Game Script

Introduction
================================================================================
For the most part, Vent and Aile's script will be very similar, but there are a
few events that are different in Vent's and Aile's script. For example, in
Vent's story, Giro had never used Model Z before, but in Aile's story, he has
used it several times before.
First is Aile's script, and then Vent's, since I played as Aile first. Use the
Ctrl + F feature to jump to the part of the script you want to read.

Aile's Story
================================================================================
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 1 - Deliver the Biometal
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Giro: Hello! Thank you for calling Giro Express Transporters! We can take
anything, anywhere!
????: Giro? Is that you?
Giro: Ah, the Guardian... or should I say client.
????: Did you receive the package from the archaeological recon unit?
Giro: Yes, I got it.
????: My unit is heading for the agreed upon rendezvous point. It's a little
sooner than expected, but let's meet up there.
Giro: Alright.
(He looks at Aile, who is standing by a cliff looking over a building.)
Giro: Hey Aile! You ready to move out?
(He walks over to Aile, who hasn't moved.)
Giro: Aile! Did you hear me!?
Aile: ...
Giro: You can see the Slither Inc. building from here. They sure have done a lot
to save this country.
Aile: The country maybe, but ten years ago, their security force couldn't save
my mom. We were surrounded by Mavericks... Even now I can still hear the screams
of the people. The Mavericks took everything from me.
Giro: I remember the day I found you, all alone. I know it's tough, but I doubt
your mother would want you to be so sad. Besides, you're not bad in a pinch. I
bet you didn't know that all of our customers like you.
(Aile gets annoyed.)
Aile: Not bad!? Giro! Is that supposed to be a compliment!?
Giro: Hahaha! Anyway, we have to get moving. The client is already making their
way to the rendezvous point.
(They walk back to their bikes.)
Aile: Hey Giro, who are those Guardian people we took the job from? They haven't
even told us what's in the package they want delivered so badly.
Giro: The Guardians are a defense force that banded together to fight the
Mavericks. Right now, they're moving from place to place investigating the cause
of Maverick outbreaks. As for the package, try not to ask too many questions.
I'm sure it's very important and very dangerous. Don't get too involved or there
might be trouble.
(Buster shots hit Giro's bike. Giro and Aile crouch next to their bikes.)
Aile: W-what's happening!?
Giro: Those are Mavericks! How did they get here!?
(The Mavericks attack Giro's bike.)
Giro: Ah! They must be after the package!
(The Mavericks attack Aile's bike. It explodes, flinging Aile and the package
over the cliff.)
Aile: Yaaah!
Giro: Aile!
(Aile wakes up in a grassy area.)
Aile: Ugh...
(She stands up.)
Aile: Oww, that was a long fall.
Giro: Aile! Are you okay!? The package! Do you see it!? It should've fallen near
you.
(Aile notices a glowing piece of blue and white metal to her right.)
Aile: Is that it?
Giro: Listen! Grab the package. Then take it to the rendezvous point and give it
to the Guardians! I'll join you later once I take care of business up here!
Protect the package at all costs!
(She runs over to it. Three people, Prairie, Bar, and Maquereau, notice her.)
Bar: Who are you!? What are you doing here!?
Aile: H-hold on! I'm only delivering a package.
(Prairie walks over.)
Prairie: Lower your weapons.
(They do so.)
Prairie: Are you a transporter?
Aile: Yes, I am... And you must be the Guardians?
Prairie: Yes. We heard an explosion and came to investigate.
(The ground shakes. A snake-type mechaniloid appears from the ground.)
Maquereau: W-what's that!?
Aile: A snake Mechaniloid! Is that thing with the Mavericks!?
(The two Guardians fire at it.)
Bar: Prairie! It's too dangerous! Take the Biometal and get out of here!
(The Mechaniloid knocks the two Guardians down.)
Maquereau: Aaagh!
(Prairie runs over and kneels by them.)
Prairie: Nooo!
Maquereau: J-just take it... and... go!
(Aile runs over to them.)
Aile: Hurry! Get up, we need to get away from here! They want the package! You
have to leave it behind. If we take it, they're just going to follow us!
Prairie: But I can't let the Biometal fall into the wrong hands!
Aile: Is that Biometal thing that important!? Come on, we have to go!
Prairie: But... Sis... She left that for us. It's too valuable to just give it
up now!
(The snake Mechaniloid appears again. Aile dashes between it and Prairie.)
Aile: I know Giro told me not to get too involved... But she seems to think the
Biometal is very important. I don't know what I should do...
(The Biometal, Model X, floats above Aile.)
Model X: Don't worry. I'll lend you a hand.
(Anime cutscene as Model X and Aile glow.)
Aile: Waaaaaah!
Model X: Biolink Established! M.E.G.A. System Online!
(Blue armor appears on Aile. Aile fires a shot at the Mechaniloid, which reels
back. Panting, she stares in astonishment. Anime cutscene ends.)
Aile: *panting* What happened to me? Is this the power of the Biometal!?
Model X: Don't be afraid. I'm Biometal Model X.
Aile: Model... X? The Biometal's talking to me inside my head!
Model X: We have to move away from here or that girl will get caught in the
middle. With our combined strength, we can fight them off!
Aile: ...
