Mega Man Zero Elpizo
Chapter 8
Mission End
Omega panted as they fought. Alpha's power had increased drastically. However, surprisingly Omega was able to hold his own against Alpha.
"How is this possible? You should be nothing more than debris by now." Alpha demanded.
Omega ignored Alpha's question and continued the battle.
Omega's blade erupted into flames and with a mighty blow he struck at Alpha. However, Alpha blocked the flaming blade and struck Omega with the other sword. Omega winced slightly before he fired a volley of plasma blasts into the chest of Alpha.
The Two Dragons would be unable to overcome each other. Only the Guardian could unite them.
Omega's fiery blue eyes sharpened as he fought. Never had he faced a foe that had been able to last this long.
Equal in power and determination…
Omega's large blade struck at Alpha's legs. However, Alpha retaliated with a strike to Omega's chest.
Equal in might, and in intelligence…
Omega ducked under an attack from Alpha's glowing blades.
But, both truly searching for one thing…
Alpha rolled out of the way of Omega's cannon blasts.
But, cursed to search for over a hundred years.
Omega swiped at Alpha's legs with his own leg.
Both searching to be complete and free; for their hearts to be released from their bondage…
Alpha brutally punched the side of Omega's leg as he tried to stand.

X watched as the two of them fought to a standstill. He sensed their agony, not just the physical pain but the pain within their hearts.
He had to stop the battle. Suddenly he felt a power arise within himself.
Two white wings shot out from his armor. His black armor became white and gold. He felt a sword in each of his hands. The blades were long but they weren't extremely wide. Each of the two blades were metallic metal in color and were approximately four feet long.
Hyper Mode
'Guardian'
Initialize
His systems announced faintly. X wasn't sure what the new hyper mode could do but he was going to find out. X dashed over to the two of them and blocked Alpha's blades as they descended towards Omega.
"What are you doing X?" Alpha asked coolly.
"Ending this." X replied.
Omega nodded slightly.
"Yeah, I'm not getting anywhere." Omega admitted wryly.
X began to strike Alpha rapidly with the two blades. Finally one of the strikes knocked Alpha's unconscious. Alpha's helmet fell off from the impact when Alpha fell. X's eyes widened in surprise at the face underneath.
"Who would have done this?" X asked in shock.
"I dunno. Someone like Sigma; back when he was infected by the virus."
"But why her?" X asked.
"That is what I would like to know." Omega admitted.
"I wish I knew why 'Alpha' wanted to obtain the Supra Force Metal." X added.
"Let's remove her weaponry and armor. That way we can interrogate Alpha without risking her destroying almost everything." Omega suggested.
"And remove the Supra Force Metal." X added.
Omega nodded his head slightly.
"Without my armor and weapons I am just a really fast and really strong human, I'd be able to defeat lower level reploids but I am certain that I couldn't fight you without my equipment; I would assume that it is much the same for Alpha here."
"Alright then, lets return to Blitzkrieg HQ, we can call Giga City and inform them that we have retrieved the Supra Force Metal, I will also notify them that it will be destroyed." X took Alpha's weapons away from her.
"Omega, you would know how to remove her armor better than any of us." X noted.
Omega nodded.
"I would." He agreed.
"Would you do so before she wakes up, and then send her to the interrogation room?"
"Very well." Omega nodded slightly.
X walked away from Omega and found the rest of the team.
"X, I've been thinking. Could we join Blitzkrieg for a while?" Spider asked.
"We?" X asked.
"Well, Marino, Massimo, Cinnamon, Gaudille, Nana, and I have talked for a while and want to join up." Spider explained.
"X I'll go join up with Zero after all these injuries heal. Palette said she would go as soon as I tell her I'm ready." Axl added.

