The Unlimited Part 1:
The Perfect Crime
Downtown Mechanopolis...
Gemini: Where the hell are
they?
Needlegal: It's odd the
streets are empty and there's no sign of the X-Force. Did they learn of
new weapon?
Gauntlet: Impossible! I
kept that under...
(Something hits him)
Top: What the...
Rob: What you don't remember
me?
Magnet: Lynx?
Rob: I'm Rob you simpleton!
(A beam of blue energy fires at Rob)
Rob: DOUBLE SLASHER!
(Nothing happens)
Rob: ?!?
Gauntlet: That's our power

(Rob slashes Gauntlet in the chest)
Rob: But I'm not defenseless

a barrages of Magnet Missiles and faints from the shock)

(Alon smashes through one building and KO's Hard Man)
(Gary comes with various clones to even up the score)
(Gauntlet hits them all with the Power Nullifer)
Gauntlet: Ha, my brains
beat your raw power... How do you like them apples?
Gary: Don't count on that...
we are only four members that other four are where you can't see them what?
(Up in a cloud bank Ben [in his Blaze Heatnix form] and the other flyers watch from above)
Ben: Now Andrew!
Andrew: Roger...

Top: (Dizzy) Whoa! I don't
feel so... (Starts spinning right into Gauntlet)
Gauntlet: (Dodges) Nightmare!
What do you think you're doing?!?
Top: I can't control myself...
Gauntlet: Huh?
Andrew: [What Gauntlet you
don't believe him?]
Gauntlet: Andrew?!? Where
are you?
Andrew: [Oh I'm in a cloud
bank where you can't see me and I'm using a new technology we found in
another univers called Radio-Telepathy so I can go into your robotic brain
and shut you all down.]
(The Mecha Maniacs all start to hemorage)
Rob: [Ben! this wasn't supposed
to happen!]
Ben: [Yeah, Computer end exercise]
Computer: Exercise 2099 ending...
(The holograms disappear)
Alon: (Dusts himself) Ah,
why did you have to ruin the fun Rob?
Rob: This exercise was meant
to immobilize the Mecha Maniacs should they want their revenge for their
defeat when we last battled them.
Tobias: (Lands) Still Tobias
doesn't know why we can't kill them.
Rob: Because they are our
allies dipshit!
(The other flyers land)
(Ben transforms back to Magma Dragoon and eyes Andrew)
Ben: (Jumps on Andrew) RARGH!
YOU IDIOT! (Starts pummeling Andrew with his fists) You stupid... (Slam!)...
little (SLAM!)...
(Andrew cowers as Ben is snagged by Classi's web and pacified)
Classi: Ben hun! Calm down,
it was an accident... it happens. Besides Chibi is at the door...
(Ben looks and sees him)
Chibi: Hey I want to do that
too... (Lunges at Andrew who cowers)
(Classi snags Chibi in mid-air and pulls him back)
Classi: No Chibi-hun, Your coming
with me...
Ben: (Breaks Classi's Lightning
Web) ...
(Ben looks at Andrew)
Ben: Sorry, I lost control
of my temper...
Andrew: Need spores... (Grabs
Gary) must have...
Gary: Hey! Leggo you psycho!
(Ben grabs Gary)
Ben: I think we have a rendez-vous
in 20XX that we have to make... right Gary?
Gary: Right... (Whispers) Thanks
for saving me from him...
Ben: You're welcome...
(Ben and Gary leave)
X-Force: ...
Trevor: What should we do
now?
Tobias: Well why don't we...
Classi: Look after Chibister?
Chibi: HEY! No fair Aunt Classi...
Rob: Why should we take
care of the little runt he's Ben's problem!
Classi: ROB! This kid was dropped
on our doorstep and like it or not it's our responsibility to be his family.
(The rest of the X-Force sigh)
Alon: I guess your right

Trevor: She has a way of making
you feel guilty...
Tobias: Well it worked...
(The XF leave for the Recreation Room in X-Force HQ)

