Mega Man X: Hello, my name is X. A Maverick Hunter fighting for peace. That Giant Symbiote complicated our mission to stop the falling Gravitron Core. Thanks to Doctor Doom, we combined the powers of the Exo Stones with Ruby's eyes to destroy them both. The planet was saved. Well, most of it. Only Metro City is suffering the Sigma Virus. That includes me and my friends…

Unknown.
BGM-Super Dragon Ball Heroes OST-Creepy Space Tree
Sonic floats in a cosmic void full of colors that doesn't make this realm any less creepy. There is something ominous about this place. No one else is here except for the unconscious hedgehog that is soon awakened by a bright light before his eyes. The light is too blinding, but he can barely make out an intimidating silhouette standing there resembling an unfamiliar Titan wearing world-conquering armor and speaking to the hedgehog as if he knows him, "You who calls himself a Freedom Fighter."
"Who's there?" Sonic asked the mysterious figure.
"I am the end of your adventures as you were the beginning of my conquest." The Mysterious Titan replied vaguely.
"Are you a vision from the Genesis Stone?" Sonic wondered sternly.
"In time, you will know what it's like to lose. To feel so desperately that you're right, yet to fail all the same. Dread it. Run from it. Destiny still arrives. The end is near." The Titan claimed, cryptically warning the hero of an inevitable challenge before vanishing into the light.
"Huh…? Wait!" Sonic wanted to go after him but couldn't as a strange power cause him to scream in pain, "AAAAAAAAUGH!" More strange visions then flood his head because of the Genesis Stone. He sees the Titan being menacing on his space throne. His six alien generals that look just as threatening. Worlds merging. People dying. And all eight Exo Stones being assembled on what looks to be a golden gauntlet.
Wasn't long until Sonic recovers, this time awakening in the real world at Metro City. Took some effort to stand alongside the group that helped him destroy both the Symbiote Monster and the Gravitron Core at the Skyscraper Under Construction. Spider-Man and Strider are with him when they see him waking up, quipping, "Well…that was disturbing.", while deciding to keep those visions to himself for now. As the heroes have more pressing matters to deal with now.

Later at the Mad Gear Hideout…
BGM-Mega Man X8 OST-Deepening Mystery
Doctor Doom and the Resistance decided to relocate to this abandoned thug hideout as their temporary base. A lot happened when they saved Metro City. Some of it not very good and needed to be discussed right away. "The dispersal of the virus was relatively limited. No more than ten blocks have been exposed, and at minimal levels. It could have been much worse." Alia informed the party.
"But we WERE exposed." Chun-Li remarked, while Chris is inspecting his hand to see for himself if he has been infected by the Sigma Virus.
"Confirmed. I'm detecting traces in the symbiote of every one of us, synthetic and organic alike." Doctor Light stated, with his hologram being projected by a Servbot.
"How much time do we have before we turn?" Ryu asked the scientist.
"It's hard to say…Hours, rather than days. I can find no way to suppress the progress of the virus. If we're to stop it…" And as the heroes anticipate what he's going to say, the stern Light states that, "Ultron Sigma must be destroyed."
BGM End
"I was afraid you were gonna say that." Hsien-Ko sighed.
"Taking him down is gonna be a nightmare. Can't you upgrade your Anti-Virus Tech to buy us just a little more time?" Blake asked, turning to the nearby Tron.
"I'm sorry. We've done the best we could. We simply don't have the time to perfect the technology." Tron frowned sadly.
"What about New York City? Did the Sigma Virus leak there?" Spider-Man asked the hologram of Nick Fury.
"Unfortunately. Everyone in the Upper East Side were exposed. That includes some heroes and members of your team. SHIELD is currently quarantining the area until you can complete your mission." Fury informed the heroes.
"So Yang and Weiss…It's only a matter of time 'til they turn Maverick too…" Ruby realized, much to her breaking heart.
BGM-Transformers: Devastation OST-Welcome to the Proudstar
"Damn it all!" Spidey punches a wall in anger as he's feeling responsible for this multidimensional pandemic, "How could I've let all of my friends get infected under my nose? This is infuriating! If only I didn't take that trip to Europe…I could've prevented this, somehow…!"
