Bounty Hunter Data: Noxus

As he walked quietly down the deserted corridor, the Bounty Hunter known as Noxus quietly peeked around the corner, with his Judicator beam ready to fire at any given moment. After he saw that the hallway was clear, he backed up against the wall and silently reached the end, where he saw a fork in the corridors. He looked both ways, and saw a Royal Guard standing to the left. To the right, however, was a hallway with a large metal door at the end.

Noxus leapt out of his hiding spot and fired the Judicator, which hit the Royal Guard and froze him instantly. He then ran as fast as he could to the metal door, and, using his missile launcher, was able to blow it down to the ground. Luckily for him, however, there was nobody inside the Operating Room.

The Bounty Hunter looked inside and saw nothing but monitors, and one of them showed a Royal Guard talking to another man in a strange red robe. Noxus walked over to that monitor and turned up the volume, and he heard their conversation.

"So he's already infiltrated our defenses is what you're telling me?" the robed figure asked.

The Royal Guard answered immediately, "Not think sire, we know. This creature has already gotten passed sixteen Royal Guards, and we believe he may be into the Core Processor by now."

The robed man cursed in a foreign language, "Find him at once! Take a unit of Royal Guards with you and don't come back until his head is on my mantel! First we have Samus to deal with, and now this one? Do you have any information on him?" he asked, quickly changing his tone.

"We believe that he is of the Vhozon race, sire."

The robed creature thought for a moment, "Ah, an ice master you say? Interesting, then he will be freezing his victims with an ice weapon of some sort, although, I wouldn't expect this sort of behavior from a Vhozon…a Kriken perhaps, but not a Vhozon. See to this matter immediately Captain, and don't return without his head!" he finished, and stormed off.

Noxus quickly bolted out of the room and ran down several corridors he'd already been down. He knew what he had to get, but finding it was another problem altogether.

After running back outside into the Waste Grounds, Noxus saw a unit of Royal Guards coming his way. Each one armed with a Static Spear, Reflector Shield, and several Thermal Detonators which would be especially dangerous for Noxus. These Royal Guards were of the Gramora race, which were a race of scaly alien life forms. They wore shining silver body armor and tight helmets with a dark visor over them. When Noxus saw them approach, he loaded his Judicator and prepared for battle.

Although the Royal Guards hadn't seen Noxus yet, he was still at a great disadvantage. There were ten Royal Guards, and only one of him. So, quickly, he used his Space Jump to leap onto a floating platform above the Royal Guards in order to have a better shot at them. Unfortunately, however, one of the guards spotted him and they all started throwing Thermal Detonators on top of the platform.

Noxus quickly jumped off of the platform, and not a second too soon…for as soon as he jumped the platform exploded and Noxus was sent flying onto the ground.

The Royal Guards charged at Noxus with their Static Spears raised above their heads, the point facing the blue creature. In response, Noxus fired a round of missiles at the guards to try and slow at least some of them up.

When the Royal Guards saw the missiles coming, they raised their shields and avoided any damage they might've taken. They then proceeded with their attack. Noxus had no choice but to run.

As the Royal Guards chased him, Noxus ran and his behind a wall, but he was not well hidden. Noxus could here the guard's footsteps approaching. As the Royal Guards approached the wall, they stopped and clicked their spears, creating a static charge in the point of the spear. As Noxus heard one of them approach, he quickly jumped out of hiding and, using his long claw-like arm, sliced right through one of the guard's head and instantly killed him.

The remaining Royal Guards all threw their spears at Noxus, and six of the nine thrown hit Noxus in the chest and knocked him backwards. After the spears had entered Noxus' body, the static that the points held zapped Noxus from the inside and paralyzed him temporarily.

The Royal Guards then approached the Vhozon cautiously, not wanting to be tricked and killed as their comrade had been. Finally, when they saw that Noxus had indeed been knocked out, they moved in on their prey.

"Wait!" one of the Royal Guards ordered, "It would be easier to kill him if we just use our detonators and blow him to bits, wouldn't it? Why risk getting tricked into our own deaths, when we can just do this the easier, safer way?" he asked persuasively.

The other Royal Guards agreed, and all of them launched their detonators at Noxus and took off for cover. When they detonated, Noxus was sent soaring at least seventy feet into the air, and landed on a high perch on one of the control buildings.

