"I have to ask. How are you still alive?" Samus asked as they were going up the elevator.
"After I had perished after destroying Sector Zero, the Federation retrieved my body floating in space and they took me back to HQ. Once there, they were able to upload my brain into an Artificial Intelligence. They didn't even give me a new name… they called me Adam."
"Wait, so they just… uploaded your mind into an AI?" Rosalina asked.
"Indeed. Apparently if someone is well respected in the Galactic Federation, the federation will go and upload your mind into an AI after the body dies."
"Really!" Ridley chuckled. "Heh, so if I were to have met my end at Zebes, I could've become an AI… and I would continue to haunt Samus as an AI!"
"You've been haunting me as an organic lifeform, you smug bastard." Samus shot a glare.
"And I'm thoroughly enjoying it."
"Oi vey…" Blake rolled her eyes.
"Boop boop…" ROB agreed with Pikachu and the Wisp nodding.
"When I was brought online, I asked how Samus was. Admittedly, I freaked out when I realized I was an AI and demanded to back into my body… but they rebooted me into an obedient AI while they threw my original body away like it was garbage. I had no idea who I originally was… until Samus called me Adam and it slowly started to wake me up."
"Rrrgh… bastards…" Samus growled.
"Oh that is veeeery touching." Ridley said sarcastically. "It's like one of those cheesy romantic movies you see on the Hall of Marks channel."
"…How do you know about that?" Samus asked.
"The Princesses of the Mushroom Kingdom and Hyrule will NOT shut up about it." Ridley mumbled. "Hell, Isabelle won't shut up about it either!"
"Good enough for me." Samus shrugged.
"I think Pyrrha watches that too… or is it Coco?" Blake wondered. "I know Weiss isn't particularly interested in it…"
"Uh… guys?" Samus spoke up as they turned to her. "I think we lost Rosie." She said as they would see smoke coming out of Rosalina's ears.
"Uploading… someone's brain… in an AI…" She groaned. "Technology is going way too fast for me to catch up…"
"Best if you don't think about it." Samus said as ROB would move over and shake her to snap her out of it.
"Right…" Rosalina shook her head with a defeated sigh. "I'll never understand technology…"
"Isn't the Comet Observatory technologically advanced?" Blake pointed out.
"It's complicated." Rosalina admitted.
"Anyway, where is this Operations Room? I know you said it's on the Main Deck." Samus said as they hopped out of the main elevator.
"It's right around here." Adam said, as ROB pulled up a map. "Remember that data room where you got your missiles back? It's one story higher."
"Oh, so we're going into that big empty room again." Samus said and then chuckled. "Well alright then."
"Indeed."
"Let's move." Samus said as they would move toward their destination, shooting down the occasional BSL Zombie that was prowling about the station as they woulc climb up the corridors, although Ridley would just fly up as they would soon reach the empty room.
"Hmph, kind of empty in here." Ridley said.
"Yeah well, it's not like it's gonna be anything grand or fancy." Samus said as they kept walking… whenn suddenly they heard an explosion.
"What was that?" Blake asked.
"We got company." Rosalina said as Pikachu got on all fours with sparks shooting out of his cheeks… and then the SA-X burst out of the door, slowly walking toward them before stopping.
BGM: Tension (Super Metroid)
Samus aimed her arm cannon at it as it did the same, both of them circling around each other before they came to a complete stop, both of them charging up their weapons before they shot at each other, both of their beams hitting each other and exploding as they both charged through the smoke as they proceeded to clobber each other with hand to hand combat before Samus roundhouse kicked the SA-X out as it would recover and slide a few feet.
"Hmph. That all you got?" Samus smirked as the SA-X would stand back up.
"Guys… I hate to say this, but we got company closing in!" Adam warned and then right on cue, another SA-X walked through the hatch that SPBRR had walked through, and was joined by eight others.
"All ten of them!" Rosalina gasped as the SA-Xs would slowly surround them in a circle, all of them aiming their arm cannons at the team.
"Well… might as well go out in style…" Samus said, finding herself back to back with RIdley.
"Heh… I might as well add a few more bodies to my repertoire."
