[Zero had told her to stay in his office, but he didn't say anything about answering his comm system. So, when Rock hears a voice on the line, she does what she usually does at home.]
Um! Hello, this is Rock. Zero isn't in. How can I help you, Sir?
[X blinked at the response, confused. Who would be hanging around in the office Zero had used in Central when Zero wasn't in. He kept trying to raise a direct line on other channels even as he responded to the... little girl?]
[This can't be right. It can't. Someone snuck into the SkyRoom and offlined me, then put me in storage, and now... this? Is he a clone? A copy? ...does he even know?]
Axl. [At last a familiar (but not too familiar) voice. But wait-]
...You're not responsible for this, are you?
[The more he thought about it, the less likely it seemed like something Axl would do, but... he needed to be sure before he jumped to any too drastic conclusions.]
[For once, it's not that faux innocent who me tone, but just good old genuine confusion. He hasn't pulled anything since he got here, and he's already doing his time for the marshmallows in Signas's office. Even Axl's not awesome enough to pull off pranks before he actually comes up with them.
...though if they ever perfect time travel, he'll have to give that a try.]

Ah, hello, miss? Do you know where Zero is?

A comrade of Zero's came in on a transport, and he went to greet him. I'm not sure how long it will take for him to get back.
[Enjoy the sounds of Rock-chan trying to see if anything at the console can help locate him, and then enjoy "Never gonna give you up" playing.]
Oh that didn't do what I thought it would.

[Wait, what is she doing over there-- music? This is so surreal after waking up like that...]
Ah, do you mind if I ask what you're doing in Zero's office?

And that someone sounds an awful lot like him.
Immediately he opens up a new channel and pings...essentially himself, which is the strangest thing he'd ever done to date.]
Who is this? How are you transmitting on this frequency?

...I'm Megaman X. ...Who is this?

Loud and clear, X, what's up? You sound kinda tense.

...If you did do this you'd better say so, because otherwise... otherwise, I've got no idea what is going on, but I don't think it's good.
