Chapter 1
Deep in outer space, a massive deception space ship was flying over the planet Cybertron. The ship, known as the Nemesis, was filled with alien creatures known as Xenomorphs, alien robots known as Decepticons, and reconstructed walking corpses known as Necromorphs. Something stomped out to the bridge of the ship. It possessed a Decepticon body, with Necromorph appendages growing from the back. The face was chubby with curled hair and blood red eyes. Next to him was a Xenomorph Empress with a human face behind the alien jaws. The face was female with black markings, completely black eyes, and sharpened teeth. The alien creatures on board stood at attention. One of the Decepticons spoke.
Decepticon: Hail, Steven!
Decepticon: Hail, Mabel!
Steven: Now now, quiet down now. Thank you. Megatron!
One of the Decepticons walked forward.
Megatron: My master. You wish to speak with me?
Steven: I have a special project for you.
He held up a tube with a pathogen inside.
Megatron: What is that?
Steven: The Blacklight Virus. Also known as the Mercer Virus. This virus, grants the host extreme physical prowess and capabilities. They can morph into anything they "consume" with their same powers and memories. I have a special need for this virus. I want you and your scientists to combine it with the necromorph pathogen. With it, I can revive a much needed ally.
Megatron: I will put Shockwave on the job.
Shockwave flew in in jet form, and morphed into his single eyed robot.
Shockwave: I will need a sample of the necromorph pathogen.
Steven: Of course.
He whistled, and an Infector flew to latch onto Shockwave's shoulder. Steven handed him the tube.
Shockwave: I will get it done immediately.
Shockwave took the samples to his lab on the Nemesis.
Steven: Soundwave.
Soundwave walked forward and stood in front of Steven.
Steven: How is our latest project coming along?
Soundwave: Production is 85% complete. I do require a name for this miniature machine.
Steven: You can call it...Hyper Metal Sonic.
Soundwave: Hyper Metal Sonic is now 87% complete.
Steven: Excellent. Continue work with it. Don't forget to shift your attention to GLaDOS from time to time. After her death, she could use repairs.
Soundwave: Of course.
Soundwave moved to his mechanical workshop.
Mabel: I've been meaning to ask you what you want with the Blacklight Virus.
Steven: We're are headed to the wreckage of the space ship where the first necromorphs ever were created.
They looked out of the view port to the wreckage of the Ishimura.
Steven: The Ishimura.
Shockwave: (Over the intercom) Steven. The synthesis is complete. The virus will now not only resurrect the dead into necromorphs, but it will give them the enhanced physical power of the Mercer virus.
Steven: Good. Bring it to me.
Hours passed, and Steven was onboard the Ishimura. The synthesized pathogen was in a mechanical tube in his arm. As he walked through, the necrotic sludge began to morph into necromorphs under his influence. He finally reached the body he was looking for. He knelt over it, and injected it with the pathogen in his arm from his finger. The body began to reconstruct to a regular human form, with bright red veins and glowing energy. Appendages repeatedly grew around his limbs and retracted as control of his body came over him. When his eyes opened, he was completely reconstructed to a regular human form. He was brought back to life.
Steven: Welcome back from the dead, Ferb Flynn-Fletcher.
