Chapter 3
The man turned around in his seat so I got a good look at the man and I could barely suppress a gasp. "Anthony." I said. His skin was darker and his eyes were glassy as if he had gotten drunk at the tavern down the street or maybe he's seen too much chaos I couldn't tell. "Wow I can't believe your back." Anthony mumbled. "You're finally back." He said shaking his head and chuckled a little bit. "What do you mean I'm back?" I asked in a concerned voice. "I can't believe your back." He repeated. "Anthony what do you mean I'm back, you're talking nonsense." I said crossing my arms over my chest. He looked up at me with sad glassy eyes. "Take off the helmet." He said quietly. I shook my head. "I don't think that's necessary." I said taking a step back from the desk. Anthony stiffened. "Sorry it's just been so long…" He trailed off. I couldn't stand seeing him like this. "Anthony what's going on?" I said taking a couple of steps closer to the desk. "The Federation-"He mumbled and looked at the ground. I took off my helmet and put it on the desk, but he didn't look up. "Anthony look at me." I said, but he didn't look up. I had already lost so much I didn't want to lose Anthony too. "Look at me." I said. He looked up at me I couldn't tell what his strongest emotion was, because there were so many written on his face. Pain, lost, despair, love, joy, defeat, surprise and anger. The glaze over his eyes melted away for a mere moment, before becoming emotionless again. I moved around the desk and bent down so I was face to face with him. He closed his eyes. "I've lost everyone, princess, everyone is gone." He said lowly so only the two of us could hear. "No Anthony, you haven't lost everyone, because I'm still here and alive." He didn't open his eyes. "Hey, look at me, I'm still here, I promise." He opened his eyes and his brown ones met my blue. He nodded. "I'm still here." I mumbled and he rested his head against mine. "Princess, you're here." He repeated. I closed my eyes. "Yeah I'm here." I said. "The Federation they're making bio-weapons-"The door burst open and I jumped back and charged up my arm cannon. Three men in black armor and black helmets stepped in their guns pointed right at me. "Freeze, you are under arrest by the Galactic Federation." The man said. I looked over at Anthony. The glaze in his eyes was gone and was replaced by blazing eyes, the eyes of a solider. I gave him a small nod that only the original 07th Platoon could catch with their bare eyes. The soldiers started to flank me. "Head's up." I said. Anthony's gun whacked caught one of the soldiers in the side of the head knocking him unconscious. Gun fire rang out, but the room was covered in smoke and I realized that Anthony must have had a smoke bomb ready just in case we couldn't take out all three guards at the same time. I walked backwards picturing the room before the smoke bomb went off. The standing in the middle of the room so that meant the desk and giant window was right behind me and the door was too my left. I made my way carefully over to the desk and grabbed my helmet off the desk, clicked it into place and I heard Anthony's voice coming through my ear piece. "Hey Princess, we still have to get out of here or do you need to take a break and go to your castle to freshen up?" Anthony asked. "No, let's get out of here and when we do, we need to talk about you comeback skills." I said making my way to the side of the room. "Hey it's been a while." Anthony said through his mic. The smoke cleared and I spotted Anthony in the far corner his gun aimed at the door. "Hey Princess, get ready to fire there's going to be at least thirty trained soldiers behind that door ready to fire." He said and merely nodded. I shrugged. "Finally a good challenge." I said charging up my arm cannon and getting into battle stance. Anthony chuckled. "That's my Samus." I heard him say. "We're going to have to get to the hanger so we can get my ship, do you think you can manage?" I asked looking over at him. He had on a helmet that I didn't recognize then again his helmet broke on the bottleship mission. The thought of the bottleship mission left a sickening pit in my stomach, but I shook it off. The door burst open and just like Anthony said thirty guys wearing all black and guns twice as big as the ones I used to use when I was a solider here. I smirked this was going to be fun. "Freeze." The man in the front said he must have been one of the head soldiers in his Platoon. "Hello commander, I was just talking to my friend about you, would you like to join us." Anthony said picking an over turned chair and setting it back where it belonged. "No sir I was just checking up on you, who is your friend?" The