This will be the home of the defunct first draft. I'm going to be posting it slowly over time instead of everything at once.
No one has ever really known when it happened, it just.. Well.. Happened. Sigma was finally defeated, and it seemed that this time was the final time. X and Axl hurriedly exited Sigma's fortress. You may notice that I left out Zero's name there.. That's true. The self-destruct signals were ringing in their ears as they ran, or as Axl ran, and X was pulled along by his partner. Tears were running down X's cheeks.. The first time he'd ever shown true emotion for his battle comrade, the first time he'd ever shed tears over his death. Zero had done it again.. He'd sacrificed himself again.. But only this time, he wouldn't be coming back, at the time anyways.. Just to keep his friends free from harms way, no.. Not only his friends.. The whole world this time. Doubtful of his own return, Zero made this decision on his own. Both X and Axl knew of the consequences, but neither were able to change his mind.
Zero had to remove himself from the game.. He had to remove himself from the battle.. Remove himself from the war.. From their lives.. From the future.. He had to self-destruct himself to keep Sigma from returning. Zero was the original carrier of a virus, that later inhabited Sigma.. Sigma's systems then converted the virus into the Sigma Virus, a much more deadly version of the Maverick Virus. Zero's systems were the only ones able to combat the virus and neutralize it long enough to destroy it.. And Zero. He forced X and Axl from the room, Axl having to half-drag X out of Sigma's fortress. And Zero did what had to be done.. He did what he knew he would have to do from the beginning. His self-destruct systems activated.. And there was no more Zero, or Sigma, or his fortress.
With the threat of Sigma finally extinguished, the humans realized.. Hey, we don't need the Reploids anymore! .. Reploids were too dangerous, even now. The Maverick virus could still reproduce out of a dormant carrier, and begin the reign of terror again. And start the entire process over again. And there was no Zero to save them this time.. No Zero.. The thought of him gone still brings tears to X's eyes.. Anyways.. The order was shipped out. 'All Maverick Hunters were to be deactivated, immediately.' Dr. Dan Cain, the descendant of Rupert Cain, had no say in this matter, he couldn't do anything to stop them.. The creator of the entire line of Reploids could do nothing but stand by and watch as each and every one was shut down or dismantled.. Or both at times.. It's a shame.. The humans believed, that with Sigma gone, the Reploids were more of a threat than anything else, even themselves, the Reploids HAD to be shut down. And so.. They were.. X.. Axl.. And almost the entire force of the Hunters.. They gave up willingly.. They had no reason to be around since Sigma was gone. What reason was there for Maverick Hunters to exist if there were no Mavericks?
And X.. X! OF ALL PEOPLE! He let this happen.. He let them.. And Signas too.. Our calm, calibrated leaders.. They let us down. They let those humans.. Deactivate us.. Almost all of us.. But us few, us.. The last remnants of a great race.. We got away.. We went into hiding, we found a way to survive without help.. We were alone.. Ahem.. Anyways.. Back to the story..
As soon as the last Reploid was shut down.. Though I believe the very last Reploid they got a hold of, was destroyed.. Peace reigned over the world. Human utopia was a visible ending, it seemed within their grasp. But.. Utopia is never truly possible. Sure.. It can last for awhile, but it won't truly linger on forever.. It had been a long time since a robot of any kind had been seen, centuries maybe.. The passage of time didn't really matter to us.. But we all believe it was centuries.. But professors, the descendants of the professors from our age, had been at it again. The government had kept the schematics on file, many had even forgotten of their existence there.. But they were there. The schematics of X.. Axl.. Even Zero.. Were on file in the government archives.. But only one man seemed determined to work his ideas and thoughts.. Into a reality.. A reality.. Where us Reploids, could be supreme again.. You'd think from the way I was talking about him, I had him in high-esteem, but no.. Dr. Sebastian, this Roboticist.. He wanted to do the one thing that couldn't be forgiven.. He wanted to bring back Sigma..
Dr. Sebastian, a famed and accomplished man in many fields.. But mostly in his designs and thoughts on many articles within the dying field of Roboticism.. He'd come to a conclusion, and one that would never leave his head, probably not until his dying day.. This would be the one thing he ever wanted.. If people wanted the Reploids back, then Sigma would have to also come back.. And he set to it.. With the help of his assistant, Claude Tage, he set about gathering the schematics of every form of Sigma used during his War. He also collected the schematics of many of the Mavericks under Sigma's rule and control. Sebastian had plans to bring back Sigma.. But not Sigma alone, no.. Never alone.. Sigma would have the entirety of the Repliforce under his thumb.
Dr. Faern, the great-great-grand-son of the fabled Dr. Amadeus Faern, had gotten news of Sebastian’s intent through his lab assistant, Enzan Tage.. The brother to Claude. Dr. Faern had decided to be the one to put a stop to this. He gathered as much of the necessary supplies as he could get his hands on; Metool armor, buster plans, beam saber designs, even some of the schematics and basic designs for some of the Robot Masters back during Mega Man's day.. He also got a hold of the original design for Mega Man and Proto Man. If Sebastian was going to bring back the Repliforce and Sigma.. Then Faern would begin the revival of the one group of Reploids capable of being able to put a stop to them for good.. Again.. The Maverick Hunters.
Even with all the necessary supplies, Doctor Christopher Faern was more than a few steps behind Doctor Robert Sebastian.. Sebastian had enough of the simpler Mavericks rebuilt, from Mets and Grenadiers to prototype designs of a few of the Robot Masters. While Faern only had a small force of Mets, and a half-built prototype version of Mega Man. The only thing Faern had successfully built was the Buster Pistol, a plasma pistol he made for the Police Force in case of emergencies.. But for this particular era, the pistol had to be redone.. And the Faern Buster Pistol Mk. II was created.. With the ability to fire different style shots, from a simple plasma shot, to a laser, to a charged shot.
This story.. No.. Our story begins now.. With Dr. Faern sending Enzan, the young assistant, to the ruins of the Maverick Hunter HQ.. Our once magnificent base now in ruins on the outside of the city. The Government archives never stated, in any of their files, that the Hunters had been dismantled.. Only that they had been shut down. So, if Faern was correct in his theory, the Hunters were still inside the HQ. Though the place was in shambles.. Though it never really wasn't.. Not even Signas could keep this place organized, hehe.. There might be a slight chance that they, we, had survived the years. Enzan's job.. His mission.. Was to find them, or us, and bring us back to Faern's lab.. And be fixed.. What Enzan found there isn't what anyone had ever expected.. But.. This is how it starts..
