(X and Zero are training at the Maverick Hunter Headquarters. X is already
done and he waits for Zero to finish. As he's waiting, Life Savor comes and
talks to X privately, and he tells him something about Zero.)
Life Savor: X, Zero's gonna die.
(Life Savor turns and starts to walk away.)
X: (Sarcastically) What? Oh that's real nice, and how are you doing!
(Life Savor turns back around, and comes back smiling.)
Life Savor: I'm fine, how are you doing?
X: Oh, don't you take that smiley tone with me, why did you say that?
Life Savor: Well it's the truth.
X: Well you don't have to tell it as it is!
Life Savor: He's gonna die, because he has the Sigma Virus, but since it's different, we're calling it the Zero Virus.
X: Well, how could it turn into the Zero Virus?
Life Savor: Partly since he used to be a Maverick, but also because of all the drinking.
X: Ah, I see.
Life Savor: Well if you don't tell him now and get him treated in time, then there's a possible chance that Zero can die.
X: Well if Zero dies, then I'll not only lose my partner, I'll lose my best friend.
Life Savor: Well if it means that much to you then all I'm saying is that we could go down to the pound, and buy you a new partner.
X: Oh, well that's just mean, Zero's not a dog.
Life Savor: You're right, dogs are better. But anyway X, you're his friend, so you have to tell him and get him treated now, or else he'll die. And then the consequences will be dire...
X: Go on.
Life Savor: That's it. But if you don't do anything in time, then there's a strong chance that he'll die.
(Zero finishes his training, and he comes over to X, and Life Savor. For some reason, Zero can never remember Life Savor's name and it bugs the hell outta him.)
Zero: Hey X, hey Light Saber.
(Life Savor grunts, and he walks away.)
X: Gees, what's with the attitude?
Zero: Hm, nice guy. Anyway X, what did he want?
(X starts to cry, and one of the music songs from MegaMan X5 starts to play in the background.)
Zero: X what's wrong? Ah don't tell me that you're still upset about that time when I ate the whole jar of mayonnaise when you were making a sandwich.
(Once, when X was making a sandwich, he wondered where the mayonnaise was. Zero was hiding while eating it, and he was using his hand to eat it instead of a knife or something. Then later on when X found out, then he went up to Zero with the empty jar, and started swirling it around with a knife in it. Zero started to smile, embarrassed, but X started crying, because Zero didn't know how hungry X was, and that he hadn't eaten all day.)
X: No Zero.
Zero: Oh that's good, I was getting scared there for a minute.
X: (Crying) Zero I, I, I'm sorry!
Zero: (Standing proudly) Why X, why are you sorry?
X: I'm sorry that...that you're gonna die!
Zero: (Shocked) I'm gonna die?
X: No wait Zero...
Zero: Aw, no wonder nobody came to my birthday party.
X: (Confused) Zero it's your birthday?
Zero: It was my birthday? (Pulls out a card) Oh, no wonder Neon Tiger sent me this card.
X: Zero, what does your birthday have to do with you dying?
Zero: I meant to say: aw, no wonder Life Savor was giving me that one look, like the one he's doing right now.
(Zero points behind X, and they see Life Savor looking at Zero from behind a window giving him the look. He sees them looking so he hides quickly. Zero shivers like a baby.)
X: Zero, we have to take you to the doctor, so that he could work on your body.
Zero: Ah, no! We're not doing that again.
X: But, if we don't then the consequences will be dire.
Zero: Go on.
X: That's it. I guess Life Savor was right, dogs are better.
Zero: Dogs? Better than what? What are you talking about X?
X: Never mind.
Zero: Well on the way, I'm gonna get a beer, I'm thirsty.
X: Oh no, no more beer for you.
Zero: Aw!
(X and Zero leave the Maverick Hunter Headquarters, and as they walk past a bar, then Neon Tiger gets thrown outside in front of them.)
Bar Tender: Hey get outta here, this isn't a gay bar!
Neon Tiger: But I'm not gay!
(As the door closes, then Neon Tiger says to himself.)
Neon Tiger: Oh, how did they know?
X: Hey Zero, look who it is. Zero? Zero... Darn it Zero!
(Zero was inside the bar getting drunk and talking to other drunken hicks.)
Zero: And so I said, stay away from my wife! And I'm not even married.
(The ones listening start to laugh, as X walks in.)
Bar Tender: Hey Zero is that your wife?
(The drunken hicks begin to catcall.)
Drunken Hicks: Oohh!
Zero: What, my wife? Oh no that's just X.
(Neon Tiger pokes his head in through the doorway.)
Neon Tiger: So now is this a gay bar?
(Nobody answers, he just narrowly pulls his head back out as flying beer bottles are hurled at him. They shatter against the wall.)
X: Zero, I told you that you couldn't have a beer, so let's go!
(X grabs Zero, and they both go outside, where Neon Tiger still was.)
Neon Tiger: Oh hey Zero!
Zero: Aw no, what do you want?
Neon Tiger: Hey, do you...
(Before he could finish, X and Zero take off running, and he runs after them.)
Neon Tiger: Hey I just wanted to know if you guys knew where another bar was.
(But they didn't hear. X and Zero finally make it to the doctor's office, and Gate was Zero's doctor. Zero went inside the office, and sat down on the sink.)
X: Zero, get off of there.
Zero: Wow, look at those ice cream sticks, boy Gate must really like ice cream.
X: That's not ice cream Zero.
Zero: Then what is it?