(The Mechaniloid flees. Prairie stands up as one of the other Guardians wakes.)
Prairie: She transformed!? Is she one of the chosen ones?
Aile: I just need to make sure this gets to the rendezvous point, right? It's
too dangerous for you to follow me, so please just wait here until I can get
help! I'm putting my neck on the line, so expect an extra fee when the bill
comes!
(She starts to run off.)
Prairie: W-wait!
(Aile stops and turns around.)
Prairie: Thank you for saving me. My name is Prairie.
Aile: And I'm Aile. I'll be your transporter today! Just wait. I'll bring back
help!
Prairie: Okay... Be careful Aile!
(Aile travels through the area, defeating several Mechaniloids. Finally, she
defeats the snake Mechaniloid from earlier.)
Aile: Guess that about mops them up. You said your name was Model X. Why did you
help me?
Model X: Do I need a reason to help people? You seemed determined to help that
girl even though you've never met her before. I just gave your bravery a little
power to back it up.
Aile: Power, huh? Well, whatever you did, it saved my hide. Bravery alone isn't
enough to fight those things...
Model X: ...
Aile: The rendezvous point should be just up ahead, right? Let's go.
(Aile enters a Transerver Room with four Guardians, including both Marue and
Fleuve. They notice her.)
Aile: I'm the transporter. I brought the package. Back there a girl named
Prairie is waiting and needs your help.
Marue: No way! Come on! Prairie and the others need us!
(He and two other Guardians leave, leaving only Fleuve.)
Aile: What's their rush? Those Guardians seem to think Prairie is very
important.
Fleuve: Amazing... It looks like you've managed to link up with the Biometal.
Anyway, I'm glad it made it to us safe and sound.
Aile: Hey, have you seen Giro? There should have been another transporter.
Has he arrived yet?
Fleuve: No. You're the only one that I've seen so far.
(Marue calls.)
Marue: This is the rescue squad, we've found the others! We'll treat the wounded
and then head on back to HQ.
Fleuve: Hold on. You haven't spotted another transporter out there, have you?
Apparently a transporter has gone missing in the area.
Marue: Hey! There's some serious smoke rising from the next area. It's totally
like someone has fallen under attack!
Aile: No... Giro! I'm sorry, but I'm going to need to keep the Biometal a bit
longer. I have to save him!
Fleuve: What!? You would put the Biometal at risk again!?
Aile: Oh I see! Now that your precious package is back, you don't care about the
guy who risked his life to deliver it!
Fleuve: B-but!
Prairie: Wait! Fleuve! Let her go!
Fleuve: Prairie!?
Prairie: It's okay Fleuve. She'll keep the Biometal safe from the Mavericks.
Aile... You risked your life to save me even though you didn't know me. I have
faith in you. I'll clear it with Guardian HQ. Go, help him.
Aile: Thank you Prairie.
Fleuve: Okay, we'll provide backup then. You may already know this, but these
devices known as transervers are scattered throughout the country. With these
devices you can save your data and check mission requests. Let's start with
saving data.
(Aile saves/doesn't save.)
Fleuve: I've just received orders from HQ. You currently have two mission
requests. One mission is to find your fellow transporter. The other mission is
to complete a trial in order to get permission to enter Guardian HQ. Complete
the two missions and return the Biometal to HQ. At HQ, we'll sign off on the
transporter request and your work will be done. You can decide which mission to
start first at the transerver.
Aile: Ten years ago, Giro saved me from the Mavericks... Now it's my turn to
return the favor. Hold on Giro, I'm coming!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 2 - Locate Giro
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Aile chooses the mission "Locate Giro." She travels to Area B and notices some
wreckage.)
Aile: It looks like there was a fight here. I can try following this road. Maybe
it'll lead to Giro.
Prairie: Aile? Come in Aile. About the Mavericks that attacked us, something
with the whole thing is bothering me. There might be a clue in the ruins about
what's causing the Maverick outbreaks. Check them out and see if you can find
something.
(Aile travels through the area until she picks up a Computer Chip.)
Aile: What's this? Is this a computer chip?
Prairie: It must be a part that fell off one of the Mavericks. If you bring it
back to HQ, we can analyze it. It might give us the lead we need. If you find
anything else, bring that back too.
(Aile travels through the area, picking up more Computer Chips, until she finds
a ship Mechaniloid. After attacking the Mechaniloid until it is nearly dead, an
odd red armored figure with a black visor and blond hair destroys the ship with
a saber.)
Model Z: So this is the chosen one for Model X?
????: Yes, she's very special to me.
(He transforms into Giro, and turns to Aile.)
Giro: Aile, it looks like you've been chosen by the Biometal too.
Aile: Giro! Just what is Biometal? I don't understand what's going on!
Giro: This is my partner, Biometal Model Z. I'm sorry I kept this a secret from
you, but I'm a member of the Guardians. You and me are both chosen ones. We can
transform with the power of the Biometal. I was given an order to protect you
from the people who are after the power inside you.
Aile: I'm a chosen one?
Giro: I didn't want to hide it from you. I was planning on telling you
everything once we safely delievered the Biometal. Aile. Will you join me and
the other Guardians? The Biometal is the key to understanding why the Maverick
outbreaks are occurring.