"This is Vile, the factory is out of commission, and the stupid phoenix is no more as well. At least I got a flame chip off of him."
"Excellent work Vile. Transfer in three, two, one…" The operator transferred him.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Alpha opened her eyes. She realized that she had failed; she would be cursed to live like this forever now or until they destroyed her. She looked around. She was in a medical room, there were machines lining the room and the bed she was in had a number of diagnostic systems attached. Her armor had been removed but her garments were undisturbed. She then looked for her swords; they were also gone. She sighed as she wondered why they had spared her life. Most likely they planned on questioning her. She didn't really have a reason to not answer their questions now.
"Sir, she has awakened." She heard someone say.
"Please, just X." X's soft voice said as he neared the door to her room.
The door opened and the blue armored Reploid entered.
"Hello Alpha." X said pleasantly.
She could sense that X wasn't happy.
"I do have trouble with people that threaten Alia." X told her quietly after he sensed what she was thinking.
"What are you going to do with me?" Alpha asked.
"Obviously we can't release you are far too dangerous to let loose." X half replied as he took a seat next to her bed.
"Then what do you want with me?" Alpha demanded.
"Answers." X replied shortly.
"What, you willing to torture me for them?" She asked bitingly.
"I don't know what you were told about Blitzkrieg but we never stoop that low." X replied.
"Unless I don't give you answers." She replied dryly.
"Let's just move on, why did you go after the Supra Force Metal?" X asked.
"I needed its power. I had a deal with an old scientist; he promised to change me back into a pure human if I destroyed Alia. Then, he changed the deal by adding Omega-1 as another objective. He did promise to release my family from the frozen sleep if I did destroy Omega-1 though. When Alia hit that button on that desk my plans were ruined so I decided to destroy you too. I did get another concession from him though; if I were to destroy you he would destroy Omega."
"Wait, you were to destroy Omega." X stopped her.
"A different Omega. The scientist has control over a super Reploid that he dubbed 'Omega'."
"I see… You mean the banished Reploid…" X thought for a long time before he continued.
"What is your true name?" X asked.
"I don't remember…." Alpha admitted.
"Who is this scientist you keep mentioning?" X asked.
"I don't know his name; I just know he mutated me into someone like Omega-1."
"Your objective was freedom?" X asked.
"Yes." She replied simply.
"Bringing death upon others for freedom is wrong." X replied.
"You may have a noble sense of honor but I live in the real world, I don't hide in some hidden base." Alpha replied coldly.
X shook his head slightly.
"If you still want to be changed back into a pure human Gate might be able to help you."
"You'd do that for me?" She asked in awe.
"Yes, but know this: you are the only one who truly has a chance at saving your family. I don't know them, nor do I know even where to start looking."
"…Give me some time please." She replied after a long moment.
X nodded slightly.
"I would get some rest while you are at it." X added as he stood and left the room.
"Why…? Why is he so kind?" She wondered aloud.
She shook her head. There was no way X would be that trusting. Unless, unless he could see that she had been telling the truth, and even if he did sense that there was no way he would help her like that. It was an impossibility.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
X's system's blared another warning after he left Alpha's room. He needed to undergo repairs and soon.
Critical Capacity
Emergency Shut Down:
15:00 Minutes
X sighed and went to the medical center. He needed repairs. When he entered the facility the Reploid repair crew took a single glance at X before rushing over to begin emergency repairs. They had gotten used to X obtaining severe injuries. If X entered the Medical Center it was either to help someone else or X had taken severe damage.
"Prepare for emergency procedures!" A doctor ordered.

"This is Vile, the supply train has been stopped, and I have obtained an electrical element chip from the enemy." Vile announced.
"Excellent work Vile, transfer in 3, 2, 1…"

"Zero, Elpizo said he wanted to talk to you." Zero nodded slightly at Ciel.
Zero stood and looked at Iris for a moment. When her eyes gazed at him questioningly he offered his arm to her. She instantly jumped up and grabbed hold of his arm. He smiled at her enthusiasm.
"Alright let's get this over with." Zero said to Ciel.
When they reached the Command Center they saw Vile, Elpizo, and the operators. On screen there was an image of a young Resistance Sergeant.
"Sir, we are all in position, we may commence firing immediately." The Sergeant saluted.
Vile stared at Elpizo for a moment.
"Elpizo, are you intending that I shouldn't join them?" Vile asked coolly.
Elpizo shook his head.
"On the contrary Vile, I wanted to have you go in a little bit later to really cause some havoc."
"That will do then." Vile replied.
"All troops begin attack." Elpizo ordered.
The screen went dim as the sounds of Rifles and explosions began.
"I will command our forces from the front lines, operators transfer me." Elpizo ordered.
"Yes sir, Transfer in 3…2…1…" The blond haired operator spoke.
Her voice was filled with trepidation.
Zero shook his head. He was having difficulties believing that such a level headed Reploid would launch such an attack. He knew that he would have to intervene once again…
SURPRISED:D THIS IS A MUCH LONGER CHAPTER THAN ALMOST ANY OF MY OTHER CHAPTERS. (IT MIGHT EXPLAIN WHY IT TOOK SO LONG...)
