BGM: Hades' Infernal Theme (Kid Icarus: Uprising)
"Time! Space! Reality! It's more than just a boring ol' linear path! It's a prism of boundless entertainment! A single choice can branch out into infinite realities and infinite amusement from yours truly! Alternate universes created from the ones that we know and love! I am Lord Hades, your handsome guide to these wonderful and boundless fun of opportunities! Follow me, if you dare… and bask in the neverending torturous question of:"
SUPER RWBY: WHAT IF?
"What If!"
End BGM
"Well, that was pretty fun! I was rooting for Junko this whole time! …What? Hello, god of the Underworld? I'm an agent of chaos, I like to keep you guys on your toes. Hahahaha!"
He looked through the universes again. "Let's see… what should we tackle next… hmm, this one looks pretty good, mmm… oooh, this one we could do at a different time, let's see… hmm, nah, too boring…"
Hades found a universe in question. "Oh? Oooooh, this looks like it'll be a wild time!" He grinned as he looked to the screen. "We all know the amusingly tragic tale of Blake losing her mind in the BSL Station. Amusing for me, of course! Possibly amusing for the SA-X. Anywho, the X-Parasites made her lose her mind and made her go absolutely crazy! Just the slightest touch of an X-Parasite would kill her!"
He smirked. "But what if… in this particular universe, an X-Parasite doesn't kill Blake immediately? And instead… forms an intoxicating friendship with Blake?"
What If… An X-Parasite Befriends Blake?
"I bet you Metroid nerds are frothing at the mouth over how wrong this sounds. And I, for one, welcome the sweet music to my ears!"
A loud noise was heard during the massive gunfire and Blake and Nina destroying each other. They turned to see part of the ground starting to grow before part of it exploded, and then suddenly, the SA-X Screw Attacked out of the hole.
BGM: Dark Samus Approaches (Metroid Prime 2: Echoes)
"Oh dear…" Shou paled.
"Oh boy…" A Zebesian said, currently in a headlock with Samus while Rosalina telekinetically held a few Zebesians.
"That figures." Samus rolled her eyes as the SA-X turned its head to glare at everyone… before turning to the Zeta Metroid and with a clench of its fist, it fired a Super Missile at it.
However, Nina grabbed the Super Missile with her hands and tossed it behind her, where it exploded into a Larval Metroid container, destroying the glass as the Metroids burst out.
End BGM
"...Oh, that's not good." A Zebesian whimpered.
"Sixty seconds to isolation lockdown."
BGM: Evacuate Immediately! (AM2R)
"Isolation lockdown?!" Blake said in shock as the Larval Metroids suddenly circled around Samus, all of them chirping.
"What…?" Samus wondered why none of the Metroids were hurting her, before she realized it. Wiat, I'm part Metroid now. They sense I'm one of them. She smirked and aimed her Arm Cannon at the SA-X. "Alright, attack that thing right there!" She ordered as the Metroids hissed and charged at the SA-X.
Nina, meanwhile, did not listen to Samus, but was more than happy to knock down the SA-X and lunged at the X-Parasite. The SA-X proceeded to shoot at the Metroids where Samus charged up the Wave Beam, aimed and fired at the SA-X, knocking it back as the Metroids swarmed the X-Parasite.
However, the SA-X rolled up into a ball and laid many bombs to get the Metroids off of it, but then Nina impaled it with her tail. The SA-X backhanded the Metroid away and fell on one knee… feeling itself started to melt away.
"What's wrong? Feeling a little weakened?" Samus taunted.
The SA-X got up, glancing over to Blake and then bolted for her. "Huh?!" Blake immediately shot at the X-Parasite where it grabbed a hold of her. "Nnngh!" She grunted, throwing her out of the lab and jumping in after her.
"BLAKE!" Samus yelled as the SA-X disappeared into the darkness with Blake in hand.
End BGM
"Fifteen seconds to isolation lockdown."
"Incredible… I've never seen an X-Parasite kidnap someone befo-" Samus shot Shou in the face with a charged up Plasma Beam. "Argh!"
"Shut the fuck up." She turned to her team. "Alright team, let's go get Blake out of that mess!" They went after her right as the lab detached from the BSL station, exploding a few seconds later.
"You shouldn't have done that… All of you may have to pay a price for that soon."
"Huh?" Samus turned to ROB. "...Adam, this isn't the time for jokes. We need to find Blake!"
"This is no joke. She paid for it, and you may as well pay the same price."
"What are you talking about?" Samus glared.
With Blake…
The SA-X slammed Blake into a wall. "Rrrgh! Never thought of you as the kidnapping type!" Blake said. "I'm getting real fucking sick of you too!" She kicked the SA-X back as she aimed Gambol Shroud at it and fired at it, the SA-X blocked with its hand as it melee countered her but she used her semblance, countering it by kicking it to the side.
The SA-X turned around, aiming the Arm Cannon at her and fired, but Blake weaved her head and then counter shot it with her Wave Beam, shooting it enough times for the SA-X to go down on its knees, already weakened from the Metroids and Samus.
The armor melted away, leaving behind an X-Parasite Samus in front of her. "What's wrong? You look a little weakened!" Blake taunted, proceeding to keep shooting at it, only for the X-Parasite to weave its way around the shots and then shoved Blake into a wall. "Rrrgh!" She grunted as she glared at the X-Parasite… before her body started to absorb the parasite.
Blake gasped. "No… NO! Not like this! NOOOOOO!" She screamed as it went inside of her completely.
"That's right, folks! I did say an X-Parasite would befriend Blake! …But I didn't say what kind~!"
Inside of Blake, the SA-X looked around in Blake's memories, seeing her having an enjoyable time with her family and teammates, while also facing hardships.
"This is… living life for this individual? Hardships, bonding with others, understanding others… if she wanted to bond with these… humans, then… could she do the same… with me?"
The SA-X closed its eyes and slowly melted away inside of Blake.
Outside, Blake was already sitting on the ground in a fetal position. "I'm gonna die… I'm gonna die… I'm gonna die I'm gonna die I'm gonna die I'm gonna die…"
"Interesting…"
Blake looked up to see Ridley landing on the ground. "Samus, I can understand why it didn't affect her because she's part Metroid… but you… you're a Faunus and you absorbed that X-Parasite. Normally, almost everyone dies when an X-Parasite touches them. Yet, you live."
"I'm… not dead?"
"As from where I'm standing, you're not dead. Yet."
"What do you-"
"HEY!"
A Wave Beam struck Ridley, followed by a Thunderbolt, making him roar and backed up as Samus aimed her arm cannon at her. "Step away from the cat." She growled. "It's bad enough that there's ten SA-X's running amok in this station, and now you're attacking Blake?"
