Mega Man Legends (Series)

The ***Mega Man Legends*** series made its debut on December 18, 1997 in Japan on the Sony PlayStation, in North America on August 31, 1998, and in Europe on December 4, 1998. In Japan, the series is called ***Rockman DASH*** (ロクマン DASH / *Rokkuman DASH).* "DASH" is an acronym that stands for "**D**igouter's **A**dventure **S**tories in the **H**alcyon Days."  In Greek mythology, the "Halcyon Days" are a period of seven days in the winter when the storms are calmed, allowing the Halcyon bird to lay her eggs in safety.

The story is centered around the main character, Mega Man Volnutt, his partner Roll Caskett, Roll's grandfather Barrell Caskett, and Mega Man's pet monkey Data, traveling the world, going on digs in the underground ruins, in search of Quantum Refractors. They encounter and fight against many different adversaries, such as Reaverbots and Air Pirates, as they search for the legendary Mother Lode, in the hopes that it will lead them to Roll's missing parents.

## *Mega Man Legends* Timeline

It is unknown when exactly the events of Mega Man Legends happen in the overall Mega Man timeline, as some sources place the Mega Man Legends series several thousand years after the *Mega Man ZX* series, and other sources claiming it is completely separate from the rest of the Mega Man series.

The events of the *Mega Man Legends* series, those leading up to it and including it, are as follows:

### Thousands of years in the past

It is unknown the exact points in time and order that some of the following events take place in..

* The original humans (the Ancients) or The Master find or create Elysium—a Heaven-like society—thousands of years before *Mega Man Legends*.

* The Elder System is shut down and the Master System replaces it.
* Most of the original humans die from unknown causes.
* Carbons (artificial humans) are created.

* The last human, The Master, asks Mega Man Trigger to take him to Terra (Earth).
* The Master gives Mega Man Trigger the sample of his genetic code and asks him to destroy the Master System as his final dying wish. The Master had lived on Elysium for three thousand years.
* Because The Master could not live long outside of Elysium, he dies down on Terra.
* Mega Man Trigger attempts to shut down the Master System according to the Master's wishes.
* Mega Man Trigger creates Data in order to preserve his memories, especially those related to the Master, so that they could not be scanned or tampered with by the System.
* Yuna takes a neutral position after first having opposed Trigger for some time.
* Frustrated with Yuna's decision, Sera travels to Terra to fight Trigger and they battle to a standstill, each expending all their energy in the fight.
* Yuna takes that opportunity to seal both of them away inside stasis fields. As Trigger was heavily damaged, his body had to be reset to his original configuration, becoming a young child without memories about his past.
* Trigger is sealed with Data in the ruins underneath Nino Island, and Sera with Geetz on Forbidden Island.
* Yuna then seals the four keys needed to activate the Carbon Reinitialization Program in four different ruins around the world.

* At some point the planet is covered in endless water, and, as such, the population exists on a series of small landmasses called islands.
* An energy crisis breaks out, and the remaining inhabitants of the world are unable to power machinery.
* In order to to find a resolution to the energy problem, Refractors are mined from the ancient underground ruins by explorers (or miners) called "Diggers". The Main Diver being the one who goes underground. They are often assisted by Spotters who use computers to track Reaverbots via radar and guide the Main Diver with a communicator.
* Among the Diggers, there is a legend about a mysterious treasure known as the Mother Lode, and many Diggers search for it.

* Sera's sealing by Yuna and the four keys to Elysium's Library becomes known to the Carbons as a legend of two goddesses.

* Yuna stays on Forbidden Island to watch over Sera, keeping anyone who ventures to the island from finding her by sealing them away.

