The
NEW Sinister Six in:
All
Good Things: Part 6
Narrator: The interior of General Cutman's base is a mess of salvaged
technology. It looked like the General spent his time
stealing whatever advanced technology he could fine
and then he'd dismantle it and reconfigure it all for
his own use. The lights were dim with sporadic power
outages. There was an audible, but unsteady hum generated
by the florescent bulbs. It seems that the General didn't
consider safe lights a concern. The myriad of controls
were manned by several old friends ... Minion, City
Garage, Buster Rod G, and Gasman.
Time,
Bomb, Cut, Elec, and Guts were placed in a cell. The
bars looked normal, but Leon confirmed they were flowing
with deadly anti-electricity. The kind of thing that
could fry Pulzar's circuits ... and his own. Gary was
placed on a metal slab connected to a similar cage,
only with a glass exterior. This cage held another ...
"old fiend."
Rich: Kefka!
Kefka: Oh ho ... look who else was captured.
Britt: What's going on here, General?
General
Cutman: Soon, sweety, soon.
(The
General worked at the controls more. He seemed to be
adjusting power gages.)
Britt: Fix Gary Now! You promised!
General
Cutman: Don't worry. He'll be fixed. "I promise!"
Heh heh heh.
City
Garage: The power outputs look good, General.
Minion: Everything's set on my end, General!
Buster
Rod: Kefka's power is still checked, General.
Scorpion: What's this, General Cutman? Why aren't the six dead
yet? What are we waiting for??
General
Cutman: For everything in my plan to work, of course.
Scorpion: Your plan? I thought it was "first the Sinister
Six and then the world." What other plan can there
be?
Super
Chaos: heh heh heh...
General
Cutman: Oh, Scorpion. I'm so disappointed in you. You used to be such a big thinker. That's
why I joined forced with you.
Lance: Looks like he's gonna get it now.
Scorpion: Silence!
General
Cutman: Don't you see? Even if we beat the Sinister
Six there'll always be some other team in our way. But
there's an old saying ... "if you can't beat 'em
... join 'em!"
Scorpion: ...
General
Cutman: I'm not interested in the obvious sort of
world conquest someone like you thinks about.
No, I'm interested in truly shaping the world! People
already see the Sinister Six as heroes ... and why
not just let them keep on thinking that? Only, this
time around ... the Sinister Six will be working with
me!
Scorpion: With us!
General
Cutman: "Us"? Oh, there might have been
an "us" early on in this, but it became clear
pretty soon that you just weren't up to my level of
thinking.
Scorpion: "Your level of thinking"!? I've heard enough!
No two-bit robotic copy can talk that way to me! Sleek
Squad! Give me his head!
...
Peter: Heh heh heh.
Scorpion: Sleek Squad?
General
Cutman: I'm sorry, but none of my robot masters
will hurt me.
Scorpion: Your robot masters!?
General
Cutman: I arranged for the "accident"
that gave the Sleek Squad their powers to happen. After
they learned that, they were pretty grateful. They're
my first human Robot Masters!
Fred: It's good to be the first.
Scorpion: Neo! Aid me! With your power I can -
Neo: No way, loser! General Cutman rebuilt me. He gave me
a place in the world. I'll be taking my dad's place
in the new Sinister Six.
Scorpion: Then ... Odin.
Kefka: Fwa hah hah hah hah! Even in my prison I can appreciate this!
Scorpion: Odin!
Odin: Scorpion ... who do you think the General replaced
first among the six?
The
Six: !!!
Gary: Wait ... you mean?
(Odin
slices at Scorpion! Scorpion evades.)
Scorpion: Traitor! You'll *GAHH!!*
(Scorpion
comes tumbling down as a rolling Cutter stabs him in
the back, slicing off his tail in the process.)
General
Cutman: When I bring you back, I'll be making you
smarter.
Scorpion: Odinnnn!!
Odin: Goodbye, "pal".
(Odin
uses his Soul Reaper to remove Scorpion's head from
his shoulders.)
Rich: What did he mean by that, General?
General
Cutman: What he meant is that he was the first among
you no-good "brothers" of mine to die and
then be remade in my own image! Shortly after he became
Elecman, in fact. All this time, he's actually been
working for me!
Britt: But ... he said he was working for Scorpion!
Odin: Scorpion approached me a few weeks after General Cutman
remade me. While infiltrating the six was a priority
it was decided that using Scorpion's connections to the various villains would prove even more fruitful.
After all ... they're a lot more suspicious than you
guys.
Kefka: Fwa hah hah hah hah! That's actually pretty funny! I
may be dead soon, but I can still appreciate a good
joke!
General
Cutman: And now ... it's time for "Iceman"
to get better. Or more accurately ... my brother Iceman
Red!
The
Six: !!!
General
Cutman: (Opens the Necronomicon and recites it's
deadly words) Klataa ... Verataaa ... Niktu! Spirits
of the dead! Enter this vessel!
Gary: GWAHHHH!!!
Britt: Gary!
Erik: You bastard! What do you think you're doing!?
General
Cutman: Now, begin the transfer of energy! Siphon
off Kefka's power into my brother!
(cables
glow as Kefka's power is transferred into Iceman!)
Gary: Gahh! Akk! What ... do you think you're doing!?
General
Cutman: Keeee heee hee heee! Red wasn't the only
one of Dr. Light's robots to turn out bad. I was the
first! Dr. Light feared my power and drove me out, but
I survived. I thought I was alone for a long time ...
until I heard about my dear brother Red...
General
Cutman: Red's like me! Another of Light's creations
that got tossed aside. Another of Light's creations
that's superior to the rest of these miserable robotic
failures that inhabit this sorry excuse for a planet!
Gary: But ... *nng* ... I'm not Red! AHH!! There's not
even a screw left of Red! He's gone!
General
Cutman: True enough. But ... there's still something
of Red left in the world. And that's you, brother dear.
You're Red's other half. I think just having you is
enough to anchor Red's spirit. And thanks to the Necronomicon,
that's exactly what I'm able to do! And thanks to Kefka's
power...
Kefka: You're welcome by the way.
General
Cutman: i can bring my brother Red back with a small
measure of his trademark, godlike power! Keee heee hee
hee hee!
Super
Chaos: Oh, it's good to be on the winning side for
once...
Minion: Sir! Perimeter alarms are going off!
General
Cutman: What!?
Minion: We have intruders!
General
Cutman: What!? Who!? Wily's forces are gone! The
Mechs are a world away with Megaman! The old S6 are
in robot jail! My plan's airtight! Who the Hell is left!?
WHO!?
City
Garage: Turning on surveillance monitors ... We
have video and audio!
Nick: Alright, Backstreet Project! This is it! Our friends
are in there and it's up to us to save the day!
General
Cutman: ...
TO
BE CONTINUED!
