- MEGA MAN X'S STORY - |
-- INTRO
For some unknown
reason, the programs of Reploids are suddenly erased. The Reploids stopped
moving and almost seemed like they had become hollow shells. This phenomenon
was named "ERASURE" and began to frighten the Reploids...
-- OPENING
"Laguz Island" in the Southern Ocean. Here is where the Reploid Research
Lavatory is located. One day, the reading of Reploids had instantly vanished.
A lot of Reploids were erased! What happened in this island...?
Maverick Hunters, X and Zero received the orders and head into action!
(Iris) You are now on Laguz Island where the Erasure Incidents have happened.
What's the situation there? (X) I have found some Reploids that are out
of commission, and the others have become Mavericks. (Zero) Iris, we will
begin to check the surrounding area. Can you offer us support? (Iris) Okay.
But, please don't get too wild and bite off more than you can chew. (Zero)
Don't worry, Iris.
(Zero) Did you find anything, X? (X) Yes I found something! The island
is filled with the Mavericks that I thought destroyed. (Zero) WHAT?! Did
they come back by themselves, or is there someone behind their resurrection?
We must find out. (X) I'll go and check it out. (Zero) Okay. Let's meet
up again later.
(X) What's this place? Hm! The enemy is coming!
(X) Are you alright, Zero? (Zero) There seems to be so many more enemies.
(X) This is crazy! What is their purpose, anyway? I must find out!
(Iris) X, Zero! We've just received... (Zero) What is it, Iris!? (???)
Is it you...? ...Who had broken into my island? (X) Who are you!? (???)
I'm a Soul Eraser. I erase the souls of evil Mavericks. (Zero) That can't
be! What do you really do!? (???) It takes courage to ask someone like me
a question like that. Interesting... Well then, let's play a little game.
There are eight guardians on this island. Retire all of them, and then I
will battle you. (X) These silly games are pointless. (Zero) It seems that
retiring eight might be easier then persuading one. (???) You're very quick,
Zero. My name is Gareth. Don't forget it! (Iris) Gareth... I can't find any
data on such a Reploid in our database. Plus, we have found unfamiliar items...
(Zero) We have also found DNA data, that was draining out of the enemies.
(Iris) They seems to have been resurrecting enemies by somehow utilizing
DNA. (Zero) They are erasing the Reploids' DNA in order to create items?
(Iris) It seems so. A Reploid's DNA is like that of a human's soul. From
now on, let's call it DNA Soul. We may be able to create something useful
from Mavericks' DNA Souls. (Zero) We can't leave Maverick's souls alone.
(X) We must also find the souls of the erased Reploids... LEt's gather the
DNA Souls!
(Berkana) They have been very entertaining! (Gareth) It is unwise to
allow them to act on this island. They should be terminated immediately...
(Berkana) Not yet. I want the data on the Maverick Hunters. The more they
fight, the stronger they would become, thus better data would be required.
(Gareth) We have acquired enough DNA Souls. We don't need any more. (Berkana)
You must have noticed how dangerous it is to fight both of them at the same
time. (Gareth) True. It is too dangerous to fight them at once. (Berkana)
Let's enjoy watching them for awhile. One of the guardians may get lucky
and destroy them. (Gareth) It is very unlikely... But if you say so... (Berkana)
I can hardly wait to meet them. Hee hee hee...
-- MIDDLE
(Gareth) Splendid! I'll be waiting for you in the Reploid Research Laboratory!
You know where that is... (Zero) I'll put an end to this soon! (Iris) Wait
a second. I believe the laboratory is a very dangerous place. (Zero) I
know, but we have to go. (Iris) Yes. I'm not going to stop you. Just please
take this device. With this device, you can execute a Player Change at
any time by pressing SELECT. (X) All right, Iris. (Zero) I will trust his
unknown potential power! Let's go, X! (X) I'll get the DNA Souls back! You're
going down Soul Eraser!
(Berkana) Hee hee hee! I've been waiting for you, boys. Let me show you
the ultimate beauty that can only be realized by gathering DNA Souls. You
will learn that I am the strongest!
(Berkana) Welcome, boys. (X) Be quiet! (Berkana) You are very cute, even
when you're angry. I didn't take Reploids' lives for no reason. Their sacrifices
helped to make us stronger. (X) How dare you! That is no excuse! (Berkana)
It is pointless talking with you here. Why don't you come to Gareth's or
my room so that we can relax and talk? My room is above here, while Gareth's
is below. The decision is up to you. (X) Zero! It's better for us to separate
here! (Zero) Roger that. (X) See you later, Zero! And good luck!
(X) I'm coming for you, Berkana!
-- ENDING
(Berkana) Finally, we are alone. (X) Release the DNA Souls of the Reploids!
(Berkana) I admire your speeches. But now, allow me to test the result
of my experiment on you. Let me see who is the strongest Reploid! This
is my final experiment.
After the battle, X felt the DNA Souls being released. Now the Reploids
would return to normal. On his way, various memories flash through X's mind.
The most dominant ones are memories of Zero. Zero should have finished his
mission by now. X thinks that he can stand up to any difficulties with this
partner and friends Zero. While he thinks like that, he can't help but think
of new challenges to face with his friends.
-- FINAL ENDING
(Sigma) Hmm... You are the ones who made that noise! (Zero) Sigma! (Sigma)
But this time, I have to thank you for doing that. Actually, Berkana went
too far. Although, she did help me by keeping me entertained for a while.
Hee hee hee. (X) It was you who started the incident! Sigma! (Sigma) Now
is not the time for talk, now is the time to destroy! You know, that I'm going
to destroy you! (Zero) How dare you! (Sigma) Go for it! Fu Fu Fu Bwah ha
ha! I'll be waitning for you. Bwah ha ha ha!
(Sigma) Hee hee hee. I'm pleased to see you. Now I'll delete your soul
forever!
(Sigma) It seems that I underestimated you... The playtime is over...
Now I'll bring this to an end...
(X) Are you all right? Zero? (Zero) Yeah, I am. Hey, look at that! (X)
The DNA Soul are returning! The hollow Reploids will come to life! (Zero)
Probably... Everythings is over, now. (Iris) X! Zero! The hollow Reploids
are coming to life one by one! (Zero) Iris, rescue the Reploids in cooperation.
(X) Let's go Zero! We have to express our thanks to Iris. (Zero) Right. She
was very helpful. I feel sorry that her first job as a Maverick Hunter was
like this. The Colonel will blame me. (X) The Colonel? But I believe the experince
will be helpful when she returns back to the Reploid Force. Anyway, let's
go back. We're done here.
(Iris) Supreme Job! Now that Sigma has been defeated, true peace has been
restored. So now I have a present for you! This is an awesome mode where
you fight against 8 bosses. How fast can you defeat them? Good Luck! |

