Gate: .... What happened? I hear they avoided the collison... ... But they might as well have failed... And for this, we should be thankful? This is not all... Something else is going to happen. I feel uneasy. What is this? ..... Hmm? This is.... ..... Debris. But what from? Was there any violent battle here? I wonder how amny people and Reploids were sacrificed? Um? Wait... Th... This is! .....
One Week Later
Gate: Bwah ha ha ha! It's finally done!! I'm going mad and it is so..... Liberating! .... No. The plan has only just begun... I'm going to bring all low-grade Reploids into submission! Those too simple to understand my work!! I'll bulid an ideal world only for Reploids.... A wonderful world where I control everything!

??: ..... E.... x.... X.... X! Wake up, X. Now, you're the only one. There is no one else is left to fight. Get up now! X!!
Alia: ..... x.... X! A giant Maverick is acting up! Wake up! I'll send the detailed info later. You rush to the scene!

Alia: Most of the Mechaniloids became Mavericks .... It's been a long time.... Stay alert X!
X: I'll be fine since I have the armor and Saber.
Alia: Since I fixed the Falcon armor very quickly, the dash function is incomplete.
X: All right. Anyway, I will stop the Mechaniloids.
Alia: Ok. Go to the entrance of the ruins ahead!

Alia: If the buster fails, use the Z Saber.
X: Yes. It is time to ask for Zero's power.

X: There you are! Are you all right?
Hunters: Beyond here is a giant Mechaniloid. It suddenly acticvated due to a radio wave problem. We are afraid and we got hurt...
X: I'll take care of this. Return to the Hunter Base now.
Hunters: All right. It acts like it's possessed. Be careful...

Alia: Z.... Zero?!
High Max: I knew Zero was doing this.
X: Who are you?!
High Max: High Max... I am called... I'm investigating the Zero Nightmare.
X: What! did you say the Zero Nightmare?
High Max: What are you trying to do? What is your connection to the Zero Nightmare?
X: What about Zero? You are behind this!
High Max: You are dangerous... I'll dispose of you.

High Max: Maverick Hunter.... Not amazing. We will destory the Zero Nightmare. You are not wanted here. Keep out.
X: I could not inflict any damage on him.... High Max. The Zero.... Night... Mare.... Hmm, did I dream about Zero? What is happening?

Isoc: Attention all Reploids on Earth! As you all know, these are chaotic, disturbing times. The "NIGHTMARE" is upon us. It shows Reploids a knid of "Dream" for human beings.... No, it's a "Nightmare". The Nightmare makes Reploids confused. In the worst case, they may malfunction or delete themselves. Due to the Space Colony incidnet, there are few Reploids or humans are left on the Earth... We won't accept sacrifice anymore! this would bring us to the Earth Crisis. Taking the matter seriously, we have sent Investigators to the eight suspected areas to uncover the mystery of the Nightmare Phenomena. It's said that the Nightmare Phenomena are caused by.... A ghost of Zero.... Known as an Ace Maverick Hunter...
X: What!? What are you talking about?!
Alia: Wait, X. Let him finish his story.
X: Ugh....
Isoc: Now, I'd like to call on volunteers! Unite with us, and help our cause! Work for these eight investigators!! Our goal is to wipe out the Nightmare... And to delete the Zero's Ghost! Come together for our future!! This High Max will lead the mission. We guarantee your safety if you join us. Both Maverick Hunters and Reploids now suffer. Let's preserve out future togehter! We're waiting for you! Everyone!
X: ...... How dare! He talks about Zero that way... Zero gave his life to save us!
Alia: It can't be helped now. Actually we saw the Nightmare too. Shaped as Zero. So, we also need to investigate what the Nightmare is. For now, leave Isoc and High Max alone.
X: I wonder what are those "Suspected areas" he mentioned. Can you find out, Alia?
Alia: .... No. Due to a strong jamming, I can't look in to it from here.
X: So I've got to go in there blind! Maybe I'll be able to feel the Nightmare directly. Besides, I'm suspicious of the Investigators.
Signas: The Nightmare.... The mission is risky, But we must minimize the damage by uncovering and defeating it. As Isoc said, we cannot allow anymore Reploids to be lost.... X! Return to the Hunter Base now!
X: Roger! I'll be back right away!

Signas: We are now beginning our mission to check the 8 areas that Isoc had sent investigators to investigate the Nightmare Phenomena! But considering the situation of the Maverick Hunters, you are the only Hunter who could accomplish these difficult missions. As we've lost Zero, you are our only hope.... Can you do it, X?
X: I'll do it.
Alia: I've just obtained the report on the Nightmare Areas and the investigators sent to the areas. However, the details of the situations in the areas are still unkown, due to bad radar transmission. Also, in case any chages occur in the Nightmare Area, I'll show you by a red signal. It is difficult to predict what the changes are, though.....
X: That's okay, I'll know when I get there. I will discover what the Nightmares are and what Isoc's intensions are.
Signas: Don't push yourself too hard, X. Remember you are our only hope.
X: Roger.
Alia: Ummm....... X.......
X: What is it, Alia?
Alia: Ummm..... Nothing..... Just be careful.....
Signas: Some Reploids may accept what Isoc says as true and come to the Nightmare Areas.... If you find them, secure them and then send them to the Hunter Base. Good luck, X!

Alia: You found a mysterious item. It's related to the Nightmare. Let's call it the Nightmare Soul.

X: Dynamo?! You're alive!?
Dynamo: I'm sorry, if I made you worry, but you know what they say, "Discretion is the better part of valor." We now have the Nightmares and the imposter of Zero.....
X: Did you come here only to tease me? Just leave, now.
Dynamo: Why don't we talk a little longer? Say.... Let's see who has obtained more Nightmare Souls!
Dynamo: I'm not up to defeating you.....

Dynamo: How are you doing?
X: Dynamo! Hurry and get out of here! You are good at running away, aren't you?
Dynamo: Very clever, but I am here for the Nightmares. I've been gathering them, thinking that I might be able to enhance my powers..... So, will you do me a favor? Give me all the DNA Souls you have gathered!
Dynamo: Oh, give me a break.....

Dynamo: Long time no see!
X: Dynamo! Why are you here!?
Dynamo: Nightmare Souls. They're very good..... I will get the Souls that you collected!
Dynamo: I still can't win! Bye, X!

X: Are you alive? Dynamo!
Dynamo: You look well. You are so persistant. Before I was protected by Sigma, but now I will take control of my own life by making use of the Nightmare!
X: Dynamo, don't waste my time. Leave here!
Dynamo: So it's simple. Give up the Nightmare Soul and go back!
Dynamo: You are too strong. We'll meet again, X!