"Trying to close the gap, are we?" Samus taunted.
"Now's not the time for that!"
"Have faith, Blake… we'll get through this." Rosalina said as a shadow was cast over Blake's eyes, clenching her fists and was trembling, gritting her teeth while Pikachu let out a low growl while ROB and Adam were squaring up.
"So… it's either us or you freaks!" Ridley said, letting out a roar. "Let's see if you can handle all of us together!"
"…That… is enough…" Blake said in a low voice.
End BGM
Rosalina turned to Blake in concern. "Blake…?"
"I have had it…" The shadow over Blake's eyes disappeared, as it was replaced with eyes of absolute fury. Something inside of her snapped. "I have had it… WITH THESE MOTHERFUCKING X-PARASITES IN THIS MOTHERFUCKING STATION!"
"The claws are coming out." Ridley smirked. "Time for the chaos to begin!" He said as everyone got in their stances.
"Let's break their fucking legs." Blake said.
BGM: Moonlit Wilderness (Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection Online)
Nightmare Unleashed - The SA-X
Samus charged at one of the SA-X, proceeding to shoot at it with the Wave Beam as it did the same, both shots colliding as Samus would then Speed Boost into it and then kicked it to a wall, charging up the Wave Beam and firing but the SA-X would roll out of the way and used its Grapple Beam to grab Samus… but then Pikachu came running over with Volt Tackle and slammed it to a wall.
Two SA-X's fired at Blake, but she used her semblance as the Void Wisp went inside of her as she would unleash a Kazammle Laser at the two of them as they would proceed to drop two Power Bombs and kicked it toward Blake.
"VOID!"
Blake would unleash her Void Powers and would send them back at them, causing it to explode and knocked the two away while Ridley would fly over and breathed fire at the two. He would then dodge an SA-X shooting at him as he also swiftly avoid the missiles as he would dive bomb and slam into the ground breathing a point blank plasma fire attack as he would then pick it up and throw it across the room.
Rosalina would float up, throwing down meteors at the SA-Xs as Ridley would fly over and catch one of them as he would throw them down at an SA-X as one of them would sneak up behind Ridley and fire Super Missiles but Rosalina would catch them telekinetically and threw them back down onto the SA-X.
ROB used Arm Rotor on an SA-X as Adam would spin ROB's head and fire lasers all around, striking the SA-Xs individually as ROB would readjust his head as he pulled out a Gyro but then Adam would activate the thrusters and caught the gyro on fire before throwing a flaming gyro at an SA-X.
Ridley would then land on the ground, breathing fire around him as he would then use a flip kick to knock an SA-X up in the air where Samus would then run over and jump up, using Ridley's back as a platform as she would jump up and axe kicked the SA-X to the ground where she and Ridley would shoot/breath a fireball at it together while it slammed into the ground.
Samus would then land on the ground and went into the Morph Ball as Ridley picked her up and threw her to an SA-X, but it would dodge as she would land on the wall, but she activated the Spider Ball and then laid a Power Bomb on the wall, where the explosion would send her flying into two SA-Xs to knock them down as ROB would turn around and catch her, then spinning his arms around and throwing her into another SA-X.
Ridley would then fly up into the air as Blake would pull out her Shadow Whip and then wrapped it around his tail as Ridley would smirk and fly around where Blake would proceed to fire Ice Beams at the SA-Xs where Pikachu would use an Iron Tail on a few while using Thunderbolt on another.
Four SA-Xs would crowd around Pikachu as they aimed their Arm Cannons at him but he smirked as he would activate Volt Tackle… but this was no ordinary Volt Tackle. "Pika… CHUUUUUUUUUUUU!" He yelled, unleashing his Final Smash on the four of them, turning himself into an electric ball of death as he zipped toward them and electrocuting them all before he unleashed an electric explosion that would knock them all away.
Ridley would fly down and grabbed an SA-X, slamming it into the ground and then carried it with him while scraping it across the ground where he would slam it into a wall and then it would attempt to shoot him… until Ridley impaled it with his tail and then breathed fire at it for good measure, then he tossed it away.
