Hello world, and welcome to my first story. Being a new writer and all, there really isn't much to say, except that this story is a Mega Man ZX Advent story and that it is my first and that it may be a bit naive. Just note that this is after ZX Advent and the personality of the Mega Men have changed a little bit. I do accept constructive criticism, but please, no flames. Enjoy!

Chapter 1: The Beast Mega Man
It has been three months since the Albert incident where the two Model A chosen ones Ashe and Grey defeated the so-called god and Model W. The two of them went there separate ways, Ashe wanting to stick with the hunters and Grey, along with model A, going to find their place in the world (AN: I haven't seen the Ashe ending, so sorry for the inaccuracy). Though Albert was defeated, evil still lurked around the world.
Forest, Unknown Area, 1:43 PM
"Man, this place sure is peaceful," Grey said aloud while walking on the path, Model A floating right next to him. It was just after lunch and had just packed up camp, hoping to reach the next town, village, or city before nightfall.
"That's great and all, but I want to see some action! C'mon, lets go Maverick hunting!" Model A said, spinning around. Grey could only sigh at his metallic friend. Though he wouldn't admit it himself, he wanted some action as well, for it had been two weeks since they had saved a town from a small scale Maverick attack. Aside from the occasional hostile mechaniloid, there wasn't much to do. Grey just sighed again as they moved on.
Suddenly, a humanoid shape jumped out of a tree and landed in front of the two travelers, its eyes gleaming.
"What is that!" Grey asked, hands reaching for his gun.
"I don't know, but it looks like we found our action!" Model A said. "C'mon, lets megamerge!"
"You got it!" Grey said as he snatched Model A into his hand. "Megamerge!" Grey shouted he pointed Model A up into the sky, causing a bright light to shine.
"Biolink established. M.E.G.A. System, online!" Model A automatically said as he and Grey merged. Soon the light vanished and the two emerged in their Mega Man form, staring down the adversary. All of a sudden, the adversary charged and Grey began shooting. He missed a few times before one struck the adversary in the chest, causing him to halt his dash and hold up a hand.
"Who are you?" Grey said cautiously.
"Another Mega Man, huh? Never thought you would be one," the adversary said. "But hey, life is full of surprises," he said as he stepped out of the shadows.
"Wait, you're a Mega Man too?" Grey asked, astonished.
"Yep, nice to meet you. The name's Jackal, and I'm the Model D Mega Man!" the adversary said as he fully emerged from the shadows with a buster in one hand and a Z saber in the other. His armor was silver with black lines running down from the top of the helmet to the boots. The helmet was shaped like the head of the Greiga beast out form and the armor followed suit. The only exception was that the mask that covered the bottom of the face was gone and that there were two shoulder pads that were shaped like an upside-down trapezoid with two spikes on either side.
"So do you live around here?" Grey asked as the two Mega Men walked down the path both having returned to their reploid forms. Jackal was dressed in a getup similar to Vent's except with a tan shirt and gray pants.
"Yep. There's a small town up ahead that leads to some ruins. And that's where I found Model D," he said, pointing to one of the taller structures.
"What's your power, Model D?" Model A asked to the biometal floating next to him. It was shaped like a print of a three clawed beast. It was colored silver like the armor but had blue on the top of its face and had two black lines run from the left and right claws and intersect at the face, creating a black X mask look.
"First off, I'm the beast biometal," Model D stated. "My power is that I can copy the data of any weapon or piece of armor and make an exact copy of it," Model D continued.
"He can also store the data, if I so choose, and save it for integration," Jackal said while grinning, showing his semi fangs.
"What's that?" Grey asked, slight curiosity shining in his eyes, wanting to know more about this new biometal.
"Integration is when we take the data of two weapons and combine them to create a new weapon that is totally unique," Jackal stated. "In a way, Model D is like the counterpart to Model A; They both have copying powers, just both are a bit unique. Except, Model D is a bit of a jackass sometimes," Jackal said, snickering.
"Hey! You shouldn't be talking, shrimp!" Model D yelled at Jackal.
"Who you calling a shrimp? I am normal sized! Besides, look who's talking!" Jackal responded, veins bulging out of his head.
"Kinda reminds me of us when we first met," Model A said as the two bickered in the background. All of a sudden, a huge shadow loomed over them, causing the small group to look up. When they looked up, they saw a huge Maverick ship pass over them that was soon followed by another airship.
"What the heck was that?" Jackal asked. "Airships aren't a common sight around here."
"The first ship was a Maverick ship," Grey responded, looking in the direction the two ships flew off. "And the other one was a ship known as Guardian Base, an airship that is home to-"
"The Guardians, I know. It's been a while since I've seen them. Wonder if those two are still with them," Jackal said, a look of concern beginning to show on his face. " That's the direction of the ruins… and the town."
"Then what are we waiting for? Lets hurry!" Model D said. The two Mega Men megamerged and went off in the direction of the two ships.
Forest Clearing, Unknown Area, 2:18 PM
At the clearing, the two ships had engaged with each other, both in the air and on the ground, with the Guardians losing on both fronts. On the ground, the Mega Men, Aile, Atlas, Siarnaq, Aeolus, and Thetis were engaging the Maverick's ground forces. Though they had the help of the Guardians, they were quickly being overwhelmed.