"If you hadn't taken that trip, you would've become a Maverick Avenger too. Your secret identity saved your life and given us a fighting chance to save everyone we lost." X said, calming his friend by placing a comforting hand on his shoulder. The Hunter Leader then takes this speech further as he walks to the center of the room so he may rally all his friends for what's to come, "Ultron Sigma made the mistake of harming our friends and families. He knows we'll be coming. Odds are we'll be riding into heavy fire. And that's what we signed up for. But the people of our worlds should never share our suffering. All they want is to live their lives in peace. And we'll fight to give that to them again. We WILL get this job done. We raid Xgard, find the Convergence Device, shut it down before more worlds can suffer and then engage Ultron Sigma himself. Keep the fight between us."
"I can transport everyone there. It won't be easy. His base is heavily secured." Ingrid stated, as she was the one who discovered Ultron Sigma's secret base.
"We will have to split up their forces. Find another route in." Doctor Doom suggested to his heroic allies.
"We'll make this work. Now more than ever, if we're to stop Ultron Sigma, stop the virus, we MUST work as one." Spidey proclaimed. "Ultron Sigma thinks we're monsters. That we're what's wrong with the world. This isn't just about beating him. It's about whether he's right." He concluded solemnly, with his dimensional friends considering this chance.

"Even with the Stones in our possession, we cannot yet regulate their power." Light stated to the party.
"Thank you, Doctor Downer." Sonic snarked, sitting down on a sofa.
"Much as it hurts to say it, the Doc's not wrong. The Virus trashed the device and toasted the Aven-Jet." Tron said whilst walking towards the hedgehog's area.
"Whoa, hold up with the tech-speak there, Tron." Issun retorted, with he and Amaterasu sitting beside their hedgehog friend.
"Only the technology of Abel City can save us now." Doom cross-armed stoically.
"He's not lying…not about Abel City's tech, at least." Tron snarked.
"How know you this?" Arthur asked if she's certain.
"Trust me." Tron gestured.
"Take me there, and I will help you complete your device." Doom said.
"Sounds like you know the best repair shop in the future." Xiaoyu joked.
"I know of Sigma's secret laboratory. It is where Ultron Sigma was born and should be abandoned after his move to Xgard. It would be justice to use his own technology against him." Doom revealed, proposing they use Sigma's Lab to complete their weapon.
"That sounds suicidal enough to work. Let's do it!" Spidey quipped.
"We have little time and no other option. We must take this risk." Jin commented.
"That's a sign of this being the end times." Sonic joked.
"And what of the rest of us?" Arthur wondered.
"We're gonna invade Xgard at full force. Distract Ultron Sigma for as long as possible by any means necessary." Knuckles proposed his dangerous idea to his friends.
"That's gonna be impossible. He totally owned us without even trying last time." Axl argued.
"Last time he caught us by surprise. This time we have access to Exo Stones and developed other countermeasures that should slow him down." Alia retorted.
"Our prime weapon being desperation." Viewtiful Joe snarked.
"But this team has gotten bigger, stronger. We CAN do this!" Ruby expressed, encouraging everyone that they do have a shot at winning this war.
BGM End
"You have three minutes to prepare yourselves for the fight of your lives. Failure will not be tolerated, otherwise the virus will consume us all." Doom ordered them to get ready. Ready to prove themselves as the multiverse's mightiest heroes.
BGM-Avengers: Age of Ultron OST-The Mission
The Servbots salvaged what still functions in the Aven-Jet to help the heroes prepare for the final battle with Ultron Sigma. Guns are reloaded. Special Weapon Energy is refilled. Hairs are being brushed. They all need to be at the top of their game if they want a chance to save their worlds. "It is unlikely we all get through this. If even one of us turns, we've lost. It's gonna be blood on the floor." Jill converses with X and Sonic.
"I have no plans tomorrow night." Sonic joked.
"I get first crack on the big guy. Part of him is my arch-nemesis." X noted.
"That's true. He hates you the most." Ingrid confirmed while walking past the reploid, who is left bewildered by her casual statement.
Nearby, Ruby just finished stocking up on ISO-Dust ammo. She looks at herself to see if she's ready, and she is. On the outside. "Time to test if I am capable of becoming a true huntress." She said aloud, still a bit worried she won't be able to stand against Ultron Sigma's power.
"You'll do fine, kid." Dante approaches his fellow hunter with words of encouragement, "We're kindred spirits after all. Always eager to push ourselves to the limit and beyond. The human soul holds infinite power, as long as you fight for what is right."
"And there's nothing more right than wanting to protect my friends." Ruby smiled.