Two SA-Xs were firing at Samus, where she would quickly roll out of the way and shoot at them back where Rosalina got behind the two SA-Xs where she smirked and nodded at Samus, where she would do the sae as Samus would start running, taking a few hits as she activated her Speed Boost while Rosalina would fly toward them as she turned herself into a comet as Samus Shinesparked as the two of them slammed into the SA-X's into the opposite walls, where Samus would shoot the one with her Plasma Beam while Rosalina would throw cosmic fire at the other.
"Super Diffusion Beam, activate!" Adam said as ROB got into position as he started firing small lasers at the SA-X's before he started firing a massive laser where Blake had kicked one into the laser where it was blasted into the wall as Pikachu would then use Iron Tail on it for good measure.
One SA-X was left still standing as it would try to fire its beam at Blake where she ran toward it, using her semblance to dodge as she got closer before she would fire at its knees with the Wave Beam before she switched to her Belladonna Claws and slashed through the legs to knock the SA-X down before she kicked it on its back and got on top of it where she raised her arm up and impaled it through its neck and chest.
End BGM
"Go to hell." She spat as she pulled away, putting her claws away as they looked around to see all of them down and out.
"Hmph. Good riddance." Ridley said.
However, they saw one of the SA-Xs slowing rising, holding on to its shoulder. "What! You want to go another round?" Blake asked. "Because we can fuck you up like we did the others!"
The SA-X bowed its head and the helmet seemed to be shaking a little, as if it was chuckling. It would then stand strong as the other SA-Xs turned into the parasiting blobs as they flew into the SA-X as it started to shine brightly as everyone got ready as it grew gigantic and formed into an unholy fusion of an abomination, letting out a gigantic roar.
"What in the name of…?!" Rosalina said in surprise.
"That looks familiar… wait, that's the Hornoad that drooled on me! Of course it fused with my Power Suit." Samus mumbled.
"…What. Are you serious?" Ridley said in disbelief. "You mean to tell me this THING that made your lives hell is nothing more than a measly HORNOAD?"
"Apparently so!" Samus said.
"And it fused with your Power Suit to create this unholy abomination!" Ridley said as he let out a low growl. "You mean to tell me I was terrified of a MEASLEY HORNOAD?!"
"Preeetty much."
Ridley snarled, turning toward the SA-X. "Okay you! You think you're so tough but you're just a measly Hornoad! You think you're the scariest monster in the galaxy? GUESS WHAT! I am the scariest monster in this galaxy… and there's only room for one killer in this universe, AND IT'S GONNA BE ME!"
BGM: Diggernaut (Metroid: Samus Returns)
"Welp, he's pissed." Samus said.
"I can't really blame him. I'd be mad too." Adam said.
"Boop boop." ROB agreed.
"Let's tear this asshole to shreds." Blake said.
"Yes… let's." Ridley snarled.
The SA-X would jump over toward them, creating shockwaves as they would dodge them as it would backhand Samus, knocking her to a wall but she recovered and shot it up with Super Missiles and Diffusion Missiles but it would grab them and crush them with its hand as it snarled, aiming its hand at her and fired lasers as it did the same with the others, forcing them to dodge while Ridley had flown up in the air and then landed on its head, grabbing its arm and pulling it toward its face, making it shoot itself as it let out a loud roar of pain.
Ridley would then fly off and breathed fire as it did the same, both of them colliding as it resulted in a stand still between the two as Rosalina would aim her wad and fire cosmic lasers at the SA-X as Pikachu would unleash a Thunderbolt, ROB firing his own lasers as Samus would be shooting missiles and Blake firing Plasma Beams.
All of this was enough to give Ridley the edge as his plasma breath pierced through the SA-X as he would fly over and impale it in the face with his tail before pulling out as it tried to grab Ridley but Rosalina would cut off its arm with a cosmic wave as Ridley would proceed to breathe fire to melt it as it would roar in agony and tried to fire lasers at Ridley but he was too swift for it as he would fly up to pull a pipe off of the ceiling and dive bombed where he would impale the top of its head.
