Aeon returns normal somehow. It was a weird instance. "Huh? Hmph. What is this pla-" before he finished, something came out of the ground, blowing everything up. Without hesitation, Aeon had save the girl and the reploid. Out came a giant mech controlled by somebody familiar...."Huh?" the mech shot two gatlings at the three. " Activate! Imperial armor!" he roared, as a knight's armor materializes on his body. The dark aura then charges a large orb that vacooms the bullets. Shadows tore out of the ground and pinned the mech in the air. "Hmph. I am going to absorb him." Aeon said, as a figure appears from the smoke.

Figure

"I would not do that if I were you..."

"What the crud?!? Since when do giant mechs grow in an area with nuclear radiation? This is messed up! I'm calling in another strike and we're leaving. We aren't going to fight it and risk losing DestinyPhoenix." He picks her up and begins to ascend the stairs. He reaches the top and screams for the remaining guy to evacuate the building.

Aeon

"I'm coming! Just let me absorb this..." Aeon said, the figure was not paying attention, seeming to be making coordinates for a EMP ray. When noone is looking, Aeon flashes over to the mech, placing his hand on him. before anyone knew it, there was a large blast of energy- this was the absorbtion. "I am ready." he said, flashing over to the man. "Your name?"

"The name is DragonmanX. I'm a lone reploid on no side in particular. Although, I usually side with the law in fights. Yours?"

Aeon had walked with the man and girl away from the ruins. He felt more powered than ever. " I am Aeon, but my actual name given is Negaman. I was suppose to be the equal to the Omega in process. A prototype of this Omega, Gamma, resides in me. I am meant to either serve or destroy the reploids. I was made by Dr. Uno, and...The other is unidentified. I am going to ressurect Alexander for to use it for whoever I help last. If I become evil, I will destroy all mankind, if I become good, I will help save mankind."

*quiet through the escape, once safe she gently disengages herself from DragonmanX and blinks* Who you and why do you call me 'Destiny Phoenix'?...My code is Cera...*blinks again*

"Last time I saw you, or a reploid identical to you, the name was Destiny Phoenix. Either something happened, or you're a completely different reploid. I'm banking on something having happened.
"Seeing as you don't remember me, I'm DragonmanX. If you are the same girl I knew, then we worked together to destroy that place." He points to the old Maverick HQ. "We invaded, took over, and wiped it out completely. I saw a life form on the radar and came to find you int he basement. How'd you get there?"

Someone strange found me and put me there....*describes someone who looks like Epslion* Most files were erased and new data introduced...I'm supposed to destroy Maverick Hunters...you are not one? *sounds worried that you are*

"Sounds like Epsilon. How is he alive? We obliterated him! And of course he'd reprogram you...I'll see if I can get in there later and recover old files.
"I'm not necessarily a Maverick Hunter. I have hunted them when they stood against me or what I believe is right. But there were times when I stood with them because I believed they were right. As of currently, I'm Spec OPS for an team I used to work with. They needed some help infiltrating a base, so I worked with them and they call me up every once in a while to get my help with something.
"Let's get you back to my base and fix you up. You aren't in the best shape."

*shrugs and follows almost blindly* Where do I go after you help me?...

"I'm not sure yet. I'll see if I can get any info from what was programmed into you. More than likely, it was time-release. So I'll be keeping a close eye on your until I know for sure. If it's set to be released to your memory at a certain pace, you could end up trying to kill me for some reason.
"And once I know what you were programmed to do, then I can find out what's up with Epsilon being alive."
They approach a small building on the edge of a forest and enter. The elevator inside takes them underground.
"Welcome to your current home. You can sleep, recharge, and whatever else you need to in that room over there." He points to a room on the right. "I'm over here." He points to a room on the left. "And...that's about it. Pretty simple for now. I'll show you more a little bit later one."

*nods and looks around* Is there a facility around here as well? *touches her abdomen so it's fairly clear she's asking for a bathroom - Wily made her VERY human-like*

"Yeah. Walk in your room and there's two doors: the one on the right is a closet and the other is the facility." He smiles at her and then walks over to his gun rack and gets a large rifle. "If you'll excuse me, I heard a rodent outside. I'm gonna take a quit shot and be back."

Aeon destroyed what Dragonman was hunting for him. "What shall I do? Do you need me to do anything?" he said, taking a rifle and remodeling it with advanced programming. The gun then turned into a cannon-like sniper with a scope that can zoom as far as 1 mile. It also has a heatray bullet that melts through almost anything. The ammunition for the rifle then turned into red clips. He then loads the gun and hands it to Dragonman.

"What...? I was...ugh. Ok. Thanks for the mod, but I like plain and simple hunting rifles. I enjoy having 10 shots with no extras, except the scope, of course.
"And at this point, there's nothing I need you to do, especially considering I don't even know who you are or anything about you. Right now, I'm just going to head back into my base and you can...ummm...where do you live, anyway?
