Alia

Alia (エイリア) is a character of the Mega Man X series. She works as an Operator, Navigator, and Computer Specialist of the Maverick Hunters and first appeared in Mega Man X5. She briefs X, Zero, Axl and other Hunters about their missions and guides them through the areas, giving information about the objectives, recent developments and spotted Mavericks. She also manages the transfer actions at Hunter Base. In Mega Man X8, she can be unlocked as a secret playable character, like her two Navigator comrades, Layer and Pallette, imitating the style and moves of X, though she is limited by the fact that she cannot use Armor parts. Before working for the Hunters, Alia was part of a team of Reploid Research scientists and was close to her colleague, Gate. Some fans theorize is that she is the Roll for this series.

Personality
Alia is a very dutiful character. She tries to move her personal feelings and concerns away (especially during the Nightmare Incident) to carry out her work for the sake of everyone. She's caring deeply for the members of her team and does her best to guide them through their missions without being harmed. Alia rarely shows any weaknesses, but the Nightmare Incident revealed a deeper, more emotional part of her personality, giving herself the blame for Gate's reasons for becoming a Maverick trying to wipe out all low-level Reploids to create a new nation under his ideal.



Researcher days
Before joining the Maverick Hunter forces, Alia used to work at a research lab analyzing the potential of Reploid engineering. She also used to have longer hair during that time (which she restored to its original length in Mega Man X8). One of her colleagues was Gate, who was believed that Alia held feelings for. Gate, who was obsessed with the non analyzable data of X and Zero, devoted all his time and power to create Reploids whose DNA were as unreadable as those of X and Zero. Eventually, he succeeded, creating superb Reploids with non analyzable DNA and was praised immensely, which brought the rage and jealousy of his colleagues upon himself. Though she regretted it afterwards, Alia was drawn into a conspiracy of the other researchers sabotaging Gate's creations, trapping and destroying them during their missions or have them being declared Maverick for dubious reasons. Alia was directly responsible for the destruction of Blizzard Wolfang, but was forced to do it, stressing her quite a lot. After Gate left full of hatred and bitterness, she decided to start all over again herself, becoming a member of the Maverick Hunters.

Mega Man X5
Alia made her debut in the X series as X and Zero's navigator. While she played no crucial role in the plot aside from aiding in level navigation, she does talk a bit in the ending where Zero went Maverick and X's memories of him were erased, commented on her doubts of X's return as a miracle and believing something to be behind it.

Mega Man X6
Alia's character was greatly expanded in Mega Man X6. Gate, her former colleague, had obtained a piece of Zero's remains and had analyzed it, creating the Nightmare Virus from it, as well as the Reploid High-Max and the Zero Nightmare, a purple copy of Zero which was blamed by Gate as the source of the Nightmare, and started a made-up campaign against Zero to become a new hero for the people and Reploids. While X (and the later recovered, original Zero) investigated the areas and defeated the Nightmare Investigators, Reploids constructed by Gate to analyze the Nightmare, Alia revealed to the Hunters that she used to work together with Gate in a Research Team and was part of a conspiracy to sabotage his Reploids, which had now been revived by the Nightmare Virus. Blaming herself for Gate's bitterness, she tried to convince him to surrender and stop his plans of creating a new nation for top-level Reploids only before he ended up being killed himself.

Although she tried her best, Gate didn't listen and fought X and Zero, ending up being defeated by them and damaged beyond repair by the revived Sigma. She was given a choice by X who had dragged Gate's remains out of his destroyed lab whether to try to repair him or not. What exactly became of Gate afterwards was never revealed.

Mega Man X7
Alia also assisted during the events of Red Alert by adding in stage navigation like before. She did not have a major impact on the plot like before, but she did show up in all three endings. She contacted Zero in his ending to wake him up and appeared in X and Axl's endings to discuss Axl's progress.

