Roleplay:Vile's Rampage (COMPLETED!)

Vile's Rampage is a roleplay based in the continuity Maverick Hunter X, created by XxZekeKnightxX and RayxCreamMaker, and is a direct sequal to The Ladies of Giga City, this time focusing on the archrival of the protagonist: Vile the Weasel.

Synopsis
Vile the Weasel is the archrival of X the Hedgehog, and is as nortorious as X is famous. Many titles are placed upon him, such as "murderer" and "destroyer", among other things. Vile does not care for things that are "moral", or "just", unlike X. Despite his differences with X and his reputaion, Vile is shrouded in mystery. The question is not "what" he does. The real question, is why? How can a soul become as wicked as his? The truth is, Vile is on a self-assigned mission to complete, and he's running out of time. What is this mission? What will it take to complete it? This critical chapter of Maverick Hunter X has such answers.

As a peaceful time comes to pass, villains and heroes alike conspire about the future. A paradign shift takes place, as the "evil one" uncovers the truth about the true villains.

Prologue: Survivors and Ploys
Vile: -marching across a barren wasteland, and finds what appears to be an abandoned base- Hmm... I could use this... If what was said is true... I'll need to come up with a game plan. If Sigma is truly returning, then I'll have to be ready... -rushes inside the base, and finds what appears to be a control room- Hmm... This would work out well to be a base of operations, but first I must activate this place... Hmm... -searches around for the power supply-

Meanwhile, at the Hunter Base...

Cut Man: (shooting Rolling Cutters at Mavericks in training sessions)

Gate: (looking on intently)......

Cut Man: HIYAAA!!! (finishes up) Alright! That's it for today!

Gate: Not your best, Cut Man....your overall percentage today was 55%. You normally do better than this.

Cut Man: Oh yeah?! Well why don't ya come down here so I can show ya the other 45%!?

Gate: I'll pass, thanks...

Zero: How about you give the full 100% so we won't need to have the conversation?

Cut Man: Grrr.....

Axl: Hey, Cut Man's tryin' his best. He's just got a, uh...certain someone stuck on the brain and can't concentrate.

Cut Man: (blushing) What was that?!

Signas: Cut Man, calm down. You did well.

Cut Man:.....

Time Man: Hmph.

Zero: ...Axl, you can't hide anything from me. I do know what that's like, but that should be all the more reason to fight harder in my opinon.

Cut Man: I AM TRYING HARDER!!!

Gate: Not hard enough. (walks away)

Zero: Hmph. -follows Gate-

Cut Man: (I'll show him....)

Geneva: Poor Cut Man....

Time Man: (silently nods) Personally, I blame your--

Cut man: (appeares next to him) Don't....finish....that....

Time Man:......

4:29 P.M. - MAVERICK HUNTER BASE - MAIN CONTROL ROOM

Nana: (still working hard)

Alia: Hmm... -appears to have found something on a map and is investigating it- What is this...?

X: (walks in) What is it Alia?

Smokescreen: (phases through) Somethin' up?

Alia: I'm picking up a signal from the wasteland here, like a base or something... But the only place there that is capable of producing such a signal is an abandoned outpost that has been shut down for about a decade now.

X: Maverick activity, no doubt....

Alia: Then let me pose this question. What would a Maverick be doing in the middle of nowhere like this?

X: Because the Maverick's name is Vile the Weasel.

Nana: Are you sure Vile would try a derserted place?

X: No doubt.

Alia: X, I think I lost you... Why would a Maverick like Vile be at a place like that? He's more likely to show up here than out in the middle of nowhere...

X: He's a calculating and sly Maverick. We've underestimated him one time too many! I'm going in and taking him down.

Pallette: No!!

X:...?

Pallette: I-I mean....what Alia said.

X: (looks suspiciously)

Alia: It's not like he can man it by himself. And the only one who has partnered with him is reformed. There's only so much one can do on their own. Honestly, even if he's there, I don't understand why he would take over an abandoned, run-down outpost when he has the power to take over a state-of-the-art Repliforce base.

X: I'm going to find out.

Nana: X, it's not advisable! Besides. what if it's a regular Mobian?

X: That's a chance I may have to take, but if it is, I'll only subdue them, not hurt or kill them....

Nana: Even so, it's not wise to--

Alia: -turns toward X in her chair and crosses one leg over the other- X, are you so high-strung about Vile because of I's encounters with him?

X: It's not that....Vile's a danger to not just us, but the world. If I don't stop him now, then there'll no one to stop him later....

Pallette: But--

Alia: ...You say something, Pallette?

Pallette:.....I'll go there.

Smokescreen: Whoawhoawhoawhoawhoawhoa! You seriously wanna go to an abandoned warehouse and get killed by that maniac again?! Axl'll never forgive himself if that happened again.

Pallette: I know what I'm doing Smokescreen!

Alia: You seem sure of yourself...

Pallette; I am....

Nana: Just to be sure....we should plant a small tracker on you so we can see and hear everything that goes on.

Pallette:......You're joking, right?

Alia: Hmm...

Nana: (plants a tracker onto Pallette) Just don't try anything funny.

Pallette: Now I see why Layer was never too fond of you....

Alia: ...How about we try something a bit more covert? I don't think Vile will be willing to open up to someone he sees as an enemy, or associated with his enemy. -glances at X and turns back to her console, and starts on a program- How about if one of us acted like an AI for the computer systems of the outpost?

Pallette: (nods)

Alia: The problem is, we can't act organic when talking to Vile... We need to make him think it's just an AI and not someone trying to manipulate him. I can write the program, and I can probably do the job well, but he may recognize my voice...

Nana: And mine as well....we need someone that he either doesn't know or recognizes as an ally....

Alia: The problem is, who does he recognize as an ally?

Everyone: Hmmm.......

Pallette: (tries to sneak away while she thinks no one else is noticing)

Zero: -is bumped into by Pallette- HEY! Watch where you're going!

Pallette: S-sorry....(rushes off)

Nana: Hmm...

Zero: -looks in the direction she ran, then looks back- ...Alright, spill it. What's going on?

Nana: We think Vile may be up to something around....(points to the energy signature) Here. Though I do not know what or why quite yet.

