Mother Elf Birth?
Cataloging the events in X8. The 'Final Battle' on the Moon. Sigma was the first main opponent And upon defeat, was in a sense cast aside for Lumine. Who ended up 'Crushing' some remnant of Sigma's body. And immediately afterward, was 'powered' with something. This could have been his body absorbing the Virus and increasing his power output. Also explaining his 'transformation'.
This being the prime source of the speculation. After defeat, Lumine's body shatters, and a 'Gel' type substance strikes Axl in his forehead crystal. Immediately Zero cuts the gel. Now this could have been a final attempt for Lumine to forge himself within Axl. But with the cut from Zero, that transfer was halted. Only a small amount of something was within Axl's forehead. And taking into account the flashback within X4, how Sigma defeated Zero with this same move, was the instance of Sigma being infected.
Now, at this part there can be 2 speculations. With Lumine's defeat (had he absorbed Sigma's Virus) that gel could have had a small amount of Virus. And with it being incomplete could reforge using Axl's Prototype based DNA. Or, after that desperation attack, rendering Axl unconsciousness, any floating Sigma Virus sentience would have the means to enter within Axl's body. So either way, Axl would have something to do with Sigma from then on.
After these events, we know that Axl is fine in regards to him in Command Mission. But after that, the Force Metal Incident.
There would be small traces of Sigma Virus on Earth, since it is not all gone at this point. It is just minimal thanks to the Copy Chip, and the New Generations. But the Virus would still be rampant regardless.
After those events, the timeline takes us to Zero's sealing. This being the process to research his body, research the Virus in him, and th 'Purge' it.
Remembering MegaMan X5. The Sigma Virus, the Colony Virus and the Zero Virus... They all tie to Sigma. So with the research on Zero, would ultimately lead them to Sigma Virus. However, with regards to Axl, with the 2 possibilities that happen to him, he would be the updated carrier of the Virus. The New Gen Virus you could say. Which would have led to some conflict between Axl and X (remembering Zero 1's X statement: "Having fought this war for nearly a hundred years alone").
Taking that into account, something happened between them. Which would have led to Axl being killed, or rendered unconscious again for study. Either way, his body would be in another sentience control. And during that research, the ties of Virus and everything, they would have enough info to create the True Anti-Sigma-Virus program. Project Elpis. Or Mother Elf.
With Axl dead or alive, his body is condemned to research. And being a Prototype, his DNA base would already be slightly different. And after conversations (taking him being alive approach), he could have chosen to be the Anti-Virus carrier Per se. Once the Program was completed, they would remove Axl's DNA Soul from his body, maintaining his consciousness. Just encrypting him with the Anti-Virus program. This would result in a DNA base change which would remake up His persona. The change forged Mother Elf. The True Ant-Sigma-Virus.
Had he been dead, they could have either used his body to 'contact' or lure his DNA soul back around his body for the process to work. Or, if he was dead, and something took over his body, then that would have led to them using the Anti-Virus on his body. Which would have destroyed that Virus, and forged with his DNA remnant data to create Mother Elf. Just got to remember, that Axl's Copy Chip was also a Prototype. It didn't contain Sigma DNA. So this could mean that the lack of Sigma DNA may have either a defensive purpose against the Virus. Or the lack of defensive properties meaning him becoming the 'Child of Sigma' is a possibility.
Don't forget, the Anti-Sigma-Virus is only encrypted to Axl's DNA Soul. This union isn't permanent. It in a sense gives birth to the unified program, the Mother Elf.
Which would be the dawn of the Cyber Elf, either approach taken. Since the technology used for Mother Elf, would have led them down the discovery path to Cyber Elfs.
It is long shots, but they do make sense.

BioMetal Origins.
Centuries ago (between 2 and 300 years), the man named Weil, was a scientist within Reploid technology. having been prone to sinister acts, and crimes against humanity (possibly Reploid), and was sentenced to eternity of banishment. Without being consulted by X, Weil was subdued and was taken to an isolated arena where his mind and consciousness was pooled into a robotic type body. The only one known to exist. This being of a subjected material highly primitive but may have been a milestone for further thresholds. But this technology accepting his mind and consciousness, and capable of responding to his mentality as if it here his body (wounds heal faster since the flesh is synthetic).
