Chapter 2: First Encounter

Samus checked her suit's status before proceeding to the elevator. Everything was functioning properly. As Samus made her way to the elevator she contacted security.

Samus: Clear decks 19 and 20. I will need all the room I can get, and I want no robots engaged on those decks. Security: No problem Samus.

Samus was on the accommodations deck so it would take her a few minutes to get to the reactor's sub sectors. How will I attempt to disable the SA-P1? Maybe a charged shot from the wave beam will do. If not i might have to sever the main power arteries with a charged plasma shot.

I don't want to destroy it. This project is very important no mater how destructive. The elevator notified me that I was nearing sub-sector G. The first place the SA-P1 was spotted.

I prepared my arm cannon for firing. The elevator opened up. All the lights were still on. I was surprised.

Samus: Command deck?

Crew member: Yes Samus.

Kill the lights on reactor sub-section G immediately.

Yes ma'am.

I watched as all the lights in the sector went out. I engaged my night-visor so I could see the SA-P1. It would surely see me to if I'm not careful.

I saw the first set of stairs that lead into the reactor core. I cautiously proceeded with my arm cannon set to wave.

I saw the reactor core.

Samus: Command?

Yes Samus.

I want zero gravity and on lights on decks 19 and 20.

Crew member (Deven): That will take a while--

Now Deven! Ok... Give me 4 minutes.

I activated my magnetic boots at the 3 minute mark.

All the lights went out and then loose objects started to float in mid air.

I moved down more stairs as I was looking for the SA-P1.

I thought maybe if I turned on my thermal visor I might be able to get a lock on it.

After I switched I noticed that the reactor was giving off to much heat for me to see....

Out of the corner of my eye I saw it! The SA-P1 was firing super missiles at the reactor. It was trying to crack the reactor's shielding! This would cause a destabilization of the core! Nothing would be able to reverse the effect.

It was on deck 20. I switched back to night visor and jumped over the railing. I dropped about 500 feet down and used my space jump boots to break my fall.

I landed about 30 feet away from it.

It stopped firing and looked at me. I saw it switch to the ice beam. It charged and shot at me. It hit my arm cannon and froze it. It started to walk towards me with a charged wave shot.

I managed to get one shot to the ice which broke it. Then I switched to plasma and fired. The SA-P1 was hit back but quickly balanced itself.
It walked back towards me. I switched to ice charged and shot the ice spreader at it. I froze it 5 feet away from me. Now it was just an ice statue.

Security, the SA-P1 has been neutralized. Get a recovery team down here now.

Command: Restore lighting and gravity to decks 19 and 20.

The recovery team is on it's way but will they make it in time.

I heard a crack come the ice.

Samus: this is not good. The SA-P1 broke the ice and shot me in the head with 2 missiles. It knocked me 10 feet back and I was motionless. I heard 5 more super missiles hit the reactor shield and then there was an explosion.

When I got to my feet the SA-P1 was gone. I heard an alarm sound. I went to the nearest reactor status console and looked at it. It was hard for me to see through my cracked visor. I read, Red alert Read alert! Omega destabilization of reactor core. Destruction of reactor in 15 min and counting!

I got a call from command: I have the team ready Samus.

Don't bother with the team. The reactor is destabilizing and we need to evacuate all personnel and robots.

What!

Just do it Deven, we only have 15 minutes.

If you see the SA-P1, disable it! Don't destroy it.

Ok Samus.

Security, disable the SA-P1 by any means necessary. We can't let it get off the station!
