Yay, I actually got this chapter up on time! And I beat Megaman X8! (well, it was in easy mode, but I'll beat normal mode soon...I hope) And now, without further ado, Chapter 11!


Poisonous Spyder is glaring at us, probably thinking that he will be the one to finally defeat the Hunters. Rush is pulling out the Z Saber, still grinning that weird grin of his. X is watching in anticipation, and Axl is just hanging there. I think that Axl thinks that he can get rid of the duck-tape if he moves his mouth enough, but I doubt it. As for me, I am prepared for what will be the lamest battle ever. I mean, Axl's right, this guy is lame. What's the point of beign called poisonous when all you have are webs, and a thing of duck-tape? I mean, I'm more scared of Signas than this guy (well, that's not saying much...).

"Okay Rush, here's the plan," I say to him. "You distract him, and I'll find his weak-point."

"Got it covered, buddy," Rush replys. Buddy? Well. it's better than being on his bad side. Rush turns to the maverick, much in the same way I would.

"You call yourself a maverick?" He asks. "I'll take you down easy. Doin' it for Megaman." I watch as Spyder climbs up his webbing on the side of the wall, but when Rush tries to climb after him, he gets stuck. Stupid, don't you know that only spiders can climb up that stuff? Hmm, how's he supposed to get up there now?

"Zero, transform into Coil Mode!" Rush orders, freeing himself with the saber. Coil mode? How useless is that? I do so anyway, only because this body automatically does, not because I want to. Soon, I look more like a kiddie toy than a dog, with a coil replacing my legs.

"Oh, I'm soooo scared," Spyder mocks, making faces at us from the ceiling. "What are you going to do, play on your little toy Zero?" Or course, he sees Rush as being me, and I'm just a dog. I'll have to fix that.

"You'll see," Rush says. "I remember Megaman doing this." Jumping inside, Rush presses a button that appears between my shoulders in Coil Mode. I begin to press myself down , until the coil beneath me is flat. Wait a minute, now I see what he's doing.

"Alright then," I say, "Ready for launch?" Rush nods his head, bringing out the Z Saber.

"And...now!" The coil releases at the sound of those words, as we propel oursleves into the air. I have to admit, this is sorta'...fun. I've never jumped this high in my life. Rush jumps out, grabbing onto Poisonous Spyder while I begin to fall back to the ground. The coil eases my fall, and soon I'm back to being a dog. I really wish I could do something, I mean, be in the fight. I've always been the "Come on, let's go bust that maverick" one of the group. But now? I'm stuck as a "support unit." Now I know why Rush is so excited to fight. Because he never really got to be a big part of the action before


Before I know it, another memory comes into my head. It has Dr. Light and Megaman again. I'm right next to Megaman in this, watching as Dr. Light. He is standing in front of a table, which seems to have something on it, but I can't see what. Megaman is also trying to see, but to no avail.

"So, he's going to be built for battle like me?" Megaman asks.

"Yes, he will have parts designed for battle," The doctor replys. "But he will be programmed to be peaceful. I'm baseing him off of you, Megaman."

"But why me?" The little guy next to me asks. "Why not Protoman, or Roll? Or even Rush?"

"The way I built you is exactly how I want this one to be," Light answers. "You can fight, but you don't want to hurt people. You always act for others before yourself. You know how much this world needs peace, but you can fight for it. That is exactly what I want for him."

"Dr. Light?" Megaman asks. Dr. Light looks up from his work.

"Yes Megaman?"

"Is he going to have a family too? Are you going to make another Roll and Protoman?" Dr. Light shakes his head.

"No Megaman, he won't. I can only use this technology on him, and I cannot make amy others like him. You, Roll, and Protoman will have to be his family." The memory changes it's perspective to look at Megaman, who is looking really down. He looks at me, and his face brightens up.

"Well then, can you make him a partner, like Rush?" Megaman asks, a look of hope in his eyes. Dr. Light thinks about this.

"Yes, I suppose I could," he says. "I'll use Rush's data for it, and he can be a support unit too." Dr. Light goes back to his work, doing a few adjustments. "Would you like to see him Megaman?"

"Yes, I really would!" Dr. Light nods, and moves away to let Megaman and I see. On the table is none other than X. Before I see more, the memory ends.


I open my eyes again to see Rush still fighting Poisonous Spyder. Saber extended, he's actually doing good (of course, I could still do better). Spyder is fast, though, and it makes up for his small size. He just keeps running, but Rush is still swiping away. Suddenly, Spyder shoots out a thing of webbing, catching Rush in it. The Z Saber is thrown out of his hand, one thought clouding my mind as I see it.

"FEEEEEEETCH!" To the stupid dog-brained instincts I'm stuck with in here, the flung saber looks remarkably like a stick. So, like any dog would do, I run off to fetch it, catching it perfectly in my mouth. Then realization hits me: I have my saber back. It's time to party. I turn towards Poisonous Spyder, who thinks he's won. He's already boasting about it.

"-and now, I'm the one who caught the Hunters! You can all stay here until your batteries run dry, and no one will ever know the difference! And I, Poisonous Spyder, shall go down in history as the one who finally allowed Sigma to take over the world! MWAHAHAHAHA!" While he keeps laughing, he slowly drops to the ground on a web. While he's unaware, I jump up to cut the rope, sending him crashing into the ground. Before he can realize what happened, I'm standing over him, saber in my mouth (I am going to have to clean it when this is all over, for I will not tolerate spittle on my saber, even if it's my own).

"Eheh, nice doggy," he whimpers, "I was only kidding. I was going to let them go, so don't hurt me. That's right, good doggy." I smile as I slice the Z Saber into his stomach. I smile as he deactivates and blows up. No one, and I mean no one, can stop Zero. Even when I am a dog.


Last chapter will be Wednesday, so be there! I hope you'll enjoy it. As for me, I'm off to go get my...braces. Oh well, see ya' later!