Zero: Well that's strange. It's in the middle of nowhere with only a derelict outpost that was shut down over a decade ago because the area became so desolate, it lost its strategic value. There's a newer outpost that doubles as a ferry port to Giga City a few hundered kilometers away that replaces that old thing. The only reason why someone, let alone Vile, would want with a place like that is to set up shop for a longer battle.

X:......Where's Pallette?

Nana: (starts tracking the tracking device she planted on her; notices Pallette is heading in the direction of the outpost) Why does this not surprise me?

Zero: ...It surprises me. X, I know what you want to do, and I'm telling you now, don't go after her. I have a bad feeling about Vile's behavior, and if you interfere, we'll never know why he's acting like this.

X:.....Alright. Maybe then I can figure out how to stop him.....

Nana: You've changed X. Normally, you would think twice before engaging Mavericks--even Vile--but since the Giga City operation....

X: I've finally come to realize this war will never end the way I acted, I need to toughen up and finally come to terms with the realization I need to not hold back, especially not against Vile!

(just then the alarm goes off)

Nana: Maverick readings detected near Daytona Beach!

Flame Hyenard: BEACH?! WOO HOO!! TIME FOR SOME SCRAPPIN!!!! (runs off)

Smokescreen: (sighs) Same ol' Hyenard....

Nana: Armadillo, do you copy?

Armored Armadillo: I copy. Moving to intercept now.

Zero: X, listen. I think there's something more than Vile going on here. Vile is the type that wanders about, never staying at one place. If Vile is taking over an outpost, then that means he must know something. If I were in his place, the only reason why I would do such a thing, is that I knew something big was coming, and I would need to settle down and set up shop at a place where I can get information. I think Vile is looking for something, or someone, and it isn't you. The time will come where we won't have to hold back, but now, we must.

X:.....Very well.

Chapter 1: Opening Up
Pallette: (running to the outpost)

Vile: -finally has the place operational- Urgh... Well then, now just gotta find where the rest of that Supra-Force Metal went... If I find it, I'll find Sigma... Perhaps a working refinery that's not under Repliforce control would be a good place to look....

Pallette: (sneaks in by good stealth, trying not to be detected)

Vile: At least I have access to some satallite imagry... -works on the main console- Hmm... Now where would be a place that'll be moving a ton of equipment...?

Pallette:.....(accidentally kicks a piece of scrap, blowing her cover) Oh scrap.

Vile: !? -whirls around and aims his cannon in the direction of where he heard the sound- Who's there?!

Pallette: (slowly comes out) Hi Vile....

Vile: ...Huh? Y-You... -remembers what happened on the space station after Great Redips died- What is this, some sort of prank? I don't have time for nonsense like that!

Pallette: No. I've been brought back by the Maverick Hunters, but I snuck out....to talk to you.

Vile: That's just too bad, because I'm really busy. -turns back to the console- So stay out of my way or get blasted.

Pallette: Vile....you don't need to face him on your own. I can help you, y'know.

Vile: -stops instantly upon hearing "him", and tenses up in anger- ...What do you know...?

Pallette: Everything. Lemme help you, Vile.

Vile: -whirls around on her- "Everything"?! How?!

Pallette: When I was a Cyber-Elf, I looked into your heart....and saw everything you had to endure....if he's coming back, then--

Vile: You got it all wrong! He never left, I left him! I wasn't strong enough to defeat him, but after defeating Sigma and X, I know I will! If I can overcome them, I can overcome him, and will be nobody's damn slave!

Pallette: But you can't--

(just then an alarm goes off)

Vile: What now?! -turns back to the console-

Pallette: It's his creations.....and Sigma's minions too....

Vile: Sigma... I figured as much. Let's challenge his Undeadness. -rushes over to the teleporter-

Pallette: Vile, wait--!

Vile: Now what's your problem?!

Pallette: Lemme help ya-

Vile: Just stay out of my way if you don't want to get blasted! -teleports off-

Pallette: (heads off to the control panel) He'll need help......

5:22 P.M. - CENTRAL HIGHWAY

READY!!

Vile: Hmph. Let's do this. -dashes forward, brutally destroying enemies, some barehanded-

Pallette: (through intercom) Vile, can youn hear me? I'll be your navigator through here....if that's alright with you....

Vile: -grumbles- If you insist...just don't distract me... -kicks a Met aside-

Met: Asshole!

(a few Sniper Joes line up in front of him)

Sniper Joes: Hey, it's Vile! Blast him!

Vile: Blast this, bolts for bots! -jumps over them, shooting them with his cannon from above-

Sniper Joes: AAAHH!!!!

Pallette: Jets incoming at 2 o'clock!

Vile: -activates jetpack and flies up toward the jets and lays down a wall of energy shots from his cannon to destroy them before falling back down to kick down a lone Sniper Joe-

(then several reploids bearing a familiar insignia appear)

Pallette: Those are--

Vile: -growls- Sigma...!! -proceeds to beat them down, taking extra thought in breaking their bodies- So he has returned... But I'll make him stay dead!

Pallette: Vile....behind you....

(two strange beings appear behind Vile)

Bit: So you're Vile? What a joke.....

Byte: The Doc really screwed up big time with you!

Vile: -turns to them menacingly- ...You say something, punks?'

Bit: I am Bit, and he is Byte. We're Dr. Doppler's enforcers and have come to eliminate you!

Byte: (cracks knuckles) I'm gonna enjoy this!

Vile: -clenches his fists and tenses up upon hearing "Dr. Doppler"- ...I don't care why you're here, I'll scrap you all the same, but since you've mentioned that name... -turns fully toward them- I'll show you hell! -instantly starts blasting them with his cannon-

Bit: (pulls out a large shield to block and deflect attacks)

Byte: (takes the blasts, but just barely affected)

Vile: (Damn! If only I still had my other weapons...but those fragments didn't fully protect me and they were destroyed in the process... This might be a challenge after all...) Hmph! -dashes at Bit to perform a double kick to kick away his shield and then kick Bit away before proceeding to jumping kick to Byte's head-

Byte: OOF!! (suddenly grabs him and throws him into a tanker)

Bit: Ngh...hehehe....

Vile: -comes out barely harmed, mainly having cosmetic damage- Hmph. Not bad. (it appears I have speed and attack advantages on them, but being able to tank my attacks is something only he could create...) -dashes at them again, winding up behind Bit to grab him and throw him at Byte's head-

Bit: HUH?! GAAAH!!!