### In the last 100 years before *Mega Man Legends*

* Kattelox Island is discovered by adventurers John and Varley around 100 years before *Mega Man Legends*.
* Barrell Caskett is born 65 years before *Mega Man Legends*.
* Some 40 years after the discovery of Kattelox Island, high-quality Refractors and the Underground Ruins are discovered beneath the island.
* Due to the dangers of the underground ruins, the majority of these ruins are sealed off from the general public.
* Possibly due to the remnants of several different civilizations on the island, it is rumored that a legendary disaster happens every 100 years when an undefined presence that resides beneath the island awakens and destroys all life present on it.
* Over 30 years before *Mega Man Legends 2*, Barrell Caskett and Verner Von Bluecher venture to Forbidden Island.
* After traveling the island, they eventually lose consciousness due to exhaustion, and Yuna rescues them and takes them to Yosyonke.
* Teisel Bonne is born 29 years before *Mega Man Legends*.
* Tron Bonne and Roll Caskett are born 14 years before *Mega Man Legends*.

* 10 years before *Mega Man Legends 2*, Roll's parents, Banner and Matilda Caskett, venture to Forbidden Island and land there using Banner's Dropship.
* Something happens to them while they are on Forbidden Island, and they go missing.
* Yuna finds Matilda dying. In order to save her, Yuna uses the nanotechnologies of her body to treat the injures, but she uses too much energy and parts from her own body, her body could not move and she had to borrow Matilda's body until her own was restored.
* Banner is found heavily injured and with amnesia near Yosyonke.
* Without his memories, he is given the name Joe.
* He has the feeling that he lost something important on Forbidden Island. As he still had the dropship blueprints with him when he was discovered, he begins working on a new Dropship.

* With the disappearance of his daughter and son-in-law, Barrell raises his granddaughter.
* Mega Man Trigger and Data are found by Barrell Caskett inside the Nino Ruins. As he entered the ruins without permission, Barrell could not reveal where he found them, and decided to raise the child alongside his granddaughter.
* Roll names him Mega Man Volnutt. (In the Japanese version, Barrell names him Rock to make a pun with Roll's name.)

* Bon Bonne is born 3 years before *Mega Man Legends*.
* The Bonne's mother passes away.

### *The Misadventures of Tron Bonne*

The story of this game is set before the events of *Mega Man Legends.* Unknown to Tron Bonne, Bon Bonne, and the Servbots, Teisel Bonne, the leader of the Bonne Family of Air Pirates, borrowed one million Zenny from Lex Loath to be able to finance the construction of their flying machine, the Gesellschaft. With the flying machine being completed, he went with Bon Bonne to the Nakkai Ruins on Ryship Island to find a Refractor, known as Diana's Tear, to pay his debt. Before he can accomplish this, one of Loath's men, Glyde, quickly defeats him, and captures him and Bon, saying that the deadline for payment is long over and that he will now work it off under the Loath family.

The Gesellschaft loses contact with Teisel. Worried about her brothers' whereabouts, Tron goes to his last known location with a Drache, finding the Gustaff broken and the Servbots that were with him scared and crying. The Servbots tell her what happened, and they return to the Gesellschaft, where they find Teisel's IOU receipt. Tron is shocked by how much money he owes the Loath family. However, Tron becomes determined to obtain enough money to pay off the debt and rescue her siblings.

Tron and the Servbots begin to steal valuables from the island. The player is able to choose which area to go to. These areas vary from going on digs in the Nakkai and Shala-Kun Ruins, stealing containers from harbors, and stealing animals from the Sart Farm. The Servbots can also gamble at the Loath Casino.

When they attack Gold City, they must face the police. This includes Denise, who gives her best to stop Tron, but has no such luck and is scolded by her captain. Tron shows some sympathy toward Denise's misfortune.

After obtaining the needed money, they go after Loath and pay the debt to free her brothers, but Loath says it is not enough as they must also pay the interest on it. He tells them that they still owe two million zenny and throws them out of his hideout.

The Bonnes continue stealing from the island until the new amount of money is obtained, and search for Loath to pay the debt. Servbot #15 finds him in a warehouse from Primiki Harbor. However, Loath says they are still short as they need to pay interest on their interest. Loath then captures Tron to force her to work for him, as well, in order to help Teisel and Bon work off the debt.

Inside Loath's dungeon, Tron finds her brothers. Teisel tells her Loath's plan to make people work for him to find a legendary Reaverbot apparently known as the Colossus. The Servbots decide that they need to rescue the Bonnes.

The Servbots eventually manage to find Tron, Teisel, and Bon in Loath's hideout. The Bonnes then decide to steal everything that Loath has found.