Gauntlet: Thanks...
Ben: No problem, I'd like
to see that asshole suffer but I have business to attend to...
(Gauntlet disappears)
(Ben and Gary walk out onto the street)
Gary: Who's "he"?
Ben: That's not important...
Hey do you feel that?
Gary: Maybe your battery needs
recharging...
(Ben pulls out Stun Gun)
Gary: Uh oh...
ZAP!
Gary: Ye-OW! (coughs out smoke)
Ben: It's a Circuit Stone...
Gary: So it's one from 20XX
big deal...
Ben: No I feel nine... eight
where they should be and one is (points to a complex) there!
Gary: How did you...
Ben: It's an ability I still
have since I sacrificed my ability to Chaos Control* I can sense where
the Circuit Stones are... call it a sixth sense.
(*The Tanakas Strike Back: Part 2)
Gary: Yeah I have that too...
(mimics Haley Joel Osment) I see dead people... all the time...
(Ben holds out Stun Gun)
Gary: Okay, Okay... I'm done
with the jokes...
X-Force HQ, Recreation Room...
(The X-Force and Chibi MD are watching some show where Barney is being dismembered)
Rob: It's amazing how standards
have fallen so low since the 1960's.
Alon: Yeah and that's 200
years ago...
Chibi: YEAH! Rip his arm off!
Classi: For shame how these
producers get away with this...
Chibi: THE HEAD! GO FOR THE
HEAD!
Classi: Really guys we need
to be better role models. We kill and maim on a daily basis, would you
want Chibi to maim his kindergarten class?
Rob: Aren't all of us exceptional
role models?
(Alon farts)
(The male members of the X-Force laugh like maniacs)
Classi: I rest my case...
(Roof begins to rattle)
Tobias: What the heck?
(The roof is blasted apart and the XF takes cover, as the dust settles 30 reploids land in the ruins of the Rec Room)
Luxione: X-Force!
We have an ultimatum for you...
Rob: Yeah? And that is?
Return X: (Hovers
down) Give us Chibi MD and we swear we won't rip off your heads and spit
down your wind pipe...
Classi: Never you big bullies...
Tobias: Yeah! YOU'LL HAVE TO
KILL US FIRST!
X-Force: Tobias!
Rob: Well we aren't going
to let him go without a fight so I hope you all paid your insurence premiums...

Chibi: (Backs away) No!
Gravity Beetle
L: That wasn't a request... (Levitates himself and Chibi towards a time-shuttle
on standby)
Chibi: Aunt Classi!
Classi: Chibi!
(The other members look and find Chibi being taken away)
Rob: We have to save him!
(Jumps towards Chibi)
Classi: Chibi! (Tries to snag
Gravity Beetle with her Lightning Web)
Gravity Beetle

floor) We are all at Perfect level and your only Perfect is in 20XX on
business. Get them!

we have here...
(Gary heads towards a crate and rips it open with his reploid strength)
Gary: ...it's only robotic
parts big whoop...
Ben: (Rips open another
crate and pulls out a component) hmmm... There's something about this component...
Gary: (Feels the temperature
rise) Uh Ben? Do you feel that?
Ben: More dead people? Get
serious Gary. This component wasn't even invented until 2132... (Feels
the temperature drop) Hoyl hannah, isn't it April?
(One walls starts to glow and melts, the opposite wall starts to frost and both explode hurl Ben and Gary into each other's backs)
Flame Stag L: Ben,
It's been too long...
Freezeman: I don't know
who you are but I'm the coolest guys in the world!
Flame Stag L: Will
you shut up with that... (Ben with lightning-fast reflexes slams Flame
Stag L into a bunch of crates while Gary fires eye beams the knock Freezeman
into the next warehouse.)
Ben: Either we missed an
X-Hunters/Lethal Eight crossover...
Gary: Or someone wants to replace
us as the Fiery Maverick/Icey Robot Master duo...
Ben: You take on Brain-Freeze
while I go deer hunting...
(Gary runs off to fight Freezeman)
Ben: Yeah, I remember you
Staggie... your lame offer for a partnership during the Counter Hunter's
rebellion*.
(*Mega Man X2)
Flame Stag L: (Hurls
a fireball, which throws Ben through the walls) I remember back in my Maverick
Hunting days we were once members of the 14th Unit and I offered you chance
to participate in my volcano offensive which would've destroyed Megaopolis!
Ben: (Gets up) Yeah then
X came and destroyed you before your plan could be executed, too bad you
weren't there went I let the Sky Lagoon fall. I did more damage that you
ever could imagine...
Flame Stag
L: (Blasts Ben with the River of Fire attack) LIAR! (Grabs Ben by the collar)
YOU COULDN'T HAVE I WAS ALWAYS BETTER I OFFERED YOU A...
Ben: (Coughs) Sorry Staggie,
hanging out with you cramped my style...
Flame Stag L: (Throws
Ben into another warehouse) Luckily for me, Dr. Wily was warped to 21XX
to that Sky Lagoon Museum you erected where he stole my designs and some
of your Quantum technology to rebuild me in this wonderful new "Limited"
form... now all he needs is your son...
Ben: (Groans) Chibi...
Flame Stag L: Change
is good isn't it? Good bye Benjamin... (Raises foot over Ben's head)
Ben: Oh you haven't seen
me for over five years, you haven't seen how much I changed... (Glows red)
Flame Stag L: Huh?
(Ben warps to his Magma Dragoon Perfect form)
Ben: Nice you met you
again Stag... I'm hungry for some venison...
Meanwhile the two ice demons duke it out...
Freezeman: (Freezes Gary's
clones) Why don't you fight me man-to-fungus you little wimp?
Gary: What? (Jumps from one
wall to another Warehouse roof) And spoil you poor sweet baby? You have
to catch me... (Jumps as Freezeman launches a Freeze Cracker) YEOW! (Falls
to the grounds)
Freezeman: Prepare to meet
your...
(Gary does a backflip and kicks Freezeman straight in the jaw)
Freezeman: RARGH! This is
not possible Dr. Wily he gave me Reploid Technology so I could... (A slab
of ice hits Freezeman from behind)
Gary: ?!?