Aile: This is all so much for me to take in. I just don't know Giro...
Giro: I don't want to force you to do anything against your will. It's your
decision. I'm going to use the transerver to go back to Guardian HQ. I'll be
waiting there for your decision. Please don't take too long.
(Giro walks away.)
Prairie: It sounds like you managed to meet up with Giro. That's a relief. Oh,
be sure to go to the transerver in the back room and select Mission Report. Then
send confirmation to HQ that the mission has been completed.
Aile: Was Giro with me all those years just because he was ordered to protect
the chosen one? I feel so confused...
(Aile reports the mission.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 3 - Pass the Test
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Aile chooses the mission "Pass the Test" and heads to Area C.)
Prairie: Hold on. It looks like Slither Inc's security force is starting to
patrol the area.
Aile: Patrols? That's the first time I've ever heard of them doing those.
Prairie: Slither Inc. must have already heard about the Maverick attack. If you
stay transformed, they might think you're in league with the Mavericks and
attack you on sight. I'm sure the people around town will also find it hard to
approach you if you look like that. In any case, it's too dangerous to walk
around town transformed. Be careful.
(Aile encounters a Guardian named Dorado.)
Dorado: You're going to undertake the trial for permission to enter HQ right?
There are four Guardians hidden like me throughout town. If you can find all of
us, you pass the test. Let the trial begin! Good luck!
(Aile finds a Guardian named Oelliet.)
Oelliet: Hoho! I shoulda known I'd get spotted in this hiding place. You aren't
gonna catch my comrades so easily though. They're in places that require more
than just strolling on in. Press the +Control Pad diagonally down to crouch
while walking. Look around different places, you never know what you might find.
I'm heading back to HQ. Good luck with the rest of the trial!
(She teleports away. Aile then finds a Guardian named Carrelet.)
Carrelet: Oh, looks like you found me! You should be careful of the security
patrols. As long as they're giving you the green light, you're safe from attack.
But if you're caught with a weapon they will open fire, no questions asked!
Anyway, I'm heading back to HQ. Good luck with the trial!
(He teleports away. Aile finds a Guardian named Congre.)
Congre: Yikes! Oh! You finally found me. I was afraid of running into the
security force and getting hurt. That's why I've been hiding here. *phew* I
thought they would find me for sure. Now I can finally head back to HQ.
(He teleports away. Aile finds the last Guardian, Thon.)
Thon: Grahaha! Well done findin' me little miss! I wish we had more of your kind
in the Guardians. But whether you decide to join us or not is up to you. I'll be
headin' back. See ya later!
(He teleports away.)
Prairie: It looks like you found them all. Head to Area C-2 and get the
certification for passing the test. That will conclude your trial.
(Aile heads to Area C-2 and finds Dorado outside the Data Room.)
Dorado: You passed the test. Here, take this.
(He hands her a Stuffed Animal.)
Aile: A stuffed animal? *giggle* It's really cute, but is this supposed to be my
certification!?
Dorado: You better take care of that. It's one of Prairie's most prized
possessions. Anyway, that concludes your trial. There's a transerver in the room
behind me. Don't forget to file a mission report!
(Aile reports the mission.)
Fleuve: Mission accomplished. Well done. You have permission to travel to HQ.
Use the transerver to get here.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 4 - Guardian HQ
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Aile travels to the Transerver Room in Guardian HQ. Giro, Prairie, and another
Guardian are there.)
Aile: This is the Guardian HQ? I certainly wasn't expecting an airship.
Prairie: The Guardians have to explore the world, so we need a convenient method
of staying mobile.
(She walks over to Aile.)
Prairie: I'm glad you both are okay.
Aile: Hey Prairie, I found a computer chip while I was out there. Here, you
should have it.
(She hands the Computer Chip over.)
Aile: And I brought back the certification that I passed the trial... I think.
Is this it?
(She hands over the Stuffed Animal.)
Prairie: Yes, that was a gift from Sis. It holds a lot of memories for me. Thank
you for bringing it back.
Giro: Aile! You can't just call her by her first name! Got it? Hmph, kids...
Prairie: Don't worry about it Giro. I want to apologize for the grave danger I
put you both in. Let's meet at the command center and I will explain everything
there. It's out of this room and to the left.
Giro: *sigh*
Aile: ...
(Prairie, Giro, and the Guardian leave, with Aile following afterwords. They
enter the Command Center, where Prairie is sitting at the main hub.)
Prairie: Let me take this opportunity to welcome you to Guardian Headquarters.
And...
(She stands up.)
Prairie: I am Prairie, the commander of the Guardians.
Aile: Wh-what!? Prairie is the commander of all the Guardians!? Th-then that
means...
Giro: She's a very important client. Which is exactly why I want you to call her
by her proper title.
Aile: But Prairie's my age right? How could a girl my age be commanding the
Guardians?
Prairie: The sentient machines known as Mavericks continue to attack people.
This terrible situation should not even exist. Hundreds of years ago, man and
machine put aside their differences and agreed to a truce. The Guardians have
continued to investigate the root cause behind the current Maverick outbreaks.
One day we found a research lab belonging to a certain scientist.
Aile: A "certain scientist?"
(Prairie bows her head.)
Prairie: The first commander of the Guardians... The one who disappeared. She
was my Sis.