The SA-X let out loud roars as it tried to get it off but Ridley would continue to insert it in its head before shoving the rest of it down with his foot as the SA-X went limp… and fell to the ground where it would shrink into a harmless X-Parasite.
End BGM
Ridley would let out a victorious screech as Samus would try to snag the X-Parasite… but it would fly off before Samus could grab it as it went into the ventilation. "Hey! Wait!" Samus called out. "…Why would it…?"
"Don't worry about it, it'll get destroyed just like everything else here." Ridley said as Blake would have watched it fly away.
"Good fucking riddance." She mumbled under her breath as she turned to the others. "Well, what are we waiting for? Let's destroy this place and get the hell out of here."
"Agreed." Samus nodded as they would climb/fly their way up to the hatch as they opened it and would walk inside, finding themselves in the Operations Room.
"Here it is." Adam said. "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." Samus said.
"Of course you would say that." Ridley said.
"Propulsion sequence activated. Destination: Planet SR-388. Ten minutes until impact."
BGM: Evacuate Immediately! (Metroid: Other M)
"Aaaagh!" Blake yelped, covering her ears from the loud alarms that were blaring.
"Welp, that's our cue. Let's move!" Samus said as they started to leave, quickly hopping down as they ran/flew through the hatches as they would hop into the elevator as they made their way down. Samus tapping her foot impatiently while Blake was still covering her ears from the loud alarms. Rosalina looked a bit unsure… sure they had ten minutes, but she had a feeling something would be stopping them.
Once the elevator stopped, they would quickly run off as they hopped down through the corridors, then they would run ahead as they would drop down another corridor.
"We're almost at the docking bay!" Adam said as they would keep going, dodging through debris as they would open up a hatch as they made it to the docking bay… but to their surprise, both Ridley's and Samus's ship were nowhere to be seen.
"What the? Where's my ship?!" Ridley demanded. "What are those fools doing!"
"Where is it?!" Blake yelled.
"Hello there…"
End BGM
"Nine minutes until impact."
While the alarms were still blaring, they would turn to see Shou Tucker approaching them… and behind him was Nina who was an Omega Metroid. "You!" Blake glared.
"Hmhmhm… Master Ridley, I thank you for bringing SPBRR to me… now I can have you witness Nina's true 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 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!" Ridley said.
"…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!" He said.
"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, he 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 would viciously bite dow on Shou's head and tear it right off, eating his head whole before splitting the body in two as blood splashed everywhere.
"Ah, damned fool… he didn't listen." Ridley said.
"…I've seen worse." Samus said.
"Ouch." Adam said while the sight was enough to make Rosalina's stomach turn, Blake nearly puking at the gruesome sight and ROB covering Pikachu's eyes, with the latter trying to get a good peek out of the carnage that happened.
Nina let out a roar. "Alright, here we go!" Samus said as the Omega Metroid charged at them, slashing down with her claws but Samus rolled out of the way and fired Ice Missiles at her while Rosalina conjured up cosmic fire and launched it at hr with Nina breathing fire of her own, clashing with Rosalina as Blake ran over and slashed at Nina's face while Ridley would get on Nina's back and would claw at her.
Nina slapped the ground with her tail, as debris started falling down as Samus would shoot at it with the help of ROB and Pikachu, where Ridley would get off while Blake backflipped away as Rosalina would catch some debris and threw it back at Nina, causing her to back up with a snarl.
The Omega Metroid would spit out some kind of mist, as Samus's radar would pick up on it as Blake would go through the mist as she tried to slash at the massive Metroid. "Wait a minute… BLAKE!" Samus yelled.
"Nnngh!" Blake winced as the mist cleared as she turned around and saw several Omega Metroids around her, all of them wearing party hats except for one as it tackled her to the ground as it still craved her aura and proceeded to bite down on her stomach. "AAAAAGH!" She cried as it started to suck her aura dry but Rosalina would push it back as Ridley would breathe fire at it.
"That was a hallucinogenic venom." Samus said, picking Blake up as she would see that it had torn off a good chunk of her Zero Suit, exposing the lower parts of her breasts and her abdomen where there would be some flesh having been ripped off of her. "Rosie!"
