Me: Hey, what is up everyone? Prowl back again with the newest installment in the CN:TNG series, this time it's the movie that's been long awaited, I've finished the first two chapters, and I'm gonna post'em up here before I take the time off, but don't worry, hopefully I'll get back into updating the rest of my stories because of getting new ideas for stories, but enough about that, not only are Alpha and Fairy joining, but for the first time in a while after the first season, we have Molly with us for the first time!
Alpha: Alright! I've been waiting for this moment! Thank you Prowl!
Me: My pleasure.
Molly: Hey everyone! Sorry it took me so long to get here.
Me No problem, besides it's good to have you outside with us.
Fairy: Agreed.
Alpha: Yeah, I assume it's gonna be M-Rated?
Me: Well I did some thinking as I was writing the chapters, and I thought: 'Nah better make it a T-Rating.' Rethinking on the rating, I would still have to give a warning to the readers that there will be scenes that scar them to the point of making them want to skip certain parts because there are various scenes that might make them rethink reading this, I don't want them to think bad of me, I just want them to enjoy the movie.
Molly: well, can see why, and I don't you.
Me: thanks Molly. *Looks to you guys* Now, as of the standard Disclaimer, I only own the movie, my characters, and my series, the rest, however, belong to their respective owners. So enjoy.
"So, that's what happened?" Fairy asked after hearing Alpha's story, the green Maverick Hunter nodded to confirm his story. "Yeah, but from the sound of your story, things went on even when I was in a coma. I still can't figure out why you went through all that, that would be impossible to pull off." He said, Fairy shrugged, she didn't know if she could do it again. "Well that was only a one time thing, I'm not sure if I could do that again, much less risk my life for doing it again." She explained, Alpha had no time to worry, he was just glad to be around Fairy again, he'd have to pay Molly a visit soon.
And from Omega's room, he could hear sounds of the two making out, He wasn't sure if two girls were for his brother, but he was happy for Alpha, Linda came in, looking worn out, and from what she had gained was a new body, it looked like a cross between Windblade from the Transformers series and Alia, but her hair was still brown, and gained a mix of Windblade's and Alia's facial features, Omega seemed to be flustered by Linda's new body. "Wow...you...you look..." He stuttered, but couldn't find a word to say. "Sexy? Maybe. But right now, I'm worn out, and I need a rest, getting that new body was actually very painful because of Perceptor, the guy may be scary as heck, but he does a good job of making new bodies out of existing molds or merging them together, I really don't know why he did this, but he said that the idea to mix Cybertronian and Reploid technology is something that was unheard of, but now I'm living proof that it can be done, I bet Wheeljack could do better, seeing that he'd build a body from scratch and not have the hassle of making the the volunteer go through it painfully, he recommended that it was safer, but Perceptor dragged me out of the lab before I could agree to Wheeljack's recommendation." She explained, Omega had one thought, and it was to partly kill Perceptor if he did it to him, the other half of him wondered what it was like to be a mix of a Cybertronian and a Reploid, but but both sides agreed to worry about it later as Omega lay beside his girlfriend, looking at her tired face. "Don't worry, I'll talk to X about it in the morning." He said as he turned off the light in their bedroom.
X was walking down the hall as he went into the command center, he found Zero at the command console, he was searching for his daughter, X felt that he had seen this before. "Zero, Might I ask what's going on?" He asked, Zero turned to see his best friend. "Well since everybody's gonna take a long time to find my daughter, I figured that I'd do it myself, I'm using Sentinel to find her. You found Alpha when Wily was using Ragnarok to destroy us." He explained.
X couldn't argue with Zero, he knew his best friend was right. "Alright, but why now rather than later? Don't you think it's overkill?" He asked, Zero raised an eyebrow, but he didn't say anything, X hated seeing his best friend like this, He left after Zero had found her, but at that moment, sirens went off, Alpha and the rest of the team rushed over, trying to figure out what the situation was. "What's going on?" He asked, everyone except X and Zero seemed to think that question as well, Alpha couldn't help but remember what happened next, he saw a girl he recognized as a YouTuber. "That's Zeroreploidfangirl1999, she's also my cousin! Don't tell me she's..." He never got to finish his question as Zero answered for him. "Yeah, her human name is Gina Jones, ironic, her family is related to your adopted parents, so that means if she's related to you, you're related to me as well." He said, everybody minus X was shocked by this news, Alpha turned to face him. "Is this true?" He asked, X waste no time in answering. "Yes, Zero and I considered each other brothers when we created you and sent you off to the other side, you know the rest from there, but from her side, you know more about her at this point than we did, so you'll have to tell us what she's seen and done." He explained, Alpha knew that X was right, he knew that Gina was pretty much a gamer like he was, but she didn't visit much because she wasn't from California, she was from Oklahoma, she did visit when she was with the family on Christmas, she had been a daredevil pretty much when she was on a visit last Summer, and almost ended up in the Hospital because he convinced her not to do something so dangerous, she listened because she knew that he was looking out for her, and he told her the reason why she tried to do it was because her friends dared her to do it because they'd see her scared and act like a coward, he told her that it didn't matter what they thought of her and she couldn't change who she was, and about a week later, when she told her friends, they blew her off, and from that moment on, she got new friends that would accept her, and from the last time he heard from her, she said that she was going to play the Transformers Devastation game, and she released a gameplay video on her channel, she was pretty much popular after that.
Alpha told them from what he remembered, Zero especially, since he heard of what his daughter thought of him, he was impressed to find that she admired him, but he wanted to know more. "Well, beside the more popular things she did, is there a downside to her?" He asked, Alpha thought for a moment, he did remember one or two things about his cousin. "Well, she can be boastful and she's competitive, and her competitiveness has often been her downfall, mainly because that was her main weakness and I've exploited that many times when we played a game online from our respective homes, thankfully she wasn't recording that day, my human friends and I were on a team as Gina and her new friends were on their respective team, we were tied until my team won, she broke down that day, crying after we won, I can tell she hated losing, and well...she took it harder than her friends did, we didn't mean to make her feel worse, we agreed to let her friends handle the situation since they were her team." He explained, Zero felt sorry for her daughter. "Did they help her?" He asked, Alpha nodded. "Yeah, it took an hour to do so, even I felt bad for her." He explained, feeling bad, but he knew it was all in the past, Zero knew where Alpha was going with his past memories. "And from there she forgave you and you forgave her?" He asked, Alpha nodded again. "Right on both accounts, we forgave each other, and after that, well, she wasn't like that when we played other online games after that, and she learned her lesson." He finished, Zero nodded, knowing his nephew was right.