Byte: (smashes through his partner but trips over a grenade and blasts back)

Bit: We underestimated you Vile. Like you underestimated us! But we'll be back, and you won't be able to beat us next time!

(Bit and Byte leave as weird new sports cars appear, turning into new Mavericks)

Pallette: Huh?! Those must be new ones, I don't see them anywhere in the database!

Vile: Cowards... I don't care what they look like, I'll rip them apart all the same! -dashes at them and begins to dismantle them his cannon blasts and martial strikes-

Vehicons: !? AAAAHH!!!! (some start blasting at him)

Vile: -evades and even forces some of them to shoot each other- Hmph!

Vehicons; GAAAH!!!

Pallette: They may look menacing, but they don't look too bright....

Vile: Menacing? These are pathetic excuses for scapegoats. -chokes out the last one then dashes onward-

WARNING!! WARNING!!

(X appears down in front of him)

X: Vile! What are you doing here?!

Pallette: X?! What is he doing?

Vile: Today's your lucky day, X! I'm not hunting for you today! I've got a date with Sigma, because apparently you didn't roast him enough! I'll just be finishing the job!

X: Ha! As if you have a chance against Sigma! You couldn't even beat me at his fortress! And you had your stupid Ride Armor!

Vile: What's this? Are you mocking me? And to think this is the noble X that made me sick! Or maybe it's because Sigma has finally made you his slave? Talk about a pathetic end!

X: How's this?! (fires a charged shot)

Vile: -blasts it with a shot from his cannon- Alright, since you insist, I'll put on a good show before I crush that face of yours! -whips out buster and starts showering X with surpressive fire-

X: GAAAH!!!!

Vile: (...This is too easy.) -follows up with several cannon shots-

X: AAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(X's figure glows and turns into a Next-Generation Reploid, who dies immediatly)

Pallette: Just a copy. Why am I not surprised?

Vile: I figured as much... -notices that it left behind a strange chip and baton-like item, and picks both up- Wonder what these are?

Pallette: Head back and I'll prepare an analysis. Maybe I can determine what it is....

Vile: If you insist... -teleports out-

6:29 P.M. - VILE OUTPOST - MAIN CONTROL ROOM

Pallette: (analyzing them) Hmm....looks like these are for a copy system. When Gate revived you, he outfitted you with components from Next-Gen Reploids. The chip will allow you to copy abilities, and the baton can let you copy weapons.

Vile: I see. -takes the baton- How the heck do I use it though... -suddenly, the baton glows and becomes the hilt to a Chaosblade- Hmm... -activates it- Heheh... This is the tactical advantage I needed... -chuckles to himself-

Pallette:.....

(just then, a tall Reploid appears behind them)

Pallette: !? Soundwave!

Soundwave:....(approaches the console, pushing Pallette aside; tentacles from behind him appear and attach to the computer and some data is uploaded; the tentacles then detach and retract as he looks at Vile)

Vile: Huh? Soundwave...? -looks at the computer, and at Soundwave, confused and dumbfounded-

Soundwave: (presses a button on the console and then teleports away)

(a transmission from a familiar face appears)

Sigma: Vile....long time, no see....

Vile: Apparently not long enough! What do you want?

Sigma: I've had Soundwave send this message to you. I have been extremely impressed by you Vile and wish to ask you to join my side again. But before you can, I need to test your abilities. Soundwave has downloaded coordinates to 8 of my commanders. If you defeat them and impress me enough, I will invite you to my arctic outpost in the North Pole to test you....personally. I hope you don't disappoint me....

(the message ends)

Pallette: I have a bad feeling about this...

Vile: ...Hmph. As if. Joining him means getting killed by X. Besides, it seems as if both of my former masters have conspired against me...they will die. -clenches the baton-

Pallette: Vile....they were using you all along. You don't need to worry about them anymore. You're--

Vile: As long as they live I have to worry about them! I don't care if X lives or dies, as long as I am the undisputed victor, but them...I must make them pay for making me their slave!

Pallette:......(holds his hand) Well, I'll be here to help you. No matter what.

Vile: Wha-?! ...This is a joke, right? Something stupid that X thought up isn't it?

Pallette: (shakes head) X wants you dead as much as you want him dead. This is genuine. I promise.

Vile: -looks away, as if embaressed- ...Why, then? Why go this far when all your friends want to see my smoldering chassis which has killed you before?

Pallette: (blushes a little bit) Because they don't really know you....I do...

Vile: ...Maybe that's why I haven't killed you again yet... All this time, nobody knew...but I thought that nobody needed to know, because this was my problem after all...

Pallette: You don't need to be alone anymore....I promise....(gently smiles)

Vile: Hmph... If you insist...

Pallette: (smiles)

MEANWHILE, AT MAVERICK HUNTER BASE....

Nana: Wow...

Zero: ...I'm at a loss for words.

Alia: Oh my...

X:......

Zero: -grumbles- What does she know? And why-- -looks at X- ...Nevermind, I think I know why she didn't tell us.

X: Are they really truthful about this? I still can't believe that Vile was only just a misunderstood Reploid after all he's done....

Nana: People change, X. I think Vile should be given a chance to prove himself.

X: Maybe....

Zero: There's no excuses for what he's done, but at least now we know why he does the things he does, and why he talks the way he does. Pallette didn't tell us what she knows because she's afraid of us, what we would say or do. X and Axl more so.

Nana: Yeah, Axl still wants to get even. And as for X....(looks at X, who is now leaving outside)....

Zero: ...Maybe X and Vile are not so different after all...

Smokescreen: Guess not....

Chapter 2: Factoring Intense Heat
7:55 P.M. - ABANDONED OUTPOST - MAIN ROOM

Vile: -looks at the commanders that he has before him, noticing that they're most of them are the former commanders that rebelled with Sigma- So, these idiots are back from the grave also, are they? -pays particular interest to Flame Mammoth- I know just who to start with too... -chuckles to himself-

Pallette: Just be careful. X barely made it out alive from him, and I don't want you to get hurt so badly.

Vile: It just so happens that I was a sparring partner for him while I was still a Hunter. Well, more like the only one who would spar with him. Just gotta show him again, that size doesn't mean much. Good test subject for my new toys. -selects the location and heads for the teleporter-

Pallette: Good luck.

READY!!

