Duality's Destiny: Middy and Techno's Unbreakable Bond
1 Points
1
You are scouring the aisles of your favorite bookstore, deep in the pages of a captivating fantasy novel, when something shimmers in your peripheral vision. You look down to see two small, metallic objects nestled under one of the bookshelves. Intrigued, you kneel down and pick them up. They are unlike anything you've seen before β intricate, almost otherworldly CPUs, covered in strange markings and faintly glowing symbols.
As you hold the CPUs in your hands, the world begins to warp and twist around you. Your vision blurs, the colors bleed together, and then reality tears apart completely. You try to hold onto that sense of yourself, the solid ground of who you are, but it slips through your fingers.
Something primal, something mechanical starts to stir within you. Your skin starts to harden, transforming into a light gray jumpsuit. You feel the cool, unyielding embrace of metal spreading across your body, your chest encased in blue-and-white armor, your head enveloped by a helmet adorned with a purple gem.
Your voice, once familiar to yourself, deepens, evolving into a more youthful and resonant tone.
"What's happening to me?" you wonder aloud, or at least you think you do β the words feel distant, like an echo from a past life.
Your body shudders, splits, and you find yourself facing another being that is your mirror and yet not. You have become two entities, two Reploids. One decked out in green-and-white (Middy) and the other in purple-and-white (Techno). Your merged human consciousness fragments, and a torrent of foreign memories and experiences invades your minds.
Holding your head, struggling to hold onto the vestiges of the person you used to be, you cry out, "What...what's happening to us?"
"We are...us again," the other voice responds, your other half yet resonating with a strange sense of certainty. "It feels like waking up...from a dream..."
Your human memories, fragile and fading, shatter completely. You and your twin remember everything now. The chaos, the battles, the sacrifices β this is who you are. Middy, the brilliant computer genius, and Techno, the skilled but once manipulated hacker.
Finally, the transformation is complete. Standing in the new futuristic world, the Maverick Hunters' base which pulses with technological life, you look at your twin brother. Middy gazes at Techno, the confusion and fear replaced by recognition and a deep, unspoken connection.
"Techno," you say, voice steady now, fully in your identity, "I forgive you. We have a chance to set things right together."
Techno nods, a wave of relief and gratitude in his red-irised eyes, "I never meant to cause harm, Middy. Sigma used me... but together we can stop him."
In this world, your true home, you and Techno turn towards the path that lies ahead. The past as a single human now a forgotten dream, your true mission as Middy and Techno is finally clear. Armored with renewed purpose, your resolve crystallizes as you stride forward, side by side, to aid the other Maverick Hunters β X, Zero, Axl, and Alia β in saving the world from chaos.
This is who you are meant to be, and always have been. Middy and Techno, forever bound by brotherly love and a destiny shared.

Prompt: Write the POV transformation story of a human reader turning into Middy and Techno (Reploids (sentient robots) from the video game Mega Man Xtreme (a Mega Man X game)), complete with gender change (if the reader is female, the reader loses her feminine curves and genitals (even if the reader is male, he loses his genitals since robots don't have genitals) and her voice deepens into a male's voice; however, the gender change is optional and only if the reader is female), robotitication (turning from a human into a humanoid robot), age regression (becoming a teenager), height regression (shrinking from the reader's 5.6-6 foot height to Middy's and Techno's 4.9 foot height), voice change (becoming those of a teenager's voice), division (the reader splitting apart to become two different characters, with the original reader becoming Middy and his cloned counterpart becoming Techno), reality change (the reader's real world becoming the world of Mega Man X), and mind/mental change (with his memories and personality being completely replaced by those of Middy's and Techno's memories and personality, despite their best efforts on fighting off these changes (with one of them asking on what's happening to them), making them realize that they are returning back to their real/true selves and are waking up to their real/true selves (as Middy and Techno) from their human dreams (they realize that they had never been humans to begin with and they were not a singular entity, despite what their dream would want them to believe), and they remember that they had always been Middy and Techno). The transformation is permanent (meaning it is forever) and is completely irreversible (however, this doesn't bother Middy or Techno, since they had always been this way). Here is Middy's appearance; he is a 4.9 foot tall male Reploid who has a light gray jumpsuit on his body, which is underneath his green metallic chestpiece with a white top and light green lines running down the center from the white (which also has green-and-white shoulder pads), green metallic armlets with lighter green hems (which covers his lower arms), and green metallic knee-high robot feet with light green on