"Hmm? …Oh…" Rosalina grimaced as she hurried over while Pikachu headbutted Nina as ROB fired a laser and used an Arm Rotor to knock back some acid spit where Rosalina would put her hand on Blake's wound and iced it up while healing it.
Nina would backhand Pikachu and ROB away as she would breathe fire on the ground before slowly moving her head up where Ridley would breathe fire, both of them clashing as Samus would run toward Nina and shoulder tackled it with a speed boost as Ridley's fire breath won the clash. Nina growled at Samus and would claw her down but Samus melee countered it and then shot a missile to knock her on her back as she would jump over and start shooting at the nucleus.
Nina would attempt to slash at Samus but she gracefully dodged as she aimed and fired a Wave Beam at her as Nina would get up and slowly growl… before it got on all fours and slowly started to shake.
End BGM
"Five minutes until impact."
"What's it doing…?" Blake wondered.
"Oh, I don't like the looks of this…" Samus said as suddenly, the Omega Metroid's body started to break apart as massive legs shot out of the carcass, a massive tail shot out as well and then the carcass shattered as a massive Metroid towered before them as it let out a massive roar.
"What's worse than an Omega?" Rosalina asked.
"The Queen…" Samus said quietly.
"Four minutes until impact."
"We can still win this." Adam said. "We haven't run out of time yet!"
"Right… so let's do this!" Samus said as the Metroid Queen roared.
BGM: Metroid Queen (Metroid: Samus Returns)
Sovereign Mother Alien - Nina the Metroid Queen
"The good news is, these aren't nimble!" Samus said, but to her surprise, this particular Queen Metroid lunged and would start to claw at everyone with impressive agility while also attempting to whack Pikachu and ROB with her tail.
"You were saying?" Ridley asked.
"Oh zip it!"
"Nimble or not, we still have a fighting chance!" Rosalina said as she would throw cosmic waves that the Metroid Queen simply shrugged off as it chomped down at the cosmic woman, forcing her to teleport away as she would shoot out cosmic ice at it, but it would simply headbutt her to send her flying but she would recover, but her head did spin from the massive headbutt.
"Ridley, get me in its mouth!" Samus requested.
"If you want to get eaten, I'll be happy to oblige!" He said, as Samus went into her Morph Ball as Ridley picked her up as he threw her into Nina's mouth who was busy making ROB and Pikachu's life hell, as Samus would successfully go into her mouth to try and attempt to Power Bomb her, but she would spit her out.
"Nnngh!" Samus grunted, getting out of the morph ball. "Well, that didn't work…" She said as the holes on the Metroid Queen's back would produce volcanic rock that forced them to dodge as the rocks would shatter and produced malicious Larval Metroids.
"Oh, you gotta be kidding!" Blake exclaimed as they would attempt to shoot at the Metroids but Samus would realize what was about to happen as the Metroid Queen would charge at Pikachu and ROB.
"No!" Samus exclaimed as she charged ahead and got in the way as she was headbutted to a wall. "GAAAAH!" She yelled, slamming into a wall and falling on both knees.
Energy critically low.
"SAMUS!" Blake yelled as the Queen Metroid slammed her foot on the ground to make an electric shockwave that would electrocute both Blake and ROB as Nina would body slam the both of them into the walls, Blake's aura shattering the moment her back hit the wall as the Larval Metroids would charge at Ridley, forcing him to breathe fire at them to destroy them but he would find himself get webbed up by the Queen Metroid.
"Rrrgh!"
Rosalina would return, quickly throwing fireballs at her but the tail would grab her as she would throw Rosalina into Pikachu, knocking them both into a railing. The Metroid Queen roared before it slowly crept toward Blake.
"Blake… no…" Samus weakly said as Blake would slowly come around and see the Queen Metroid ready to snack on her. She let out a shriek as she tried to fire at her… when suddenly another laser came in as the SA-X came running in and Shinesparking into the Metroid Queen.
Nina snarled, roaring at the SA-X as it quickly tried to shoot at it with Ice Beam and Super Missiles, dodging the attacks as it would attempt to fire a charged Ice Beam at her, but Nina would turn around and smacked the SA-X to the wall near Samus, knocking it down.
