Chapter 11: The Final Battles, Part 1.5
"N-no!" said EX. "What's wrong Zero? Surprised to see me?" said Shadow. "The crew already decided to call me EX, you're a little late, bastard!" said EX with much struggle. Shadow had already stabbed EX through the very same hole X made, making it wider, and much more painful. "Ahahaha, I may be a bastard but that means you are too. Last time you defeated me without any struggle. It is true that it is difficult to surpass the shell of a Repli-human, but when it does, the pain is twice as strong as for a regular Reploid. Yet, such power, in such a tiny body, I must have it!" said Shadow. "Too late, I'm the only one with the Virus, you can't get another," said EX, beginning to cough, and wondering how Shadow knew all that. "Hehehe, I don't need another Virus, EX," said Shadow, "I only need the one you have inside of you!" "WHAT!" shouted EX, beginning to get the effects the virus, healing slowly. Shadow drew his Sword and pointed it straight into the air. "GET ABILITY PROGRAM!!!" he yelled. His sword began becoming blurry. Chunks of data sprang out from it, but wouldn't escape. He finally held it down. "Get ready," he said, and he quickly stabbed the sword into EX's heart. EX yelled a blood-curling yell, while Shadow held on to his sword, a grin from ear to ear.
Shadow took out the sword from EX's body, and he was encoded in a bright light, which soon blinded the room. Another yell, this time it was Shadow's. A yell with the same anger and pain like Zero's (Now known as EX) first scream. The light finally subsided. There, Shadow in his original armor was hovering in the air, sweating. His scarf was dangling about the air violently. It began to turn into a black color; until it got so dark it looked like a gap in space. Immediately they formed into huge dragon wings. His hair began to get longer. His sword became larger (like Cloud's Buster Sword from Final Fantasy 7). Another flash of light, and Shadow was completely wearing clothes, no armor. He had complete human skin, or Repli- Human skin. He now had the EX Virus. (A drawing of Shadow EX is held on my website, Jaggid1x.tripod.com, in the fanfiction section.) "Aha-Ahahaha! AHAHAHAHAHA!" laughed Shadow, a loud, mad laugh. "So this is it?" said Shadow, "No, I'm not Shadow anymore! I am now Shadow EX!!!" ("Ok, then! Sheesh!") "N-No fair, I-I already said s-something like that," said the gravely injured EX. "Quiet, fool! You don't deserve to have your own- Ah!" said Shadow, now known as Shadow EX (Not this again). Shadow EX was now holding his chest so tightly that hell itself would tremble. "I-It seems the new, now more powerful version of the EX Virus is too much for my previous body. I still haven't grown used to this power!" said Shadow EX, "Mark my words EX, after I get a nice long nap, I will come back to finish off what I should have done several chapters ago. You wait!" With that, Shadow EX teleported to whatever place he hangs out every day. While EX was left there, slowly losing conscience. He looked at Axl. "N-No, Axl. What have I done?" he said as he stared at the unmoving body of Axl. He then looked at X, also unmoving, and with two huge cuts in his sides. "X, I-I'm sorry, I failed you all," said the now dizzy EX. His sight began to become blurry (dizzy), and he blacked out.
"Damn you!!!" "Huh? Who's there?" said EX. EX was back in a dark room, in his dream. "It's me, W," said W, "How dare you loose the virus so easily? And how dare you allow your name to become crappy?" "It's not my fault! Get out of my mind!" said EX. "IT IS YOUR FAULT! No matter, at least the virus is still inside one of my own creations, even if I planned you to conquer the world, it doesn't matter if the torch was passed on to Shadow. I still get the credit," said W. "Torch? Credit? Conquer the world? What does it all mean?" asked EX. "Stop asking so many questions, fool! And get rid of that pathetic name, your real name is Zero EX," said the angry W. "Hell no! I don't have the EX Virus in me anymore, and I won't let the world be destroyed when it's my fault." "WHAT!" said the even angrier W. "I'll make sure Shadow doesn't destroy the world, if it takes all the energy inside of me to do it!" "Zero!" cried a voice, "Zero!" EX was back in a room in the Hunter's Base. Axl was standing in front of him.
"Zero, it's ok, the virus isn't in you anymore!" said Axl, though it still seemed Axl wasn't so sure. "Yeah, I know," said Zero, feeling a surge of shame going through him. "But, I still haven't heard of X from Pick. You think-" said Axl, trying hard to not think of it. "No! Don't say that! X won't die, I know it!" said Zero, until he looked at himself, forgetting about X, "What! Why do I still look like a human?" "Pick said since the EX virus still isn't destroyed, you will still have about the same power as when you still had it. I think he means we've got to find the virus and destroy it," said Axl. "Hmmm..Shadow," said Zero, when Pick entered the room. Seeming a bit down. "Axl, Zero, its about X," he started. "Wha-What happened to X? Is he ok?" said Zero. "X-X is d-" tried Pick again. "NO! He's dead isn't he? IT"S ALL YOUR FAULT, ZERO! IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT! If only you weren't such a dumass!" shouted Axl to Zero. "Huh? O-Oh no, X isn't dead! X is doing fine. You can go see him in my lab," Pick finally finished. "What?" yelled Axl, "All that to tell us X is ok? Why did you take so long?"
"Ugh, what? Huh?" Pick said, as he hid what seemed like a bottle in one of his pockets. "C'mon, Axl. Lets go see X," Zero said, getting a very high temptation to knock the shit out of Axl.
Zero and Axl entered Pick's lab, they realized how big it actually was, they found X in a corner, he was standing up. "X, what's going on?" said Zero, "You feeling ok?" "Axl, Zero! Get out of the way!" yelled X with a lot of struggle, and he shot a charged shot straight at Zero and Axl. "What the-?"
"N-no!" said EX. "What's wrong Zero? Surprised to see me?" said Shadow. "The crew already decided to call me EX, you're a little late, bastard!" said EX with much struggle.

"Zero, it's ok, the virus isn't in you anymore!" said Axl, though it still seemed Axl wasn't so sure. "Yeah, I know," said Zero, feeling a surge of shame going through him.
