Just for context MCU in this story means Magic Cinematic Universe

chapter 2 Time to go to school

Saturday we went shopping to buy clothes and school supplies and on Sunday we went out to see the new Spider-boy movie with Celestia’s sister Luna. “I dare say that was better than the original trilogy, or at least as good.” Luna said.

“Luna did you forget about Spider-boy 3?” Celestia teased.

“Please don’t remind me that film was horrible.” Luna said turning to me “Well Mike what did you think?”

“I thought it was okay I would have liked some more context on what was going on and who most of the characters were.”

“You haven't seen the MCU?” Luna asked.

“Oh Mike you should have told us we would have spent the day watching them.” Celestia said as Luna giggled.

“Oh I get to watch that airport scene again.” Luna said with excitement.

On Monday I was woken up early by Celestia “Morning Mike it's time to wake up.”

Sleepily I opened my eyes and asked “What time is it?”

“It's 6 am.” she said as she gently pushed me till I was up.” Time to wake up you have school.”

“Mmm five more minutes.” I said turning around and closing my eyes.

“Sorry but I can’t be late for school.” She said shaking me a bit more.

“Alright i’m up” I said as I got out of the bed. As she left the room I grabbed Model A and left for the dining room.

“I’ve made you bacon and eggs now eat up we have a busy day ahead.” She said as I sleepily eat my bacon and eggs after that I got dressed before heading to the car to be driven to school. “Are you excited for your first day of school?” Celestia asked.

I just looked at her and gave a half hearted “I guess.”

“Mike I know going to a new school can be hard but take it with a grain of salt you're going to do fine, plus you can always come see me if things get too hard. Okay?” she said.

“Okay” I said.

“Okay now school doesn’t start for another half hour if you want you can come to my office and play on my computer.” Celestia said as she parked in her parking spot, As we got out Celestia waved to somebody “Oh Ms. Cheerilee I was hoping to run into you before school started.” she said.

“Oh Principle Celestia what did you need?” Cheerilee asked

“Well I was hoping to introduce you to your new student.” she said as she turned to me “Say hello Mike.”

I looked at the lady and meekly said “Hi” and waved before going back behind Celestia.

“He’s shy.” Celestia said.

“Why is he with you, is he another troublemaker?” Cheerilee asked.

“No, no I’m his guardian.” Celestia said.

“Oh I’m sorry.” Cheerilee said.

“It’s alright I normally bring troublemakers to you anyway so It's only natural you'd assume so.” Celestia said.

“And what's this he’s holding?” Cheerilee asked.

“Its model A she keeps me calm.” I said as Cheerilee looked at it,

“I saw something similar to it in Mr. Serpent’s tour last week during our field trip.” Cheerilee said to Celestia as I froze.

‘No it can’t be the same serpent as in ZX’ I thought

“What's wrong Mike?” Celestia asked.

“...its nothing Celestia.”

“Please when were at school call me Principle Celestia, okay?” Celestia said.

“Okay sorry... Principal Celestia” I said looking at the ground.

“Alright now let’s head to my office I’ll have the updated student list by the end of the week Miss Cheerilee.” Celestia said as we walked into the school.

Half an hour passed as I played on Principal Celestia’s computer apparently she knew of a website similar to newgrounds that I could play on... just as long as it wasn’t rated anything higher than T. As I finished a round of card on this card battle game I found the bell rang “Aright now let me escort you to your class Mike” Principal Celestia said. As we walked I say this girl with bacon hair walking into a class and for some reason Model A started Vibrating as If she had something important. “Well we're here” Principal Celestia said as she knocked on the door.

On the other side I could hear Cheerilee say “Alright Class before I do roll call I would like to Introduce you to a new student.” as she said that Principal Celestia opened the door and I walked in. I walked to the middle of the chalkboard and looked at Cheerilee “Well introduce yourself” she said

“H-hello I’m Mike and this is Model A.” I said holding up model A.

“Ha, he brought a toy to school.” Somebody in the back said as I was looking at Model A and considering using A-trans to turn into Bifrost and scare them but I decided against it as I didn’t want to scare the rest of the class and get Celestia in trouble.

“Diamond Tiara you apologize right now.” Cheerilee said.

“Fine I’m sorry.” she said while muttering something under her breath.

“Thats better now Mike you can take the free spot in over there.” Cheerilee said pointing to a free chair in the middle row I quickly took my seat.

