Chapter 7: Zero EX
"No! I can't! NO!" "What was that?" said X. "I-it sounded like Zero!" said Pick a bit shocked and feeling a bit nervous. He knew the Hunter base wasn't always the safest place in the world, and he's heard of other scientists dying here before. "I think maybe you guys should go ahead," he said as he quickly looked behind him, spraining his neck. "Yeah, lets go," said Axl, a bit curious about Pick. They walked right in front of Zero's door, when suddenly fell silence, an eerie silence. A silence you might face while watching a scary movie at a theater. The silence only made the scientist more nervous. Even X and Axl where beginning to feel a bit anxious. "Hmm weird," said X. As he said this, the titanium alloy door opened with a crash, sending both the Reploids down to the ground. They got up quickly, weapons ready. They could tell the room was dark. The dust from the crash made them nervous, they couldn't see the troublemaker, but the troublemaker could probably see them. After a short while the dust finally was beginning to fade. As they looked hard into the room they could see a figure. It was Zero, kneeling on the ground holding his hand, which was holding the Buster gun. "Go! Leave! Save yourselves! NOW!" yelled Zero. Zero was holding his arm with a force strong enough to break a building, or in this case, a base for Maverick Hunters. The base was shaking, like an earthquake, an earthquake that was meant only to shake someplace up. Zero's face was one filled with signs of anger, signs of fury. It seemed like he was trying to break his own hand off. "Zero! We're.we're trying to help you!" shouted X at Zero. "Help me?! If you're going to help me, kill me! Kill me now! Before.before," shouted Zero in frustration, and what seemed like struggle. "What?" shouted Axl, not believing what he heard. But it was too late, at that moment Zero began to yell, a harsh, torturing yell. Just like before, an odd light appeared from Zero, and it illuminated the whole base. "The base is under attack!" yelled Alia through the intercom, "The base is under attack! All Hunters immediately head to the Teleport Room!" Finally, the light began to fade, and X and Axl were still staring at the door. Zero's yells finally subsided, and the odd light was finally gone. "What happened," said Pick. At that moment: (SLASH). "Ahhh!" yelled both X and Axl. Right in front of them, Zero, Saber drawn. Zero stood straight, staring at the Reploids, admiring the damage he just caused them. X looked at the where the pain was located and found a deep scar, just below the chest. "Hahaha, weaklings," said Zero as he dashed off into a part of the Hunter Base.
"We have to find Zero," said X through his scar, "We can't let him hurt anybody else." "Quickly, get to the laboratory, I'll have the system ready to fix you," said Pick, sweat beginning to show on his face. "Hurry, before we meet up with Zero again." "You crazy?" said X, "We'll heal along the way, to finding Zero." "And how are you going to stop Zero, X? You think you can just hit him a few times and he'll return to normal?" said Pick, "We need to study further on what is happening to Zero, and then take it from there." "But we can contain him," said Axl, entering the discussion. "You saw how strong he is, the base shook when he was trying to back off whatever was happening to him," said Pick very impatiently. "He's right, we need another tactic," said X, finally ending the argument. "While you heal in the laboratory, I'll study more on the cells in Zero's body, our only clue to stopping him," said Pick getting into a run to the labs, while X and Axl tried to keep up with him.
"Hahahahahahahahaaa!" laughed a familiar voice. "What? Who is that?" said X. Now it was his turn to enter the darkness. But he couldn't make out the figure laughing. "Fools! Soon, it will be my turn to rule the world, and finish off all humans! Ahahahaha!" "NO! Zero? Zero, is that you!" shouted X out desperately. But the voice just kept on laughing, ignoring X. "What are you doing?" "That is none of your business! Ahahaha! Get ready X! It all ends soon."
"No! I can't! NO!" "What was that?" said X. "I-it sounded like Zero!" said Pick a bit shocked and feeling a bit nervous.