End BGM
"Two minutes until impact."
Samus would weakly look at the SA-X as the SA-X struggled to get up, both of them looking at the Metroid Queen who snarled at them before turning her attention back to the terrified Faunus. The SA-X turned to Samus, the Bounty Huntress looking at the parasite as both of them slowly nodded.
The SA-X reached for Samus's hand, the latter grabbing its hand as it would morph into the X-Parasite and went inside Samus, as the bounty huntress would feel herself getting rejuvenated.
Power Suit back online!
Energy Tanks, Missiles and Power Bombs at max capacity!
Ice Beam back online!
Diffusion Beam back online!
Grapple Beam back online!
Zero Laser back online!
All systems back online!
Samus slowly rose, cracking her neck as she clenched her fist, glaring hard at the Metroid Queen as she started glowing.
Blake backed up, but she was pinned against a wall as she turned back to Nina who was snarling and drooling, swatting away Blake's wisp as it tried to defend her. One of her Nina's feet would press against Blake's legs, making sure her prey wouldn't escape. Blake could smell the horrid Metroid breath as she tried to shoot it but her hands refused to even pull the trigger as the Metroid Queen let out a low growl as Blake closed her eyes and let out a loud shriek.
"Get away from her, YOU BITCH!"
BGM: Main Theme - Metroid (Super Smash Bros Brawl/Wii U/Ultimate)
A charged Ice Beam struck the Metroid Queen, causing her to roar as Samus would quickly Shinespark into her to make her back away from Blake. Samus would then charge up her beam and then shot a Diffusion Beam into the Metroid Queen's throat, causing her to back up as Samus would grab the roof of her mouth with the Grapple Beam and slammed her into the ground to daze her as Samus would lay a Power Bomb before kicking it inside Nina's throat, where it would explode inside of her.
The Queen Metroid let out a pained roar and then spat out an acidic acid breath but Samus would roll out of the way as she would pelt her with Ice Beams and Diffusion Beams as the Metroid Queen would charge at Samus, attempting to bite dow but Samus would quickly backflip and fired a piercing Plasma Beam while also shooting out Diffusion Missiles with her Diffusion Beam.
Samus would land on the ground as Nina would bite down, but Samus would harshly melee counter it, and then used her Grapple Beam to pull her down to the ground again to daze her as she quickly rolled into her mouth and laid another Power Bomb inside of her and rolled out as it exploded.
The Metroid Queen would shoot out volcanic rocks, but Samus would shoot them up with her Ice Beam as they shattered on the ground along with the Metroids as she would slam on the ground to create electric shockwaves, but Samus backflipped into the air and shot a Diffusion Beam.
Nina snarled and started to charge up a fire breath attack as Samus got into position, as she would do the same as Nina would unleash a massive Fire breath attack. "HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Samus yelled, unleashing Zero Laser as both her laser and the fire breath attack collided, resulting in a struggle.
…However, the Zero Laser proved stronger as it would push through the fire breath attack and engulfed the Metroid Queen. Nina let out a pained roar as it would try to push through the Zero Laser, but it would slowly evaporate from the attack until nothing remained of it.
"Good riddance." Samus said once she stopped firing her Zero Laser as she would turn aroudn and get Ridley out of his webbing.
"Gee, I've been saved by Samus. How swell. NOT!" He grumbled as everyone slowly regrouped as they would see their ships returning to them… and they would see SR-388 getting dangerously close.
"Fifteen seconds until impact."
"Gotta go!" Samus said as they would quickly get into their respective ships and high tailed it out of there, flying out of the station as the BSL station would proceed to ignite into flames before hitting the surface of SR-388 and exploding behind the two ships.
End BGM
"Mission complete." Samus would say, breathing a sigh of relief as she would patch through Ridley's ship. "Ridley, I can't believe I'm saying this… but thank you."
"Eh, you too. Now, see you losers back at the mansion!" Ridley said before his ship flew off into hyperspace.