Vile: -teleports in- Hmph, let's go. -dashes forward to proceed-

Pallette: The weapons plant is operating at full capacity, and there's molten lava nearby, so be careful!

Vile: Nah, really? I thought it was water, and I was thinking about taking a dip! -trips a Sniper Joe into the lava-

Sniper Joe: AAAH!!!

Pallette: Blame Alia, she's the real Captain Obvious....

Degravers: !? Vile! Let's get him!

Vile: -chuckles- Time to give this thing a test drive! -brandishes his saber and hacks them apart-

Degravers: GAAAHH!!!!

Hoganmer: (attacks him with its mace)

Vile: -stabs the mace, then kicks the Hoganmer aside- Hmph!

Hoganmer: HEY!! I JUST POLISHED THAT!

Vile: That's the least -of your worries today! -cuts him vertically in half-

Vehicon: This one's too tough! Call in the tanks!

(Vile feels large stomps and sees a much larger tank-like Vehicon coming his way)

Vehicon Tank: SHIELD MODE ACTIVE! CHARGING CANNON! YOU WON'T LIVE LONG ENOUGH MORE!!

Vile: Hard to aim a cannon when you're not even looking! -blasts the cannon with his own to force its orientation up, then stabs at the head between the cannon barrel and the shield-

Vehicon Tank: (still standing upright, shield up)

Vile: Heh, still don't want to go down, eh? -climbs up on top of it and starts hammering its top by blasting it with his cannon- (I can't use the Supra-Force Metal's energy... I don't know how long I have left...)

Vehicon Tank: (finally loses its position, but starts blasting away at Vile)

Vile: Whoa there, tiger! -slips up close to it and starts blasting its face with his cannon-

Vehicon Tanks: AAAHH!!! (falls off a conveyor belt and into the lava)

Vehicon Car #1: The tankbot's failed!

Vehicon Car #2: Retreat! We must report this to Lord Megatron!

(The Vehicons escape as Vile rushes through to the boss door)

WARNING!! WARNING!!

(Flame Mammoth is there waiting for Vile)

Flame Mammoth: Vile... It's been a while, hasn't it? You've changed your look too, but yet you're still small.

Vile: Yeah, going through death and back is an experience. By the way, you've been schooled many times about that, size never matters.

Flame Mammoth: C'mon, Vile! I'm much more powerful than I was before!

Vile: Too bad, because I've also gotten more powerful. Let me show you!

Flame Mammoth: Just like old times, right?

Vile: Except that you're really going to die this time! -starts blasting Flame Mammoth's head with cannon-

Flame Mammoth: OOF! -tries to blast Vile with flames-

Vile: -evades and baton glows for a second- (Huh?)

Flame Mammoth: Get back here! -tries to chase him down, shooting his flamethrower-

Vile: Nah, not feeling it. -jumps toward the side and blasts Flame Mammoth's legs with cannon-

Flame Mammoth: GAAAH! You have gotten better, but how about my oil?! -starts shooting oil at Vile from his trunk-

Vile: -jumps and kicks off a wall- No thanks, I don't feel like getting slobbered on! -takes up his baton and it transforms into a rifle-like version of Flame Mammoth's flamethrower- (Aah, this I'll enjoy!)

Flame Mammoth: C'mon Vile, it's a fine day for a little oilin'! -about to shoot more oil-

Vile: How about, no? -shoves the end of his flamethower up into Flame Mammoth's trunk, and blasts fire up his trunk as Flame Mammoth sends oil through his trunk-

Flame Mammoth: Wh-Wh-WHAAAA?! -his trunk explodes, sending him into the wall hard- OOOOOF!!!

Vile: -also blown back, but not as much, expecting the explosion- Hah! Now let's finish you! -flamethrower turns into saber as he charges at Flame Mammoth-

Flame Mammoth: -tries to get up, dazed from the explosion- Uuuugh... Wha...?

Vile: -shoves his saber up into where Flame Mammoth's trunk was, then yanks down hard, cutting through his entire body-

Flame Mammoth: WAAAAARRRRGH!!!! -explodes violently with a powerful concussion blast-

Vile: -is sent into a wall from the blast- NGH!!

Pallette: Vile! Ae you okay?! Vile, do you copy?!

Vile: -laughs- You worry frantically when I get a little roughed up by a wall, yet you say nothing when I land on a tanker? C'mon, these are nothing to me, I'm fine. Start worrying when I crash down from orbit! -teleports out-

Pallette: I.....I'm sorry.....

Vile: Now you're apologetic? -laughs- This is what I call "fun"! Kicking ass and taking names! -goes over to the console- I'll never understand you hero-types...

Pallette: Yet you almost were one yourself....

Vile: Talkin' 'bout Redips? Like I could sit by and look at a bot that could be stronger than me? Yeah right! Hero, villain, stupid labels that people use. I just do what I want, when I want, how I want. Sigma can't do scrap about it!

Pallette: That's not what I meant. I meant way before when.....(looks down, not even finishing, thinking he knows what she means)

Vile: -mood suddenly turns cold- ...When I left?

Pallette: (shyly nods; then changes the subject) One down, seven to go.

Vile: -nods, then mutters- Then I'll have to end this game, fast.

Pallette: (hears him).....

MEANWHILE, AT MAVERICK HUNTER BASE....

Nana: It's very sweet of Pallette to do this.....

Alia: She is doing well, despite the risk factor...

Zero: -spacing out, concentrating on his own thoughts-

X: (nods; takes a look at Alia, staring when he thinks no one else is looking) (Reminds me of how I feel of Alia....)

Zero: -takes notice, then smirks- Hey X, I think I hear Cutty-kid flirting with I again.

X: HUH?! Why that little--! (runs off, yelling for Cut Man)

Nana:.....You're not a good liar, Zero.

Zero: Doesn't take one to get that blue bomber going. -chuckles-

Nana:......Alia, X was staring at you. (smirks)

Alia: Eh? -blushes- N-No, no, you must be mistaken, he's not that type of guy...

Zero: Pfffft, you don't know him when you're not around...

Nana: Alia, you do like him, right?

Alia: I-I don't really think about those kind of things...

Zero: -smirks- I guess this has become a girls-only coversation, so I'll just go face the music, and completely embaress X. -chuckles and walks where X went-

Nana: Alia, I know how you feel about X, why do you not tell him?

