used their advanced tech knowledge to build enormous weapons and the Mercurytes used their magic as a power source. With the combined force, Mercury won the never ending war.
The Mercurytes honored their word and allowed the Knovadians to live in Mercury, together for eternity.
Decades passed and a new King ascended to the throne, KANVATRON. That was when everything changed.
He had a completely different motive towards the Knovadians. He felt, with how much the Knovadians has expanded, they'll take over Mercury. He planned wipe them out completely.
The Knovadians couldn't sit and watch, so they reinforced themselves. This enraged Kanvatron greatly and he sent his army at the Knovadians. The Knovadians retaliated, causing a great war on Mercury.
|MERCURY|
The red part of Mercury belonged to the Mercurytes, while blue part belonged to the Knovadians. The planet was more like the present earth, infrastructural wise.
Today, war raged the Planet just one reason - Dominance. Both races fought against themselves. Dead bodies of both sides congested the battle field, including large beasts, homes destroyed, debris everywhere.
Only one Knovadian warrior was left -Evex- in his yellow armor forged out of Mercury's magma, a chain attached to his sword wrapped around his right arm. Ninety percent of his men had been killed, while the rest captured. His face expressed fatigue and showed how bruised and battered he was, his long orange hair scattered and exposed with no helmet.
He stood before thousands of Mercuryte slodiers, armored and armed with heat powered sabers and a few with laser riffles. The Mercurytes had more advanced technology[stolen] than the Knovadians this time around.
He yelled in a battle cry and ran forward, his sword raised high up.
Thoom!
He leapt with enough force to take him high above all others. He landed and dug his sword into the ground. Everywhere in half a mile radius rattled greatly, before a truculent explosion erupted, obliterating everyone amidst it. Evex stood back up, unscatched.
Zylox appeared in the clouds, over the battle ground, his hands behind him.
“Very thoughtful Nihil. It's been long since i sent anyone to the afterlife”, Zylox smirked.
“Nay Zylox. I brought you here because of that”, Nihil spoke telepathically. Zylox looked down at Evex, who had just slain about a hundred soldiers and proceeded.
“Is this even a fair fight?”, Zylox muttered.
“The Mercurytes and Knovadians once lived in harmony, not until, when Kanvatron became the king of Mercurytes and decided to rule over both species. He corrupted his people -the Mercurytes- with taunting words. But the Knovadians opposed and here we have it”
“Where is Knavatron then?” Zylox asked.
“Right there ”
Zylox's eyes turned plain white and he spotted the 8ft Kanvatron, with a skin that looked like it was made of scales. He was onned in a sleeveless blue armor and he had red eyes that would make one tremble under his gaze. One thing though, he was invisible to everyone else.
“Coward”, Zylox frowned. With a wave of his hand, Kanvatron became visible. He folded his palms and Kanvatron began to choke as his life force slowly eluded him.
“Stop it!...”, Nihil yelled and Zylox obeyed.
“...this was bound to happen, we only need the warrior” He added.
*****
Evex side stepped to dodge a sword slash and kicked the soldier away. More closed in on him. He loosened the chain around his arm and skill fully spun his sword, slashing through multiple soldiers, killing them at an instant. He held onto the hilt of his bloody sword and leapt, but never came back down as he disappeared in a glow of light.
+
|NEAR VENUS's ORBIT|
Evex appeared and landed abruptly on an asteroid, the size of a football field. He stood up to see Zylox standing before him. He quickly tightened the grip on his sword.
“Who are you? Where am i?”
“Evex, King of the Knovadian race. I am Zylox, the last Energod ”
Evex's eyes widened, “No way!”
“Seems I'm known around these parts also”, Zylox smiled.
“Wh...why did you bring me here?”, Evex stammered still not letting go of his sword.
+
“You believe i am the chosen one?”, Evex asked, after being debriefed.
“You possess all the qualities needed to weild it...”, Zylox answered and materialised a black glowing ball in his palm. He handed it over to Evex.
“...This grants you a portion of the force's power, and if you're the right one, you will automatically have full access to it's vast abilities”, he added.
“Thank you”
“Chosen or not, a guardian you were formed to be”, Zylox spoke in Nihil's voice.
