Hey people. This is it!(I hope.) I don't own metroid. I only own
Ryan, though if Nintendo wants to use him they have full
permission.(doubtful)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------
Ryan felt pain. Not a pain that would kill him, he knew that much, but pain none the less. Air was rushing around him, howling in his ears. This speed could have only come from Samus's speed boosters. 'I guess absorbing that Omega pirate was a bad idea...' He thought.
Samus suddenly stopped in a cargo storage area. She set Ryan down in the middle of the room, and gave him some breathing room. Ryan didn't look good. Sweat was rolling down is face like a waterfall, and his breathing was anything but steady.
"Ryan! What the heck happened to you?"
Ryan was struggling as it was, but he attempted to speak anyway. "Samus... I.. I drained the third Omega Pir-" He was interrupted by a long run of coughing, but it soon subsided. "Guess it wasn't a good idea for me to absorb that much Phazon..."
"Yeah, it probably wasn't. Your changing again, aren't you."
Ryan was about to speak, but he started to cough again. This time blood flowed from his mouth. He recovered though, and spoke one last time. "Yeah, and I don't think it's a good thing. I don't know if I can keep my sanity with this much Phazon in me... AAAHHHH!" Ryan's body began to swell, his screams of pain drowned out by the sound of pure energy shaking the mines. Suddenly, Ryan's world faded to black...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----------------
Milly knew Samus had told her to stay put, but she couldn't help wanting to see Ryan. 'Ryan... Why did you save me and run? Does this have something to do with being an experiment?' Milly could only guess at the cause of the earth quakes that now surrounded her. "Should I go to the surface? I would probably be safer there... But what about Samus and Ryan? If they get trapped..." That decided things for Milly. She ran for Samus and Ryan, but she had no idea where they were...
------
Samus couldn't believe her eyes. Moments before, one of her best friends had been in pain. Now, something evil had replaced him. Something... Demonic.
"So... You are the one." Ryan spoke. His voice sounded the same, but Samus knew it wasn't Ryan speaking. Had the Phazon driven him insane? Samus didn't really care, she just knew Ryan was still in there, somewhere....
"I don't know who you are, but get out. I want Ryan back, and I know your not him."
The creature stood, and laughed at Samus. "Who's Ryan? He was never here. I have always been... here. I am now the owner, no longer a renter. He... Is gone!"
"What? No. Ryan was never this weak. He would never let anything take over. Especially after he came this far." Samus readied her Ice beam, ready to take any measure to either incapacitate Ryan, or just plain out knock some sense into him.
"Oh, you want to fight me? Amusing. I am more powerful than you will ever know." The creature extended it's wings, but they no longer resembled Ridleys orange and platinum wings. The platinum had turned to a silver- green, and the orange 'skin' had turned into the cold blue of Phazon. His short blond hair had changed. It had turned to black, and grown down past his knees. He had grown past his normal 5'-11", and now stood above 6 feet. His power suit stretched to match his build, but even the Chozo technology was reaching it's limits. His pistols had been 'absorbed' into his hands, and a set of rapier like blades had grown out from the back of his fists. "Well, I certainly can't leave a challenge sitting in the air. Guess I'll just have to kill you. Shall we begin?"
"Sure thing freak. If I win, you get out of Ryan's body."
"HA! You jest. You can't even dream of defeating me! I accept your terms. Have at you!" Ryan lunged at Samus, his claws set to ram into Samus's chest.
Samus dodged this attack, and shot her Ice spreader in Ryan's face. Ryan absorbed the cold blast like it was nothing, and didn't even slow down. He turned toward Samus and unleashed a Wave beam at her stomach. Samus could feel her energy drop, and her visor was full of static for a few seconds. When she could see clearly again, Ryan was nowhere to be found.
"Hey jerk! Get back here!"
"But I am right here." Samus instantly knew she was in trouble. She could feel the heat building up on her back. A charged Plasma Beam shot erupted from both of Ryan's palms, impacting with full force against Samus's armor. Samus was sent rolling, and slammed into a rock wall.
"Ah... Dang that freaking hurt." Samus noticed her energy meter had dropped from its normal 100% mark to just below 60%. "What? After only two hits? Good lord, he's worse than the Mother brain!"
"That pathetic piece of jelly? Don't disgrace me by comparing my power to that slab of meat."
Samus struggled to her feet. The impact had left her dazed and venerable, but now she was ready for combat. While on the floor, Samus had been charging her power beam, and now fired a Super missile at Ryan's face. Ryan tried to dodge, but his wing took the missile full on. It did nothing.
"Whoa. That's not cool."
