"Y-yes, sir..." Being reminded that he was incompetent just made X feel worse. He shouldn't have bothered trying to become a Hunter.

"Follow me." Zero ordered before walking to the floor where most of the offices were. Doing a quick check revealed that they were all in use. He heaved a sigh. If these were all in use then all the others were as well. "Looks like I'll be making you an office." He muttered somewhat to himself before walking to the elevator and going to the floor that his office was on.

X followed the hunter in silence, hands clasped behind his back.

A quick glance around the floor gave Zero an idea of which rooms were in use and which ones weren't. However he paused when he noticed the door open on one of the rooms that was assigned to someone. Apparently they had quit. "Lucky for me, we do have a spare office." He said before going over to it. It was still fully furnished. "This will be your office. You'll more than likely be tasked with doing paperwork most of the time." He stated turning back to face X again.

"Huh?" X had zoned out slightly while he walked, and was caught slightly off-guard when he spoke. "O-oh...thank you, sir," he stammered slightly, not quite sure why he was saying thank you in the first place.

"... No problem." Zero had given a slight pause, but turned his attention back to the office before going inside. He used the computer that was inside to register the room to X. "You can set up a passcode lock on this office if you'd like." He commented remembering that these were some of the more 'fancier' offices.

X didn't bother putting a lock on his office, Why should he? The only times he would leave the room would be to report to his superiors or to go to the recharge center, it seemed. He examined the office; it was still pristine.

"I'll have to teach you how to properly fill out paperwork, or at least make sure you know how to. But I'll have to do that a little later." Zero stated before going back over to the door. "Oh, have they given you a communicator yet?" He asked pausing to look back at X.

Zero rubbed his face with one of his hands. "Of course not." He looked annoyed. "I'll be right back so don't go anywhere." He said sounding like an order before he walked off.

"Y-yes sir!" stammered X with a salute. When Zero walked off, the blue Reploid took a moment to organize the desk a little.

Zero came back a few moments later with a part in his hand. He took note of X organizing even though there wasn't much to organize in the first place. At least this newbie wasn't a slob. "Do you know how to install this yourself?" He asked holding out the part in question. It was a communicator that was installed into their helmets. That way it wouldn't fall out or anything like that.

X looked up from the desk and took note of the device in Zero's hand. He took it, after a moment of hesitation, and examined it closer before fitting it to his right ear port. It clicked into place, and what looked like a frequency list popped up in his field of view. "I think it worked," he reported.

"The only channel you need to worry about is channel seven. That's the main communications channel." Zero explained. If it had worked then X would know exactly what he was talking about. "All other channels are for specialized use. If you need to get in contact with me, then click to channel zero." The blond stated simply. "If you need to talk to the navigators, then use channel one. Hopefully they won't be chatting." The red reploid said with a sigh. "Any other channels that pop up ignore. You'd know if you needed to get on it. Any questions?" He gazed at X hoping that the blue reploid understood everything he'd said.

"Well at least you aren't incompetent." Zero commented before leaving to grab some of his paperwork and bring it back. He'd been dealing with rookies and Vile for so long he'd forgotten how to properly interact with others. "Now then, you need to learn how to fill out paperwork." He said before putting two stacks on X's desk. "Let me know when you finish." He left seconds later. One stack was paperwork that was already filled out and the other was ones that needed to be filled out, but were similar to the completed ones.

X sat at the desk and plucked a pen from the drawer, then got to work filling out the paperwork. He used the completed ones as basic examples, studying them carefully and locking their format into his memory banks. He finished the work about an hour later, taking a bit of time to double-check the work. He contacted Zero via his communicator. "Finished, sir," he reported.

Something could be heard breaking in the background from Zero's end. "Really? I'll be up shortly." He sounded rather surprised. "Get out of here before I shove this-!" The communicator cut out mid sentence, which was probably a good thing.

((I'm guessing shoving something up another Hunter's ass?))

X blinked in confusion when his communicator cut to static and shut off the channel. That sounded odd.

Zero came back up to X's office within a few minutes and took the paperwork. He managed to look at every single paper within fifteen minutes. "I suppose it would've been perfect if I had given you the tally sheet." He stated before pulling out one of the papers from the middle and glancing over it again. The only thing missing was the number of reploids, humans, and mechaniloids that were injured or worse during the attack.

X mentally facepalmed, realizing he must have forgotten something. Or did Zero forget something? Ah well. It was one of the two.

"Ah...the last few years of helping Dr. Cain around his office helped, sir," he explained meekly.

(( No, a training weapon. I'd imagine he'd cut off his arm if he did that. ))

"Hopefully you'll keep this up." Zero stated before getting the information he needed to fill in the blanks on the paper. They always started out doing good with paperwork, but slowly, or even sometimes quickly, got progressively lazier. He glanced up at X when he spoke. "Can't say I've talked to him much." The blond said, though he did know who X was talking about.

"I hope not." Zero said before picking up all the papers. "You can have a break to familiarize yourself with the base. You'll have more work to do when you get back." He stated straightening the papers against the desk. He looked down at X as if wondering if the blue reploid had any questions.

"Oh," Zero dug in one of the compartments on his arm before handing X a microchip. "here's a map of the base in case you get lost." He said before turning to leave.

Zero gave a slight wave as if to say no problem before going back to his office and grabbing the other completed files. He carried the somewhat large stack to the file room so he could get it out of his office and where it needed to be so the higher ups wouldn't yell at him.

It took some time but Zero was finally done filing all the papers. He headed back to his office grabbing random paperwork along the way. He didn't have anything more for X to do, but the other lower class Hunters did. It would get thrown in the trash otherwise.

Vile was still bitter about the blue reploid's acceptance into the hunters. At first he had taken it out on the recruits under his command, but Commander Sigma had ordered him away. Stupid Sigma Vile thought, they're my recruits, I can treat them anyway I want. However, at this time, the purple armored hunter noticed the figure of his frustration.

X remained relatively silent for a few moments at being reminded that he'd only barely passed the exams. A C-Class was the lowest ranking Hunter, with the only ones lower being the new trainees. For him to have barely made it in was pretty sad, to say the least.

"Infinite potential...?" X repeated the term with a somewhat surprised tone in his voice. He recalled, faintly, that when his creator named him, he gave him the name X because it was a variable with an infinite number of possibilities, just as he would have an infinite amount of power.

"My creator said that I'm like a variable and can be anything..." he half-mumbled. "That's why he named me X."

"I'm an SA-Ranked hunter!" Vile said smugly, "You know how high up the ranks that is. There is like one hunter here higher than me. So unless he tells us not too, I don't see why not."

Vile was grinning under his mask. Once he had this whimp's variable weapon system, who knows what he could do. He knew one thing, Commander Sigma's orders sure wouldn't disable him anymore.

Vile thought himself lucky when they came across the training room. Empty. That means that no one would disturb them. Let alone that foolish Zero. Once X entered, Vile entered a code into the door to slam it shut.

"Now then X," Vile said, "I think it's best if we train on my personal favorite." Vile entered a few number and holograms appeared almost like a city street, complete with suspended highway. Vile did love training on the urban stage. So easy to get a leg up if you were willing to do what was needed.