X: Well.. It's not ice cream, I'll tell ya that.
Zero: Aw, I want ice cream!
Gate: You can get ice cream when you're done.
(Zero screams, and then realizes that Gate came in.)
Zero: Oh Gate, it's just you. I thought that it was someone important.
X: What, do you mean like Sigma?
Zero: Yea.
Gate: (To himself) Oh no not this again. (To them) So what can I do for you gentlemen?
Zero: Oh-ho-hoh, we're not gentlemen, we're...
Gate: Oh please be serious for once.
Zero: Sorry.
X: Anyway, Zero's gonna die, and we need you to help him.
Zero: (Shocked) I'm gonna die!
X: Zero you already know that. Anyway can we get started now?
Gate: Alright then follow me.
(Gate takes X to a room and sits him down. In the room X could see a glass wall in front of him, and he saw an operation room down in front of him. Gate leads Zero down there, and he lays on a table.)
X: (To himself) Oh no, he's gonna kill Zero!
Zero: Hi X!
X: What?
Gate: Zero, he can't hear you.
Zero: Oh ok. (He yells to X) Hey X, if you love Neon Tiger, then say 'what'!
X: What?
Zero: Heh he.
Gate: Oh stop that, we need to get to work already.
Zero: Oh ok, I'm sorry.
(Gate gets to work on Zero. First he puts Zero to sleep like a dog.)
X: Yup, going back to the dogs again are we..
(What? I mean, then Gate starts to cut open Zero's chest, and he starts vacuuming out the cholesterol from Zero's heart veins. Gate wonders why Zero had so much cholesterol in his heart veins, but he continues his work.)
X: Hm, I wonder what happens to all that cholesterol.
(X looks at the tube that follows out through the wall. The trail leads through the hospital, and somewhere else in another room, a skinny guy is trying to get fat. He starts to spread the cholesterol on crackers with a knife.)
Skinny Guy: You're sure that this is going to work right?
(The doctor quickly nods his head three times, in a comical fashion. Back in the other room, Gate is done vacuuming out all the cholesterol. Then he closes Zero up and waits for him to wake up.)
Gate: So Zero how do you feel?
Zero: I had the most wonderful dream. I was in candy land!
Gate: Isn't that a board game?
Zero: Hey don't ruin my fantasies. Some of us prefer the illusion to despair.
X: Yea Zero! You're alright!
Zero: Meh, why wouldn't I be?
X: Um, Gate, what does vacuuming out cholesterol out of Zero's veins, have to do with him dying?
Gate: I dunno I just do, call it intuition. Well you can never be too sure anyway. Besides, now Zero won't get the urge to drink that much anymore.
Zero: Alright. Hey, whose up for a beer?
Gate: Of course then I could be wrong..
X: Well is there anything else you have to do?
Gate: No, I give up.
X: Oh, well that's comforting!
Gate: No X, I'm done, so you can go.
Zero: Ah, X, you promised that you'd get me some ice cream.
X: Ok Zero, you earned it.
Zero: Haha Gate, I get ice cream and you don't! Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah.
Gate: I can get ice cream whenever I want, but I don't like it.
Zero: Oh well, rub it in my face why don't ya!
Gate: Oh ok then let's do it.
(Gate smiles and grabs one of the ice cream sticks and rubs it on Zero. It shatters into splinters as he laughs and waves his arms until Gate stops.)
Zero: I was just playing, god.
X: Let's go.
Gate: That's all that I wanted to hear X.
Zero: Wow X everyone's stealing your lines.
X: Yea I should put a copyright on them and sue them.
Zero: Yea, then we can have lots of ice cream money!
X: Don't you mean, beer money?
Zero: Oh yea!
X: Oh joy.
Gate: You probably should put a patent on that line too.
(X and Zero leave without paying Gate, because since they're Maverick Hunters, they get everything done for free. When they get outside, then Neon Tiger was waiting for them.)
Neon Tiger: Oh there you guys are, I lost you.
Zero: Oh no, not another bad thing to happen to me! Save me X!
Neon Tiger: Hey do you guys know where another bar is? I got kicked out of the other one.
X: Oh it's just down the road over there.
(X points down the road, and the bar is over there.)
Neon Tiger: Oh, I got kicked out of that one too.
X: Well that's the only other one.
Neon Tiger: Well thanks anyway.
(Neon Tiger walks away, and X and Zero are standing there both in shock.)
Zero: Uh, thanks X, but why didn't he chase us again, and say that he loves me?
X: I don't know, but I guess it's just been a weird day for you Zero.
Zero: Yea I guess so, but never let it happen again.
X: Oh, so I guess that you like it when Neon Tiger acts gay, and chases you, and ruins your life.
Zero: Shut up X! Come on, let's go show Life Savor that I'm still alive.
X: Yea I'll really get a kick out of that, or I'll he'll just kick you.
Zero: Hey!
(They pause for a second, and then they start to laugh.)
X & Zero: Haha!
(X and Zero go back to the Maverick Hunter Headquarters, and even though Zero's still alive, Life Savor still gives him the same look he always does and was tempted to kick him, like a dog.)
X: Gees, would you stop that already? Zero's not a dog!
(Ok, I'm sorry.)
Life Savor: X, Zero's gonna die.
(Life Savor turns and starts to walk away.)
X: (Sarcastically) What? Oh that's real nice, and how are you doing!

Life Savor: You're right, dogs are better. But anyway X, you're his friend, so you have to tell him and get him treated now, or else he'll die. And then the consequences will be dire...
