X: *Is at the gate to the hunter base*
Zero: *Comes riding into the base on a speeder bike*
X: Hey Zero!
Zero: *Get's off the bike* Hey X what's up?
Random hunters: *Swarm Zero*
R Hunter A: Zero you beat Sigma!
R Hunter B: Was the fight tough?
Zero: I'll tell you all about it later. *Grabs X and plows thru the crowd*
X: Geez you'd think that they'd be used to it by now. I mean we've destroyed Sigma what? Six times now? Then again 'destroyed' isn't really the right word is it?
Zero: Yeah. I don't get it either. Now what did you want?
X: Well I have a favor to ask you.
Zero: Sure anything.
X: Will you come in and talk to my class as a guest speaker?
Zero: So the rumors are true, you got stuck with Oni's class
X: Yeah it's true, so will you do it.
Zero: Sure, Sigma won't be back for a few days at least. I'd be happy to help you out.
X: Thanks Zero I really appreciate this.
Zero: No problem, what are partners for? Well I have a few closeup reports to file. *Starts to walk away* See you later great teacher X
X: Great teacher X?.....
-Later-
X: *Walks into the classroom* good morning class....
Ivy: *Rushes past him to look around in the hallway* Is he here yet? Where is he? *Grabs X by the collar* Where. Is. Zero?
X: Relax he'll be here shortly.
Ivy: WHEN!?
X: Shortly!
Ivy: But...
Arrow: Ivy will you PLEASE sit down
Ivy: *Pouts* Fine
X: Alright, today my Partner Zero is indeed coming in to speak to all of you. However he still has some uh....things to take care of....
-Back in Zero's office*
Zero: *Is filling out a three foot stack of paper work* Hmm let's see...supplies used, blah, blah ,blah, Maverick's Retired, blah, blah, Damage taken, blah, blah, blah, blah....
-Back in X's class-
Ivy: What kind of thing?
X: Believe me you don't wanna know
Arrow: *Gives X an odd look* But according to protocol he should be simply filling out a little paper work. How hard could that be?
-Cutscene to Zero's office-
Zero: *Finishes with the stack of papers and put them in a cart. Then turns around and grabs another stack from the huge mountain of papers behind him*
-Back in classroom-
X: Little paperwork? Is that what they're calling it now? Oh well while were waiting for our guest, can anyone tell me anything about Zero.
Ivy: *Stands up and get's sparkly eyes* He's tall, and handsome, and strong, and....
X: Anyone BESIDES Ivy?
Ivy: *Sits down and pouts*
Blade: He died
Arrow: Twice
Beam: I thought it was three
Arrow: No definitely two times
Beam: Really?
Blade: Yeah, once when he blew himself up and that one time when Sigma toasted him.
Ivy: Sigma couldn't 'toast' X much less zero
X: -_- Gee thanks
Blade: Oh yeah then what do you have to say about this! *Shows her a picture of zero after his fifth battle with sigma. (The one where all that's left of him is his upper body and even that has a big hole thru it)
Ivy: *Grabs picture* NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
X: How did you get that?
Blade: *Takes back the picture and mutters something about connections in hunter organization*
Beam: So how did he come back that time?
X: *Shrugs* Ask him when he get's here. All he'll tell me is that he was hiding to repair himself.
Arrow: But I heard that you had all memory of him erased after the encounter and your system refused to intake any data about him?
X: Yeah it did.
Arrow: Then how come in your next mission it stated that your mission was to 'find' Zero. If your system refused to admit he existed how could you go on a mission to find him?
X:.....Hey you feel that?
Blade: Yeah...felt like some kind of disturbance in the fabric of our reality
Ivy: What?
Blade: It's a plot hole...
All: Oh
Beam: Well that explains a lot.
Door: *Knock knock*
X: Ivy I think you should...greet...our guest
Ivy: Right. *Get's into a racers crouch in front of the door*
Blade: *Holds a checkered flag*
Arrow: On your mark,...get set....
X: *Opens door*
Blade: *Swishes flag*
Arrow: GO
Ivy: *Charges at the person behind the door and knocks them to the floor* Zero! I'm your biggest fan! I think your SO brave and strong and....
Signas: I'm flattered Miss but I'm not Zero.
Ivy: *Jumps up off him* Ehehe sorry ^^;
Signas: I take it your Ivy. Well just so you know Zero is on his way and should be here in five minutes. I just came by to check on X.
X: I'm fine sir...and uh sorry about that little incident. We were trying to...uh surprise Zero
Signas: Well far be it from me to spoil the fun, I'll just leave now. That was quite a nice tackle by the way miss Ivy. *Leaves*
-Five minutes later-
Zero: *Opens the door to X's class and is knocked back into the hallway by blur*
Ivy: ZEEEEERRRRRRO!
Zero: Err X...one of your students has attached themselves to me...
X: ^_^ Err yeah...surprise...
Zero: Uh huh thanks. *Looks down at Ivy* Miss do you think I could have me back now?
Ivy: *Jumps off and goes back into the classroom giggling*
X: *Walks with Zero back into the classroom* Class I'd like you to meet our guest speaker for the day, Commander Zero.
Zero: Hello everyone. *Gives a wave*
X: Does anyone have any questions for our guest?
Arrow: Who actually made you?
Zero: I...honestly don't know
Blade: How did you come back the second time you were killed.
Zero: ^^ I err...dunno that either. I sorta just woke up.
Beam: Who's stronger you or X
Arrow: BEAM!
X and Zero: *Look at each other*
X: I'm not sure
Zero: We'll have to find out sometime
X: Yeah I guess
Ivy: ^^ How do you get your hair like that.
Zero: . Um...I guess this is just the way it is
Ivy: *Sighs*
X: Any other questions?
Beam: Why don't you two duke it out now, the training center is open
X: Err...
Zero: Oh why not X, I'm stiff from all that paperwork and you have class time to burn
X: Well...ok
Ivy: Ten bucks on Zero
Beam: I'll take that bet, my moneys on X
Arrow: Hey now they'll be none of that... *Whispering* Put me down for ten on Zero, I have no respect for gun over swords.
X: *Oblivious to all of this* Well come on everyone *Walks out with Zero*
Zero: A bit of advice X you might want to look into more creative lessons if your looking for guest speakers already.
X: Leave me alone I'm not used to this.
Zero: I know, but look, if you need a day off to plan I'll fill in for you
X: Really? Thanks Zero I owe you one.
-They arrive with the class at the training room-
Zero: Well here goes nothing *Walks in with X and shut the door behind them*
Arrow: *Sits in the control chair and pulls up some screens* Are you two ready
X: Miss Arrow what are you doing
Arrow: Well SOMEONE has to control the training settings while you two are in there.
X: Oh right...well just put us on a basic setting and monitor
Arrow: *Fiddling with some hologram buttons* Check, your ready to go.
Beam: X is going to win I just know it
Ivy: *Whacks him over the head* No way Zero will crush X *Sparkly eyes*
Arrow: They're just sparring! *Looks at the screen* and right now they're just about even.
Blade: I wonder how this will turn out...