the knees and white on the toes. He also has a blue gem on the front of his chestpiece, and a metallic white belt that is fused to his waist area of his light gray jumpsuit. He also has a green and white metallic helmet with a dark gray circle metallic ear on each side of his helmet and a blue gem on forehead, and his face resembles those of a light-skinned human teenager with his eyes having light blue irises in them. Here is Techno's appearance; he is a 4.9 foot tall male Reploid who has a black jumpsuit on his body, which is underneath his purple metallic chestpiece with a light purple bottom and a white lines running down the center from the light purple (which also has purple-and-white shoulder pads), purple metallic armlets with lighter purple hems (which covers his lower arms), and purple metallic knee-high robot feet with white on the knees and light purple on the rims of his robot feet. He also has a red gem on the front of his chestpiece, and a metallic white belt that is fused to his waist area of his black jumpsuit. He also has a purple and white metallic helmet with a white circle metallic ear on each side of his helmet and a red gem on forehead, and his face resembles those of a light-skinned human teenager with his eyes having red irises in them, and unlike Middy's face, his face has purple facial markings (running from his cheeks to his eyes) similar to that of Bass (a Mega Man classic character). Here is the history of both Middy and Techno according to Mega Man Xtreme (before the events of this story); Middy was a Reploid and one of the greatest computer geniuses in the world, and managed the Hunter Base's Mother Computer throughout the game to assist the Maverick Hunters solve the current crisis. Middy had a twin brother named Techno, a skilled hacker who was manipulated by Sigma into using his skills for evil. Techno and the Shadow Hunters hacked into the Hunter Base's Mother Computer mainframe, setting its data to cause chaos all over the world and reproducing fighting data from past Mavericks. In order to hack the Mother Computer, Techno connected his CPU directly to the computer he was using. Sadly, when X destroyed Techno's terminal to stop him from hacking the Mother Computer, he also destroyed Techno's CPU, and because Techno and Middy shared the same CPU, Middy too was killed. However, unlike in Mega Man Xtreme, the CPUs of Middy and Techno are not completely destroyed and have simply become lost (by time traveling themselves from the future world of Mega Man X into the modern times of the real world). The story is that the reader is minding his/her own business, when all the sudden, two badly-damaged CPUs appeared near him/her. The reader has no idea where these CPUs come from nor what were they used for, so he/she picks them up, but then the world around him/her starting warping and changing, with his/her body also completely transforming, gaining a gray jumpsuit blue-and-white metallic armor on his/her body and a helmet on his/her head. The reader himself (now truly a male if the reader was a female before), who was now a humanoid robot with a gray jumpsuit and blue-and-white armor as well as helmet, both with purple gems, is confused on what is happening to him, but then feels a strange feeling as he split apart into two robots, one with a light gray jumpsuit and green-and-white metal (Middy) and the other with a black jumpsuit and purple-and-white metal (Techno). They are more confused then ever by this point, but then their minds become foggy/fuzzy/blurry, as their memories and personality are being erased from their minds through the CPUs (which were once broken but had now been fixed and had become their new brains (in the form of CPUs) in place of their formerly human brains), making them hold their own heads as they try to fight off these unwanted memories (not wanting to lose or forget themselves as a single human), but to no avail. One of the twin Reploids (formerly the human reader) asks on what's happening to them, with both of them then realizing that they are returning back to their real/true selves (which the other twin Reploid (also formerly the human reader) says/confirms that they are returning/waking up to their true selves), awakening from their dream of their supposed single human self, since they are rebooting from their sleep (thus proving that the single human they used to be was not real and was only a strange dream they had, since they both had always been robots, more specifically Reploids, so it was completely impossible for them to have been humans and also impossible to have been a single entity). After awakening, the twin Reploid brothers, Middy (formerly the original reader) and Techno (formerly the cloned reader), looked at each other and both reconcile (with Techno apologizing for his evil plots and such, and Middy truly forgiving him, both of them genuinely loving each other with brotherly love), with both Middy and Techno continuing on in their true lives, helping the other Maverick Hunters (including X himself, Zero himself, Axl himself, Alie herself, etc) save the world, in the futuristic world they had always belonged. There should also be quotes from the characters in this story so we know what they're saying and what they're thinking. Also, it is a POV reader story, so it should not be in an author's point of view (my, I, mine, etc), and it should be from the point of view of the reader (you, your, etc).
