Mega Man X4 Script (X's story)

Script from the game Mega Man X4, X's storyline only.

Scene 1: A Dark Proposition
(The leader of Repliforce, General, meets with a cloaked Reploid on a stormy night.)

???: It's about the Maverick Hunters, General. They are far too eager to please the humans, and continue to hunt down the Reploids. Do you believe they pose a significant threat?

General: Perhaps.

???: You already know the truth, General. Their sole mission has been to destroy any Reploids who fail to do as the humans order!

General: Hmm...

???: It's in your best interest to stop them now, before they turn on you! You possess enough power to destroy them!

General: ... You are dismissed.

???: What?!

General: I will not betray the humans. Remove yourself from my sight. My business with you has concluded...

???: Heh heh heh... very well. But you will change your mind soon, I assure you! Ha ha ha ha... Ha ha ha ha!

Scene 2: The First Mission
(X stands in the Command Room of the Maverick Hunter Headquarters, receiving a briefing of his next mission.)

Hunter H.Q.: Mavericks have been found at location 5567! The Mavericks occupied the Sky Lagoon using the most advanced weapons available! The army appears to be the Repliforce!

X: Roger that! I'm on my way!

(X teleports out to the Sky Lagoon.)

Scene 3: A Fiery Grave
(X fights his way through the Sky Lagoon and fights Eregion, a large dragon-like Mechaniloid. He enters a boss gate and comes across Magma Dragoon, another Maverick Hunter.)

X: You're Dragoon from the 14th Unit!

Dragoon: This isn't good, X! That Maverick just destroyed the power reactor!

X: What?! Then the Sky Lagoon will... come crashing to the ground!

Dragoon: It's too late, X! It's time I made my escape! I'd suggest you do the same... Don't do anything reckless on the way out, okay?

(Dragoon teleports away.)

X: The city below will soon become a sea of flames. Many people will perish... I have no choice but to escape from here and head to the city below!

(X teleports out to the city, finding it utterly decimated and burning.)

X: ... Wha-?! The city has been completely destroyed! They were innocent people... I won't forget this!

Scene 4: Enter Colonel
(As X stands looking at the burning remains, a uniformed Reploid teleports in.)

X: Who are you?

Colonel: I'm the Colonel of the Repliforce.

X: Has the Repliforce been occupying this area?

Colonel: What are you talking about?! I only came to save my sister. The army responsible for all the violence in this region is not the Repliforce!

X: Nevertheless, I want you to disarm and follow me back to the H.Q.

Colonel: Never! You're asking my soldiers to drop their weapons? The only time we drop our weapons is when we aren't able to fight any longer!

X: You will be regarded a Maverick and treated as such!

Colonel: Do as you will! The Repliforce would sooner fight and die than discard our pride. Consider us Mavericks if this is what you wish!

X: Wait! Calm down, Colonel!

(Colonel teleports out.)

X: What the ...! Something's got to give. Otherwise the entire Repliforce will be considered to be Mavericks!
