Chapter 5 Welcome To Planet Zebes

Planet Zebes Surface

The portal opens as Josh, Lucario and Greninja steps onto the planet and the portal disappears behind them. Several feet in front of them was Samus's ship.

"We found the ship." The teen said. "But where's Samus?"

Lucario closed her eyes as she begin to search for the bounty hunter's aura. The Aura Pokémon could see a aura inside the ship. "Samus is in there." she said.

"Good." Josh nodded.

"Any idea on how are going to tell her how we ended up here?" Greninja wondered, looking at the teen.

"Leave that to me." Josh said.

The hatch of the gunship opens and a person in a orange suit appears. She jumps off from the gunship and lands in front of Josh and points her arm cannon at him. The Aura Pokémon growled in defense as she stares at the bounty hunter.

"Who are you three?" the bounty hunter asks Josh.

The teen took a couple steps back from her. He slowly took off his helmet to show his face. "My two friends and I are apart of the Galactic Federation."

Samus looks at him suspiciously. "If you're part of the Galactic Federation, why are you wearing a suit that looks exactly like mine, why are these two creatures with you and how did you three get here with no ship?" she questions him.

"We're here because of the Space Pirates and a new menace." Josh lied as he explains. "This new menace was creating these suits to help the Space Pirates. I went alone to head here but I was captured along with these two."

"Go on."

"Then the three of us teamed up to escape as the guard wasn't looking." Josh continue to lie. "I manage to steal their prototype suit with the information. After that, we hijack one of their ships and crashed back on the surface."

"How long were you here on the planet?"

"A grand total of three days. We made sure that the ship is destroyed so they won't track us."

"Are they planning anything else?"

"They're going to use these suits to kill you and the Federation. My mission is to destroy this menace. And since you're here, maybe we can help each other."

"Why should I believe you?"

"Trust me." the teen said. "This menace is a lot more dangerous than the Space Pirates. If we don't help each other, we're going to be dead soon."

"Fine." Samus said as lower she lower her weapon.

Josh, Lucario and Greninja follows her down into the caverns. To their right was a big boulder and behind them was a door. There was some Zoomers behind them as well. Samus fired a couple shots at the Zoomers in front of her before proceeding to the big boulder. She jumps over a stone pillar and requires the Morph Ball before returning back to Josh, Lucario and Greninja.

The four of them walks through the door.

Room 3

The third room that they were in was big. There was a big wall that was blocking the path. Samus tucks herself into a ball and proceeded to go through the gap, followed by Josh. Lucario used Force Palm to destroy the wall and rejoined them. A Chozo statue stood before them. Samus tucks herself in a ball once again and hops on the palm of the statue. A orange light glowed from the statue, revealing a path. The statue sits down as Samus got of her Morph Ball.

Josh and the two Pokémon followed the bounty hunter through two rooms.

Save Room

All four of them enters the save room. Samus steps into the middle of the room to have her energy be restored and Josh did the same thing.

Room 4

As they all exit the room, Samus stops walking.

"What's wrong?" Greninja asked.

"There's something sticking out of the ground." Samus said, pointing out of the ground.

There was some sort of small chip sticking out of the ground. Josh walks over to bend down and pick up. It was some sort of light yellow-green hexagon. Something blue reflected off the shard, causing the teen to look up.

"Move!" Josh yelled, but it was too late.

All four of them got blasted from the Zero Laser above. Fusion Suit Samus or FSS jumps down from a couple of platforms and lands near them. FSS quickly turns around to fire a missile at a Aura Sphere.

"Don't you touch him!" Lucario yelled, landing a Force Palm on the false bounty hunter.

"What about Josh?!" Greninja called out to Samus.

The Bounty Hunter ran towards the knocked out teen. "He's fine." Samus said. "But injured."

"Cough..." the teen coughed, opening his eyes. "Damn, that hurts." Josh groaned as he sat up and stands up to glare at the false bounty hunter. "Greninja, go high and Lucario go low! Samus and I will attack from a distance!"

Lucario attacks from behind FSS as Greninja was throwing some Water Shuriken's. Josh and Samus fires some missiles from the false bounty hunter blind spots. FSS did her best to attack back, but she was overwhelmed. Josh charges a full shot before doing a front flip and stuck his arm canon in front of the false bounty hunter's face. He pulls the trigger and fires the energy shot. They all watch FSS disappears into nothingness.

"Are you alright, Josh?" Lucario asks him.

"I'm fine, Lucario." Josh answers.

"You've taken some serious damage." Greninja said.

