Chapter 3: Easiest Job Yet
Alex went over and jumped down into the tram area. "Something must have been here earlier for transportation; I can't imagine that there wouldn't be an easier way to get to places especially in a ship like this if you can consider this a ship." Alex said as she moved forward feeling a chill as she walked. To the left and right on the walls is ice with things encased in them. "What are these things anyway?" Alex continued to walk forward keeping herself on her toes. Finally she came to another area and Alex started up the latter slowly. She peeked up and noticed one of the things and went back down. 'I'll just go to the next area.' Alex whispered and jumped back down and ran forward. She had been walking for about three minutes when something was heard. Alex looked around for what had made the noise. "Show yourself, whatever you are." Alex said as she flipped around just in time to dodge an attack. The thing that had attacked her is big and bulky. "What are you?" Alex demanded.
"I'm a Brute, and who are you witch?" The Brute asked in a deep scratchy voice.
"I'm Alex; now let's get this over with big boy." Alex said rushing toward the Brute. Once she got in reach of it, it swung its arm which knocked Alex back into a wall. Alex hit the floor and quickly got back up. "That all you got Brute?" Alex then rushed at him again dodging the charge by jumping over him. Alex quickly latched onto its back and then stabbed it repeatedly in the back. The Brute screamed in pain and soon fell over dead. "I better get out of here." Alex said and then ran off to the next area. Alex jumped up to the next floor and found the entrance blocked by solid ice. "Whatever happened here, the person isn't in the area they wanted to be." Alex said noticing the ice sticking out in her direction rather then sticking out on the other side. "Looks like my best shot will be heading forward more." Alex said as she started to leave when ice flew past her and three things carrying something big and yellow. "I'm definitely out of here." Alex said as she jumped down and ran forward.
Alex had finally made it to the next area and found that there is nothing at all to be found. "Finally, now maybe I can get a break." Alex walked over to the door and made her way through. Soon something could be heard. Shots of some kind could be heard. "I have to hurry." Alex said making her way through door after door and into a big area. In front of her are tons of creatures and soon she saw something fly into the air. Alex ran over jumping over heads and soon slowed down not knowing why. Soon Alex was able to move again and found something with blades for arms standing above someone. Quickly Alex jumped into the creature and knocked it away. She stabbed the thing in the head and then noticed a Brute behind her as she flipped around. Alex jumped into the air and slammed down onto its back and stabbing it. "I had better be careful in here." Alex said as she looked behind her seeing something with the big yellow thing. Alex jumped off the Brute just as the thing swung down its yellow blob and exploded. Alex was sent flying through the air. Alex landed hard on the ground and found a small cut on her arm.
"How did that happen?" Alex asked and then flipped onto her stomach and stood up and then saw a blade in front of her with fresh blood on the tip. "Now it makes sense." Alex said getting up off the ground. She flipped around and noticed the army of creatures coming toward her. However there aren't near as much as before and so Alex rushed forward never slowing down and ripped off one creature's arms after another. Soon after a few cuts and scraps, the things were dead and the whole place filled with blood spots and puddles. Alex then grew dizzy and collapsed to the ground. She shook her head to try and clear her dizziness. After a few seconds, she managed to stand up. "What was that?" Alex asked.
Forgetting about what had just happened; Alex went over to the person and picked the person up. "I better get her or him somewhere a little safer then here." Alex went over to the first door she came to and headed down and into the elevator. Alex set the person down and then went over to the controls. 'Great, how am I supposed to keep this up here if the controls are smashed?' Alex whispered and then thought of something. "I'm technically still a wizard, so maybe I can fix the controls." Then something behind Alex appeared on the wall with words.
Warning, life signs draining, health vial needed.
Alex looked to see where the writing was coming from and then made a decision to try and help the person. Alex quickly said an on the spot spell which caused a shock to roll through the person.
Life signs stabilizing.
"Good, now to." Alex didn't get to finish her sentence. "Ahhhhh." Alex screamed as she fell to the floor holding her head. Soon she found herself growling and then she fell to the ground unconscious.
Back at Samus ship, Rime heard something in the ship. Rime went over to the screen which said Samus in danger, death in one minute. "On no." Rime fell back into a chair holding her forehead. Then another message appeared which says, life stable but weak. "Samus, please make it back alive." Rime then went over to lay down when the radar on the ship started blinking. "Another ship heading up here. NO, no one should be here. Whoever it is must be sent back." Rime tried to contact the ship from inside. Soon she got an answer back.
"NO, my wife is up here and I'm not leaving without her." The person said back.
"Wife?" Rime asked herself not bothering to argue with the person in the other ship.