Mega Man X8
Like all other characters, Alia experienced a major design change in Mega Man X8. Like the others, Alia's appearance was thinned, removing all her bulkier body armor parts and exchanging them for some more slender ones. Apparently, she also decided to let her hair down again, like it used to be during her days as a researcher. Furthermore, though less noteworthy, her bust size was increased for unknown reasons, as well as have her 'breasts' appear more round and moved closer together to look more human-like than robotic.

In the game's plot, Alia did her usual work supporting the Hunters with information about the stage layout, the upcoming bosses and eventually about Reploids which had a DNA core suitable enough for Axl to transform. She also analyzed the New Generation Reploids' source of viral immunity - their Copy Chip - and also revealed that the DNA of the New Generation Reploids resembled that of Sigma. She also located Sigma's base on the moon. Her final appearance in the game, although off-screen, was her call for X and the others after they had taken out Lumine.

As a hidden goodie, Alia can be unlocked as a playable character after completing the game once, using Alia as the player's Navigator at least two times more than Layer or Pallette. Alia's movesets and abilities were modeled after those of X, being able to charge her Buster for more powerful attacks and receiving the same Special Weapons from defeated Mavericks than X. However, she was unable to charge up the gained weapons. Also, like with all other characters, her stats and abilities could be upgraded by finding Rare Metals and researching them. Though copying X's style, Alia, like the other two Navigators, received no pre-boss battle dialogue with the Mavericks when selected as part of the team.

The Elf War and Neo Arcadia era
Like most of the X series characters, Alia's ultimate fate is unknown. There is no information available whether or not she lived to see the end of the Maverick War or was killed/retired at some point or became a Maverick during the Elf War by the powers of the Dark Elf and the Baby Elves. In case she survived both conflicts, she may possibly have continued her duty as an Operator for the Neo Arcadian forces (as a form of Maverick Hunters still exist there) or may also have retired from active duty. Capcom has yet to reveal what happened to her.

Mega Man X6
After collecting 3000 nightmare souls Alia: I found out what the Nightmare is... The Nightmare is an artificial virus. It infects Reploids and rewrites their DNA and AI programs, immobilizing them. At worst, even their appearance changes. We don't know exactly as our analysis is not yet complete... But it is very similar to the Mavericks.

X: Yeah...It's almost the same.

Alia: But I'll tell you the real threat of the Nightmare. The Nightmare phenomena... An infected Reploid gets out of order... By inputting certain code, in fact, you can manipulate the Reploid freely. The real purpose of the Nightmare is... not to ruin Reploids, but to control Reploids... Finally: When the virus rewrites his system, the Reploid sometimes dies. A normal virus dies with its host. The Nightmare is so strong, the virus can survive after the Reploid dies. On the other hand, we don't need a special vaccine to damage it, since the energy is so strong. Deleting them may be easier than Sigma...

X: Who is doing this...?

Alia: To create such an advanced virus... He is the only one... The one... who was my colleague... Gate... The investigators... Some look different, but those eight Reploids were created by Gate. They should have been in use somewhere else since they are very able Reploids... Thinking of the Nightmare program, he is the only one capable of this.

X: ...Why is Gate doing this?

Alia: When he and I worked for the Reploids Research Team... All his Reploids were super. His program was too advanced to analyze. The Reploids made remarkable progress. But that started to become dangerous. Then some Reploids began to take needless risks. Gate's reputation started to falter. But he continued creating more advanced Reploids so that he would get recognition for his ability. Of course, it was against our boss. One day, making it look like an accident, the Reploids were disposed of. It was our boss' orders. But I participated...

X: Were they really dangerous?

Alia: No, not really. But his program was just too advanced. There were too much that could not be analyzed by us.

X: Is that all?...It's the same as me.

Alia: I hesitate to say this... He also aimed to make the strongest Reploids. Zero and X... He wanted you. He believed that the ultimate Reploid can never be analyzed... so he strived. So his program advanced to the point where no one could analyze it. He was much smarter than me... but I got ahead as I followed orders. Nobody gave him the proper recognition. Then he got isolated, and left saying this: I'll get revenge on all low Reploids who couldn't appreciate my ability! Building an ideal nation with high-end Reploids only. That was his ambition... The Nightmare is that very revenge on those who didn't appreciate him! It is the embodiment of his "hatred"!