When they reach a room that is being excavated to uncover the Colossus, Glyde appears and fights against the the Bonnes and their Gustaff. Tron decides that she will pilot the machine. After Glyde's defeat, Loath activates the Colossus using a golden Refractor, and the Bonnes escape from the collapsing dungeon, returning to the Gesellschaft. They try to face the Colossus, but the Gesellschaft's weapons are ineffective against it, and Tron is injured by its attacks and passes out.

The favorite Servbot then decides that he will face the Loath family and fight the Colossus impressing the other Servbots. The Servbots then take the Gustaff and confront the Colossus. They take out its power supplies and destroy the head during a battle.

After the Servbots defeat the Colossus and stop the Loaths, Tron is shown to be better and praises them. Teisel notices how much Tron had grown, wondering how he would explain himself to their departed mother if she saw Tron running around shooting at everything. However, he says she did good and is proud of her.

Using a Drache, Tron reluctantly rescues Loath and Glyde from the water and ties them up. She secretly sends them to Denise to help her keep her job as a police officer. Tron tells Teisel she only wants to make sure Loath will not cause trouble again.

When the Bonnes are commemorating their victory in the Gesellschaft, Tron discovers the favorite Servbot had thrown away the Colossus' golden Refractor by accident. Tron then becomes furious, saying she has something really special waiting for him in the Torture Room.

### *Mega Man Legends*

Mega Man Volnutt is a digger who searches the Underground Ruins with the Caskett family. The crew consists of Roll Caskett (Mega Man's Spotter and best friend), Barrell Caskett (Roll's grandfather), and Data (a monkey that only Mega Man is able to understand).

Together, they are in search of the Mother Lode in the hopes that it will lead them to find Roll's parents

After Mega Man completes a dig in the Ocean Tower, their flying machine, the Flutter, experiences engine trouble and causes them to have to crash on the nearby Kattelox Island.

After speaking with the Kattelox Police and The Inspector, Mega Man decides to look for parts to repair the Flutter in the local Apple Market. After learning that there are no parts available that can be used in the repairs, Mega Man and Roll decide they will have to go on digs throughout the Island to find the necessary equipment to repair the Flutter.

While on Kattelox Island, Mega Man and the Caskett family come into contact with the Bonnes, a group of air pirates who are also seeking Quantum Refractors (and ultimately the Mother Lode). The Bonnes are led by Teisel Bonne, and consist of his siblings, Tron (a mechanical genius), and Bon (the youngest member of the Bonne family, being only three years old). The Bonnes also use Servbots to do their bidding.

Throughout the game, they fight against the Bonnes in order to protect Kattelox Island from their attack and fend them off from the Underground Ruins.

Another point to the story is Mega Man and Roll trying to solve the mystery of the legendary disaster that is rumored to happen on Kattelox Island every one-hundred years at the request of the Mayor of Kattelox Island, Amelia.

After Mega Man finds a large enough Refractor to repair the Flutter, he and Roll decide to explore the Clozer Woods in order to solve the mystery of the legendary disaster of Kattelox Island. While there, Mega Man finds that the ruins on the island are connected to something called the Main Gate, which he activates.

On the way back from the Clozer Woods, the Bonnes attack them and engage them in an aerial battle between the Bonnes' massive flying machine, the Gesselschaft, and their flying machine, the Flutter. After defeating the Bonnes, their Gesselschaft, Draches, and the Focke-Wulf, Mega Man and Roll are unsure if the Bonnes could have survived the explosion.

Inside the Main Gate, Mega Man finds a control panel that unlocks three Sub-Gates known as the Sub-Cities. He activates them to further investigate the Main Gate.

Mega Man finds the Bonnes are still alive in a warehouse in the Old City. He battles them one more time, this time against their strongest machine yet, Theodore Bruno. After defeating them again, they part ways, the Bonnes having accepted defeat.

Mega Man proceeds to investigate the three Sub-Cities and finds three keys—the Sleeper, Dreamer, and Watcher keys.

Mega Man uses the three keys to unlock three more doors within the Main Gate.

