Mega Man groaned as he stepped out of the strip club, only mostly clean. "So...where's this other Wub Master based?" he asked.
"...the entire red light district," Dr. Light replied through the communicator.
"...what?"
"That's why Da Bomb didn't have any helper bots. This other robot had control of the whole area."
Mega Man sighed, then primed his buster. "Alright. I'm temporarily disabling the Skull Blast function. There are too many civilians here to risk that."
"Be careful, Mega Man," Dr. Light warned worriedly. "I have no idea where, exactly, this Wub Master is based in the district, only that he has complete control of everything electronic in the area. Also, I'm picking up multiple high level robot signals. He likely has minions."
"...of course he does," Mega Man groaned. "Here we go."
Mega Man decided to first explore the entirety of the red light district on the outside without going into any of the buildings first. As he explored, he found that the streets had been unaltered, and it was relatively easy to maneuver. There were also quite a few civilians, and the occasional robot, whether humanoid or otherwise. The frustrating part was that the robots only went on the offensive if he got near, and frequently the humanoid ones would attack him from behind while hidden in a group of civilians.
Eventually, he came to the conclusion that the Wub Master had to be in one of the buildings. Bracing himself for more than he was really ready for psychologically, he went into them one by one.
As Mega Man entered the first store, he took in his surroundings. He found himself voicing his first impressions. "...why is there a Blockbuster here?" he asked in confusion. Walking up to one of the shelves, he lifted one of the DVDs and looked at the cover. After about five minutes, he carefully put the DVD back. "...I'm going to pretend I didn't see that..."
A whirring noise caught his attention, and he spun. Facing him was a large robot shaped like a jukebox on legs. "Window shopper detected! Eject!" With that proclamation, the robot began hurling discs at Mega Man.
Mega Man did his best to dodge the discs at first, until one nearly took his eye out. At that point, he settled for blasting the discs out of the air before blasting away at the robot until it eventually collapsed. Realizing that the Wub Master wasn't in there, he turned to head for another store.
Behind him, the defunct robot made a strange 'Cha-CHING' sound as data was processed.
The next store left Mega Man even more unnerved, mostly because he couldn't quite grasp what sort of store it was. "...handcuffs? Whips? Pads? Is...is this a sports goods store of some sort?" He paused at another shelf. "But...if that's the case...why is it selling...'personal lubricant'?"
Dr. Light was pointedly silent from his end.
A loud buzzing suddenly filled the air, and Mega Man spun in fear...only to scream and start running in circles. "I'm being attacked by flying purple plastic penises!" he cried out in despair. "And...other things I'm not sure what they are!"
"Then get out of there!" Dr. Light instructed.
Mega Man raced to the door, only to find it sealed in the same way doors in Wily's Fortresses often were. "I can't get out!" he wailed.
"You have a buster!"
"Right!" Spinning, Mega Man shot every single flying sex toy out of the air, leaving them all a smoking ruin. Once the shelves were empty, the door opened, letting him leave.
The register chimed loudly.
Mega Man breathed a sigh of relief as he stepped into a seemingly ordinary bakery.(1) "Should be safe enough here," he murmured. "Nothing traumatizing here. Though...what was with that name? 'Tasty While Tasteless'? Odd name for a bakery..."
His voice trailed off as he stared at the bread products on display. They were all shaped like...various body parts.
"...oh..."
A rumble startled him from behind the counter as the oven roared with flames, hurling overcooked bread products at him. Dodging each salvo, Mega Man struggled to counter, but he found he had to blast his way through the counter - and all the bread on display there - to manage to shoot at the oven. After several blasts landed on target, the oven finally sputtered to a smoking halt, and Mega Man quickly made his way out.
Behind him, the register chimed.
Mega Man moved carefully down the stairs behind the next door. "...please let this place be normal...please let this place be normal...please let this place be normal..."
"Mega Man, it's the red light district," Dr. Light murmured to him. "There's no chance of that."
"Mega Man?" a seductive voice purred. "Aren't we lucky."
Spinning, Mega Man found himself face to face with...a bevvy of busty, barely clad babes. "...wha?"
"Ready for a good time, big boy?" one of them asked.
"Mega Man!" Dr. Light said through the communicator. "Those are humans...but they're being controlled by some sort of electrical signal. You need to get past them without hurting them to shut down the signal."
"Any suggestions how?" Mega Man asked worriedly.
"...The Stream doesn't actually inflict damage..." Dr. Light began.
"...aw, nutbunnies," Mega Man murmured as he switched weapons.
"That's an oddly appropriate-"
"Just don't, Dad," Mega Man grumbled as he proceeded to pelvic thrust. "...that felt dirty." He carefully made his way past the now sticky ladies laid about the hallway. Finding the control circuit, he shut it down before turning to leave.
Behind him, something chimed.
Mega Man finally staggered into the last store on the street...only to find himself surrounded by frilly, delicate garments of various sorts. "Nope!" he proclaimed firmly, immediately turning to leave.
"Can I help you, sir?"
Mega Man spun at the source of the voice, finding himself face to face with an obviously robotic humanoid. His body was colored red and black in a tuxedo pattern, and he had a button on his forehead. "...please tell me you're the Wub Master..."
The robot smiled. "VWM-003 at your service."
"And...why all this?" Mega Man demanded, gesturing to the whole red light district. "Just...why?"
The bot smiled widely. "Because..." He then proceeded to sing and dance.
By the time the song and dance routine had ended, Mega Man was curled up in the corner. "...I need an adult..."
"I'm right here, Mega Man," Dr. Light said through the communicator. "You can handle this."
"Are you sure-"
Love Machine suddenly hurled a small device in the shape of a button at Mega Man. When it stuck to him, he shivered as he felt a good portion of his energy being drained and he fell over backwards. "What the...?"