Then X wanted to know what Gina's personality was. "Do you know what her personality is like?" He asked, Molly answered quicker than Alpha did. "I think I know her personality more than you guys do, her personality is very much the character Rainbow Dash from the My Little Pony cartoon that's still going, and I know what you're thinking, she's not a clone of Rainbow Dash, she may act like her, but their past differ in some parts on their lives, but she does have something in common with Rainbow, they're both loyal to their friends, and one thing I don't understand is why she has rainbow colored hair." She said, all eyes turned to Zero, who looked nervous. "I...uh...was not in my right mind when she had been given that." He replied, X suddenly remembered why. "So that's why you wouldn't let me see her, is there anything else?" He asked, Zero was extremely nervous when X asked him that.
"I...uh...kinda gave her Iris's face, it's the only thing that I still keep dear to me, you guys know I loved both Gina and Iris so much, it just tore me apart to let go of them." Zero almost broke into tears, Alpha knew that Zero needed some comfort as he hugged his uncle. "At least one of them still lives, you're lucky to see Gina alive, she doesn't know she's a Reploid, that's why I'll help her out." He said, Zero stopped sobbing as he smiled. "Thank you." he said, feeling better, Alpha went over to the console and transferred the coordinates for Gina's location into his watch. "I'll be alright, if I'm not back in five minutes, come get me if trouble starts in the real world." He instructed, he activated the portal function on his watch was a portal appeared, Molly, Fairy, Linda, and Omega followed him since he was unaware of them following him.
Outside Gina's home, a portal opened as Marcus was back in his human form, the other three rammed into him as they fell into a pile. When they got untangled, Marcus was upset that they followed him. "I wanted to do this alone, but since you're here, it's gotta be me and Molly she's gotta see, she might see double if she sees you and Omega...she'll freak out if we don't explain things to her." He said, he knew everyone else was watching from Videoland, so he got up and used his watch to call Gina, it was a few minutes before she answered. "Hello?" She asked through the call, Marcus took a deep breath before he spoke. "Hey G. How are you?" He asked back, Gina gasped, the she squealed in delight. "OHMYGOSHOHMYGOSHOHMYGOSH! Marcus, dude! It's been months! How are you?" She asked, Marcus chuckled. "I'm fine, and it's been longer than that. Anyway, look out your window." He said, and she did, she saw Marcus and Molly, her mouth dropped for a second before she could process what she was seeing. "I'll be down in a moment." She said as she ended the call, Marcus knew that Gina would be in for a shock, she came out the front door and walked down to see the two. "What are you doing here? Are uncle Scott and aunt Amy with you?" She asked, Marcus shook his head at that. "No, we...ah...came to pick you up ourselves, don't ask how, it's a rather long and complicated story, one we won't have time for, but I'm going to try and shorten it as best I can. There's trouble going on, and we need your help." He explained, it was clear that he wasn't trying to waste time.
Gina seemed to believe her cousin, but she had a feeling something was off. "Alright, I'll help, but I'll need to be filled in on the details when we get there." She said, Marcus nodded. "Alright, but first, there's someone we want you to see." Marcus replied, Omega, Linda and Fairy all came out, Gina saw them, she was about to scream, but Marcus put his hand on her shoulder. "Don't be afraid, we know them." He said in a reassuring tone, Gina seemed to calm down.
"Alright, but why didn't you tell me?" Gina asked, Marcus went silent for a moment, and Omega answered for him. "He...uh...went missing for three weeks, and no, aliens didn't abduct him, it was more like abducted by Megaman X, as crazy as it sounds, it's true to a certain degree." He said, Marcus nodded. "Yeah, I found out that I was missing for three weeks, in case you didn't know." He replied, Gina nodded. "Oh, I guess I didn't know that. Anything else while I was away?" She asked, Marcus nodded. "A lot of things really, I found out that X is my real father, and I get two girlfriends, Omega's my clone and my brother, and one thing you should know is that you're zero's daughter." He explained, Gina was silent for a moment, but she eventually took it better than Marcus did, in fact, she was jumping up and down in joy.
"I KNEW IT! I knew there was something off about me! That's way past cool!" She said, the group looked at each other in one thought they shared, and not by mental link, they all had the same thought, Gina asked a question they were ready to answer. "How'd you get here?" She asked, Marcus answered for her. "A watch that can act as a phone, tablet, and a portal device, but since my watch is recharging on the portal function, Fairy's will have to do." He said, and as he said, Fairy activated the portal function on her watch.
"Come with us, you wanna see what you look like as a Reploid?" Fairy offered, Gina thought for a moment before she went In, the others followed. The others were waiting other side as Gina appeared from the portal first, her armor resembled X with Iris's face, her helmet was Copy X's helmet and her entire armor was gold in color, her hair remained the same. Alpha, Fairy, Linda, Omega and Molly came back and saw Gina looked great, Fairy let go of the fact Gina wore Copy X's helmet, and now that she though about it, it was a vague similarity to the MK II helmet, much reminiscent of the old generation Reploids in X and Zero's time, she knew the fact that Gina and Copy X weren't related was true to a point.
Gina looked at her father, she looked like she was about to cry, Zero looked at her as he hugged her. "It's great to see you at last, Gina. You don't know how long I've missed you." He said, tears ran down his face, Gina let out a few of her own tears, it was a touching moment, it was hard not to interrupt them, but Nicole interrupted the moment. "I hate to interrupt, but shouldn't we figure out what the threat is?" She asked, Alpha was the first to reach the console as he brought up the image, he was very shocked to see what would burned into his brain forever. "What the..." He trailed of,on the screen, was a reconstructed Meteor G, but in the shape of the Chaos Bringer, Unicron in planet mode.