"There's how many?!" Blake whimpered.
"Relax, I wasn't doing anything to her! Besides, what intrigued me was that Blake had absorbed the X-Parasite and lo and behold, she lives."
"She absorbed the SA-X?" Samus asked before scoffing. "Never knew you were a comedian."
"N-No… it's true." Blake said as she slowly rose. "The SA-X kidnapped me and while I fought it off, its armor melted off and then… I… absorbed the X-Parasite."
"Blake, are you actually playing along with this?" Rosalina asked. "This is Ridley we're talking about."
"If I'm joking, then where's the X-Parasite?" Ridley pointed out as it slowly dawned on everyone else.
"...Oh no." Rosalina whispered as Samus immediately did a scan on Blake.
"Blake Belladonna
Species: Faunus
Gender: Female
Status: Infected with X-Parasite, yet alive"
"You gotta be… he's telling the truth alright…" Samus said as she dismissed her armor and put her hands on Blake. "Blake… do you feel any different?"
"Aside from being violated? Uh… I feel fine, except for maybe… I dunno, horrified that there are ten SA-X? How is that even-"
"Why don't you ask him?" Samus turned to Adam. "In case if you're wondering, he took control of ROB and told us that the X-Parasite is known to reproduce asexually… so it makes sense that the SA-X would do the same."
Rosalina instinctively went over to Blake, gently feeling her forehead. "...You seem fine. You sure you feel fine?"
"Yeah, kinda… not sure how I'm alive but… I guess I'm feeling perky."
"Great. So… I propose that we form a temporary alliance." Ridley said.
"Oho! Is the big bad dragon afraid of an X-Parasite?" Samus mocked.
"Considering there's eleven of you right now… I'd rather deal with one!" Ridley grumbled.
"You're afraid."
"Am not!"
"Soooo… how are we going to deal with Adam taking full control of ROB's body?" Blake asked.
"I'll think of something." Samus said. "I'm… honestly surprised you're not screaming in terror over ten SA-X."
"Honestly… I feel like I should be." Blake nodded. "But… honestly? I feel confident that we can kick their asses to the curb. So let's go."
"Pika Pika…" Pikachu said in concern as they turned around… only for a hatch to close.
"Adam… you better open this door." Samus said.
"I'm afraid I can't do that, Samus."
"...Alright. Then you leave me with no other choice."
Later, after Adam and ROB got back to their senses…
"Amazing. Bring back the old Adam just by saying his name." Blake said as they were in an elevator.
"Boop boop bop?" ROB wondered.
"I dunno, she seems a little more… confident." Samus said.
"It continues to intrigue me." Ridley smirked.
"I don't get it, what's going on?" Adam wondered.
"Apparently, Blake absorbed an X-Parasite. She's infected, yet she's… alive." Samus said.
"What? That doesn't make sense… ROB, let's do a scan on her."
"Boop." ROB nodded as they scanned her.
"...Yup, she's infected with an X-Parasite, alright. Yet nothing has changed. Odd…"
"My heart is still beating too. So thankfully, I'm not a zombie. I don't feel anything different either."
"Mmm, maybe when we head home, we'll have someone take a hard look at ya, just in case." Samus said as they walked into a large room.
"This place feels empty." Ridley said.
"Eh, well, it's nothing too fancy. You said the Operations Room is in here?" Samus asked.
"Yes. It's one story higher from where you got your missiles back."
"How about that." Samus chuckled, then they heard an explosion behind them as they turned to see the SA-X approaching them, and then they were quickly surrounded by the rest of them.
"Looks like we're gonna have a wild ride on our hands!" Ridley said as they got ready to fight, though Blake stared at the X-Parasites and approached them calmly.
BGM: Environmental Mystery (Metroid Fusion)
"Blake… what are you doing?" Samus asked.
"You don't have to fight." Blake said. "Please, lower your arm cannons down. We can be one again. We can be whole."
The X-Parasites looked at each other before shrugging, and then walked over to Blake… all except for the main one who looked absolutely confused on what was going on.
"They're… listening to her?" Rosalina asked.
"I'm more and more intrigued by this… first she absorbs an SA-X and now they're listening to her!" Ridley mused as Blake touched each of the SA-Xs, absorbing them and taking a deep breath.
The main SA-X looked at her in surprise, aiming the arm cannon at her where Blake aimed Gambol Shroud at it. "We don't have to fight. Just lower your weapon, please."
The SA-X clenched its fist before turning around and running off. "Hey! Where are you going, you coward! Afraid of being absorbed by a Faunus!" Ridley laughed.
"...What the hell was that?" Samus asked as she scanned Blake again, but seeing nothing had changed, which continued to confuse her. "I… what even…"
Blake turned around, smiling. "So… shall we blow this place up?"
"I… suppose so." Samus said, rubbing her head.
"Hmm, this is very perplexing." Rosalina said.
"And very amusing." Ridley chuckled as they went to the Operations Room.
"Here it is. As soon as we activate it, we need to get the hell out of dodge."
"Right." Samus nodded, walking over to the controls as she started typing it in.
"I just hope my men got out of there." Ridley mumbled.
"Eh, the less men you have, the better."
"Of course you would say that."
"Propulsion sequence activated. Destination: Planet SR-388. Ten minutes until impact."
BGM: Evacuate Immediately! (Metroid: Other M)
"Ack!" Blake yelped, covering her ears from the loud alarms that were blaring.
"Well, that's our cue. Let's move!" Samus exclaimed as they started to leave, quickly hopping down as they ran/flew through the hatches as they hopped into an elevator, making their way down. Samus tapped her foot impatiently while Blake was covering her ears from the loud alarms. Rosalina felt unsure, but also still a bit concerned over Blake.
Once the elevator stopped, they quickly ran off as they hopped down through the corridors, and then ran ahead as they hopped down another corridor.
"We're almost at the docking bay!" Adam said as they kept going, dodging through debris as they opened up a hatch and made it into the docking bay, but to their surprise, both Ridley's and Samus's ship were nowhere to be found.
"What the?! Where's my ship?! What are those fools doing!"
"Where is it?" Blake wondered.
"Hello there…"
End BGM
"Nine minutes until impact."
They turned to see Shou Tucker approaching them, his face a bit charred and deformed as Nina was behind him as an Omega Metroid. "You…" Blake growled.
"Hmhmhm… Master Ridley, I thank you for bringing SPBRR to me… now I can have them witness Nina's raw power!"
"Shou, you fool!" Ridley yelled. "I told you to get rid of that damn thing! I told you that simple minded creatures like that Metroid will have to be destroyed if they go malicious!"