"Haaaah…" Samus rested her head on the chair as Pikachu would hop into her lap. "Hey bud." She smiled, scratching him behind the ears as she would turn her head to see Blake having passed out as soon as her butt hit the chair while Rosalina would let out an exhausted yawn.
Samus let out a chuckle before folding her arms. "Of course… I wonder what the Federation will think now…"
"I wouldn't worry about it." Adam said. "Someone out there will believe our story… besides, I know Anthony's got your back… "princess"."
Samus blushed at the name. "Oh, now don't you start…"
"Of course, the Federation will brand us as space pirates, but you know what? I'll be fine with it. After all… they know not to mess with you."
"Yeah…" Samus chuckled. "Still… something's bothering me."
"How did your ship get out and came back in? You can thank them." Adam had ROB turn his head as Samus would turn her chair around and saw the Etecoons and Dachoras all napping together while Alexander had attempted to jump on Rosalina's lap.
"Mmmph! Oh honey, you are definitely not a lap dog…" Rosalina winced as Alexander happily barked. "…Alright, five minutes." She giggled.
"What, did we miss the party?" A voice asked as Samus turned her head to see a ship flying by.
"Who's that?" Rosalina asked.
"Whoever you are in that ship, identify yourself!" Samus said.
"Easy, easy, we're the Galactic Federation Strike Force."
"Oh joy… so you're probably here to kill us after what we did to the BSL station."
"Are you kiddin'?" A younger voice asked. "We're tired of their bullshit too!"
"We'll follow your lead, Samus."
Samus smirked. "Well in that case… let's go home." She said as she activated the Warp Speed as SPBRR and the Strike Force flew off.
Later, in the middle of Hyper Space…
Blake's scroll went off, but it wasn't enough to wake the faunus. "Pika?" Pikachu hopped down off of Samus's lap as he would gently pull the scroll off of the sleeping faunus who was snuggling with the Wisp as he would hand it over to Pikachu.
"Hmm?" Samus wondered before inserting it into her ship's mainframe, immediately hitting a button to activate the camera so everyone could see them. "Hello?"
BGM: Home (RWBY)
"Samus? What are you doing with Blake's scroll?" A worried voice asked. "What happened to my best friend?! Don't tell me she-"
"Easy, Weiss. Take a breather. The X-Parasites are no more and we're on our way home right now." Samus said. "Blake's currently napping as we speak."
"Oh thank Oum! I was this close to actually flying to your location… and I have Ruby and Yang with me too!"
"Heya!"
"Yo!"
"Please tell me Blake's not too hurt!"
"Weeeell… she survived, I'll say that much." Samus said. "But don't worry, we'll be back home soon. Where are you guys at? It looks all snowy over there."
"We got hit with a snowstorm but everyone's having a fun time over here!" Yang grinned.
Samus smiled. "Ah, back into a peaceful snowy civilization. Excellent. We'll be there shortly… you at the mansion?"
"Actually we're at Mushroom Fields." Yang said, taking Weiss's scroll.
"H-hey!"
"Say hi guys!" Yang encouraged as the Belladonnas, Ilia, Mercedes, Sun, Sienna, Summer, Tai, and Blake's Pokemon were there as well, and even the psychics and Arceus were there.
"Oh wow! You were going to bring a whole army with you." Samus chuckled.
Weiss took the scroll back. "Well yeah… X-Parasites be damned! We were going to come save you guys. I didn't care what it took! Arceus was still nervous about it though…"
"Indeed… I was still unsure if it was a good idea…" Arceus admitted.
"Well… we'll see you in a few." Samus said as she hung up and then looked back at Blake before sighing. "Good to be back…" She said, scratching Pikachu behind the ears.
Later, at Remnant…
"There they are!" Yang said as they saw them entering the atmosphere.
"…Does Samus's ship look different?" Ruby wondered.
"Yeah, it does. I wonder who's flying that other ship though?" Weiss wondered before turning to the Rose-Xiao Long family. "Thanks for trying to come help out."
"Anytime." Summer smiled.
"Yeah, I would've punched my way through those Parasites. Heh…" Tai chuckled as Samus's ship came to a gentle landing with Zelda and the Xenas waving their hands with magic to get their attention, as both ships landed on the snow.