Alia: B-Because...I don't think we can support such a relationship...we both have our duties, and we think very highly of them... And, X has become such a huge target...something like that may jeapordize his well-being...

Nana: You'll never know unless you try....right?

Alia: Making the mission too personal could compromise our effectiveness... I'd rather not take such a risk...

Nana: I....understand.....

Chapter 3: Blastin Cyber Space
8:43 PM - ABANDONED BASE - MAIN ROOM

Vile: Hmm... Looks like there are some new faces as well... Where's the bird-brain and iron-butt? Or that squaking penguin for that matter?

Pallette: Chill Penguin faked death and formed his own band of bounty hunters called Team Chill-Out. Storm Eagle and Armored Armadillo are Maverick Hunters now.

Vile: They couldn't stomach the carnage, eh? Hmph, pathetic.

Pallette: Storm Eagle only joined Sigma because of hostages, and Armadillo was just blindly loyal. I honestly still don't see what she sees in him....

Nana: (growls) Oh, I'll show her one day!

Signas: Nana, calm it.

Nana:.........

Pallette: Cyber Peacock appears to be in Cyber Space. I'll need to make adjustments to the teleporter to get to him.

Vile: Sounds like some cyber-junk to me... -walks over to the teleporter and leans against a wall- What a nuisance...

Pallette: (begins making some modifications)

Vile: -puts his hand on his chest- (How long will the Supra-Force Metal last, before I'll have to rely on my core again...? I can't risk losing precious time...)

Pallette: (notices something is troubling him)

Vile: -crosses his arms- Well? Are you done yet?

Pallette: S-sorry....you just seem troubled...I feel worried...(keeps working)

Vile: Hmph. It's nothing. -looks away-

Pallette: Don't lie. I can see it in your, uh...visor.

Vile: So what if I am? It doesn't concern you.

Pallette: (sighs) I told you, that I'll be here for you no matter what, and I meant it. I want to help you at every turn and in every way. But there's some things about you that I really don't know. So tell me....what's wrong? Please?

Vile: ...I'm running out of time, now hurry up! -growls-

Pallette: (gasps and hurries up) There! It's done!

Vile: ...I'll explain later. -rushes into the teleporter and teleports off-

Pallette: (resumes her duties)

READY!!

Vile: -teleports in- Stupid cyberspace... Let's get this over with. -proceeds-

(he steps on a panel and some laser target appears on him)

Sigma: (voice heard from the air) Vile, you have stepped in a cybernetic training ground. I want to see how well you do and how fast you can do it.

Vile: Oh, please! Get that bot to a repair room, I don't have time for this! -dashes, not wasting time-

(several cyber enemies and Mavericks appear to hinder his progress)

Vile: Get lost! -hacks them apart with his saber as he moves forward- Hmph, now I know why Zero likes swords so much.

Pallette: Do not forget the copy chip as well. Try mixing it up a little.

Vile: I would if I could. -flies over several enemies with jetpack-

(as he continues, he enters through a small portal and then into the boss door)

WARNING!! WARNING!!

(Cyber Peacock teleports in)

Sigma: (voice heard) Allow me to introduce you to my personal hacking chief and creator of our new spy, planted within the Repliforce--Cyber Peacock!

Cyber Peacock: -cackles- Pleasure to meet you at last, Vile! How's that old ticker? Can you spare some time for me? Or do you not have the time? Nyahahahaha!

Vile: Buzz off! I don't need to explain anything to you!

Cyber Peacock: That's true, you don't. Besides, why waste your precious time on me? I wonder what things will look like when your time does run out?

Vile: Shut up and fight! -charges at him, swinging his saber-

Cyber Peacock: -teleports around to evade-

Vile: Oh, you're so cute! -transforms saber into flamethrower and torches him the instant he next appeared-

Cyber Peacock: DAAAH!! -shoots lasers at VIle-

Vile: -evades with jetpack and torches Cyber Peacock again without warning-

Cyber Peacock: GAAAWWK!! -teleports and fires more lasers-

Vile: -takes a few hits- Ngh! How about this? -transforms flamethrower into another launcher, and visor glows blue, activating copy chip and teleports above him, and dumps oil onto him, then follows up with his flamethrower, roasting Cyber Peacock-

Cyber Peacock: GAAAAAAWWWWK!!!

Vile: You're finished, cyber trash! -teleports in front of Cyber Peacock and uses his saber to cut him in half-

Cyber Peacock: GAAAAAAAAWWWWK!!! Hahah... No... You're the one who's finished...! -causes a digital explosion from himself that starts to engulf the area-

Vile: What the?! Kamakaze...! -teleports out-

Pallette: Vile! You're okay! But--

Vile: I'm fine. Even got a useful ability off of that cyber trash. He was good for something.

Pallette: I heard what he said....the Supra Force Metal is wearing off....isn't it?

Vile: -sighs- It's not that it's wearing off completely, but yes, it's wearing out as I use it...to stay alive... That tank, I could've destroyed it much sooner had I used energy from the Supra-Force Metal to break through it, but that would be wasting my lifeline...

Pallette: Which is fading so much faster.....(looks worried)

Vile: The thing is, I don't know how fast the Supra-Force Metal is wearing off... It should last me for a few years at least... But I can't waste any of it unless I absolutely have to.

Pallette: I don't want you to die, Vile....I'm scared that--

Vile: It may be better that way! -turns away- I was created to be a monster and a monster I became! That's why I have to make my enemies pay before I die for good...

Pallette: Vile....

MEANWHILE, AT MAVERICK HUNTER BASE....

X: (still running trying to find Cut Man, suddenly overhears a conversation between I and Cut Man)

I: Cut Man... I'm sorry, you're a sweet guy and all, but I don't like you that way...

Cut Man: !? B-but I--

X:...

I: -shakes her head- I'm not ready for something like that. I've got and had enough to deal with.

Cut Man: O-okay.....I'll respect your decision. Maybe one day....you'll find someone better. But...we're still friends, right?

I: Of course.

Cut Man: (smiles)

X:...(I hope I finds a good person too....)

LATER....

X: (enters the control room)

Nana: Unbelievable...

Alia: X... You won't believe what we just heard...

Nana: Vile's core is dying out. That's why he needed the Supra-Force Metal.

X: It is?!

Zero: Signas yanked me back in here for this. Vile said that he has a few years at least with the Supra-Force Metal keeping him alive, but he's not sure how fast it's dissipating. That's why he can't use it for combative purposes.