"You don't understand, Master Ridley! Nina will unleash her raw power on SPBRR… and you too will see that even malicious creatures can be tamed against this Calasmos! I will make you proud!"
"DAMMIT, SHOU! If you're not going to kill that damn thing, then I will!"
"You… would betray me, Master Ridley?"
"I gave you an order to get rid of it, and you disobeyed me. As far as I'm concerned, you betrayed me. All because of some insane delusion that you would control this Malicious creature!" Ridley snarled, flashing his claws.
Shou gave them all a glare before laughing maniacally. "HAHAHAHAHA! Very well! I will have Nina destroy all of you… even if it means destroying you, Master Ridley! With Nina by my side, I will show the galaxy that we will be unstoppable!"
"Oh, give it a rest already!" Rosalina said.
"Eight minutes until impact."
"So be it! Nina! Destroy SPBRR and Master Ridley!" Shou ordered, but the Omega Metroid didn't do anything as he turned to her. "Nina? What's wrong, girl?" He asked as the Omega Metroid reached for her head and started roaring… before her eyes turned green and in a flash, she impaled through Shou's gut.
BGM: Omega Metroid (Metroid: Samus Returns)
The Apex Predator - Nina the Omega Metroid
"NNNGH!" He grunted, coughing out blood as he looked at Nina with a hint of betrayal. "Nina… why…?" He asked as Nina viciously bit down on Shou's head and tore it right off, eating his head whole before splitting his body in two as blood splattered everywhere.
"Ah, damn fool… he didn't listen." Ridley said.
"...I've seen worse." Samus said.
"Ouch." Adam said as Rosalina felt her stomach turn and ROB attempted to block out Pikachu's eyes, all the while Blake just felt… excitement when the Omega Metroid roared.
She immediately brought out Gambol Shroud and then in a blink of an eye, she lunged directly at the Metroid. "Blake, wait!" Samus exclaimed as Blake leaped into the air where she suddenly started glowing.
"Oh?" Ridley curiously looked on with intrigue as Blake slashed down as Nina blocked with her arm, but then Blake looked entirely different.
End BGM
BGM: Battle! (Future Diary)
They would see a cat tail poking out of Blake's butt while also her hands had fur on them with claws protruding out of her fingers as her eyes looked more catlike. Her zero suit was now white and green as she had fangs in her mouth, while also sporting a happy-go-lucky grin on her face.
"Hi-yah!" She cried, flip kicking the Omega Metroid in the chin and then landing on her feet. "Mind if I step in for a moment~?" Her voice was at a higher pitch.
"Blake…?" Rosalina looked on in awe.
"Just call me X-Blake!" She smiled at them in a friendly demeanor before turning around.
"Wait, what the hell is going on? Who are you?!"
I'm the X-Parasite living inside of you, Blake. Right now, we gotta take this Metroid out!
"...Okaaaay… I thought you hated Metroids."
Oh, we do, but if it means protecting our friends, I'll do whatever it takes to make sure they live.
"Our?"
Yeah, silly! We're two in one now!
"...Uh…"
I'll explain later. We got a Metroid to knock out!
"Do you know what's going on?" Rosalina asked.
"I don't…" Samus said, aiming her arm cannon at the Omega Metroid. "But we ought to-" Ridley put his tail out in front of Samus. "Ridley! What are you-"
"I want to see how this plays out. After all… she's an X-Parasite now."
Nina growled, unleashing a breath of ice at X-Blake but she rolled out of the way and fired Plasma Beams into his chest as she lunged ahead at the Metroid. Nina snarled and backhanded X-Blake, where she activated Blake's semblance, but instead of disappearing, she split in two when she got hit.
"Augh! Why are there two of me?!"
The two X-Parasites both flanked her and then slashed at her with their claws before they jumped back and formed as one again. It's my semblance that I copied from you. Pretty cool, huh?
"That's… I don't think that's how my semblance works!"
Oookay, so maaaybe I took some creative liberties…
"WATCH OUT!"
"Huh?" X-Blake turned around, only to get backhanded by Nina. "Rrrgh!" She grunted as she flipped around and planted her claws on the ground, scraping away before she got back up and fired at her.
"You got anything else?"
As a matter of fact… ya know how the SA-X took control of Samus's abilities?
"Yeah…? Wait, you don't mean…!"
X-Blake grinned, her arm morphing into an arm cannon. "Hehehe~" She charged up and fired a barrage of Super Missiles and fired a charged Wave Beam at Nina. The Omega Metroid roared as she breathed a hallucinogenic mist.
X-Blake ran into the mist and looked around. "Where are you…" She looked around, her cat ears twitching as she shifted her eyes and quickly rolled out of the way to avoid a fireball.
As they were battling, the SA-X walked in and saw what was going on. It walked forward to stand side by side with Samus. "Well, look who showed up." Ridley said.
"I don't understand… that's a hallucinogenic mist and she's… not affected by it?" Samus wondered and then turned to the SA-X.
The SA-X watched on and clenched its fist, turning to Samus and extended its arm out to her. "...You want to help?" Samus asked as it nodded. "Alright then." She said as she took the hand and absorbed it.

"Mmmph!" X-Blake was knocked back by a powerful laser as Nina grabbed a hold of X-Blake and roared at her as X-Blake hissed back at her.
"Get away from them, YOU BITCH!" Samus yelled, firing an Ice Beam at her arms and then ran ahead and kicked the arms, shattering them instantly and freeing X-Blake, then she kicked the Omega Metroid away and then shot the Zero Laser into her, evaporating her instantly.
End BGM
"Nyeeeeh!" X-Blake pulled her eye socket down and stuck her tongue out.
"Okay… that was… honestly interesting." Samus said. "X-Blake, was it?"
"Yup!"
"You have my thanks, I suppose."
"No prob! …Now why do I feel like we're forgetting something?"
"Two minutes until impact."
"Oh! Right, the station!" X-Blake blushed as the ships returned as they got into their respective ships and flew off.
"Well done, Blake. You becoming an X-Parasite has intrigued me. I look forward to our next encounter. Until then, SPBRR!" Ridley jumped into hyperspace.
"Alright… before we head back home…" Samus turned to her, aiming her arm cannon at X-Blake. "What the hell are you?"
"Oh right, I need to explain myself." X-Blake chuckled. "You see, I'm… an X-Parasite, as you know. In fact, I'm the X-Parasite that was reproduced asexually from the prime SA-X."
"So you were originally one of the SA-X clones."