In the next room of the Main Gate, a man calling himself Mega Man Juno, a Bureaucratic Model (known as a Third-Class Purging Officer in Japan). Juno reveals that Mega Man Volnutt is actually Mega Man Trigger, and tells Mega Man that the island's population, which is made up of Carbons (artificially created humans) needs to be reinitialized to prevent overpopulating. Mega Man makes the determination that Juno is referring to the people on the island.

Juno says that he believes that Mega Man must be suffering from memory loss and sets off a trap paralyzes him to recover his memory after the reinitialization. The Bonnes help him escape the electric trap.

Mega Man then prepares for a final confrontation with Mega Man Juno. After reaching the final room of the Main Gate, Juno explains to Mega Man that he has activated a space station known as Eden. It has been instructed to launch an explosive device down to Kattelox Island that will destroy it and all of the Carbons present on the island.

Mega Man confronts Juno in a battle in an attempt to stop him from completing the reinitialization program. In the end, Juno is defeated. However, even with his physical body destroyed, Juno is still able to continue the reinitialization program. He transfers his memory to Eden, which he instructs to create a backup of his program data and continue the reinitialization of the island. Juno then shuts down and explodes.

Surprisingly, Data gives a new set of commands which halt the process of reinitialization. Data uses Mega Man's former identity as a Purifier Unit (First-Class Purging Officer in Japan). Data also deletes Mega Man Juno's back-up memory from Eden.

Data then informs Mega Man that he contains his memories from the past, but can't reveal anything yet. Data promises to return them to him when the time is right. Mega Man regains contact with Roll, who has been waiting for him on the surface. After explaining that he is alright, he decides to return from the Main Gate.

The people of Kattelox Island proclaim Mega Man and the Casketts as heroes. After Mega Man says his goodbyes to everyone on the island, he, Roll, Barrell, and Data prepare to fly off in the newly-repaired Flutter.

After they lift off into the sky, the residents of Kattelox gather on a mountain at the edge of the island to say their goodbyes to them one more time.

After one last farewell, they set off to continue their adventures in search of the legendary Mother Lode and Roll's parents.

Meanwhile, the Bonnes trail behind in a boat made of broken parts with a large rainbow-colored Quantum Refractor that they found in the Main Gate.

### Rockman DASH: 5tsu no Shima no Daibouken!

Mega Man Volnutt and Roll Caskett are going to meet up with Barrell Caskett, who is currently away investigating an island.

On the way there, Roll tests a new feature for the Flutter called the "Charge Drive" that is intended to increase its speed. The Charge Drive was too powerful and shortly consumed all the energy from the engine, shattering its Refractor, causing them to crash land on Sealoss Island.

Mega Man goes on a dig in the local ruins to find a new Refractor for the Flutter. Coincidentally, the Bonne family is also on the island, and they decide to steal whatever treasure Mega Man finds in the ruins as a payback for what he did to them back on Kattelox Island. After completing the ruin, Mega Man finds a new Refractor for the Flutter. The Bonnes then take away his Refractor and run to a town that they had taken over. Mega Man frees the town and goes after the Bonnes, recovering the Refractor. Mega Man and Roll use the Refractor to replace the shattered one in the Flutter and can then leave the island.

Mega Man and Roll continue their journey, and the Flutter which had not been fully repaired crash lands on Pauran Island, an island said to have a cursed treasure. They search for parts to repair the Flutter's engine and fight against the Bonnes again.

While professor Barrell was visiting Ilux Island to investigate a possible "catastrophe", the police stayed on high alert to protect him. When Mega Man and Roll finally arrive on the island, Mega Man goes to search for Barrell. While he was looking for Barrell in the town, the policewoman Denise thinks he is a criminal attempting to cause harm to Barrell, and the police start a hot pursuit to get him. After some fighting, Mega Man escapes through the town's sewers and must find Barrell to clear up the misunderstanding.

After exploring a ruin on Ilux island, Barrell asks Mega Man to continue investigating the supposed catastrophe. These leads Mega Man and Roll to travel to another island.