Alia: It's like he's on life-support...yet still can fight...

X:..........

Zero: It's sad... Pallette said that she doesn't want him to die...yet...Vile said that it might be better that way...

X:.....Maybe she was right. Maybe Vile isn't as evil as he makes us believe.....

Zero: Correction. As evil as he thinks he is. He also said that he was created to be a death machine, and became one he did.

X: But...he isn't....and Pallette's helped us see that....

Zero: You and him aren't too much different...just had different origins and had different paths set before you...

X: (nods)

Chapter 4: The Vile Jungle
Pallette: Ready for the next challenge?

Vile: Who's up?

Pallette: (shows the remaining six Mavericks)

Vile: Aaahh... That scrap head... The idiot that almost made X go Maverick... He gets everyone pissed at him.

Pallette: Sting Chameleon?

Vile: I don't see why not. Better to shut him up quickly.

READY!!

Vile: -teleports in and starts off-

Pallette: During my run with the Maverick Hunters, I made a Ride Armor panel system. Do you see any platforms anywhere on the ground?

Vile: Ride Armor? Hmm...

Pallette: One platform allows you to utilize one of the ten developed Ride Armors. The Chimera Armor and Raiden Armor are the standard types you're quite used to; the Rabbit Armor and Kangaroo Armor have spikes for fists and can be used to deal heavy amounts of damage to enemies; the Frog Armor hops around, but is best recommended for underwater usage; the Hawk and Eagle Armors are good for airborne combat, complete with blasters; the Raiden II Armor is a four-legged monster with drill and fist for melee; the Gouden Armor is slow but durable with great machinegun weaponry; finally, the Cyclops Armor has a shoulder cannon and typical melee fists. Pick your poison, sweetie. (does not realize she just said that)

Vile: ...What was that last word?

Pallette: (realizes what she said and blushes tenfold) Uhhhh.......nothing!

Vile: Right... -mumbles- For the first time, I officially feel awkward...

Pallette:....I am so fired.

(everyone at Hunter Base is absolutely shocked at what just happened)

Nana: Did...she just....?

Alia: Sh-She did...

Zero: Stupid girl! What is she thinking?!

X: We're lucky Axl's not here to see or hear this.

Axl: (walks in) Hear or see what?

Smokescreen: Scrap....

Zero: ...Pallette's brain left the building.

Axl: (shoots him with the Bound Blaster) What was that you said?!

Zero: -deflects it back at him with saber- Her brain left the building.

X: Axl...(tells him what happened)

Axl:..........WWHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

X: I was afraid of this....

Mavericks: (patrolling the jungle)

Vile: -ambushes them by teleporting to them and slashes them apart with saber-

(several Rock-based Mavericks appear down to attack)

Pallette: Rockmen! I thought they went extinct 3 years ago.

Vile: Too bad, because they're going extinct today! -blasts them with cannon and a new laser blaster-

(easily blasted apart; Vile comes across a marsh with a convinient Ride Armor Platform nearby)

Pallette: A Ride Armor's needed to traverse through this swamp.

Vile: Now I know how X feels when Captain Obvious is on the mic... (Seriously... I can clearly see that I wouldn't have the hangtime to fly over it.) -heads over to the Ride Armor Platform-

Pallette: Nnnnno, you don't, hun. OOF!! (blushes even more) Sorry....I dunno what's come over me today!

Vile: ...I wonder... -mumbles- That kid is gonna be even more pissed at me for no scrappin' reason...

Axl: WH-WH-WH-WH-WHAT THE FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

X: Uh oh.....

Pallette: Which Ride Armor is best? Let's see....

Vile: How about telling me what other things are ahead, like things I can't see. At least try to be more useful than Captain Obvious...

Pallette: Sorry. It's been a long time since I've done navigation, I'm a little rusty....The Chimera Armor works well here, but you may need to keep jumping to avoid being sunk. There are also some enemies hiding in the marsh, so look out.

Vile: Hm. How about one of the flying ones to avoid the marsh altogether?

Pallette: Where's the fun in that? You're not afraid of some weak little enemies in a simple marsh, are you? (winks)

Vile: Cute, but not gonna work. The fun part is blasting helpless enemies while not needing to constantly needing to take attention away to jump. Getting sunk is not exactly on my agenda.

Pallette: So you are afraid of people who are tougher than you.....so are you even scared of X? (smirks playfully)

Vile: -laughs- Please! You little liar! You know for a fact that's not true! Can you not handle that I'm actually being smart? Wouldn't surprise me, because the kid is really stupid!

Pallette: Okay, suit yourself. Hawk Armor it is.

Vile: -gets in, and makes himself at home- Aahh... Feels good to be in one of these things again. Let's do this! -starts flying, and blasts enemies as they come near- Hmph! Like shooting fish in a barrel!

Pallette: Vile! Incoming bogeys! And they're airborne!

Vile: Still wanna laugh at me for taking a flyer? -flies up to them and blasts them-

Pallette: (giggles) Not at all....(What is wrong with me? Why do I feel weird talking to him? Am I....?)

Vile: (Why is she acting so weird? It's completely awkward, what's going on with that girl?) -lands on the other side of the marsh-

Pallette: Chameleon is straight ahead. I'm sure you know of his cheap and sly tactics, so I don't need to tell you to--

Vile: -hops out of the Ride Armor- Be careful, yeah yeah.

WARNING!! WARNING!!

(Sting Chameleon appears through thin air)

Sting Chameleon: NYA HAHAHAH!! Well if it isn't Vile! I once had so much respect for you, y'know!

Vile: Too bad that isn't reciprocated. You have a knack for pissing everyone off.

Sting Chameleon: Aww, don't feel bad! It's not like you were any good anyway! I lost that respect when I heard those rumors of those Doppler bots that you're really just as soft as X!

Vile: Soft?! ''Soft?! ''I'll show you soft, you piece of scrap!! -teleports behind Sting Chameleon and starts blasting him with cannon furiously-

Sting Chameleon: NYAAH!! (disappears)

Vile: -visor flashes blue, copying his ability- Thank you for falling into my trap... -engages his saber, and waits paitently for him to reappear-

Sting Chameleon: (appears on the ceiling, dropping spikes onto his head) NYANYANYANYANYAN YAAAAA!!!!