Once the process was completed, Weil was finally banished into the outskirts of the land, to suffer eternity of nothingness... And never being questioned about surviving. That technology was left underdeveloped at that time (that we know of till centuries post), and no one knows of what happened to his human body (frozen Beef Theory initiation?).
However, Weil survived, spending all his years pondering what he will do, what he could use to manifest his plans, etc. And once he managed to return to life areas, began work for revenge against those who damned him to such a life.
This led to the 8 Judges, and Ragnarok. However, Omega's shuttle may have been influenced by Weil to crash back to Earth... However, utilizing the specs of his body, the technology he pondered and the technology currently present, ultimately led to the conception of Ragnarok, and the Core, Laevatein. Which obviously was compatible with Weil's body. In the way that it can manifest over Weil in a form of suit. And part of of Weil in the form of the Final Weil encounter.
Once Weil was fused with Laevatein, in that sense, the entire station connected to Laevatein was altered just the same. It all was processing in and from Weil. The station became Weil. That Union is the first representation of consciousness merging with machinery, the first Basis for BioMetal. And upon his defeat, the station crashed into the Atmosphere and exploded. Raining debris all over the world. Fragmenting the soon-to-be BioMetal into Cores.
With that said, every part of Laevatein was still active, just needing awareness. This was granted through the suffering and anguish of many people/reploids. And absorption of Cyber Elfs.
During such, Ceil managed to locate Zero and the others, after giving up hope of looking around Earth, and started searching the Cyber Network. Upon locating them, Ceil shed her tears, but vowed to bring them back. And after discovering Model W and being part of the Research group investigating it, she learned enough of the Laevatein fusion/Weil remains in order to either reproduce that material, or utilized parts of it. To which later became the Ceil 6. After the consciousness of the 6 were integrated within the material. BioMetal was thus being born.
Albert took his approach from creating the Model W fragment, and utilized that knowledge to create Model A. Being the 7th known BioMetal...
But this raises the possibility that Prairie may have been interested in following her "Sis's" footsteps. Suggesting that she may get involved with BioMetal research. Flueve doesn't help this since he was the one to analyze the date from the Ceil 6... So that leads to at least 1 possibility for a sequel setting.
Completely excluding Model O, the 'Naturally occurring' BioStone. To which I will cover later.
PS: This can also lead to the development of synthetic biomechanical technology present within the ZX series that only gets enhanced and more refined within the Millennial gap between ZX and Legends. The eventual birth of the Carbons... But that is another topic for another time.

Wily Virus. Speculation MK I.
This takes chance with my 'Origin Virus' theory. And I can offer at least 1 piece of evidence that the program was initially a Virus. From technical aspects, a program cannot leak to another hardware based system, unless it is sent and accepted. Otherwise it is a Virus, a Spread program. Be it either a Worm, a Trojan, or a simple 'Crash' type Virus.
Either that, or it was a program that behaves like a Virus... But that is not the point.
Back in the era 20XX, Wily stumbled across a crash site with the remains of an alien robot... Scavenging through the wreckage, he discovers the 'Evil Energy'. This is the entire basis. As we know, Dur arrived at the same time, and after being 'repaired' went on to destroy the Evil Energy as he located it. But at the end, he states that he leaves the remains to MegaMan. Feeling like his 'Justice Energy' will overpower the Evil and bring peace...
But continuing on, Wily remained to have some left over, and with his mind, grew the Energy to utilize within his 'Experiments'. This Energy having an interaction on a mental level, gave Wily the idea for a form of 'Mind Control'. With the Energy tapping into ones mind, this gave Wily a means to focus on the energy and in a way, capture his will. However crude, but primitive as it was, seemed to work. Example is King in MegaMan & Bass. The machine for Mind Control. And then King's purple alteration.
