Chapter 10: The Power of a Scientist

In the void of space a metroid hunter named Samus was looking for anything wrong. 'Boy things did calm down since I defeated the Metroid Prime," she thought to herself.

As she was thinking a distress signal came, but it was hard to figure what it was saying, "He... Ridley…… repeat Rid………" the man in the distress signal said.

"Finally something to do," Samus said as she followed the signal.

After some time Samus found the planet the signal came from, and she exited her ship in her varia suit. "So lets find out were that signal came from," she said she started to head toward a disserted building. After some time traveling she saw something out on a large balcony, and started to rush out to find out what happen. When she got out she saw the man was still alive, "What happen here?" she asked. The man didn't respond. "Are you okay?" she asked again.

Soon the man's arm reached for a lance that was near him and swung it Samus. As the man stand up and said, "Samus Arans we finally meet."

"Who are you?" Samus wondered.

The man just smiled and said, "My name is Luther, a scientist that works for Black Doom for the Black Arms."

"Hmph, I don't care if you who you work for or who you are," Samus said started to fire at Luther, but Luther dodge all the bullets.

Then Luther's hand started to glow red, Laser Beams!" he shouted. Soon a dark symbols were under Samus' feet, but she got off of it before lasers shot from the ground.

"What was that!" Samus said surprised.

"It's called Symbology, magic from symbols, like this. Explosion!" Luther explained.

Another red symbol appeared as a flame ball hit the ground and caused a gigantic explosion where Samus was in range of it. When the smoke cleared out Samus was still standing there, "Nice trick but it seems my shields can withstand it. So try this!" Sumas said as she fired a super missile.

Luther tried to dodge it but the explosion sent Luther near the edge of the balcony "So it seems I under estimated you," Luther said pulling out a remote and pressing it, and soon Ridley appeared, "And with my technology I am able to control this dragon, let alone lure you here!"

"So you sent the distress signal but no matter what I will destroy you," Samus said as she got ready to fight.

"Ridley go!" Luther shouted as his hand glowed again, "Laser beams!" Soon more dark symbols appeared beneath Samus' feet, but Samus avoid it and Ridley swoop down and hit Samus.

"Damn, if I avoid one attack I'll get hit by another," Samus said to herself. Soon Luther used another Symbology and ice formed and Samus got off of it and Ridley swung his tail, but Samus was able to dodge and saw something on the back of Ridley's head.

"There is no way you can win, Ridley finish her!" Luther commanded. Ridley did what he was told and charged at Samus, but Samus jumped over Ridley and shot a super missile behind Ridley's head destroying the thing on its head and knocking it out. "What? How did you…" Luther soon noticed Samus is glowing and soon Samus was in her zero suit. "So let me test you without your suit." Luther charged at Samus with his lance, but Sumas pulled out her gun and flip the barrel up to make a laser sword to hold back Luther's lance.

"Why isn't your lance cut in half?" Samus said pushing Luther away.

"Because the materials that made this lance reflects laser," Luther said as he jumped back. Sumas switched the barrel back and she tried to shoot him but Luther dodge the laser shots and he then charge at her and Sumas changed her gun into a beam sword again and started fighting each other again. Both Samus and Luther started to get tried, "It's really seems that I under estimated you," Luther said.

"Well try this!" Samus said shooting at Luther again and Luther tried to dodge the laser but one hit his shoulder and one hit his leg.

But Luther smiled and said, "It has been along time since I got hurt, but I have Symbology. Healing!" Soon Luther's wounds were healed.

Soon a black eye with six tentacles flew in, "Luther your time is up, come back and finish the vortex cannon with Syndrome," it said.

"Fine, but lets get away from her first," Luther said as he started to run to the edge of the balcony and jump off, "Angel Feathers!" Samus soon looked over the edge and saw a pair of angel wings fly away.

"What the hell did I just fight?" Samus said to herself.


Back in Amity Park Danny was waking up, "Huh, what happened?" Danny soon realize that he was back in his room.

Soon Danny's sister, Jazz, came in to check on him, and realize Danny was awake, "Oh Danny thank God you're alright!" Jazz said hugging Danny.

And soon Danny's parents, Jack and Maddie, came up and saw their son awake, "Oh Danny, I'm happy to see you alright!" Maddie said.

"It's great to see you all okay, but what about Vlad?" Danny said.

"Oh he's okay, he's resting in the guest bedroom," Jack explained.

"That's good,' Danny said relived. Soon he and his family went into the living room; Danny saw Sam, Tucker, Valerie, Dash, Paulina, and Kwan. "What are you guys doing here?"

"What do think, we were worried about you," Sam replied.

"Yeah, we're friends till the end," Tucker said.

Valerie walked up to Danny and sighed, "Danny, I'm sorry about the times I tried to kill you."

"It's okay Val…" Danny said.

"No it's not Danny! I almost killed my own friend, so to make this even; I will help you defeat this Black Doom guy."

"Yeah, that's why we're here, to help you out!" Dash said.

"No matter what happens we'll help you," Paulina said.

"Together we will defeat Black Doom!" Kwan said.

"Thanks guys," Danny said, "But for now I have to see Clockwork, he should know something about Black Doom." Soon Danny went to his ghost from and flew into the lab, where he flew into the ghost portal and he was on his way to Clockwork's lair.
