We are going to beat you to death.
(Seriously, dude? You're embarrassing us BOTH here! Ugh, do I really have to do this myself...?)
Uh oh. Looks like you're caught with a Burn!
There are many kinds of different status effects one can get. The previously mentioned "Swarm" is one of them, but that's for another time.
When Burned, you will take 2 Flame-Core damage at the end of your every turn. (Meaning that those with a weakness would take 3 damage, while those with a resistance would take only 1.) The only way to reverse a burn is to either reach the stairs and move on to the next floor, or finding and using a Burn Cure.
...Which, I haven't exactly included ANY Cures into the game just yet, so... I think you know your best option here. And it MIGHT require you to use that Super Pellet you've got... You'll need the extra speed. Trust me.



...As for you... I kinda like you. You have a real likable face, you know that? Also, you seem to have a real charming personality.
You're new to the Robot Academy, correct? ...Yeah, I think you'll go far in this business.
...Still, thank you for the save. I'd get out of here myself, but every time I tried, those pesky Big Eyes would just block the path... And to make matters worse, some Electric-core jerkwad fried my teleportation chip! ...E-er, no offense to your friend back there.
*Sigh* Things just aren't as peaceful as they used to be... I'd be careful if I were you... And keep a lookout for anything suspicious.
...Uh... Uhhhhh.........
...Huh. Well, this is interesting... It appears that Big Eye can't seem to attack anyone if there's nobody that is at an odd number's distance away... Perhaps there's a good tactic to use there?
I mean, hey! THIS Big Eye seems absolutely clueless on what to do! Maybe he'll just sit there unsure on his next mo-
...Or he could completely change tactics and go after Laser Joe... That, too, is an option.
















...It appears this dungeon is covered in Oil tiles. Oil tiles will slow down movement speed, making it to where 1 step on Oil costs 4 SPD, rather than the normal 2... Unless you are Earth Core, that is. Also, be careful, The use of Flame Core attacks on or against foes standing on an Oil tile will burn up connected Oil tiles AND deal Flame Core damage to all robots on those tiles.
...Meanwhile, YOU are faced with Water tiles. Water tiles will act like walls to everyone UNLESS you are Water Core. And yes, those with Hover ignores these tiles, as well.
...Now, then. Since you have completed the tutorial, you are now members of the Robot Academy!
...Except... You'll need Team Names to make it official. I shall let you come up with those. Please do that BEFORE travelling to any future dungeons. (@Soren : I believe you already came up with the name "Blue Star"?)
...As well as that, we'll need to talk about your facilities... the Shops.
Auto's and Reggae's Shops 
Kalinka's Storage 
...Aaaaand that's it. For now, anyways... There are more shops to be unlocked along the way, but we haven't exactly reached a point where it would be necessary... Well, except for one of them, but it's something that is unlocked later, anyways... I think you probably know what it is.
And with that... You're on your own. I'll probably leave out some tips and such every now-and-then, but from here on out, you will no longer be following each other to dungeons. ...Unless you happen to pick the same dungeon, anyways. Whether or not you'll choose to help out through the missions, go out and train, or simply just explore dungeons, it's all up to you...
...Though, maybe something will happen after the successful completion of 3 missions...
Yeah, yeah. Sticks and stones may break bones, but I heard enough of this "you're worthless"
from Ninja Man.
...
...You done?
Yeah, yeah, I'm done...
You DO realize that, even if people KNEW we exist, they won't even care, right? We'd just be another pair of regular faces in this world.
WHAT!? Why didn't you say anything before!? We could've just watched over Beta in the town instead of fight in the middle of these flowery fields against a bunch of people we don't even know!
I DID tell you already! TEN TIMES! But you NEVER LISTEN!
Alright, FINE. I'm SORRY for not listening to you. I'm SORRY for attacking these guys for no reason. I'm SORRY for dragging you INTO said fight. Now get off my case about it!
I'm going back into that town and buying myself an E-Tank... And they'd better NOT be sold out again.
...I apologize for his behavior... Here. I brought these from another dime- err, from home. (At least, I hope these'll have the same effect here as they do in any other universe...)
Now, if you excuse me, I should follow him before he causes any MORE trouble...
Good job, guys! That's this mission, this dungeon, AND this chapter of the story cleared!
...And since this was a STORY mission completed, all teams involved will gain more EXP than they would for regular missions! (Even the one who didn't really get the chance to really do anything, but NOT the team that had been doing absolutely nothing the whole past few floors.)
Maybe so... But as a soldier, I utilize both... As for him...
...Your move.
Wh-what...? But... But I’m Wily’s... greatest...
There, there, Ninja... Take this time being beaten to calmly rethink the situation.
Now, then. Since my... Friend (which, a bit of a stretch, really) is down for the count, we can make this a bit of a more friendlier bout.
(Talking to Shired) ...You seem to have a great amount of defense...
...I can appreciate a robot like you who can take a good hit.
Unfortunately, such defense is meaningless if you don’t have the attacking strength to back it.
Gah! Cheep shot, prick! Not only hiding behind worthless mechas, but also sticking me to the floor with the weapon of that previously scrapped robot of Light's!
You DO realize that it's most likely these guys don't even know who Dr. Light i-
You think I don't know that!? I do, I just don't care.
Now, how about you come here and face me like a ma- Hey, where are you going!? Why are you going after the Third Wheel!?
Th-Third Wheel?
You know what!? FINE! I don't NEED to fight some rip-off to prove myself!
I MAY LOOK LIKE BASS, BUT AT LEAST I HAVE SOME ORIGINALITY!
Now, then, speaking of Bass look-alikes...
Ugh, RIGHT. I'm glued to the floor. (How does that even WORK on grass!?)
...What are YOU looking at, you helmet-wearing inconsiderate!?
(Urgh,
these dimension-crossing stat rearrangements... In my world, that Metall would've already been dead! ...Then again, it would also be the case in most other worlds.)
(Fortunately, I stealth-bought this from Auto's shop... Which I guess technically means I stole it, but I also left some Bolts there, so it balances out.)
That's what you get for enabling Ninja Man like that... Besides, there's something about you I don't like... You look like someone who used to torture me and Beta... Though, why that is, I am unsure.
...Did he just... One-shot Retro!?
, newfound respect for Sergeant Man...
I already described defeat and the consequences of defeat in Discord... So, to save character space, here's a screenshot of that message!

