An Eternity of Pain

Chapter 2
on one of his many archeological digs, a scientist by the name of cain discovered a large steel machine deep into the ground. upon future examinations, it seemed intact. the other two were destroyed. he opened it, and after a lot of white noise emerged a large blue machine. it looked around, then at cain and asked, "where am i?". This fascinated cain... a thinking machine! it's memory had sustained a shock, so it had no recollection of anything before emerging from the capsule. it also had no name--cain named him 'x'. wanting to match the technology, cain created his own reploid... completely out of machine, and named it 'zero', based on it's production number. it was far from perfect, but soon the technical bugs were worked out. it wasn't long before he was having arguments with zero's smartass personality. cain was suddenly rich, his reploids taking on dangerous jobs and policing the streets 24-7. everything seemed fine. the people had entirely forgotten about reploids, and the sigma 206 virus. it wasn't long before the virus returned, however. the people could not understand why only some robots went haywire and the other's didn't. the dangerous robots were only the new models, and only a fraction of them went 'maverick'. a team of maverick hunters was born, to end the threat. it was headed by three reploids: x, zero, and their friend mac. the hunters kept the mavericks under control, unawares that they were starting an army of their own. the first war broke out no later then four years after x's discovery. the largest military machine prototype, code named coincidentally sigma, was the perfect main host for the virus. the hunters still did not know that it was a virus behind it all. this war culminated when zero nearly killed himself trying to save x. x immediately got revenge, by killing a clone of the sigma machine that he thought was the original. once again, rock and wily were fighting. their second war was their most destructive yet. x and a band of hunters were frantically searching for zero's parts, before sigma could take them and corrupt them. a maverick zero would be almost impossible to stop. x again won, and destroyed another clone of sigma. their third war was in though to finally be their last. x and zero were fighting together, even though mac had to be destroyed. along the way, zero's power generator took a severe hit, and he was down. x took on sigma in his new Kaiser suit, and once again won. this was the end of the war... the virus now left the body and came after x. after a long chase through the burning base, x was corered. As the virus approached, zero crashed through the ceiling and destroyed it with cain's new antivirus. it proved quite effective... that clone of the virus was killed, why not the rest? that was the plan... but their fourth war was the end of times as we now know them.
