Melvin spits off to one side.

Melvin: This can't -possibly- be that hard. All Metool-derived bosses and minibosses have easily exploitable weaknesses. Which generally involve waiting for them to look out from under their hats and shooting. And seeing as how this guy's too big to fit under his hat...

Much blasting from Melvin and Smithy ensues!

Zex stared at the Dark Devil...

Zex: "Another model of the Rainbow Devil, isn't it? According to what I know... Wily is not our target! Within that blob of Dark Matter is a mechanical eye. If we can somehow make our attacks penetrate trought the Dark Devil and damage it's eye, then it will fall apart, defeated. Since this looks like an older version of the Rainbow Devil... I guess that the best time to strike is when it will try to blast us with it's ultimate attack! Until then, dodge whatever he throws at us and whatever you do, DON'T let him suck you in!"

Melvin and Smithy's blasts make several large holes in the Devil, but they quickly fill back up.

Ran: The eye is always in the center! *jumps up in the air*

"COSSACK BUSTER!"

A huge beam of plasma energy erupts from Ran's buster. It goes straight through the Devil, leaving only a thin circular rim connecting the limbs and Wily. The mechanical "eye" flies out, across the room, crashing into the wall and breaking into many pieces. The wall also seems to absorb the blast from Ran's buster.

Ran: Yay! I did it!

Quint: Wow, the walls in here must contain some amount of met alloy...

Protoman: Why do you think we haven't just broken through the non-barred walls of this cage?

Draco: ...I don't buy it.

Jack: Hmm?

Draco: That was too easy...

JDavis: Relax, Drac-

Everyone suddenly stopped and watched as the pieces of the Dark Devil start to regroup.

JDavis: But... how... it...?

Gutsman: I guess the eye wasn't really controlling it.

Duo: In such a large amount, one would require a huge amount of power to control the Evil Energy... That "eye" device would be insufficient.

Quint: But obviously, Dad didn't realize that...

Zex: "I'm getting insane dark-elemental readings from the Dark Devil! They're even worse than my dark powers! Looks like the Dark Devil became unstable with the eye gone! While it is only a matter of time before it falls apart, destroyed... I fear that it will have more than enough time to destroy us all! Prepare yourselves! It's going to attack!"

Zex prepared herself to cast a protection spell on Kirbynite...

Quint: *looks at Zex* What have we just been saying? The eye was having no effect on the Dark Matter, Zex. It's just as stable as it was three minutes ago.

Draco: Uh.. Yeah, pay attention.

Jack: Pssh, like you were paying attention yourself, Draco.

Draco:

Zex: "Look more carefully... or should I say, wait... the eye was the Dark Devil's control CPU. With it gone, it shouldn't take long until the Dark Matter assume it's original form... unless it decided to remain in this form for some reason. I do not know why it would remain in this form, however. While it is a big and somewhat powerful-looking form, it's true form is much stronger... probably."

Kirbynite: .. Zex... *sad-like* Why must you make everything sound like it's really really bad? I mena.. you could be wrong.. or something...

Kirbynite gulps as he stares that the Dark Devil. He was a bit intimidated by it, especially since a seemingly powerful beam wasn't enough to take it out.

Kirbynite: Um... *taking a few steps back* Anyone have any ideas on how to take this own? Do we toss it a lit match and hope that it's got oil in its body?

Smithy suddenly holds up a large, glowing yellow sphere with an old-fashioned alarm clock attatched to it, and several red and blue wires encircling the device.

Smithy: Now I know what this was for!

Melvin: Smithy, NO--

Smithy hurls the device to the ground like a football player dancing around at the end zone, and the room seems to explode in a torrent of white-hot light.

Zex dived in front of Kirbynite in an attempt to protect him from the explosion!

Max grit his teeth, shielding himself with one arm. With most of the machinery beneath the Dark Matter destroyed, he obviously wasn't the only one wondering what kept the behemoth ticking. While they had foughten the huge Dark knight near the end of their stay in the Mushroom Kingdom, this one seemed to be a bit larger, and the Darkness seemed much denser and resilient than before.

He looked up, noticing Max's Darkness, ironically, piercing out from the light on top of the dome above. He blinked, gears starting to turn as he turned to face the group again. He failed to notice his doppelganger make his leave yet again.

"Keep it busy... one of us has to get Wily out of there."

Now that the light had faded, the Dark Devil seemed sufficiently blinded, stumbling about for a moment.

Quint: Now, Gutsman!