When they reach Urakoi Island, something is wrong with its ruins and large volcano, which is rumored to soon erupt and block the sun with its ashes, affecting the environment drastically. Mega Man must explore the island's ruins to find a solution before it's too late. On the island, Mega Man discovers ancient equipment that can create Refractors by using magma as energy, but for unknown reasons, it can only produce low-grade Refractors.

When Mega Man and Roll are returning home, they discover an enormous structure of towers that has risen out of the sea, one large ancient tower with three smaller towers nearby. Believing they may be related to the Mother Lode, they investigate the tower's ruins, which contains dangerous traps and fierce Reaverbots.

When Mega Man reaches the top, he must face a giant version of one of the Karamuna Bash. After he defeats the Reaverbot, he finds a broken elevator terminal with the obscured term "HEAVEN" written in ancient text, but doesn't understand what it means. Additionally, Mega Man infers the damaged top of the tower indicates it may have once been even taller, implying it would have been an orbital elevator of some kind.

After concluding the investigation into the four towers, Mega Man and Roll leave th area and continue on their adventures.

### *Mega Man Legends 2*

One year after the events on Kattelox Island, a press conference is being held by Verner Von Bluecher, who has invited Barrell Caskett, his old friend.

Mega Man and Roll watch from the Flutter on TV. Von Bleucher claims that his new ship, the Sulphur-Bottom, is capable of landing on the Forbidden Island, a feat which has been met with extremely limited success by most diggers, including Von Bleucher and Barrell, who themselves tried this 30 years ago. Upon their last attempt, after having landed on the island, they saw a mysterious girl and then lost consciousness and awoke on an island of "eternal winter".

This seems to be the case with nearly everyone who attempts to land on the Forbidden Island. What's more, the island is surrounded by a thick and nearly impenetrable storm. Von Bleucher believes that the Mother Lode is located on that island and that with his new ship, he will be able to find it and end the world's energy problems. After they talk, a reporter stands up and begins to question them about the people who travel to the island and go missing. She also tells them that the Mother Lode isn't a treasure at all, but a disaster waiting to happen. When Barrell gets a look at her face, he says, "Matilda...?" He sees that the woman before them looks exactly like his daughter, and Roll's mother.

The security guards open fire at the woman, but then she manages to evade them and jumps out of a window and then is seen riding away on what appears to be a Reaverbot. The flying entity returns fire at the Sulphur-Bottom, accidentally damaging the engine while trying to protect the woman aboard it.

The Sulphur-Bottom flies out of control and heads toward the Forbidden Island.

Mega Man and Roll watch all of this unfold from their TV. Roll says that the woman looked exactly like her mother, and wants to find out if this is the case. After deciding what they are going to do, they intend to catch up with the Sulphur-Bottom in order to save Barrell.

While on the trail of the Sulphur-Bottom, Data accidentally sets fire to the interior of the Flutter while attempting to cook pizza (takoyaki in Japan). Mega Man manages to save the ship, put out all of the fire, and rescue Data.

They land on the Continent of Calinca and intend to visit a Junk Shop in Yosyonke City to find parts to build a ship that can penetrate the clouds surrounding the Forbidden Island—a Dropship. This was a ship that Roll's father had designed for him and his wife Matilda to be able to land on Forbidden Island.

Mega Man and Roll learn of a man named Joe that has a craft that looks just like the one in the blueprints left behind by Roll's parents. Joe, a man in fragile condition, has gone to excavate some ruins to find a Refractor for his ship and hasn't come back, so Mega Man goes after him. Mega Man and Roll find him injured inside of the ruin, and after Mega Man defeats the boss Reaverbot, and retrieves the Refractor, they bring him back to town.

Unfortunately Joe has had amnesia for the past ten years and cannot remember anything about his past life. He was found badly injured and taken in by Maria—a bartender in Yosyonke. He does, however, have a picture of Roll's family.

He does let them use his ship, the Dropship to be able to land on Forbidden Island, however.

Mega Man uses the Dropship to land on Forbidden Island, and eventually faces off with the large guardian Reaverbot, Rush Mamoo.

After defeating the Reaverbot an enormous crystal begins to glow and disintegrate, a young woman appears from the crystal along with a man.

The storm around Forbidden Island has stopped and the Sulphur-Bottom is now safe, having held up through the storm.

