One of my oldest fanfics, but the first one on this site… Enjoy. As for people who had blood, gore, death, and all that is gothic, don't read.
I
was fighting, the base is under attack, and the soldiers are all
traped in the energy storage room. I could hear screams of pain and
agoney, from the soldiers that did not get in the storage room in
time. The enemies kept coming, and I had been wounded, I was
struggling to run, and I could just only charge my weapons. My vision
was getting blurry, and I was staggering as i ran, fighting my way to
the energy storage. When I reached the storage, I had been hit over
ten times. When I had managed to get every one to safety, my vision
became disorted, and I colapsed... what happend after, I do not know,
all I know is that I'm falling into a dark abyss, and I can tell,
death was drawing near. The darkness was endless, and I couldn't see
anything, let alone my own hand in front of my face. I noticed a
small cyber elf, coming closer to me, and it started to glow brighter
than it already was, as it healed me, and the dark abyss started to
fade. I whited out, and I woke up seconds later, being carried by a
soldier. "Mr. Zero! Are you alright?" the soldier said. "I
think so." I said. The soldier let me down, as we continued to
the back-up base. When we reached it, foe were pooring out of the
base, and started to attack. "Hide until I clear out all of
Weil's drones" I said as I ran into the Base, killing drone
after drone. I evaded all of the attacks, and killed off all of the
drones. I noticed a enemy with a gun around my size, as he charged it
up, and fired. it hit my chest moments later, as I was sent flying
backwards. "Who're you!" I barked at the figure, as I
pulled out my chain rod. "You have no need to know. You'll be
dead soon, anyway." The unknown attacker said. I latched my
chain rod in the attackers chest, and drew him in, sliceing up with
my Z Saber, leaving a gash in my enemy's chest. the unknown attacker
tried to shoot me in my head, but I ducked, as the beam of energy hit
the wall blowing a hole in the wall. Then, I took the optrotunity to
slice the figure's abdomen. My enemy jammed it's gun into my chest,
knocking the air out of me. when I bent forward in reaction, he shot
me in the back, but it was stronger than the last one. with the newly
formed hole it my abdomen, I was choughing up blood, but continued to
fight. My foe tried to shoot me again, but I was able to evade it. I
quickly stabbed my enemy in the chest. "I'll leave for now..."
My foe coughed. "My name's Kraft, and the next time we meet,
you'll have much more than a hole in your body." my foe, Kraft,
then trancefered out. I staggered out side, to tell the soldiers that
it was all clear. my vision started to distort, and the agony was
overwhelming. I collapsed on the ground, unable to speak, move. I
heard Ciel say that I was going into nurel shock. I know what is
going on around me. but it all seemed very distant, and cold. I was
put on a table, as Caruve rushed in, and started to repair me. I was
still in nurel shock, as Caruve quickly preformed scans on me. I
still couldn't speak, nor could I move, I can feel death approching,
every thing felt so cold, and empty. I've had this feeling before,
and I know it all to well... It was death, or shutting down in my
case. For the first time in my life, I felt fear, terror, and so many
other emotions I've never felt before. So many thoughts are rushing
through my mind. I knew all to well what was happening, and there was
nothing I could do, but struggle to stay alive. A program in me
kicked in, and these three words rushed into my mind: 'DANGER! VIRUS
ALERT!' I couldn't warn anyone, all I could do is hope that they find
it in time. My hearing mechanisem shut off, so I had to read there
lips in order to know what was happening. Caruve told Ciel that I had
been infected by a virus, called the 'Ontiten Virus' and that it
would kill me in a matter of minets unless they get it out... then,
everything when black... I woke up days later, and I was all clear of
the virus. I tried to sit up, but my body was still to weak to move.
I looked down, and noticed my body, my eyes were a solid gray, and
thats when it struck me; I was dead. the reason my systems said I was
all clear, was that I was dead. I noticed then that Caruve was still
trying to revive me. I looked over at the moniter, and it read that I
was dead. I knew all to well that this has happened before, but I
just couldn't remember... That's when Caruve had finished repairing
me, and started working on reviving me. I was luckly revived, and
woke up seconds later. After a few weeks, I had fully recovered, and
was helping the other soldiers repair the main base. There was an
explosion near my, and I realized, it was at the back up base! "Stay
here, hide, just incase thay attack here as well!" I barked, and
I made my way to the back up base.