"Yes… in fact, when I went inside of Blake, I… I was originally going to kill her, but… when I looked into her memories, I saw many hardships she's been in, but also having friends and family. It… honestly touched me. I didn't think it would have, but… it did. It made me wonder if I, too, could live a life such as that. And so… I shed my SA-X and started to morph into Blake. I was gonna call myself Blake-X, but X-Blake rolls off the tongue better."
"I see…"
"As I was starting to become my own person, I gave Blake that confidence boost she needed and thought she could absorb the other SA-Xs to show that she's not afraid of them anymore. I personally apologize for what my kind had done, we put you all through so much hell…"
"Oh, that's an understatement…"
"To show that I do not mean any harm…" X-Blake reached down and held Pikachu.
Samus gasped, charging up her arm cannon.
"Wait!" Rosalina stopped her. "Look."
"It's true that I infect those that I touch, but to those I consider a friend… I don't infect them." X-Blake smiled.
"Pika…" Pikachu looked on hesitantly and almost electrocuted X-Blake, but the more she scratched him behind the ears, the more he warmed up to her and nuzzled against her. "Chaaaa!"
"Aww…" Rosalina smiled.
"Mmm…" Samus folded her arms.
"Samus, I deeply apologize for what me and my kind have done."
"I… suppose I can let this slide, but… what about-"
"Blake? Oh, don't worry about her! She can take over!" She said and then let Blake took over.
"Whoa…!" Her head spun a bit. "Ugh… is this how Xena feels?"
"...Well, I guess that will do. Let's head home." Samus said, jumping into hyperspace right as SR-388 exploded behind them.
Back on Remnant…
The ship, along with the Strike Force who joined alongside them in hyperspace, landed on the ground as SPBRR walked out. "Hey guys!" Ruby waved.
"...Samus? Why do you look a bit on edge?" Yang asked. "The X-Parasites are gone now, right?"
"Well… you'd think." Samus said as Blake and Weiss hugged each other.
"Your face… you-"
"It's fine. I could be a whole lot worse." Blake smiled.
"So… what exactly do you mean by "you'd think"?" Summer asked.
"Well… how do I put this? There's an X-Parasite among us."
"Uh… what do you mean?" Weiss asked.
Blake sighed. "Well… truth be told, I'm an X-Parasite." She said as she let X-Blake take over.
"Heya~!"
"WHOA!" Yang yelled.
"Don't worry, I'm on your side!" X-Blake smiled.
"...So… our daughter has been infected with an X-Parasite but… she's not dead?" Kali wondered.
"It's complicated." Samus sighed.
"Yup yup! We're two in one!"
"...Not sure how I feel about that." Xena said.
"Eh, I'm sure it's nothing…"
"I think we need to have get Blake looked at, just in case." Yang said.
Later, at the Mushroom Kingdom hospital…
"Oh my…" Mikan said as she was taking a look in a medical lab before coming back with the results. "So uh… based on what we've examined, we've reached an… interesting conclusion."
"What is it?" Summer asked.
"Well… it's true. Blake does indeed have an X-Parasite within her and has formed a bond within her. With that, we can't perform surgery on her to get it out of her."
"Why not?" Samus asked.
"Because, as I said, it's bonded within her. If we take the X-Parasite out of her, it will kill her instantly."
Pikachu's ears flattened as he had a worried look on his face. "Pika Pi…"
Samus growled at this information. "Great, one of the biggest dangers in this universe is still among us, and we can't destroy it without killing the one person metaphorically and literally the most affected by it!"
X-Blake took over as she had an offended expression on her face. "Ya know, despite being an X-Parasite and not noticeable at first glance, I can still hear you!"
"Mmmph…" Samus grumbled.
"Also, this is ironic coming from somebody who's part Metroid now, as they're considered to be dangerous creatures in the galaxy too." X-Blake shot back. "So honestly, we're both pretty dangerous and threatening, are we not?"
"I… I…" Samus growled.
"Ah great… so our teammate is an X-Parasite now. That's lovely." Yang said.
"On the plus side, as I had said to my friends, I don't infect those who I consider my friend… and if you're friends with Blake, that means you're my friends too!"
"Whoa whoa whoa, hold up now!" Weiss said as she glared at the X-Parasite. "If you honestly think I'm going to be friends with some thing that infected my best friend, then you-... you…" She stared at X-Blake who was giving her a friendly smile. "You… have the most infectious smile that I can't stay mad about it…" She sighed.
"Yay!" X-Blake hugged her.
"Welp, I guess this will do!" Ruby grinned. "We have a Faunus/X-Parasite hybrid now!"
"For better or for worse…" Samus grumbled.
"I'm sure it will be fine, Samus." Rosalina said.
"I sure hope it does."
Back at Blake's home…
Blake looked into the mirror in her own bathroom. "So… what stopped you from killing me?"
"Oh, it's like I said to Samus. Seeing your memories made me think differently… and, honestly, it made me want to be a different person.
"So do you always go for the brain?"
"Not really! We X-Parasites tend to go to any vital organ and make them shut down in an instant. Not sure why we didn't kill Samus right away…"
"That's lovely…"
"But anyway, I wanted to know what it's like to live as something else aside from being an X-Parasite, so that's why I didn't kill you right away."
"I see."
"Plus, I was wondering if it'd be okay if you could be my friend too."
"Wait… what?"
"Yeah, would it be alright? If… if that's okay with you, I'm not forcing you or anything!"
Blake chuckled, closing her eyes. "Well, I already have a parasite inside of me, so… why not?"
"Awww, man… yeah, I know I'm a parasite, but that hurts."
"Oh… sorry."
"It's okay."
"You know, we probably ought to come up with a name for you. Yeah, X-Blake sounds good but what if it we had something that… rolls off the tongue better?"
"Okay, I'm listening!"
"Mmm… okay… how about… Brittney?"
"Nah."
"Sarah?"
"Eh…"
"Uh… Yoshiko."
"Ew, no!"
"Ah, I got it! How about… Sahlia?"
"Sahlia… Sahlia… ooooh, I love that! Alright, from now on, I'm Sahlia~!"
Blake chuckled. "I had a feeling you'd like it."
"By the way, mind if I take over? I wanna explore this… Kingdom of Mushrooms!"
"Sure, knock yourself out."
"WOO! Awesome! Oh wait, but first… take a closer look at the mirror."
"Okay…?"
"See those scars on your face?"
"The ones that Ridley gave me? I remember." She said as her scars suddenly faded away. "Huh?!" She exclaimed in surprise.
"Now take a look at that burn scar on our back."
Blake took off her shirt and looked behind her, noticing the burn scar fading away. "...Holy shit."
"Mhm! Whenever you get injured, I can easily repair it! We X-Parasites take pride in healing our hosts."
"Interesting."