The Royal Guards immediately took off in search of their kill, but what they didn't know that all they had waiting for them was an angry Vhozon.

On the building top, Noxus yanked the spears out of his chest and fumed. In his search for galactic morality, all he had gotten was hostility when he was expecting hospitality. All rationality in Noxus' being ceased to exist, and he prepared to kill the ones that he considered to be unworthy.

As the Royal Guards reached the roof where Noxus weakly stood his ground, they all pulled out more Thermal Detonators and clicked the launch button. They then threw their detonators in hopes of finishing the bounty hunter off.

Noxus leapt into the air a good fifty feet and landed behind the Royal Guards. He then charged his Judicator and quickly froze two guards at the same time. The other seven, while trying to avoid the explosion, picked up the Static Spears that Noxus had pulled out of his chest. Six of them got one, while one remained unarmed. Noxus saw this and fired a missile at the unarmed one, immediately obliterating him.

The six Royal Guards rushed forward at Noxus, who fired an uncharged Judicator blast. This one small ice shard launched out of the Judicator at incredible speeds and hit one of the guards in the visor of the helmet, instantly killing him. However, to the remaining guards' great dismay, the shot then ricocheted off of the visor and hit another one in the back of the head, killing him too.

The other Royal Guards turned around and one-by-one fell to their doom as the small ice shard bounced off of each and every one of them and then went on to the next one. With a single shot, Noxus had completely wiped out his foes. He then jumped off the building and continued his search for righteousness and truth.

After another hour of searching the facility, Noxus finally got where he needed to be: the Processor Core. This held the object that he longed to find. An object that would make him an idol in the eyes of his people.

Noxus entered the Processor Core, where he saw only the man he'd seen in the monitor earlier in the long red robe. He approached this creature and aimed his Judicator at him, prepared for anything.

The man smiled, "So you're the Vhozon who's been interfering with my plans for total galactic control, are you? Noxus, I presume? You're the top-ranked Vhozon Bounty Hunter in the galaxy, and I wasn't shocked when my spies told me you were in the facility."

"Don't kid with me Allivor, where are you keeping the Hailstone?" Noxus demanded fiercely. The Gramora Race had committed a terrible crime, and he was going to make sure they paid for it.

"You fool, do you honestly think it matters anymore? The Hailstone was exactly what the Gramorans needed in order to gain galactic dominance. We had the other essences, but your Hailstone was a precious piece we could not continue without, and there is no possibility that I am about to hand it over to you now!" Allivor laughed.

Noxus edged slightly forward, "I know that you aren't known for your fighting tactics Allivor, and I know that you'll fall easily enough to my Judicator." He said boldly.

Allivor smiled, "True, but it's my superior mind that pushes me forward!" he laughed, and snapped his fingers.

Instantly, ten holes in the ceiling opened up, and ten Royal Guards dropped out of them.

"You see Noxus, I have won yet again. Your pitiful Vhozon race is nothing compared to the power of the Gramorans! Royal Guards, kill him!" Allivor ordered.

Noxus had had enough, he was about to perform a technique that he had only used once against Samus in their previous battle for the Omega Cannon. It was called the Shadow Freeze, and, if preformed correctly, it could take all of the Gramorans out in one shot.

The Royal Guards pulled out their Static Spears, and turned them on, prepared to kill Noxus by any means.

Noxus charged his Judicator, which made the Royal Guards hesitant, "KILL HIM NOW!" Allivor roared impatiently.

Noxus aimed the Judicator at the floor while it was at full power, and then let loose. Immediately, the ice chunk that had been released crashed into the floor and made a huge indent in the ground. Afterwards, a layer of ice spread out from ice chunk in all directions, until it eventually reached the Royal Guards. When it came in contact with their feet, it instantly made its way up their bodies until their entire being was frozen solid.

Allivor paced backwards hesitantly, "This can't be, I can't be defeated! I am a tactical genius!" he cried, and he too was frozen.

Noxus stood proudly as he looked around the room. All the Gramorans were frozen, and within five minutes he had used his Power Beam to shatter them all to bits. The battle was over, but the search was not.

Noxus then entered the room in the very middle of the Processor Core, where he found a glowing blue sphere floating on a table in the middle of the room. He picked it up and examined it carefully, "This is it," he said to himself, "the Hailstone."