Aile: Oh... I see.
Giro: And we were hauling the Biometal that you found at the research lab.
Prairie: A long time ago, the world humans and machines was saved by a group of
legends. Biometal are fragments containing the consciousness of those legendary
heroes. There might be some hint regarding the Maverick outbreaks in the data
stored at the lab. Fleuve's personal laboratory is right next to the transerver
room. Take the Biometal data there for analysis. I'll be here analyzing the
computer chip that you brought back.
(Giro and Aile go to Fleuve's lab.)
Fleuve: Oh, good, good. I have been waiting for you! Now, where is this fragment
of Biometal?
(Aile hands Model X over to Fleuve. Fleuve begins analyzing it on the computer.)
Fleuve: Ah, excellent... Data transfer complete. Much appreciated! You can take
the Biometal back now.
(He gives Model X back to Aile.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 5 - Model ZX
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(An alarm begins to ring.)
Operator: Mavericks detected in Area D! Mission objectives will be relayed on
arrival. Move out and await further orders. I repeat! Mavericks detected in Area
D! Mission objectives will be relayed on arrival. Move out and await further
orders.
Giro: Area D... That's right next to the Slither Inc. head office!
Fleuve: It's too dangerous for you to go back to town now. We must hurry to the
command center.
(They head to the Command Center.)
Prairie: It looks like our enemy is on the move.
Giro: "Enemy?" So they're not just random Maverick outbreaks?
Prairie: After I did a little snooping on the chip you brought back, I found
that there is a program controlling the Mavericks. There is someone behind the
Maverick attacks, but they're just making them seem like random raids. They must
be trying to steal the Biometal you were carrying.
Aile: Serpent's security force... Where are they? Why haven't they arrived yet!?
Prairie: It takes time for them to be recalled to the head office from their
patrol routes in the city. Guardian ground forces are moving to intercept the
Mavericks in Area D.
Maquereau: Ground forces reporting! The Mavericks are heading for the
residential district. Troops are exchanging fire on the highway in Area D.
Aile: What about the people in town?
(She starts to run out the door.)
Fleuve: Aile!? Where are you going!?
(Aile stops and turns around.)
Aile: WIth the Biometal, I can put up a fight!
(Giro walks towards her.)
Giro: Think Aile! If you go running out there with the Biometal, you'll fall
right into their hands! You don't know how to fight! It's far too dangerous for
you to go out there alone!
Aile: So you're just going to sit back and watch while the Mavericks do this!?
The people are going to get hurt when the Mavericks reach them! People just like
my mom... You would let that happen again!? Unlike you, I can't just sit there
and watch! I'll take every last one of them down!
(She runs out the door.)
Prairie: Aile!
(Giro runs a hand through his hair.)
Giro: Why won't she ever listen!?
(He chases her. Aile, merged with Model X, runs on the highway. Giro, merged
with Model Z, dashes towards her.)
Giro: Hold on Aile!
(She stops.)
Aile: Giro, I...
Giro: I'm not going to let you go out alone. Whether or not you can handle the
Biometal doesn't matter, you're important to me. I will protect you! Come on,
let's go!
Aile: Right!
(Giro dashes off ahead. Aile follows, eventually finding a wounded Maquereau.)
Maquereau: Another transporter!? You came too? Giro rescued me and continued on
alone. You have to save him!
(Aile continues on. Eventually, she finds Giro, still megamerged, lying on the
ground with a large man and two Reploids standing above him.)
Aile: Giro!?
????: Ah, you've come. Model X, the blue Mega Man. It's time to see the legend
in action.
(The man starts to do something to Giro.)
Giro: Ugh... Stay... away... It's a trap...
(Giro starts glowing.)
Giro: Aaargh!
(The three teleport away. Giro stands up, looking insane.)
Aile: Giro! What happened!?
Giro: Aile! Sh-shoot me...
(Giro attacks Aile, who has no choice but to defeat him. Soon, she is aiming her
Buster at him, but her arm is wavering.)
Aile: Stop it! Giro, you have to fight it!
Giro: Grr... aaagh!
(A thunderbolt strikes Giro, who crumples to the ground.)
Aile: Girooo!
(She runs towards him.)
????: Model X, the blue Mega Man... Model Z, the red Mega Man... Such
disappointments. The Biometal the Guardians found might as well have been tin
scrapings.
(The three appear again.)
Aile: Who are you!?
Serpent: The name is Serpent. I rule all that lies before me. I am the Model W
Mega Man!
Aile: Serpent!? You're the president of Slither Inc.!
Serpent: I see my reputation precedes me. You'd do well to remember me, blue
Mega Man!
(Aile aims her Buster at him.)
Aile: You're the one behind the Mavericks and what happened to Giro!
???? (female): You're shaking... Is it anger... Or fear?
???? (male): Hmph, at least the red one was more of a challenge than this one.
Aile: How could you!?
(She charges her Buster.)
Serpent: Prometheus.
Prometheus: Ah, poor blue Mega Man. What you mistake for courage is nothing more
than mere recklessness.
Aile: Quiet!
(She shoots, but Prometheus reflects it back at her.)
Aile: No!
