MMX Fan fiction. Beta Copy. 5.18.08. Ch. 4 Part 1
ImpatientSnake: Holy fan service Batman! That was the pre-emptive title for chapter 4. ^_^ Not much else I can say here so just sit back and enjoy the ride (Hint hint, nudge nudge)!
Sorry it’s so late… I’m not feeling well so it’s taking longer to write than usual… T_T
PS: Ever wonder why chapters two and three are both written in “parts”? Well… besides my scatterbrained-ness acting up I’m writing the story in this fashion so that it can eventually be made into a graphic novel of sorts--kinda like a written storyboard. I’ve always wanted to do one and with any luck I’ll have accomplished turning my fan fiction into graphic novel form by the end of this summer. Let’s hope that my manga skills keep steadily increasing! :D
Chapter Rating: PG-13+. For swearing, “ideologically sensitive” situations, shounen-ai/soft core, and crude humor.

************************************************************************
X scratched his head nervously as he tried to think of something to break the awkward silence of the room while his partner‘s eyes were still uncomfortably fixed upon him.
(Think of something X! You’re the one responsible for helping him right now…)
As the brunette looked over towards Zero, he noticed the odd expression on the blonde’s face as he held part of the burgundy fabric of the hospital gown to his nose.
“Uh… what’s wrong Z?” X asked with a slightly bewildered look on his still red face.
Looking up at his inquisitive counterpart, the S class commander’s eyes showed a mix of discomfort and confusion.
“Do…do I smell… weird…?”
Practically falling out of his seat in surprise, X looked over towards his confounded friend as he tried to suppress a laugh.
“H-HEY! That’s not funny! I’m being serious! Why does my shirt smell this way?!”
Putting his free hand towards his mouth; the brown haired youth’s eyes closed tightly as he leaned forward in his chair slightly, muffling uncontrollable giggles. X tried to regain his composer as the blonde haired youth’s elbow hit him in the shoulder, almost knocking his partner from his seat.
“Ow! What did you do THAT for?!” The other said with “innocent” eyes as he looked up at a thoroughly embarrassed Zero.
“…”
The S class commander gave no response as the stared at the other youth with stern eyes set upon a deeply red face.
“Heh… I guess I deserved that one…” X admitted with a large smile denoting his cheerful mood.
((Ugh… I’m not used to dealing with… this… Why didn’t I read the whole textbook?)) Zero sighed slightly as he mentally kicked himself.
(…How am I going to explain this?)
“…Z… do you remember how we’d come back from each mission and wash our armor, weapons, and other items that got dirty?”
“Yeah… but I don’t see how tha--” his blue eyes closed as the uneasy hunter’s head hung lower as his face grew a deep crimson.
“O…”
X smiled as he reluctantly let go of his friend’s scarred hand and placed it on his back reassuringly.
“It’s okay Z, there’s a community shower down the hall you can use before we leav--”
The frustrated hunter began to massage the corners of his eyes, trying to lessen the awkwardness of the situation.
“X… I think I’d rather use the facilities back at our room…”
Recalling Zero’s usually private personality and the fact that his best friend wasn’t used to his new body, the brown haired hunter began to regret his lack of foresight.
(Why am I so distracted today?)
“Sorry about that… I’ve got my ride chaser outside, we can go home anytime you’d like--”
The door to the unit slid open as the reploid nurse who had visited them before returned, wheeling in a large box and a small package.
“These items just arrived from you Mr. Zero, they’re from a Mr. Douglas.”
Zero looked over his shoulder as he was handed a delivery sheet to sign.
“That’s odd… was the rest of HQ even informed that we’d be here? I thought it was still classified.” X said to himself as he walked over to the items and took the brown paper package into his hands.
After having the necessary paperwork signed, the nurse politely left the unit.
“What do you think it is X?”
“Beats me. Why don’t you just open it?” He said as the handed the small package to Zero, looking on from behind him as he leaning his chin on the seated hunter’s head. Slightly unnerved by X’s unconscious advances, the blonde hunter began to untie the twine knot that held the items together.
