Maverick Theory

(this is m first creepypasta, so don't expect much, having said that; Feel free to judge without mercy. Also sorry about the frist post I hit the worng bution at the worng time.) Remember the end of Megaman 7, when you finally beat that almost impossible boss. Dr.Wily surrendered yet again foiled his plans, and Megaman responded with a threat on Wily’s life. Who could blame him, after fooling him with Bass, and taking on of his brothers and turning him against him again, anyone would feel the same way. Although in the hype of actually killing Wily after all the shit he put us through, we never asked ourselves, “why would capcom put this in a Megaman game?” Well as you all know the megaman series went an interesting route. After Megaman 6, Capcom move on to the super nes, but we didn’t get a 7 right away. Instead we got  Megaman X, which had a slightly darker story. In the future, humans lived along side Reploids however, some reploids know as Mavericks, attacked humans and Reploids. Reploids who protected everyone from Mavericks, became known as Maverick Hunters, however the biggest thing was an all new Megaman (you know, X).

So what would this have to do with Megaman 7’s ending, well Megaman X takes place in the future, however Megaman 6’s ending puts Wily in jail and the world safe. This could also put Megaman X in it’s own series, unless there was some sort of tie-in. Megaman 7 at that time was meant to be that tie-in. Megaman looked closer to X and had a armor kinda like his, (although different, because of his robo K-9 Rush.) so that it would be safe to say that it could be a prequel. So exactly how does it make the connections to both Megaman/X’s worlds. Well it’s all comes back to 7’s ending, with Megaman wanting to end Wily’s life. Claiming to be “more than just a robot.” this means that Megaman is breaking the barrier between being a robot that follows orders, though it’s hard to say he was just a robot to begin with, he does suggest that he can choose to ignore orders.

With the threatening of Dr.Wily, Megaman is going down a strange path, a path that may have had Megaman become the first Maverick. I know what you're thinking, this is bullshit and Megaman would never do that... think about this, the main guy in Megaman, Keniji Inafune, was going to create the main character for Megaman X, but it wasn’t going to be X. It was Zero. So it’s safe to say that Megaman X would have gone down a different’ road altogether. Zero would be the hero instead, and it might have been possible that in Sigma’s palace the old Megaman might be in charge of the Maverick rebels. With the hints left by Capcom, it’s widely believed that Wily made Zero. Of course this would mean that not only would Zero be hunting a Maverick, but also avenging his creator. Megaman 7 could then be a prequel of what happen before, of course it never went down this road. However X was almost a main baddie in Zero’s own game. Despite it turning out to be a clone of X, the Idea was still there.

So what the change in the Hero, the story became the Megaman X we know today. The story however; still has that connection. So how does the nail close the coffin, well perhaps at one point Megaman 7 was the first part of the prequel. that in Megaman 8 would end in Wily’s death killed by Megaman. If this did happen would we expect him to stop after Wily.

Can you even imagine it, Megaman going around killing the innocent he once saved. Destroying his allies one by one, Rush his fateful K-9, Beat a very helpful companion, Protoman his younger brother, and Roll his sister, and a close friend all horrifically destroyed and scattered before a heartbroken Dr.Light, watching his dream of peace, destroyed before his very eyes by the same robot he could call son. It could be possible Bass was also a victim of Maverick Megaman, as strong as he was he could not beat Megaman. Perhaps he would’ve also join Megaman. It not like Bass was loyal to Wily, while yes he did save him in 7, he also attacked him a few times maybe he might have sided with Megaman until he gained more power. It’s hard to believe that this evil Megaman would just sit around to be turned off like a good boy...

I just remembered, didn’t Zero know more about Mavericks then X, like perhaps he had experience with them. If he woke up after, how would he know how to fight Mavericks without experience fighting Mavericks. If Light need to stop this evil Megaman, he might have looked around for something Wily might have had planed. Perhaps he came across Zero, finished his old rival and former friend robot, to sadly complete his objective and destroy Megaman. thous could set in stone the connection of the games for good.Once Zero completes his mission, Light notices that Zero also shows signs of going Maverick. ith his good heart Light could not bring himself to destroy Zero, he eased some of the events that happen out of Zero’s mind, Light put Zero back to sleep while he tried to solve the problem. His answer was X. Although he never lived to see it, X and Zero would become friends fighting the Mavericks together. This would have connected Megaman and Megaman X together...yet.

Wily escapes in Megaman 8, therefore the events that might have joined the two series have yet to happen. With Mr. Inafune leaving Capcom we may never truly know what events bring the series together. For now anyway, if Capcom brings the series back will we be ready. Can we truly be prepared for an evil Megaman?

For all we know the events described here could be in practice right now...