“Enjoy it while it lasts”, he said and vanished.
Evex smiled as he stared at the ball in his hands, the black glow reflecting on his healed face. His senses piqued as he heard footsteps getting louder from behind. He turned to see Kanvatron, bringing down his dark sword vertically in an arc. He swiftly held up the ball to block it. The sword banged over the ball, causing a small crack round it. Kanvatron raised his sword aloft to strike again, but got repelled by an energy field that erupted around Evex.
The repulsion sent Kanvatron twirling back, so he struck the asteroid with his sword to maintain balance. Cracks began to emanate round the asteroid. In no time, the asteroid shattered into large rocks.
Kanvatron smirked and waved his sword forward, releasing a wave of dark energy towards the latter.
Evex pushed the ball forth to shield himself. The force of the dark energy struck the ball, expanding the crack on it. The Impact almost made Evex loose his grip on the ball as his hands became feeble. Then he got hit and was shot far back, into deep space along with an asteroid rock. As he traveled at a blurring speed, the ball glued tightly to his chest. He could see some amount of energy sip out of the cracks in the ball and swirled into the asteroid rock, covering it in black hue.

¶ MEGAMAN¶CHAPTER THREE: The unexpected.+++++ EARTH |CENTRAL CITY||MERRICK MEDICAL CENTER|On the roof of the highrise medical building, three people came out through the elevator - a man, a woman, and a four year old boy. The man was in a white lab coat with a stethoscope hung around his shoulders. The woman wore a blue gown and held the boy's hand as they all walked to an helicopter in front. A man in white shirt and black trousers, hopped down from the helicopter to hug his wife and son.“Are you guys ready?”, the man -Nick Sylvester- asked as he disengaged from the hug.“Err...doctor are you sure it's safe for my baby to stay here?”, she -Kira- asked, facing the doctor.He smiled, “I've told you ma'am, Jake will be fine”“But he's just a day old ”, she complained.“That's why it's necessary that you go to Star city for the scans and tests”, he reminded her.Nick hugged her from behind, “Don't worry hon, it'll be alright”“Bye mum, bye dad”, the little boy -Ralph- waved at
¶ MEGAMAN¶CHAPTER FOUR: A new era for Central city.+++++|One week later||Inside a jewelry store - 09:35pm|The store had a glamouring interior, with glints of golden and silver lights glistering all around. Several cubicles lay around, each carrying different forms of jewelries on them. This made the store exude this aura of 'expensive' and an invisible sign that says 'only the wealthy are welcome'.Well, that was what the place looked like 15 minutes ago. Now it was more or less akin to the look of an 'after party' environment. Uneven shards of glass littered the marbled floor. Almost all the cubicles had been fallen or cut in half, likewise the counter. Most of the bulbs went off, and the functioning ones blinked red over and over. In short, the whole place was in disarray.Bang! Bang!Two shots rang aloud!A tall muscular man by the counter, pushed his open palm forward and fisted it, creating some sort of purple bubble around the two bullets aiming for his chest. He opened hi
¶ MEGAMAN¶CHAPTER FIVE: Misfits no more?+++++The brothers formed a defensive formation, with Ryan at the middle. They didn't move, instead they had their eyes wide open to size up their new opponent.He was donned in a golden trenchcoat that covered his whole appearance. His face was more or less sunk in darkness, under his hood. One could make out that he was a man due to his extravagant muscular build outlined on the coat. He pierced the ground with his sword and left it there.“Who the hell are you!?”, Luke blurted with a mixed expression.Normally, he would have psychically traveled into a recipient's mind and sweep through their basic information, so as to identify their strengths and weakness. But this guy in front of him was blank. No. He couldn't touch his mind. It was like the latter had some sort of psychic block device. It was after much futile attempts he decided to ask the question.The hooded man was about to give a reply, but Sean interrupted abruptly.“Why are you a
