| Dr. Light: You have heard me tell this story | 
| Many times before you sleep | 
| This time listen carefully | 
| And I will tell you once again | 
| But this time understand that what I’m telling you, | 
| Every single word is true. | 
| You need to know. | 
| There was another who came before you | 
| He was a hero and your brother and my son. | 
| He fought the darkness, and the darkness won. | 
| And he fought bravely, and he died bravely | 
| But he was forsaken by the ones he wished to save. | 
| And when he died he died in vain. | 
| You need to know. | 
| You are not him. | 
| A time is coming, and I must warn you | 
| Though it’s something that you may not understand | 
| They can’t be saved by just one man. | 
| And I am sorry, because I was wrong | 
| And I’d take away the weight his shoulders had to bear. | 
| Because when he fell I was the only one that cared. | 
| You need to know. | 
| You are not him. | 
| His fight’s not yours. | 
| Megaman broke away from his father’s hold, ran to the window and looked out | 
| over the city. | 
| His eyes filled with tears. | 
| His heart hurt under the weight of | 
| what he’d just been told. | 
| How could his father do nothing? | 
| How could Dr. | 
| Light not avenge the death of Protoman? | 
| That story’s finished. | 
| That story’s ended. | 
| Understand there’s nothing more that we can do. | 
| And I will not risk losing you. | 
| For if you leave now, you will be fighting | 
| for a people that refuse to comprehend | 
| They have chosen their own end. | 
| So you will stay here. | 
| You will obey me. | 
| And I will keep grieving for the son I sent to death. | 
| You are all that I have left. | 
| You need to know. | 
| You are not him. | 
| This fight’s not yours. | 
| Megaman tore past Dr. Light. | 
| He threw the doors open at the end of the hallway | 
| and disappeared into the stairway. | 
| Light called after him: | 
| You cannot win! |
