Megaman Axl.

Chapter 7. – Dynamo's true power.

And the unimaginable happened. Dr, Weil turned out to be the real villain behind the play. Everything succeeded according to his plans. He kept Sigma's neural unit alive to get information about the untold prophecies, used X's memory back-up to find the coordinates of Zero's resting place, take Zero's Original body for examination in creating the ultimate Reploid, using the Mother Elf create by the Hunters to modify her into the Dark Elf and use her to gain control of Reploids around the world to bring mankind to his knees and rule the world.

Pretty much like it, Dr. Weil challenges X and Axl. After discovering the place where the transmission came, an underwater facility in the Pacific Ocean, X and Axl set into the first act of the final play of Dr. Weil's plan.

X and Axl left quickly in a submarine headed for the underwater facility. The sky was getting dark, and with the darkness, the waterscape turned dark too. The Submarine turned its lights on revealing the beautiful civilization of marine creatures, all big and small.

After a few minutes, the facility was visible through the main scope. Hidden all this time, and with the possibility that Dr. Weil might be inside.

X: There it is.

Axl: We're going to kick his ass and make him pay for what he has done.

X: Pilot, drop us off nearby the entrance.

Pilot: Yes sir.

Meanwhile, in a dark room inside the facility, Dynamo entered followed by Dr, Weil on the opposite side of the room.

Dynamo: I'm bored. Wanna play Battleship?

Dr. Weil: Why not? I feel like it.

Both of them walked forward, the breeze playing with Dynamo's hair and with Dr. Weil's black coat. Both of them stood on their individual terminals as a big holographic screen popped up. Then Dr. Weil started the first move.

Dr. Weil: Let's see… B6!

Dr. Weil pressed a button… and back with the hunters…

Pilot: Sir! Incoming attack!

X: What?

Suddenly, an explosion came from under the seafloor almost touching the ship.

Axl: They know we're coming!

X: We have no choice but to drop off here!

Back with our villains…

Dr. Weil: Damn. Missed it.

Dynamo: I'll take care of it, thank you. A7! POW!

Another explosion came, this time a little closer to the ship.

Pilot: Sir! We cannot stay here much longer!

Axl: Let's do it!

X: All right! We're jumping off!

The air lock door opened letting the water come in, and X and Axl jumped off the submarine.

Dr. Weil: C2!

Then, the explosion reached the submarine taking it with it. The Submarine was reduced to scrap metal as the explosion bubbles went up to the surface.

X: Poor pilot.

Axl: We should go fast before that happens to us too!

X: Right!

Both of them ran as fast as they could trying to reach the entrance of the facility.

Dynamo: Guess what? Here's a BONUS!

Suddenly, a group of marine Mavericks came from under the seafloor. They surrounded X and Axl in some kind of defensive formation. Both of them fired their weapons vigorously trying to dodge the incoming attacks.

Dr. Weil: Bite this! G4!

X and Axl heard the incoming explosion and used their dashing to get away from the site fast. The explosion engulfed the Maverick group dissolving them to dust.

Dynamo: What was that for?

Dr. Weil: Darn it… missed them…

Dynamo: And we're out of bombs…

Dr. Weil: And I have to go… Entertain yourself with them if you want.

Dynamo: Yeah! A physical activity is way better than this!

Dr. Weil left the room, leaving Dynamo ready to fight against the Hunters. X and Axl ran through the halls of the facility. Those seemed long and cold, but they reflected that the facility was used for something else… Rocket fuel? Space pods?

X and Axl arrived to a big dark room… it seemed like the room where they were…

X: Is this it?

Axl: Weil! Wherever you are, come right now!

Dynamo: Sorry. But the old man had to go.

X: Where are you?

A single spotlight turned on spotting Dynamo on to of the big computer console. With a swift acrobatic move, he leaped off and landed on his feet like a ninja. He stood up waving his hair with his right hand looking at the hunters.

Dynamo: But allow me to entertain you on his behalf.

Dynamo drew his red saber and got his buster ready for a battle.

X: Looks like he's serious.

Axl: Are you kidding me?

X: He's not the Dynamo we have fought before… he has collected many DNA souls… he's much stronger now… Stay on guard Axl!

Axl: Screw him!

X: Axl! wait!

Axl drew his guns opening a heavy firepower from the mouths of the twin brothers on his hands. Dynamo moved his saber at a blinding speed deflecting every shot with ease.