Serpent: Chosen ones like us, who can control the Biometal's M.E.G.A. system and
transform. We are called Mega Men. The chosen few are the shepherds for guiding
the flock in a new world. But you've proven with your pathetic abilities that
not all Mega Men are fit to rule.
(Serpent raises a hand. Lightning strikes Aile, who collapses and demerges with
Model X.)
Aile: Yaaah!
Serpent: Pull the password data out of them.
Pandora: Understood...
(She sends over some machines and begins to pull the data out.)
Prometheus: That was far too easy. What should we do with them?
Serpent: Leave them to the Mavericks and carry on as you were. A battle between
the evil Mavericks and the good Slither Inc. security force. Classic. The people
of this town will go on with their lives as usual. We need the facade of peace
to continue on just a little bit longer. Eventually they will all become a
glorious sacrifice for Model W.
Aile: W-what did you say!?
(Pandora revceives her machines back.)
Pandora: Password data retrieval complete...
Serpent: Gyahaha! Now we have all of the passwords. Let's go. It's time to
proceed with Project Haven.
(Serpent and Pandora teleport away.)
Prometheus: These two are already finished? This was far easier than we had
foreseen.
(He teleports away.)
Aile: Agh... I... can't move...
Giro: Never... give up... You still have something... you must protect.
Aile: Giro! You're awake!
Giro: Model Z, listen... Don't worry... about me...
Model Z: Do you know what you're asking? Your body is already beyond recovery.
If you transform back, you will not survive the wounds...
Giro: Please... lend your strength... to Aile...
Model Z: Alright, I will...
Giro: Aile... don't... give up.
(Giro demerges with Model Z and dies, disappearing. A Cyber-Elf floats away.)
Aile: Giro! Giro!!! It's all my fault! I never should have charged into this!
Model X: Aile. This is your last chance. If you combine the power from the two
Biometal fragments, you might be able to transform again. I can't be certain
whether or not you'll be able to bear the strain when the two fragments are
combined.
(A group of Mavericks surround her and the Biometal.)
Model Z: It's your decision. You alone must make it. Do you have the will to
fight? Do you have what it takes to continue where that brave man left off?
(Anime cutscene. Aile reaches out for the Biometal.)
Aile: Model X... Model Z... Power... I need your power. I need to protect the
people, all of them! Lend me your strength to fight for those I care about!
(Aile grabs both Biometal and blasts the Mavericks away by transforming into
Model ZX. Anime cutscene ends.)
Model X: Aile... our strength...
Model Z: Is yours! And Giro's sprit is also with you!
Aile: Serpent! I'll make you pay for what you did today!
(She runs to the right, only to see Serpent's ship start to rise.)
Aile: That's a Slither Inc. airship!
(She chases it, but it flies away.)
Aile: Giro... I... I...
Prairie: Aile... The battle between the Mavericks and the security force has
begun. You can't stay there. It's too dangerous. Return to HQ immediately.
Aile: Prairie... I will join you in your fight. I won't let them get away with
this! I will protect everyone!
(She heads over to Guardian HQ, still merged with Model ZX.)
Aile: I'm such a fool. Giro knew I was in over my head and tried to stop me, but
I rushed in anyway. Giro saved me again... Why did I have to be the one to make
it out alive?
Prairie: Aile... Don't start thinking like that.
Aile: Huh?
Prairie: Giro gave his life protecting you. Don't ever forget how much he cared
about you.
Aile: Giro...
Prairie: We've analyzed the data and foud out a few things. Model W has the
power to corrupt machines and humans alike. That's what has been causing the
Maverick outbreaks. But Serpent only has the Model W Biometal fragment now. The
Model W Core is lying dormant somewhere waiting to be awoken. I'm not sure what
that Project Haven Serpent mentioned is... But I think he's going to try and
awaken Model W.
Aile: He's going to try and sacrifice everyone. I won't let that happen! Where
is the Model W Core now?
Prairie: I'm not sure... Some of the data was corrupt and we couldn't complete
the analysis. What I do know is that the six passwords encoded into the Biometal
fragments are the keys. Combined they will unlock the seal that contains the
core. I managed to get Model X and Model Z first...
Aile: Serpent already has the other four. We're going to have to fight and take
them away!
Prairie: I'm going to simulate the data and narrow down the Biometal locations
using the Maverick signatures. Once I get a mission plan together, I'll add that
information to the transerver. Aile you're not alone in the way you feel right
now. Please don't forget that. Get Serpent... for Giro.
(She sits back down. Aile heads over to the transerver.)
Operator: Aile! I sent a yellow card key to the server. You'll be able to open
yellow doors with it.
(Aile receives the Yellow Card Key.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 6 - Search the Plant
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Aile takes the mission "Search the Plant." She heads over to Area E.)
Prairie: The plant... It's still active and producing energy. According to the
database, it has been offline ever since the Maverick raid. There's something
fishy going on. Be careful Aile.
(Aile travels through the area until she finds a room full of Cyber-Elves.)
Aile: What are these things? I saw one when Giro disappeared.
Prairie: This signature... Cyber-elves!?
Aile: Cyber-elves? What's a Cyber-elf?
Prairie: Sentient programs created with pure energy and made in the image of
elves. I don't understand why there are so many of them here. That power
plant... It must be using the Cyber-elves to generate power!