Planet Vho, a quiet and majestic planet on the outer rim of the galaxy, was home to the Vhozon Race. As Noxus landed his space pod on a small strip of land surrounded by water and snow, he carefully unwrapped the Hailstone he'd taken earlier, and held the precious device in the palm of his hand.

"Justice has been served," he said triumphantly, and slowly raised the hatch on the pod.

As he stepped out of the pod, he stood for a moment and took in the wonderful sights he beheld. Snow calmly dropped from the sky and landed gently upon the Hailstone, at which time it instantly melted away as if making way for another flake to fall upon. Noxus hadn't been to his home planet for years, and he considered himself lucky to be back after what he'd been through.

Noxus walked through the soft snow, and looked around. He saw no life whatsoever, and heard no noise. He continued to walk. Within several minutes, he made his way into a small cavern where he then preformed an ancient Vhozon ritual that opened the back of the cavern and made an entryway. Noxus went through.

It was very dark in the tunnel, yet Noxus wasted no time moving quickly through in order to get to the other end. When he got to the other side, his spirits were lifted higher than they'd ever been before.

Vhozon people of all ages and size were in this room at the end of the cave, which was bigger than an entire city. It was called the Underground City of Vho, and it was one of the only populated areas in the entire planet.

Noxus marched forward until he made his way to a large Vhozon with two even larger ones standing behind him. "What is your identification?" the one in the middle asked.

Without answering, Noxus lifted the Hailstone, and gently placed it in the palm of the other Vhozon's hand. As the Vhozon looked at it, his dark blue eyes glowed a bright sapphire, and Noxus was immediately recognized.

"How…?" the middle Vhozon stuttered.

Noxus stood patiently and silently.

The Vhozons all looked around until they'd spotted Noxus, and everybody gasped, "You're dead," the leader Vhozon said again.

Still, Noxus stood quietly.

Then, one of the larger Vhozons said, "You were killed…or so it was told. How are you still alive?"

"The answer to that," Noxus began, "is simple. I survived the race to the ultimate power, and have returned to face my failure. However, I have not come back empty-handed. Eons ago, a glorious treasure was said to have been stolen from the Vhozon race, and I have brought that treasure back. This will be the key to our race's success Elder," he finished.

The Elder stood in amazement, "Noxus, how did you find this? By what means did you retrieve it?" he asked cautiously, not wanting to offend the Bounty Hunter.

"Don't worry Elder, our people our safe, and justice has been brought to the galaxy. At least, as far as our people go, we are safe. However, I am not done yet, for Samus Aran still holds the key to ultimate destruction. As long as that weapon is in her possession, nobody is safe, not even with the protection the Hailstone offers us."

The Elder stood silently still.

Then, one of the larger Vhozons said, "Why leave? Our people are safe, and you have miraculously returned to us!"

Noxus became angry, and aimed his Judicator at the Vhozon, "Peace has been restored for us, but for how long? The Hailstone will offer you protection until I can defeat Samus in battle and retrieve the ultimate power that the galaxy's people whisper about. When I get that, the galaxy will truly be at a state of peace." He finished, lowering his weapon.

The Elder finally spoke, "Then go quickly Noxus, for if Samus is as dangerous as the stories tell, then we may not have even a day to spare. Stories of how she single-handedly defeats Space Pirate armies and monsters that are so terrifying that no other warrior would dare even attempt to attack them are everywhere, and if they're true, then I fear for your safety."

Noxus nodded, turned around, and took several steps forward. "I will return alive, with the ultimate weapon in my hands," he promised, and left the cavern where the Vhozons were gathered.

The blue Bounty Hunter ran through the snow, until eventually he reached his pod. He opened up the hatch and hopped in, and then quickly blasted off into the darkness of space.

Noxus studied his radars very carefully, and noticed that there were high concentrations of radiation coming from a planet called Mag, where ninety percent of the planet was covered in lava.

"If that's where Samus is," Noxus said to himself, "then I may have more difficulty than I originally thought."

There was a good reason for this statement as well. Noxus was a Vhozon, a creature of ice. Fire and lava were some of their only weaknesses, and since there was only mostly lava on the planet, he would have an extremely difficult time making his way around it, let alone defeating Samus.

Nonetheless, he changed course to Mag, where he would hopefully be able to finally restore peace to the galaxy.

