Never the Twain Shall Meet
Still down own Mega Man X or Metroid.
Zero stopped at the door to the armory. He had three things on his mind. One was delivering his valuable supply of energy and weapon capsules. Two was getting back to the battle at hand between the new threat of aliens and maverick alliances. And three, the entity that had been following him ever since he had ran up the stairs of the base. He could not see who it was, or what it was either, but his sensors detected the movement and heat signature.
Slowly, he stepped into the room and walked towards the far wall. Before the signature entered the room he dashed behind a compartment and began to circle around the room. His sensors once again, detected the thing follow him into the room. Zero began to circle around and activated his beam saber.
(Samus)
Slowly she crept into the room after Zero. Her arm cannon was ready to fire at a moments notice. However, since she was looking to collect on the bounty and not kill it, she had the cannon's setting down to level 6. At worst he would be burned to an extent. She moved into the center of the room. She looked around only to see three compartments and nothing else. Did he round another corner without her seeing it? No! She saw him come in the room. She was sure of it!
She heard a yell behind her and turned around quickly enough to throw her arms up in defense. Zero had circled around her and quickly slashed with his saber. He made contact on her left arm and hit the cloaking device that was attached to it. Instantly she became visible with the naked eye once more. She jumped back before Zero had time to slash again and fired off a shot. Zero sidestepped to the left in time to watch it singe his shoulder plate. Zero stood in an attack position and Samus raised her arms in defense.
The figure clad in yellow and red armor stood before Zero without faltering. "He must not know my reputation", Zero thought to himself.
"Who are you?" Zero called out. Zero raised his saber to point at the figure and then sneered. "I have no time to deal with you. You must be one of them. I shall dispatch you quickly!"
Masked by her suit, a mechanical voice called out from Samus power suit. "I am the one to bring you to justice, that's who! And you have no choice. You shall fight me!" She leapt forward trying to make contact with a kick to Zero's side. The crimson warrior quickly turned so that the blow landed square on his chest. He didn't even flinch from the blow and quickly counterattacked with a small punch to Samus's stomach. She was sent back a few feet. Zero thought to himself "they must have really underestimated me to send this weak of a fighter to eliminate me. "
It quickly became clear to Samus that she had underestimated him. He was no lackey keyhunter that was for sure. She quickly powered up to her full strength, but only raised her cannon by 2 levels to 8. The then launched herself at Zero, hoping to strike him with her heavily armored shoulder. Zero, who this time underestimated her, caught the blow in the chest once more. He didn't expect the blow to be much more powerful this time however, and was sent back into the wall; crashing with such a force he left an indention.
Zero was angry now, and the gloves were off. He looked at his chest plate and the massive dent that was now in it. He quickly regained his form, activated his beam saber once more, and became the professional hunter that he really was.
"You caught me off guard that time. Make no mistake, it won't happen again!" He launched forward with a force to be reckoned with and his saber clashed with her extremely thick armored cannon. He tried to sweep kick her, but his kick was met by her own. Taking this chance, he then twirled and slung his leg at her other leg that now held all her balance. Samus came tumbling down, and Zero drew back both his legs to his chest and before Samus made contact with the ground, he launched both legs at her and sent her flying into the opposite wall. She hit with such a force that one of her shoulder plates cracked and began to spark. She quickly tore it off her suit and began the offensive once more.
Dust and debris flew everywhere, clouding Zero's sensors and eyes. Suddenly the dust parted as a shot from the arm cannon sped towards him. He raised his saber in defense and the two energies crashed. They dueled for a few seconds and Zero was able to send the energy behind him. The mistake was that in doing so, he turned his back. Samus was over this opportunity in a second and placed her cannon at the base of Zero's spine. She hoped that it wouldn't kill him and fired a shot. Electricity crackled around zero and he screamed out in pain. He spun around and slashed at the face of his attacker. He hit with such a force that the helmet flew off of Samus to reveal her face. His eyes widened at the beauty that was before him as he tried to step forward in vain. Zero's vision began to grow dark and slowly he collapsed to his knees. Finally he fell over completely and passed out. Samus caught her breath and retrieved her helmet. It was slashed nearly in two.
"He was toying with me!" She said aloud. "If he had been fighting to his full potential in the beginning, I would have sliced to pieces." She shrugged and thanked her lucky stars that he was merely toying with her in the beginning. She placed a small patch on his wrist and opened her com- link to the ship. She ordered it to teleport her and her catch aboard. Their atoms were broken down and sent to the ship. What she forgot however, was there was a security camera on the ceiling watching her every move