"I really don't think that we can take much more, I'm seriously running out of steam," Atlas said, her breathing heavy as she incinerated several Galleons. " How many of these damn things are there?" She exclaimed as she was electrocuted by a Galleon Shocker.
"Enemy numbers exceed 500. I'm near my limit. My efficiency has dropped by 4.5%," Siarnaq mumbled as his shuriken sliced several Galleons before boomeranging back to him. "You got to be kidding me," he sighed as Galleons surrounded him and he dodged their shots.
"They don't let up. Oh well. Ice Dragons, go!" Thetis yelled as he conjured several Ice Dragons that immediately destroyed their foes on contact. But, like all Ice Dragons, they eventually shatter. "Oh sh-" Thetis began to say before a shot hit him square in the chest, knocking him back.
"This is ridiculous. They can't be this hard to defeat. They're just lowly mechaniloids," Aeolus complained, using his sonic boom combo to blow away a hoard of Galleons. Aeolus growled before clashing swords with a Galleon Assault.
"I can't believe we're being overrun," Aile said as she blew a hole through several Galleons with a charged shot. "Ugh!" she shouted as she was hit by a rocket."It's gonna take a miracle to pull through this," Aile groaned.
Just as things were looking bad for the Guardians, several shots were heard that homed in on the Galleons, taking them out. Those shots were soon followed by Grey and Jackal . The Grey relaxedas a huge cube shaped sight surrounded him."Lets go! Giga Crush! AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!" Grey shouted as a huge flurry of bullets and shells flew from his busters and destroyed every Galleon unlucky enough to be in the range of this devastating attack. "Gotcha," Grey said, exhausted from the use of the powerful attack. Jackal had found some Galleon Wings and decided to play at there level.
"Model D, copy one of those Galleon Wing packs. Make it stronger and more powerful so it can support me, and add blade tips to the wings for an Aero Dash," Jackal commanded as he held out his hand.
"Copy that," Model D said as a beam of light shot out from Jackal's hand and proceeded to copy the flight pack. After the light retreated, the flight pack materialized on his back as ordered in a shade of dark green to represent the wind.
"Alright here goes!" Jackal yelled as he flew up into the air in front of Guardian Base. "See ya later!" he yelled with a smile like Prometheus's before shouting his ultimate attack. "Razing Storm! HIYAAAAAAHHHH!" he yelled as a huge array of guns appeared and shot bullet, grenades, and rockets and destroyed the Galleon Wings and heavily damaged their ship, bringing it down and causing several explosions. "And that is that," Jackal said as he descended back to the ground tiredly.
Once everybody had regrouped, there were many "thank you's" towards the two Mega Man. Once that ended, it was time to get back to work
"Alright, everybody back to the base. Treat the severely wounded first. Vent will be there to help as well (AN: Vent was needed to protect the ship)," Aile commanded as the Guardians boarded the ship. She then turned to Grey and Jackal. "Thank you both for your help. We would have sustained more casualties and probably would have been overwhelmed," Aile said with happiness and relief that the whole ordeal was over.
"It's no problem at all," Grey said with a smile.
"Though a small payment would be nice," Model D said before being whacked by Jackals buster.
"Shaddap. We don't ask for payment." "By the way, the name's Jackal" Jackal said, extending his hand towards Aile, which she gladly accepted. "Before you ask any questions, yes, I am a Mega Man. I found Model D in the ruins over there," He said, pointing in the general direction.
"I'm Model D, the beast biometal, and what Jackal said is true, he did find me in the ruins," Model D responded.
"So there are other biometals. Huh, I never knew that was possible. I always thought that the only biometals were mine, Model A, and the ones that belong to the other Mega Men, who knew?' Aile said with bewilderment evident on her face and in her voice.
"Aile!" someone shouted. They all turned in the direction of the voice. Coming from that direction were a few Guardians. "Some of us were investigating the crashed ship, and found something you might want to see," the Guardian said making a motion for them to come over.
"What is it?" Aile asked.
"Heh, you won't believe it till you see it," said the soldier as they all walked into the now crashed airship, unknowingly being watched.
Unknown Location, Unknown Area, Unknown Time
"So the Mavericks failed," a deep voice said from a holoscreen.
"Apparently so. Those Guardians would have been out of the way if it hadn't been for the Model A boy and that beast Mega Man. Those two have unique powers that just cannot be rivaled," The spy responded, bowing low.
"Hmm, I see. Those two will be the main threat to our plan," The voice said once again.
"Don't forget that there is the other Model A chosen one and the possibility that there are other Mega Men and biometals," another voice, that of a girl, responded from a different screen.
"If that is the case, we will recruit those other Mega Men to combat the chosen ones. Until then, I want you and Model S to watch those blasted Guardians, Sentra," the voice responded.
"I will not fail you," Sentra said.
"See to it that you don't," the girl said before the screen vanished.
So that's a wrap! I'm sorry if it sounds bad. Also, notice that some of the characters will be OOC, but that's because the brainwash Albert had on them was dissipated. Also, this is a romance fic but mostly an adventrue (heh Adventure) one, so… yeah. I'm sorry if this story sounds immature, but this is the first story I've been able to actually get down and not throw away a few months later. Please do note that I just found out that I just found out that Model D's powers are like the Zero Knuckle from Megaman Zero 4. Like I said, no flames, but constructive criticism would be nice Until next time (If you allow me)!