Within two hours, Noxus had arrived at Mag, and slowly made his first steps out of his pod. He looked around and saw dozens of lava falls that were at least a hundred feet high. They poured into a stream of lava that had a very quick and powerful current. In front of him, a narrow stone pathway made its way to where the river ended. And, although Noxus was weak against the lava, he still thought it was a magnificent sight to behold.

He made his way forward, until he eventually reached the area where the river came to a halt and saw a ledge on the side of a cliff. There, he saw a lone figure standing upon it, and knew instantly that he'd found his target.

Noxus raised and charged the Judicator, and prepared to fire, when all of a sudden a huge molten fireball came speeding towards him.

Noxus was hit and instantly thrown backwards by the shot, and was badly wounded as well. He looked up and saw the figure leap off of the ledge and on to the round end of the pathway where he lay. It was only then that he realized that the figure he'd seen was not Samus at all.

The creature was made up mostly of rocks, or so it seemed, and had large orange crystals bulging out of his shoulders, back, and even his stomach. His eyes were narrow, and glowed a bright ruby red. Noxus instantly recognized the weapon the creature had as the Magmaul, the sworn enemy of the Vhozons. It was able to gather particles in the air, and form a rock solid ball within the blast cannon. It then used extreme heat waves to heat up the rock, and even go so far as to start to melt it. After it was fired, the rock would catch on fire because of the sudden jolt, and anything the Magmaul hit would be instantly incinerated.

Noxus stumbled to his feet, but couldn't raise his weapon. He then looked into the eyes of the creature that had hit him, "You've beaten me with a single shot. Go ahead, destroy me. I've failed at my mission." He said with dignity, knowing that if he didn't return to his home with the ultimate weapon in his possession, then he would be executed anyways because of the extreme penalties that Vhozons faced for failure.

The creature remained still, "You…hunter? Find…Samus?" he stuttered.

Noxus replied, "Samus? Yes, I was looking for Samus…but it's clear that I'm not going to be able to get passed you as long as you're holding that Magmaul. So, finish me off."

The creature looked confused, "You want…kill? Kill Samus?" he asked in a primitive voice.

Noxus didn't know why the creature wasn't finishing him off, "To be honest, I don't know. When I originally took this mission upon myself, I thought I was going to destroy Samus and gain possession of her ultimate weapon she carries. But then I wondered: how do I even stand a chance? When I tried to defeat Samus before she had the weapon, she beat me…now that she has it, how am I supposed to win?"

"Samus good…she not bad…" he said again.

Noxus managed to slowly raise his arm without the creature noticing, preparing to fire, but still wanting time to recover to make sure he could shoot the creature with complete accuracy.

"How do you know this?" Noxus demanded.

"She…she save me…"

"She saved you from what?"

"Pirates," is all the creature said, and immediately he knew that he was referring to Space Pirates.

"Samus saved you from Space Pirates?" Noxus asked. Then he thought for a moment, and asked, "What is your name?"

"Spire," he said.

Noxus instantly jumped backwards and aimed the Judicator at the creature's face, and fired forward. Spire was knocked on his back and roared with fury.

"You're one of the others!" Noxus shouted ferociously, "You're one of those hunters that were trying to take control of the ultimate weapon for your own personal use!"

Spire slowly got up, "No…I not bad!" he said angrily, yet honestly.

Noxus charged his Judicator and fired forward again, and froze Spire solid in ice, leaving only his head unfrozen.

"You make Spire angry!" he roared terrifyingly. Noxus hesitated and took several steps backwards.

Spire's body glowed a bright orange, and the ice was shattered. He then lifted his Magmaul and shot another fireball at Noxus.

Noxus shot a blast from the Judicator at the fireball, but the fireball melted his ice shard away and came forward, forcing Noxus to jump over it.

Spire leapt forward and slammed Noxus against the head with his mighty fist, sending Noxus skidding backwards several yards. The rock-like creature then raised his Magmaul and prepared to make the finishing blow, but Noxus was not about to give up.

Noxus quickly got to his feet and jumped in the air and landed behind Spire.

Spire turned around and fired a charged Magmaul shot, while Noxus retaliated with a charged Judicator shot. The ball of ice and the ball of fire collided, and caused a large popping noise and a flash of white light.

When the light dimmed, Noxus fired three shots from the Judicator at Spire, which knocked him down. He then switched his weapon to the Power Beam, and charged it until it reached maximum power.