X: I'll stop such an ambition. I won't accept no more sacrifice of Reploids! He must know the current situation. Mankind, Reploid and the Earth are in danger.

Alia: Yes. Stop Gate's plan at once. Gate must delete the Nightmare.

X: All right. Let's find Gate!

Mega Man X5
Intro Stage
 * This is Hunter Base. Can you hear me, X? Sigma appeared suddenly and moved toward the statue which is under construction. We lost his trail and haven't picked up any readings since... I've lost contact with Zero, too. Where would he go? You can reach the statue by going straight in that direction. Stay alert! Several machines, even some deserted taxis, have become Mavericks in the area. Be careful.
 * This is Hunter Base. Can you hear me, Zero? Sigma appeared suddenly and moved toward the statue which is under construction. X is already en Route. Follow and regroup with him as soon as possible! You can reach the statue by going straight in that direction. Stay alert! Several machines, even some deserted taxis, have become Mavericks in the area. Be careful.
 * What a terrible sight... The highway's been badly damaged... We've got to find Sigma before he destroys anything else, or we'll be in very serious trouble.
 * This building is seriously damaged. The walls could collapse at any second, so try not to get trapped by falling rocks... You can take advantage of the lay of the terrain.
 * Can you see a red rope ahead of you? Jump and grab the rope carefully!
 * You've finally reached the Statue. I lost the traces of Sigma and Zero somewhere above you. But remember: The guard system of the construction site is malfunctioning as a result of the Sigma Virus. Kick the guard walls quickly and climb them!
 * You've finally reached the Statue. I lost the traces of Sigma above you. I also lost contact with X... I've got a bad feeling, Zero... Something is going on above you... Climb up and find out what's up. But remember: The guard system of the construction site is malfunctioning as a result of the Sigma Virus. Kick the guard walls quickly and climb them!
 * Th...s...Hunter...ase... This is Hunter Base. Do you read me? Are you all right? Any damage? (After defeating Sigma and Virus spreads.)
 * We have no choice... For the sake of the world, we must destroy the Colony! ... But the only weapon we have in the Hunter Base that still works is... ... The Enigma... And it's very old. We also have a space shuttle. But, it's been affected by the Virus, and the Auto-Pilot function doesn't work... So we need someone to fly it to the Colony and let it collide... It's almost certain death, but we have no other choice.

Grizzly Slash's Stage
 * Destroy the Maverick trucks! Then you'll be able to reach the security warehouse.
 * To be honest, you don't need to come to this area... But, you may find something useful... Destroy the Maverick trucks! (If you don't need parts for the Enigma.)
 * The blue core you can see below is the weak point. If you destroy it, the truck will begin to explode. But you'd better jump to the next truck before this one blows! Then head to the end of the line.
 * This truck has already begun to explode! Hurry and move to the next one!
 * Is this the secret warehouse? I can't tell... but there ARE strong energy readings... We're getting even stronger energy readings from deep inside! It must be him! Stay on guard!
 * Grizzly Slash had a C-BALL! This should greatly increase the striking ability of the Enigma. I'll ask another Hunter to do the recovery operations so you can return to the Hunter Base.
 * We've found the C-Ball that GRIZZLY had. We don't need it anymore, but we'll still take it back to the base. I'll ask another Hunter to fetch it. Please return to the Hunter Base. (If the Enigma has already been fired.)

Dynamo's first appearance (after clearing one stage)
 * Incoming message from... ...sources unknown.