"Exactly! It is that desire to preserve life is what fuels the light inside you. And make no mistake, you have a light that can stand against anything." Dante grinned right back at her after being successful in clearing her self-doubt.
The teams are almost ready for deployment. Two of them. A small team led by Spider-Man will infiltrate Sigma's Lab, while everyone else will be led by X to invade Xgard. Doctor Doom will of course join Team Spidey for his mechanical expertise on the Exo Stone Weapon. As he leaves however, he completely ignores Wolverine sparking a private conversation with Alia. "Listen. Do not let your guard down with that guy, even for a second. I'm serious." Wolverine warns the reploid navigator.
"I won't. Though Doom did risk his life for us." Alia responded, thinking they should trust Doom somewhat.
"Yeah…sure. Just watch yourself, OK?" Wolverine advised, which is acknowledged by her stern nod.
It's just about time to begin their final mission. But before they head out, X and Spidey still have a smiling bro-fist to share. "As long as we're standing, there's hope. Good luck, Avenging Spider-Man." X encouraged his amazing friend.
"Right back atcha, Maverick Hunter X." Spidey retorted to his peaceful pal.
BGM End
Bifrost Bridge, Xgard. Ultron Sigma's Dimension.
BGM-Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order OST-Twisted Reality
Xgard. A dimension between dimensions that looks like a twisted mixture of the most advanced science and the most ancient magic. This whole realm was created to be the ideal base for Ultron Sigma's army and is entirely corrupted by the Sigma Virus, making it near impossible for anyone to invade, let alone find. Luckily, the Resistance found this secret base and infiltrate this world through Ingrid's powers. "Whew…Teleporting everyone here was more exhausting than I thought. They really don't want anyone to disturb their little home." Ingrid joked, with her team arriving on a multi-colored highway broken in half.
"We were lucky to get this far." Blake remarked.
"Still, don't ask me for a quick exit anytime soon." Ingrid quipped.
"Any news from Abel City…?" X asked while standing atop some rubble, concerned about a certain best friend that joined Spider-Man's team.
"Hey…I'm sure Zero will make it." Blake assured her fellow hunter.
"He better not run into traffic. That's more killer than any virus. So don't worry and let's-a-go-go, baby." Viewtiful Joe quips at the reploid, who is a bit annoyed by his nonchalant attitude.
As they explore the Bifrost, the heroes begin noticing something is odd about this realm. Several cars that look to come from Abel City are strewn around, and there are also several Sigma Virus-infected Asgardian statues bordering the bridge at both sides. "Is it just me or does this place look like some weird crossover between Asgard and Abel City?" Sonic spoke up about this strange meshed-up world.
"A twisted realm fit for a false god. This world is like a parasite, killing both dimensions. Destroying the Convergence Device is key in restoring balance, or else there will be dire consequences." Demitri noted sternly.
"The lifeless utopia Ultron Sigma dreams of. That's not gonna happen on our watch!" Chun-Li declared determinedly.
From a distance, several explosions were heard and seem to be coming from somewhere in the large Abel City replica. Ruby stares at that direction and wonders, "Could that be…?"
"Sounds like Doom's army have engaged with the main defense force." Strider realized.
"Anything to brighten the mood here. This city is a grave…" Xiaoyu snarked grimly.
BGM End
And unfortunately for Chris, he sees his left arm becoming cyberized because of the Sigma Virus. It only stops for now because of his great willpower, signaling him that they need to hurry up. "Alright, let's move, or we're all gonna share their fate." He calmly ordered his team.
'HEROES, YOU'VE ARRIVED, AS WE FORETOLD.' Out of nowhere is Ultron Sigma. Or rather his voice being transmitted through the loudspeakers of his large golden palace that is too infected by the virus. 'YOUR BODIES SEEM EAGER TO JOIN US.' On cue he summons his innumerable army to confront the heroes. From Ultron Drones to Infected SHILED Agents to Reaverbots to Mechanolids. All of them led by Cyber-Cyclops and the repaired Maverick Avengers. Though Cyber-Thor is absent for special reasons, 'SOON YOUR MINDS WILL FOLLOW.'
"Go to hell." Wolverine scowled, popping out his claws as the Mavericks surround everyone.