Ryan grinned and flapped his wings, forcing himself into the air. His hands began to glow, filling with a Plasma Beam and Power Beam charge shot. "It's over Samus. Four more charge shot's and your finished. If you could use a charged OMNI beam shot. Then you could kill me! But I don't think you would want to kill Ryan, now would you?"
"Stupid demon..." Samus said. Ryan grinned, then released the charge shots on her. She tried to speed boost out of the way, but the shots still found their mark. Samus found herself in the wall again. 'Dang it! There is no way I can beat this thing! Wait...' Samus had an idea.
Ryan was laughing his head off at the sight of the almighty Hunter falling before him. He suddenly felt another presence... Something, different. Something that had been important to Ryan... "Milly."
The girl was hiding behind a stack of crates. She had seen Samus get attacked by the creature, but she somehow knew it was Ryan. Ryan was inside that body... Milly mustered all the bravery she had in her, and ran out into the open.
"RYAN! Please! Stop this!" Tears were rolling down her eye's, and it seemed to affect Ryan. "Please, come back to me... I don't want you to leave me here with this Thing you've become!"
That struck the creature deeply. "I.. No! I won't go back! This is me now! Milly! I can almost see you! WHAT? HOW ARE YOU TALKING? My energy far surpasses you will!"
Samus was getting confused. "OK. That's really weird." While Ryan was bickering with himself, Samus powered up her speed boosters and Super jumped into Ryan's mid-section. The two crashed into a power conduit, frying both Ryan and Samus. After a good second of being attached to the conduit, Ryan and Samus fell to the ground.
Moments passed, then Samus stirred. She slowly climbed to her feet. The pain was reeking havoc with her movements. Somehow, the power conduit had charged her suit up to 50% power.
"Guess I'm just lucky..."
Ryan began to move as well. He silently cursed fate, and stood to oppose Samus again. "Heh. Lucky move Samus. But that's the last move you'll ever make." Ryan jumped on Samus, and shoved his claw into her abdomen. She let out a muffled scream of pain as the claws dug into her flesh. Ryan however, was not strong enough to continue his attack, and fell of Samus's shoulders. Samus could hardly breath anymore. Her anger was swelling, and she switched her beam to OMNI. The signature splitting of the cannon completed in seconds, and Samus held it almost point blank to Ryan's chest.
"WAIT!" Milly ran into the middle of the battle field, and grabbed Samus's arm cannon. "Don't kill him! Please!" She was still crying. Samus saw this, and backed away from Ryan's body.
Ryan coughed suddenly. "We're still alive, you know..." The creature grinned again. "AND I WON'T DIE THAT EASILY!" He stood, but suddenly disappeared from view. Samus instinctively knew what he was doing.
"He's going after Spike."
"What?" Milly asked. "Is he going to hurt Spike? And what..."
"I don't know. All I know is that his body absorbed the DNA of every creature he drains."
"Oh... So that's what he meant..."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----------------
Two days had passed. Samus was once again entering the atmosphere of DC-834, but this time had Milly as company instead of Ryan. Samus had wanted Milly to stay behind, but Milly was coming, weather Samus liked it or not.
"OK Milly, once we get down there, you have to stay close to me." Samus said. The two day trip had gone by quickly, and Samus's wound hadn't closed fully. She knew what was riding on this venture, but didn't really care at the moment. She just wanted Ryan back.
"Sure thing, Miss Aran."
"...Milly? Don't ever call me Miss again. It's just Samus."
"Okay."
Adam brought the ship onto the Pirate docking platforms for Samus, and ran down the mission briefing.
"OK Lady, my scans show two tremendous energy sources inside the Pirate base. One appears to be moving toward the other. It's probably Ryan. You currently have only two weapons that can harm Ryan in his current form. Your Super Jump move can knock the wind out of him, however your OMNI beam would do more damage. A charge shot will kill him, but I think he can withstand at least one hit from it. Move as quickly as you can, because if Ryan absorbs Spike's energy, even the OMNI beam might not be able to harm him. Confirm mission objective?"
"No Adam, I think we got all of that. Let's go Milly."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----------------
Ryan was standing before Spike's lair. The Metroids had not recognized him, so he had killed some of them. Inside Ryan's brain, the Phazon warred with the original personality. The Phazon still held it's iron grip however. "Hehehe... muwaHAHAHA!! You can't stop me... Not now!"
"I might not, but Samus still can!"
"That pathetic WOMAN? Shut your mouth. You don't even know your own strength now! Think about it, if we stop this pointless bickering, then we can become even stronger!"
"NO! This is my body! Not the body of some animal! You can't control me like you did the Chozo! I'm stronger than this! I WON'T LET YOU CONTROL ME!"
