Series: Megaman X (MXZ2) Chapter: 25
Megazero had gotten used to the reporters and the unnecessary attention after a few months. She watched the children play in the sand. She usually spent a good portion of the day at the park or the mall. Places where she could see families and how they acted. Something she barely remembers as a child. Something she hopes she can give her baby. She placed her hands on her stomach. It had grown a lot in the last few months. It was quite obvious, she was expecting. Marriage was no longer an option.Zero and her have had their share of arguments over the baby and a family and it seemed like there was nothing else she could do. Megazero had gotten over it and accepted it. Axl walked over to her.
"Here's the water you wanted." Megazero smiled and thanked him. The hunters took turns staying with Megazero, since her pregnancy was a danger and a target to mavericks. Axl didn't mind at all. He enjoyed the time they spent together. Axl watched the kids play and asked.
"Name?"
"Huh?"
"Have you thought of a name?" Megazero looked up at the trees and said.
"Well I don't know the sex but if it is a girl i think I will name her after my mother."
"And if it's a boy?"
"I'll leave it up to Zero."
"But he's not marrying you."
"But he's still the father." Axl said nothing. This is something that bothered him for the last few months since her pregnancy became obvious. He looked at her stomach. Once he started noticing it, reality kinda sunk in. They were just about to leave when Axl got a call.
"Axl report immediately to the teleportation area! We need all class S hunters here now!" Axl looked at Megazero and said.
"Do you wanna go with me? I mean you still are a Class S hunter." Megazero nodded.
"Yeah, let's go."
Zero and X were standing listening to Dr. Cain.
"It seems like sector 367 is strong with mavericks. The activity ratings are higher than ever recorded. I know we can't count on anyone other than you, if only Megazero wasn't on vacation, her help is very valuable here." Megazero and Axl walked in.
"Megazero, glad you could join us." Dr. Cain said and continued with his talk on the mission. Zero looked at Axl and Megazero and asked.
"What are you two doing here?"
"I am a leader from the S class and so I came to listen." She snapped at him.
"Look don't be mad because I'm not into the marriage idea." Megazero shot him a glare as Dr. Cain handed her a packet as well.
"That type of discussion would be for later. Thank you." Dr. Cain pointed at a map. "Well the only blue prints of the warehouse are these. Not very helpful in this situation since it's pretty much in ruins, but it gives you a basic idea of your surroundings. Well I need you to go and find out why here is so much activity and stop it." Zero and X rose and went to the teleporters. Dr. Cain turned to Axl. "Axl, could you go on this mission in replacement of Megazero?" Axl nodded and walked up to the third teleporter. Dr. Cain entered the coordinates. "Good luck, hunters."
"Come back safe guys." Megazero said. The hunters teleported off and Megazero walked by Dr. Cain and sat down and placed her hands over her stomach. Something inside her told her that they were all in danger. Womens intuition, you may call it but she had this feeling every time the guys went out without her. Dr. Cain turned on a monitor and saw what all three hunters did. Dr. Cain turned on two more and saw through the other hunters point of view. Megazero had forgotten for a second that in all of the hunters helmets were mini cameras to watch the mavericks and study their movements. Dr. Cain put on a headset and talked to them all. He handed Megazero a headset and said.
"You may help if you'd like." Megazero smiled and took the headset. Dr. Cain was very old and anything other than talking to the hunters and giving mission information might set off his weak heart .Alia walked in and Douglas followed.
"Dr. Cain, we found out who is behind this." Dr. Cain and Megazero looked at Douglas. "It's the same one from the attack a few months back. The one with the maverick Mukkia." Megazero stomach developed butterflies and she rose.
"My father.." Dr. Cain nodded.
"I'm afraid so…He's come back and he's stronger than ever." Megazero took off the headset and handed it to Douglas.
"I need to go to sector 367, Dr. Cain." Alia interrupted.
"Megazero, you can't. You'll put you and your baby in danger." Dr. Cain was talking to X and the others. Douglas put on the other headset and began helping.
"Alia, this is my father, he wants me not the others. He'll stop at nothing to get me back. I need to go." Alia shook her head.
"Let the others handle it." Megazero sat down and felt something deep inside tell her to go. Dr. Cain began his commands as the hunters entered the base..
After an hour or so, Megazero started to feel uneasy as commands were being yelled at and curse words filled th air.
Douglas took off his headset and said. "This is bad!" Alia and Megazero looked at Douglas. Alia asked.
"What's going on?"
"They're surrounded. Zero says that they keep on coming and coming. At this rate they're not going to win."
"What?" Alia looked at the screen. It was filled with mavericks. Alia looked over to Megazero.
"She's gone!" Dr. Cain turned to Alia and ordered.
"Don't let her leave!! She'll get killed." Alia ran out. Megazero ran into the elevator. She watched Alia run towards her.
"Stop Megazero!!" The doors closed and she pressed her floor number.
"I got to stop him." Alia hit the closed elevator door and turned to the stairs and ran up.
Megazero ran to the dorm and entered the dorm code. She ran into the room and opened the desk drawers. She pulled out her guns and changed.
Alia dragged herself up to the last set of steps. Finally, I thought I was going to die. Alia stepped out and looked towards the dorm. Megazero was walking out. "What are you doing?!?!" Megazero was dressed in her Maverick Hunter suit. The suit was flexible and she could see Megazeros pregnancy showing through her suit. She was carrying a backpack; it looked empty. Megazero looked at her and ran towards the elevator. Alia got to it first and opened it and closed the door behind her. "I'm not letting you in!" She pressed every number except the 1st floor so Megazero wouldn't be able to get downstairs. She heard Megazero say.
"I appreciate the concern but they need me. I'll take the other elevator." Alia forgot about the second elevator and yelled.
"No, Wait!!!! Don't go!!" No response.
Megazero ran down the hall as fast as she could and pressed the elevator button. The doors opened and she walked in and the doors closed. She pressed her destination and ran out as the doors opened. She entered the ammunition and weapons area. She entered her code and walked in. She picked up a few bombs, guns and other things. She ran out and went back into the elevator. She pressed another button and ran out to the garage and got in her car.
Zero slashed another Maverick and jumped back to dodge another attack. He looked at X and Axl and they were in the same situation. A few killings later, they all backed up. Zero and Axl and X jumped back in the middle, back to back.
"What happened?" X asked.
"I don't know but be on your guard." Zero scanned the mavericks.
"Who's that?" Axl pointed up. They looked up and a man in a lab coat was on the roof looking down at them from a huge hole. He jumped down and landed a few meters from them.
"Dr. Rued!" Zero said. "You're behind this?!?!" The doctor laughed.
"Rued?!! Isn't that Megazeros last name?" Axl asked. The doctor responded.
"Why yes it is! I am her father and I'm going to destroy you all for ruining my plans." Axl asked.
"What plans?" The doctor looked up and the hunters looked up as well. A figure was kneeled peering from the roof. X squinted to get a better look at the mans face.
"Vile?!?!" X cried out.
"What?!!" Zero snarled. "I thought he was dead."
Now how do you think Megazero survived the explosion? Vile saved my daughter, he's devoted to her and I actually like him for Megazero. Now.." He pointed at them. "Mavericks, go and kill them!!" All the mavericks jumped over the doctor and attacked the hunters. Vile dropped down and landed next to Dr. Rued. "You know the mavericks can't destroy them. Kill them one by one."
A.N: Well the peace in everyones lives is gone. And Megazero is back on the field, risking more than just her own life. Can she do anything about her friends and her father? The next chapter is but a click away!!!