BGM-Mega Man X5 OST-X vs. Zero (Remix by BREIS)
It is the final battle against the Maverick Avengers. An otherworldly rematch with eight of the mightiest corrupted heroes from the other Earth. Power from each of them have been drawn out to their absolute limit by the Evolution Stone in anticipation for this showdown. And to make certain they won't be distracted, their personalities have been completely subverted. They are nothing more than mindless slaves now, forced to a battle to the death with friends that will do whatever it takes to save them.
The first pair to brawl is X versus Iron Man. Machine created by man against the Man wearing a machine. The metal men rush at each other while their charged blasts cancel each other out. X ducks under another shot to rising uppercut Stark into the air before being blasted back down. Stark unloads missiles that force X to don his Ultimate Armor and fight him on equal terms, with their respectively relentless energy barrage, even their charged shots, once again canceling each other with great ferocity that collapses their portion of the highway. Both fall until Iron Man sends his foe into the air with an arching dive attack that grinded X on solid ground. X would've been Unibeamed if it wasn't for his Nova Strike, flying him out of harm's way and ramming Stark high into the air before finishing with a powerful buster beam that too missed its target, if just narrowly.
Next up is Morrigan versus Doctor Strange. The magical fighters are flying over the realm at supersonic speeds until Strange fires a mystic bolt at the succubus. The attack hit, bursting her into bats that swarm around the sorcerer struggling to blow them away before Morrigan reforms herself, flirting with him as she slams him down with a spiraling fall.
After them is Chris versus Hulk. The BSAA Agent is so used to fighting him that he's able to not have his body smashed into a nearby car and evade his savagely incredible punches. Enraged, the Green Goliath lifts up a chunk from the ground and flips it, sending out a wave of flying rocks that the soldier just barely runs away from to get into a comfortable position to fire his gun.
Up next is Dante versus Captain Marvel. Sword blocks fist but a gun forces Danvers to back off. She continues swerving through her foe's bullet barrage before landing a ferocious flurry of blows that sends him flying toward an Asgardian statue, prompting Dante to activate his Devil Trigger and equip his Beowulf weaponry whilst stylishly bouncing off the statue to land a diving kick that is blocked with snarling fury. The Devil Hunter then goes for a sweeping kick that Carol flies high above from to unleash her Power Blaster, a massive golden beam that Dante uppercuts through to finally land a devastating blow on the cosmic captain.
Then it was time for Viewtiful Joe and Storm to have a versus match focused on them. Lightning bolts keep on showering Joe but don't touch him because of all the cool flips and cocky smiles he expresses while racing toward the weather mutant hovering in the sky. From bouncing off the hood of a car, the superhero reaches her with a Red Hot Kick that she blocks with a lightning barrier that electrocutes him off the air. An Ultron Drone flies to catch him but instead is manipulated by Joe into crashing right into Storm, causing her to fall so his VFX powers could slow her down and receive all his flaming punches that pummels her down to the ground where he is promptly blown back by her whirlwind.
Strider versus Captain America is just as intensely face-paced as the others. Steve cartwheels away from the ninja's Vajra technique to retaliate with a shield toss that Strider easily evades, but it was a trick shield that hits him in the back like a boomerang. The stunned ninja is then sent flying away from Cap's powerful kick, enduring more shield tosses that leads to his face being pummeled. Yet within the second before being uppercutted, Strider summons a robotic tiger that ambushes Cap, staggering him to be struck by the ninja's Ragnarok combo. But right before his three afterimages are converging for the final cross slash, Steve still manages to ricochet his shield around the arena to disrupt Strider so his body could be piledrived by the Corrupted Avenger.
Then there is the highlight. Ryu versus Cyclops. The Legendary Warrior and the Iconic Mutant in the wildest crossover battle most have never dreamt. Their fists collide in an even matchup, with a powerful side kick from Ryu being caught by Scott who optic blasts his foe far across the battlefield. Just as the X-Man follows that up with a cyclone kick, Ryu taps into his Hado Kakusei to both block his strike and blow him away with a powerful Shoryuken with ferocious ease. Still the corrupted champion lands on his feet to fire a Mega Optic Blast, clashing with Ryu's Shin Hadoken in a stunning struggle that neither fighter wants to lose.
Though there is one matchup that looks interesting, both in abilities and ideals. Xiaoyu versus Vision. Xiao avoids the robot's solar beam before managing to land a strong kick to the chest that knocks him aback. She keeps on comboing him then knocks him down, but the tides turn when her slamming attack phases through him and his hand phases into her body in order to weaken then laser her. Still, Xiao doesn't give up. Even though her attacks are losing their effectiveness and her body is aching, she keeps standing back up against the android's bewilderment.
