Almost... halfway... there...

Chapter 14 - Round Two

Back at Hunter Base...

Zero: Hey, I'm back! GET OFF OF ME!

Everyone grabs his legs. Except for X, of course.

X: Oh hey Zero. What took you so long?

Zero: It was a really tough stage.

X: Uh-huh, I'm sure it was.

Zero: Oh, I need to adapt some weapons-

X quickly grabs and analyzes the DNA.

Magma Blade - Fires a wide-range blade from Saber.

Zero: X, my weapon... OH GOD! STOP SHOWING ME THAT! Work and love never mix!

X laughs at Zero.

Shoezan - Press Attack button while holding UP!
Hydroga - Press jump while holding UP!

Zero: Yes!

Zero high jumps and clings to the ceiling so no one may grope him.

Zero: Ah man, this is sweet! I feel like hanging out somewhere... Inami Temple!

X: ...Isn't anyone going to grab me?

Tumbleweeds pass by.

X: How did tumbleweeds get in the base? Reminds me of those fireballs I found in the Weapon Center. I didn't finish that, did I?

At the Weapon Center, Illumina appears in the background.

X: Oh right, you again. That's why I hated this place. But now...

X uses the Magma Blade on Illumina's power cables. Illumina is quickly destroyed.

X: I have COOL WEAPONS! Oh yeah!

X reaches the shutter.

WARNING!

A tube-like robot appears.

IM: I am Infinity Mijinion!

X: ...What animal are you?

IM: Huh?

X: Every Maverick I've ever fought has been based on an animal or a plant. But you're... a tube.

IM: I'm a Mijinion.

X: ...OK. I'll assume you're a teddy bear, Infinity Teddy Bear... How did you clone yourself 50 times? Ahh! Bubbles!

X is surrounded by bubbles and quickly slashes them. IM shoots him with several Ray Arrows.

X: Teddy Bears can't do that!

IM: I told you, I'm a Mijinion!

X: OK, Mr. Mijinion. Have some of this!

X injects IM with a powerful anti-virus.

IM: What?

X: Hey, Dr. Light gave me the world's greatest anti-virus program! It even survived the Sigma Virus. And erased my memories of Zero. No wait! Wrong MMX5 alternate ending.

IM: NOOOO!!!

IM is deleted. The anti-virus program is actually a data eating virus!

X: Ew... Why did Dr. Light give me that? Well, nice knowing ya, Teddy.

(X shuts his eyes and ponders a bit.)

X: Mustn't look at remains... But can't resist...

X takes a glance at IM's remnants and barfs.