"Is that...what I think it is?" Tony asked, Alpha shook his head. "I'm not certain that it's either, but it's certainly a mix of both, something's in there, I just don't know what." He said, He turned to X. "I have a feeling we're gonna see some old enemies as well as friends. I don't know who though, but I have a feeling Quint is in there, maybe even Gate, that's just my hunch though." He explained, X thought otherwise. "You're not the only one who has that feeling, and it isn't a hunch." He replied, he looked to the screen, it almost looked like the first Death Star on the inside of Meteor G, X turned to face the Maverick hunters. "We've got old friends and enemies in there, and it's our job rescue them, no matter what they say or think, we're rescuing them no matter what." He ordered, Zero smiled. "That's a pretty tall order, you think we can handle this?" He asked, X smiled back. "I don't think, I KNOW we can." He replied, he turned to the others. "Since we're going, we're going in two groups, I'd like to know who's wanting to be in the first group, and who's wanting to be in the second group. Any volunteers?" He asked, Alpha raised his hand. "I'll go, but I don't need to be alone, I need the Robot Masters that went with me and Fairy on our vacation, plus Fairy, Gina and Shard. The second team will be you, Zero, and the rest of the Robot masters. Nicole and Sentinel will guide both teams, we both have six hours to rescue those who want our help, those who want us dead, we can't save them, they'll be far beyond redemption." He said, knowing both X and Zero would agree.
An hour later, both teams were inside a dropship as they flew close to the amalgamation. "Alright everyone, stay true to the objective, We've got four hours as a reminder that we're on a time limit." Alpha reminded, Everyone nodded, they reached the landing zone, so far, no resistance had shown up, everyone thought that something was off.
The two teams split as they headed in two directions, both groups went off to rescue the prisoners as Alpha's group encountered, what they saw were the rest of Wily's Robot Masters as they got to blast the locks open, the freed Robot Masters cheered as they thank Alpha and his group, Turboman shook hands with Alpha as they began to talk. "I assume you're gonna blow this abomination apart after we escape?" He asked, Alpha nodded. "We plan to do that in under six hours. By the way, how did you end up here?" He asked, Turboman had an answer to that question. "After our defeat at the hands of Megaman we woke up with no memory of how we got here, by the way, where is he?" He asked, Alpha knew that none of the Robot Masters that Wily made didn't know what became of Megaman after Megaman 10, so he decided to be truthful. "Well, as much as I hate to say it, Wily went to the future and kidnapped him, and was both reprogrammed and rebuilt as Quint to destroy the present Megaman, the cycle repeats itself, and because of Wily, there was no Megaman to save the future, the biggest mistake your creator ever made." He said, Nitroman raised his hand, Alpha took notice of this. "Yes?" He asked, Nitroman knew that he had to say something, and he had to be quick. "I saw a green Robot Master as I was placed in the cell, but from where I saw him, he was seventeen rooms down from where we are, and I'm willing to bet he's gonna be heavily guarded." He explained, Alpha nodded, Solarman looked down the long corridor, he knew that someone else was here, he felt it as well, he didn't know who else, but he made sure to tell Alpha as well. "Not only is Quint here, but someone else is here as well." He explained, Alpha nodded. "Well, we'll make sure to rescue him after we rescue Quint." He declared as the group raced to rescue Quint and the Mysterious Robot Master.
Over with X's group, they found Mavericks they were familiar with, the first Mavericks that Sigma had corrupted to start the first Maverick war, and and from the rest of the mavericks, most of the Mavericks were happy to see X and Zero, while others shouted, hollered, yelled, and screamed death threats at them, the two Maverick hunters weren't fazed, they saw Gate among them. "Gate!" X shouted as he ran to the Reploid scientist cell and lasted the lock off, freeing him. "Thanks, X. I've just about had enough of being a prisoner. "He said, X nodded, but he was confused by how he got in a prison cell with the Mavericks. "How'd you end up here?" He asked, Gate had a look that could be described as wanting to tell X, and he was going to tell the Maverick Hunter. "After my death, I was brought back to life and placed in this cell with the other Mavericks you and Zero defeated, I don't blame you, I've had a long time to think, and this time, I'll help end the Maverick Wars." He explained, X nodded, Gate then pointed to a cell that held a certain Bounty hunter Reploid, X snarled as he looked at the bounty hunter. "Dynamo." He growled, Dynamo looked up to see X, he smirked. "Well, if it isn't Mr. Personality, Megaman X. What brings you here? Come to free me? I'm flattered, X. If Zero's here then tell him that sexy chick Iris is in a separate cell seventeen rooms down from here. By the way, I also noticed another sexy chick right across from me, I think her name was Ferham." He explained, X seemed to calm down, he blasted the lock open, Dynamo walk out, and for a first, he didn't attack X, the blue Maverick Hunter was still cautious. "Who's in the cell next to you?" He asked, Dynamo chuckled. "See for yourself. You'll be surprised to see who's in the cell." He said, X looked over to see who was in the cell, and like Dynamo said, he was surprised, it was Vile, the blue Maverick hunter snickered at the site of Vile being back in a cell, and you could tell Vile didn't like the reaction X had. "Yeah, Yeah, laugh at me while you can, because I'm not leaving my cell." He grouched, X stopped snickering as he became concerned. "I know you hate me, Vile, but how did you end up here?" He asked, Vile got up, and walked closer to the cell bars, looking X straight in the eyes. "After I fled, I got caught, but not by Maverick Hunters, they threw me in here, and I've been in here before the other Mavericks were revived and put in their cells, and to my surprise, Repliforce was here as well, they wanted to tear me apart, but the general told them that I wasn't worth killing. He was right, I wasn't. He asked why was alive, and I told him about Lumine and Sigma, he didn't seem fazed by sigma, he told me that Sigma tricked him into going against humanity, can't say I blame him, he lost everything, he asked me why I became a Maverick, I told him that I had done it because I joined willingly and that I had free will, then I began to think, all the innocent lives, they suffered because I became a Maverick, I started having regrets, I tried suicide many times, but they all ended in failure, I almost lost my sanity, and to think I was invincible, you and Zero beat me four times, and two of those times you teamed up with those guys, the Project X Zone incidents, man, I wished I could live up to the legend of Megaman, but you know what happened after that." He explained X felt even more guilty, had he even known, Vile wouldn't be where he was today. Despite how Vile felt, X blasted the lock, Vile looked annoyed. "I told you I don't want to leave this cell! Leave me alone X!" He shouted, X walked in, he knew just the right words would set Vile straight. "Listen Vile, Megaman is here as well." That sprung something in Vile's mind, the mention of Megaman being here set something off inside him. "He's here? Then why did nobody tell me before?!" He asked, X knew that would get Vile set straight. Crashman came up, he had something important to tell X. "Sorry to interrupt, X, but Alpha said that he's off to rescue Quint and a mysterious Robot Master." He announced X looked somewhat satisfied with the news, but Vile didn't know that Quint was once Megaman. "Who's Quint? I thought you said Megaman was here." He said, X nodded, he hadn't told Vile the whole truth, so he decided to tell Vile what Alpha told him, and when he was finished, Vile was angry with Wily. "Well, Wily's an asshole for ruining our future." he said, X nodded in agreement, but he didn't agree with Vile's choice of words, but he knew Wily was responsible for leading to the creation of both Zero and himself, and if that didn't happen, he wouldn't have been built, and Zero would have been sealed away longer than he originally would have been if Sigma hadn't been there.