A hatch opened up as the Etecoons and Dachoras ran out. "Whoa!" Ilia yelped as they ran past her as they disappeared into the distance. "What the…?"
Samus was the first to walk out in her Power Armor as Rosalina was next with ROB/Adam and Pikachu coming out next. "Oh Rosie…" Ruby grimaced. "You look so beat up!"
"Yikes… that's a shiner…" Yang winced.
"It's nothing… don't worry." Rosalina smiled, then Ruby would immediately see Alexander next to her, causing her to gasp.
"Big doggy!" She said as she immediately rushed over as she pet him on the head as he would happily tackle her to the ground and lick her face. "Ack! Hahahaha! I think Zwei will love you! That tickles!"
"Where's Blake?" Weiss asked as Samus deactivated her Power Suit as she and Rosalina would turn to see Blake and her Wisp comig out, the former having her helmet on. Weiss would see Blake's injury on her abdomen and her heart sank looking at it while everyone else grimaced at it.
"Hey…" Blake said as Weiss would slowly approach her and gently removed her helmet as Weiss would see her short hair and the scars on her face.
"Whoa… she looks cute with short hair." Ruby whispered once she got Alexander off of her.
"I was about to say the same thing." Yang chuckled.
"Her face… oh dear…" Mercedes whispered.
Weiss teared up. "You dolt… are you trying to one up me in the scar department?" She asked with a teasing teary smile, trying to contain herself.
"I didn't mean to…" Blake silently chuckled as Weiss would embrace her with Blake doing the same, pressing their foreheads against each other as tears ran down Blake's cheeks.
"Welcome home…" She silently sobbed as Blake cried with her and then would feel nuzzling on her leg as she would look down and see her Absol and the rest of her Pokemon approaching her.
"Hey guys…" Blake smiled, still teary eyed as she would hug Sun, her parents, Ilia, Mercedes and even Sienna before she hugged the psychics and Calyrex as even Arceus got a hug, the latter chuckling and gently patting her on the back, and then Ruby, Yang and their parents would hug Blake as well.

"Touching reunion, I take it." A voice said as they saw the Strike Team approaching them.
"Who are they?" Yang asked.
BGM: Amestris Military March (Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood)
"Allow us to introduce ourselves." The first spoke as he touched the padding on his shoulder armor as it would deactivate. "Noble One: Roy Mustang!" He said as the others would deactivate theirs as well.
"Noble Two: Riza Hawkeye!" She saluted.
"Noble Three: Alex Armstrong! Pleasure to make your acquaintances!" He said as he flexed his muscles… which somehow ripped off his entire shirt.
"Oh brother… you and your stupid flexing… anyway, Noble Four: Olivier Armstrong." She said… before pulling her brother's ear. "And will you put your stupid shirt back on!"
"Noble Five: Alphonse Elric!"
"And I'm Noble Six… Edward Elric! Nice to meet ya!" He grinned, as what was notable about Edward was that he had a metal arm and a metal leg to boot. "Anyway, that's all of us here! So there's nobody left in that shi-"
Suddenly, a thrown wrench smacked him in the back of the head. "YOWCH!"
End BGM
"WHAT AM I, CHOPPED LIVER?!" A female yelled as Edward would turn to see a young woman looking mighty peeved. "Just because I'm your pilot doesn't mean you should exclude me, you idiot!"
"And… Winry Rockbell… our pilot… and… best friend of… me and Al… ooooow…" Edward groaned, sprawled out into the snow while everyone sweatdropped.
"They're a lively bunch, aren't they?" Yang chuckled in amusement.
"Apparently so." Ruby giggled.
"…Blake, are you okay? You look pale." Kali said.
"I… I feel… fine…" Blake groaned before collapsing but Samus would quickly catch her.
"I got ya." Samus said. "She's been through a lot…"
"And judging by all your wounds, I would advise that you all need to get checked into the hospital." Ghira said.
"Honestly? That'd probably be wise…" Samus said and shook her head. "You would not believe the hell we went through."
