I'm baaack. First off I'd like to say I'm very very very very very very very very very very very very very sorry for the loooong wait on this. My old computer got a very bad virus (the fake security program one) and after several months I finally gave up and (after several more months) I finally got enough money to buy a new computer. However, all my stories that were on my old computer (that I was planning to post all at once) are gone. So since I feel you've been waiting long enough I'm going to post this now and then post the next chapters whenever I can. So without further ado I give you chapter 1 of MMZ6: The Return of Dark Memories. Takes place after MMZ5: The Rebirth of Destruction.
DISCLAIMER: I do not own any of the megaman characters. All characters belong to Capcom.
Ciel stood in the middle of an endless black void. As she looked around in confusion, she was suddenly surrounded by an endless sea of dead and dying children, both human and reploid. She gasped in shock at the sight before approaching one of the dying children.
"Who did this to you?" she asked holding the child up.
The child coughed a little before turning to Ciel.
"Y-You d-did," he muttered.
"What?" Ciel yelled in shock, "No, I would never…"
Suddenly, Ciel found herself holding a bloody, light-blue saber in her hand.
"N-No…" She stuttered, staring at the saber, "I-I didn't…"
"You did," said a voice behind her.
Ciel turned to see Neige standing there.
"You killed them all," she continued in a hateful voice.
"Th-That's not true," Ciel continued to stutter, "I-It can't be true."
"It is," said another voice.
As Ciel turned to see Cerveau, she suddenly found herself wearing the armor she fought Omega in.
"You're a monster," Cerveau continued, "Just like Omega."
"No," Ciel replied in fear, "I'm not."
"Your hair is dyed in their blood," said another voice.
Ciel's hair suddenly became soaked blood red. She turned to see Zero standing there now.
"I can't believe I loved you," he said before starting to walk away, "You maverick."
"No, Zero, wait!" Ciel cried as Zero faded away, "I didn't do this!"
"Ciel," said a little voice behind Ciel again.
Ciel turned to see Alouette standing there cowering in fear.
"Please don't kill me," she said in fear.
Ciel tried to respond but couldn't make a sound for some reason. Instead, she suddenly found herself raising the saber she was holding.
"Please Ciel," Alouette cried in fear, "Don't. I'm your sister."
Ciel brought the saber above her head.
"I don't care," she said giving a large, crooked smile.
Then, Ciel brought the saber down.
"NOOO!" Ciel screamed shooting up from up from her bed.
Ciel panted heavily as she felt her heart race. It was just a dream.
"Ciel?" said a voice from the bed next to hers.
Ciel turned to see Zero looking at her worriedly.
"Are you alright?" he asked.
Ciel sighed. Ever since Zero and Ciel had become a couple, they had been staying in the same room together. Ciel had been the one to decide it and, surprisingly, no one teased them about it.
"I'm fine," Ciel replied once she had calmed down, "It was just a bad dream."
"Are you sure?" Zero asked.
"Yes Zero," Ciel replied, "don't worry, I'm fine. Let's just go back to sleep."
Ciel had been having several nightmares lately. She had woken up screaming almost every night. Everyone at the resistance base was starting to become worried about her. As Ciel started to lie back down, she tried to calm herself.
"It was just a dream," she whispered quietly to herself, "You're probably just stressed lately from working so hard and it's resulting in nightmares. Just relax and get some sleep."
"Are you sure they're just dreams?"
Ciel shot up again and looked around.
"Hello?" she whispered.
No response. After a while, Ciel laid back down again. What was that strange voice and why did it sound… familiar?
Well there you guys go. Again I'm really sorry for taking so long to post this. Because I lost the files on this and I'm going to have to rewrite it, I'd be very grateful for any suggestions on what you think should happen next. Well, until next time.
