Well then, I have a suggestion that may interest you, regarding that particular element of the plot.
How about having a dimensional portal placed near the dark side of the moon, which the Constellation Stardroids use to travel through for their possible invasion, like the one seen in Interstella 5555 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjli3hj0ZkM&ob=av2e)? It could work as a homage to that, too.
I was contemplating some sort of portal. But perhaps this is how the goodguys call for help from Mega Man. Perhaps the moon changing colours is the way their technology can create portals and give out distress calls or something.
This time the Stardroids aren't after just Earth, but they have been reawakened to finish their true purpose, to destroy the entire universe, and perhaps the people that Mega Man befriends are the ones who beckon him through the portal to their side of the universe. They would have heard of his previous victory over the Stardroids and wish for his assistance in defeating this new invasion in their sector of the universe.
There are no characters yet, I haven't thought that far ahead, but I'm thinking of making some new alien races, perhaps a kind of united planetary organisation, whoever Duo works for, as an intergalactic police officer.

Funny enough, there is one character that has potential in this story. I invented her quite a long time ago for another project. Her name was Duet, and quite simply she was going to be a love interest for Mega Man. I kind of lost interest in that fangame idea after Rokko Chan came out (as she turned out to be an exact clone of how I imagined Duet). But now that I put two and two together, Duo and Duet...
Perhaps there could be a connection. I could totally redesign the character of Duet to fit this story and still make use of the name. Always fun to have musical puns for characters in the Mega Man Universe.
I was thinking about a leader: an empress or princess. Duet could be that character.