When
I reached the back up base, I saw Kraft holding a soldier up by his
neck, pointing his gun in the chest, and before I could stop him, the
soldier was dicentigrated by a beam of energy. "So, you
survived, eh?" Kraft sneered at me. "you won't survive this
time!" After he said that, he ruched at me, charging his gun. I
had my hand behind my back, and when he fired, I pulled out my S.
Bommerang, and I then threw it into the energy I send back at him,
causing my S. Boomerang to spin faster, and the deflected energy spun
around it, making it much more powerful. Kraft was hit, and was sent
flying backwards, when I pulled out my Z Saber, and I jumped above
him, preforming my jumping rolling slash, hitting him over a dozen
times. He got up, and hit me in the back with his gun, but I used the
force of the blow, and got out of Krafts range, knowing that his gun
was a close fire gun. I then ricoshaded off of the wall, and stabbed
Kraft through the stomach, and he was forced to trancefer out. I
checked for survivors, and there were only seven out of fourty that
suvived. When the rimaining survivors and I reached the main base's
ruins, Weil's drones were swarming the place, killing soldier after
soldier.
I
instantly pulled out my saber, and started killing off drones, and
saveing who I could. A drone used a electric dagger to stab me in the
chest. I was struggling to breath, but continued to fight. I managed
to clear out al lof the drones, but very few survived. I was
struggling to stay awake. I Was putting all my wieght on my Z Saber,
my legs trembling from my low energy. One of the suriveing soldiers
ran over, and helped me, luckily, the first thing they did was repair
the maintinance room, and I was put on on of the tables, and was
repaired by Caruve. Caruve had finished repairing me, and charged my
systems back up, in order to give me more energy. I was then able to
get up, and go to check on everyone. Ciel came over to me and asked
me to go on this mission, to stop Weil's attacks. "I agreed to
go on the mission, and I used my portable tranceserver to go to the
quordonats, and made my was to the core of the facilaty... I was
running my was through the facilty. It was over a thousand attacking
me. none of them were able to hit me. I charged up my gun, and
destroyed all of them. I rushed to the core of the facility, and
destroyed the power core, thus shutting down all of the drones. I
checked it's systems, and it was going to self distruct, and it would
be a big enough explosion to destroy the entier building. I was about
to trance out, when I was shot in the back. I looked behind me, And
Kraft was charging up his gun for another attack. "So, you
attack us for a change, hmm?" Kraft said, and he kept charging
his gun. "So, you're with Weil..." I said, glareing at
him. I charged up my Z Saber and got in his face, and let loose a
explosion of energy, and jumped back, befor he could hit me. I then
pulled out my shield bommerang as he fired his gun, and it delected
back at him, nearly killing him. before he tranced, and lunged at
him, and hit him in the head with my recoil rod, and he tranced out.
I know that he wouldn't die that easily, the energy core started to
glow red, when I realized that I've wasted to much time. I quickly
inserted quordonance into my portable tranceserver, and got out right
when it exploded. When I reached the set location, I noticed that I
had been a little to quick when I typed the info, and had been
tranced a few miles away. I then realized that I was in the twillight
desert. I noticed a few enemies, which someone had already killed. I
heard gun shots near by, and ran in that derection. When I arived, I
noticed that the risistance soldeirs had come out looking for me, and
they were being attacked by remaining drones, and cleared them off.
The soldiers and I returned to the base, and they had there injuries
treated. Ciel came over and asked if the mission was a sucsess, and I
nodded at her. I walked into the half-way finished base, and started
to help again with the repairs. We were three fourths of the way
finished, and all of the power systems were operating. a few days
later, we were completly finished. I went to the command room, and I
was ready to see if there was any other missions for me to do. There
was one, and it was to stop Kraft for good. We'd just found out where
he was hideing. I tranced down, and noticed Kraft un the upper levels
of the structure, and I used my wall kick to get up there. I used my
saber to break the window, and Kraft jumped back after stunning me by
hitting me in the chest. I quickly recovered, and sliced Kraft
repeatedly. Kraft was stuggleing to breath, and collapsed. I finished
him off, when I was attacked from behind by a drone, nearly killing
me. I used my Z Saber to kill off the drone, and I transefered out.
When I reached the base, I'd collapsed, and the soldier that had been
on watch duty ran over, and got me to the med lab as quick as he
could. I was bleeding constantly. by the time the soldier got me to
the med lab, I was half out of blood. I was fighting death, and
wouldn't give up any time soon. I passed out, only to awake in an
empty void of darkness, bodies all around me. I noticed that there
were some risistance soldeirs among them. some had been my close
friends, while others I didn't even know, or they were to damaged to
identify. and then, I noticed X's cyber elf body. I ran over to him
intantly, and noticed that his cyber-elf glow had diminished, and he
was just a reploid like me. I knew that it was hopless to save him,
and got up, half emotion less, half crying, knowing that any chance
of my closest friend and the only link to my past was gone forever. I
could care less about my past, though, I just wanted him to be alive.