Gary: Uh... guys...?
Tech Tyrants: ?!?
Freezeman: You sub-reploid
weaklings... ICE STORM!

(Gary blasts himself out with his eye-beams)
Gary: Don't tell me you slice,
dice and make fries too...
Freezeman: Welp! (Luanches
another Freeze Crackers which Gary dodges) YOU WILL BOW TO ME!
Gary: Sorry... I don't worship
overgrown toasters. You're nothing but a toaster tart dispenser to me...

Brad: What?!? No way!
Odin: How could he be that

Freezeman: Man, when Wily
sent me here to rid his depot of two intruders, I never expected you you
wusses to appear!
Naop: Wusses! Why we should...
(Freezeman prepares his final attack, when Flame Stag L comes crashing through one warehouse and the two are slammed to the other side of the complex)
(Ben flies over top)
Gary: Good! Follow him!
Naop: Do as the fungus
says!
(Gary and Tech Tyrants follow Ben to find him surrounded)
Flame Stag L: (Grunts)
Damn you're stronger than I first thought... too bad me and my pal Frost...
Freezeman: That's Freeze
Man you idiot...
Flame Stag L: Well
Ben it will come to... (Ben throttles Flame Stag L)
Ben: You talk too much!
NOW DIE!

closer...

Brad: WAVE BURNER!
Naop: COPY VISION!
(Freezeman screams in pain)
Magnus: (Fires a Remote
Mine into the near-deactiavted Freezeman) Fire in the hole!
(Freezeman blows up)
(Meanwhile the two fire demons struggle in an utter dedlock)
Flame Stag L: Because...
(Grunt) you had a makeover... doesn't mean you a beat me... (Holds Ben's
hands and keeps them away from his chest)
Ben: If you haven't
learned by now, I'm just full of suprises... HYPER MAGMA BLADE!

(Transforms back to regular MD)
Naop: Ben did you forget?
We live here now! (Transforms into Naop)
Ben: Naop? Hey! It's been
a long time you're hanging out in 20XX now?
Pharaoh: Naop you know
this guy?
Jered: Everyone in 21XX
knows he's the leader of the X-Force!
Naop: What brings you to this
part of the timeline?
Ben: I was just dropping
off something for Gauntlet, until we came across this compound which contains
reploid technology smuggled in from 21XX... (Drops to his knees and opens
up Flame Stag L's head)
Brad: So Anton? Does he
still use the Stun Gun...
Gary: !!! I'm Gary damn it!
Brad: Wha?
Gary: I replaced Anton after
he was killed*
(*Double Doom)
Pharaoh: You are in the
X-Force now?
Gary: Call it a hobby...
Ben: There... (holds up
Flame Stag L's memory chip) Come on Gary, let's get this to the X-Force
pronto...
(Teleporter Door opens)
Gary: Well see ya' ladies.
Ben: And do us a favor and
destroy this compound... before Wily can sell this to the other villains...
Naop: Can do...
Ben: (Turns Back) Oh and
I forgot! (Punches Brad)
Brad: (!) What you do
that for?!?
Ben: If you attack Forte-Chan
again*. I'll rip you limb from limb.

deserve it...