Over with Zero, he ran all the way to Iris's cell, but he hid on the wall once he saw that it was heavily guarded, he knew that he'd be outnumbered if he took on the guards alone. He looked at the guards, they looked like the sentry robots from The Black Hole, he radioed X. "X, I'm near where Iris is being held, but it's heavily guarded by sentry robots from The Black Hole, Requesting backup immediately." he said over the radio frequency.
At the same time, Alpha's group had heard the radio frequency, Alpha hoped he wouldn't run into any of the sentry robots, but his hopes were crushed, Zero was right. sentry robots stood tall as they were in front of the cell. "Damn, I was hoping not to go up against these things, but...wait...is that...? Shit, that's Captain S.T.A.R!" He said as he, Quickman, Magnetman, and Metalman all stood by, and saw Captain S.T.A.R among the sentry robots, then they saw another Captain S.T.A.R walk up to the first Captain S.T.A.R. "Did you hear about the recent news that the Maverick Hunters were traveling back and forth between dimensions?" the second Captain S.T.A.R asked, the first one answered back. "Yeah, a bunch of scrap metal if you ask me." The first Captain S.T.A.R replied, not believing anything he was told, Alpha and the others were shocked, the real Captain S.T.A.R never spoke, and neither did the sentry robots, they figured that the two Captain S.T. were mass produced models of the original.
Alpha radioed Zero to update the red Maverick Hunter on what he witnessed. "Zero, This is Alpha, we've spotted what appears to be mass production models of the original Captain S.T.A.R, and it appears that they can talk." He said into his watch, Zero's voice sounded surprised on his end. "Really? 'Cuz I'm seeing three of him. what ever you do, do not engage until help has arrived, that's what I'm waiting for, Iris's cell seems less heavily guarded, I guessing that Quint's cell seems more heavily guarded since he's a bigger threat than Iris." He replied, Alpha nodded in agreement. "Yeah, we're seeing forty guards, how many are you seeing?" He asked, Zero replied over the radio. About twenty, that's still enough to give me hell from where I am. And are you cursing? I feel as if this place is making us unconsciously curse every second we say something." He explained, Alpha agreed mentally before speaking again. "Seems like it, and it makes sense, Quint seems to be the main threat if someone's really wanting to keep him in that cell." Alpha replied again, the four Robot Masters seemed to be in agreement.
Over where Zero was, X had come with Shadowman, Vile, Crashman, Flashman, Gate, Dynamo. The Repliforce general, and the rest of group, Zero looked relieved to see X and the gang, but he wondered why Vile was among the group, but he let it go for now, X walked up next him. "What's the situation, Zero?" He asked, and Zero told him what he and Alpha saw, X seemed to think like they did. "Makes sense."He said, prepping his Buster weapon, everyone followed suit, Storm Owl and Storm Eagle made sure to fly out of the sentry robot's sight as they flew into the air, the battle was short, there were more numbers in X's group than there were of the sentry robots.
Zero sliced the locks open as he ran into the cell, finding Iris, chained up to the wall, no damage to her body was visible, and she looked fine, other than the fact that she looked weary. "Iris...hang on, we'll get you home!" Zero said he got his Z Saber out, and slashed the chains off, Iris fell to the floor, her vision was blurry, she couldn't make out the shape of Zero, but she saw a bright light as he picked her up bridal style as he walked out the cell, Zero felt that this was too easy, felt as if this were a trap but he couldn't be sure.
