The Take Back

Chapter 4: Infiltration

Samus snuck across the court yard. The entrance was to heavily guarded she would need find another way in. She saw a vent she didn't have morph ball so she'd have to do it the old fashion way.

The ventilation shaft was small and cramped. She crawled through the chute looking into rooms through the vents she passed them. She stopped when she saw a room that had many guards around a door.

"That must be it." Samus whispered.

She knocked down the vent cover and shot the lights making the room go dark. She quickly took them down and was about to walk in when she was flung back by an explosion. The armor reflected almost all the damage and barely hurt her. A few bullets hit her but bounced off. Then she noticed one had a sniper. That could pierce her armor.

Her hand went to her belt. She picked a small orb from it and threw it in front of her. The orb lit up a glowing sphere surrounded her.

"Now I'll be protected some what."

"Holo-shield!" The trooper with the rocket launcher said.

The shield instantly cracked when a rocket hit it. The bullets weren't strong enough and just made ripples on the surface when they hit. The sniper however put a few small cracks in it on impact. Samus picked it up and clipped it to her belt. She ran and made short work of them.

She ran into the next room only to find herself surrounded.
