Code X
Chapter Twelve - Maverick

Commander Signas had called a meeting to discuss important matters. They were only waiting for Odd to arrive.

"Man, where is he?" Ulrich complained.

Odd, as if on que, came rushing in. "Sorry I'm late!"

Comander Signas cleared his throat. "We may now begin. I've called this meeting to discuss the matter of working in teams. The first team will consist of X, Axl, and Zero. They shall be named the 'Huneter Group'. The next group shall be of Yumi, Ulrich, Odd, and Aelita. You will be called the 'Human Squad' -"

"That's stupid! Can't we be called the 'Lyoko Warriors'?" Odd groaned.

"Fine," he responded. "And lastly, Megaman, Protoman, Jeremy and the future Zero shall be called 'Team Blade'. Any questions?"

Odd raised his furry, purple paw into the air. "Can't we call him something else?"

Ulrich laughed. "What is it with you and name's today?"

The future Zero spoke up, "Call me Zello*."

Yumi then raised her hand. "Don't you think it's unfair the the 'Hunter Group' is the only one with three instead of four?"

A man in black armor, wearing a black circular hat with purple hair, holding a playing card, entered the room. "I am the fourth member. Name's Spider young lady."

Zero shouted immediatly - the other hunters too shocked to speak - "That's impossible! Spider was some loser made up by Colnel Redips!"

He was refering to a time, a few years back, when he and X were sent on a mission to work with a leader called Colnel Redips to destroy the Maverick group led by Epsilon. While on thier adventures, they met a bounty hunter called Spider. He'd helped them through many dificult fights. However, he was once seen blowing himself up to save Zero and X.

Later, they discovered that it was Colnel Redips in disguise. He was actually just trying to get his enemies out of the way, something he'd accomplished with X's help.

Spider sighed and waved his hand. "I know my name was thrown around in the dirt, but I'd like to make up for it. That's why I'm here." He then held out his hand. "Nice to meet you all. I wish I could say 'Nice to see you again' though." He chuckled lightly, hoping to lighten the mood.

Megaman smiled and shook his hand. "Well, now we're all even and powerful."

Odd's stomach growled and he began to complain about eating. Signas told him of buying human food in the city and that Axl and Zero would accompany them. Odd jumped with joy and the teenagers left the building.

"So what exactly do you guys eat?" Odd asked the reploids.

"We don't. Though we do have to take the time to sleep and repair our systems, we don't need to eat," Zero answered seriously.

Axl then laughed hysterically after seeing Odd's face.

When they finally arrived, the humans began to eat thier fill. Zero and Axl turned thier heads, hearing an explosion. A green war machine, a large gun placed onto his shoulder, smashed through the wall.

"Vile!" Zero shouted.

"You'll never get rid of me!" Shouted the robot. He then fired a bomb from his left shin. Zero and Axl leaped out of the way.

"What are you guys doing?" Yumi asked. The adolescents were staring at them very strangely for they only saw the two jumping around and screaming at the air.

"What!? What do you mean!?" Zero turned his head and saw an image of the teens, bloody and dead. Axl turned and saw the image as well.

"How could you!?" Axl shouted. "I'm gonna kill you! White armor, on!" His armor then changed to be white with purple stripes instead of his original black with red stripes.

"Black armor on!" Zero's armor then changed to the color black and the two of them stared angrily at thier foe.

"What are they doing? They are screaming at air!" Ulrich shouted.

Zero began swing his saber around as Axl began firing in random directions. The people in the cafe had to run and hide in order to avoid the attacks.

"Hey knock it off!" Aelita screamed. "This is crazy!"

Zero and Axl were only seeing this "Vile" character and wasn't being destroyed. They began to breath heavily as they grew exhausted.

"We need more power!" Axl shouted. Zero nodded and the two of them began to shout loudly, appearently increasing thier strength. Odd stopped and noticed a trail of darkness flowing into Zero and Axl's direction. He then trailed it back to William.

"William! Laser Arrow!" Odd fired a laser from his paw, but William jumped into the air and laughed. "My work here is done. I'll leave."

"What!? So William is making the two of them crazy?" Aelita asked.

Zero and Axl stopped shouting and turned to them. "No," they said in unison. "We are completly sane now." They paused for a moment and stared at them. "Now die humans!"