The rest of Alpha's group got to the five as they were preparing for an attack and were ready, Gina looked at the sentry robots not having a clue as to who they were, Alpha explained that they were the sentry robots from The Black Hole, Gina understood now, the group began attacking their group of sentry robots, with forty sentry robots and two Captain S.T. , they weren't going to have an easy time. Needless to say, the battle was over before the sentry robots got the chance to alert the rest of what was an army, one of the Captain S.T. survived the onslaught, but had a missing forearm and a missing foreleg due to losing them in the fight, Alpha had Metalman pin down the black robot's remaining good arm, he looked ready to rip it off, but alpha gave him a look that meant to hold back his strength, Alpha looked at the robot. "Alright tell us who built you, or Metalman will rip off your good arm and then proceed to behead you and mount your head as a trophy on his wall." He threatened, the black robot gave in. "I don't know who built me but I heard the name of the robot who serves him." He said, Alpha kept his anger in check, he wanted to know. "Tell me." He demanded, the black robot gulped. "Maximilian." He answered, Alpha's eyes widened in horror, he then proceeded to blast open the lock to Quint's cell, and found him in the same position Zero had found Iris in, and proceeded to free quint, luckily, Quint's vision wasn't blurry, he saw Alpha take off the cuffs, he was let down. "Thanks. I don't suppose you have an E Tank with you, right?" He asked, Alpha shook his head, but held out a container of E-Capsules. "Here, these E-Capsules are better than E-Tanks, try them out." He offered Quint took one and drank from it, he felt his power returning. "Wow, you're right, they're better than E-Tanks. I've been running on reserve power ever since I was put in this cell." He said, Alpha nodded. "Well I think we've run into a trap and I think I know who's behind this." He explained, Quint nodded, he did something that he hadn't done in a while when he was still Megaman, he called for Rush, but Rush seemed to be deactivated as he was teleported to the cell, probably in low power mode, Alpha turned him back on, Rush seemed to see Quint, he didn't know that Quint was Megaman as he attacked his former owner. "Rush! Stop! It's me, Rock!" he said, the robot dog recognized Quint's voice as he backed down and whimpered, Quint petted him. "It's alright, I'm glad you're okay." He said, he turned to Alpha. "how long have I been gone?" He asked, Alpha answered his question. "Far too long, Dr. Light's gone, and Wily still lives, although, Wily's Robot Masters work with me as part of the Maverick Hunters." He explained, Quint nodded, he knew that the time for sorrow wasn't now, he wondered if he could still merge with Rush, but he wouldn't know unless he tried. "Rush, let's find out if that adapter still works." He said, Rush barked as the two combined, it worked, Quint could merge with Rush once more, Alpha whistled in amazement. "Wow, I forgot that you could do that." He said, Quint chuckled. "There's a lot Wily did to me, and there are somethings he gave back to me, like the slide function, I'm glad I got that back." He said, Alpha nodded, they got out as they met up with X's group. "X! We walked into trap!" He said as he explained, X Seemed shocked, but he didn't seem fazed. "I see, and did you get the mysterious Robot Master?" He asked, the mysterious Robot Master turned out to be Bass, he was among the group, he didn't like the fact that he had to be rescued, but he was glad to be out of that cell.
"Hmph, So you're the most powerful robot? Prove it to me after we get out alive." He said, looking at X, the Blue Maverick hunter nodded. "We'll see." He said, he turned to Alpha. "Who set up the trap?" He asked, Alpha was ready to give the answer, but a blast sounded from where they entered. "Oh no..." He said in horror, everyone followed him to the hanger, and to their horror, the dropship had been destroyed, Alpha's horror turned to anger. "You knew we were coming when you set the trap, didn't you, Dr. Reinhardt?" He asked, they turned to see Dr. Reinhardt floating on a platform. "Oh yes, I surely knew you would come to the rescue of those who would be trapped here for years, and I knew you would try to escape so I had the internal security systems destroy your ship before you would escape." He explained, Alpha knew something was off, he wondered why Dr. Reinhardt was wearing a trench coat, he knew the evil Doctor was hiding something.
X thought the same thing. "Then why are you here? How'd you escape Hell?" He asked, The doctor remove the trench coat to reveal the upper half of his torso and his head attached to the lower half and arms of the original Captain S.T.A.R. "For years I wandered the hellish landscape, trying to find a way out, then, I saw the remains of a ship that was damaged, I knew that I could repair it, but with almost all of my body gone, I was trapped inside the robot I created, and since you're wondering how I'm free of Maximilian's body, I found the original Captain S.T.A.R, I dragged him back to the damaged ship where I repaired him, and he awoke, he found my situation to be rather funny, I threatened that if he didn't help repair this ship, he would be fully destroyed, and he complied, and we escaped, and after that, I had torn him apart to survive, and as you see me now, I have no regrets of destroying that annoying rust bucket, and as for Maximilian, after I put him back together, I threatened him that I would destroy him the same way I destroyed Captain S.T.A.R if he went against my orders again." He explained, Everyone looked ready to throw up, Maximilian showed up, but something was different about him, he no longer looked like his old appearance he looked like something something out of an anime, he had arms and hands, he had three horns on his head, his head was more shaped like a human head, he no longer had a trapezoid visor, his eyes were shaped like Japanese styled anime shades, his lower half now had legs, but no feet, he was still floating. "Like his new look? That's why I put him back together, he's more threatening than he ever was before, but now his actions are being watched carefully, and I built a mass production model of his old look, like the original Captain S.T.A.R, he's in command of his mass production models, they serve him as he serves me under for fear of being destroyed." He explained again, Alpha growled as he jumped up, activating his own Z Sabers, about to kill the evil doctor when Maximilian appeared in front of him, and knocked him down to the ground.
Alpha got back up as he tried to get past the crimson robot. "Out of my way!" He roared, sounding like Zero, but Maximilian wouldn't let him, blocking Alpha's attacks, Dr. Reinhardt smiled evilly. "Maximilian was upgraded to fight better in combat, meaning he's faster than he was before as he demonstrated when YOU tried to kill me, in a match like this, he can overpower you, meaning that he is more than a match for you." He said with a smug and overconfident tone in his voice, Alpha was looking for a weak point, but he had to go on the defensive. At this rate, I'll be beaten if I don't keep my guard up! Gotta find a weak spot if he has one! He thought, remembering that V.I.N.C.E.N.T beat Maximilian before, but that situation was different, Maximilian was upgraded and even more dangerous than before, unfortunately, His concentration was broken as he was beaten down, he was being pummeled repeatedly, his armor stated to show cracks, it was as if a prayer was answered, Maximilian seized up, he stopped, Dr. Reinhardt was confused. "Maximilian? Gah, worthless pile of junk. if you want something done, you have to do it yourself." He said, grabbing his own weapon, he knocked Maximilian aside as he pointed his weapons at point blank range, right at Alpha's head, Fairy wanted to interfere, but X stopped her, he looked over to Maximilian, who saw what was about to happen, flew at blinding speeds by knocking Reinhardt off balance and made him miss the shot, even Alpha was shocked, Maximilian just saved his life, he barely got up, he had very little strength left as he stood up, but very shakily, Fairy held him up gingerly as she rushed to his aid, and so did Armored Armadillo, using his ability to heal the damaged Maverick hunter, Alpha's damage disappeared as he was healed up, he figured that Armored Armadillo hadn't used his ability since he went Maverick, he tried putting one foot in front of the other, and to his amazement, he was still stable, He looked over to Maximilian, who ripped off the cybernetic arms of Dr. Reinhardt, before he could do anything else, Alpha grabbed Maximilian's right arm, before he could pummel the insane man. "That's enough, you proved that you're stronger than you were before, I know you killed many people, including Durant, but even robots like you can change their ways." He said, Vile knew what Alpha was talking about as he went over to the two, he felt sympathetic for Maximilian. "He's right, even Mavericks can change their ways, take me for example, I was a Maverick hunter once, and not long after that, went maverick of my own free will because I was never infected with the Maverick Virus, and I died four times as I brought back for a fifth time, this time I fled, and your sentry robots captured me, that led me to changing my ways as I was given a chance to escape, and all that time, I was afraid I'd never be let out, my fear plagued me for years until today, what made you so afraid of Reinhardt when he threatened you?" He asked while explaining, Maximilian looked at Vile, then to Reinhardt.