The four of them continue to venture down through the planet's carverns. Lucario was keeping an eye on her friend. They went on to several other rooms.

Mua's Room

They entered a big room where there was four platforms. Samus jumps into the air and grabs onto the handhold and moves to the other side and lands on the platform. Then a big purple worm creature came out of the acid.

"It's Mua!" Josh shouted. "Don't let it pull you into the acid!"

Lucario and Greninja quickly jumps backward and lands on the platform.

"Hmph!" Josh grunted as he and Samus jumps backward from Mua's lunge attack.

Samus scanned the monster quickly and found its weak point. "It has a weak area behind its jaw in the neck region!" Samus shouted.

"Got it." Josh nodded. "Lucario, Greninja, concentrate your fire at the weak area!

Both Pokémon nodded as they fired Aura Sphere and Water Shuriken at the worm. The worm yells in anger, sinking back into the acid. Josh and Samus grabs onto a hook and got on the other side before Mua attacks the platform. They fired missles, Aura Spheres and Water Shurikens at Mua.

The worm screeches in pain as Mua exploded. They all watch the acid being lowered.

"Stay here." Samus said to the three of them. "I'm going to head down to the lower level." With that said, Samus jumps off the platform, landed in the center of the room and planted a small bomb to create a hole and disappeared.

Josh, Lucario and Greninja jumps off the platform to get on the floor. "Lucario, can you use your aura to see if there is any False Smasher here?" the teen asks her.

"Yes, Josh." Lucario said. The Aura Pokémon closes her eyes and appendages were raised. She could see there are some creatures, but there was no False Smasher. "It's all clear." The Aura Pokémon said as she opens her eyes.

"Good." Josh said.

Samus jumps out of the hole and they went on to the next room.

Two Beam Sword Primids were waiting for them. Lucario easily defeated them with a single Force Palm.

"Is this it?" Josh muttered. "Or are we walking into a trap?"

Smash Mansion

Command Room

The alarm was going off.

"Megan, what's going on?" Jen asks her. Then she notices a light coming from Star Fox Assault. The light shot itself to Metroid: Zero Mission

Megan was typing on the computer to figure out what's going. "Bringing the screen up now." Megan said.

The screen appeared. A tail moved into the shadows.

"Who was that?" Jen wondered.

"I'm not sure." Megan said. "But I got a bad feeling about this."

Metroid: Zero Mission

They continued to move on and faced several problems; disgusting bugs and acids. Upon entering the next room, there was no debris or monsters in the room.

"Strange." Josh said. "There is no monsters in here."

"Keep your guard up." Samus told them. "They may attack us in here."

They didn't say anything for a few seconds. The four of them did a square formation and walks in the room. Nothing came at them yet. As Josh took another step, he heard something bouncing against the walls. "Wait a minuet." Josh said, making them stop. "Did you hear that?"

"Sounded like a gun." Greninja said.

"No." Lucario replied.

"It's a flash bang and knock out gas!" Josh yelled.

Several lights flashes in between them and releasing the knockout gas, knocking them all out.

Map Room

Josh opens his eyes and sat up. He was in a purple shield. "Damn it." Josh groans, rubbing an eye. "They caught us off guard with that attack. Huh? How did I end up in the map room?"

There was some sort of machine to his right and the door to his left. "How do I get out of this shield?" Josh wondered. He scans the shield with his visor. "A simple shot should do the trick." Josh smiled. He points his arm cannon to the shield and fired, destroying the shield.

Two Primids rushes through the door and notice the teen destroyed the shield.

"Hmph!" Josh grunted, firing two charge blasts at the Primids. He turns around and walks up to the machine to look at the screen. On the screen was a small section of the areas that they went. He saw Kraid's room flashing. "Kraid's room is flashing." Josh said. "That's got to be where the False Smasher FFS is being spawned. I'll have to regroup with the others." He turns around and exits the Map Room.

Room 13

Before Josh could contact them, he was shot by a purple energy blast. "Gah!" Josh yelled in pain.

"What? Is that all you got?" a voice asked from somewhere. The person steps out of the shadows. He was wearing a purple jacket, black pants, spike boots and purple gloves. He was wearing a black eye patch and his fur was grey and white.

"The leader of Star Wolf." Josh gritted his teeth, shaking the pain off. "Wolf O'Donnell."

"And also a commander." Wolf added.

"Commander?"

"That's right." Wolf answered. "I've been ordered to kill you, the dog and the frog. I'll make sure you won't interfere again."

"Hmph!" Josh points his arm canon at Wolf. The two of them fired their weapons at the same time.
