In 22XX, one hundred years after zero's ending in Megaman X6, which is stated to take place an unknown number of years after the end of the X series, Ciel, the leader of the resistance against Neo Arcadia, manages to find and ressurect who she believes to be Zero, but at the cost of dozens of resistance lives. Zero realizes that he has amnesia, so his past is a mystery to him and he doesn't know what to do. Having just been awakend and with no other direction, Zero decides to follow Ciel's directions, perhaps because of how much she said that she believed in him, despite not knowing for sure if he was really Zero.
Ciel quickly informs Zero about the twisted politics of Neo Arcadia. As it turns out, Ciel created a copy of X, Zero's old friend, who now rules of Neo Arcadia, with the help of his four guardians: Fefnir, Harpuia, Leviathan, and Phantom. This copy of X wasn't doing anything morally questionable at first, but as Neo Arcadia began suffering from an energy crisis, Copy X started "retiring" innocent reploids throughout the city, killing them for the sake of lowering energy costs and with little justification, if any. Ciel expains that the resistance was created to provide a safe haven for those innocent reploids and that she was working on a solution to the energy crisis, which would hopefully end the pointless slaughter of innocent reploids.