X: Dynamo! What are you doing here?
Dynamo: I came here for the Nightmare. I'm attuned to the fashions of the time, you know.....
X: Stay away from thje Nightmare! It's too dangerous!
Dynamo: That's why they are worth checking! The Nightmare Souls are MINE!
Dynamo: Hmm........ I'm not strong enough...... Until mext time, X!

X: Dynamo! You again?!
Dynamo: You loook very busy all the time. I'm interested in the Nightmare and its investigation.
X: It's dangerous! Stop it! Please do not get in my way!
Dynamo: OK OK, you always get mad. But.... I want many Souls.... Even yours!
Dynamo: I can't beat you. Until next time!

Dynamo: Hard work and no play makes X go crazy! Hee hee hee!
X: Dynamo! It's you, again.
Dynamo: It takes hours for me to get here. I won't go back empty-handed. I've been gathering Nightmare Souls at the risk of my life. I've been dying to become stronger.... Do you want to challenge me?
Dynamo: You are way too strong.....

Dynamo: Have you solved the mystery of the Nightmares?
X: Dynamo! This is not your business!
Zero: That's none of your business! Leave!
Dynamo: The Nightmare Soul is nice DNA. I want to power-up with it. So I will take the Souls you collected!
Dynamo: Drat. You're too serious. Later, X!

Zero: Dynamo?! You are alive, too!?
Dynamo: I'm sorry, if I made you worry, but you know what they say, "Discretion is the better part of valor." We now have the Nightmares and your imposter......
Zero: Shut up. Leave or fight.
Dynamo: Don't be so angry.

Dynamo: You are very impresive.....
Zero: Again......
Dynamo: You know, It takes hours for me to come this far.

Zero: How persistant you are, Dynamo?
Dynamo: You are also persistant.... Now that Sigma is finished, I must survive by myself.... By making use of the Nightmares!
Zero: The Nightmare is too dangerous! Stop it!
Dynamo: Then give me the Nightmare Soul, OK?

Zero: Dynamo! What are you doing here?
Dynamo: I came here for the Nightmare. I'm attuened to the fashions of the time, you know......
Zero: The Nightmares are too dangerous to play around with!
Dynamo: That's why they are worth checking! The Nightmare Souls are MINE!
Dynamo: I'm not strong enough..... Later!

Zero: Dynamo! You're pesky!
Dynamo: You must be busy dying so many times.
Zero: I won't die in such a trifle battle!
Dynamo: You're always passionate.

Zero: Save us time and run away now.....
Dynamo: Shut up! I maybe a coward, but I'm here for the Nightmares!

Dynamo: Long time no see!
Zero: Sorry but I will never go with you.
Dynamo: Don't be cruel. By the way.... Nightmare Souls.... I want them all! I will get the souls that you collected!
Dynamo: I just can't win. Bye, Zero!

Dr. Light: Zero..... I'm glad to see again.
Zero: .... I will never die. I don't really remember, but when I came to, I could move..... I don't know if the recovery function worked.....
Dr. Light: ....... The world still needs you and X........... So you came back to life, didn't you? We must put an end to this Nightmare.... Please give X this Armor Program...... However, for security reason, the armor won't work until the four programs combine. For the Earth, for the future. Good luck!

Isoc: I have a report. An investigator was already....
Gate: .... Destoryed by that Maverick Hunter. I know. It's shameful they can't beat that mysterious old robot.... Isoc! Keep an eye on that Hunter for a while.
Isoc: Yes, sir!
Gate: Oh, how is the experiment going?
Isoc: Everything is going great and the effect is brilliant. We achieved 99.98% success rate by now. This is an amazing invention. But, if you use High Max, in just minutes you can control all Reploids on Earth. Even the Maverick Hunter was no match.
Gate: No. Continue the experiment for now. I want you to keep gathering data.
Isoc: Yes, sir.
Gate: By the way, have you found what you're looking for? I guess it doesn't exist in this world.....
Isoc: Oh, no. It does. I've seen him..... Besides he isn't some low Reploid that would die in such a trivial battle.
Gate: I'll admit he's as persistant as X. Alive or not, there are many options.
Isoc: I'll find out for sure.
Gate: Hmm. It doesn't matter to me. You are on your own. I don't need the "Body of Zero" ...... Anyway, just do the work and keep an eye on X.
Isoc: Yes, sir.

Isoc: I have a report. Another invesigator has been beaten....
Gate: Blast..... That old robot is tenacious.
Isoc: You are quite right, sir. Especially that red Reploid..... Zero has outstanding performance. I believe he will cause problems for us if we don't take measures now....
Gate: I'm no longer interested in Zero. High Max will defeat Zero before long.
Isoc: There is no doubt it will be easy for High Max..... But we better make a move just in case.
Gate: Isoc, I have been thinking about that. You're obsessed with Zero, aren't you?
Isoc: No, no, I'm not.....
Gate: Then leave that old robot and focus on the experiment.
Isoc: Yes sir, I'm doing just that. It's going smoothly and effectively. We achieved 99.98% success rate by now. So I assume the experiment is done.
Gate: Then it's time for the next phase.... Ha ha ha. It's going to be fun..... Isoc.
Isoc: I'm sure, sir.
Gate: Keep an eye on those two Maverick Hunters.
Isoc: I shall obey your orders.

X: What do you think you are doing?!
Zero Nightmare: Zero... Where is Zero...?
X: You don't need to know that!
Zero Nightmare: Ha! It is you who will be eliminated!

X: I've found you at last!
Zero Nightmare: Let's fight together to retire the Mavericks, just like we used too....
X: Fine. The first subject to be retired is YOU!
Zero Nightmare: So you've become a Maverick. I was worried that you might..... I'll retire you, personally!

Zero Nightmare: Where is Zero? WHERE IS MY ZERO?!
X: Is he going crazy? Who is he anyway??
Zero Nightmare: DESTORY.... DESTORY..... DESTORY YOU!

X: Stop this ridiculous game! You're crazy!
Zero Nightmare: WHERE IS ZERO? WHERE IS HE HIDING? A BLUE ROBOT. EMENY OF ZERO..... KILL YOU!

X: Who are you? I won't let anybody stop me.
Zero Nightmare: It's me, X. Don't you recognize me?
X: I know. You are just a cheesy fake. What do you want? What's in your mind?
Zero Nightmare: X, I've been looking for my hunters....... To wipe out! Time to die! X!

X: Who are you?
Zero Nightmare: X, it's me. Don't you recognize me? I was damaged so badly by the Nightmare that the color of my body has been changed....
X: Stop it! You can't fool me!
Zero Nightmare: You have become so insane that you can't even recognize me? That means that you have become a Maverick.... As a Maverick Hunter and your friend, I'll retire you, myself!

