This is my first Mega Man fic and I would like to say that this is a novelization of the game Mega Man Zero. I really liked the game so I decided to see what people's reactions would be if a novelization came out instead of an AU. This game only has some extra stuff I put in like the ending sequence for Zero in Mega Man X6 and some stuff from the manual. I hope you enjoy this short preview and review.

Prologue

A reploid stands in the shadows with a scientist. The reploid has been stripped of nearly all its armor and all that is left is a red helmet with a green crystal on it. The reploid had green eyes and long blond hair.

".I see. It'll take a while to get rid of this," said the scientist. "Even with the latest technology, it's hard to succeed.I'm not really sure if I can fix this completely."

"Don't worry," replied the reploid. "I must do it before it's too late."

The scientist pondered on this. "But you haven't had any problems yet... You'll be fine as you are, won't you? It's none of my business, but what will we do in a crisis without you?"

"Ha," laughed the reploid. "I'm sorry, but don't worry... There's a superior Maverick Hunter. But I'm scared that I may become a disturbing presence," the reploid replied. He walked towards a nearby capsule and entered it.

The scientist finally relented. ".I agree. You look ready."

"Yeah..." The reploid looked at the scientist. "So, when will I wake up?" he questioned.

There was a moment of silence. "If there is no problem." He hesitated before continuing. "It will be around August 15th, 102 years from now."

The reploid was unfazed by the truth. ".Right. Here's to a successful sleep."

"I'll do my best," replied the scientist. He pressed a few buttons and the capsule activated. It began running several programs and began its work. "Have a good sleep.Zero," murmured the scientist.

***

After the 6th Reploid War, caused by the Sigma Virus, Zero, the famous warrior and companion to the legendary hero Mega Man X, put himself to sleep in order to destroy the Zero Virus within himself.

During his 102 year sleep, Sigma rose once again and was defeated by X once more. This time, for good. The world then began to rebuild everything that had been destroyed in the chaos caused by the Reploid Wars. X established the city of Neo Arcadia, in which people could live peacefully. Unfortunately, X was struck with the idea that all reploids should be destroyed in order to end the threat of the Mavericks, reploids that become berserk.

Innocent reploids began to be butchered by the X-Droids, the army of the government and said to be duplicates of X himself except less strong and with no mind. They were arrested and prosecuted for no reason at all.

Some reploids were fortunate enough to be able to escape. Some escapees were caught in the process though and murdered. Ciel, a young female human scientist, saw a large amount of reploids butchered before her own eyes once and was then determined to help the escaped reploids.

In order to stay alive, reploids needed to mine energen crystals to eat. Unfortunately, as time passed, X began to take over the deposits. In this way, he was slowly starving the reploids. Ciel, seeing this, began research on a new type of energy. She also established a resistance in order to fight X and his minions, the Generals.

The fight was a hopeless cause as very few reploids were built to fight. The resistance troops were easily being overwhelmed and Ciel saw only one way out. She had heard that there was a legendary reploid named Zero that was in stasis somewhere near Neo Arcadia. She set out with a small contingent of troops in hopes that she could find him.

A blond-haired girl with dark blue eyes sat on a bed. A small reploid-like figure hovered nearby. "If the legend is true." she whispered to herself. "he might save us."
