Another update. Last chapter's reviewers:

marvelboy12: Well, you'll see what happens next soon... But I don't know whether you'll be surprised or not...

ModelAwesome: Really? Honestly, the last chapter was my original idea but I'm not sure about how I got the idea for the sudden amnesia... It was like plot was moving by itself!

Starry Night Reader: Here's another update, and I think more will come tomorrow.

Okay, let's get on with fic!

Black and White Mega Men

Chapter 7 – Enemies or Allies?

Aile was transported back to the Guardian Base and slowly made her way to the Control Room. She went into the room and saw the fully recovered Ashe and Grey, along with Prairie.

"Aile, how's Vent?" Prairie asked with a worried look on her face as Aile sighed sadly. "It's okay, I understand. You don't have to tell us if you don't feel like it."

"Thanks Prairie… Anyways, where is the exact location of the base?" Aile asked, still looking sad.

"I've detected that it was really close to Albert's old hideout. I'm not sure if Albert is actually related to that Maverick base, but it needs to be destroyed. The Mavericks from that base are actually emitting different energy readings from the normal type Mavericks." Prairie explained.

"So you're saying that these aren't like any other Mavericks?" Ashe asked as Prairie nodded.

"This place could be dangerous if you let your guard down, so please be careful you three!" Prairie said as the three of them left the room.

The three of them were transported in front of a damp cave. They pulled out their Biometals and transformed before they all went inside the cave. They explored the cave deeper, but there weren't any signs of Mavericks anywhere in the cave.

"I have the feeling that there could be a trap here…" Grey commented as he and Aile suddenly turned to Ashe.

"What? Do you expect a top class Hunter to fall into a trap?" Ashe asked with an annoyed tone.

"You fell into more than a trap during that last trip, what can you say now?" Grey smiled slyly. He folded his hands and leaned against the cave wall, but suddenly they heard a clicking sound. He suddenly stood back and looked around.

"INTRUDER ALERT! INTRUDER ALERT!" the alarm rang.

"Nice going, Grey!" Ashe complained as Grey glared at her.

"This is no time for arguing you two!" Aile said sternly, "We have to fight to defend ourselves!"

An army of Galleon Hunters suddenly came out from deep inside the cave. Aile pulled out her ZX buster as Ashe and Grey pointed their Homing Shot guns at them. The Galleons exploded on after another, but more of them came from inside the cave.

Grey stepped forward and shot out a few half charged shots at the Galleons which was about to shoot them, destroying them to pieces. Two more Galleons suddenly came from behind and one of them shot Grey on the chest, knocking him back a bit.

'Their attack power is stronger than normal Galleons'!' Grey thought as more of the Galleon Hunters popped out of the cave. 'Is there another way to beat them at once?'

"Rising Fang!" a sonic boom came from behind and slashed most of the Galleons out of the way. The three turned and saw Vent in his ZX form. "Next time, don't start the party without me!" Vent commented as he chuckled.

"Vent! You came!" Aile ran over to him and hugged him. "But how did you find us?"

"Do you remember about the thief tracker we invented before?" Vent asked, "I used the Biometal signal to track you down with the device, but it only works on real Biometals so…" Vent uneasily pointed at Ashe, "I used your Model A to track you guys down…"

"Cool!" Grey commented, "Come on, the cave is still deeper inside!"

Vent nodded as the four of them now went inside the cave. The deeper they were inside the cave, the more the road went down. The walls and ceiling were damp and it was getting darker inside. They stayed close with Vent on the lead and Grey on the back of the line, until the road got a bit brighter.

"Hey, it's getting brighter here. Have we reached the exit yet?" Ashe asked.

"Probably, just keep moving." Vent replied shortly.

They kept on walking and reached the end of the long cave. They were in a room full of operating machines with some Mechaloids coming out of them.

"This isn't just any ordinary Maverick base! It's actually a hidden factory of Mechaloids!" Ashe looked around and saw a Hop Cannon without its springs.

"I never knew that there's a hidden factory where the Mechaloids are created underground, but who would do this kind of operation and what for? Serpent and Albert are both gone!" Vent stopped as he remembered something. "Weil…"

The whole base suddenly shook violently as the machines stopped operating. Aile looked up and saw a crack on the ceiling. It was getting wider as dust fell on top of them. The crack formed a hole and something fell from the ceiling.

"Look out! Something big is going to fall on us!" Grey warned as the four of them ran aside before they could be crushed by the falling object.

The dust cleared up and they saw two giant Mechaloids. One was an eagle like Mechaloid with purple armor and white wings, while the other one was a magenta colored dragon Mechaloid with three horns on his head and purple wings.

"Orehawk! Diadrake! What are they doing here and why are they bigger than the ones we've met before?" Vent asked. Soon after, two figures hopped down through hole and faced the giant Mechaloids.

One of them had a skull shaped helmet, purple armor, and a green cape along with a blue bladed scythe in his hand. The other one had white and blue armor along with a staff.

"Prometheus? Pandora?" Ashe and Grey asked in disbelief as they had seen their old enemies, but the Reploid siblings ignored them.

"We're not done with you yet!" Prometheus said before he dashed forward and swung his scythe hard at Diadrake, cutting it in half. Pandora pointed her staff upwards and created a giant bottle made of ice on top of Orehawk. She swung her staff downwards as the bottle fell on top of it and crushed it.

Prometheus and Pandora turned around to face the four Chosen Ones. "What do we have here? It's just like the old times, isn't it?"

"What are you talking about? We're not here to fight you!" Ashe protested as Prometheus and Pandora fell to their knees. "H-Hey, are you okay?"

"You're still showing your sympathy towards your enemies… How pathetic…" Prometheus commented, "Do you think that so weak that we wouldn't survive like you four?"

"The Model W fragments had kept us alive even after the countdown Albert had put in us had reached zero…" Pandora added.

"But you're badly injured right now, so let us take you back to the Guardian Base." Vent offered.

"You think that we needed the help from you, huh? Ugh…" Prometheus held out a hand over his chest. "Fine… do whatever you want with us…"

Aile nodded and reached her communicator. "Prairie, transfer us back. We have found some injured here."

"Okay, hold on." Prairie replied from the other side.

The six of them glowed for a moment before they were transferred back to the Guardian Base.

Prometheus and Pandora had made their entrance! And I have no idea what else I should say! (literally!) Well, I guess I'll end this here for now... Please review!