"Not only that, but those Penguin Suits that you use for breathing underwater? Say goodbye to those, because we can breathe underwater just fine!"
"No way, really?"
"Mhm!"
"Sahlia, you're awesome."
"Aw, thanks Blakey!"
"Blakey?" Blake snickered as Sahlia took over.
"Alright, let's explore this Kingdom of Mushrooms!" She said, running down the stairs and heading outside.
BGM: Laughter and Merriment (Kingdom Hearts II)
"Oh my goodness! What is this?" Sahlia wondered as she looked at a cafe.
"Oh, that's a cafe… wait, hang on, let me take over a second." Blake said as she took over and walked into the cafe, where a few minutes later, she came out and sat down at a table where Sahlia took over again.
"What is this thing…?"
"It's cake. Try it!"
Sahlia picked up a piece of it with her hand.
"With a fork!"
"Oh… that pointy thing? That explains it…" Sahla chuckled, proceeding to use the fork with her other hand and stabbed the piece of cake that she was holding and happily put it in her mouth. She gasped. "Blakey… what is this flavor?"
"Chocolate."
"Oh my X-Parasite! This is wonderful!" She grinned, her eyes sparkling as she continued eating it, as some customers looked at her strangely, wondering why she picked it up with her hand only to stab it with a fork.
"Is… Blake acting a little weird to you?" A Toad asked.
"A little? I'm sure she's letting the cat side of hers take over… maybe." Another responded.
"Mmm, that was delicious!" Sahlia smiled, licking her hand and then looked at the cup of coffee that they brought with them as she took a sip. "Gah! Thath's hoth…"
"Hopeless…" Blake let out an amused chuckle as Sahlia continued to drink it. Once she finished, she walked off as she kept touching her tongue that was currently ruined by drinking a hot coffee, but she looked both ways and grabbed an unsuspecting Biddybud and absorbed it, her tongue back to normal.
"Ah, much better~!"
"...Is that what Biddybud tastes like? Eugh… I think I'll stick with fish."
"You want fish? Alright, we'll go fishing~!" Sahlia skipped away, which was enough to bewilder a group of Koopas.
"Is she… skipping?"
"That's… highly unlike her."
Sahlia dove into a stream and looked around, seeing a few Cheep Cheeps going by. "Oooh!"
"Oh wow, you're right. We can breathe underwater now!"
"Told ya~" Sahlia giggled as she swam around and grabbed a hold of a Cheep Cheep, proceeding to absorb the Cheep Cheep into her.
"Try sinking your teeth into one."
"Oh! I didn't think of that." Sahlia snickered as she found herself a Deep Cheep and bit down, causing it to yelp and tried to get away, but it was soon devoured by her. "Aaaah… that was good~!" She smiled and got out of the stream, shaking the water out.
A few hours of inquisitive exploring later…
"So let me get this straight." Sun said. "You spent the entire time exploring the Mushroom Kingdom and you… absorbed a Biddy Bud to restore your burnt tongue from a hot coffee, swam around the stream and devoured a few Cheep Cheeps, went into the Shy Guy Buffet and ate everything to the point they had to close down for a few days to restock everything, which includes their back up supplies, went into the Mushroom Fields and absorbed a Fire Flower and accidentally caused a forest fire-"
Some Fire Trucks drove past them, sirens blaring as they went off toward the Mushroom Fields.
"-Burning several Grimm in the process, went to the grocery store and found a lobster tank, which you got hungry again so you cut the power and turned the sprinkler system on, making everyone evacuate so you could jump into the tank and eat all the lobster?"
"Pretty much." Blake nodded.
"And now you're here with me, enjoying some tea."
"Mhm."
Sun burst out laughing. "Oh man, this X-Parasite of yours is a riot! I love her!"
"Awww, he likes me!"
"Well, it's never a dull moment now." Blake chuckled.
"So, considering you're part X-Parasite now… do you have anything cool?"
Blake smiled, immediately summoning an arm cannon. "Well, we did absorb the SA-X so we have their abilities that Samus has." She dismissed the arm cannon and then conjured up fire. "We also absorbed the Fire Flower, so naturally, we have pyrokinesis."
Sahlia took over. "Which we… accidentally used to burn down the forest. In my defense, those Grimm spooked me." She sheepishly said, poking her fingers awkwardly.
Sun chuckled. "Well, I'm sure it'll be fine. Hey, you wanna go to the arcade after this?"
"I'm still exploring this Kingdom of Mushrooms, so maybe later. But don't worry, Blakey and I would be happy to play this ar-ca-day with you."
"Ar-ca-day?"
Sun smiled. "Sounds like a plan."
"Later, Sunny!" Sahlia walked off as Sun waved goodbye to her.
"Heh… I got a hell of a girlfriend."
"So, how come we didn't show off that we technically have the power of a lobster now?"
"Eh…" Sahlia morphed her hand into a lobster claw. "Not as cool as uh… pyrokinesis, as you said."
"That's fair. Though we do have lobster armor now."
As she said that, red lobster armor wrapped around Sahlia. "Yeah, it's pretty nice but… feels a bit restrictive… Personally, I prefer the lobster claws." She said, dismissing the armor and looking at her lobster claws.

As they continued to walk, they heard the sound of a cry coming from an unburnt forest. "Hmm?" Sahlia wondered as she curiously followed the sound of it, all the while Aqua walked nearby.
"Hmm? Was that Blake?" She wondered.
They continued to walk through the forest, Sahlia curiously following the sound until they came to a nest. Blake immediately taking over as she walked into the nest and found a baby Nargacuga, shivering in the cold.
"Oh, you poor thing…"
"...Can we eat it?"
"No. Not this one."
"Aww. Okay!"
"Where's your mother, little one?" Blake asked gently. The Nargacuga responded by letting out some whines. "Oh… you're all by yourself." She knelt down and opened her arms to it. The Nargacuga jumping into her arms and nuzzled against her. "Shhh, it's okay… we're here for you."
She got out of the nest. "Come on, let's get you home where it's warmer."
"And where do you think you're going?"
Blake's eyes widened and turned around. "Adam! What are you doing here?"
"I heard some wailing and I had thought I heard the sound of a baby Nargacuga. Turns out you were kidnapping it."
"We didn't kidnap it! It was freezing in the cold and its mother didn't come back!"
"We?" Adam raised an eyebrow before shrugging it off. "That would explain a few things. Looks like the Nargacuga I fought earlier was its mother."
"You killed this little one's mother?!"
Deep inside, Sahlia was burning up in anger. She had recalled seeing the memories of Adam, especially when they were confronted by him and Seryu in the Crown Tundra. It was enough to almost take over.
"It got in my way. I silenced it."