Duff McWhalen's Stage
 * Wow! It looks like the giant ship "U-555" is coming right at you! I don't believe it. It belonged to a marine museum. What an incredible influence the Sigma Virus has! But, so be it... To secure the sea, we have no choice but to fight against the "U-555". Be careful not to get stuck on the complicated terrain.
 * We don't need to secure the ocean anymore. This area is under the fin of the huge ship, the U-555. But, if you want to go here, I won't stop you. (If you don't need parts for the Enigma.)
 * What is this place... Are you in an old sunken ship? The "U-555" is trying to escape. It went deep in this direction. Follow it!
 * We can produce HYDROGEN from this ocean. If only the Hunter Base worked... then we wouldn't have to take water from the ocean... Now please return to Hunter Base... You have another mission to complete.
 * Peace has been restored to the ocean, at least temporarily. But the "U-555" will start moving again someday... unfortunately... The ocean is so terribly polluted... Now please return to the Hunter Base. (If the Enigma has already been fired.)

Squid Adler's Stage
 * Hello? Are you all right? You couldn't walk here because the terrain is too badly damaged. Even the Ride Chaser nearly didn't make it. By the way, did you notice that there are energy items along the way? Those energy items and the door in front of you seem to be corresponding... If you have the items, shoot them at the door. Then the door may be opened.
 * You did it! The door has been broken! I wonder what is inside... Proceed with care... (If you collected all of the energy.)
 * ......... No response... Still... It seems you came close to destroying it... Maybe you only need a few more energy items... (If you didn't collect all of the energy.)
 * A lab scientist is in custody. Save them and let them escape. There might be some cartridges in this laboratory that still work... We want to obtain one, don't we.
 * The lock system of the shutter is broken. If you attack the lock system, it will give power to it. You can possibly open the shutter this way. However... Since the lock system is almost broken, the circuit will soon break again. Please keep aware of the amount of time you will have to open the shutter.
 * There are two kinds of lock systems. The color of the shutter and the lock system correspond to each other.
 * You got around so many traps. Thanks to you, we now have a precious ENERGY CART. SQUID used to be a Hunter, but had become a Maverick. It must have been hard for you even though it was your mission... Let's restore the peace for him...
 * You got around so many traps. Thanks to you, we got an ENERGY CART. But we have finished with the Enigma now so we don't need the ENERGY CART anymore. Squid used to be a Hunter but had become a Maverick... It must have been hard for you even though it was your mission... Let's restore the peace for him... (If the Enigma has already been fired.)

Izzy Glow's Stage
 * We can learn lots about Dr. Izzy Glow just from looking at this laboratory... He is the world leading authority on laser technology. Therefore, the laser he created will be great use to the Enigma. I hope he will willingly give one to us, but... ...I heard he is a very stubborn person so this might not be easy.
 * Dr. Izzy Glow's laboratory... You have no reason to be here since we don't need the Enigma anymore. (If the Enigma has already been fired.)
 * The platforms can't be destroyed, so you will have to time it just right to go through...
 * You should proceed by stepping on the platforms.
 * Break the door that you can see below, and proceed to the next room.
 * The defense system is engaged. It attacks you with powerful plasma. If you have some kind of weapon, you may be able to neutralize it.
 * Dr. Izzy Glow's room is above you. There are several plasma defense devices installed on the way to the room. Use a weapon that can attack upward!
 * It looked like a quiet laboratory... but the inside was in complete ruins. The Sigma Virus has caused total disorder everywhere... In order to fix the situation... we need to make good use of Dr. IZZY GLOW's LASER DEVICE. We've finished taking the LASER DEVICE back to the base. Thank you for your help. We'll meet you at the Hunter Base.
 * We wasted Dr. IZZY GLOW's research... Although we got the LASER DEVICE, We don't need it anymore. Thank you for your work, anyway. We'll meet you at the Hunter Base. (If the Enigma has already been fired.)