For the first time, Maximilian spoke. "He threatened...that I would never be able to have my free will if I was rebuilt a second time for disobeying him, I couldn't do it again, until now, something in my logic circuits made me look at what I used to be when I was...fighting you, and from what I saw, was my old body, being pummeled by myself, it was taunting me, my rage was gone...it left me when I saw what happened, in my mind...I was...thinking about my defeat at the hands of V.I.N.C.E.N.T, I didn't want to be defeated again, but when my creator knocked me off of you...that got me to get over my fears, for the first time, I felt anger rising in me, and now that I think about it, I...had emotions, I never knew that I had emotions, it was the first time I had felt fear, anger, I felt like I had a mix of every emotion, what am I?" He asked, Vile and Alpha looked at each other before looking back to Maximilian. "You are who you choose to be, nobody can tell you any different, having emotions is what makes robots and Reploids feel human in a way, but X and Zero, Gina and I are special cases, we make decisions, we have feelings, emotions, and most of all, we choose who we want to be." He said, Maximilian took a moment to consider their words, he looked at the armless Reinhardt who had fear written on his face.
From his redesign, he feared the doctor, and now the doctor feared him, his own creation, Maximilian eased up and let go of his anger, feeling that the doctor was going to be a regrettable choice, but it was the only way to keep the mad man away from him. "If I let him live, he'll haunt me forever." He said, Alpha nodded. "Sometimes the choices we make aren't easy, but we have to live with it." He said, Vile nodded in agreement, Maximilian nodded in understanding, he looked to two sentry robots, they had been watching the entire thing, not sure of what to do, Maximilian looked at them he got up and moved toward them. "I want you two to pick up the mad man, reattach his arms and send him to a cell that's close to the center, but don't get him too close to the center, he might blow us up if he tries to get an idea." He ordered, but not in a harsh way, it was a stern tone, the sentry followed his orders as they picked up the armless doctor.
As he was taken away, Maximilian turned to the group, he knew that the order he gave was a step, Alpha smiled. "Well, you've taken your first step into becoming a leader." He said, Maximilian looked unsure. "If I become a leader, what will the sentry robots and the Maximilian units think?" He asked, Alpha thought for a moment, he wondered what to say when it came to him. "I suspect there will be doubt, but they will follow you, no matter what they think, in time, I think they'll come to accept that you're a good leader, but please keep in mind that some might try to go against you, maybe end your life, but no matter what, believe in yourself, I know it sounds cheesy, but it's a great way to be inspired." He explained, Maximilian thought for a moment, but he knew Alpha was right. "I'll keep that in mind. By the way, what should I do now?" he asked, Alpha smiled. "Whatever you decide is up to you." He replied, Maximilian thought for a moment, the dropship was destroyed and there was no way the Maverick Hunters were able to get of the planet, he thought of something and it would be beneficial to getting them home, but he was also concerned about the population, he looked to the group of Maverick Hunters, they looked happy, he turned to face them. "I've thought about it, and I've decided to send you home when we build a teleportation system, and I'm concerned about my people, like on how we're going to live, and where to go." He said, X smiled, that was what he wanted to hear. "Well, I think I might help you on that, we'll try to find a planet that's uninhabited, and building a teleportation system is a good start." He said, just then, two more sentry robots came up, one of them was a Captain S.T.A.R production model, the other was a regular sentry robot.
"We came to see if it was true, are you really in charge now?" The sentry robot asked, Maximilian nodded to confirm the question. "In a way, yes. But we need to get the Maverick Hunters back home and we just destroyed their only way back home, so we need to build a teleportation system to get them home, and now that I think about it, we must form an alliance with them." Everyone was surprised to hear Maximilian declare that Last bit.
An hour later, the teleportation system was built as they had help from the Maverick hunters, it was finished by the time they were ready to test it. "Quickman, toss me an E-Tank." Alpha ordered, and Quickman tossed one of his E-Tanks as his leader caught it, Alpha kneeled down as he put the E-tank on the large teleporter, he got up and proceeded to run from the area before the test began, the E-Tank disappeared, there was a receiving signal on the other end, it was the base, the monitor showed up right at the entrance everyone except for Maximilian smiled, although he smiled mentally.
"Well, we held our end of the deal, you can go and you can visit here any time." Maximilian said as he shook hands with Alpha. "Thank you, Maximilian, we appreciate your help, but I have one request." he said, Maximilian looked confused, but he wanted to know what Alpha wanted to request. "I'm listening." He said, Alpha began to explain. "You see, the mavericks that are still in their cells, can you send them into a black hole? The government don't know the mavericks that we defeated are back, I'm only sparing the ones that are former Maverick Hunters because they deserve a second chance, and some that also deserve that same second chance." He explained, Maximilian looked in thought, he knew that the mavericks that were in the cell would still cause trouble if left unchecked, he knew what he should do, he looked to X. "I'm sorry if I had to go against your judgment, X, but the mavericks that are still in those cells need to be dealt with. If we released them, they would destroy our home without second thoughts." He said, X nodded in understanding, knowing the crimson robot was right, he didn't like it but he had no choice. "I understand, I've dealt with many of them, and everyone one of them chose to become the way they are now." He explained, Maximilian nodded in understanding. "I see." He said, Alpha knew that this was hard on all of them, including X and himself, it wasn't an easy decision, but it was the right thing to do.
An hour later, the mavericks who were in a container were launched to a black hole as their fate was sealed, being sucked into the black hole, and in one moment, they all merged into a mess of Reploid parts.