Aile: It looks like we found out what's up with this place.
Prairie: Unbelievable! Cyber-elves are all sentient beings like the rest of us!
Aile, please, you must shut down that power plant!
(Aile continues until she encounters a winged Reploid on a junked machine. It
hovers down in front of her.)
Hivolt: Hmph. Now how did a little girl come wandering all the way out here? I
should have known better than to rely on Maverick grunts.
Aile: You're one of Serpent's men? For a Maverick, you sure are chatty.
Hivolt: You've done your research. It looks like I can skip the introduction.
However, make no mistake, I'm not just a simple puppet like those Mavericks. I'm
an artificial Mega Man created to draw out the power of the Biometal. I'm Model
H Pseudoroid, Hivolt. Have no fear. It'll all be over soon. You'll feel just a
little jolt before you sleep forever!
(The two fight. Aile defeats Hivolt.)
Hivolt: Hah... The energy we've produced here is already well on its way to Lord
Serpent. All that's left is for him to hack into the Model W Core. Poor
misguided fool. Your end draws near as a new age is beginning!
(He explodes, leaving Model H floating.)
Model H: I am the Biometal of the Wind, Model H. Thank you for saving me, young
hero.
Aile: Please, I need your help Model H. I have to defeat Serpent and prevent the
resurrection of Model W.
Model H: Do you think that will end this?
Aile: Huh?
Model H: All of this was started by a single man. Even if you destroy the Model
W Core and stop Serpent... What's to stop another madman from rising up and
taking his place?
Aile: How am I supposed to know that? What I do know is that Serpent is
deceiving all of the people in this country. I'm the only one that sees through
it! I can't just let this happen!
Model H: Hmph. Those humans we fought so hard to protect hundreds of years ago
have been lulled into a false sense of security by the empty promise of peace.
But I still believe our fighting had meaning. So, young hero, yes I will lend
you my strength. Serpent has separated my data into two halves. There is another
Pseudoroid with the other part. If you can defeat it, I will be able to give you
my password.
(Model H joins Aile. Aile heads over to a transerver and reports the mission.
She receives a green card key.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 7 - Find the Survivors
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Aile takes the mission "Find the Survivors." She heads over to Area F.)
Prairie: The distress call definitely came from this area. The signal is too
weak to pinpoint the exact location.
Aile: I guess it's up to me to find it then. I'll check further back.
(Aile continues until she detects a signal.)
????: ...
Aile: Hello!? Is anyone here? I've come to help!
????: ...
Aile: Hmm... No one's around.
Prairie: The source of the signal is definitely coming from near your position.
The device emitting the signal should be close. Try to locate it.
(Aile finds a room with a computer.)
Aile: Prairie, I'm near the terminal that was sending out the distress call. But
I don't see anyone around.
Prairie: What? I wonder what could have happened there?
(Suddenly, the computer comes to life.)
Aile: Hmm.... It looks like there's a data disk still in the terminal.
Computer: I don't have much longer. I pray that this data doesn't fall into the
wrong hands.
(It shows an image of several scientists examining Model W.)
Computer: The recon unit has unearthed a strange metal in this area. It seems...
conscious. The commander called it "Biometal Model W." We continued to research
it, until one day, when we were just about ready to give up... One of our own
went mad and destroyed our unit. He erased the data and vanished with the
Biometal.
(Screen pans to reveal a younger Serpent examining the Biometal.)
Computer: His name was Serpent, and he was always the most passionate about our
research into the Model W fragment. I will attempt to record what little is
known about the cause of his insanity below...
(The computer dies.)
Aile: This is where the data ends...
Prairie: Sis... This is a report from the first commander's recon unit! The
distress call must have been activated to make sure someone would find this
data. But the recon unit is... gone.
Aile: Prairie... Serpent was a member of the Guardians!?
Prairie: I didn't know either! There was nothing about that in the HQ database!
Aile: Slither Inc. might have the other half of the data. Prairie, where's that
enemy Biometal signature?
Prairie: I'm reading the Biometal signature just beyond the locked door. We'll
hack the lock from Guardian HQ.
Aile: Thanks Prairie!
(Aile continues until she encounters Lurerre.)
Lurerre: Oh my! What's that disk you've got there? Agh! I thought I told you
Mavericks to leave anything of importance to me! Hmph! Worthless fool!
Aile: I should have known you were after this data disk! Where's the rest!?
Lurerre: Oh my my... You must be one of those horrid interlopers trying to stop
poor Lord Serpent's plan. Well hmph! I'm not telling you anything, so how do you
like that!? I am the lovely Pseudoroid Model L, Lurerre. I'm going to tear you
apart piece by piece! Prepare for the end little girl!
(The two fight. Aile defeats Lurerre.)
Lurerre: Oh my... Oh my... Goodbye cruel world. How could this be! Done in by a
creepy little runt!
(She explodes, leaving Model L behind.)
Model L: I am the Biometal of the Ice, Model L. Thank you for freeing me from
that awful body. You're looking for the rest of the data disk right? I'm sorry,
but it has already been taken away somewhere. A hundred years have passed since
the war, but it looks like some things will never change.
Aile: There's a man named Serpent and he is trying to awaken Model W. I'm going
to need your help and the password to stop him.
