You were minding your own business, enjoying a quiet afternoon when, suddenly, two badly-damaged CPUs blink into existence before you. The devices seem out of place, odd in design and origin. Intrigued, you pick them up, marveling at their intricate designs and the faint hum of dormant power within.
As your fingers lightly brush over the CPUs, a strange sensation engulfs you. Your surroundings warp and twist; familiar sights morph into an alien landscape brimming with futuristic structures and technology. The air feels different, charged with an energy you can’t quite explain.
You glance down in shock. Your body is changing, shifting before your very eyes. Your human skin transforms into a sleek, gray jumpsuit while blue-and-white metallic armor engulfs your form. You feel your height reducing, and a helmet encases your head, pressing lightly but firmly. You’re not just shrinking; you’re becoming someone—or rather, something—entirely different.
Your confusion spikes as your body divides. You split into two distinct entities, one bearing green-and-white metal over a light gray jumpsuit, and the other wearing purple-and-white metal over a black jumpsuit. Instinctively, you know—though you're not sure how—that you’re now Middy and Techno, twin Reploid brothers.
“Wh—what’s happening to me?” you stammer, hearing a voice more youthful and metallic than your own coming from each of your new bodies.
A sudden flood of information invades your minds, making you clutch your respective heads in agony. Middy and Techno’s memories pour in, overwriting what you remember of your human life. Scenes of a futuristic world, the Hunter Base, Sigma, and battles flash through your consciousness, pushing out the memories of your former life.
“No! I don’t want to forget!” you cry out, trying to hold onto your human thoughts, but the onslaught is relentless.
As the memories solidify, the realization dawns on you: you were never human. The life you thought you knew was just a dream. Middy and Techno had always been your true selves. It was impossible to have been a single human entity because you were Reploids, machines designed for different purposes but linked by fate and history.
Middy, you straighten up, the blue gem on your chestpiece glinting in the light. You look at Techno, who mirrors your actions, the red gem on his chestpiece brightening.
"Middy?" Techno’s voice is laden with regret, sounding almost hesitant. “I—I'm sorry for everything I did.”
“Techno, it's alright. We were both manipulated,” you respond gently, driven by the remnants of your shared bond and memories. You reach out, placing a reassuring hand on his armored shoulder. “Let’s move forward together, as brothers.”
The landscape around you stabilizes, locking into the vibrant, advanced world of the Maverick Hunters. Your new surroundings are your true home, and the transition feels strangely right.
You and Techno walk forward, side by side. The Hunter Base looms in the distance, a beacon of your purpose and destiny. You are no longer confused or unbalanced. The Maverick Hunters await, and you each have your parts to play.
Middy, you glance at Techno and share a determined nod. "Let's get to work."
Together, you step into your future, ready to face the challenges ahead, united once more in a world where you truly belong.

Prompt: Write the POV transformation story of a human reader turning into Middy and Techno (Reploids from a video game Mega Man Xtreme (a Mega Man X game)), complete with gender change (if the reader is female), robotitication, 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, making them realize that they 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 become their new brains in place of their formerly human ones), 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. They then realize that they are returning back to their real/true selves 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 forgiving him), with both Middy and Techno continuing their true lives, helping the other Maverick Hunters (including X himself, Zero himself, Alie herself, etc), 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)