Enigma Cannon Succeeds
 * The energy, the power, the angle... everything is clear.
 * We have succeeded. The colony has been destroyed. Although scraps from the colony will fall to the Earth, they shouldn't cause severe damages. We barely avoided total destruction... The damage is significant... I wonder when things will be restored.
 * No way...What is this reaction?
 * I spotted the Virus reaction. And it's a new one... The readings are like that of Zero... I mean... a Zero Virus? It's like Zero, and seems to have very strong power... The Virus of the colony and that of the Earth have been mixed... and have produced a new Virus... ...The Zero Virus...
 * ...This is exactly the same reading... ...Should we call this the Zero Virus? The scraps of the Colony Virus and the Sigma Virus combined together...? ...I wonder what's going to happen...

Enigma Cannon Fails
 * Negative! We destroyed only 62%! We have merely made it change orbit... and delayed the time of impact...
 * The shuttle will approach and fly into the colony... The pilots will eject at the last minute. It's very dangerous because they could get sucked into the blast. In the end, I fear that this will fail just like the Enigma. We need to gather as many devices as we can to strengthen the shuttle's power. But the auto-pilot function doesn't work...

Dark Dizzy's Stage
 * At first glance, it may seem to be an ordinary planetarium. But in truth, it is also a space laboratory... Why don't you borrow a fuel tank for the space shuttles? But before you do that, there is something strange about the planetarium... So, the Sigma Virus has already polluted this facility, too... Your visit to the planetarium will be very interesting, I guess.
 * At first sight, it may seem to be a plain planetarium. But... in truth, it is also a space laboratory... But, the facility is very different from what it used to be... You can't find the device for the Enigma here... As long as you understand that, do as you please. (If the Enigma hasn't been fired.)
 * At first sight, it may seem to be a plain planetarium. But... in truth, it is also a space laboratory... The Fuel Tank for the Shuttle is here, but we don't need it anymore... Your activities are up to you, but... if you don't feel it's worth while, then you should move on. (If you don't need the Shuttle parts.)
 * I'm picking up a Maverick reading at the constellation. Watch out!!
 * I guess you need to get on the lift... It is unstable, but there is no other way.
 * Watch out for the track! It isn't moving on the right course! If you sense any danger, jump to the nearest place as soon as possible!
 * This is the gravity reverse device! It can control gravity, and turn it upside down. Of course, you may be able to take advantage of it.
 * With regard to DARK DIZZY... He was a Maverick created three years ago by Sigma... But you have destroyed him... Since Sigma scattered a large amount of the Virus, he doesn't have any energy left to reproduce himself... By the way, we've found a FUEL TANK. Now the Shuttle will be able to fly to the space colony... Please return to the Hunter Base quickly.
 * With regard to Dark Dizzy... Sigma created him as a Maverick three years ago. I wonder what Sigma was up to... Did you find anything underground? ... A FUEL TANK? All right. I will dispatch a team to pick it up. You return to the Hunter Base. (If you don't need the Shuttle parts.)

The Skiver's Stage
 * You can get the Orbiter Wing from the Reploid Air Forces. But... I can't believe the Sigma Virus could've gotten to the Reploid Air Forces...
 * The Reploid Air Forces has also been infected by the virus... It's too dangerous, and is not worth the risk. You should leave the area as soon as possible. Wait! I'm picking up something on the sensor... There are survivors. Rescue them and help them escape! (If the Enigma hasn't been fired.)
 * I can't believe the Reploid Air Force has been influenced by the Sigma Virus. You don't actually need to come here. But there seem to be survivors in this area. Save them and help them escape! (If you don't need the Shuttle parts.)
 * Darn. Someone has set the bombs! They are small, but do not underestimate their fire power... Destroy them before they detonate!
 * There are bombs above you. Climb up and destroy them!
 * There are more bombs ahead of you! Dispose of them as soon as possible!
 * I didn't expect to have to fight against the Reploid Air Force again. But since most of the Reploid Force members have become Mavericks... I guess that was inevitable. Fortunately, the devices for the Shuttle were not damaged... but the Air Force was not so lucky... It won't be safe there anymore. Come back to the Hunter Base.
 * I didn't expect to have to fight against the Reploid Force again. Most of the Force members have become Mavericks... It was inevitable, I guess... Did you find anything useful? A device for the Shuttle... Anything is better than nothing. It won't be safe there anymore. Come back to Hunter Base. (If you don't need the Shuttle parts.)