Model L: Hmm... Model Z, I heard the story about Serpent. I know you are linked
with a host body, but I heard he beat you in combat.
Model Z: Yes... My failure led to the death of a good man named Giro.
Model L: I see... Alright, I'll join you. It should be an interesting challenge
to take on the one who bested the great Model Z. I'll give you my password, but
the data is split into two halves. The other Pseudoroid with my power has the
remaining half. I won't be able to give you the complete password until you
defeat him.
(Model L joins Aile. Aile heads over to a transerver, reports the mission, turns
in the Data Disk 1, and receives a Blue Card Key.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 8 - Fight the Mavericks
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Aile accepts the mission called "Fight the Mavericks." She transports over to
Area G. She travels until she finds Maquereau.)
Maquereau: Oww... The other Guardians went further on to try and save more
people. They were surrounded by Mavericks and haven't come back. Use this old
portable transerver. Please, you have to save everyone!
(Aile heads into the facility. She finds another Guardian, Chene, near the
entrance.)
Chene: I came here to try and help people, but I can't get through the flames.
You could use the dash jump to leap over them! Please! Do whatever you can to
help the others!
(She teleports away. Aile finds Allen, a little boy, on the bottom floor.)
Allen: Nooo! I can't find Bosch! Someone! Please save him!
(He teleports away. Aile finds a Guardian, Platane, on the 5th floor.)
Platane: Thank you for coming to save us! Just remember to transform back to
normal before talking to people. Otherwise they'll be too afraid to accept your
help. Of course us Guardians know you and won't be afraid.
(She teleports away. Aile finds Gayark, a Slither Inc. employee, in the 1st
room.)
Gayark: Why me!? How did I end up in this mess? Hey, you there! Would you give
me a hand? I'll make it worth your while! This is nothing compared to the value
of a life. Please take it. It's yours!
(He teleports away, leaving behind some E-Crystals. Aile finds an old man named
Kaspar in the 2nd room's window.)
Kaspar: I was too slow and couldn't escape in time. If you hadn't come along, I
would have become one extra crispy old man. There are a lot of others that need
rescuing.
(He teleports away. Aile finds a Guardian, Banite, in the 3rd room.)
Banite: You there! Are you here to help with the rescue operation? Beyond that
window, one of us went inside to help, but the fire has surrounded them and now
they are trapped. If you stand in front of the window and press up on the
+Control Pad, you can enter inside.
(He teleports away. Aile enters the window. She finds another Guardian, Sole.)
Sole: We came to help too, but we got surrounded by the flames. There are others
who need your help in the area. Please, you have to help them! Oh! By the way,
make sure you aren't transformed when you talk to the townspeople.
(He teleports away. Aile finds a girl, Sonya, in the 4th room.)
Sonya: Thank you for saving me. There are other people trapped here too. You can
reach the next building over from the top floor... The sprinkler system controls
are over there and locked. Take this key and you should be able to access them.
(She unlocks the 8th room and teleports away. Aile looks in the window of the
5th room and finds Thalia.)
Thalia: It's so hot and scary... Where are mommy and daddy? I want to see mommy
and daddy! I wanna go home!
(She teleports away. Aile finds an injured girl, Silvia, in the 5th room.)
Silvia: I sprained my ankle and fell behind. I was worried I wouldn't make it
out of here alive since I couldn't move. I'm so lucky you came along when you
did! Please, take this.
(She teleports away, leaving an energy capsule. Aile finds a boy, Malisan, in
the window of the 6th room.)
Malisan: Did you come to help us? Thank you... I think someone is controlling
the Mavericks. This fire is all his fault! He should be at the top of this
building, getting ready to head to the next one over. You've got to teach him
that if you play with fire, you get burned!
(He teleports away. Aile finds a man, Luke, on the 7th floor.)
Luke: *cough cough* Who are you? Did you come to save us? As you can see, this
room is covered in smoke. Some of the people escaped through the room windows.
They might still be waiting for help on the other side.
(He teleports away. Aile continues searching through the facility until she
encounters Fistleo.)
Fistleo: Ah the Guardian's Mega Man has arrived... To think their great hero
would be just a little girl. But I suppose if the Mavericks have chosen you,
then you must be the one.
Aile: Mavericks choosing me? What are you talking about!?
Fistleo: The Mavericks were not causing all of that trouble just for fun you
know. They were trying to locate the perfect vessel for Model W. It is all tied
into the holders of the Biometal. The chosen ones. The Mega Men. You. After all,
you survived the Maverick raid those many years ago.
Aile: Are you trying to say the Mavericks let me live!? That can't be!
Fistleo: Ah, it appears you are not willing to accept the truth. It does not
matter, Model W will have the sacrifice it requires. The name is Fistleo, I am
the Model F Pseudoroid. If you will not accept your destiny, then you will have
to accept your end.
(The two battle. Aile defeats Fistleo.)
Fistleo: How could this happen!? I was transformed into a Pseudoroid... I was
supposed to have the power of a god... But I was beaten by a little girl!
(He explodes, leaving behind Model F.)
Model F: Yahoo! Thanks for saving me! I am the Biometal of the Flame, Model F!
Let's get a move on! Who are we gonna take down next?
Aile: W-wait! I haven't even explained anything yet!
