Mega Man X Vendetta

Chapter 15

Deep Strike

Omega hurriedly pulled to the left as a missile shot by him. It nearly hit his fighter and the Nav computer reported that it would have destroyed him.

"I have to get him off my tail…" Omega muttered.

"Having trouble there, abomination?" The Alpha fighter asked tauntingly.

"Just one problem…"

"Oh and what is that?" The Alpha fighter asked in amusement.

"How best to destroy you." Omega replied.

The Alpha fighter replied by firing its laser cannons.

DAMAGE

SHIELD DAMAGE 20 PERCENT

REMAINING SHIELD 30 PERCENT

Omega's left hand flew to the emergency control panel. He began to type furiously.

EMERGENCY ATTACK SYSTEMS ACTIVATED

SHIELD POWER DIVERTED TO ATTACK SYSTEMS

MOBILITY INCREASED BY 25 PERCENT

LASER ATTACK POWER UP BY 80 PERCENT

Omega arced his fighter and quickly pulled behind the enemy spacefighter. He quickly lined up the Alpha fighter in front of him and fired a barrage of lasers.

"Emergency! Intruders have entered Armageddon's outer hangars! All forces eliminate the threat! Repeat, intruders have entered Armageddon, all forces attack the threat!"

X looked at his comrades. Zero was smirking slightly and Axl gave him a thumbs up as they drew their weapons.

"That's it? And I thought they were taking us seriously." Axl grinned.

"Means we should be done in about five minutes." Zero said as he activated his saber.

X strode forward and as soon as he looked out the door he saw countless Mavericks swarming towards the Hangar. Quickly he activated his Particle cannons and began to attack them as they approached. He knew that he wouldn't be able to hold them forever before they got close and then, he would be forced into close quarters combat.

"Alia! Go back to bed! You are injured and have no clearance to be active! This could be a major setback for your recovery!" Layer glared at her.

"Not until X is safely home." She whispered.

"Alia!" Palette protested.

"I won't be able to rest knowing where he is, you two. I must stay here until he's back. Please understand."

"Alia… X certainly is fortunate to have someone like you." Iris said as she entered the room.

"You are not helping Iris!" Layer frowned.

"Touché are we? Such a pity, look getting mad won't help. I understand where Alia is coming from. I am having no success at resting right now either. I need to be here and so does Alia. In these times this is where we belong; helping those we love. Zero and X have both taken horrific injuries and were still capable of continuing because they had the resolve and determination, even as their bodies should have failed they still moved forward. They had to move forward. They felt there was no other option, there was no other choice. This is one of those moments, but in this case it deals with Alia and I. Soon enough you two will understand. But for now, just trust me." Iris said.

Alia look at Iris gratefully as she sat next to her. After, Iris had sat down; Alia whispered two simple words to her "Thank you."

"But, this is different!" Layer finally responded.

"How so?" Iris asked.

"It's….Well…" Layer began.

"Just give it a rest Layer." Iris replied.

"This is getting ridiculous." Axl said after he had fired his pistols into the mouth of an oncoming Mechanaloid.

Zero ignored him and swung his Z-Saber at the Mavericks standing in front of him. The blade cut through the five mavericks. This went on for a time and finally Zero had been completely surrounded by enemies. He had destroyed so many, yet they continued to come. He tightened his grip around his saber and suddenly he slammed his fist into the ground. A massive explosion of energy erupted around him and the shockwave eliminated all of the Mavericks around him. He was then able to notice whom he had been fighting. The mavericks were basic RB Imperial troops. The blood-red uniforms with the silver lines running from their shoulders to their hands on the outside of their sleeves had become all too familiar. The silver also ran down the sides of their pants as well. How anyone could be willing to wear the uniform of such an evil government was beyond him.

"Zero! Let's keep moving!" X called out to him.

Zero nodded and walked over to X and Axl. Soon, the final battle would begin.

Omega quickly flew into hangar 52. His fighter was severely damaged, it would be difficult to return to earth in it. Omega exited the damaged spacefighter and looked around. The room was filled with destroyed Imperial troops. It was obvious that they had been destroyed by the three former Hunters. However, it still was surprising to see so many downed enemies in the area.

He drew his blade and ignited the weapon. His blue eyes began to glow brightly. The irises of his eyes seemed to catch fire.

"This will end today." He spoke powerfully.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

X aimed his X-buster at the jammer within the communications center. His buster began to glow as he stood there.

"Stand back you two." X ordered as his computer notified him that his weapon had charged.

Zero and Axl quickly stepped back and X fired his charged buster. The explosion made the entire superstructure shudder from the fierceness of the attack.

"Warning! The Anti-trans unit has been destroyed! Communication Jammer has been destroyed! Enemy forces can enter the weapon! Repeat enemy forces can enter Armageddon! As required by code 767, the main cannon will fire at the earth to eliminate the immediate threat, countdown to attack, forty-five minutes. Estimated damage, earth will be totally eliminated. All units report to attack locations. Engineers, start attack checks. The Commander will fire the main cannon when all checks are complete. Repeat,-"

X clenched his fists and immediately began to sprint.

"We have no time! Move it!" X shouted at Zero and Axl.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"This is X, We have major problems. Armageddon is preparing to fire the main weapon! Navigators, can you tell me where to find the Commander so I can stop him from firing the cannon?"

"X, this is Alia, turn left and continue down the hall-"

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"Alright, thank you Alia now where?"

"Take the third door." She replied as well as she could with her injured voice.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"X! Wait up!" Axl called to his receding form.

"Its too late, he can't hear us now." Zero replied.

"He isn't all that far away." Axl protested.

"He is too focused on the danger to Earth to hear us." Zero explained.

"Then, what should we do?" Axl asked.

"Follow and ask the Navigators for support."

"Iris, this is Zero, we need to follow X, can you guide me?" Zero asked.

"Yes, listen-"

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"Attack in thirty minutes." The intercom announced.

Omega frowned. This wasn't good. He had to stop the thing from firing.

Most likely X, Zero and Axl had moved to attack the Commander by now, so he decided to attack the fire control center, then the weapon couldn't fire no matter what was ordered.

However, he had no idea where it was….

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The greatest super weapon took approximately a year to construct; it was destroyed in an hour.