Everyone rendezvous on the Sulphur-Bottom where the young woman is revealed to be the Mother Unit, Sera, and the man, her Servitor Unit Geetz.

They explain to Mega Man, Roll, Barrell, and Von Bluecher that if they want the Mother Lode, they must first find the Four Keys to the Mother Lode. Then they will have access to unimaginable treasure and advanced technology that has been lost to time.

Mega Man and Roll are convinced by Von Bluecher to start a search for the keys.

They first travel to Manda Island, where at Pokte Village they run into Tron Bonne once again. After Mega Man defeats her and her new machine, he enters the Manda Ruins to search for the first key.

While in the ruin, he comes across another pirate named Bola, who is also after the keys to the Mother Lode and Mega Man must first fight him and defeat him to reach the end of the ruin.

After defeating the guardian Reaverbot, Gargarfumi, Mega Man is able to retrieve the first key.

While on the way to find the second key on Nino Island, the Flutter is shot out of the sky by the Guild Master of Ruminoa City on Nino Island.

After realizing it was a misunderstanding, and that Mega Man and Roll were not pirates, the Guild Master apologizes and explains that they have recently been under siege by a group of air pirates.

While attempting to fix the Flutter, Ruminoa city is once again attacked by these pirates. The pirates are non other then Glyde Gang. Mega Man is eventually able to fend off the Birdbots and their machines, but they fear that they will return soon.

Mega Man and Roll then head to their base of operations on the nearby Calbania Island to put a stop to them once and for all.

While there, Mega Man meets Appo and Dah who he helps to rescue their older sister, Shu from the Birdbots. After rescuing Shu and destroying the Birdbots base, Mega Man returns to Nino Island.

Once back on Nino Island Mega Man and Roll face off with the Birdbots and Glyde one more time. Roll repairs their secret weapon, the Parabola Gun, while Mega Man fends of Glydes ship. Once the Parabola Gun is repaired, they use it against them and causes the enemies to laugh and destroy their own ship.

With Nino Island now safe from Glyde and the Birdbots, Mega Man enters the Nino Island Ruins.

While there he runs into another pirate, who is the partner of Bola, named Klaymoor. After fighting him, Mega Man retrieves the second key only to encounter Klaymoor for a second time on the way back up to the surface. After Klaymoor's back goes out, the battle is over and then Mega Man returns to the surface with the second key.

Mega Man and Roll then head to Saul Kada Island where they encounter Teisel and the Bonnes again. After battling through them and defeating them and rescuing the people of the city, Mega Man is able to enter the ruin and search for the third key.

Mega Man encounters Tron and Bon Bonne again and after getting past the giant Guardian reaverbot, Wojigairon, is able to defeat the Bonnes again and escape the ruin with the third key.

After returning to Yosyonke to search for the fourth and final key, Mega Man and Roll discover that all of the pirates have teamed up to defeat them and are preparing to use a newly modified train to attack the city. Joe helps them battle the pirates by letting them use a train he modified. Mega Man and Roll go on to engage the Bonnes and other Gylde Gang, and the other pirates in a battle between the two trains, Mega Man and Roll are able to defeat the pirates yet again.

Mega Man then enters the Calinca Ruins to search for the fourth key. After reaching the bottom of the ice and snow covered ruin, Mega Man is able to locate the final key. On his way out of the key room, the Guardian Reaverbot, Rimblemenji attacks him in an attempt to protect the key.

Mega Man is eventually able to defeat the Reaverbot, and escape the ruin with the final key.

After Mega Man and Roll return to the Sulphur-Bottom and gather all four of the keys, Geetz takes control of the Sulphur-Bottom by assimilating it, and Sera steals the keys, and escapes the ship, attempting to return to the Heaven-like world of Elysium.

Gatz removes Geetz from the Sulphur-Bottom's systems, but fails to defeat him in combat. Mega Man arrives at the top of the ship to battle Geetz and eventually defeats him, only for Geetz to sacrifice himself in a final attack meant to kill Mega Man.

