The resurrection of Bass-Chapter 8

Axl arrived back at hunter base. He had explained the situation to Signas, and Sigma to the hospital wing. At this time Zero was healed. He strongly disagreed with keeping a murderer at their base, but he didn't have much of a choice. So Zero put up with him, but closely monitored him nonetheless.

Meanwhile, back in hell, Bass was walking back towards the portal he had left. But when he arrived there, X was already there waiting for him.

"Megaman! I didn't anticipate on running into you here. But no matter, this will just make things easier." Bass said to X.

"My name is X, who are you?"

"You still don't remember me, do you? Well then, let me refresh your memory!" Bass yelled as he rushed at X. X charged his buster and stood in a ready position, to try to counter his attackers move. Bass jumped in the air, did a triple front flip, and landed a crushing kick on X. Luckily, X was able to throw his guard up at the last second, and got knocked back 10 feet. His feet left drag marks on the ground. It was now X's turn.

"I don't want to hurt you, but I will if I have to!" X said. He stopped charging his buster and fired it right at Bass. Bass drew is fist and punched the blast right back to X, knocking him to the ground.

"That was always like you Megaman, you always tried to talk your way out of things. Well, speech won't save you now!" Bass lunged at X, but X grabbed Bass' arms, and kicked him in the chest, sending him in the opposite direction. Bass landed on his hand and sprung himself on to his feet. X also rose to face the challenge.

"That's it!" X yelled. "I'm not playing around anymore!" X once again drew his buster, but instead of one big charged blast, he fired several smaller faster shots. Bass crossed his arms across his face and blocked all of X's shots

"That's it?" Bass yelled. "Your buster never was up to par with mine!" In a mere second, Bass fired a shot at X that was twice as powerful as his fully charged. X couldn't block it. It hit him and sent him flying. But Bass started running. He soon caught up to the flying X, ran behind him, and started punching the blue maverick hunter. Bass delivered 7 swift, yet powerful, blows. Then he hit with a devastating uppercut, sending X flying into the air. Bass jumped above him, did a front flip, and landed a crushing kick on X's head, sending him into the ground. Bass stayed in midair, readying his buster. "Here comes the pain!" Bass yelled and fired 15 shots of his buster towards X on the ground. All of them hit. Bass landed on the ground. "Pathetic, that's twice I've beaten you in this time. You have grown weak." The last thing X saw was Bass walking through the portal. After that, he slipped into darkness.
