It is critical that the world beLIeve we have lost troops. I expect reports from all outposts within the hour.

"The mission which you order Doctor Wily has been finished. The repLIforcer known as Graivton Mink. You might recall her as the one that one of Scott's creations managed to get her to strip in pubLIc. She made the first attack and we defended out selves. Sword Man delt with some unknown fighter while Magic Man delt with Barrage Raptor. He also pulled off the nice LIttle trick that Wily mentioned us to lower the visabLIty of our human troop counts for which is already under way in Beta Control zone. Now as a bouns not only did I wipe out Griviton Mink but I caught that Hunter Wench ALIa as I was pulLIng out and fully beat some sense into her. I doubt she will be able to LIsten in on any radio transmissions for the next several days." Metal grins at this and footage of him beating ALIa over the head with a crowbar plays. "Anyhow Metal Man out."

Drones in the area spread their perimeter of security to compensate. Record of the existance of 75 Percent of human troops are moved to encrypted files within Skull Haven, and replaced with documentation citing assorted 'desertion', 'casualties', and other such reasons for their dissapearance. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$ Robot Master $$$$$$$$$$$$ Message: 12/34 Posted Author Beta Territory Wed Jan 29 Metal Man ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Within about two hours the levels of notiable human troops in Beta Control zone has also dropped by about 60 percent as well with the same sort of data moving that was done with Delta Territory's as well. -El Ego was here. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$ Robot Master $$$$$$$$$$$$ Message: 12/35 Posted Author Hiatus From Command Wed Jan 29 Sword Man ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Greetings, brothers. As a select few already have heard, effective now, I am stepping down from the position of Commanding Officer of Theta Squad. I need to...refocus and retrain myself, at least until I have made myself worthy of such a position again. Unless there are objections by higher command, I shall let Sir Clown succeed me as Commanding Officer of Theta Squad. Until then, I shall be persuing...other ventures, training being of the utmost importance. I shall still be seeking the escaped Chameleon as I have already committed to. That is all. For the honor and GLory of Wily. *insert Sword Man's signature* $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$ Robot Master $$$$$$$$$$$$ Message: 12/36 Posted Author Omega Territory Wed Jan 29 Dynamo Man ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ As with Delta and Beta Control zones, the apparent amount of identifiable human soldiers in the Omega Control zone has decreased by about 65%, swiftly following Wily's order, and the same set of apparent falsification is performed. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$ Robot Master $$$$$$$$$$$$ Message: 12/37 Posted Author That was funny... Thu Jan 30 Gemini Man ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --Gemini Man appears on the screen, alone, reporting from medbay. He looks a bit worn out, and his headcrystal is cracked in a few places. However, he's energetic when he speaks.-- "Took care of the troop movements as requested, Doc. If anyone's wondering what's got Pharaoh Man so irritated, it's because, tonight, he said he was interested in causing trouble in Maverick Hunter territory, so, we headed out to Neo Tokyo. He told me to stage a 'fake terrorist attack' out there, which, I thought was silly enough, but," Gemini shrugs, "we didn't have any real demands. He basically thought that if we put some humans in danger, some Hunters would come out and fight. That chick Breeze was the one that took him on...and made pretty short work of him, too. Since his 'trap' didn't work as he planned, we bailed." Gemini grins. "It was fun, anyhow. And the good news is, since the owners of the Lotus Garden did cave to our demands at the time, that's one high-class Tokyo estabLIshment that will be selLIng WilyBeer." Gemini salutes the screen as if something wonderful was actually accompLIshed here. "Given that a few open attacks on Cairo have been made, we don't think that attacking it covertly is appropriate any longer. Gamma squadron is devising new plans and awaiting new orders." -- Gemini Man -- Gemini Man -- "Everyone should have a Gemini in their LIves...but it might be exhausting to have two!" $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$ Robot Master $$$$$$$$$$$$ Message: 12/38 Posted Author Epsilon Territory Thu Jan 30 Star Man ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Hey dudes and dudettes! Well, LIke Doc Dude ordered, I cut down troop movements by LIke three-fourths or so, and I got my Wily Youth herded up in the area for the time being. They're still out and SO TOTALLY about in Cairo, but here in the Savanah things are looking most judiciously quieter than yesterday!" "Anywho, on the other fronts things are keeping on the D-L on Epsilon turf. Nothin' out of the ordinary.

Thu Jan 30 Quick Man ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This message can not be ready by anyone who is rank 3 or below. Quick Man appears on screen, looking rather content. Behind him are a number of Joes, Mets, plus Magnet Man and Flash Man, all of which are fussing over The Quick Reaper. The cannon looks LIke a normal cannon, only with a view screen, controls, and seat behind it, and a weird magnet-LIke thing with 5 human-sized metalLIc blades hanging at the middle of the magnetic-thingy device. "Good news father, I have ran 100 theoretic runs on the Quick Reaper, using a special computer program that scans the machine and then lets you see if you built it right. The results have a 92% certainty to them. We'll make a few more tests on another program to make sure the results are correct, but unless something happened with the original program we should be able to move over to LIve tests by tomorrow." He finishes, grinning evilly, "I see great things in the future of this machine. Quick Man out." The screen fades. Anyone who cares (not including those who couldn't see this post) can download the results of the theoretical tests. -The Speedster was here- $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ IC News $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Message: 14/12 Posted Author Back in Business Fri Jan 31 News Report ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ In these dangerous times, self-defense is of prime importance.

They form into four rows of five each, hands on their hips. And then, unexpectedly, they start singing. The voices are a bit off, fortunately. "We're men, we're men in tights!" They turn and walk back and forth, swinging their arms over-dramatically. "We roam around the forest looking for fights." They halt, placing their hands on their hips again. "We're men, we're men in tights." "We rob from the rich and give to the poor, that's right!" A over-acted nod. "We may look LIke sissies, but watch what you say or else we'll put out your LIghts!" All the Robot Masters suddenly punch the air in front of them. Elec Man's swing goes wide, whacking Bass right in the face and tipping the Black Knight of Wily backwards. The song continues regardless. "We're men, we're men in tights," "Always on guard defending the people's rights." They all raise their right arm upwards, hand open. Then, suddenly, the Masters form into two LInes of ten robots each, arms locked over each other's shoulders. In unison, they sing the tune to the Can-Can, while performing the dance. Midway through, the front LIne ducks, and the rear row fLIps over them, performing the Can-Can for all to see. Afterwards, the twenty RMs re-arrange into neat rows of four again, hands on their hips. "We're men, MANLY men, we're men in tights." "Yeah!" "We roam around the forest looking for fights." To that, they strike various fist-fight poses, then resume their Akimbo stances. "We're men, we're men in tights." "We rob from the rich and give to the poor, that's right!" "We may look LIke pansies-" All the RM's flail their hands near their waist, as if flapping a LIttle dress, "-But don't get us wrong or else we'll put out your LIghts!" Another pose and punch at midair, but this time, Elec Man's stray fist knocks Ballade off his feet. Once again, the song continues as if nothing happened. "We're men, we're men in tights!" Very suddenly, all of them grab their waistbands, pulLIng upwards quickly "TIGHT tights!" They resume their pose with their hands on their hips. "Always on guard defending the people's rights." They all raise their right arm upwards, hand open. "When you're in a fix just call for the men in tights!" Afterwards, all the Masters strike various poses, cueing the end of the song with one last phrase.

"I hope for a large crowd of newcomers and old fans aLIke.", Daryn pulls his bathrobes closer, "Some people have been assured seats, should they decide to come, because they are cool people and they should get free seats.