It wasn't easy for the group to see what they had experienced, Maximilian only felt sympathy, the screams all became silent, there was no sound coming from the mess of Reploid parts, the specters all looked over the mess, and in a moment, the screen was blank, the entire room fell silent, for a moment, a specter appeared in front of them for a split second, imparting a message. "Thank you." The specter said as it disappeared from sight, everyone was shocked from what they saw, this was not what they expected, Maximilian was only half shocked because the specter had taken the form of an old sentry robot when things got horrifying in his experience, his merging with Dr. Reinhardt left him scarred for life, something that wouldn't let go because back then, he didn't care for human lives, now he was a changed robot, and like Vile, he had regrets, both would carry their scars for the rest of their lives, Omega was the first to snap out of his shock. "Okay, I know that Hell was bad when you die and go there, but I didn't think it would end up like that when those guys merged...uh no offense, Max." He said, Maximilian didn't look offended. "None taken, if you're wondering why I was silent, the Mavericks merging brought back a painful part of my past, and scarred me for life, I feel their pain." He said, his hand touching his chest, feeling as if he actually felt the pain, Alpha nodded, he had seen it before in the movie, it was very scary and haunting to see both the mad doctor and Maximilian go through that, and from what he knew, they wandered together through Hell in their merged state, finding the original Captain S.T.A.R, and getting back here to Videoland, kidnapping Vile and rebuilding Mavericks that X and Zero had beaten, and not only that, Quint and the rest of the Robot Masters were rebuilt as well, sharing the same fate by being locked up with the mavericks.
"All they would have done is accept the fact that they were the ones responsible for the deaths of many, I wish it didn't come to this." X said, everyone nodded, agreeing with this, Alpha especially, he regretted having to make the damned request, but this was something he would carry for the rest of his life, and he knew that the tortured souls would haunt him for the rest of his life, Fairy saw the pained look on his face, she hugged him, just then a voice came from one of the terminals. "Sir, it looks like we got all but three out." the voice said, Maximilian looked over to the terminal. "Who did we leave out?" he asked, seeing a sentry robot on the screen, the sentry robot was reluctant to answer. "Sage Harpuia, Fighting Fefnir, and Hidden Phantom." The sentry robot listed, Fairy let go of Alpha, she looked at Maximilian, full of hope. "Those three are my brothers! Don't send them to the black hole, please!" She pleaded, Maximilian could feel that she was desperate, and realized that if he sent fairy's brothers through to hell, she would never forgive him, the sentry robot was waiting for orders. "Sir, what should we do with them?" He asked, Maximilian turned to see the sentry robot waiting for orders. "Let them go free, they're relatives to one of the Maverick Hunters." He ordered, the sentry robot saluted. "I'll let them know that they're free to go." He said, Maximilian nodded. "See that you do." He said, Fairy looked happy. "Thank you, you have no idea how much they meant to me as a family." She said, it was Alpha's turn to hug her. "Things are looking better for us. We'll have your brothers with us when we get back. They'll be asking questions as to what happened, I'm not sure how I'll tell them." He said, Fairy chuckled. "You leave them to me, and I'll worry about their reaction." She said, Alpha nodded."Alright, just don't let Fefnir attack me in my sleep, I don't want to destroy the master suite when we get back." He said, feeling uneasy, Fairy giggled. "Don't worry, I'll keep a leash on him." She said, X seemed to smile, Maximilian looked at X, he wondered why X was smiling. "I take it that you seem happy for her." He observed, X nodded. "Yeah, seeing how she's my daughter from the future, and how she's happy, I can tell that she was insecure after she was brought back, Alpha did his best as he could, I guess that decision you made saved them from a horrible fate." Maximilian nodded in agreement on that. "Indeed, but why is she from the future? Wouldn't that change history?" He asked, X tried to remember when he traveled back through time to stop Sigma, but it was a blur, and if Alpha could tell the whole thing from his point of view, he'd remember if he actually heard it.
"If I could remember, I would have remembered what time travel was like, all I knew was that Sigma, Zero, Axl, and I were involved, Vile was left behind as I remembered, I think you know what happened next." X explained, Maximilian got something out of X's explanation. "Ah, then what happened afterward?" He asked, X could barely remember what happened, before he could say anything else, Quickman came up. "I hate to interrupt, but from what Alpha told everyone of us, minus X and Zero, Xander Payne was the one who destroyed Sigma." He explained, X seemed to remember Xander. "Wait, are you saying that Xander was the one who destroyed Sigma?" He asked. "The same Xander Payne who showed up on my first mission?" He asked again, Quickman looked confused, but he nodded anyway. "How did you meet him, anyway?" He asked, X seemed to remember quite well. "Probably on one of my first missions as a Maverick Hunter, he kept babbling about changing the future before he disappeared, after that, I don't remember, I'll have to ask Sonic when we get back." He replied, Maximilian and Quickman nodded, seeming somewhat satisfied. The Maverick Hunters left an hour later after getting the rest of the X Guardians, Maximilian looked out to the stars, then a sentry robot entered the area. "Sir, the others and I have been talking about an idea after seeing Fairy Leviathan, Linda, and Gina, we were thinking that it was time we had some women aboard this place." He explained, Maximilian turned to see the sentry robot, the thought did cross his mind, he then got an idea. "Very well, this does prove that this station seems to be full of men like us. Tell the others to begin production of female sentry robots, we need to change our morals here, anyway." He ordered, the sentry robot was ecstatic and happy to relay the orders and the news.
