Mega Man Zero Resurrection

Chapter 12

The Legend Returns

With numerous losses because of the power of Zero; the 'god of destruction' fear has begun to set into the hearts Neo-Arcadians. Not only has fear and dread begun to take its toll but rumors have arisen that Master X is nothing but a copy of the true X. The four Generals have begun to look troubled and some doubt that they have full loyalty to Master X still. Personally, I still believe that Master X is who he says he is. Still, with strange things occurring in Giga City I feel some concern that maybe, just maybe the 'god of destruction' is telling the truth…

He looked out across his empire as Leviathan announced that she had begun to hack into the resistance computers.

"Excellent Leviathan. Fefnir and Phantom told me that he is trying to convince my generals that I am merely a fake. Do not be deceived if he attacks and says something like that to you. You must not fall into his trap. He is nothing but a maverick. Admittedly, he has been called the 'god of destruction' but, your strength is far greater than the legendary being that you are named after. Now listen carefully, Zero is strongest on land and in confined corridors. Your strengths can counter his. Don't let him get close and you will have a much better chance at beating him. As to the land issue… I give you permission to melt the ice in the hidden base."

"Thank you Master X." She bowed as the transmission ended.

"Soon he will be on the tip of Leviathan's spear. Knowing at last that my forces are superior to him…"

"Why did you rescue them Vile?" Iris asked.

Vile didn't reply.

"You didn't have to save them. You could have left them there… So why did you save them?"

Vile sighed at her persistence.

"What is so important about that?" He replied irritably.

"Because I think it proves that you have a measure of good that you have been hiding all this time."

"You wish! I'm just here to find out how to become stronger that Zero. I will be the one that changes the future."

"You can't do it like that Vile."

Vile merely shrugged and left the room.

"Vile… I see the good within you. Why won't you accept the truth?" Iris asked after the door shut behind the heavily armed Reploid.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"Such a foolish idea. Me, good? As if!" Vile said as he began to walk down the hall to his room.

A moment after he got on the elevator he began to feel the effects of the damages he had received by fighting Zero. A shower of sparks emitted from his right shoulder; under his shoulder pad.

"Looks like I pushed myself too far…" He whispered before collapsing.

He heard the elevator stop and saw a number of green clad reploids. They were talking. His sensors were shorting out so he couldn't understand what they were saying.
OPTICAL SENSORS OFFLINE

His damage control system announced a moment before he lost consciousness.

"Attention all residents of Giga City, Reploids have come into Giga City illegally. These reploids are cloaked and are interested in destabilizing Giga City. Report any suspicious reploids to the nearest security guard or Rebellion soldier."

He clenched his fist. They had made it impossible to conceal himself any longer. If only he had a copy chip to change form… He shook his head and beckoned to his comrade. The cloaked Reploid was obviously female because of the way she walked.

"Our identities are impossible to conceal if we are to continue to operate here… However, thanks to the communications being jammed we should be able to hide who we are to the rest of the world for some time." The taller Reploid said to his operator.

A white gloved hand reached up to his left shoulder. A moment later the brown cloak was pulled off and a blue Reploid stood holding the garment in his right hand. His armor was almost completely blue and his green eyes stared intently at his companion.

She shook her head and the hood of the cloak fell down. Her blond hair caressed her face and her blue eyes opened. A second later she had removed her cloak. Her armor was pink and white but the majority of her body had the black suit covering her.

"Well X, I bet this will be quite a shock to Giga City."

X smiled at her.

"So do I Alia."

SO MEGA MAN X STILL LIVES... I HOPE YOU LIKED THIS LATEST CHAPTER IN MEGA MAN ZERO RESURRECTION. POOR VILE THOUGH...

SINCERELY, GARDIAN X