Zero pushed the coarse paper aside revealing two new ID cards, a hand written note, and some articles of new clothing. Unfolding the note, the two hunters began to read the small ink lettering:
Zero,
We’re all so relieved to know that you’ve made a full recovery! Alia, Dr. Cain, and I have been worried about you. Signas has restricted the details of both your and X’s condition as a safety measure to ensure that the transition to your human forms goes smoothly--and as a preventative measure to stifle any assassination attempts. We can take care of things at the Base so try to take it easy for a few days. You and X both could use a vacation about now.
I’ve sent you some new ID’s--be sure to give X his! Your old ones will remain here at the Hunter Base until we can sort out the situation. You’ll also find the modified leg attachments for your armor in the crate. After Signas warned me that you had been bed-ridden for a few days I took the initiative to place some leg support features into your armor; hopefully you won’t be stumbling around too much.
((Very funny Douglas…))
While the dash and jumping features have been switched off for more practical purposes you’ll seamlessly integrate with them just like you did in your reploid form.
Alia and Dr. Cain included some new clothes for you; none of us knew what you liked so we decided to make things simple.
We hope to see both of you soon!
Douglas, Alia, and Dr. Cain
PS Try not to pull any pranks on X, he’s run himself ragged looking after you.
Zero handed X the letter and their ID cards as sifted through the neatly folded items. He found fitted, long sleeved, crimson shirt; a simple pair of white socks; a pair of black jeans; and blue boxers. He began to blush as he can to the last item.
“What? Are you a briefs fan?”
Startled by the comment, he turned towards X who was watching his varied expressions as he looked over the items.
“I don’t know… I was just getting to that chapter in the book.” The blue eyed hunter teased as he deviously smiled and threw the article of clothing into his friend’s face.
X pulled the underwear off of him and handed them back to the playful youth, as he smiled back and leaned over Zero’s seated form, staring into his clear eyes.
“So it’s commando then?”
The blonde shrank back into his seat as the green eyed youth’s comment flustered him further.
“D-Do you think you could bring the crate over here for me?” He stammered; trying to look as nonchalant as possible.
Pouting slightly, X walked over towards the heavy crate and picked up the heavy item with ease. Setting it down at his friend’s feet he settled back into his chair and began to look over his new ID and the letter as Zero pulled the top off with little effort.
“Hmm… I says on the ID’s that we’ll have to have our photos taken tomorrow before they’re fully valid.”
“Where exactly do we need to go to have that done?” Zero asked as he pulled his leg armor out from the sea of white packaging peanuts that spilled out of the wooden box.
Flipping the metallic card over, X scrolled down on the mini browser that was embedded into it’s back.
“Looks like we can have it done at the public affairs building that’s by the mall in Giga city. That’ll give us a good opportunity to get some things that we’re going to need for the apartment.” The brunette thought out loud as he turned towards his counterpart, who had finished putting on his new “boots” and started to steady himself in an attempt to get out of the chair.
“Wait a sec--”
The green eyed hunter flinched as his friend fell forward, catching himself with his outstretched hands as the wheel chair flew backwards toward the hospital unit wall.
“What the hell happened?!” Zero retorted in frustration as his temper was getting the better of him.
Coming over to help him up, X held back a smile as he tried to avoid annoying his partner any further.
“You… uh… forgot to put the brake on the chair Zero…”
Zero’s face reddened as he accept X’s gesture and stood on his own.
X smiled softly as he picked up the pile of Zero’s clothes and handed them to the prone youth.
“I’ll pack things up here while you get changed;” the happy brunette chimed as he began to pick up bits of white packaging peanuts. “after all you still need to take a good shower!”
Smiling to disguise his embarrassment, the S Class hunter placed the blue boxers on X’s head as he walked off towards the restroom in the unit.
(Heh, so I guess it’s commando then.)
X humored himself as he gathered the styrofoam pieces and placed them back into the crate.
*********************************************************** *************
ImpatientSnake: Who would’ve thought that Zero likes to go commando? I kept asking myself what his preferred style of underwear would be--thanks to the influence of Y! Gallery. This was just a cute chapter to show just how challenging the transition from reploid to human would be--I’m sure this is made even harder for Zero because he is such a private and introverted person. Expect more hilarity in the next installment!
Again sorry for the late update… I’m currently on sinus medication and it’s EXTREMELY hard to focus on anything--I had to go back and read each sentence I typed at least twice to get a good flow in the story.
Updates: Expect the next update within 3 to 4 days!