"Why do you keep fighting? You are but flesh and bone. I am a machine. You cannot win." Corrupted Vision questioned her.
"You think I'm fighting for me? To save my own life? That's why you'll never win. I'm not fighting for me. I'm fighting for my friends! And that's something I heard you once understood, Vision!" Xiaoyu retorted whilst assuming her Phoenix Stance for her overwhelming Hakkesho Combo, smacking her foe with multiple X-like strikes that leads seamlessly into a flurry of other high-speed blows, roundhouse kicking then flipping over his body before landing a powerful double palm strike to his back that knocks aback quite a bit. "It's the very thing that makes us human." She scowls at her weakening opponent.
"…The heart…Heart…Heart…" repeated Vision, damaged while he once more tries fighting against the Sigma Virus in his systems.
Devil Trigger Dante was nearby when he heard what Vision repeated before he continues his duel with Xiaoyu. What he said might've sounded like nonsense from a damaged machine to most people, but Dante ain't most people. What he heard sounded like an important clue that correlates to Grimadoom's cryptic advice back in Makai. "So that's the key…" Dante muttered, continuing his fight with Captain Marvel while the others that aren't fighting Maverick Avengers fends off the countless Mavericks that won't stop surrounding them until they are all dead.
BGM End
Sigma's Lab, Abel City. Earth-30847 (Year 21XX).
BGM-Marvel Future Revolution OST-A.I.M. for the Future
While their friends are invading Xgard, Team Spidey was successful in their mission to infiltrate Sigma's old laboratory to finish the device. The Webslinger stands before a computer terminal displaying the blueprints of the device, an arm cannon designed for X that can harness up to four Exo Stones. "Alright, we're in business." Spider-Man claps his hands, glad to see they are finally making progress with the device.
"It's beautiful." Jill smiled, walking up to the Avenger's side.
"It'll be beautiful when it works." Spidey remarked. He then turns around to face Zero, Jin, and some Servbots that were also chosen for this mission, ordering them to, "Keep a lookout for Ultron Sigma's goons. Doom's magic should keep us hidden, but if it fails…Last thing we need right now is another fight with those guys."
"I couldn't agree more." A Servbot happily gestured.
Jill shoots a stern glance at the cross-armed Doctor Doom standing nearby, advising Spidey to, "Be careful.", before walking out of the lab alongside the others to guard the area.
BGM End
The smartest scientists in all dimensions are now alone. Spider-Man, Alia, Tron, and Doom. Only they have the brains to finally complete the experiment that will end Ultron Sigma's reign once and for all. Assuming the heroes can endure Doom's ego. After Alia presses a button that lights up the room, Spidey turns to their villainous ally saying, "Alright, let's work fast. So, what are we doing?"
"We? You three could not hope to comprehend such power." Doctor Doom claimed through his immense arrogance.
"Humor us." Tron shrugged.
"I shall phrase it in a way your feeble minds might understand." Doom retorted, approaching them like a menace that doesn't frighten them at all.
"Now, now, play nice." Spidey quipped.
"The Exo Stones share a single harmonic frequency. The device must be tuned to make them sing." Doom lectured his fellow geniuses.
"To amplify and regulate their power output." Alia commented.
"Indeed." Doom stated.
"See, that wasn't so hard." Spidey joked.
"I need only for the Genesis Stone to be in range, while the dyanactic interphase field chronocataclyzes. It will take but a few moments." Doom expressed.
"Uh, sure…You do that." Spidey responded, as that little lecture was a bit tougher to understand. While waiting for the device to be complete, the wallcrawler passes the time by sparking another conversation between scientists, "So, why aren't the rest of the Masters helping us? Thought you and Wesker were inseparable."
"Doom is more than enough to support your team in this final battle." Doom claimed.
"Doesn't exactly answer my question." Spidey quipped.
"A good leader should always have a backup plan prepared in the event the original strategy fails." Doom said while remaining vague on what the other Masters are doing at the moment.
"I know that. It's what helped us beat Loki back when he was drunk on Exo Stone power. I'm gettin' pretty good at this leader thing." Spidey boasted.
"Loki was nothing compared to the real danger that awaits us." Doom vaguely proclaimed.
"Once this baby's done, Ultron Sigma will also join the junkyard of lame baddies." Tron joked, gesturing at their semi-completed weapon.