X: Hey you! Quit fooling around!
Zero Nightmare: I'm not fooling around..... The fake me appeared. I don't know what's happening.
X: ......... Shut up! I will not forgive you! Never!
Zero Nightmare: Don't you know who I am? ................. Fine. You will be dead anyway. Heh heh heh, die! X!

X: Who created you? What for? Answer me!
Zero Nightmare: I AM ZERO.......
X: ..... You can't talk normally?
Zero Nightmare: BLUE..... LIGHT..... KILL..... KILL!

Zero: My reputation has been damaged while away... Being thought of as some stupid toy....
X: ..... Zero? Zero!! You're alive?
Zero: Huh. So, X is alive, is he? Seems Sigma didn't defeat me after all.
X: But I searched all over for your parts, your signal, but I found nothing, so...
Zero: That is most unfortunate. I hid myself while I tried to repair myself. I had to wait until I was healed. Well, it's been an emotional reuion. But now we must face the Nightmare.
X: If the Reploids are eradicated, then the mankind... No the Earth itself will face a crisis.
Zero: Let's go, X! Destory the Nightmares!
X: Yes. We will join hands... And never let anyone sever us again! Let's go, Zero!

Signa: I know that you have only just returned, but I need to ask you something... Will you help X and carry out the missions?
Zero: It is my job. I am a Maverick Hunter.... I have been away for a while... But I am ready to fight for peace!

Alia: This is the Amazon Area. I can't understand the situation there from the Hunter Base. I wonder if the Nightmare caused this jamming.

Alia: It appears to be a transport Mechanloid. It has a loading space on its back.

X: Alia! I got some unusual data signal.
Alia: It must be the Nightmare! Stay alert!

Zero: Alia! What is this unusual signal?
Alia: It must be the Nightmare! Stay alert!
Zero: Is this the Nightmare? I see...

X: I got a strong data signal. It should be...
Alia: From an investigator. The Investigator here is Commander Yammark. To be on the safe side, be sure to set up the weapon.
X: All right. I'll do it.

Zero: I feel a strong power.... Is this an Investigator?
Alia: The Investigator here is Commander Yammark. Be ready for battle just in case....
Zero: I am always ready. I will destory the crazy Invesitgator.

Zero: You're the Nightmare Investigator, Commander Yammark?
Commander Yammark: Yes! I'm in charge of the Amazon Area. Tell me! What will you do with the Nightmare?
Zero: Are you serious? It is your silly toy!
Commander Yammark: Maverick Hunters and Reploid Researchers are all liars! I may end up betrayed and deleted! So I will delete you first!

X: You're the Nightmare Investigator, Commander Yammark?
Commander Yammark: Yes! I'm in charge of the Amazon Area. Tell me! What is Zero up to? You must know something.
X: Zero has nothing to do with this! Stop accusing him!
Commander Yammark: I won't trust both the Maverick Hunter and Reploid Researcher. I don't know what you're thinking... I won't end up betrayed and deleted! I will delete you first!

Alia: Commander Yammark. An ex-investigator in the Amazon Area. He was a Reploid created for the nature preservation project. He burnt the forest by control disorder. He wasn't accused of the incident, but..... Someone altered Yammark's flying system...... He crashed and died. He was created by..... My colleague.... Gate.

X: What!? What's the huge Reploid?!
Alia: You are in the Weapon Center.... They have been constructing powerful weapons without the appropriate approvals. A huge Reploid.... I assume it's Illumina. Considering that I couldn't pick up any reading of its activation, it must be a Nightmare. There has to be cables which are sending energy to Illumina! find and desotry them! Good luck!

Zero: That's Illumina! I thought the project to construct that huge Reploid was suspended....
Alia: You are in the Weapon Center.... They have been constructing powerful weapons without the appropriate approvals. As you notice, it's Illumina. Considering that I couldn't pick up any reading of its activation, it must be a Nightmare. There has to be cables which are sending energy to Illumina! Find and destory them! Good luck!!

Alia: The investigator sent to this area is Infinity Mijinion. Stay sharp because he may have very powerful weapons!
Zero: I won't lose!

Infinity Mijinion: Someone comes......
X: Infinity Mijinion! You are one of the investigators of the Nightmares, aren't you?
Infinity Mijinion: You seem to be hard to deal with...... Why must I cover up for the lack in ability of the other investigators? Hmm? How did you come this far? Don't say you destoryed my sweet Illumina......
X: I destoryed such a dangerous Reploid!!
Infinity Mijinion: No! I was still conducting a test or two on her.....! I wanted to use her to destory all the idiots! Now I'm angry, and that means you're dead!

Infinity Mijinion: Uh? Weren't you dead?
Zero: You heard wrong. You are Infinity Mijinion, one of the Investigators for the Nightmares, aren't you?
Infinity Mijinion: Are the other Investigators useless fleas? That's the only explanation as to why I have to clean up their messes..... But wait... Why are you here anyway? Don't tell me you destoryed my sweet Illumina!
Zero: What do you think?
Infinity Mijinion: I haven't even tested her! And I was thinking that I'll destory all the thick-headed so-called "Authorities" with her....! You will die!!

Alia: Infinity Mijinion. Ex-test pilot for large weapons. He had a special body that could process at a high speed. He ignored the test program, choosing instead to go on his own schedule. He produced excellent results..... But he always had trouble with the other staff. Even Gate was unable to control him.... One day, he was disposed of by making it look like an accident.....

Alia: You are in Inami Temple. It's an important cultural asset.
X: But it has been decastated by the collision of the Colony!
Alia: Don't think about that now. Just concentrate on the Nightmares.....
X: Right, we must eliminate the Nightmares!

Alia: You are in Inami Temple. It's an important cultural asset.
Zero: Why does the Nightmare Phenomena have to happen here of all places? What are they plotting?
Alia: ...... We'd better save the Reploids.... I'm counting on you, Zero.
Zero: Okay, I'm on my way, Alia!

X: What? It's raining! But it's not just normal rain, it's.... ACID RAIN!
Alia: It is cloudy in that area, but I can't detect any rain there. It has to be the work of the Nightmare! What's your condition?
X: A bit damaged, but still functional. However, it's strange that I've been recovering while I'm on this machine.
Alia: I can't guranatee your safety, but it's better to use them if they are helpful.... But I'm worried about the rain. Is there a way to stop the Nightmare Rain?

Zero: Darn! It's some kind of a trap?! It's raining!
Alia: I don't pick up any sign of rain in that area. It must be the Nightmare Phenomena..... Stay alert!
Zero: I am gradually getting damaged.... However, it's strange that I've been recovering when I'm on this machine....
Alia: I can't guarantee your safety, but it's better to use them if they are helpful... But I'm worried about the rain.... Is there anyway to stop the Nightmare Rain?

