Konnichiwa, minna (Good afternoon, everyone). I'm sure that it's a different case for you if you're reading this at a different time of the day. That's asides from the point, but yeah, I'd like to first off, thank Ciel-Network for allowing my fanfiction to be posted up on their lovely site and then lastly to you, the reader, for taking the time to read my second-rate fanfiction!

(I'll let you decide if it's second-rate or not. Either way, I'll only listen if you have something positive to say about my fanfiction. Other than that, I'll just ignore your insults and mark you as ignorant b4k4s.) ;

The pairing of this fanfiction is Zero x Ciel, just so you know from the start. I hope that you will enjoy reading it as you go along. The next chapters will come along in due time. Without further ado, here is the feature presentation!

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the RockMan Zero characters. All of them are rightfully owned and created by Capcom. However, if I did own them, I wouldn't be writing this right now, would I...? P

-( )- : Indicates Zero's thoughts.

Chapter: Prologue (Time's Scar)

Somewhere in an abandoned research facility, a lone monument in the middle of the facility stood out amongst all the other junk surrounding it. A familiar figure of a red maverick hunter dangled from wires and supported by a small platform. If perceived by others, none would know that it remained in a state of stasis, dreaming and contemplating the events that occurred to him in his past life.

-(Have you ever wondered what it is like, to kill the one closest to you without you having any choice but to do so? Have you ever thought about or even give the slightest acknowledgement to what the consequences would be, to not hold back and destroy him...? Or, in my case... Her...?)-

-(I just wish that I could go back in time and undo the past. It hurts all too much, that I'm quite sure of. Iris... Why did it have to end up this way? I'll never understand what fate thought when they pitted us against each other. I'll never understand why I was the one who had to finish you off and live with the pain for the rest of my life.)-

-(If only...)-

-Tap, Tap, Tap-

The nonchalant rhythmic beat of a pencil bounced up and down lightly against a table. A young woman with strawberry blonde colored hair gazed about blankly wondering how she could solve this problem of getting a better energy source to support the resistance base and everyone inside. Dropping the pencil into a small container, she spun her chair slightly to face a clear, floating screen with random numbers and letters rushing across it. Stretching out her arms forward, she then touched the clear screen and then activated her visor, which conveniently slid across her eyes horizontally.

Extending her arms forward to the matching clear keyboard below the monitor, she began to type in phrases that related to the matter at hand. Eventually, she began to move her finger along the monitor gently sorting out the floating screens with multiple findings to her request.

"Mouu...Too much information..." muttered the young girl.

After finally sorting out what she wanted, she saw that the most useful energy source would be "Energy Crystals", which could then be used in the many activities of the resistance base. She nodded gently and then saved the information, closing the program shortly thereafter. Gradually, the visor shielding the twin aqua-marine tinted oculars faded out and then left the young girl to contemplate on how she would go about to attain these "Energy Crystal" sources.

"To get some Energy Crystal resources, I need to search the abandoned factory seven miles north of the base. It's best that I take a group with me to back me up if things start to get a little ugly."

The young girl smiled to herself glad that she was able to find a resource that was more reliable and plentiful to help out the resistance base. She would make sure that in the end, all those hiding would never have to fear the tyranny of the one she tried to replicate, RockMan X.

Finally gathering up a small group for the trip to the abandoned research facility, the young girl felt that she was completely set. However, there was something amiss. What could it have been?

"Aiyaa! I almost forgot Ceres...!" exclaimed the young girl.

Rushing back to her quarters, she summoned forth her Cyber-Elf to accompany her to the facility. The Cyber-Elf seemed all too happy to help her master in any way possible. Floating alongside her, she went back to the group waiting at the entrance of the resistance base and then nodded to them. Their destination would be the abandoned research facility.

-(Even if it will take us months, perhaps years to finally be free from the grasp of X's tyranny, I'll see this through to the end no matter what. Nothing will get in my way. Father, Mother, I won't let you down.)-

-(I promise...)-

Little did the young girl know, she would soon meet with a certain red maverick hunter who would forever change her life...

WAHHHH!!! I know that was so lame for a prologue, but I needed to start somewhere. This storyline is altered so that it will turn out that Ciel and Zero will end up together. Again, I would like to thank Ciel-Network for giving me this opportunity to let my fanfiction be posted up! (Ciel-chan forever! )

If you have any comments or suggestions, let me know by e-mail or AIM. Actually, I would greatly appreciate if I got constructive criticism and positive remarks about my fanfiction from you, the reader, so let me know!