"I was not referring to him. But to an enemy even greater." Doom claimed.
BGM-Transformers: Devastation OST-Operation Obliteration
It was then the heroes start taking his words seriously. A threat more powerful than Ultron Sigma sounded highly unlikely, and yet Doom is convinced there is a greater power working in the darkness. "What are you implying, Doctor?" The curious Alia asked the dictator.
Reminiscing on all that he knows thus far, about the Exo Stones, Ultron Sigma, and a certain Mad Titan, Doom tells a vague tale to the heroes, "I am not implying anything. My research is still incomplete. An unknown darkness…Ultron Sigma has been aware of this for some time. There is honesty within him. The 'nobility' of his mission. To upgrade both man and machine into a perfect hybrid form in order to usher in a new age of harmony for all life in the multiverse. But he has hidden intentions for us. A fear merged with him, burrowed into him. Something influenced him, driving him mad enough to seek the twisted pinnacle of evolution with us at his beck and call. He does intend to conquer all dimensions, but only after he destroys some singular entity awakened by the Exo Stones, something bent not just on destruction…but…OUR destruction. To claim what it believes to be rightfully theirs. And Ultron Sigma is just another piece in hastening its arrival. It's out there now, searching and destroying its way to our corner of reality…"
"This Multiversal War of ours…really called in a threat that could end everything?" Spidey grimly noted everything he heard from Doom's mouth.
"It appears so. Doom will deal with it when the time comes. Best you do not interfere, child. Only a true leader can save us from absolute extinction…" Doom mocks the webhead, claiming his leadership skills would be worthless against this Ultimate Evil.
"Wow. Ominous, much?" Tron snarked, not taking his warning too seriously while Peter looks worried that he may not be good enough when that ultimate battle comes.
BGM End
Back at Xgard…
BGM-Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order OST-The Fight Rages On
The crossover showdown is reaching its most marvelous conclusion yet. The Maverick soldiers are all but destroyed, and most of the Maverick Avengers lay in total defeat after a brutal struggle. Iron Man and Captain Marvel are among the survivors that still have plenty of fight left as they unleash a vicious energy barrage at the Nova Striking-Ultimate Armor X. Their combined power knocks down his invincible dash but was useless to stop Devil Trigger Dante from freezing them both with his Cerberus weapon, entrapping them in a crystal for Hado Kakusei Ryu to hurricane kick out of. Both would've hit Cyclops if he didn't jump in time and fire a Super Optic Blast that knocks back all three heroes.
"This party is getting crazy, and we haven't even reached the main event." Devil Trigger Dante joked, confronting the three Maverick Avengers standing before him.
"We've wasted enough time out here! We need to reach Ultron Sigma!" Ultimate Armor X proclaimed.
"You sure? Thought the plan was to buy as much time for the others." Dante questioned his order.
"We can't risk Ultron Sigma infecting our worlds again. And I rather not keep fighting heroes that have suffered enough. Let's take 'em out quickly, together! One by one, starting with Iron Man!" X ordered.
"Got it!" Hado Kakusei Ryu acknowledged, ready to finish this fight.
The three greatest heroes of their world finally team up to put down the Maverick Avengers starting with Iron Man. A Cross Charge Shot from X blows back everyone but Stark who is swiftly struck back by Ryu's Hadoken. Dante combos Stark from one side using Cerberus while X assaults him from the opposite side using a Charged Storm Tornado, weakening him as X shouts, "FULL POWER!", and uses his Nova Strike to launch him up and fly to his direction to push him, rotating the Armored Avenger to crush him into unconsciousness on the ground.
Only three Maverick Avengers left. Cyclops returns with a sweeping optic blast that trips up all three heroes in time for Captain Marvel to throw down a giant Asgardian statue above their heads. Ryu immediately reflects this with a Shoryuken to stun Carol, and while Dante blocks Scott's laser, X drops a Charged Frost Tower atop of Carol's head so she falls into Ryu's kick that sends her flying onto her fellow corrupted. This gives Dante the chance to quip, "Sleep well, baby!", and fire an overcharged magical shot from his dual pistols that finally takes down Captain Marvel.