Mattrex's Stage
 * There's a rocket Booster Engine in this lava area. Watch out for the lava and proceed with care. If you touch the lava, you'll be instantly vaporized!
 * This is the lava area... The lava control system has been influenced by the Virus and is malfunctioning... It is very dangerous... If you still want to go there, I won't stop you. But don't waste precious time staying there too long! (If the Enigma hasn't been fired.)
 * This is the dangerous lava area. You do not need to go to this area anymore. But if you wish to, I won't stop you. But remember, time is precious! (If you don't need the Shuttle parts.)
 * Wait! There's a lot of lava below us. But, we have no choice but to proceed this way. The lava comes at fixed intervals, be mindful of the timing and proceed.
 * Watch below you! It's too hot! Wait until the lava has gone, then go down.
 * Go before the next lava comes! Quick!
 * Hmm... Can you see the rock over there? The temperature is lower then the other side of the rock. If you take advantage of the rock you may be able to avoid the lava. Wait behind the rock when the lava comes, then proceed with care.
 * Destroy the door in front of you. Then you'll be able to proceed to another area.
 * Well... This area is kind of like the sea of lava. The Probe Ride Armor could probably endure the heat of the lava. Our path divides... You can go this way, or you can take the other way below... If you go down, you'll have to go through the lava area. If you go this way, you'll be free from lava but... You can't proceed with the Ride Armor because a huge rock blocks the way. Which way will you choose? The decision is yours...
 * It seems you can break the rock in front of you. Destroy it so you can move on!
 * We've found the BOOSTER ENGINE. Now the striking power of the Shuttle will be increased. There seems to be some more useful weapons lying here. But I don't think you have time to investigate. Evacuate before you get sucked into the lava!
 * We're relieved to know that the damage caused by the Virus is minimal. Also, we've found several weapons... Among other things, I'm sure the BOOSTER ENGINE will be useful later on... I wonder if there is any connection between the Virus and the damage to this area...? But you have little time to investigate. Evacuate before you get sucked into the lava. (If you don't need the Shuttle parts.)

Axle the Red's Stage
 * The secret Reploid Forces facility that is hidden deep in the jungle has become infested with Mavericks. I bet that if you go a little deeper into the jungle from there, you'll find the Orbiter Engine.
 * The secret Reploid Forces facility hidden deep in the jungle... I don't know why you want to come to this area, but I'll navigate for you. You may find something useful... (If the Enigma hasn't been fired.)
 * The Secret Reploid Air Forces facility hidden in the jungle... It's the core of the Jungle which has been taken over by Mavericks. Perhaps things wouldn't have been so bad had we come here earlier... I don't know why you want to come to this area, but I'll navigate for you. You may still find something worth while, anyway. (If you don't need the Shuttle parts.)
 * You can grab the vines with your Wire Hook... Use the vines to climb up!
 * Climb down there... But watch out for that big hole below you.
 * The Sigma Virus even destroys nature... There is nothing in nature now which is completely free from mechanical devices. We've found the BOOSTER. It's out in the jungle... Another Hunter will be there soon to pick it up. Your mission is complete. Return to the Base.
 * The Sigma Virus destroys even nature... Nothing in nature is completely free from mechanical devices anymore... Oh, it seems that a Hunter unit has arrived there. They reported to me that they've found the ENGINE. Unfortunately, it doesn't work for the ENIGMA... We have no time to lose... Return to the Base immediately. (If you don't need the Shuttle parts.)

Results Screen after clearing a stage
 * You got the DNA data from the boss you have just defeated! From this DNA data, the special weapon has become yours! Equip the weapons using the L1, R1 button. Every enemy has a weak point. Find the most effective weapon for each enemy. Plus, if you defeat a high level boss, you may be able to create not only a weapon, but other items as well. In that case, please select which item you wish to create.

