Beta Z and Ninja Z takes a step back as the drill starts digging, steering clear of the debris.

Woah. Off they go, then.
Indeed... I wonder where they're off to.
...Wanna follow them and find out?
I think we'll just catch up to them later... First, I want to take care of a slight problem...

---

*...Meanwhile, back in Ninja Ghost's Retirement Home in Space...*

*Pacing back and forth in a worried manner* ...
...Still trying to figure out Jazz's goals, huh?
Yes... Just what exactly does Jazz want out of us if MKII wins? What is he after...?
Honestly, Reaper, If you want MY opinion, I think you should just stop worrying about it. I mean... Look at Prototype's health in comparison to MKII's. I don't think MKII is going to out-tank him anytime soon.
That's what worries me more... If the two of us know it, more than likely Jazz knows it, too, meaning he probably has a plan to counter that. ...And MKII himself I feel would be no less of a genius of villainous planning. If either ONE of them has anything up their sleeves, then...

...Yeah, that's great, but can you stop focusing on that and help us out with something?
WHAT THE- How did you get up here!?
We teleported. Your place didn't have any sort of method of preventing us from doing so.
Just be glad we're only here to speak with Shadow here. We still remember what you did to us, you know.
Oh look, using my actual name for once. What development. What do you want, anyways?
Well, you know how these guys ask for identification, correct? Well, we were hoping you could help us get some kind of ID card or something by pretending to be our creator.
I am your creator.
What he MEANS is, we need you to pretend to be a robotics scientist so that we can be given identities to pass off as "new" robots. That way, we won't have to worry about getting into any legal troubles.
Look, I've got enough to worry about as is. I don't exactly have the time right now to find the nearest security department and get you guys ID'd. If you really don't want to get into any trouble with the law enforcement, I'd recommend leaving the roleplay.
What, and be forgotten again? Not this time.
Just help them with the identification papers or whatever. It'll help get your mind off of Jazz. And get you out of my personal retirement home.
Ghost, I already told them, I wouldn't be helping them with anything until everyone from back when I was called "Reaper" stops calling me by that outdated na-
You might as well go ahead and go back on your word, because that'll never happen! You wanna know why? Not because neither me nor Jazz respects you- even though that's true- but because YOU'RE NEVER GOING TO ING FIND THE ORIGINAL ROTOM! I've been telling you this for MONTHS now, and you just won't listen! You're constantly worried that he's "out to get you" when he most likely no longer exists! Even his OWN ing Reaper has no idea where he is, so it's likely as sign that he may as well be DEAD! SO STOP WORRYING ABOUT IT AND HELP BETA AND NINJA Z!
...I, uh-

GET OUT! ALL THREE OF YOU, GET OUT OF MY F**KING HOUSE!

*Ninja Ghost chases the other three out of his space house...*

(In ANY case... If you’re so concerned about it, then tell me. Are you really trying to help the situation? Or is that leader of yours dragging you into these things for his own selfish needs? Because, trust me, I know an egomaniac when I see one.)
(Well, it helps that you look yourself in the mirror every day.)

@RedBomber :

Oh, please. You’re hopeless, Prototype... Given your track record, you may as well be prepared to die... Again, anyways.

Hey, leave him be! Sure, he might’ve had his ups and downs, but I have faith that he can win! And besides, you BOTH are too confident for your own good. Pride comes before the fall.

Don’t waste your breath, Reaper. After all, Prototype appears to have his own layer of cockiness... The only difference is, he’s using that confidence to hide his fear. THAT is what will prove to be his downfall.

That’s fine... I’ll just need to have enough hope to cover us both.

(A-as for us... W-well...)
(The truth is, the three of us are actually supposed to be, in accordance to the law, retired. Honestly, we’re probably going to be fined doing this fight in the first place... But it WAS rash decisions that Treble makes like THIS one that made us retired in the first place.)
(HEY, DON’T JUST TELL THEM THAT! You’re embarrassing all THREE of us here!)
(...*Sigh* But, yes. Under the word of the law, the three of us are supposed to be retired... Which, even THAT shows just how little those police bots are actually “helping” in the situation. It’s no WONDER they need the academy to capture criminals for them.)
(As for why the Academy isn’t doing anything... Truth of the matter is, they are. While many of them are out trying to help those affected by what’s going on, as well as taking down as many criminals as possible... There is... ONE team... who’s actually doing their best to get to the bottom of what’s going on... And they’re the best of the best, so...)
(It’s actually what had Rush suggest this whole thing in the first place... Beat has his “Airlines” to help those trying to handle significant happenings, while I made this Bootcamp to help others prepare for said happenings. Rush says it’s the only thing we can... legally do to do our part in helping out.)
(...Though, what a Costume Shop is doing to help, I have no idea.)
(Hey, it doesn’t hurt to be stylish while saving the world!)

(Treble, attacking robots who had nothing to do with what’s going on isn’t going to solve anything!)
(WELL NEITHER IS SITTING AROUND PLAYING SHOPKEEP! You want to quit the battle so bad, then FINE. But these guys need to learn... That their blatant ARROGANCE has consequences.)

Chemical Man steps up the (BC) Blizzard Attack.

...Yep. He stepped on it. Because you’ve collected so many items and haven’t even used a single one, you are out of item space. You probably would’ve picked it up if you had Universal Man get it instead, but that’s out of the question now. I guess I should also mention that, since BBA Proto Man also has a held item, you can’t pick that up, either.

(HARSH!? Who cares if I’m being “harsh”!? Bad guys or not, NO amount of “good intentions” is going to excuse the fact that many robots could’ve DIED because of whatever you did!)
(Treble, you have to admit, you’ve been rather... on edge since this whole “rise in criminal activity” thing had begun...)
(Of COURSE I am on edge! Aren’t YOU!? Criminal activity has been getting worse and worse because of whatever’s happening out there, and despite the reassurance from those Fake Man robots, they’re doing -all to fix it!)

(Rush, call up Beat and tell them to get over here as quick as possible. It’s time to assemble Team RBT.)

---

@RedBomber:



I feel like the appropriate question would be, what is Jazz up to?

Now, why would you think I am up to anything? I simply wish to let MKII prove his superiority over his “replacement”, is all.

Do NOT try and play the innocent card. I KNOW you’re planning something with all of this. And I WILL figure it out.

Oh, please. Even if I am up to something, it is too late to stop it anyways.

Not if Team Prototype wins.

...Hmph. You have no idea how close I was to laughing at your horrible joke...

@GammaGhost : Honestly, I think you have a bit of a point, trying to go for a story rather than letting everyone do their own thing. It kinda keeps a sense of order and prevents too much from happening at once. (Though, I wouldn't exactly object to the "whatever-they-wish" side of things, either. Perhaps for a different roleplay...)

Though, if we DO go for a story-like element, I would like to retire Sergeant Man Z (not right now, but some time before the DnD aspect begins), since I feel his active story arc would likely interfere with the plot. Beta Z and Ninja Z will stay, though. Not like I was doing anything else with them beforehand... Having an actual story for them to follow would give them something to do than simply... Exist (citation needed).

@RedBomber, RotomSlashBlast, and (assumingly) Inconspicuous User :

(I see I have myself my first visitors... Welcome to the Bootcamp. So... What can I help you with?)

@GammaGhost:

It would appear that, due to the fact that Met Cover doesn’t change the fact that an enemy Metall is in the way (and, additionally, you cannot move through enemies), Vat Man can only move 1 space to the right.