I started to wake up, when I noticed that I was still bleeding, and I
was in extream pain. I felt my systems starting to over heat. It felt
like I was on fire, and my body started to go into shock. Caruve was
typing into the holo computer, trying to cool down my systems. I was
struggling to breath, and my systems were shutting down. that's when
my body stopped going through shock, and my systems cooled down, but
I was still bleeding, and only had one fourth of my blood left,
Caruve sealed up the wound, and started to pump more blood into me. I
felt sharp pain still, in the sealed wound. It was still bleeding
slightly, but not like it had been. when I was fully recovered, I
left, to check and see if Ciel knew if Kraft was gone for good. Whe
nI asked her, she told me that Kraft was gone, but Weil was still an
threat. she started to brief me on a mission to finish him once and
for all. I agreed to go on the mission, and tranced out to Weil's
base. when I got there, it was empty, no enemies in sight. I quickly
ran to the core of the base, and I found Weil de-briefing all the
drones, to send them to attack the risistance. I quickly destroyed
all of the drones, and I then attacked Weil, when he changed into his
mechanoliod form. Weil sent a beam of raw energy at me, I evaded it,
but it his my leg, causing the leg to short cirrcut. luckily, I had
used my recoil rod, to propel myself to where I could charge up my
gun, and shoot him down. When his first mech form was defeated, he
was able to morph again, and I was unable to move. I was putting my
body wieght on my Z saber, and was haveing difficulty standing erect.
Weil used that beam again, and I was sent flying backwards, all my
cirrcutry was fried. Sparks were coming from my body, and I struggled
to get up. when Weil was right over top of me, I used the last bit of
my energy to shoot him in the head. when the explosion acurred, I was
tranced out, but it was to little to late. I had malfuntioned, and
they had to work quickly if they wanted to save me. I could feel my
cirrcutry melting, and my energy core was emiting sparks. I felt my
body dying, and I was fully aware. I was fighting death, and I knew I
was loseing. this time, I knew, that if the damage was inrepairable,
I would die for good. I still fought it, and I struggled to stay
alert. I felt my body functions coming to a hault, when I stopped
breathing, and I knew, I had lost the fight against death. I was in
an empty void, every thing sorunding me was black, I looked around,
only able to move my eyes. I started trying to get up, but my body
felt like it was solid rock. I could only guess on what would happen
next. I noticed a dark figure, with syths atached to it's arms, it's
form mached Deathtanz Mantisk's, as it put it's syth at my chest.
"Ah, Zero! Chika chika! You're finally dead, a meer gost, such
as my slef! Chika chika! but, the bad part about this is, you can
still feel pain, but can never die. Time for your eternal suffering!
Chika!" Deathtanz said, as he sliced my chest. I screamed in
pain, as he continued to attack my unmoveable body. I sturggled to
move, to get away, but I couldnt even move my finger, let alone my
legs. Deathtanz impaled my chest, only for it to come back together,
in it's mist-like form. I screamed, and I kept trying to move, I felt
as if my body were on fire, like I was in the scrap heap while it was
being melted down. I hoped that Caruve would find a way to repair me,
and save me form this torture. I was still screaming in pain, when my
wisp like body started to fade, and I hoped it was Caruve reviving
me. I fell into a coma state, and woke up days later, in a white
void, unlike the one I had been in before... I started to get up, and
noticed that all my pain and wounds were gone. I wandered around the
empty void. I noticed a flame going strate for me, and I reached for
my weapons, but they weren't there. I started to run, and trying to
evade it, when I dashed to the right, it just followed me, clearly
there was a seeking device in the center. I looked back, and noticed
a gleam in the center, the fire causing causing the gleam on the
device. it started to speed up, and I was hit in the back, I looked
to my side, and noticed the control device, and I quickly grabbed it,
and crushed it. the Fire then went out, clearly the device was
generating it. I fell forward, gasping for air. I staggered to my
feet, and started to walk. I continued to wander, and I noticed a
animal of some sort, around fifty feet tall, and it was engulfed in
flames, with the same kind of devises that generated the fire
floating around it. I atomaticly reached for my weapon compartment on
my leg, but like before, it was empty. I started to run strate at the
creature, and I dashed underneath it, and it's own weapons hit it.