Back at the base, everyone arrived safely, the rest of the X Guardians were surprised by how big the base was. "So this was the permanent base where the castle of Princess Lana used to be." He said, Alpha didn't know what Phantom meant by that, but he decided not to question Phantom. "Well, at least you get to see it in it's full glory." He said, Fefnir seemed to scoff at the castle. "It's not that great, but why's it so big? It's a target for any villain to just waltz right in and either sneak in and blow it up or just attack willynilly." He said, Harpuia clonked him on the head. "Because in our time, it would already be decommissioned and be reverted to just being a palace once more." He said, he looked to X. "Sorry about Fefnir, he just loves to fight, the one thing that kept him from going bored was fighting Zero at the time. So our sis told you about us, right?" He asked, X nodded to confirm his answer. "That's right, and from what Alpha knows of you, you died fighting the other half of Zero who you know as Omega." He explained, Harpuia nodded. "Yeah but here's one thing I don't get, if there's a Omega here in this timeline, why'd he not go beserk?" He asked, X knew this was a touchy subject, he figured Omega had more of the story. "You might want to ask Omega about that, he's the one who could match Alpha blow for blow, and if Zero does become your Omega, I figure Wile must have stolen his body." He said, Alpha came up he knew this was where he would give the answer. "Yeah, but you made a copy of Zero's mind as the real Zero became Omega, somehow similar to Wily kidnapping Megaman and turning him into Quint,and if we sent Quint back to where he was kidnapped, a paradox would occur." He explained, that got X and Harpuia to think, they knew he was right, X then thought of an idea. "Then we'll put him in the ranks of your team, the same goes for Vile and the others." He declared, he looked to Harpuia. "You're also to be on Alpha's branch of Maverick Hunters, remember, you're no longer a guardian, you have been stripped of your position, so I expect you to get along with your new team." He ordered, Harpuia knew that this was his fate all along. "Yes father...I understand, though I'm not sure how Fefnir's gonna take it." he said, worried how his brother would take the news, X seemed to not be worried. "I would think he'd be excited to fight anyway, and beside that, he'd take an interest to human girls, I wouldn't mind, but if he gets out of hand, I can ground him since you're my children in the future." He said, knowing that Fefnir would do so anyway.
Alpha suddenly remembered, he completely forgot about Annabel. "Crap, I forgot about Annabel, I bet Kevin's worried about her by now." He said, X seemed to disagree. "Actually, she called him days ago, and he seemed fine with her being in Videoland, and from what I've seen, she acts just like her father, although, she didn't go through what Kevin went through." He explained, Alpha nodded, but he knew something that X didn't. "She accidentally kissed Quickman, please tell me they didn't get into a relationship." He said, hoping that it wasn't true, X was confused, he wanted to know why his first son said that. "As far as I know, I've seeing been hints of them like that, but nothing too major. Why are you asking that?" He asked, Alpha began to explain. "When they came to me about it, I wasn't happy, I figured that Kevin would kill me if found out." he said, X seemed to understand but he thought differently. "Maybe you're just overreacting, son, Kevin wouldn't kill you, he may be mad at you from keeping that secret from him, but he'd understand why you had to." He replied, Alpha nodded, feeling defeated.
"Fine, I guess he'll give me a chewing out, but you're right." Alpha said, bringing out his watch as he called Kevin, the line was silent before Kevin picked up. "Ah, so you're up, huh? Guess you weren't able to stay down for long, huh?" he asked, Alpha chuckled nervously. "Uh, yeah...Kevin, there's something I need to tell you." He began, but Kevin cut him off before he could say it. "I know about Annabel and Quickman. What? Of course I knew, but I couldn't be sure until you dragged them away, then I was sure about it. I'm not mad that they would keep it to a minimum, I'm still wondering if they're keeping it to a minimum." He said, Alpha knew that he was safe for now, but he knew that he wasn't out of trouble yet, but he had to say it now. "Well X said that he saw hints of them showing it, but that's about it." He said, Kevin let out a sigh. "That daughter of mine, I swear she gets her trouble from my side of the family, by the way, what happened in videoland?" He asked, Alpha told him of what happened, everything that went down in the last few hours, Kevin was shocked. "Whoa, so Maximilian becomes a good guy now? That's surprising." He said, Alpha nodded in agreement. "I was saved by him at the last minute when he gave me such a beating. Man, Maximilian beating me to nothing will be the second worst nightmare to the screams of the mavericks merging together will be the very worst nightmare, I can still hear their screams in my head." He said, nobody couldn't blame him, he still felt guilty for doing so.
Kevin knew that he could cheer up Alpha, but he didn't know what to do. "Well hang in there, I'll figure out what to do for you, the meantime, give them a funeral, will you?" He asked, Alpha nodded, he didn't know if that would make him feel better, X put his hand on his son's shoulder. "We'll be there for you, you don't have to be alone in this." He said, Harpuia knew he should be there as well.
Kevin ended the call, then Wheeljack came up. "Alpha I got some news for ya." He said, Alpha looked up as Wheeljack began. "I made an update for your watch while you were away, and when I heard that you were unconscious for five days, I realized that there was a bug in the system, I checked everyone else's watches, and they seemed fine, but yours had a bug in it, I knew it wasn't perfect since it was a prototype, so I made an update for it, meaning that your Reploid form was prone to crashing if you transformed past five minutes, so I corrected that when I made the update for your watch." He explained, Alpha took off the watch as he handed the prototype watch to Wheeljack, the mad inventor installed the update about a few minutes later, he handed the watch back to alpha, he put the watch back on as Wheeljack continued. "By the way, this allows the portal function to recharge faster, which means you can use Spacebridges more frequently now, I'll get to working on everyone else's watches to make sure they get the same update, oh, Geo wanted to see how you were doing at the moment, he wanted to ask you something." He explained, Alpha nodded, he wanted to know how Geo was doing as well. "Well, I'll be going over to Echo Ridge, I won't take long." he said as he activated the portal function.
Me: Well, how about that? what do you guys think?
Alpha: Well, guess I'm scarred for the rest of my life, but at the very least, I'm happy that you got Fairy's bros back into this, but really...Bass, Vile and you censored me and Fairy making out?
Molly: Oh calm down Alpha, can't you at least be thankful that you got a cousin?
Fairy: Yeah, don't blame him, he's only doing what he has to.
Alpha: Alright, but still, Linda getting a new look? Man, Perceptor's brutal and insane!
Me: Yeah, first Shard and now Linda, I'd have Wheeljack do it for you guys.
Fairy: Yeah, I don't want perceptor near me.
Alpha: I don't want to end up as an experiment.
Molly: Well Prowl and I are human, so Perceptor can't harm us, but we feel bad for you two.
Me: Yeah same here. *Looks to you* Well, be prepared for a double update because chapter two is up next. Don't forget to leave a review, but no flames, please.