"YOU SILENCED THIS THING'S MOTHER?!"
Sahlia took over right as the clouds broke apart and shined the moon directly on her. "What gives you the right to silence things to your own amusement?"
"Hmm? Your voice went up a pitch."
"Who cares about that! You're the reason why people are afraid of Faunus when people ought to be one with Faunus!"
"Look at you, preaching that to me when you were the same way as I was."
"We'll never be like you." Sahlia glared.
"Hand over that Nargacuga."
Sahlia growled, putting the Nargacuga back into the nest. "Over our dead bodies."
BGM: Shaded Truths (Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep)
Adam flashed his claw. "So be it." He said as he lunged directly at her.
Blakey!
"Right!"
Sahlia immediately called upon the lobster armor as her hands turned into lobster claws and countered Adam's weapon.
"Huh?" Adam wondered as Sahlia kicked him aside and threw fireballs at him where he blocked with his claw. "Those are some fancy moves you got… now that I think about it, you have a tail and your eyes are more feline. Blake, did you take something that resulted you to become more animal-like?"
"Oh, I'm not Blake. I'm Sahlia."
Adam rolled his eyes. "And I'm Sienna Kahn, the ex-high leader of the White Fang. You're gonna have to do better than-" Sahlia's lobster hands turned back to normal and punched him cleanly in the face, breaking his mask as he went flying into a hill, making a crater as he landed.

BGM: Panic (Pokemon Ranger: Guardian Signs)
"Ooops, didn't mean to hit you that hard. I'm still getting used to this body of mine. Here, let me make it up to you!" Her arms formed into twin arm cannons and fired multiple charged shots of Plasma Beams.
"Aaargh!"
Adam got up, growling. "Like I should be afraid of your new tricks!" He said, lunging toward her as she shot at him before donning Samus's armor and rolled up into a ball, planting a few bombs as Adam was knocked up into the air, then Sahlia jumped up and axe kicked him to the ground.
Adam's aura fizzled as he growled, lunging again and clawing at Sahlia but she blocked with her twin arm cannons and then melee countered him, where she shot a charged Wave Beam into his crotch and then swung her arm cannon down into his skull to send him crashing into the ground, his aura shattering in an instant.
End BGM
Sahlia smiled, walking over to Adam. "Hmm…" You wouldn't mind if we ate him, would ya?
"Honestly, considering what he's become? He deserves it."
Sahlia grinned as she sat on top of him and proceeded to put her hands on his chest. "Nnngh… what…?" Adam wondered as he felt his life being drained as Sahlia began to eat him. "What…?! No! Wh-WHAT ARE THE HELL ARE YOU?!"
"I'm Sahlia. Blake's other half, her friend, an X-Parasite… AND YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE!" She said as she sank her teeth into his neck and sped up the process until he was fully absorbed into her body.
"...Honestly, it feels kinda wrong, but… it also felt so good too."
Sahlia smiled. "Ah, you're getting used to it, sis." She said, sitting down in the snow as she turned to see the Nargacuga crawling over to her and nuzzling against her.
"Sis?"
"Well, we are in the same body, so technically… this would make us sisters."
"Heh, you're right about that. Thanks for helping me stop him… sis."
Sahlia smiled. "No problem, big sister!" She clicked her tongue right after, with the aftertaste of Adam kicking in. "Blegh…! What is this taste?"
"I'm not sure. I-" Realization kicked in for Blake. "Is this… black licorice? Wow, that explains more than one would think."
"Considering how he acted, I'm surprised he doesn't taste like dead fish or something."
Blake gagged in her head. "Don't say that, please…"
"Blake…?" A voice asked as Sahlia turned to see Aqua approaching her. "Wh-what… what did you do?"
"Oh hi! You must be Aqua! Short version, I took care of some issues by eating my ex. The long version would take several hours to explai-"
They felt the ground rumbling beneath them as they turned to see the Glavenus walk toward them. "What the heck…?!" Aqua said.
"Ooooh, big feisty boy! I wanna eat tha-" The Glavenus lowered his head and nuzzled her affectionately. "...Eh?"
"Was this Adam's? He probably had this on standby in case things got out of hand. He's probably grateful that we ate him."
"Ah… so… can we eat this guy too?"
"How about we keep it as a pet? Like the Nargacuga."
Sahlia smiled. "Fair enough!"
"Who are you talking to?" Aqua wondered.
Sahlia giggled. "Oh, don't worry about it. Let's just head home."
Back at the Belladonna home…
"Soooo… let me get this straight…" Ruby said. "Adam attacked you both with that claw of his and had a giant T-Rex with a sword for a tail on standby-"
"And in order to end Adam and his mad reign of terror…" Weiss grimaced.
"You and that X-Parasite inside you had… TO FUCKING EAT HIM?!" Yang yelled in disgust.
"Weeeell…" Blake tried to say but Sahlia took over for her behalf.
"It was less eating him and more assimilating hi-" She paused, sweatdropping. "That doesn't make it much better, does it?"
In an instant, Winter snagged Qrow's flask and proceeded to down the entire flask before handing it back to him. "Ugh… I needed that after hearing that horror story." She said as Qrow shook his flask, not a single drop remained much to his dismay.
Ghira looked out the window to see the Glavenus. "...We're gonna need a bigger living room."
"Or a bigger backyard." Kali sweatdropped.
The next day…
"Sooooo… let me get this straight…" Esdeath said as she was visiting the Belladonna home. "You got infected with an X-Parasite, bonded with it, became sisters as this Sahlia decided to explore the Mushroom Kingdom and… in turn, ran into Adam and… you ate him?"
"That's the gist of it, yes." Blake nodded.
"I'm gonna need more proof than just words."
Sahlia took over. "Ta-dah~! Does this prove it to you, miss Esdeath?"
Esdeath blinked, horror setting in for her as she grabbed the flask that Qrow was holding and downed it before handing it back to Qrow, where he would realize that it was empty again.
"...For Oum's sake, why did I even bother coming to check on these two?" Qrow walked out of the home in annoyance.
"You do realize that now that Adam's no longer an issue, we could easily snatch up Seryu and get her treatment." Winter pointed out.
"Thankfully, we have his memories after we ate him, so we definitely know where she's located." Sahlia said.
"N-now hold on a moment!" Esdeath said. "We can't do anything with her yet as much as I want to. Unfortunately, Jacques Schnee is playing politics and has her under lock and key. As much as I want to do something to him to free Seryu, my hands are tied… which is ridiculous, honestly."
"...And where is this Jacques Schnee?" Sahlia asked.