¶ MEGAMAN¶CHAPTER SIX: Settlement.+++++|C.C.P.D|“Is Central city safe? Has Central city gotten a new hero to put an end to the prevailing crisis at the hands of the Meteor humans? Is he also a Meteor human?These are the few, out of the many questions pondered by Central city citizens after the unusual incident that took place some hours ago. Sean, Ryan and Luke Watson, or as they like they call themselves – the SRL brothers, were intercepted and beaten to a state of unconsciousness by an unknown man. He was dressed in a long cloak and hood that concealed his identity.Also, he saved the cops just at the nick of time. They were all shaken up a bit due to shock. After speaking with Chief Kayla, she assured that they'll be fine and it was normal for anyone to react like that. Even though she lost some good men, it wasn't going to deter their stand against stopping crimes and protecting the lives of the citizens...”, the male reporter kept debriefing as the officers watched him on a
¶ MEGAMAN¶CHAPTER SEVEN: Taking a step.+++++|Few days later||07:30am|The twilight fog that always descended on the woods at dawn, had began to dessipate, little by little at the rise of the morning sun. The weren't completely gone, their density only got thinner.Birds sang beautifully in symphony to the rise of morning. Aboreal animals, like squirrels and monkeys hopped from tree to tree to bask in the start of a new day.Likewise the land animals. Like a white fluffy bunny that hopped fast like its life depended on it. Well, someone was chasing it. What other choice did it have? The small person chased after it with a malicious intent, cackling evily....That was to the bunny's perception though. In actual sense, a child was running after it, laughing uncontrollably, causing the bunny to be far ahead at intervals. He was about 3ft tall, with a a fair skin and short brown hair. His irises were blue and he had a pointed nose. He was putting on a red top and jeans shorts, accomp
¶ MEGAMAN¶CHAPTER EIGHT: Ralph's life begins.+++++|At the gym||Few blocks from C.C.P.D|Gbam! Gbam!! Gbam!!!Nathan threw his hands one after the other, punching the black sandbag that was attached to the ceiling via a chain. Pedro stood behind it, resting his shoulders against it to hold it in place. They were clad in black tops and grey shorts. He kept punching as they conversed.“Dude! Are you crazy?”, Flynn jokingly asked as he and Marc – dressed the same as Nathan and Pedro – walked in to the dimly illuminated room.“Call me whatever you want. I ain't changing my mind”, Marc replied dropping his gym bag on the table.His eyes swept a quick glance at the room. Various workout equipments laid dumant around the place; ranging from dumb bells to treadmills. It was a gym specially made for the Central city police.“That punk thinks he's so invisible with such flashy showoffs and saves? Such ego!”, he added as he picked up two small dumbbells.“Oh, now he's a punk?”, Flynn raised a
¶ MEGAMAN¶CHAPTER NINE: Who is Cloakman?+++++|Six years later||06:54am|Moving involuntarily at an insane speed, was a man that was bare form waist upward. He kept tumbling in the air, crashing against buildings at intervals. He somehow manoeuvered into a backflip. That didn't stop his motion though. He kept sliding backwards, cracking the asphalt as he did so. Ice crystals layered the path behind him, which soon elongated to a thick wall of ice.Gbim!He struck his back against it, putting him to a halt. The wall had some cracks from the point of contact. He placed his palms on his knees to catch his breath.His skin was pale, like a vampire. Crystals of ice were plastered to his skin. His muscularity was well pronounced. Likewise his silk white hair that draped to the side of his head.His blue eyes widened, the hair at the back of his neck stiffened. He swiftly moved to the side...Boom!The wall of ice exploded to tiny bits, that melted afterwards. Smoke fumed over that spot.
¶ MEGAMAN¶CHAPTER TEN: Accepted.+++++|20 minutes later||The woods|“You're one sharp kid, Ralph”, Flynn commended.“I know. You're not the first to tell me that”, Ralph shrugged.‘Eeesh. It was just a compliment. Proud kid’, Flynn thought.Then he turned to Marc, “Just like looking into a mirror, huh?”Marc, knowing what his partner meant, rolled his eyes.The three of them were seated around the dining table. Ralph had served them cups of juice after they came in. He was quite open with them, since they told him they knew who Cloakman was. He hadn't revealed his powers though but answered every question concerning Cloakman.He and Shane had always admired the Detectives; always eager to watch the news beacause of them, just to see how they investigated and saved lives.Ralph was more into the researching and investigating part, which Shane found to be boring. The latter was more interested in the chases, shoot outs and action in overall.Ralph was beyond happy, even though he did