commander said nodding my direction. "Oh how rude of me, Commander Adam Awing meet Samus Aran." I flinched at the name and I could've sworn I heard Anthony mumble here we go. "Wait like the bounty hunter?" The Commander said. I stayed silent something about what Anthony said made me hesitate. "That stupid bounty hunter that "saves" the galaxy and saves planets. I don't believe that crap. She blows up planets for no reason and she is a loner who only thinks of herself. I've never seen her armor, but I heard she got it when her poor little planet got destroyed. So we get all slaughtered and what she gets a kick ass suit of armor. You know she couldn't even save her own old commander…." I had enough. I stood and punched the Commander in the face and I heard a crack, but I ignored it and turned to face Anthony. "Let's go." I said in a monotone voice. We grabbed weapons and ran down the hallway. Alarms blared as we ran through the hallways that were tinted red because of the alarm lighting hanging on the wall. I heard footsteps nearing, but I didn't turn back to look. "Are you ready to do this?" Anthony asked, but I could hear the true question in his statement. Are you ok. I nodded. "Yeah, I guess you won't be getting any more missions from the Federation." Anthony joked trying to lighten the mood. "Good riddance, the bastards didn't pay me enough to find their bounties anyway." I said and I heard Anthony laugh through his helmet. We turned the corner and saw the double doors that led to the hangar. "There's the way to the hangar." I said. I pushed at the double doors, but nothing happened. I rolled my eyes and kicked the door and it burst open. "Old School." I said making Anthony laugh again. "There." I said pointing to my ship on the last dock. I heard voices behind me. Loud and demanding. "Hey Princess, we have company." Adam said. I stopped and looked over my shoulder and saw that Anthony was right. Fifty men (Possibly more.) lined in front of a door with black armor and scolding faces holding all sorts of weapons. The line parted and the Commander stepped out in front of the line. His nose was now bandaged, but the bandage was red from blood. "Samus Aran, the soldier that left the Federation and went rogue." He spat. "I didn't agree with you tactics anymore and I didn't want to be ruled over by dumb asses like you." I mused. I could see the fire in his eyes, but I didn't back down. "You are the one who blew up the Bottleship and destroyed all of that evidence." He growled. I nodded. "How do you like the makeover I gave you? I think that I did a pretty good job of making you prettier. Captain Higgs what do you think?" I asked turning my head towards Anthony. "You did great Sam, but maybe you can aim more for the smoky eye look next time." He mused and I almost laughed out loud. "Your right I think that would complete the look." I said grinning behind my helmet. "That's enough, I don't know why Adam Malcovich took time to be a father figure to you or a friend to you, but Commander Malcovich legacy ends now." The Commander said. No one could react, before Anthony was on top of him pounding his face in. "Adam Malcovich was an honorable man, he died to save the galaxy and he is ten times the man you will ever be and his legacy will live ten thousands more years than yours ever will." Adam growled. I've never seen him like this. The sound of safety turning off on the guns snapped me out of my daze and as much as I would love to see the man get his guts punched out of him I pulled Anthony off of him and he stumbled backwards. "I thought you out of all people would never let Adam, be criticized like that." He shook his head. "Look at the position we're in." I said. He looked around and saw all guns were pointed in our direction. Then the reality hit me. We would never make it to my ship with this many guys on us. "I have a plan, so that you can make it to your ship." Anthony said through his head piece. I felt a sinking feeling, but I nodded. "Let's do it." I said. He stepped right in front of me and pointed his gun at the Commanders leg and fired and it hit dead point in the leg. "That's what Adam Malcovich taught me." He yelled and took off in the other direction sprinting down the hangar. All of the soldiers followed him and I quickly made my way over to my ship. I jumped when I heard gunfire and screaming. I hoped and prayed that was a soldiers scream and not Anthony's. I slipped behind one of the ships and charged up my arm cannon, before making stepping cautiously from behind the ship. A single gun fire rang in my ears and a sharp pain erupted in my shoulder. I fell to one knee and held my shoulder and looked up scanning the area for the sniper when I