Vile: Gotcha. -teleports next to him, levitating with his jetpack, and blasts his face with cannon-

Sting Chameleon: NYAA!! (disappears and blasts him from behind; laughing as he does so)

Vile: -jumps and disappears, using a newly copied ability-

Sting Chameleon: HAH!! I'm the master of this, Vile! You can't fool me! (fires at where Vile is)

Vile: -teleports behind him, reveals himself, and cuts his tail off with saber- Actually, I can.

Sting Chameleon: AAAAWWKK!!! YOU-!!!! (attacks head on)

Vile: You've been played. -teleports above him and uses another newly copied ability to rain down spikes on him-

Sting Chameleon: AAAAAHHH!!! (the spikes pierce through and kill him)

Vile: -lands- That's what you get for calling me "soft". -teleports out-

Pallette: He deserved that.

Vile: Not even Sigma could piss me off that much... But I got several decent abilities off of him, so it wasn't a complete let down.

Pallette: I'm glad. (My spark is pounding so hard.....I don't believe it...I think that-)

Vile: Hmph. "Soft"... That wasn't far from the truth, way back when...

Pallette:.....(smiles at him)

MEANWHILE, AT HUNTER BASE

Axl: Tell me this is a dream!

Zero: Would you like me to give you a pain test?

Axl: DO IT!!!!!

Zero: -punches him in the face- How's that?

Axl:....I think I'm awake....

X: It's real Axl....

Axl:....(walks outside and rages)

Zero: This is something we will have a hard time accepting...

X: Pallette....and Vile....what is General gonna think of this?

Nana: It's best we not tell him or Colonel.

Zero: Especially not Colonel, he wants Vile put away for good. At least, not until I talk to them about it first.

Iris: (walks in) Talk to brother about what?

X: Uhh,....

Zero: Iris... It's about Vile. We're spying on him because he's acting out of character... We've found some eye-opening things about him... -Axl is heard raging- ...And Pallette's brain is becoming absent...

Iris:....Do I even want to know?

Zero: Well, you're probably gonna find out sooner or later.

Chapter 5: Climb to Devastation
Pallette: Who is next?

Vile: Hmm... Keheh, the battle specialist himself. He should be somewhat of a challenge for all of my new abilities.

Pallette: Boomer Kuwanger, of course. He won't be easy. Be sure to keep your emotions in check.

Vile: Heh. If I kept my head against the lizard, the beetle should be nothing.

Pallette: Right.....and, umm...(blushes a bit)

Vile: What? What is it? -starts to get impatient-

Pallette: It...it's nothing. Good luck....

Vile: Hmph. -goes to the teleporter- If ya got something to say, say it. Don't waste time.

Pallette: Have you....ever been in love? I'm just curious...

Vile: What kind of question is that? I have no idea what you're talking about!

Pallette: I...was just asking....I'm sorry....

Vile: Well, sorry I don't have an answer for you. -steps onto the teleporter-

Pallette:..........

READY!!

Vile: -teleports in- Hmph, let's test these skills.

(the tower is now more fortified than it was before with more enemies and turrets than ever)

Pallette: Security is tighter than my sister now--oopsie. (giggles)

Vile: Time to make it even looser and easier than she is. -disappears-

Pallette: (laughs at his joke)

(the scanners begin scanning the area; he then encounters some unknown enemies with some sort of search detection)

Pallette: Vile, be careful! Those Mavericks are using stealth crackers! Those beams will see right through your cloak!

Vile: Who says I'll be going through them? -teleports past them and blasts them with buster-

Guardian Mavericks: (blasted apart)

Pallette: There's probably more in this tower. Be careful!

Sniper Joes: (lining up for a good shot from above)

Vile: Oh, please. Is this basic training? -teleports behind them and blasts them with cannon-

Sniper Joes: DAMN YOU!!!

(many turrets begin firing on Vile)

Vile: Hah! -flies over them and disappears, then slashes them apart with saber- Hmph! Pathetic!

Pallette: Great job! (feels infatuated)

Vile: Heh. -starts teleporting above cannons and shoots them with laser blaster-

(all defenses are destroyed)

Vile: Hmph! Piece of cake! -proceeds-

WARNING!! WARNING!!

(Boomer Kuwanger dashes in)

Boomer Kuwanger: Hmm....I've been studying your files, Vile. I must say I am not sure whether to be impressed or disappointed.....

Vile: Why is everyone so quick to point out my scrappy past? In fact, why has everyone gotten so interested all of the sudden? I could have sworn last week everyone wanted nothing more than to see my glorious destruction.

Boomer Kuwanger: You're a unique specimen, Vile. You are hellbent on destruction and to change the world, yet not knowing why. Lord Sigma has found the reasons, and to hear of being tormented by your master and to kill the one person that ever cared for you....it really sickens me, yet also intriegues me as well....

Vile: Care? I'm not sure if we're looking at the same story. No one "cares" about me, I've only been taken advantage of one time too many! All they want is to make me their slave, their ulitmate gun, their machine of death... That's why they need to die! Especially him, for cutting my lifespan short...for fighting against what I'm wanted for...

Boomer Kuwanger: Don't try to lie and manipulate data and history. It's impossible to hide. And I know you cared for her as well...but I'm more concerned about testing that Supra-Force Metal's potential.

Vile: If it was that one girl during my training it was because I had to! I had no choice! I was weak... I couldn't fight him... Another reason why he has to die... -clenches fists-

Boomer Kuwanger: So I wonder....what does Lord Sigma see in you to want to rejoin his forces? Perhaps I should find out myself....

Vile: I'll tell you why. It's because he needs someone to take on X. He needs a trump card to put the balance of power in his favor. I'm surprised you couldn't see that, of all bots.

Boomer Kuwanger: Enough talk! (dashs forward and hits some swift punches and kicks)

Vile: -teleports to make him phase through- Likewise. -delivers a powerful kick to the back of his head-

Boomer Kuwanger: UGH!! (throws some Boomerang cutters)

Vile: -evades and copies the abilities, and starts throwing his own-

Bioomer Kuwanger: HNGH!!

Vile: -dashes up to him and delivers fast punches and kicks-

Boomer Kuwanger: GAAAH!!! (charges at him)

Vile: -blasts him with an energy shotgun- Hmph.