X: Hmm? This weather analyzer seems to be out of control! What's worse is that the four cores have been creating the barrier. I have to destory those scattered cores!
Zero: Alia, this machine seems to be out of control! And make the matter worse, it's protected by a thick barrier. The cores seem to have been establishing a barrier.
Alia: Watch out for the damage caused by the Nightmare Rain! Destory the cores! Be careful!

Alia: It has stopped raining, but you still have to....
X: Yes. I still have to cope with more Nightmare Rain later.... Oh no! That means other Reploids are in danger! I'm coming to the scence, Alia!
Zero: I know..... And that means the other Reploids are in danger! I have to hurry!

Alia: The investigator sent to this area is Rainy Turtloid. There are many dangers already present here, so stay alert!

X: Rainy Turtloid! You must be one of the investigators of the Nightmares.
Rainy Turtloid: I've heard a lot about you. You have my respect.
X: Huh? Respect? Then will you stop the Nightmare Phenomena for me?
Rainy Turtloid: Nightmare.... It is the only thing that can save the future of Reploids....
X: What are you talking about?! They have hurt us all....
Rainy Turtloid: It is my duty to believe my master.... My master was punished because of me.... And yet, he let me live. That is why.... I'll do what I have to do, even if it means my life....
X: Turtloid! I know you can understand. You know what you should do right now.
Rainy Turtloid: X, I understand what you mean, but it's mu duty. It's also my duty to elimanate anything that disturbs my master.... X, my life is yours!
X: No! I don't want to fight you!

Zero: Are you Rainy Turtloid?
Rainy Turtloid: Zero, the famous Maverick Hunter! X and Zero are Reploids I respect.
Zero: Fine. So Don't fight me, help me.
Rainy Turtloid: I've been resurrected to carry out an important duty. A very important duty given by my master.... Though I brought shame on my master, he allowed me to live. That's why... I have to finish my duty, even if it means sacrificing my life.
Zero: I see....

Alia: Rainy Turtloid. Ex-investigator of the water-purity improvement team. He had tortoise shell sheild to counter the strong acid rain. Thanks to him, we can explore areas that have a pollution level A. But his high defense ability was reguarded as too dangerous. Requests to weaken Turtloid ran high. Gate opposed this and was punished. Turtloid was so loyal to Gate..... In the end, he died to save Gate.

Alia: This is the Recycle Laboratory. Parts of disposed Mavericks are recycled here. All operations should be stopped now. How are things going?
X: The belt conveyer is stopped but a large compressor is working.
Zero: Large machines are working overhead.
Alia: It must be the work of the Nightmare.... There is no signal. Be careful not to get caught in the compressor.

Zero: I found the Ride Armor..... Can I get by the compressor with this?
Alia: You should be fine. But just be careful.
X: I'll try not to get scrapped!

Alia: X! Zero! Piles of junk narrows the path, you will be gone if you get squished by the compressor.
X: I know. I'll be careful.
Zero: Ok. I'll move carefully.

X: Now belt converyers are also moving!
Zero: The belt conveyer is moving!
Alia: The Nightmare should be doing this, but I can't see any changes here. We don't know what will happen. Stay alert!
Zero: At least I'm not bored.
Alia: Wait! You can't jump across a spint area. What can we do?

X: I got a strong energy signal! It must be an investigator!
Zero: Here comes the boss of the junk.
Alia: The investigator here is Metal Shark Player. Stay on guard!

X: You! What are you up to? Instead of investigating the Nightmare, you are manipulating it! It's strange that you are not affected by the Nightmare.
Metal Shark Player: Heh heh heh. You have excellent DNA, don't you? I'd like to analyze your DNA once.
X: You must be Metal Shark Player, right?
Metal Shark Player: It doesn't matter! I'll get your DNA!

Metal Shark Player: What are you doing?
Zero: I don't have time for this..... What do you want? Metal Shark Player?
Metal Shark Player: I want DNA! Excellent DNA! But I don't need your DNA Data.
Zero: Shut up and fight!
Metal Shark Player: Fine! Heh heh heh!

Alia: Metal Shark Player. An ex-investigator of Recycle Team. He studied recycling in order to create a new Reploid from parts of disposed Maverick. His most important work was to analyze and control DNA Data of Mavericks. His analysis ability was so great, that he succeeded in resurrecting dead Mavericks. Since DNA resurrection is explicitly prohibited, the law instantly dealt with him. Gate was also interested in DNA resurrection, so he encouraged him to collect the DNA Data instead of stopping him. Metal Shark Player would have continued if Gate had stopped him.

Alia: You are now in the Central Musuem. Its appearance has completey changed.
X: It's dead quiet. I wonder what kind of Nightmare awaits me.....
Alia: Let's move on.

Alia: You are in the Central Musuem, or should I say " In the building that used to be the Central Musuem...." The place has completely changed its appearances!
Zero: This place is deserted..... That is good because now I can concentrate on my mission.
Alia: Okay, let's go!

X: What's this? A totem pole?
Alia: I can't detect any sign of a totem pole.... It must be the work of the Nightmare! Be careful!

Zero: Why is there a totem pole here? I don't pick up any life signs....
Alia: I can't detect any sign of a totem pole.... It must be the work of the Nightmare! Be careful!

Zero: What location? Alia..... Can you read my location? Alia? ..... The transmission is jammed again..?
Zero: Oh, not again.... Give me a break. What a waste of time!
Zero: Now what? It's useless to try to think about it...
Zero: What is this place? Alia! Can you read my location?! Huh? Alia! ...... Jammed transmission? I'll do it on my own....
Zero: .... What happened? Where am I now?
Zero: What is this place?
Zero: Was I thrown off course? Alia! ...... The communications out?
Zero: I've reached an open space at last.... But a bigger room can only mean a bigger challenge awaits!
Zero: Another virtual area...... What do the Nightmares want.....
Zero: Now what? It's useless to try to think about it.
Zero: Hmm? I sense something exists near here.....
Zero: Where am I? Alia.... I can't contact....
Zero: A different area.....
Zero: I feel a little wind coming from somewhere near....
Zero: What is this location, anyway!? Can you read my location, Alia? Alia...... Jammed transmission...... Okay then.....