(X) Zero, what's the situation? (Zero) The Mavericks that we had destroyed
before are rampaging throughout the island. What has been happening on this
island? X, you check out the route below. (X) Roger that. Stay alert, Zero.
See you later!
(Zero) Humph! Why don't you come out and face me?
(Zero) Are you alright? (X) Let's go up for now so that we can contact
Iris. (Zero) Agreed. But, I wonder what they are plotting...
(Iris) X, Zero! We've just received... (Zero) What is it, Iris!? (???)

(Gareth) I anticipated that you would make it this far I will delete both
of you souls!
(Gareth) Your reputation is well earned. Sorry about the unworthy games!
But just so you know they were Berkana's idea! (Zero) How dare you use the
word unworthy?! How many Reploids have been sacrificed in you evil plan?
(Gareth) Do not misunderstand me. It was an honor for them to have been chosen
as experimental samples. It is as honorable as it gets for mean-spirited Reploids.
(Zero) I'm wasting my time talking to you! I'll finish you within the blink
of an eye! (Berkana) This is not over yet! Why don't you come to Gareth's
or my room so that we can relax and talk? room is above here, while Gareth's
is below. The decision is up to you. (Zero) Are they running away again?
I'll follow them wherever they go! X, let's separate here! (X) Okay, I'll
take Berkana. (Zero) See you later, X.
-- ENDING
(Iris) Zero! Stop a minute and think about this! If you separate, you
are walking into their trap. Why don't you fight together!? (Zero) You don't
need to worry. Even though we are far away, I have a feeling that I've been
protected by his power. We'll get through this.
(Gareth) How very impressive. (Zero) No more words! Let the battle begin!
After the battle, Zero assisted in releasing the DNA Souls. Now the Reploids
would return to normal. He has no doubt that X has finished his mission now.
Zero and X have faced and fought through many difficulties together. As
long as X is with him, Zero can do anything. Though he doesn't express it,
Zero believes this with all his heart. This is something that will never
change.
-- FINAL ENDING
(Sigma) Hmm... You are the ones who made that noise! (Zero) Sigma! (Sigma)
But this time, I have to thank you for doing that. Actually, Berkana went

forever!
(Sigma) It seems that I underestimated you... The playtime is over...
Now I'll bring this to an end...
(X) Are you all right? Zero? (Zero) Yeah, I am. Hey, look at that! (X)
The DNA Soul are returning! The hollow Reploids will come to life! (Zero)
Probably... Everythings is over, now. (Iris) X! Zero! The hollow Reploids
are coming to life one by one! (Zero) Iris, rescue the Reploids in cooperation.
