Mega Man VII Rundown
In the year 20XX, thanks to the efforts of Mega Man and his friends, Dr. Wily was finally brought to justice after several years of battles, much to the delight of the world. The people breathed a long sigh of relief as the jail cell door on Wily's cell was shut, hopefully for good...
However, Wily had planned for just such an occasion. He had always known that one day, his plans might come to an end at Mega Man's hands, and so he had constructed four backup Robot Masters in a hidden lab. If they did not receive a communication from their master within 6 months, they would activate... and begin searching for their master.
After 6 months, the robots activate and carry out their intended function, going on a rampage through the city Dr. Wily was being held in and carving a path of destruction in their wake.
Mega Man, who had been enjoying the peace that Wily's captivity had brought, immediately caught wind of the situation and was called into action. Upon driving into the city, Mega Man, who was with Roll and Auto, saw that the city was in ruins. The road is too unstable to keep going, and so, gaining his helmet, Mega Man pressed forwards on foot and found Dr. Light and Rush, who were both presumably already in the city when the attack began. Dr. Light calls his attention to the sight of the large prison in the distance as four small objects, Wily's Robot Masters, streak towards it. As they look on, the prison explodes, and Wily is freed. Mega Man gave chase, destroying many of Wily's troops until he meets Bass, a robot with capabilities much like Mega Man's own, and his robotic dog Treble. After a brief battle, Mega Man is informed that Bass and Treble are battling Wily as well. Bass then teleports away, leaving Mega Man still confused.
Afterwards, Mega Man goes after the four Robot Masters and faces them while collecting the pieces to the new "Super Adapter" upgrade that are found in their domains.
After defeating the four, (Cloud Man, Freeze Man, Burst Man, and Junk Man), Dr. Light informs him that Wily has attacked the "Robot Masters' Museum". Mega Man sets out for it and defeats a clown-type robot called Mash in time to see Dr. Wily airlift Guts Man through a hole in the roof.
After returning to the lab, Dr. Light tells Mega Man that four more Robot Masters are tearing up the city, so he goes to defeat them as well. During his journey, he meets up with Proto Man who wishes to see which of the two Dr. Light made stronger, and upon defeating him, he is given the "Proto Shield" item.
Shortly prior to facing Shade Man, Mega Man comes across a damaged Bass. Mega Man tells Bass to go to Dr. Light's laboratory for repairs.
Once all of the Robot Masters have been defeated, Mega Man returns to the lab and finds it half-totaled. Dr. Light is fortunately unharmed, but he tells Mega Man that Bass was the culprit. Bass and Treble had apparently been one of Dr. Wily's creations all along. Bass had ransacked the lab, taking a copy of the blueprints for Dr. Light's new upgrade, the Super Adapter. Wily then comes on the damaged lab screen and taunts Mega Man.
Armed with new knowledge, eight robot master weapons, and the determination to bring an end to the conflict, Mega Man sets out for Dr. Wily's Skull Castle. Mega Man then fights his way through Dr. Wily's minions, including the reprogrammed Guts Man that Dr. Wily airlifted out of the robot master museum previously.
Eventually, Mega Man comes across Bass. Bass uses the Treble Boost, an upgrade Dr. Wily created for him out of Dr. Light's Super Adapter blueprints, to merge with Treble and give him more power and the ability to fly, much like the Super Adapter gives Mega Man. Despite the tipped odds, Mega Man defeats Bass.
Mega Man and Wily have a showdown, in which Mega Man is ultimately victorious. In the end, Wily begs for mercy as is routine by this time, but Mega Man walks over and aims his Mega Buster at Wily. This naturally scares Wily out of his wits, and he falls to the floor, slowly sliding back into the wall. Mega Man quietly ponders whether he should do what he says he should have done years ago. Wily reminds Mega Man that if he kills Wily, he will be dismantled as all harmful robots have before him.
Mega Man tells him that he is much, much more than a robot. He is about to shoot, but he takes much longer than he needs to: he appears to have had an attack of conscience. At that moment, the fortress begins to collapse. A steel girder falls on Wily as the room begins to shake wildly, but Mega Man keeps his aim true. Before he can shoot, however, Treble beams in and warps out with Wily. Bass teleports in as well, and tells Mega Man that "He who hesitates is lost" and "we shall return." before teleporting back out.
Mega Man vacates the fortress and slowly walks away, alternating from blankness to fury as the credits roll and the fortress explodes behind him. He reaches Big Eddie's, where Dr. Light, Rush, Beat, Auto, and Roll are all waiting for him.
