I do not own Mega Man Zero or any of its characters.


21XX...

Site:... Crash of Ragnaroc

Zero's Status:... Retired.


Zero's helmet lay in the ground, broken by the force of the crash of Ragnaroc. Back at the Resistance Base, the transporter operator stood in shock, as did all of the staff.

"Mission... Success." She said, almost ready to cry.

Ciel looked down at the floor. "Oh, Zero." She thought. She looked up at the people of the Resistance who were looking at her.

"Zero has brought us freedom. Today is the day that Zero saved us by sacrificing himself." She announced, her lip quivering. Alouette softly cried, thinking about her hero.

Ciel left the room and went outside. It was night now, and stars filled the sky.

"No matter how distant you seem to be, Zero, you will always be in our hearts." she said, eyes filling up with tears and looking at the sky, "I believe in you."

Farther away, on a cliff in the canyon where Ragnaroc crashed, two figures stood. They both wore the same type of shirt, one being red, the other blue. The reploid in the blue shirt had a distinct scar on his face with a huge gun on his back and a sword in his sheath. He was fairly brawny character with green eyes. The other figure was easy to recognize. He was completely identical to Zero except for his hand which had the last Greek letter on it. The letter standing for Omega.

"What do we do now, Omega?" the reploid in blue asked.

Omega lowered his head and closed his eyes. "Zero... Our battle's over. My battle is over. I have no purpose in life now." Omega looked up and turned to his companion.

"Uh, Omega? I don't like it when you grin that way." the reploid in blue said uneasily.

"Let's go stir trouble for the resistance."

"Are you crazy? You'll get us both killed!" the blue reploid exclaimed.

Omega grinned, a grin that he liked to use to make Alpha uneasy, "You forget." he said, turning his hand so that it would show his Omega symbol, "I'm an almost exact duplicate of Zero. Replace this with a Z, and I'll be the new Zero."

Alpha put his hand on his chin, "That would work except for your eyes. They're kind of reddish."

Omega shrugged, "Then we'll replace them!"

"Yeah. Like anyone would do that for you."

Omega gave his grin again, causing Alpha to scratch his leg with his other foot. "You're a mechanic, you can do it."

"Okay, where would I get the parts?" Alpha said.

Omega started to think. Then he got an idea. "You've got green eyes. You buy me some blue eyes and then replace my red eyes with them."

Alpha sighed. "Okay, but if I get killed it's your fault!"

"Excellent! Now get moving."
