Metroid fusion prelude chapter 2Metroid fusion prelude chapter 2
Falling down the shaft towards sector 1 greg figured the thing must have been
waiting for
him. Hold on.
Falling head first down the shaft meant he couldn't use the boosters in his
boots to slow
his descent, he tried rectifying that by curling into a ball and twisting
himself in midair, It
worked.
As he slowly came to a stop on the elevator platform in sector one, greg allowed
himself
a sigh of relief. It had been pure luck he had dodged that first missile. pretty
much pure
luck the thing had decided to use missiles instead of the more accurate beam
cannon
on its arm.
As Greg went through the door into sector one he couldn't remember having
unlocked
the level 0 locks though, he had intended to use an access shaft below the main
elevator
to get past the security locks. Even if that thing could have just blasted them
apart like so
much paper it didn't hurt to be cautious.
Argh why am I still calling it a thing I know what I saw, im just not admitting
it because
it didn't make any sense.
He could still remember Zebes, his company of drop marines, had attempted
invading the
caves through a natural tunnel leading inside. twenty minutes later he had
barely
managed to get himself out, He was old even then, although now he was on his way to being completly bald. He had been just about to go in again maybe
sacrificing his life on some suicide attack when he had received word to back
off from
command. He thought this meant that a naval regiment had come to try their luck
but
instead he found it was just one lone bounty hunter being sent in. Like everyone
else
there he had just been waiting for the hunter to die before the real boys went
back towork.
The federation council had a slight detachment from reality that made logical
thinking a
Slight bother for them but this time they were right on the money, he could
barely
suppress his shock as when morning broke and low and behold the hunter had not
only
survived but had wiped out the space pirates. He hadn't seen her there. Some
marines he
knew say they did but he hadn't seen her in person. She had likely seen him.
Not alive of course, after zebes his marines had been dispatched to SR-388, he
woke up
in a lab finding out that they had scrapped his brain cells off a rock and
pieced him back
together from the medical blueprint they had of him at the federation capital.
Death had convinced him maybe the government pension wasn't worth quite as much
as
it seemed.
Being one of the few people left alive in the universe to have actually fought
a Metroid,
he had been able to get himself a fairly comfortable job right above the planet
where an
entire company under his command had been slaughtered.
Shaking his head Greg realized he had to get moving, from sector one his best
chance of getting to the sealed lab was through the ventilation system, it
wouldn't go all the way to the lab but it would get him past some pesky security
locks.
And what then?
Well I could try blowing a hole in the vats containing the metroids, then if he
was lucky the metroids might do the rest for him.
...Hmm, well that is if the person who wiped them out in the first place wasn't
here. He wasn't sure how effective the metroids would be against samus. I think
I just have to hope for the best, besides, if the metroids don't work theirs
not much I can do except blow the station up.
Greg wasn't sure what he was going to do now. The entire breeding area of the
SRX sector was overrun with X, and his plan to use the vents was slightly foiled
by the X currently using them to alter the atmosphere.
Arrghh son of a B!%$#, Allrightfine, now I only have two other options and only
one of them is acceptable. Well three but I don't even want to consider that
one.
I could attempt to fight my way past that samus thing and all the X on this
Station and get to the Metroid lab another way, which I know is impossible
because I cant unlock the security locks if the computer code I left in the
mainframe that prevents the security sensors from detecting me are still
working.
He couldn't know for sure if that measure had been worthit, he had seen zombie
like things on the main deck and here in sector one, but he didn't know if the X
had been using the sensors to track him or if they even understood enough of the
station to do so.
The only major problem I have right now is that I will likely have to find some
way past that thing before I can get back to the main deck and the access shaft
to the power core. Holdon. I don't need to go past it, theres a weak section of
wall in one of the service corridors that if I can get past will take me to
sector three, once there if I can just figure out a way to get past the boiling
lava I should be able to blow the whole station out of the sky.
Unfourtunatly I don't have anyway currently to get past it, the X might be
onlyones who can right now, And its not like they'll blow the place for me.