X: I feel a little wind coming from somewhere near....
X: Oh, no. What's this palce? Alia!! Hm? Alia! ....... I'm out of the transmission range? Where am I anyway!?
X: Oh? What's this place? Alia, can you analyze where I am? Alia..... Alia? Alia! The communications are out......
X: The virtual are again. Still.... What was the purpose in the Nightmares transforming the museum to something so different?
X: I've reached an open area, but there are lots of strong enemies. I guess nothing is easy.....
X: Ooh..... Wh...... What happened!? Alia! Am I out of the transmission range? What is happening here?!
X: Where am I now? It's probably better to move than think right now.....
X: Hmm? I sense somthing.....
X: What is this place? What am I supposed to do next?
X: This isn't the same area....
X: Was I thrown off course? Alia! Tell me where I am..... ..... The communication is out?
X: Is this the Amazon area? Something is different..... What's happening?
X: Huh? What is this place? Alia? What just happened?
X: ......What happened? Where am I now?
X: ......... What happened? Where am I now?
X: Where am I? Alia..... I can't contact.....

Alia: It's been a long mission. You must be tired. The investigator sent to this area is Ground Scaravich. Stay alert!

X: Ground Scaravich! You must be the burglar of ruins! What are you doing here?
Ground Scaravich: Well, well, well..... What have we here...... Why, it's officer X. This is horrible! Why do I have to face someone like you here?!
X: Be a smart Reploid and give me the information on the Nightmares.
Ground Scaravich: I'd rather just see what DNA Data you have!

Zero: Ground Scaravich! Why do you need to steal from another ruin? Hmm.... You seem to be very close to the Nightmares.......
Ground Scaravich: I am cursed, I know it! You are Zero..... I heard you were dead. I really wanted to obtain your DNA Data, but I no longer need it.
Zero: What do you mean?
Ground Scaravich: You can fight me to find out!

Alia: Ground Scaravich, an ex-treasure hunter. He was devoted to the research on an ancient site. He also had lots of research data on ancient robots. Gate took care of Scaravich in exchange for the ancient data. Gate improved his knowledge from him. Then Gate had him go to a forbidden area. It was the place that you were both discovered. I saw Scaravich enter the place..... I felt bad, but I disposed him. Gate didn't seem to care...... I didn't want to remember this.....

Alia: This is the Magma Area a dangerous area to invesitgate is the Hot Spot that spews magmas.
Zero: It's dangerous wherever I go.
X: I've never seen this color of the magma. Is this the Nightmare?
Alia: Although I can't confirm it due to the jamming, it must be the Nightmare. I have never heard of magmas that were that color. Stay alert!
Zero: I don't care. I just move forward.

X: I found a giant mechaniloid ahead! I think its weak point is the green core.
Zero: I found a giant mechaniloid....
Alia: Mechaniloid? There is no data signal. It must be the Nightmare.
X: Is this the Nightmare? Who created this? What for?
Zero: The Nightmare. I'll crush it! It's weak point is obvious.

X: Alia, this area is very hot! What's up?
Alia: If I remember right, it is Hot Spot! But I can't confirm temperature changes from the Hunter Base.
X: Looks like I'm in very bad place.... Is this also the Nightmare?

Alia: Zero! It is the Hot Spot! Watch out!
Zero: It's too hot....

Alia: It is also a Hot Spot! Watch out!
X: There are more fields of magmad. It's getting hotter! I should be careful not to fall.

Alia: It's another Hot Spot! Stay alert!
Zero: Magmas are ready to destory me... I won't die here. I'll move quickly!

X: The further I go, the hotter it gets. The investigator must be this way.
Zero: It's getting hotter and hotter.... The investigator must be ahead.
Alia: The investigator for this area is Blaze Heatnix. Prepare yourself. Find out its weak point, just in case.

Blaze Heatnix: Welcome! I've been waiting for you! You are strong compared to the others. I was bored because there is no strong Reploid left on the ground. Although I was ordered not to kill, it's too hard, isn't it? Hee hee hee.
X: You must be Blaze Heatnix......
Blaze Heatnix: Brain washing Reploids is lame. Don't you think so? Let's fight to see who's the strongest!

Zero: It's too hot here. Let's finish this....
Blaze Heatnix: A vigorous girl! I've been waiting! You look so strong compared with the others. I was bored because there is no strong Reploid left on the ground. Although I was ordered not to kill, it's too hard, isn't it? Hee hee hee.
Zero: I'm not interested in your talk... Will you fight or not?
Blaze Heatnix: Good. Let's fight!

Alia: Blaze Heatnix. An ex-investigator for the Hot Spot. His ability is far beyond the others. He could research any dangerous area. All other members who fell behind were killed.... Gate, who created Heatnix, improved his powers and strengths. In order to prevent any more victims, Heatnix was disposed deep underground.

Alia: You are in the Laser Institute. It's one of the most mysterious places in the world. Umm... Since this institute does not officially exist, we don't have much data on it.
Zero: But we know this place is full of wonders. I'll check it out.
X: But it is obvious that this facility is infected by the Nightmare, so I'll check it out.

X: Huh? They are leavitating. But why?
Zero: Huh? Why are they levitating. Are there invisible floors or something?
Alia: I've never encountered this kind of situation, but that's the only logical explanation. Maybe you can use your weapons.

Zero: There are laser units.... and the light reflectors.... The reflectors seem to be inflecting the laser.
Alis: I've witnessed an experiment of the device that inflect the laser before. In that experiment, you could turn the devices. I'm not sure if those devices are same ones though, because they are not visible from here. But one thing I'm sure is that they are Nightmare Phenomena.
X: It is. What a painstaking Nightmare Phenonmena!
Zero: I'll try to utilize the laser and see what happens.

Alia: Turning the light reflectors to make the laser change directions.... It's like a puzzle game.
Zero: Whatever....

Alia: The investigator sent to this area is Shield Sheldon. Make sure to get your wea......
Zero: Shield Sheldon? Isn't he..... He is now an investigator. So be it.
X: You said Shield Sheldon? Oh no, has he been resurrected? And he has become an investigator?

X: Shield Sheldon! I thought it was you....
Shield Sheldon: Sure.
X: I'm very sorry about the case. If only I could have been there in time.
Shield Sheldon: Don't be. I couldn't fulfill my role as a bodyguard, that's all.
X: You had been protecting the professor. When the professor became a Maverick, there was no other way. Our officers misinterpreted your action and you were hunted as a Maverick. And then you retired yourself. That was so unfortunate....
Shield Sheldon: I couldn't prevent the professor from becoming a Maverick. I failed to protect him. But I'm going to fulfill the duty as a bodyguard now. He gave me a second chance.... I'll protect him, even though I may have to sacrifice my life for it! Come on! X!

Zero: Shield Sheldon..... Too bad about your previous life....
Shield Sheldon: Don't be. I was new as a bodyguard. That's all.
Zero: Maverick Hunters are supposed to be able to tell a Maverick from a Reploid..... Our officers are not good enough.... They could cost us everything.....
Shield Sheldon: Reploids all over the world have been needing you. I was useless as a bodyguard.... And was useless to everyone else. When I accepted that fact, I accepted my fate. However, there turned out to be someone who needs me. He has given me one more chance.... And therefore, I am going to fulfill my mission as a bodyguard now. I'll protect him, even if it means that I have to sacrifice my life. Come on, Zero!