After the class I went to lunch and sat by myself as word traveled fast that I brought a ‘toy’ to school so nobody would want to sit next to me. “Hey.” a girl said as two girls sat down next to me. “I’m Appleboom.” she said pointing to a snow white girl “that's Sweetie belle.” she said as Sweetie bell waved “And that's Scootaloo.” she said as an orange girl looked at me.

“Hi” I said before looking back to my food.

“So why did you bring a toy to a high school?” Scootaloo asked.

“Scootaloo!” Sweetie belle said

“What? You know you're wondering too.” Scootaloo said.

“It’s fine Model A helps me calm down.” I said it was a half truth.

“Oh so it’s a stress toy?” Sweetie Belle said.

“Kinda...” I said as I took a bite out of my sandwich.

“Thats neat...” Applebloom said as the other girls started eating there food as well.

After lunch we went to gym where I had to sit it out as I didn’t bring gym clothing. After Gym we had math which I kinda cheated in when Model A told me some of the answers before the teacher tried to confiscate her away from me luckily a quick call to the principal's office told him not to touch her but I was warned that talking to her again would net me detention for interrupting the class. After math was the end of the school day “Hey Mike you want to come to my place?” Scootaloo asked.

“Umm okay?” I said confused and a bit uncomfortable.

“Oh don’t give that look Applebloom and Sweetie belle are coming too.” she said

“I’ll have to ask my guardian but if she’s cool with it yes.”

“Alright make that phone call” Scootaloo said as Applebloom and Sweetie Belle joined use in walking to the principal's office.” Umm this is the principal’s office not the payphones.” Scootaloo noticed.

“Hi Ms. Celestia can I go to Scootaloo’s place?” I asked as the girls all looked at each other before saying

“Your mom is the principal?” the all asked at once.

“Guardian and yes Mike you can go to Scootaloo’s place I’ll call her place when I’m ready to pick you up okay?” she said as the girls were talking to each other.

“Are you sure we should invite him I mean he might snitch on us?” scootaloo said.

“Yes we already invited plus we're not doing anything bad.” Applebloom said.

“I say we still take him.” Sweetie belle said as Celestia coughted.

“You know we can hear you right?” Celestia asked.

The three of the looked at celestia and giggled “Sorry” the three said before we headed for the bus.

As I tried to get on the bus the bus driver stopped me from getting on “Sorry you can’t ride this bus.” the bus driver said.

“Relax cranky he’s with us” Applebloom said.

“Fine kid you can come on but no funny business alright.” he said giving me a glare.

As we got to scootaloo’s place we were stopped by her mom “Scootaloo who’s this?”

“Mom this is Mike we just met him at school today.” scootaloo said.

“And does his mother know he’s here?” She asked.

“Guardian and yes she knows.” I said.

“Oh alright you kids play nice.” she said as we went off to the backyard.

After a while we got bored of playing and decided to take a walk through the nearby forest. As we walked we ended up at a clearing where there was a treehouse. “So Mike what do you think?”

I looked at it and said “It's a nice tree house.” As we tried to enter the treehouse I heard a stick break behind us. I turned around to see four men with some kind of assault rifles walking in the woods “We need to hide now” I said running into the treehouse as the girls followed.

“Who are they?” Sweetie Belle asked in a whisper.

“As Scootaloo tried to say something the four men stepped into the clearing and one of them spoke into a comlink “Alright sir Model A should be close by” he paused to hear what the person on the other end has to say. “Yes sir no witnesses understood.” He said as he looked at the treehouse “Hey thief I know you're hiding in there come out and we might not hurt you” he said as the others pointed their guns at the treehouse.

“What’s he talking about?” Scootaloo asked as I looked at model A “did you steal that?” she asked.

“Model A...” I said as I looked out there “I’m heading out stay hidden.” I said as I climbed down the tree “Alright you got me.” I said as they pointed their guns at me “before you kill me thought may I ask who sent you?” I asked

“Are you really that stupid to forget who you stole the Bio metal from...no there are others watching aren't there.” The man said as the others took aim at the treehouse.

“Fine I guess you won't tell but before you kill me let me get two last words down.” I said.

“And those are?” he asked.

MEGA MERGE!” I shouted.

“M.E.G.A system activated Biolink established” Model A said as I turned into Megaman Model A.

“He can Megamerge?” the man looked at the other and ordered them “Kill him!”