Dynamo: Is that all you got boy?

Dynamo waved his Saber letting go of it in a boomerang action.

X: Jump!

Axl and X jumped in a quick springing action… Dynamo looked at them waving his right hand upwards, and the saber went upwards too.

Axl: Gaia Shield!

Axl placed his right gun in front of him creating a stone shield, but it wasn't enough to stop the saber. It kept spinning on the shield, and then the force was so great that it tossed Axl away.

X: Axl!

X prepared himself in a position to download Armor data.

X: Blade Armor! Download!

With a flash of light, X's armor changed into the Blade Armor, the armor of the swordsman. X drew the special blade for the Blade armor and sprung towards Dynamo. Dynamo got his saber back in time to block the attack. The pressure was so strong that there was a festival of lights coming from the blades.

Dynamo: So, still with the touch X.

X: But enough to defeat you!

Axl: Surprise…

Dynamo: What the?

X: Now Axl!

X released himself from the Blade clash, causing Dynamo to lose balance. Axl lifted the heavy weapon he had on his shoulder and fired.

Axl: G-Shockwave!

The little impact expanded into a big shockwave dealing critical damage. Dynamo was doing bad…

After the impact, Dynamo stopped fighting, and tried to keep balance with his weakness…

X: You know you can't win Dynamo. Let's go Axl.

Axl: We have to catch Weil before he escapes.

Dynamo: Wait!

X and Axl turned to Dynamo… he was very weak, but he was still standing… with a little of balance issues…

Dynamo: I try my best, and still… everyone treats me like a fool… like a jester for fun… This is not fair! I NEED POWER!

Axl: X!

X: Is the Dark Elf!

The Dark Elf, the one who was the Mother Elf, came upon Dynamo's plea for power…

Dynamo: You… you give power… right? THEN GIVE ME POWER! I NEED IT NOW!

The Dark Elf stood in her position as she radiated the same light as before… this time hitting Dynamo with Darkness… A black sphere appeared covering Dynamo… the only thing visible of him was his dark silhouette curled into a ball… then pain… screams… and suffering… twitching and squirming… with crushing sounds like bones crushing… suddenly, four individual wings came. Each one followed by a painful scream… his extremities ripped apart revealing new ones and he was lifted in the air… his hair grew so long that it waved each second… after that, the sphere was gone… and the new demonic version of Dynamo was revealed… still breathing deeply from the pain… his eyes were blood red and his voice sounded like a demon…

Dynamo: And now… I WILL DESTROY YOU!

X: Dynamo… What have you done to yourself to reach power…

Axl: This is bad…

X: We have to put an end to his suffering…

Axl: This takes priority…

Dynamo: AAAAARRRGHHHH!

Dynamo waved his demonic hand releasing a sudden flow of energy beams. X barely dodged the attack, but the territory turned into a living hell…

Axl: Are you okay X?

X: Barely… he really became a monster…

Axl: Any ideas?

X: He became that by the powers of the Dark Elf… if I could concentrate my powers into my Buster to fire a powerful anti-virus shot…

Axl: Got it! I'll handle him while you prepare the attack!

Axl leaped towards Dynamo's reach. He drew his guns as he fired running in circles around Dynamo.

Axl: Hey you freak! I'm here!

Dynamo: HOW DARE YOU?

Dynamo stretched his demonic arms as he smashed the ground closer to Axl trying to squash him. Axl ran as fast as he could to avoid the blows. X was still charging his buster shot into a special shot to destroy Dynamo.

Dynamo curled his right fist and tried to smash Axl with it, but Axl jumped in a quick acrobatic move as he fired to the fist. His other fist trapped Axl. Dynamo was trying to crush Axl, but his right arm was free, so he took his gun and fired at Dynamo's wrist setting himself free from the pain.

Dynamo's eyes were wide open, so Axl took a clear shot and fired as the two blood red eyes. Dynamo suddenly squirmed in pain because he was blind…

Dynamo: GWAAARGH!

Axl: Now X!

X relaxed his arm as he closed his eyes… on the floor around him, an energy circle sprouted… light blue emanating a warm energy. X lifted his buster slowly as a mark appeared in front if him targeting Dynamo. X took a deep breath…

X: Rest in peace Dynamo… ANTI-VIRUS BUSTER!