Shuttle Operation Succeeds
 * It's about time... Zero...
 * Zero, the colony is approaching... Go!
 * 7 seconds to impact. 5...4...3...2... ... it crashed into the Colony! ...... Destruction of the Colony is... ... 86%! It will be gone within 10 minutes! ... We've succeeded in destroying the Colony! ...Zero? Can you read me?
 * We've got a response from Zero!
 * We'll get you from wherever you fall... Until then, try to get some rest. It won't be easy, though...
 * Wait! What is this reading? ...This is exactly the same reading... ...Should we call this the Zero Virus? The scraps of the Colony Virus and the Sigma Virus combined together...? ...I wonder what's going to happen...

Shuttle Operation Fails (Zero becomes Maverick)
 * The Shuttle crashed into the Colony!
 * The destruction rate is...54%... The Colony won't be destroyed... Our mission has failed... Zero! Do you read me?
 * The speed of the Colony is increasing! It's too dangerous to stay here any longer. We better get away!
 * I'm here...Signas... I barely hear you...
 * The Earth... avoided the worst situation... I don't have any other information...
 * There is no reading on them...but... They're...alive... I believe... (Concerning X and Zero.)
 * ......... The reading of the Sigma Virus has also disappeared... I don't know why... ...but I think it's lucky... ...Wait! Wh-what is this reading?!
 * It's an incredibly strong energy... ...Ze... Zero? Are you Zero?
 * I got a reading that looked like Zero...
 * Zero, Zero is...

If all 16 hours are allowed to run out (Zero becomes Maverick)
 * Estimated 31 minutes until the collision. Ground zero is 5646 points in E block. Tidal waves and earthquakes are already breaking out in various places! We have to evacuate immediately!
 * X and Zero are missing...
 * I can't tell exactly because the signal is being jammed... I'm sure the results are devastating... (After impact.)
 * I've caught some readings, but they're very weak... I'm not sure if they are alive or not... But the data reading of the Sigma Virus has gone... ............ Wait!! What's that?!

Both Enigma and Shuttle Operations Succeed
 * A new virus...? Out of the frying pan into the fire... For the moment, we've named it the Zero Virus... I'm reading a strong energy reaction from point 11F5646! We may be able to solve the mystery of the Zero Virus... But it's very risky... What should we do? I know we can't escape... so we'll just have to fight it! Go for it! We must bring this to an end once and for all!

Both Enigma and Shuttle Operations Fail
 * I'm reading a strong energy reaction from point 11F5646! What's happening now?! It's too dangerous! NO! Don't go!

Stage Select (when final stage becomes available)
 * I'm getting a stronger energy reaction from point 11F5646! The energy is too strong to get an accurate data sample. I must be reading Sigma... I can't think of anyone but Sigma! Sigma is behind all of this... I won't stop you from going to fight anymore...I leave everything in your hands...

X's ending (Zero normal)
 * A large Maverick has broken out in HORIE 2146 block! Go into action immediately!

X's ending (Zero Maverick)
 * It's not a miracle, I bet...
 * I'm not interested in miracles... I don't think Reploids dream of miracles, either...
 * Besides, there's a protection, now. He won't even accept data related to Zero... I couldn't program such a protection... We've got another mystery about X...

Trivia

 * In X8, because of her being parallel to X in gameplay function, Alia is the first female character to have the Variable Weapons System.
 * She bears a great resemblance to the main female protagonist of the Mega Man Zero series, Ciel, as she briefs Zero on his missions, though she shares this task with the operators Jaune and Rouge in Mega Man Zero 2, 3 and 4.
 * In X's ending in Mega Man X6, Alia mentions having plans of working on an antibody program that will delete the Maverick Virus for good.
 * Alia makes an appearance in Zero's ending in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars, marking her first appearance since Mega Man X8.