"I just love to push your buttons!" Love Machine proclaimed. "Was it good for you?"
Mega Man's eyes slowly narrowed, and he leapt at Love Machine with a roar, grabbing the Wub Master by the neck, pinning him to the floor, and proceeding to smash its face in with repeated punches until it eventually exploded, immolating the entire store.
As Mega Man beamed back home to get cleaned up and repaired, something chimed.
As Dr. Light worked to repair Mega Man, he stared morosely at his credit card bill. Who in their right mind would charge me for the damages like that-oh, each of those places belongs to Wily. ...so it's now on my records that in one day I spent over $2 million on porn, sex toys, erotic baked goods, hookers, and lingerie. He groaned as he worked. ...god damn it, Vinyl...
(1) This one was suggested by my Mom. She knows of an actual location of this sort in San Francisco.
Damn...You have one hell of a momma.
Daaaamn, total overkill. Also, what is the name of Wub master? Love machine? HILARIOUS!
Man. That is some kind of revenge right there.
Might not be causing any real pain, but that's a shame that'll last a looooooooooooooong time indeed.
Vinyl is good at this, and I'm taking notes.
Please, no more, I am simultaneously disgusted and ROFLMAO.
......I laughed so hard at that little note at the end that I pee'd a little bit
by the end of this mega man is going to be more traumatized than the heights jumping segment
Why is it that the child is outsmarting the entire law enforcement and the adults?
Dr Light is going to learn from a way or another to never... NEVER, separate her from his daddy. And that revenge is a dish served cold and very expensive.
That was interesting. Looking forward to more.
Keep up the good work. Merry Christmas!
I thought it was a reference to that one simpson episode where Marge accidentally winds up at an erotic bakery....
More of kind of jokes. I beg you.
...Honestly when I first saw 'Bakery' I thought of Cupcakes... And flying Penises? I think you've been playing too much Saints Row.
Man, Vinyl really is evil
A very interesting suggestion from family.
How is your mother doing, Tatsu? Is she in good health?
6782762
Not really, no. She's still trying to get back on her feet and learn to walk again.
6782731 because it Vinyl thats why
6782762
His mother is awesome.
What's next a boring insurance agent robot where you need to wait in long lines and all those boring things there, if this actually happens then that be the most boring chapter you ever made.

Well, this is a Capcom world. Presumably the local law enforcement agencies are busy dealing with rampant street gang violence, shadowy underworld-worldwide fighting tournaments, zombie outbreaks, corrupt militarized pharmaceutical corporations, and other such things. Or because the trope adults are useless is in effect.
Huh? I don't get it.
... Ohhh, I get it now.
... I don't know how to feel about this. On the one hand, this is one of the only straight things from a Mega Man fanfiction I've read (The curse of any game where there are a bunch of dudes: There's way too much yaoi, and the few works that aren't are disturbing in some fashion). On the other hand, this is disturbing in some fashion.
Pfft, it's even more terrible than I could have imagined; I just thought they had to pay off a bill, but all the stuff is mentioned?! Hilarious.
... How on Earth did that conversation go?
{Mom: Hey, so what are you doing?
Tatsurou: Writing a chapter where Mega Man has to take out a robot master in a red-light district.
Mom: Oh, I've got the PERFECT idea for that!}
Geeze, if my mom ever did that to me... I would have so many questions.
You're all laughing your collective butts off, and I'm sitting here feeling bad for the shit MegaMan has to put up with, just because he didn't have the choice not to before. Not that Wily, Light, or MM will explain that to Vinyl anytime soon.
6782766 What happend?
6782866
It's a long story.
6782839
My Mom's just cool like that.
She has so many stories of her younger years.
Another enjoyable chapter. Great job.
6782889 Ah, it's cool to have a cool mom.
No offense, friend, but I don' t think this warrants an E rating anymore.
6782904
Yes. Yes it is.
Okay. I don't want this romhack anymore... Nope nope nope nope...
Next time Vinyl builds the robot masters, Light is going to send in Machoist Man instead because Megaman won't do it!
I don't even have words for how happy this chapter made me. It's cruel, raunchy, and very very cunning of Vinyl. I wonder if Dr. Light's credit company will do a fraud prevention thing where he has to confirm that, yes, he did spend $2 million on sexy times. I would love to see that chat log or hear that conversation.
I can't believe your mom's supportive enough to let you write something like this. Most parents would consider this chapter to be indecent at best.
6783013
I'm 28. It's not a concern.
6782886 I believe she's waited long enough.
6783030 Oh. How's your mom... if I may ask?
.......wow i got no words for that intire thing......
in the word of George Takei: OH MYYYY
Oh, Vinyl is freaking evil. I think I now love to hate her.
E for Everyone.
6783313
Well... everyone does include EVERYONE...
6782757 You can never play too much SR
I'm 25, and I felt like I needed an adult.
PLEASE tell me these last two robots are all that Vinyl made with dirty jokes in mind.
6783422
Umm...define dirty.
As someone who's had to search bags at gay pride and had to search a literal bag of dicks I ask, is that the best you got?
(Seriously, a bag of... much enjoyed dildos. I burned that pair of work gloves when I got home.)
Vinal is EVIL!
Tatsurou's original Robot Masters. You know, for kids!
6783766 I wanted a Giganto toy, but Toys R Us only had Love Machine. He originally had karate chop action...
Guys, I just binged on Team Fortress Fluttershy and read the Octavia Mega Man X stories. It was nice, cute, and awesome. Then I came to this Mega Man story which used to have those qualities... I need an adult, my inner child needs an adult, and my soft side needs an adult.
Well we alomst had the I need an Adult joke but TATS FAILED US!
Vinyl polled Anonymous and Spacebattles Forums, didn't she?