X fired a thin blue energy beam, which hit and surrounded Dynamo in a ray if light… his wings were disintegrating slowly as he recovered a normal shape. The beam of light imploded leaving Dynamo's normal body lying on the ground, weak and dying. X and Axl rushed to him…

Dynamo: I… Was so foolish… always… Why can't I defeat you? Why?

X: Because you play with forces you don't know.

Axl: If you never did that in the first place, nothing of this would have happened.

Dynamo: I see… I felt… a warm light… never… felt it… before… I see… I was wrong… please accept my apologies…

X: Apology accepted. You know, I somehow admired you Dynamo… you never gave up… if you ever gave the chance, you would have become a great hunter…

Dynamo: But is too late for that…… isn't it?

Axl: No! Just hang on and Lifesaver will fix you up! Then you can atone for your mistakes!

X: Axl's right! There is no need for anyone else to die!

Dynamo: I just understand… death is a part of life… like love… I started doing this… when I loved a human…

Axl: ………?

Dynamo: Anyways… it is time for me… to go… please stop Dr. Weil… promise?

X: … Promise…

Dynamo: Thank you… again… and… good… bye…

X: Dynamo!

Axl: He's gone…

X: Why… why does everyone has to die?

Axl: X… he couldn't just… let it go…

X: ……… Uh? What is this reading?

Axl: What? It's coming from the Dark Elf!

The Dark Elf descended… and somehow shook herself… from the cover of darkness… a warm bright light came… it was…

X: Mother Elf?

Axl: What's going on here?

The Mother Elf shook herself releasing some kind of dust… the shinny dust accumulated over Dynamo's body and if shone covering his whole body. The bright light turned into a small body… small like a light bulb… and it floated over the air…

Axl: This is…

X: ……… A cyber elf…

Cyber Elf Dynamo flew high heading out…

X: How is this possible?

Axl: Maybe one of the mysteries of the Mother Elf…

Suddenly, the coat of darkness covered her again… and she flew away…

Axl: How come?

X: She is still fighting against her own darkness… but the darkness is stronger than her… but she still tries, never gives up…

Axl: X…

X: We should keep moving. Dr Weil must not be far.

Leaving the room, X and Axl ran heading to the rest of the halls heading for a big room… there were some lights on… and there were some space rockets and shuttle inside…

Axl: What is this place?

X: Maybe this facility was used for space exploration…

Dr. Weil: Well spotted my friend!

Axl: X! Over there!

Axl spotted a space shuttle warming up for lift off.

X: Dr. Weil!

Dr. Weil: I see you managed to defeat Dynamo. Have you seen what is my dear Dark Elf capable of?

X: You just doomed Dynamo in his quest for power!

Dr. Weil: And I gave him power, didn't I?

Axl: Why you?

Dr. Weil: Well, I better hurry to my little outer space spot. Omega and the Dark Elf are waiting for me to start our beloved plan. So if you excuse me.

Weil pressed a few button on his cockpit console igniting the main engines…

Axl: He's getting away!

X: Damn it!

The small shuttle lifted off heading to the sky… and after the shuttle went out the facility, explosions around the halls.

X: He activated the self-destruct sequence of this place!

Axl: Let's get out of here!

X and Axl ran through the collapsing halls. They made it out in time to be picked up by a rescue ship. The underwater facility exploded into pieces with a swift blow.

Back to HQ, X and Axl were with the others discussing about what to do next.

X: And he said he went into outer space.

Alia: Outer space?

Douglas: That might explain it. He may get a better reception for controlling the Reploids worldwide.

Signas: Alia, any luck looking for where did he go?

Alia: I tracked the shuttle where he left. It goes into coordinates X0024 Y1837 Z4960.

Midi: Got it on my map.

Douglas: Holy molly!

Suddenly, the computer displayed some sort of space colony of the size of Neo-New-York city.

Ciel: How come we never knew he was building something like that?

Alia: Scientist privacy.

Signas: The only thing left to do is to go into that colony and destroy his plans.

Douglas: But going there all by yourself is really dangerous.

Signas: Douglas is right. All right then, I want all of you in the hangar. We are going into space.

Midi: Yipee! space!

Douglas: Okay. I'll prepare the dream cruiser.

And now, Dr, Weil's real base was identified. All of our heroes are going to help X and Axl on their way. This place shall be the scenario for the final battle against the power of darkness and the power of light.
