Chapter 5

Showdown: Zero vs. Bass

Roll rushed into the base and told Dr. Light to take Bass and go fix him. Dr. Light began to recharge Bass' battery and patch the holes in him. Zero broke down the door and sliced Beat in half. Eddie the walking suitcase caught a buster blast in the face, and he too fell dead. Auto punched Zero in the stomach and was then cut down the middle and the two halves exploded. Dr. Light pressed a button and the reploid creating machine went underground and was replaced by a console. Zero walked up picked up Roll by her suit, Dr. Light tried to stop him, but only got a buster blast in the chest. "Now Roll my darling, you are to become my bride!" Zero said as he ripped the suit off of Roll, leaving her naked body standing in front of him. (I suppose that reploids are anatomically correct) Roll punched Zero in the face, she caught his skin and tore a large cut in his face. "You bitch!!" Zero said and he raised his Z Saber and cut Roll into several pieces.

Bass sat up, despite still having a low battery. Bass eyes glowed red, "You will regret that Maverick!" Bass said angrily. "Bring it on reploid!" Zero said, and waved his arm back towards himself. Bass dove off of the table he was on and hit Zero square on. Bass grabbed the Z Saber from Zero's hand and slashed Zero's buster off. Zero punched Bass in the face, but Bass wasn't even fazed. Bass sliced off Zero's other arm. "This is for Roll!!!!" Bass said, and shoved the Z Saber through Zero's face. Zero shut down. Bass looked down at himself, he began to glow. Dr. Light said, "Bass, you over used your battery, you're body is dying." "Is there anything that you can do?" Bass asked. "Yes, there is." Dr. Light sat Bass' body down on the table next to Zero's and reattached the arms to Zero. "This body should suit you, I fear that the Z Saber will be useless, you broke it. Also your memories of you being Bass, and your memories of Treble and Roll and everyone else, they will be gone." Bass nodded, "Can you put Roll's hard drive in another body so that we may meet in another life?" Bass asked. Dr. Light nodded, "I will put her brain in a body of this reploid named Iris, I will program in her brain that she loves you and you love her." Bass smiled and his battery finally ran out and his body died. Bass the reploid was no more.

Sigma had been reprogrammed by Wiley to be evil and hunt reploids rather than Mavericks. "Sigma, I will rebuild the Mavericks, I have enough for thousands of years on this disk!" Dr. Wiley giggled gleefully. Wiley's new creation was a hunter named Vile who walked up behind Wiley. Sigma grabbed Dr. Wiley and said, "You sniveling fool, I will rule over the mavericks, you humans are not worthy of such a prize. With that Sigma smashed Wiley's head in and grabbed the disk from Wiley's hand. "Come. We go to build my empire." Sigma said to Vile, and with that, they left.

Dr. Light had just finished transplanting the hard drives when a loud shaking occurred. There was a loud explosion and the base collapsed killing Dr. Light.

The base lay dormant for several years, but one day, Bass (Who is now Zero) woke up. Zero emerged from the base to find that Sigma had completely destroyed the world. Zero went on fighting Mavericks for several years.