Alia: Shield Sheldon. Ex-security police. He guarded Dr. Jim who was an important person in the laboratory. Suddenly, Dr. Jim became a Maverick. However, he was able to control himself. The Maverick Hunters identified Sheldon as a Maverick just because he was created by Gate. Sheldon could not deal with being labled, and so he ended it all.

Alia: This is the North Pole Area. Do you feel cold? Are you all right?
Zero: I'm all right.... Thanks for asking.
Alia: How is the situaion over there?
X: Everything's frozen, and slippery..... I gotta go!

Alia: It's hard due to the slippery surfaces. Utilize the evacuation spot wisely as you go though the area.

Alia: The land is corrupted and there are many holes everywhere. If you are about to slip and fall, jump directly above! If you try to turn back, you will slip. You had better stop by jumping.

Alia: Although we can't see the Nightmare of ice from the Hunter Base. I wonder if there is a way I can take advantage of this situation?

X: I got a strong signal! This must be an investigator.
Zero: I feel.... This must be an invertigator!
Alia: The investigator in this area is Blizzard Wolfang. Set up your weapons in case you need to fight.................. X......... Zero, actually I............
X: Um? What's up?
Alia: No. Be careful! Er, Wolfang was.........
X: You know something about Wolfang?
Alia: No, nothing........ Good luck, X.
Zero: Forget about the past.
Alia: Zero! Do you know? Wolfang was....
Zero: Now he is a Nightmare investigator. We have to fight him.
Alia: Yeah, right. Good luck, Zero.

X: Are you the Nightmare Investigator, Blizzard Wolfang?
Blizzard Wolfang: Yes, I came back for this important mission. An error cost me my men and problems for Gate. To add to that disgrace, Reploid Reseachers trapped me and...... Never mind. What's done is done..... This is my mission. I'm sorry but I will delete you! Maverick Hunter!

Zero: Blizzard Wolfang, nice to see you....
Blizzard Wolfang: Zero! I heard that you returned.
Zero: I won't die so easily.
Blizzard Wolfang: Don't think badly of me, Zero. I won't disobey Gate. I must pay for my past sins. Besides I have a new mission. You know what I mean. Let's fight!
Zero: I have no choice. You will lose!

Alia: Blizzard Wolfang. An ex-leader investigator of the North Pole Area. One day, his team members were attacked by Mavericks. Although Wolfang was able to defeat the Mavericks, his team members were annihilated.... Researchers who oppose Gate schemed to dispose of Wolfang and took advantage of the incident.... They made it look like an accident, Wolfang was thrown into the cold sea........ I did it! But I was deceived into doing it......

High Max: I have no interest in an incompetent Maverick Hunter.
X: Withdraw all the Nightmares and the investigators!
High Max: Let's not talk about. Let's fight about it!

High Max: You don't quit, do you?
X: Release the Reploids! And where is Isoc?
High Max: You don't need to know!

X: Abort your lame plan! And tell Isoc to do the same.
High Max: I won't take orders from you!

High Max: You have no need to be here. Leave.
X: Why are you with the Nightmare? Stop it!
High Max: That's what I'm supposed to say. Leave, Maverick!

High Max: You again..... Haven't you learned yet? You stand no chance of winning....
X: I won't yield to evil!
High Max: ....... Silence. I will delete you.

High Max: What made you come here?
X: I came here to stop the Nightmare Phenomena! They must be your doings....
High Max: You are very persistant. I'll make sure I destory you!

High Max: I'm warning you. Do not get in the way of our important investigation.
X: What are you investigating? Why are you so deep in this deadly area?
High Max: I won't waste anymore time. I'll delete you now!

High Max: You again? You will never beat me.
X: Do not involve innocent Reploids!
High Max ....... You're annoying. I will delete you.

High Max: I've been expecting you, Nightmare scum!
Zero: What is your intention?
High Max: You don't need to know!

High Max: You're not wanted here. Do not disturb our important investigation.
Zero: Your investigation? Come on! You're examining the Nightmare!
High Max: You are a nuisance. I'll delete you.

High Max: You Nightmare Scum! What made you come here?
Zero: I came here to elimate you.
High Max: No! It's you who will be eliminated!

High Max: You offend me, so I'll delete you!
Zero: You are the offensive one!
High Max: ...... Annoying. I shall delete you!

High Max: Here comes a nuisance....
Zero: I don't think you are helpful. Leave.
High Max: Hey! That's my line!

High Max: Nightmare scum! You have appeared at last!
Zero: Shut up! All of you, withdraw!
High Max: Let's not talk about, let's fight about it!

High Max: The Nightmare.... What are you doing here?
Zero: What are you talking about?
High Max: .... Silence. I will delete you.

Zero: Why do you try to hide with such a big body?
High Max: It is you who were trying to hide!

High Max: No! I can't believe this. I'm superior to him in every respect, the speed, the power, and the body.... An old robot like you can't beat me. This can't be true!
Isoc: Ummmm. High Max is down.... Kugh! We'd better withdraw for now!
X: Wait! You can't escape!
Isoc: You ancient piece of junk, it's not over! I'll destory you myslef! For the time being, farewell!
Signas: X! Cool down! We don't want to lose you. You may be damaged in the battle. Return to the Hunter Base, now!
X: Darn! So close.... But I must be cautious.... Roger that! I'll be back!

Isoc: Hee hee hee. Ha ha ha ha ha!
Zero: What makes you laugh?
Isoc: Ah ha ha ha! I can't help it! X was no match for High Max, but you.... Ha hah. I can't stop laughing!
Zero: ......... Are you out of your mind? I just destoryed one of your own.... What is so funny? Anyway, you're the last one.... I'll crush you now!
Isoc: Nuh ha ha ha ha! ...... Did you say something, boy?
Zero: Guhwaaaaah!! Wh..... What!? I...... I....... Can't move...... Kugh.
Isoc: Zero..... I know you inside out.... Hmm. Since I found out you're alive, I can capture you at any time. But first I must bring High Max back.
Zero: Wa..... Wait! You're..... escaping? Da..... Darn. M..... My body.......
Isoc: Hmm. What can you do as you are now? I won't escape. I'll see you soon. I promise!
Signas: Are you all right? Zero! We'll send a rescue team immediately! High Max won't be a threat for a while. So you come back to the Hunter Base at once!
Alia: It's some kind of force field. It seems to take time to relese it. Can you move if it isn't released?
Zero: I hate to admit it, but I can't.......
Alia: Aw? The force field..... It seems to have a timing device. It might be released in due course. But it's strange.... Why did he try so hard to trap Zero? What was his intention?