I fired my guns at the goons trying to knock their guns away. I used a homing shot to hit a few of them and saw that they were robots. The robots shrugged off the homing shots and ran forward taking cover behind the trees as did the other figure. Each took aim firing potshots at the Megaman whittling down his energy in hopes of a killshot.

The man kept quiet but kept a finger up to his ear activating the comlink with a slight beep. All three of the robots aimed for the tree house firing several rounds through the thin wooden floors.

“Ah crap!” I shouted charging a charge shot at one of the robots. “Hey Ugly i’m over here” I said running into the forest.

“After him.” he said as the three robots chased after me.

The three robots took point rushing into the shadows of the trees making sure to take cover before filling an area with plasma fire burning down the underbrush and setting the forest ablaze. Each step took careful precision as they burned down any hiding spots that the Megaman could take advantage of.

Mike leapt out of one of the currently burning trees with a fully charged up shot shoving his blaster right on top of one of the robots before letting the trigger go. The small explosion sent him back as the rest of the bot melted into slag and fell over from the strain.

Noticing one was down the other two bore down on Mike firing another barrage of plasma behind him making it impossible to escape without burning himself. The two menacingly stepped forward making sure to keep enough space to have maximum range with their plasma cannons.

“Ah crap...” I said looking around for anything I could use “I could A-trans or-” I paused as I saw that they were standing under a tree with a very large branch.

Mike seeing the branch fired quickly as the two robots did as well. Lunging to the ground to avoid the fire the branch fell knocking the two robots down. It was enough of a distraction to get out of the way. Mike dashed off for more cover while the two bots got back up. The flames licked their armor turning them into hellish creatures which raced after Mike. The man who stayed back for the most part made sure to keep track while he watched for the young boy they were hunting. The first bot required a sneak attack to take down and the forest was nothing more than an opportunity to use against the young boy.

The robots began their process once again burning down a small section of the forest. Mike readied another charge shot and dashed from behind one of the burning trees. While he was fast enough the robot he targeted managed to aim their weapon as well. Both released their triggers. While the robot soon became a pile of slag Mike was not so lucky being shot and tossed back by a few stray plasma shots.

“1 one more to go.” I said as I looked for the last robot.

The last robot planted its gun in my face and pulled the trigger sending me flying from the intense heat. Only the armor protected my head forcing me to roll to the side. Charging up my blaster I took aim shooting the lower torso off before stomping on the head to make sure it didn’t get back up. The robot sputtered around for a bit shooting before shutting down. There was still the man to deal with.

“Hey!” I shouted as the man walked away from the treehouse “Did you touch them?” I asked pointing my gun at him.

“Who? There is nobody in the treehouse.” I said.

I walked menacingly up to him. He fired a few rounds from his plasma cannon but his shaky arm complemented his aim making it worse. I dashed forward knocking him to the ground only to knock his mask off his face before pushing my blaster into his face. It was a human face.

“You’re h-human?” I said as he knocked me off and tried to blast me with his blaster. Before He could fire at me I used a charge shot to blast him in the eye.

“GAAAAAAAA!” he screamed as he ran away and I transformed back into Mike.

“Girls?” I asked as they came out of the trees.

“That was amazing how you took down those guys down.” Scootaloo said.

“Please don’t tell Celestia about this” I said.

“Why?” They asked.

“I don’t want her to worry about me.” I said

They looked at each other before saying “Fine if you tell us how you transformed.”

“It was all thanks to me.” model A said floating up from my pocket

“What Model A can talk?” Applebloom asked.

“Yes she can now I maybe we should head back before your mom gets worried.” I said.

“Okay but you're telling us everything tomorrow.” Sweetie belle said.

“Sir, Agent Rayas has come back.” a voice on the speaker said

“Good sent him in” Serpent said

“H-hello boss.”Rayas said scared.

“So where is Model A?” Serpent asked

“It merged with a kid.”Rayas said

“That could be troublesome have you brought the kid with you then?”

“Thats the problem the kid destroyed three mechaniloids and blinded me in one eye.” he said as I put my cup down.

“So my best agent couldn’t handle on kid.” Serpent said.

“But Sir he was a megaman!” Rayas said

“I don’t care you had one JOB!” Serpent screamed.

“Lets not be too hasty Serpent. He did fight a megaman after all.” Master albert said.

“Right sir.” Rayas said.

“Let's fix have his eye.” Master Albert said as as we sent him away.

“Well this is interesting a new Megaman.” Pandora said.

“Hmm he’s just a brat” Prometheus said.