While comatose, Mega Man's past is revealed to him. Several thousand years ago, the last remaining human on Earth, The Master, ruled over Elysium and all of its people. In those days Mega Man was a Purifier Unit, as previously revealed to him by Juno. It's also revealed the people on Terra were created to replace the human presence on Terra. They are referred to as Carbons. The Master shared a close bond with Mega Man Trigger that Sera was very envious of. Eventually the Master realized that he no longer agreed with the Master System after he requested Mega Man to take him down to Terra to observe the lives on the Carbons. He decided that the execution of the carbons was wrong and asked Mega Man Trigger to destroy the Master System in order to protect them. The Master eventually died from leaving Elysium and being on Terra for too long, leaving his genetic code with Trigger.

Mega Man Trigger had fought a long battle to take the system down, fighting against the Units of the system. Yuna, the Mother Unit of Terra, after fighting with Mega Man for some time, eventually became neutral in the conflict. Sera, however, came to Terra to personally deal with Trigger to finish the conflict. Outside of Elysium both were weakened and fought to a stalemate. Yuna seized the moment and locked the two in stasis fields on separate islands.

Trigger had to reset his system in order to heal, but in doing so he would lose his memories. To avoid this, his memories were downloaded into Data. Several years later, it was Barrell Casket that came upon this stasis field in the ruins of Nino Island. When he touched the field it melted and a baby and mechanical monkey appeared. He decided to raise the baby, along with his granddaughter Roll. The story of Roll's parents is also revealed somewhat.

They went to the Forbidden Island ten years ago in search of the Mother Lode but never returned. Yuna found Matilda, hurt and dying, and took pity on her. She used her powers in order to repair her body, but in doing so she expended far too much of her own energy. As a result, the only way to save herself was to merge with Matilda, essentially "borrowing" her body. In doing so, she was no longer recognized as a Mother Unit, having lost her original shell (but this also meant that she no longer had to stick to the parameters of the system).

Mega Man finally regains consciousness after having been healed by his backup memories that he had previously downloaded onto Data during his time as a Purifier Unit. Roll tells Mega Man that it is up to him on what he wants to do now, and Mega Man eventually decides to return to Elysium to confront Sera.

Mega Man and Roll return to Calbania Island where The Master had left his Shuttle Pod. Mega Man and Yuna take the Shuttle Pod in order to reach Elysium.

After making his way through the Defense Zone, Residential Zone, and Mother Zone, Mega Man finally reaches the Library where all of the original humans genetic codes are stored to be regenerated.

Sera tries to perform the Carbon Reinitialization Program, but she pauses it as she waits for Mega Man. She intends to recover the Master's genetic code from Mega Man Trigger and then begin the reinitialization. Mega Man resolves to defeat her in battle and destroy the Master System, preventing the Carbon Reinitialization Program from ever taking place.

After a long battle that ends with Mega Man and Sera fighting in the skies of Elysium, Sera's original shell is damaged.

After Mega Man ends the battle with Sera, the Carbon Reinitialization program has been permanently shut down along with the entirety of the Master System. Yuna appears to explain that with the Master System now gone, the old System that The Master's people shut down—which the Master System had replaced thousands of years ago at its creation—has begun activating again throughout Terra. Yuna explains that the underground labyrinths that the Carbons know as the "Underground Ruins" are the many remnants of this old System that are reactivating now.

Unfortunately, Mega Man, Yuna, and Sera who is now inside Yuna's original body are trapped on Elysium with no way to return to Terra to protect it from the Elder System's reactivation.

Mega Man then tells them that there is nothing to worry about because Roll will come looking for them no matter happens.

After the credits roll, a rocket is shown lifting off from the ground on what appears to be Calbania Island and into the sky. The rocket explodes after only a few short seconds. Barrell, Von Bluecher, and Teisel are seen sitting on a bench claiming that it was the tenth failed rocket launch.

Meanwhile, Roll and Tron are fighting with each other about what went wrong with the latest rocket launch. Roll claims that the parts they used were unacceptable and cheaply made while Tron says that they couldn't possibly spend as much money as it would cost to have any better parts than that.

While they fight, Data interrupts to try and explain what they would have to do. They yell at him to stay out of it and he falls to the ground.

