User blog:410Gone/Awoken 1: Light Labs

It was another barren, lifeless day at the abandoned city, where Cain happened to find X.

A team of Reploids were led there by some strange signal, which randomly came from the lab for whatever reason. This included X, Zero, and a disinfected, repaired Axl.

Once they found the lab, some Reploids dug some rubble and sand out the way.

"Alright, this is X. I repeat, this is X.", said X through communications.

A repaired Gate, which happened to be who X was communicating with, responded. "This is Gate. What's going on, X?"

X said, "We finally opened the door. I suggest that I, Zero and Axl first check things out before the others examine everything for safety."

Gate said "Alright, remember that and be careful.", before ending the communication.

X: Alright, I guess we're going in...

X then went down the abandoned lab, followed by Axl and Zero, then the other Reploids.

It was very old and dusty inside, and seemed extremely old.

Axl: Hephaestus, this sure is dusty.

X: True that. I wonder how old this bunker is, it seems so old.

Zero: Well, people WERE wondering what happened during... The time gap... Yes...

Axl: Probs.

Soon, they found a huge iron door, which Zero cut through with his lightsaber. It revealed the capsule X was awakened from.

But it felt like something was lurking within the earth behind them...

Seeing that it might be the end of the exploration, the Reploids, including the Hunters, exit, but are stopped in their tracks when a hole forms the same spot where the strange sense was.

They all brushed it off, and proceeded to exit.

Something then came out the hole after their leave. It seemed like a younger, less detailed version of X. It was the original Rock. However, the team wasn't around to witness it.

Rock seemed critically damaged. Rock apparently noticed the footsteps, and curiously followed them slowly.

Rock saw the desertion of what used to be a famous city. After some following, Rock saw that he entered some sort of wilderness.

To be continued.