spotted two shiny brown eyes in a dark corner of the hangar. A blind spot to those who were on the hangars ground due to the large ships. The figure stood and jumped down from the tiny area and landed across from me. It was the soldier from earlier, but her warm eyes from earlier had been replaced with a cold murderous grin. "Commander Adam is going to be very pleased to see your head on his wall." She said in an icy voice. "Not a chance." I said standing up and looking her dead in the eyes. "You fought so hard hero, why don't you just die, nobody appreciates or understands you. Why don't you just close your eyes and let it get over with. You can see your Adam again." She whispered walking over to me and putting two fingers in my wound. I gritted my teeth. The offer sounded really good. I would be able to see my parents, Adam, the rest of the 07th Platoon and I wouldn't have to fight for my life anymore it sounded so good. I closed my eyes and I could see the faces of the ones I lost. My parents, Adam, the 07th Platoon, Old Bird all of them standing there with warm and welcoming smiles a bright light behind them. I smiled I wanted to go and hug all of them and tell them I am sorry for letting them down, but before I could take another step down the path towards those who I called family another path lit up. Link, Zelda, Pit, Peach, Pikachu and Ike all stood there with warm smiles and open arms. "Come on Sammy, I want you back in my arms again and not in a coffin." Ike said with a warm smile. I looked back over my shoulder towards my family and friends that died for me. "But." I said. Adam stepped forward. "Lady, the galaxy needs you to protect it, because you're the only one that can defend it." Adam said and my dad stepped forward. "Sammy, listen to your Commander, you're not ready to be with us you still have a life to live. You have a place among friends and family go and enjoy it. He pointed to my friends across the room. They love you as much as we do and remember we will always be right here." He said pointing to my heart. I turned towards my mother. She had a sad smile on her face and her blonde hair was pulled back the way it was when I was a child. "Sammy, don't be afraid, you still have a long life ahead of you, and friends who love you Link, Zelda, Pit, Peach, Pikachu, those are the people that love you the most trust them." My mother said. "I don't want you to leave." I said tears forming in my eyes. Old Bird stepped forward and smiled. "Child we never left you, you will always have us as guidance and we love you. Now go and join your friends." He said. I turned back towards my friends and ran into that direction. I opened my eyes and gritted my teeth. "Never." I said and punched her with my gun arm making her stumble backwards and I shot her with my arm cannon. "Where's an easy button when you want one." I mumbled. Gunfire echoed through the hangar. I ran through the ships gritting my teeth as the pain ran through my body. I boarded my ship and turned on the engine. "Adam, start the engine." I said and flipped on a couple of switches and the Hunter IV roared to life. I saw Anthony run past my ship. "Anthony what are you doing come on." I said. "Princess, he sounded weak yet strong at the same time. You got to get out of here right now go without me." He said and there was static before his voice came back online just in time to hear his words. "I love you Princess." I watched as a bullet entered his head and blood splattered everywhere. "Engines ready Auto Pilot engaged." Adam said as my ship took off and exited the death star like building and we were back in the open area of space. The replay of Anthony's death repeated in my head. He died where he last said goodbye to me. A tear streaked down my face. If only I had started the engines earlier and didn't waste that time he would still be alive. I took off my helmet and threw it across the room. The helmet banged against the wall, but it didn't break. "Message incoming." Adam said, but I ignored it and sat on the step that connected the hallway to the pilot's chamber another tear streaked down my face. Anthony's words echoing in my head. He loved me. I put my head in my hands as more tears streamed down my face. I looked over at the picture of when I left the Federation for the first time to become a bounty hunter. "Adam set course." I said. "Where to lady?" Adam asked. I said the only place that I could think of that could comfort me right now. "Smash Mansion."
Link and Triforce_Fan_98: Sniff

Link and Triforce_Fan_98: No I have something in my eye.
Me: Ok then next time Samus will arrive at Smash Mansion and we will see what happens next chapter! See you next time Please Read and Review.