"Mushroom City Prison." Winter said, before she realized what Sahlia was planning to do as she immediately ran out the door. "Sahlia! Wait a moment! No! …Ooooh…"
"Now now, have faith in Sahlia, I doubt she and Blake will do anything too horrific."
"...You do realize they ate Adam Taurus last night, right?"
Esdeath grimaced. "Oh… I just hope they don't do anything reckless."
"Okay, so uh… we probably need something that will get us there faster. Running won't do much."
"You're right. We need… wings! Now where would we get wings?" Sahlia wondered as she noticed Pit walking by with Ruby, chatting amongst themselves. "Oh hello~"
"Bad idea. His wings are useless, so if we ate him, we'd have useless wings… that and Ruby would hate us for the rest of her life."
"So basically, if we get his wings, we'd just… not be able to fly?"
"Right."
"Aww…" Sahlia pouted as she saw a Paratroopa flying nearby.
"Now those wings, on the other hand…"
Sahlia grinned, pulling out the Shadow Whip and flicked her wrist, grabbing a hold of the Paratroopa's ankle.
"Huh?" Sahlia yanked him down. "WAAAAAAAAAAAH!" He yelled as Sahlia grabbed a hold of him and absorbed him into her body, where Paratroopa wings sprouted from her back.
"Now this is more like it~!" She said, flapping her wings as she flew off toward the Mushroom City prison.
Once at the prison…
Sahlia landed near the courtyard, dismissing her wings. "Okay, so… how do we get in?"
"We're going to need a disguise."
The both of them heard whistling as they turned to see a guard walking by without a care in the world.
Immediately, he was grabbed by the shoulder and was yanked into a bush. "ACK!" He yelped as Sahlia walked out, wearing a security guard outfit.
"We didn't have to eat him."
"It's better to have him eaten then to alert the whole guard."
"Good point!"
Sahlia walked into the prison, casually whistling as they would see Jacques reading a book. She growled. "Him…"
"We need to create a distraction."
"Oh, I got something." Sahlia walked away, humming to herself as she walked into a generator room. Her hands formed into lobster claws as she cut through the power and also destroying the back up generator, shutting down the power.
"Okay folks! The power is out! Everyone back to their cells for the time being until we get it fixed!"
Jacques closed his book. "Hmph. You would think a maximum security prison would have better lights." He mumbled as he walked back to his cell.
Sahlia waited in the darkness, waiting for the right moment to pounce. As soon as Jacques was parallel to them, she grabbed a hold of him, covering his mouth and pulled him into the darkness. "MMMPH?!"
"Shhhh, this will only take a moment…" Sahlia whispered as Jacques struggled, his scroll slipping out of his pocket as Sahlia ate him up. "There we go." She clicked her tongue right after, where a horrid aftertaste kicked in. "Ugh!"
"Gross… moldy bread?"
"Blakey, we're gonna have to eat someone sweeter to get this taste out of our mouths."
"I'm with you there… wait a second, is that his scroll?"
Sahlia picked it up, noticing that something unlocked within the scroll as she looked into it. "Is this that Seryu girl's record?"
"...Oh my gosh."
"Faking a brain injury because the hospital made it up? …What?"
"Come on, let's show this to Esdeath."
"Right… but first, we need to eat someone sweeter."
Later…
Blake, having taken over, walked over to Esdeath who was chatting with Weiss and Winter. "Hey Esdeath!"
"Hmm?" Esdeath turned around. "Oh hey, you two. Where have you been?" She asked, hoping that they didn't do what they did.
"Oh, nowhere in particular." Blake said and then let out a belch. "Oh, excuse me…" She blushed.
"...Blake…? What did you eat?" Weiss asked.
"Oh, just a triple-stack strawberry milkshake after we took care of Jacques."
Sahlia took over. "It was so good~!"
Esdeath's body went completely white after fully registering what they meant by "taking care of Jacques". "...I'm… I'm gonna need a drink." She said as she turned around and walked off.
"I'll join you…" Winter said and followed her.
Weiss looked at Sahlia. "...You ate my ex-father, didn't you?"
"Maaaaaaybe~"
Weiss shook her head. "You know what? He deserved it."
At the bar…
"Here you go, sir." The bartender said to Qrow, having filled his flask.
"Thank you." He said, as he was about to drink from it, but Esdeath snatched it from him and downed the whole flask while Winter simply ordered a scotch. "Are you kidding me!"
Esdeath finished it and looked at the bartender. "Make this a double."
Later, at the Crimson Fang hideout…
"Zzzz…" Seryu slept next to a rock, sleeping peacefully… until the roar of a Glavenus woke her up and the sound of screaming soon followed. "What the…?!" She immediately sprang into action, using her metal hand to form a gun as she sprang into action… only to see the entire Crimson Fang gone and the DQ monsters having their masks removed.
"What…?"
"Seryu. Sh-Shtand doooown…"
Seryu turned her head to see Esdeath and the rest of the Winter Ops, although Esdeath looked completely plastered. "Are… are you drunk?"
"It's been a long day… but enough about that. You-you're coming with us."
"Like hell I am! …But… where are the guards? Why am I alone?"
"Hiiiii!" A voice said as she turned to see Sahlia sitting on a rock, licking her fingers. "Your friends were quite delicious!" She said, letting out a belch. "Oh, excuse me~!"
Seryu looked at her in horror and then turned to the Winter Ops. "She's… she's not going to eat me too, is she?"
"Hopefully not…" Winter said.
Sheele walked up to Seryu gently. "The Crimson Fang is done, Seryu. Jacques is dead, Adam's dead… it's only you that's left."
"Wait… Jacques is dead…?"
"Yes."
"He tasted kinda bad though…" Sahlia said.
"He's gone… he's truly gone…" Seryu teared up. "Jacques… I wanted to kill him myself, but… in a way, I'm glad I didn't do it…" She sniffled as Sheele gently hugged her as Seryu cried into her shoulder. "Please… make these voices in my head stop… I beg you…"
"Come on, let's go." Sheele said as they walked away, although Winter had to carry an extremely drunk Esdeath.
"I could have sworn you have a high tolerance to alcohol…" Winter mumbled.
"Guess I… went a bit overboard… does anyone else see the blueberry gumdrops over… there…" She fell asleep on her face. "Zzzzz…"
Seryu sweatdropped. "Well, that was the last thing I expected Esdeath to do when we met again."
"You have no idea how determined she was to see this through the end."
One surgery later…
"I will have to admit…" Seryu said as she was sitting in a hospital bed. "This whole thing that you got an X-Parasite within you and the fact that you… tend to eat and gain their abilities is honestly kinda frightening. Does that mean you have Adam's-"
"I think we do." Blake nodded. "Although, we're not sure how to activate it, but I'm sure we'll figure it out."