With that in mind, Wily went on to further his development of that particular invention. Constantly developing methods to utilize the energy in alternative means. Till finally, it dawned on him. The Energy can communicate to machinery. On a digital level. And since the Energy is linked to his mind, that gave Wily a means to ultimately 'download' his mentality into a data form. The means can be speculated that he copied his mentality over a long peroid of time, then set his computer system network to initiate programs after his Death. This being done in the way that he sensed his time was up, and hooked himself up to the appropriet connections, and once he died, the computer downloaded his 'soul'. In a sense. This capable of merging with the recorded mentality, the Will would become a form of consciousness not bound to flesh. And following network order, would be collected within the Capsule containing Zero, and slowly integrating that Will into Zero's mind.
This being the 'Will' that forces Zero into a blood lust state. And also is the same Virus that integrates to Sigma. From that fateful punch to Zero's forehead crystal during the Virus interruption. Contacting Zero directly, which causes Zero pain. He fights against it since it is abnormal. Once Sigma struck and broke the Crystal, and during the Virus communication, it spread to Sigma. The victor over the Masterpiece of the original being for the 'Will'.
This is why Sigma didn't turn Maverick very quickly. Sigma was constantly having an internal struggle with another entity. Which ultimately led to Sigma's 'Revelation' for Reploid kind. And his interest in X. Also explains why Zero looses his malicious nature after the fight.
Once the Virus spread to Sigma, knowing that Zero failed in his mission for the first time. The Virus had an alternative use as well. Spreading to other reploids causing Mavericks. In a blitzkreg type tactic. Hoping that one of them could defeat his rival's Legacy.
Pure speculation, but it does make sense in the intended alternative way.

Omega, rather Model O. MK II.
Continuing from the last post, Model O and the Host interactions. As already stated, Model O would be a parasite to the Host. Meaning it is draining either the host, of feeding off of Cyber Elf's in order to maintain manifest. With that, their interactions would not be one sided. The host would either be fighting Model O internally, or would be submitting to his will. Both would play a role within the climax. Depending on how you behave during, would judge what happens at the end.
If the host was forced to do something ill-fated, the host would in tern either enjoy the action and result, or would despise it and further his disgust for the Model. Example: "Host walks through a city street. Get's insulted or whatever. The host can either ignor Model O's urges for destruction, or feed into it. Resulting in either walking away, getting weaker from the insubordination. Or would be driven to get rid of the fellow. And whatever is around as collateral damage.
That would play a constant 'struggle' within the concept. In that it will alter the end climax and the end result depending on interaction display.
Leading on, this would become a plot driver. Meaning this would be the reason that Model O unintentionally seeks the New Being. Model O is unaware of anything more powerful at the time, and at first would only be driving for itself. But, with him constantly battling with the host, or vice versa, it knows that it needs to keep treading on.
And that comes to Model O's realization. That there must be a stronger being out there. If he exists, others must as well. This in turn triggers a search fo strong oponents. Which leads to the encounter of the New Being. With this encounter, Model O's lust is overwhelmed and is blindingly urging his Host to fight. So strong that the host is compelled to fallow through. Triggering the end of defeating the being. Model O Leaches off of it for a short time, only to discover that the Being is renewing itself. This leads to a direct follow up.
But as for alterations. If you choose to oppose the Model, the final battle is more difficult because you are slowly being drained, and at the end, the host ends up not destroying someone very close to him/her. In such a way that Model O absorbs the last bit of life, killing the host. Resulting in the 'good ending'. The hoist martyred him/herself to protect which led to their demise.
The other would be that the host ends up destroying the other, and becomes consumed with Model O. Reaching a similar line between the Model and Host, they continue on, on a path of destruction in search of the New being.
See? Rough, but there is enough to get a mental play going. So with this under protection of the "First Right's" this remains the property of Zechs and Telos. MegaManX9.com holding the rights.

Omega, rather Model O.