Model F: I know, I know, Serpent is up to something sneaky with that Model W.
It's all so complicated. I don't really know what's going on. I just know that
he used my power to do his dirty work. If you're out for payback, I'm your
model! Got a problem with that?
Aile: Well no...
Model F: Oh, the password. Sorry, but I can't give the whole thing to you yet.
Serpent split my power down the middle and the other part is with another
Pseudoroid. If you can take that one down, I can give you the password.
(Model F joins Aile. Aile reports the mission and receives the Red Card Key.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 9 - Secure the Biometal
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Aile accepts the mission called "Secure the Biometal." She transports over to
Area H.)
Prairie: Aile! Mavericks are concentrating in that area! It looks like they're
after the Biometal too, so be careful!
Aile: ...
Prairie: Aile? Did you hear me? What's wrong?
Aile: Oh! I'm okay. I'm going to proceed with the mission now. I can't believe I
have to fight here...
(Aile eventually encounters a giant Mettool and destroys it.)
Aile: Hmm, this isn't the one with the Biometal. I wonder where it could be?
Prairie: Aile, what's going on? You've been acting strange ever since this
mission started.
Aile: Prairie, can you tell me where that Biometal signature is coming from!?
Just hurry up and tell me!
Prairie: Aile, calm down! What's going on with you?
Aile: Ten years ago I was attacked by Mavericks... I was separated from my mom
during the panic, and Giro is the one that found and rescued me.
Prairie: You were there ten years ago during the Maverick raid...
Aile: This place has a lot of memories for me, both good and bad. I just don't
want anything to happen to those memories. I want them to stay the way they are.
Prairie: Now I understand. I'm sorry, I...
Aile: No, I'm sorry. I was getting all worked up with the memories of my mom and
Giro flooding back.
Prairie: Aile, please remember that you are never alone. You've got me and the
other Guardians... And you've got Giro watching over you too. We'll save this
country together.
Aile: Thank you Prairie. Recommencing mission!
(She continues until she sees Purprill.)
Purprill: Ook! Ook! So a Maverick has come to take me back eh? Lord Serpent just
doesn't understand how to treat his employees!
Aile: So you're the one with the Biometal! I'm sorry but I'll be taking it now.
Purprill: Oh, so you're not one of the Mavericks? Then get out of my park!
Aile: I'm the one with the memories here. You get out of my park!
Purprill: Ook? You aren't actually going to challenge an officer of Slither Inc.
are you? This should be interesting. I'll show you just how powerful the
Pseudoroid Purprill really is!
(The two fight. Aile defeats Purprill.)
Purprill: N-nooo! I'm to powerful to be beaten! I'm an... officer... I should
be... unstoppable... Ooook!!!
(He explodes, leaving Model P behind.)
Model P: Drowning in his own power... What an appropriate end for a low-life
that wanted it so badly. I am the Biometal of the Shadows, Model P. You fought
bravely. Model X, since you are lending your power to this one, am I to assume
the time has come?
Model X: It has. Someone is trying to revive Model W. Will you help us stop him?
Model P: It is our destiny across the ages to protect the world of Man. Let us
once again become humanity's blade for striking down evil. I apologize that I
cannot hand over the password. Serpent split my data up into two parts. The
other part is contained in a different Pseudoroid. As long as that Psuedoroid is
operational, you will never reach Model W.
Aile: I better stay alert if there's another enemy out there with the power of
Model P.
(Model P joins Aile. Aile reports the mission and gets the Purple Card Key.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 10 - Attack on Guardian HQ
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Prairie calls Aile after she finishes her 4th mission report.)
Prairie: Aile! Can you hear me!? Come in! HQ radar has spotted multiple Slither
Inc. airships! Their fleet is flying full speed straight at us! Aile! Get back
here! We need your help!
(Aile transports back to Guardian HQ and goes to the Command Center.)
Aile: Prairie, what's the current situation with the enemy fleet!?
Prairie: Not good! They're right on top of us! This ship wasn't designed for
heavy battle. If the enemy boards us, we're done for!
(The alarm rings. The ship shakes.)
Operator: Slither Inc.'s fleet has fired an opening volley! Returning fire!
Prairie: All hands man the port and starboard machine guns! Don't let them get
any closer!
(The ship shakes again.)
Prairie: Aile! You have to get to the deck and do what you can to stop those
boarding parties!
Aile: I'm on it! I won't let anyone get hurt! I'll keep every last Guardian
safe!
(Aile heads out onto the deck and destroys several Mechaniloids. Another robot
deployer lands. Anime cutscene. Numerous Mechaniloids dash out the deployer and
head into the ship, as well as Prometheus and Pandora. Anime cutscene ends.)
Aile: Wait a second. I've seen them before!
Prairie: Enemy troops have boarded the ship! They're heading for the engine room
down below! You have to get down there and protect the engines! Hurry!
Aile: Hmph! I'll stop 'em!
(Aile heads towards the engine room. Meanwhile, Prairie, Maquereau, Prometheus,
and Pandora are in the engine room.)
Maquereau: Hey you! Stand away from the reactor!
(He fires, but Pandora blocks with her shield.)
Pandora: Move aside...
(Aile enters the room and stands between the two Guardians and the Reploids.)
