Neko-chan:…………… Hello…..
Rock: Where have you been, Neko-chan? The readers are wondering what is going to happen to us.
Neko-chan scratches her head and laughs nervously: Well, I had to study for a test.
Rock: What test?
Neko-chan: coughsatcough
Rock: I see. Will you continue the story now that the test is over?
Neko-chan: Yes.
Rock: HOORAY!
Neko-chan: Roll, have you seen Zero-kun around here lately?
Roll: No.
Neko-chan looks to Rock. Rock shakes his head.
Neko-chan: I wonder where he is?
Roll: All characters in this story are owned by CAPCOM unless otherwise stated.
Neko-chan: Flame Bomber belongs to me unless I missed it and there really was an Irregular name Flame Bomber in the games.

Chapter 2: Who are you again?
------------------------------------------------------------
"Alia…Alia, do you read?" X tried to reconnect to HQ.
The room started to rumble again. X turned to Zero, "Looks like communications with HQ are scrambled. We're on our own."
Rock looked at Blues with a worried expression, "What's going on?"
"I don't know, Rock."
The rumbling came closer and closer until it broke through the wall.
Zero stared at the newcomer, "Who the hell are you?"
"The Zero and X?" It was surprised. "It is I, Flame Bomber, who defeat you!"
Zero, with his Z-saber, and X, with his X-buster, charged at the newcomer and the battle began. After a few slashes and plasma shots, the Irregular notice Roll, standing there unprotected. Flame Bomber noticed this and headed towards her. Rock and Blues saw this happening and ran to help their sister, charging their busters as they ran. By the time they got in front of Roll, their busters were already charged and ready to fire.
"Iikee!" Blues released the charged shot.
"Super Rock Buster!"
'Super Rock Buster?' thought X.
The two charged shot left a hole in the Irregular's chest, causing their enemy to fall backwards.
"This can't be happening. Master W..--" He fell down and cease function.
"You're Rockman, aren't you?" asked X.
"You're as dense as Rock, X," Blues stated.
"Hey!" exclaimed Rock.
"What? You really are."
"Some big brother you are Blues."
"Heh, I try not to do my best." The two brothers began arguing.
"Ignore them. They're always like this." Roll said.
"He's really…You're really.." X began.
"Yes, he's Rockman, hard to believe it, but I wouldn't have it any other way."
The little dispute between Rock and Blues had ended, with Rock in a headlock.
"We don't except you to welcome us with open arms," Blues stated.
Roll smiled, "What he means is that take as long as you want. We'll be waiting."
"What great news, X!" Zero gave X a hard pat on the back, which caused X to gag. "You'll finally get to know your family! Get the answers to all your questions."
"After all these years.." began X.
"Something happened weeks after you were built and Papa shoved us into the capsules and …" Rock began to cry.
X caught onto what Rock was saying, tears also came out of his eyes. "I see, Rock. Thank you."
(static) "Zero…X.. Do you read?"
"Zero here. We read you loud and clear Alia."
"You've defeated the Irregular?" she asked.
"Well, yeah, but not us."
"Huh? What do you mean not you two?"
"Rockman and Blues destroyed the Irregular."
"You mean Rockman X and somebody named Blues did, right? Who is Blues? I'm also detecting six other signatures there. Are they all right?"
"No, I don't mean Rockman X. I meant Rockman, the Rockman and his older brother, Blues. And everyone's all right, just a few dents."
"Zero, you're kidding. You don't mean the Rockman that fought in the Wily Wars. Not to mention his brother. That's impossible! They shouldn't even be still functioning in this time!"
"They're still functioning. I'm looking at them right now." Zero looks over to the Light bots as they explain what happened to them to X.
"I don't feel like arguing with you, Zero. Just head back to HQ. Alia out." And with that the line went dead.
Zero turned to the computer, "Looks like that Irregular did a number to the computer."
"That?" Roll looked at Zero, "We've already input all the data into our processors."
"Okay, lets head back to HQ then." Zero was about to drag the Light bots to the door when…
"Zero, we only have two ride chasers," stated X.
"Oh…"
"Rush, can you transform, boy?" asked Rock.
"Aup!" Rush transformed into hover mode.
"I think the jet flyer still works," Roll pointed to the jet flyer in the corner. Surprisingly it didn't get damage in the fight.
"See, X, problem solved." Zero dragged X out the door. The Light bots followed their new friends as it was better than staying here and crying their hearts out for Dr. Right.
Zero and X got onto their ride chasers. Rush, with Rock and Roll on board, followed behind them. Blues had don the jet flyer and was behind them.
/About an hour later/
They had arrived at IHHQ and met up with Alia, who was shocked when she saw who the Hunters were with.
"You weren't joking Zero when you said Rockman and Blues," Alia told Zero.
"Would I joke about this sort of thing?"
"You are Zero."
"Hey! What's that suppose to mean?"
"Shouldn't we explain this to Signas?" asked X.
Out of nowhere, for something strange reason, Signas walked to them, "Explain what, X?"
"Commander!" X was caught of guard.
"We found Rockman and his siblings," Zero stated plainly.
Signas looked at Zero, confused. He turned to X, "Indeed, he is right here, Zero. You do not need to state the obvious."
"Not Rockman X, Rockman Rockman."
"So….WHAT!" Signas exclaimed. "You two found the legendary Rockman!"
X, Zero, and Alia nodded.
"The one who fought in the Wily Wars!"
They nodded.
"One of Right's greatest creations!"
They nodded.
"Are they here?"
They nodded.
"I have to see this," Signas mumbled. "Where are they?"
The three Reploids lead Signas to the 17th Unit Rec. room. There, the Right bots were watching TV. The robots had heard someone enter the room and looked up. Signas stood there, staring at them as if they would disappear anytime soon.
"Hi, I'm Rock! Who are you?"
"Rock, this is our Commander, Signas." X said.
"Blues."
"Please to meet you. I'm Roll."
Later, in Signas' Office
"So, let me get this straight," Signas looked at Alia, X, and Zero. "Alia got a reading at Right's old lab, and you two went to go check it out?"
The three nodded.
"There you found a hidden door in the room X was found…You entered and Blues shot Zero and a battle begun. Then a Irregular showed up, tried to attack Roll, and Rockman and Blues blew a hole in it. That was when you two realized who they were."
X and Zero nodded.
"And here we are, having this conversation."
"That's about it Signas," Zero stated.
"So now we have the most famous robot of all time in the 17th Unit Rec. room…..Well, X, looks like you're not the only one left after all."
"Huh?" X was confused.
"You have, what humans call, older siblings. Even though they look younger than you."
"I'm not the only one left…" X whispered to himself.
"Why are you quite, man?" questioned Zero. "You can finally get the answers you've always wanted!"
"Thanks, Zero."
"I think we should clue-in the robots about the future," Alia said. "I'm pretty sure they want to know how much it has changed since their time."
"And the best person to do that is X!" exclaimed Zero.
"Huh? Why me!"
"You guys share a bond, that's why," Alia told X.
"Alright, it's settle. X will inform them of the future. Now, all of you get out of my office. I have to get this report done." Signas kicked them out of his office.
Alia, X, and Zero headed towards the 17th Unit Rec. room to inform the Right bots.
"How did I get myself into these things?" wondered X.
