And it wasn't just the dying on him. Losing him initially was bad enough. Then it was the X-Hunters. The remains of the most closest friend used as bait. An act so vile, X made sure his best friend's body wasn't desecrated. Fighting tirelessly to retrieve Zero.

"As long as I can still fight — you will 𝙣𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 die on me again 𝒁𝒆𝒓𝒐 . . ." There was no compromise in X's voice. He was never going through that torment again. To find a semblance of 'normal' with the only consistent friend he's had since Dr. Cain found his capsule.

X had learned by now there was no talking Zero out of covering a bill when he offered. So instead, as he adapted over the years, he made a mental note of it. He'd give Zero something back in return later. A gift or perhaps a decoration for his pod.✨

X nodded in agreement. "I tend to keep my distance, but can recognize the usefulness of close-range weaponry. Zero's even given me pointers during training simulations too." Neon optics looked at her curiously. "I've never seen a pink hedgehog before," he mused aloud.

𝐖 𝐀 𝐑 𝐍 𝐈 𝐍 𝐆 .ᐟ .ᐟ .ᐟ X's automated systems immediately tipped him off of the incoming threat. A narrow miss. Thankfully his steeled nerves kept him from flinching into its path. Tensed form facing the stranger. "Are you 𝒊𝒏𝒔𝒂𝒏𝒆.ᐟ .ᐣ There's civilians around .ᐟ Someone could've 𝗱𝗶𝗲𝗱.ᐟ"

"O-oh, good, I wouldn't want us to get in trouble over participating in festivities," he sighed in relief. Content smile, and a nod of his head. Once again not really saying he was against idea of it. Only that it'd cause issues with command. "Thanks Zero, you're the best .ᐟ"

@augmentedhumanity.bsky.social There were no active incidents to act on lately. A definite good thing, as far as X was concerned. Because of this, to remain proactive, the hunters were dispatched on various patrol routes. X currently idle at a red light. Gaze scanning the area around him.

@purifyinglegend.bsky.social It was the elephant in the room X couldn't dismiss. Why did he have armor so similar to his own? Despite reploids being massive reproductions of his own schematics, it wasn't really common — a design so similar. "If you don't mind me asking, who's your creator?"

@hammertimehedge.bsky.social "The combat capabilities of your hammer are pretty impressive," the cerulean guardian blurted out. "You must have many who can depend on you." Amy's hammer reminding him much of something Zero would use.

Genuine head tilt. It was an iconic set, yet it didn't really register initially. X looked at the first pair a split second longer before it clicked. "Do you think Commander Signas would truly believe that, and demote our positions within the organization?" Genuine concern and fluttering.

ロックマン𝕏 @hopeofthefuture.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

Silent stare instead. Neither a yes or a no. X was very passionate when it came to what it took to be a hunter. The less rebellious types like that the better . . .

ロックマン𝕏 @hopeofthefuture.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

"I'll make sure I also give my voice of disapproval to Signas about this rookie hunter.💢" No doubt having both X, and Zero reprimanding that behavior all but sealed the end of that short lived run. Last thing they needed was another Vile on the hunters again.

X didn't have to be told twice. "You sure?" A last second chance before the cerulean guardian happily went back at it. Not too fast of a speed, since he enjoyed the small talk with his best friend when possible.

Once seated, X happily dug in. Few decent spoonfuls. Content sigh let out. And then reached out, giving Zero his utensil to use. "Don't worry, I wasn't going to leave you without any either. It's great, try some .ᐟ"

"Yeah, there's quite a few food court shops to look through," he recalled with a clear sense of determination.

Quizzical assessment of the stranger once more upon the inquiry. Unsure where he was going with the topic. Whether it was going to be a reason of resentment or genuine curiosity awaited to be seen. "I'm not. I'm a reploid." X had often been referred to as a reploid, and simply coined it.

"Oh, thanks .ᐟ" Even though he's gotten that one a lot, the ever humble hunter takes the remark with modesty. Vibrant emeralds looking the other over. "You've probably seen your fair share of wonders, I'd assume .ᐣ"

𝕋𝕙𝕣𝕖𝕒𝕥 𝕝𝕖𝕧𝕖𝕝 𝕒𝕤𝕤𝕖𝕤𝕤𝕞𝕖𝕟𝕥: 𝕔𝕣𝕚𝕥𝕚𝕔𝕒𝕝. Stance resolute. Seasoned hunter of several suicide missions. Heavily on guard, he answers all the same. "I don't find much point in speaking reason with a 𝐌𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐤," he declares with such burning conviction.

The threat level manifested before him was felt instantaneously. Connection to his navigator immediately engulfed by static. Highly sophisticated processors working on overtime simply trying to analyze what loomed before him.

“That’s exactly the point. We did all we could, and countless still died.” These so called wars were nothing more than murderous rampages of the masses. And equally as much Mavericks turned into scrap heaps. Optics shutting for a second along with a soft exhale.

Slight shift in his stance. The hunter noticing one of the dedicated staff near by. "Oh, hello there." Quick pause, and glance of the former hunter.

@irregulardive.bsky.social X had been deep in thought. This museum was amazing. It really put in perspective the great strides humanity, and robotics had made. It truly was worth fighting for. This world of the two coexisting . . .

Vibrant neon emeralds traced the mysterious anomaly, and his choice of transportation. Both the optimist, and not getting any signs of aggression, the cerulean defender observes with curiosity. Patient gaze awaiting to see if this transpired into peaceful discourse.

A manifestation from cyberspace . . . Is this the work of the Zero Virus once again ? This power reading alone has X fully tense.

"It's not ideal, but we've never let go of hope. I believe in a world with humanity, and reploids coexisting together." From colony impacts to the Earth and more, humanity found itself saved from the brink by the hunters when they needed them most.

"We're a specialized task force set up by the human government to protect the peaceful inhabitants of this planet" Matter of fact delivery. It was clear X was hitting the high notes to spare his time.

Initial scans made by the highly sophisticated android's sensors gave an automatic low threat-level the moment the stranger approached X. Despite this, the cerulean guardian met the well-natured individual no different than any other civilian. Curious head tilt.