"I see… so while I will admit that I'm still sad that I wasn't the one to kill Jacques, you have my thanks." She said, taking Blake's hand. "You… and Sahlia."
Sahlia took over. "You're welcome, Ser-Bear!"
"Ser-Bear… heh, adorable." Seryu chuckled as she turned her head to see Sheele holding her other hand.
"How do you feel?" Sheele asked.
"The voices in my head are gone, I can at least relax now." Seryu giggled.
Later, during the Phazon War…
"AAAAAAAGH!" Ruby shrieked, holding on to her hair. "Make it stop… MAKE IT STOP!"
"Ruby!" Weiss exclaimed as her team was right next to her as was Rosalina, while her family glared at Dimentio.
"What the HELL do you think you're doing?!" Summer glared.
"I'm just giving her some memories. Is that so difficult?" Dimentio smiled. "But we haven't gotten to the denoue-"
BANG!
"Nnngh!" Dimentio grunted, holding on to his chest. "What…?"
BANG!
Everyone turned to see Seryu holding twin pistols in her hands.
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
Once a bullet hit Dimentio in the head, he fell over dead. "Shut up, clown."
"...Sahlia, you thinking what I'm thinking?"
"Oh heck yes~!"
Sahlia took over and jumped in, happily eating up Dimentio right as Hat Kid docked and walked over.
"Uh… what did I just walk into?"
Sahlia smiled, feeling the power of the chaos magic surge through them. "Now we have chaos magic, nice!"
"Welp, Ibuki sees no downside to this." Ibuki said.
"...You know what? I'm starting to warm up to this." Samus smirked.
Sahlia gasped, clutching her head as images flashed in their minds.
"You okay?" Weiss asked.
"...We'll be right back." Sahlia said as she teleported away.
With Dry Bowser's group…
"I wonder how Dimentio's doing…" Dry Bowser said.
"Aaaaah! Help me! I'm a defenseless Ruby Rose! If only someone can help me get my defenses back up!"
Grimm Ruby's eyes widened before smirking. "Ruby Rose… let's end this, you bitch!" She took off running, where she would end up teleporting on top of Peach's castle. "Huh?!"
A Lobster Claw grabbed her by the throat and shoved her into a wall. "Nnngh! What…?!" She would see Blake. "Blake…?!"
"You come to Ruby again, in fact, you go anywhere in Remnant, preying on the scarred for life huntress and we will find you… and eat both of your arms, and then we will eat both of your legs, and then we will eat your face right off your head, do you understand?"
"Wh-what is-"
"Yes!" She continued. "So you will be this armless, legless, faceless thing won't you? Rolling down the hill… like a log from a fallen tree. Do you feel me?"
"Wh-who the hell do you think you are threatening me?!"
Blake smirked. "We…
Sahlia took over. "Are an X-Parasite."
"Wh-what…?!"
"On second thought~" Sahlia proceeded to devour her on the spot.
"So… does this mean we have Grimm Powers now?"
"Hmm… I don't think so." Sahlia said, attempting to try it out… where she would summon Dark Ruby's scythe. In fact, her eyes glowed as time slowed down. "Cool! We got time slowing powers!"
"...We'll take it."
"Heck yeah!" Sahlia teleported back to the Observatory. "Hey Ruby, I believe this is for you." She tossed the blue Crescent Rose to her.
"You…?" Ruby looked at her.
"You're welcome~!"
Ruby said nothing, instead she smiled. "Everything feels so peaceful now…" She said, hugging Sahlia in gratitude.
"Everything will be at peace once we finish this war. Let's go!" Samus said as Summer hugged Ruby.
Later, at Space Storm Galaxy…
"Those your body guards? They look like little snacks!" Ridley smirked. "How unfortunate, Marnie. I just built up an appetite!" RIdley lunged at them, but something prevented him from moving. He turned around to see Doom Guy holding him by his tail. "What?!"
Doom Guy pulled Ridley toward him and punched him down, then he got on top of Ridley and grabbed a hold of Ridley's wings when he started to pull. Hard.
"Agh! Ow! RRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!"
RRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIP
Ridley let out a pained screech as his wings were ripped from his body, then Doom Guy threw his wings to the side… where Blake was all too happy to take for herself. "Ridley, you should've killed us back at the BSL station, because now…" She started to absorb the wings. "These wings are our lunch now."
Ridley looked on in horror as dragon wings sprouted from Blake. "No!"
"Oh yes." Blake smirked as she breathed fire, roasting Ridley as he was soon extracted to Dark Samus's ship.
"GET US OUT OF HERE NOW!" Ridley yelled as Blake teleported in.
"Sup!" She snapped her fingers as magic exploded all around them, forcing Dark Samus to grab Ridley and disappeared into a phazonic portal as Blake flew out and landed on the ground.
"I'm loving this more and more." Samus said.
"So… did we win?" Ed asked.
"No, they left in a portal. But they're not going to win this war, that's for sure." Blake said as Sahlia took over.
"You can count on that~!" Sahlia smiled, dismissing her dragon wings.
Later, when Chiaki joins them…
"So.. wait, let me get this straight." Chiaki said. "An X-Parasite infected Blake, but instead of killing her, she became one with Blake and is essentially the Venom of the group?"
"Pretty much." Hiyoko said.
"Yeah, and Blake-chan and Sahlia-chan are becoming a hell of a superstar!" Ibuki said.
"But… the X-Parasite should've killed her…" Chiaki put her hands over her head, looking completely distressed. "Everything I know about Metroid Fusion is a lie…"
After the Phazon War ended…
Blake sat on the roof of her home. "Well, at least that was taken care of."
"We could have at least eaten Dark Samus…"
"Yeah, but would you really want to mess with Phazon?"
"Good point."
"Alright, it did make Samus pretty happy that we ate Ridley though." Blake chuckled, morphing her hand into a dragon claw.
"Yup! We'll take what we can get."
"Yeah." Blake chuckled, looking up at the clouds. "So… what do you want to do now, sis?"
"I'm up for anything, honestly."
Blake looked through her scroll, and then noticed a news bulletin coming in. "Huh… says here that there's a hostage situation in Mistral. Wanna go?"
"Heck yeah, I'm hungry!"
"So am I." Blake stood up, her skin turning purple and purple draconic armor wrapped around her body as wings shot out of her back. "Rock and roll!" She flapped her wings and flew off.
"Aaaand that'll wrap things up for this universe. See you next time! Hades out!"
Ibuki: *cackles* Oh, this is too good! She loves it!
Major shout out to Kaizer for coming up with this glorious What If! I had way too much fun writing this!
