Red Alert

Red Alert (レッドアラート) is a group of vigilante Reploids that were similar to the Maverick Hunters, but their practices were oftentimes outside the law, thus causing them to be labeled as Mavericks. Their leader, Red, challenged the Maverick Hunters to see how many Mavericks they could defeat, and let loose some Mavericks they had in custody earlier. In actuality, they were manipulated by the former Maverick Hunter Sigma, under the alias of the "Professor."

History
Prior to the events in Mega Man X7, Red Alert wouldn't usually use such tactics that would make them known for their violence. Sigma, at some point, realized the potential in Axl's shapeshifting ability, and decided to intervene. He teaches Red how to use the DNA from Axl's transformations to power up his army. Sooner or later, this power ends up corrupting the generals of Red Alert, turning them into Mavericks. Interestingly enough, Sigma was referred to as the "Professor" by Red and Tornado Tonion.

Axl realizes his friends have changed, and feels he must leave Red Alert immediately. This causes controversy when Axl comes across Maverick Hunter Zero, and gets involved with not only causing a war between Red Alert and the Maverick Hunters to get Axl to come back, but also has to take down the people he once held close to him.

Red sees through Sigma's evil ways and tries to break ties with him, but it's too late: with Axl already gone and his generals corrupt, he has no option but to fight to win Axl back and bring peace back to his army. Sadly, this doesn't happen.

Each one of his generals are retired by Zero, Axl, and when he realized the severity of the situation, X. Red battles the Hunters and Axl, but loses and ends up dying in a collapsing building part of the Crimson Palace. Red's death marked the end of the Red Alert syndicate.

All members, current and former, were a part of the Red Alert syndicate prior the to events of Mega Man X7. All current members were retired during the course of the game.