...Tch. The point still stands that we aren't exactly supposed to EXIST in this world.
...As for joining you guys, we can't exactly do that on account of...
...Nevermind. You don't need to know about that.
And YOU. Star Man-looking robot. Don't say our names like you know us or something. The only way you would know who we are is if you were from where we are from.
Believe me... If you were from where WE were from...
...You wouldn't even exist anymore.
...*Sigh* He's clearly not going to be talked out of this... Believe me, I would know. Once he starts a fight, he sees through it until he either wins or loses.
As funny as it would be to just let Phantasm take that damage, I'm afraid there's not exactly anything that will warrant letting that count.
...Hm...
You there. Proto Man recolor.
You look like a good challenge.
Wait a sec... Could it be? Are we ACTUALLY going to have a Ninja Man-Retro fight!?
Holy
we're actually having a Ninja Man-Retro fight! Wow, it's been, what, 5 years in the making? And this version of Ninja Man doesn't even know who Retro is!
(Granted, there's no evidence pointing towards Retro knowing who Ninja Man is, either...)
Oh, who cares! I'm getting the popcorn for THIS one!
... *Sigh* As much as I don't want to fight, it seems I don't have much of a choice... It's either fight here, or never hear the end of it from Ninja Man...
...Guess a little practice won't hurt... How about we make it a good one?
...Do you really think Beta can handle it?
Oh, please... He handled that Metonger well enough on his own... Not to mention he was able to take on that Symphony guy...
Besides, he'd BETTER be able to handle himself out there... If anyone's going to take him out, it's going to be m-
...
...Is something wrong?
...Our hiding space appears to have been compromised. We've got company... And a lot of it.
...You. ...You will tell NOBODY you saw us... We'll make sure of it!
Ninja Man, NO! We shouldn't give them the wrong idea-
Well, Sergeant, they already know we're here, AND that we're clearly not from around here... That means they already know more than enough.
Besides, for all we know, these guys could be villains! We don't know any of them, so why should we trust them!?
... *Sigh* Guess I can't talk you out of making us fight them...
H-huh!? What are Ninja and Sergeant doing here!?
...Actually, scratch that. HOW are THOSE versions of Ninja and Sergeant here!? I thought that I-
...Nevermind, it doesn't matter. I guess this is a good time to talk about Boss Fights.
Bosses are enemies that are stronger than any of the other enemies you faced in this dungeon. Not only that, but they don't exactly appear that very often... Not that these guys are SUPPOSED to be here at all.
Your objective is to beat both of them. Not only will that complete the mission, but it will also complete the Dungeon AND allow you to progress in this roleplay's story.
Good luck.
Wow, that was fast.
STOP! YOU HAVE VIOLATED THE LAW!
YOU HAVE STOLEN A GRAND TOTAL OF 1,000 BOLTS FROM AUTO'S STORE... AND WORSE OF ALL, YOU HAD CUT IN LINE!
US ROBOTS TAKE GREAT PRIDE IN OUR PATIENCE... YOU, TOO, SHOULD LEARN TO HAVE SOME. THANKFULLY, YOU'LL HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO DO SO IN PRISON.
Aw, man... But prison is so dull...
...AS FOR THE REST OF YOU, I WOULD LIKE TO THANK YOU PERSONALLY FOR APPREHENDING THIS THIEF. I'D LIKE TO GIVE YOU ALL SOMETHING FOR YOUR TROUBLES.
...SOME ROBOTS THESE DAYS... I SWEAR, THERE HAS BEEN A RATHER PECULIAR RISE IN CRIME RECENTLY... US FAKE MEN UNITS HAVE BEEN HAVING FAR TOO MUCH TROUBLE KEEPING UP WITH IT.
...WE MAY REQUIRE YOUR ASSISTANCE MORE TIMES IN THE FUTURE. I SHALL LOOK FORWARD TO FUTURE COOPERATION.
Hm, PvP... Now THERE'S an idea...
...Eh, maybe not. I'll think about it.
...You know what? No. If Brash isn't going to be active, then his team shall be treated as such. For now on, I'm just automating his turns as "wait". If anything happens to his team, then those are the consequences he shall face.
Ha! Try to beat me all you like, but my mind is too sharp!
And a genius criminal such as myself knows to rely on his trusty henchmen to get the job done!
OW! Hey, watch it!
YEOUCH! What am I paying you these stolen Bolts for!?
