Message #10:

To Ridley.

From: Samus Aran.

Subject: This Piece of Junk.

Damn Ridley, this ship is terrible. One parasite falls into the reactor core, and now this place is tearing itself apart. Well I'll make this fast and get out of here.

But I doubt your exposed body will fair well in the coldness of space, much less be able to reach an atmosphere without burning up. You just don't have the technology for that, and you're huge body doesn't have a shot at fitting in an escape pod, even if there were any left.

I guess this is the end Ridley, such a sad way for you to die.