3000 Nightmare Souls:
Alia: I found out what the Nightmare is..... The Nightmare us ab 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 anaysis is not yet complete.... But it is very similar to the Mavericks.
X: Yeah.... It's almost the same.
Zero: Right....
Alia: But I'll tell you the real threat of the Nightmare. The Nightmare Phenomona... An infected Reploid gets out of order... By inputting certain code, infact, you can manipulate the Reploid freely. The real purpose of 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....?
Zero: Who is pulling the strings.....
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 & Zero: .... Why is Gate doing this?
Alia: When he and I worked for the Reploids Research Team.....
Alia: 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 flater. 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's orders. But I participated....
X: Were they really dangerous?
Alia: No, not really.
Zero: It was inevitable...
Alia: We could have taken steps to adjust the program. 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.
Zero: They can't be analyzed.... Like us.
Alia: I hesitate to day 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. Mankinf, Reploid and the Earth are in danger.
Zero: The time for dreaming is over! We'll crush your ambition, Gate!
Alia: Yes. Stop Gate's plan at once. Gate must delete the Nightmare!
X & Zero: All right. Let's find Gate!

Gate: Well done, Maverick Hunter, X. You defeated my star creations....
X: Who are you?
Gate: I'm Gate. The new leader of Reploids. I aim for an ideal nation of Reploids only. I'm eliminating low Reploids for that. Hee hee hee.
X: You!! Do you realize what you're doing? The Earth can't be fixed without Reploids!
Gate: I know. So this is the perfect time! I can bring a new age just for Reploids. This is my dream. I've been waiting for this.... I won't ley anybody get in the way. X, I'll give you a special treat since you proved your worth and ability defeating my investigators. I'll invite you to me laboratory. Fu fu fu. No more hiding. I'm sure you'll come even if you know you'll die. I'm waiting for you at my laboratory. Fu fu fu. Bwah ha ha ha ha!

Gate: Splendid, Zero! You defeated my stars.....
Alia: Do you still hold grudges? Don't you realize what's going on? In the worst case seenario, you might die as well.
Gate: I know..... I think it's a golden opportunity! Thanks to the Space Colony Incident, a lot of low Reploids were lost. Now I can easily control the Reploids remaining..... It's the ideal time to build my world! I won't let anybody interfere. Finally I can realize my "dream"! I will build the strongest nation!
Zero: Your ridiculous obsession in a waste of our time. An ideal world made from a virus? It won't last with a corrupt foundation!
Gate: Even though you have Maverick Hunters and Reploids..... You still could not maintain peace, right? Don't accuse me when you use force too!
Alia: Stop querrelling! The Earth needs us now. Gate, I believe you should know better.
Gate: ...... I can't forget..... They murdered my works instead of appreciating them. They were such excellent Reploids.... Why? This Maverick Hunter can't be analyzed and may carry great risks...... But why won't you dispose of him? I'm looking forward to seeing.... The mysterious hero at my labaratory.....

Signas: Gate is behind everything!! Stop his evil!!
Alia: We've located his secret laboratory!! Let's stop the Nightmares now!!

Alia: The secret laboratory of Gate exists in a place like this? Let's movie in! Our radar condition seems to be very bad, and I can't get the clear vison. Can you find anything?
X: I found a hole.... It's like it's inviting us.... I assume once the laboratory is below this. I don't think I can communicate with you, once I enter it.....
Alia: Right.... We are having much noise within our transmission even now. Just be careful, X!
X: I have to stop Gate and his evil. It's dark, but I can see some light... Can you see anything, Alia...? Alia, Alia? I've already lost the transmission.... I have to go alone.

Zero: There's a big hole. This hole seems to be made for a big oaf to fit through.....
Alia: I assume the laboratory is below this. I think we'll lose transmission once you enter it.... Just be careful....
Zero: Don't worry. It's dark here, but I can vaguely see something. Can you identify anything Alia....? Alia, Alia? I've already lost the transmission.... Let's see what is here.

Gate: You made it.... You're superior, as always. You always were at the top, Alia.
Alia: No. Your talent was far beyond mine. I just diligently did as I was told. And you didn't. That was the only differance.
X: No matter how capable you are, the skill is nothing if not used properly. Alia understood that but you didn't.
Signas: First of all, a nation for only Reploids won't work. Both Reploids and humans are flawed. We can't survive withoput mutual aid. I believe you know the best.
Gate: Will humans rescue this damaged planet? No. They take refuge under the ground and are helpless. Only the Reploids can do the work... Fu. Did the Reploids cause this disater? They're the ones, are they, X? Ha ha ha.
Signas: Don't let him bit you, X.
X: I'm all right, Signas.
Gate: I'll admit taht Reploids are flawed and some Reploids become Maverick. That's why I wasn't properly evuluated. But..... I feel confident in my recenr creations. Oh... I'll tell you one little thing. I didn't get here on my ability alone.... Hmmm.... But I got something. A golden opportunity. Guess what I picked up? I thought it was just rubbish.... At first. It was a "Piece of Zero" I obtained Zero's DNA! I felt as if I stepped in the sanctuary. And the DNA was just fabulous. It was a piece of cake to create High Max and the Nightmare. I couldn't contain my excitement.... I could now create perfect and the strongest Reploids! But.... There's no limit to things.... Look at you.
X: Don't you know? Sure, Zero's DNA Data has great power... But it decreases if used the wrong way. Time to teach you a lesson, Gate! You used Zero to cause Reploids pain. All for your own ego!! I won't forgive you!!
Gate: Good! I've been waiting to destory you! Come on... X!

Gate: finally you made it. You are truly great, Zero.
Zero: It's simple. Evil must be defeated.
Gate: I wanted to keep silence on this. But I will reveal the secret to you. To be honest, I didn't get here on my ablilty alone.... I got something. It was a blessing. Guess what I got? I thought it was junk at first.... It was a piece of your body. Zero, I obtained your DNA Data! It couldn't be analyzed! I tried using the lastest technology.
Zero: What!? You used my DNA?
Gate: Your DNA was just fabulous. It made High Max and the virus easy. I couldn;t contain my excitement.... I could now create perfect and the strongest Reploids.... But... It couldn't match the original after all. I couldn't analyze it competely.
Zero: How dare you! Delete the Nightmare Virus now! It's too dangerous! It will be your undoing!
Gate: Ha ha ha. How strange.... You're usually so calm... Don't worry. I had enough experiments using low Reploids. And that yielded a virus from your DNA. What I should do now is.... To destory the disgusting original body!
Zero: I'll destory your evil ambition!!

High Max: Data-wise, I've surpassed you..... There's no chance for me to lose!
X: Are you still babbling things like that? I just have to win!

