===========================================================================
*Zero pulled his blaster arm up, aiming it straight for Pharaohman, but Megaman places his hand on the cannon arm and slowly lowers his aim, just looking from one to the next*
Zero: X, are you crazy? What are you doing?
X: Don't worry Zero, I can take care of it, I just hope I know what I'm doing.
*Zero stops charging his blaster arm and just looks at X, shaking his head some, then looking back to the 3 Robot Masters across from them*
Zero: I sure hope you know what you're getting yourself into X.
X: Nevermind that. Get Roll out of here and a safe distance, because if this doesn't work... and I get destroyed... *sighs*... I want the both of you to be safe...
Zero: X, you better get it right..
*Zero runs off, Roll already part way out because she didn't want to get captured in the middle of this. They made their way back to the hover car at the entrance to the dome and started back towards HQ, while Megaman stayed with the 3 Robot Masters in front of him*
X: *Rambling to himself* Wait a minute... I remember which weapons would work best against which Robot... let's see... Dark Hold would work on Pharaohman, Soul Body for Ringman, and hmm... Skullman... I think I need to use... Silk Shot... yes... those weapons will work perfectly...
*Ringman and Skullman move to Megaman's sides, preparing to do a triple attack, he looks around to the three of them, chuckling slightly*
Ringman: What's so funny when you're about to get fried Megaman?
Skullman: Yeah, how can you laugh, when we're kicking you so hard you're feeling it in the past?
Pharaohman: Forget the obnoxious laughter... let's just finish him off and get back to what we had to do...
*As Ringman and Skullman fire their weapons, X jumps backwards. When he lands, he equips Dark Hold and fires a round at Pharaohman, dropping him to the ground immediately*
Pharaohman: *shocked* What was that? How? I thought we were unable to be hurt by his weapons?
*Pharaohman looks back and forth to Ringman and Skullman, who are looking to eachother, slightly frightened by the turn of events. Due to their slight setback, Megaman quickly equips Silk Shot and fires at Skullman, knocking him back to a far wall under the mantle where Zero was being held*
Ringman: Not this time Megaman.
*Ringman jumps to the side and fires a ring at Megaman... before it can hit his blaster arm, he uses his other arm and blocks it. Megaman laughs a bit as he stands up and readies Soul Body... aiming directly for Ringman. Ringman tries to jump away, but Megaman fires ahead of him and with the strong blast, he flies to the opposite end of the room*
X: Now what was fun! I wasn't sure it was gonna work, but I'm glad it did... and now your new boss won't be so happy with you. I'm leaving now... if any of you even dare to attack me or my friends again, you will be gone like that... now get out of here...
*Megaman starts to leave as they run out a back door to the 'tomb' that they were in... he laughs as he gets back outside the dome, and as he starts to walk back from the dome, he calls up Roll and Zero on the communicator.*
X: Zero, do you hear me? I did it, I got rid of them... Well, I didn't kill them, I just made sure they left us alone... if not, I know what to do now... when I get back to HQ, or if someone comes to pick me up, we can sort out all of this, and I can figure out which weapon to use against who. Anyway, seeya in a while..
*Megaman stops the transmission and makes his way back to HQ, only to sit back and relax for a while so his energy could recharge. When he finally arrives back at HQ he slowly makes his way back to the main control room where everyone was, Zero, Roll, and Alia. He looked around, making sure everyone was there, before he made his presence known.*
X: Everyone... *Waits for everyone to face him, some startled, other's knowing he was quick, turning to face him* ... I've come to a conclusion... These old rivals of mine, are defeated by newer equivalents of the older weapons. So if I could have Roll help me remember all the old weapons used against the others, and what they did... I could easily have everyone sort them out for what I needed... Well, if anyone wants to help, or thinks they can help in other ways... meet me here tomorrow, around 8 o'clock... we'll get this done... and be ready for anything... until tomorrow everyone!
*Megaman turns around and leaves the room, sighing some because it was so hard for him to do all this on his own... he may have been the most powerful Reploid, but he was always one to use help to get things done quicker, especially if those who helped him were his friends. He went back to his room and slid in, removing his armor and setting it down beside his bed as he slid onto it, just resting there, the bottom half of his armor still on, finding no reason to drop that part... he laid there for a while before Roll knocked on his door and entered slowly*
Roll: Mega... do you know what you're doing? Are you sure you can get all this done, and deal with whoever, or whatever is working with these Reploids... or whatever they are? *she walks over to his bed and sits on the end of it, just thinking of what happened today, and how hard it was for him, but at the same time, not hard at all* I hope we can figure it out... because I don't want to lose you...
X: I don't know exactly what I'm doing Roll... but I'll tell you one thing... I know I can do it with people like you, Zero, and Alia backing me up... we can do it together. We'll just have to figure out how to adjust Zero so that he'll have the same advantage against the enemies we're facing now. *he sighs and closes his eyes lightly* Well, I guess I'll see you in the morning... I need some sleep, and time to think over what I should do next, how I should do it as well.... Anyway... night Roll...
Roll: Night Mega...
*Rolls gets up and leans over him, giving him a kiss on the lips lightly before she walks off... she then leaves, closing the door behind her so that X can sleep. X slowly drifts into a fulfilling sleep, although, his dreams showing some different images, the past, his weapons, and any kind of connection that he could see between all of them, any difference between them and the originals, any signs on them as to who they were aligned with. He slept calmly after he thought of those, just drifting, slowly, through the night*
===========================================================================
Will X deliver the same victory as he had in the past? Will he be able to figure out who the enemies he has faced work for? You may find out next chapter... but until then, keep looking on for what is to come.
