Three week later, a mysterious scientist knowns as Gate investigates the crash site and discovered a piece of Zero. While trying to analyse it, he become Maverick himself, wishing to build a utopia for Reploids by beginning to creating a new type of virus to implode the event to fear among both human and reploid, the Nightmare.