High Max: Just die! Die, original one!
Zero: What is he saying? Anyway, it's time to fight!

Gate: Most impressive. All of my Reploids have already been destoryed. I confess that I have nothing to use...
X: Gate! Surrender! Or.....
Gate: Not now. I have one more experiment I'd like to perform.
X: Stop! You are making a big mistake, but you know that, don't you?
Gate: Who cares. I've always wanted to analyze you. Come on, X!

Gate: So impressive. All of my Reploids have already been destoryed. I confess that I have nothing to use... I couldn't analyze you enough.... Or should I say it was impossible to analyze you completely....
Zero: It is too dangerous to put my DNA to use! You must have been aware of that. Delete all the remaining program you have!
Gate: Not yet. Give me one more chance to fight you! I've never thought I'd be able to fight the original one... This is a long-awaited opportunity! Fight me, Zero.
Zero: It is useless to fight you anymore! Just give up and surrender.
Gate: I won't. I am so close.... Prepare yourself, Zero!

Gate: Kugh. I lost even though I used Zero's DNA.... No... Ugh.... I should've.... Analyzed it more.... Wa.... Was there a... Fault in the program...? But.... Ugh.... This is not the end. I don't.... Ack... Give up so easily... I prepared for this just in case. Ha ha. I really....... Don't want to use this... I might be destoryed as well, but.... I brought back the evil... Si... Sigma....
Sigma: Oh, please. I did not die. Nor did I need your help! Now get lost!
Gate: GhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAA!!
Sigma: HA! N.... Now it's... Just y... You, ha ha! I'm waiting for you! Y... You're finished!
Zero: I knew you would return. So, we meet again. Time to end this!
X: Drat! He's back! But he hasn't been restored perfectly. I've got to go now!

Alia: .... X... Can you hear me? I found out.... That's Isoc's body. It just broke down. Is he dead? ...... This is similar to the Erasure Incident....
X: There's no reaction.... What is this? ..... No. I have to go! I must get Sigma!

??: G.... Go, Zero! You're the srongest robot!
Zero: Um? ..... Did someone call me?
Alia: Zero, what is it?
Zero: Nothing. I'll go after Sigma!

X: You don't seem to complete, Sigma!
Sigma: Cough.... X....? Get lost!
X: I'll completely delete you!
Sigma: Slience.... I'll destory you.... Even with this half-completed body!
X: Get ready to be deleted, Sigma!

Zero: Sigma.
Sigma: Cough.... Is it... X...? Or Zero? Who cares?! Just leave!
Zero: No. Now you are mine!
Sigma: Silence.... Such a pitiful Reploid.... I'll still be able to destory you....
Zero: I'll put you out of your misery!

X: Could I defeat him? I don't think so....
Sigma: Bha ha ha ha! Not yet! THE BADDLE HAZ JUSD BEGUNN! DIE! XXX! JUSDIE, X!
X: What is he talking about..... Though he is not fully conscious, he still remembers revenge.... I'll put you out of your misery, Sigma! Just rest in piece!

Zero: Where are you? Show your face now!
Sigma: Bha ha ha! KID! I'LLSHOWYOUWHATATERRORISALLABOUT! DIE! ZERO! JUSTDIE! ZELLLLLLO!
Zero: His mind is gone. I won't allow you to rise again. This is the last act Sigma!

Sigma: Gwaaaaaaaa! Ghaaaaaaa! It's useless! IT IS USELESS! You know it is, X! You can't defeat me so easily.... You know you can't, X...... *
X: I have to work for the reconstruction of the world.... I have no time to waste on you.... If you show up, I'll defeat you.
Sigma: Bha ha ha ha ha! Don't forget you said that. That gives me the motivation to come back again someday! I will! I..... Will...... WOOOOAAAAAAA!

*Zero: Shut up. Just die.
Sigma: Bha ha ha ha ha! I'll come back to fight you again!

X: Alia, I'm not sure he will recover....
Alia: X.... Why did you bring Gate?
X: He was you coilegue, right? It is an old story, though. Furthermore I don't want to lose anymore Reploids.
Alia: I see.... Gate mey not recover but.... I believe he can sense your feelings. I'd like to say thank you for Gate, X.
Zero: X, you've become stronger. Now you'll be find on your own.
Alia: By the way, X, you dreamt about Zero, didn't you? Was that from the Nightmare?
X: I don't know. But I believe Zero is inside.... Sigma won't beat us Maverick Hunters! So then, he is alive!
Alia: X..... Well... That's right.
Zero: HA! Right. I won't get beaten by Sigma. The peace will last for a while. There's something I should do now.... X, I'll leave the hunting to you for the time being, I'll return when I can. Until then, X.
X: Zero?!
Alia: Eh? I... I felt it too.... I felt Zero there.
X: I felt Zero calling me... I've searched but recieved no sign....
Alia: No, there's no sign. Are you all right? You'd better rest.
X: Thanks, but I'm fine. Besides... Now Sigma is back, we must be on guard. All right. time to restore the Earth!
Alia: Let's build a real Uropia.... Together.....

Zero: It's over.
X: Yeah.
Zero: X..... What will you do with Gate? He's damaged beyond repair.
X: I know. But he was Alia's colleague.... I could not leave him. I know what it is to lose a fellow......
Zero: ...... I'm sorry for that. Oh, here they come.
Alia: Are you two okay? Oh....! Is it Gate?
Zero: X brought him back. It's his mercy.
Douglas: This is awful! Whoa. What should we do?
X: It's up to Alia. Did I do too much?
Alia: No. Thank you, X. I'll do my best.
Signas: Our mission is not yet complete. We must rebuild the Earth together!
Douglas: I'll fix anything! Now I can show my mechanic skills!
Alia: I'll try to develop a program resistant to corruption and all viruses..... Gate and I both longed for this.
X: Let's join forces and go forward!
Zero: Yes! Our journey has just begun!
Signas: We'll work to build a real Utopia! It is the world where the humans race and Reploids coexist.

Mystery Scientist: ...... I see. It'll take a while to get rid of this. Even with the latest technology, it's hard to succeed... I'm not really sure if I can fix this completely...
Zero: Don't worry. I must do it before it's too late.
Mystery Scientist: But you haven't had any problems yet.... You'll be fine as you are, won't you? It's none of my business, but what will we do in a crisis without you?
Zero: Ha. I'm sorry, but don't worry.... There's a superior Maverick Hunter. But I'm scared that I may become a disturbing presence.
Mystery Scientist: .... I agree. You look ready.
Zero: Yeah... So, when will I wake up?
Mystery Scientist: If there is no problem... It will be around August 15th, 102 years from now.
Zero: ...... Right. Here's to a successful sleep.
Mystery Scientist: I'll do my best. Have a good sleep....
