A perfect man, an unbeatable machine, hell-bent on destroying every evil standing between man and freedom.
Built for one purpose, to destroy Wily's army of evil robots. Ready, willing, prepared to fight.

Stop while you're still alive.
But if your hands are willing,
THERE IS MORE TO THIS FIGHT.
YOU'VE BEEN FED WHAT THEY WANTED TO FEED YOU. YOU'VE BEEN BLED OF THE WILL TO SURVIVE.

Every single word of it is true.
BUT WHY SHOULD WE SAVE THEM,
WHEN THEY STAND FOR NOTHING?
WHEN EVERYTHING IS SAID AND DONE,
I SWEAR I'M GONNA MAKE IT RIGHT.
YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE WHO KEEPS YOU ALIVE.

The form of a son.)
TURN IT OFF.

YOU CAN SAVE US
YOU'RE OUR ONLY HOPE
KILL PROTOMAN
AND YOU WILL FIGHT.
BUT WHEN YOU FIGHT, YOU'LL FIGHT ALONE.
AND IN THE END, YOU'LL SEE THERE WAS NO OTHER WAY.
And I will tell you once again, but this time understand that what I'm telling you;
Every single word of it is true.
No one who would oppose the robots.
No one who would challenge their power.
Or so Dr. Wily believed...
(What is this? Frustration? Humiliation? Hatred? Certainly, these are there too. But no, this is more than that. These emotions are his life. He has lived with them for so long that they no longer affect him.)

Yet, here he stands in the very shadow of the man you came here to destroy.
You came here to avenge his death. You came here to save mankind. You see now, you cannot do both
I CAN ALMOST HEAR THE HOUNDS...

If you can hear me sending out this message tonight,
Then break the silence, send a signal back.
I MADE A PROMISE TO YOU,
THERE'S JUST ONE MORE THING I HAVE TO DO.
I've made my choice.
And I'll make my stand.
I MAY NOT BE THE HERO THEY NEED, BUT GOD I CAN STILL BE A MAN.
Come, (Okay...)
You linger too long. (I'll wake.)
A HELL THAT'S ALL MY FAULT,
AND A BEAUTIFUL GIRL,
AND A DREAM, A DREAM THAT I LOST WHEN I WOULDN'T LET GO OF THIS WORLD.
We will build towers to the heavens,
(MAN WAS NOT BUILT FOR SUCH A HEIGHT.)
(Weighing the consequences of his actions. A familiar automobile passed him in the darkness.
He was too lost in thought to take notice.)
And there's one way out,
But I can see,
They're betting it all on one machine.
I CAN ALMOST HEAR THE HOUNDS.