Data sadly walks away and looks up into the sky toward Elysium. He apologizes and states that Mega Man will have to wait a little bit longer to be rescued from Elysium and returned back to Terra.

Tron then starts to question how Mega Man is doing, and Roll states that they have to finish building this rocket so that they can finally go and get him.

Text then appears on the screen that reads, "The End."

However, she wasn't able to bring her full power to bear outside of Elysium, and the two of you fought each other to a standstill, each of you expending all your energy. Yuna took that opportunity to seal both of you away inside stasis fields." - Data, *Mega Man Legends 2*
6. ↑ "You're probably wondering why, when you were found, you were in a baby's body. That's because your original body was almost totally destroyed in your fight with Sera. We had no choice but to reset all your parameters so you could heal. Although resetting a unit flushes its memory, it also restores its body to its original configuration. To make sure Sera never found the Master's genetic code, you transferred all essential data files to me. That's why you were able to get your memory back even after being reset. Well, most of your memory, anyway. Too bad you couldn't see Gramps' face when he found you, though!" - Data, *Mega Man Legends 2*
7. ↑ "Two goddesses, the same yet different. One goddess to rule the heavens above, one to rule the earth below. She of the earth guards the key, she of the sky guards the record of the ages. When the sky goddess lifts up her voice, all shall end, and all shall begin... What do you think? Interesting little story, isn't it?" - Yosyonke City citizen, *Mega Man Legends 2*
8. ↑ "There is an old legend which says the sky goddess sleeps on Forbidden Island. The legends say that long ago, the world was watched over by two goddesses. One guarded the Keys on the land, the other protected the gates of the sky... One day, when the goddess of the sky came to borrow the Keys from the goddess of the earth, they argued, and the sky goddess was imprisoned by the earth goddess on Forbidden Island. So the legends say. Bluecher believes the Keys of the legend have something to do with the Mother Lode--that is why he went to Forbidden Island." - Yosyonke City priest, *Mega Man Legends 2*
9. ↑ "Many Diggers have tried and failed to explore the aptly-named Forbidden Island. Several Diggers from this city have also journeyed there, but none returned. Only Prof. Barrell and Von Bluecher have been there and back. It is said that if the Mother Lode is anywhere, it must be on that island. Of course, Bluecher and Barrell didn't just land there--they crashed as well. It is said they were rescued by a mysterious girl whose hair was in pigtails." - Yosyonke City priest, *Mega Man Legends 2*

11. ↑ "Once, I found a Carbon on Forbidden Island. She was dying...I transferred some of the nanotechnology from my body to hers to try and heal her. She recovered, but I found that I had used too much energy and parts from my own body--I wasn't able to move anymore! In the end, I ended up "borrowing" her body to use as my own. Don't worry--once this is all over, I'll give her body back to her." - Yuna, *Mega Man Legends 2*

13. ↑ "Once, a long time ago, I went to the ruins on Nino Island to do some research on the civilization that preceded ours. The ruins there are very dangerous, and are normally sealed off. I snuck inside without the Guildmaster's permission. Just inside the entrance, I found a strange, diamond-shaped object. When I touched it, it fell apart--no, melted--and from inside there appeared a small child, a baby, and a monkey. Seeing as I had broken into the ruins without permission I couldn't reveal where I'd found them. So, I decided to raise the baby along with my granddaughter." - Barrell's files from *Mega Man Legends 2*
14. ↑ "But if our dear, departed mother saw the way you run around like that, shooting at everything... How could I ever explain it to her? Still, you did good, Tron! I'm proud of you!" - Teisel Bonne, *The Misadventures of Tron Bonne*
15. ↑ *"Now that Elysium is no longer functioning, the old System the Master's people shut down has started to reactivate.  It was your responsibility to monitor it.  If you die, and it takes over, the Master's work was for nothing!  Do you want that?"* Mega Man Legends 2
16. ↑ *"There are remnants of that System buried all over Terra in what the carbons call ruins. There's so many even I don't know if how many there are. I doubt they've be fully active soon, but eventually they will. If we don't do anything, just imagine what will happen to Terra and all its people. If the Elders and their machines activate, what will your sacrifice here have been for?"* Mega Man Legends 2