when I got away from it, i turned around, and it was still unharmed,
but it's weapons were gone. it suddenly jumped at me, and pinned me
to the ground, and I was engulfed in flames, screaming from the pain,
and struggling to get away. I kicked at it, the only thing I could
do. it's just ignored my struggles, and dug it's claws deeper into my
body. I've never felt thsi pain before, and I continued to scream and
stuggle. I couldn't struggle any more, and I was unable to scream any
longer... and I felt pain unlike anything before. and, I knew, I was
in the reploid's version of the netha world... The creature
continued to rip into my body, as it ingulfed me in flames. I
screamed, and I grabbed the beasts' sword like claws, trying to force
it out. I felt as if all heck had broken loose. the creature ripped
it's claws out of me, and left me to burn. The fire died out hours
later, and I was resting, regainign my energy, in order to get away
before it came back. Hours later, I was able to walk, but had to stop
every so often, and let the pain fade, becasue every time I took a
step, the pain was almost overwhelming. after a few hours, I was 900
metters or so away from where I was attacked. I noticed a red glow,
where I had been, during the attack, and I instantly got up, and ran
in a diffrent derection of the glow, knowing it was the creature
again. I kept running, even though I was in pain, it was no where
near the pain I had felt, when the beast attacked me. I stopped to
rest, my legs were like led, and wouldn't move at all. I looked
behind me, and the red glow was getting weaker. I looked back in
front of me only to get a painful blast of enegy in the face. I
looked at my attacker, and noticed it was a reploid, in a black
hooded cloak, it's eyes glowing, and it was wielding a enegy sythe. I
then vanished, and I herd him apper behind me, and it put it's
glowing sythe at my neck. The cloaked reploid had it's sythe at my
neck, getting ready to quickly bring it back, and then forcefully
bring it strate through my neck, but, I knew in my whisp like state,
I would only feel pain, and wouldn't die. I kept my eye's on his
blade, and when he brought it back, I ducked down, and then rolled
away. The sythe wielding reaper like figure charged at me, and I
ducked down again, only ofr it to bring it's sythe down, and stab me
in the stomach, and launching me into the air. It vanished, and
reappered, and stabbed me in the back. I could feel the plasma blade
entering my body, and ripping out of it. I fell to the ground,
gasping for air. I noticed it was comeing back, and I started to
breathe lightly, so it'd look like I wasn't alive. Instead of
leaveing me, it grabbed me by the head, and picked me up, and threw
me down onto the ground hard. I then left, leaveing me for dead, and
i was wishing I was dead, and not suffering. I regained my senses,
and staggered to my feet. I left the area as quickly as I could, and
there was nothing in sight. I heard something, and snapped my head
around facing the source of the sound. It was all of Weil's
underlings, including Deathtanz Mantisc. I instantly reached for my
weapon container, but it was empty. I looked back up, and they
charged at me. I was jumped from all sides. I kicked Deathtanz's
scythe into him, and then got behind Deathtanz and used him as a
shield against Tristiana's barrage of attacks. When Deathtanz
exploded, all that was left was his scythe's. I picked them up,
seeing as how they are the only weaponry I could use. Tristiana
lunged at me, and I jumped up, and stabbed down with both scythes. He
was still alive, and I did a spinning slash, and he exploded, and
Inribita jumped at me. I blocked with the scythes, and then sliced
him in half. I destroyed Kybit and her nine remote fire balls were
all that was left. I reached for them, and they activated, and
started to circle around me. Cactank tried to attack me, but I sent
the flames at him, and he exploded. Soon, they were all defeated, and
I was armed. I quickly left there, knowing that anything else that
was here may have heard me, and were heading to the scene. Just as I
thought, I was being hunted down by more foes. I noticed the creature
from before, only ten of them. I had two choises. I could run, or I
could fight. I chose to fight. One of the creatures jumped at me, but
I just did a jump, and stabbed down on the head, and kicked off, and
then jumped at another, killing it, and one that had tried to attack
from behind. More just kept coming, so I slid under one, while
slicing at it, and then made a break for it. They all chased after
me, but I used the remotes I hate taken from Foxtar's remains to lead
them astray. They soon stopped, and I called back the remotes. I was
exhausted, and had the remotes around my body, so I could repel any
assault, and rest. I continued to walk, only to come across the
reaper like figure, and it jumped at me. I pulled out the scythes,
and used the remotes to fight the Figure vanished, and was behind me,
and stabbed me...