"You have no say in the matter. Now be quiet and let me absorb more of myself! I shall free your friend Spike! Would you like that?"
"You won't free him! Your going to kill him! GO AWAY!"
"Never. My body! THIS IS MY BODY!"
"I WON'T LET YOU DO THIS! I WON'T! God.. Help me!"
Samus could hear Ryan screaming at himself. Soon, she was right behind the creature.
"Nice to see you again Ryan."
Ryan whirled around, and immediately fired several power beam shots at her. Samus Spaced jumped out of harms way, switched to her OMNI Beam and fired a single shot at Ryan. He took the shot right in his chest, causing him to stumble backward. Milly screamed. Samus gasped. Ryan fell into spikes liar, head first. His wing's trailed behind him, sliding down the slick, slime covered surface. His unconscious form fell at Spike's massive feet.
"Ryan..." Milly whispered. She broke down crying, thinking that he was dead.
"I'm going after him. You stay here."
"But... Isn't he..."
"No. There's no way he's dead." With that, Samus jumped into the pit.
------authors note------
Yeah, this part kinda came from Prime. So sue me.
--------------------------
Samus landed hard in the pit. Ryan was right before Spikes MASSIVE body. Spike was looking at Ryan, trying to decided if she knew him or not.
"Spike! That's Ryan! You know him!" Samus was almost pleading with Spike. Spike, however, didn't know him. Spike didn't like him, either. Spike clamped onto Ryan's limp body and started to drain his energy. "SPIKE! STOP!" Samus lifted her arm cannon, preparing to fire her beam. She was suddenly struck by what her actions would do. If she fired, she would kill Ryan's best friend in the whole world. If she didn't fire, Ryan might die... "What... What should I do?"
As if answering Samus, Spike stopped draining Ryan's energy. Something had changed as Ryan fell from the Metroid's mouth...
--------------
"According to our scans, the Phazon element was almost completely drained from his systems. His weapons are free, and all technological elements have been removed from his system. On a bonus note, most of the mutations caused by the Phazon element have been reversed. The only change remaining is the wing color."
"That's good news doctor. Spike should be glad to hear that."
Ryan woke up with a splitting head ache. He could barely make out that two forms were standing over him. "Where... Where am I?" His body had changed back to it's normal form, no longer the demonic beast the Phazon had created.
"Your home, kid."
It was Samus.
"Samus! Wha? How did you beat the beast? What happened?"
"That can wait kid. Someone other than me and the Doctor here want's to see you. Someone else who cares about you."
"Who...?" Ryan could distinctly hear a door opening. He suddenly felt something damp hit his face. A tear. "Mil... Milly?"
"RYAN!" *glomp!* Ryan screamed in pain as Milly hugged him. He didn't really care about the pain, but he couldn't control his screaming. "Ryan! You finally came back! I..."
"Milly. I wouldn't break a promise. When we were together that night, I promised to come back, don't you remember?"
"Of course silly. Uh... Ryan?"
"Yeah?"
"Will you go out with me?"
"Sure, if you can get off me. It really hurts, you know?"
"Oh!" Milly blushed furiously as she moved off of Ryan's chest. "Hey Ryan, Samus told me about the whole 'wing' thing. I actually think its kind of cool!"
"HUH? You mean you don't think I'm a freak?"
"Hey, in a world where girls can have tails and ears, I don't see why I can't date a Dragon!" She smiled brightly, and gripped Ryan's hand. Ryan laughed through the pain in his chest.
--------------
Samus stared at DC-834. The planet was now home to the Metroid race. Spike had established herself as the very first queen, and made sure that the other Metroids would only attack the creatures of the planet. Samus was glad for everyone involved in the incident. Everyone had a happy ending. Ryan had Milly, Milly had Ryan, Spike and the Metroids had a homeworld again, and Samus had a huge reward for beating back the Space Pirates AGAIN. Samus didn't really like the idea of having a partner, but she thought she could live with Ryan working with her. "I wonder what the universe holds next for me..." she mused. 'And Ryan for that matter...' Samus sweat dropped, thinking of herself being a 'Grand parent'.
THE END...?
--------------*omake*
Greg was walking down the halls of his new post. For actually surviving an encounter with Samus, he had been promoted to lieutenant. This didn't satisfy him, however. HE WANTED SAMUS! Suddenly, as if his prayers had been answered, he found Samus staring out at space. He froze, got a bloody nose, then fell over from the blood loss.
------
So? What now? I've completed my first story. I think I'll go and have a root beer. Need.... Sleep....
(PLEASE REVIEW! Thanks for reading!!! also tell me if you people want a sequel...{[ possibly just for palidin2007's sake. ^_^ ]})