Gutsman started firing star-shaped blasts at the Dark Devil, the same as he had fired at Forte. Each one sliced cleanly through it, leaving gaping holes. Quint, meanwhile, ran at a nearby wall and jumped at it, kicked off, and tackled Wily. Gutsman, catching on, fired several star-blasts at the part of the Dark Devil where Wily's legs were. As Quint and Wily fell towards the ground, the black 'goop' that made up the Dark Devil tried to cling to Wily, stretching from the top of the Dark Devil like mozzarella. However, one last star-blast from Gutsman disconnected the strand of Dark Matter. Without Wily to feed on, the Dark Devil blinked its eyes for a couple seconds, before dissolving. It wasn't exactly like it was melting.. tiny pieces of the Dark Matter were flying in every direction, making popping sounds as they did, but not making it any further than a foot from the main mass of the Dark Devil before dissipating. Finally, there was only a small mass, about a foot in diameter, of the Dark Devil left, which still had the large yellow eyes looking around fearfully. The eye blinked once before this one pieces exploded with a loud "POP!"

JDavis: Well that was easy.

Quint: Dad? Dad!?

Everyone looked over at Wily, who was not moving. His eyes were still solid white, and his mouth remained gaping open. The met hat had fallen off of his head, and lay on the ground a few feet away.

Quint: Duo! Do something!

Duo walks over and kneels next to Wily. He turns his hand into energy again, and places it in Wily's chest. After a moment, he removes it and looks at Quint.

Duo: There... is nothing I can do.

Quint: What!?

Duo: There is no life left in him. He was old, and the stress from having that much Evil Energy feeding off him was too much. I'm sorry.

Quint: *looking down at Wily* Father...

Kirbynite looked at the man laid out on the floor. He frowned a bit, not knowing how to react. Wily seemed like one of those evil people he'd see on tv shows, but he was still a father to someone.

Uh.. to a robot. I think.


Kirbynite: .. I'm sorry... It was for the best.. Would you prefer that he stayed inside that goopy mess?

Zex saw that Kirbynite was showing sympathy to Quint. She could not understand this feeling... but she had to serve her master and helping her master was her best way of serving him right now...

So, Zex approached Quint.

Zex: "Dr.Wily was one of the many souls who were affected by the plague know as "Evil" and thus, lived in constant pain... the Dark Matter amplified his power and pain. He is free, now."

Zex felt awkward... unable to feel feelings, she tried to reconfort Quint at the best of her abilities... Maybe that the knowledge that Dr.Wily was now free of his own Evil will bring reconfort to Quint?

A sweatdrop rolled down Kirbynite's back as he continued to stand motionless.

Kirbynite: ... That moment of silence has been going on for quite some time now...

Quint grabs a remote of sorts out of Wily's pocket, then slowly stand, not looking at anybody.

Quint: Let's go.

He presses a button on the remote, and the bars of Megaman and co.'s cage slowly lower into the floor, and the met-alloy cuffs fell off. Protoman grabbed Kalinka, and the three robots jumped out of the cage to join everybody else eight feet below. Suddenly, a female voice could be heard coming from Gutsman's systems...

Fem: Gutsman, can you hear me?

Gutsman: *places a hand to the side of his head* Loud and clear, Doc.

Fem: Finally, that dampening field is down! So, what's happened? Did you defeat Dr. Wily?

Gutsman: Erm... Now's... Not a good time to talk about it. Let's just say we rescued the hostages and leave it at that.

Fem: ... Okay... Tell everyone to stand in a group, I'm beaming you out.

And so, everyone stood together in roughly the center of the room. Next thing they knew, their bodies seemed to be both weightless and shapeless. They soared straight up, going right through the glass ceiling as if it wasn't there. They were outside now... It had stopped raining, and though the wind was blowing, it had no effect on them. They found themselves falling back toward the ground, but instead of Wily's fortress, the hovercraft was now below them. As they hit the ground, they returned to their normal form, as if nothing had happened.

JDavis: That... was... different.

Zex: "This was some kind of teleportation system. Used in most Megaman-type Dimensions. However, biological creatures rarely get to use this kind of system... most of the time, only mechanical beings can use it. Maybe this world has more advanced teleportation systems?"

Kirbynite found himself face down.

Kirbynite: Oof... Oi... A bit rough, wasn't it?

The pink creature pushes himself up and looks around.

Kirbynite: .. It seems like we didn't find more of our friends here..

Toad: Or the King.

Kirbynite: Nothing's surprising me anymore.. Not even that.. light flight... What's gonna happen now, Quint?

Zex turned to Kirbynite... she seemed uneasy. It was weird seeing her like that. She hardly shown any feeling before and now, she seemed uneasy all of a sudden for no reason? How completely weird...

Zex: "Master... do you have a second? I have some very important things to say and well... I think only you should hear about them."

Kirbynite looks around, and notices it's a bit crowded.

Kirbynite: Um... ok.. but.. We don't have that much space here... We are on some kinda... car thing.