And following that (including unused sprites), Omega's reincarnation would have played a seemingly larger role, than some 'fanservice' boss/unlockable. However that is not the case within the final product, as that is exactly what we got. And including the ZX:Advent unused sprites as well, it further suggests that Model O would have returned to become a boss. Optionable most likely.
But I, and a fellow member from MegaManX9.Com by the name of Telos, have come up with an idea that would implement Model O, and further the ZX story. Well, from our perspectives anyway. But I must offer credit to Telos for even initiating the thread that led us to conceive and agree upon our idea. So Kudo's man.
Now I will roughly draft our idea (as to not loose 'First Rights' to the internet).
We conceived that CyberSpace would become yet another optionable place to explore and would be further drawn for story purpose. Since this concept in a sense revolves around CyberSpace. Someone on mandatory study within CyberSpace would end up locating a Data pool for severely outdated data, and would led to the instigation of further BioMetal.
To be blunt, within that Data Pool contains the data essence for every Reploid and Cyber-Elf to have lost it's manifestation and decomposed to a raw data format. It could be referred to as the 'Trash" section within online networks.
They would consider it as a mainstream project, (Thanks mainly to utilizing Model O for the dimensional rifts as being the prime source), and would delve within it in a 'study'. Which would led them to the Sigma code. Since there is more code revolving around Sigma, there would be more similar data to link. Mother Elf, Reploid Sigma, Virus Sigma, the Sigma Virus (yes, it is different), Colony Virus (leading back to Sigma Virus), Reploid Sigma DNA, Sigma Virus incarnations... Copy Chip Sigma (revised patch for the Reploid Sigma. Hence the design difference).
But continuing, this would become a subject of interest, and would eventually led to a realization for Sigma to be forged into BioMetal form. With Ourourborus having crashed into the Ocean, it's parts are still applicable to the same research that Ceil conducted to create the original 6 variants.
Sigma not becoming a BioMetal, (coming from the Sigma Virus incarnation point of view, hence Mother Elf reference), It would behave in a sinister method. Most likely it would locate his BioMatch, and would initiate his search for the most powerful being around (I.E. the Virus reference). And upon discovering an applicable portion of Model W Core that is still possessing it's 'Will', Model S would in turn forge itself with Model W Core. Resulting in a whole new being. Since the merge would accumulate with both portions (completing each other in a full sense), it would become more than just a core, it would become a being with the Will of 2 beings, the power of Sigma and the maliciousness of Model W Core. This would become more or less a catastrophe character for CyberSpace and the material world.
That takes care of the ultimate Villain for the concept. Now to cover the 'protagonist'.
With Model O playing the role of 'protagonist' it would obviously refer to the BioStone being able to choose itself a BioMatch. Well in a sense. With how Omega is presented within Zero 3 and within ZX, a safe speculation would be that Omega has more or less a type of direct connection to CyberSpace. His power emitting capable of causing dimensional rifts between the 2 plains of the world. That would also apply tho his behavior. Being a type of 'power consuming' entity. Hence Weil's capability for controlling him. Weil had something Omega could have benefited from. And with Omega, in a sense being Maverick Zero, would consist of a more instinct type consciousness. But fully capable of everything else conscious being is. Just revolves around instinct more.
This would play a role for the 'during' part of the concept.
Model O, being power hungry, would locate a BioMatch that has a lot of energy to sustain him/herself as well as Model O. Since Model O would need a host to act as transport, a more powerful being is necessary. Upon locating the BioMatch, it would synchronize up and would become more or less a 'parasitic union'. And when the Model O senses that the host is weakening, it can simply create a dimensional rift and absorb a Cyber-Elf or 2. It would act as an alternative source of energy.
But this is where a twist occurs. Model O would be the instinct type, meaning it would more or less eliminate anything to get in his way. And he would use the host to get the job done. This would in turn create an internal conflict between the host and the Model. Becoming a form of 'urgency' for the host, and furthering character development for both.
With the union, the host would be forced to either continuously fight Model O for the dominance of the body, or to submit. Both plays crucial to the ending climax.
This will conclude the first half of the speculation for another concept.