Two more Maverick Avengers remain. Cyclops won't go down without a fight as he puts all of his Evolved power into his Mega Optic Blast that is unleashed on the heroes. All three warriors work together to halt the blast and struggle to push it back with all of their combined strength. It was nearly futile until X gets creative by Nova Striking through the beam itself to ram into the mutant then blind him with a Lightning Web. Summers is paralyzed, too powerless to stop Dante from assaulting him with multiple insanely fast Stingers that leaves him open for the finishing blow from Ryu. "Shin! Sho…" He shouted while striking his rival's midsection. "Ryu…" Followed up with another equally powered strike with the alternating fist. "KEN!" Which is then finished by a fully performed Shoryuken uppercut that utterly knocks out Cyber-Cyclops for good.
BGM End
"Hopefully that will wake him up a little." Ryu said to his defeated mutant rival.
Victorious, the heroic trio power down to their base forms as Dante smiles, "Whew! That's the last of them."
"No. There's still one Maverick Avenger left." X stated sternly.
BGM-Sonic X OST-Sonic's Fight
The last Maverick Avenger is Vision, still in the middle of an intense duel with Xiaoyu. Their battle is drawing to a close as the corrupted android throws her across the battlefield until a Petal Bursting Ruby catches her. The now pink auraed Petal Burst flies away from Vision's lasers until Ruby throws her dive kicking friend like a bullet that impacts his chest, sending him flying until he's stopped by Sonic's kick. His light-speed punches coordinate with Xiao's feet juggling Vision from above, taken to the next level once Ruby ascends the trio with a whirlwind. "My turn to take the spotlight, guys!" Xiao playfully sticks out her tongue before defeating Vision with one spectacular backflip stomp that smashes him hard to the ground.
BGM End
"That's it!" Sonic announced, declaring this final victory over the Maverick Avengers.
"I must…complete…objective…" Despite his loss, Vision refuses to surrender and wants to keep fighting. But against what? The virus that has all but corrupted him. Or the friends that still believe in him. This question confuses him thoroughly, with only Ruby stepping up to help him find the answer.
"Come on, Vision! Open your eyes! You're fighting for a monster that sees you nothing more than a tool! You're more than that! You have a SOUL, that cares deeply for his friends! If we lose here…if you lose to the virus…then our worlds are doomed! Don't give up! You never give up! And we won't give up on you!" Ruby reaches out to her robot friend.
Vision acknowledges her voice by preparing something with the Sigma Virus that has overwritten his coding. Strength from the depths of his soul is being harnessed to the max as the Android Avenger uses it to let out a mighty, "UUURRRAAAAAAAAAGH!" Seamlessly, the Evolution Power that was radiating off his body disappears along with his pink eyes that turn to their original gold color. He sits on his knees, exhausted, but with a clearer mind than ever before as he tells, "…Miss Rose…I hear you.", with a more human tone than the emotionless voice he was using throughout this adventure.
"Vision, is that really you?" Sonic questioned.
"Yes." Vision answered politely.
"How can we be certain?" Arthur asked cautiously.
"I'm not smellin' much of the virus from him as before. Seems you really are back, Vis." smiled Wolverine, offering a hand that his fellow Avenger is more than happy to accept in order to stand back up.
"Thanks to my friends." Vision smiled, while receiving a joyous hug from Ruby.
"That's amazing! I've never known anyone that can purge the Sigma Virus!" Axl commented on his new friend's incredible feat.
"I have not. I am simply suppressing the virus with all of my will." Vision clarified.
"That's still very impressive. We thought you were completely overtaken by the virus." Morrigan said.
BGM-Mega Man X8 OST-Advancement
"I will be again soon if we do not destroy Ultron Sigma. His destruction is the only means to delete the Sigma Virus from all of our systems. I can take you to him, but be warned. This is a battle we are unlikely to survive." Vision warned his friends that this final battle will be the toughest of their lives.
"We know. And we're ready. Win or lose, we'll see this fight to the end!" Wolverine proclaimed sternly, accepting whatever fate will have in store for him.
"Heroes! Arm your weapons and get into pairs of two! Blake! You're with me! We stop Ultron Sigma HERE AND NOW!" X rallied his forces with such hopeful energy that inspires them all to begin raiding Ultron Sigma Palace with everything they got.

Attention fellow Omega Flight Agents! I have downloaded the newest Marvel mobile game, Marvel Future Revolution, and I'm having a blast so far! If you also have the game, feel free to send a friend request to "KingFrancisX" and join my alliance under the name "UnitedHeroes" so we may have fun together! I'm usually in the "Sakaar 1" server room!
Remember: I have a forum page! Link can be found on my homepage or search for the "United Heroes Series" forums!