Boomer Kuwanger: UGH!! (defeated) Im...possible....

Vile: You should've checked my recent files. Gate made me stronger than ever before. You may find that this is no surprise.

Boomer Kuwanger:.......

Vile: Hmph. I should finish you, but I don't feel like it. Unlike Mammoth, I always liked fighting you. -teleports out-

Pallette:......

Vile: ...What?

Pallette: I wasn't aware the girl back then---

Vile: That was a long time ago. When I fought what I was made to be. I resisted, and I was punished for it. I didn't have a choice...

Pallette: I see.....and that's also why you wear that helmet....

Vile: It's why I wear it, sure, but I was given it to be that faceless, emotionless death machine. And guess what? It worked.

Pallette: That's not what I think....I still see you as a sweet and misunderstood Reploid tortured for so long....(holds his hand) And that's the truth.

Vile: (Eh?! Calm down, Vile, this is nothing, right?) Hmph, yeah, misunderstood to a point...

Pallette: (hugs him)

Vile: Huh?! -his hand brushes over the tracker- (What the...? Well then, might as well play along.) -smoothly takes it and puts it underneath his helmet, making it look like he's rubbing the back of his neck- Wh-What in the--?!

Pallette: What is it?

Vile: Hmph. It's nothing.

Pallette: Are you sure?

Vile: Yeah, I'm sure. Just caught me by suprise...that's all...

Pallette: (blushing) Sorry...I just--

Vile: Meh. I'll never understand you hero-types...

Pallette: (blushing more) ....

X:.....

Zero: I can't tell if she's a brilliant genius or a lucky idiot...

Smokescreen: That's Pallette for ya.

Zero: -sighs- Well, whichever it is, it's working.

X: Hmm....I'm more worried about what happens between me and Vile...

Zero: We won't know that until you two face off again.

X:...Right.

Zero: Maybe we'll see what kind of attitude he has towards you. I'm interested to see this all play out.

Chapter 6: The Dark Evil Sea
Pallette: Four down, four to go....

Vile: Hmph. Kicked the bigger threats out the door, there's nuttin but these small fries left. Guess the flamboyant squid there'll be entertaining to screw around with.

Pallette: Don't take Launch Octopus lightly. He is a master of underwater combat and is very smart too.

Vile: Granted, I don't fight underwater often, but I never cared for what my surroundings are, just do what I can with what's there. -goes over to the teleporter-

Pallette: The Frog Ride Armor can help you out.

Vile: Yeah. To an extent. Makes traversing open areas less cumbersome.

Pallette: (nods) Good luck

Vile: -nods and steps onto the teleporter-

READY!!

Vile: -teleports in- Been a while since I got wet. Not like that changes anything. -proceeds-

Bubble Crab: (instantly appears and kicks him down into the sea)

Vile: Ngh! Getting the drop on me, are ya now? -charges up at it and mercilessly beats it up, kicking it down- Hmph! Nobody gets the drop on me and gets away with it!

Chill Penguin: Oh contrare, Vile!

(Vile turns around to see Team Chill-Out)

Vile: Chill Penguin... I was wondering where my least favorite squaking penguin went off to when Sigma showed up again.

Chill Penguin: I am now leader of Team Chill-Out! GET HIM GUYS!!

Vile: Hmph. Are those your last words? -takes out his baton and a large V-shaped blade takes its place- I'll take you all on! -whips it, to slash through several of them-

Crush Crawfish: CRAWFISH CRUSH BUCKETHEAD!!! (charges with his pincers)

Vile: -evades swiftly as the boomerang strikes him in the back-

Crush Crawfish: GRAAAA!!!!

Vile: -rips the boomerang out from him and kicks him away- Hmph. Who else wants some? -whips it again, sending it in all kinds of directions-

Duff McWhalen: (begins attack)

Vile: Please... -disappears, grabbing the boomerang, transforms it into the laser blaster and starts shooting Duff McWhalen-

Duff McWhalen: NGH!!

Crystal Snail: (shoots Crystal Hunter)

Vile: -swiftly evades and winds up behind Crystal Snail, transforms blaster into saber and stabs him repeatedly, also makes his own attack explode on him by using him as a shield-

Crystal Snail: UGH!!!

Vile: -kicks him aside, becoming bored- Next!

Team Chill-Out: (keeps fighting him)

Vile: -keeps taking them down, becoming increasingly bored- This is just sad... -slashes Storm Owl in the back while giving Chill Penguin an earthshattering punch to the face-

Chill Penguin: WAAAKK!!!

Pallette: Vile, look out! A battleship is firing missiles from the surface!

Vile: Hmph. -disappears and zooms along the ground underneath it, then blasts it from below with cannon-

Pallette: Uhh.....the hull's made of solid Wiltanium. It won't be breached so easily.

Vile: Hmph. Then breaching it is out of the question. Let's see about its engines. -propels himself toward the engines-

Pallette: FIRE!!

Vile: HMPH! -starts blasting the engines with cannon-

(the battleship gets blasted down, but awakens a Uroboros)

Vile: Ugh! -lands on the body and starts blasting its head with buster-

(the monster begins getting severly damaged)

Vile: Hmph! -jumps over its head, and delievers the final blow with cannon-

(it is destroyed and Vile proceeds)

WARNING!! WARNING!!

(Launch Octopus swims down)

Launch Octopus: Well, well, look what Volt Catfish dragged in....

Vile: I could say the same, even though I have no idea who you're talking about.

Launch Octopus: He seems excited to meet you, Vile, though I am not too thrilled to see you. (tentacles appear)

Vile: Your feelings are reciprocated. -brandishes boomerang-

Launch Octopus: (chuckles)

Vile: Laugh while you can. Your flamboyancy will become deadboyancy soon.

Launch Octopus: HERE IT COMES!! (shoots several Homing Torpedoes)

Vile: -disappears and throws boomerang-

Launch Octopus: (brushes it off) Boomerangs? How cute....

Vile: -suddenly blasts Launch Octopus from behind with cannon- You say something?

Launch Octopus: YOU LITTLE!! (throws water cyclones and homing torperdoes at him)

Vile: -quickly evades the cyclones and destroys torpedoes with buster as boomerang slashes off tentacles-

Launch Octopus: AAAH!!!

Vile: -catches boomerang and it transforms into a missile launcher, and starts shooting homing missiles at him with it-