Noxus fired forward, and hit Spire square in the chest, sending him flying into the pool of molten hot lava all around them.

For five minutes, Noxus stood still, and waited to see if the fight was truly over. When Spire didn't come back, he knew that victory was his.

"A good warm-up," he said coolly, and made his way back to his pod so that he could find Samus and see if he was worthy of possessing the ultimate power in the galaxy.

Several weeks passed before Noxus was able to get a reading on his scopes of an extremely high measure of radioactive activity coming from a nearby planet.

"That must be Samus," Noxus thought, "but why so much radioactive activity? That can't be just from here," he panicked. He suspected that Samus had used the ultimate weapon.

Noxus landed his pod on a planet called Oldera, a small desert planet where he expected to find Samus.

Immediately after impact, Noxus ejected himself from the pod, loaded his weapons, and sprinted off at full speed. What he saw horrified him.

Noxus looked down from a perch and saw hundreds of Krikens all storming down a canyon where a long figure stood upon a ship. Noxus immediately recognized the lone figure as Samus Aran.

The blue Bounty Hunter watched in horror as the Krikens made their way to the center of the canyon where Samus stood. Noxus knew that if the Krikens managed to gain control of the ultimate weapon, then he would never be able to secure it for himself.

Noxus looked around, and saw six Krikens standing at the ledge of the canyon, all of them staring down into the middle of the canyon. Then, one of the Krikens raised his arm, and Noxus knew that the Kriken was about to fire at Samus.

"Trace," he hissed, and leapt down from the perch and landed a few yards away from the six Krikens.

As Trace prepared to fire, Noxus immediately fired his Judicator and knocked Trace's hand away and knocked him off balance.

Noxus slowly marched forward, his Judicator ready to fire at any given moment. However, Trace's Elite Guards were protecting their leader, each with deadly weapons of their own.

Trace pushed them back and confronted Noxus himself, "Noxus, you fool…you just threw your entire life away. Do you realize that?" the Kriken youth asked egotistically.

Noxus had had a suspicion that the Krikens would be after the ultimate weapon as well, especially after seeing Spire on Mag. He wondered how many other Bounty Hunters were now trying to seize this ultimate weapon.

He charged his Judicator to full power, and fired at Trace, hoping to kill him quickly and plan his attack on the rest of the Krikens. Trace, however, had other plans.

The Kriken Leader retaliated with a shot from the Imperialist, a powerful sniper riffle that was given only to the most elite Kriken warriors. Trace's blast tore through Noxus' Judicator shot, and Noxus was forced to leap into the air above the blast.

While in midair, Noxus fired a shot from the Judicator again at Trace in a futile attempt to kill his greatest rival. For years, the Krikens and Vhozons had collided forces, which is why the Vhozon race's population was so limited. The Krikens had wiped out all but fourteen percent of the original population, and Noxus didn't know if he stood any chance against one of the strongest Krikens alive.

Trace dodged the bullet nimbly, and aimed his Imperialist upward at Noxus, who would be easy prey in the air.

The shot from the Judicator hit one of Trace's Elite Guards instead, and after killing him, bounced off his face and hit Trace in the back and knocked him down to Noxus' great fortune.

Just when Noxus thought he was in the clear to finish Trace off, he saw the four remaining Elite Guards of Trace's fire charged Power Beam shots that all hit Noxus in the chest and sent him flying backwards into the sandy ground. He was badly wounded from the blasts, and in addition, he still hadn't healed fully from the Magmaul shot that Spire had thrown at him. Noxus was very weak, and was furious at himself for being reduced to a victim of the Krikens.

As Noxus watched Trace get to his feet with the help of his Elite Guards, his heart sank as the Kriken Leader aimed the Imperialist at Noxus' head for one final blast.

Noxus closed his eyes and tried with all his might to get to his feet, but he was so weak that not a muscle in his body still responded. And just as Trace, prepared to fire, something happened that would save his life.

An explosion occurred in the canyon where the Krikens were invading Samus' camp. However, this was not just any explosion, this was one of the biggest explosions Noxus had ever witnessed. The smoke went miles in all directions, and Noxus couldn't see an inch in front of him.

Noxus didn't hear anything for several minutes, but when the smoke cleared up just barely enough so that he could see into the canyon, he saw Samus standing triumphantly with hundreds of Kriken bodies sprawled out all over the place, dead. There were, however, some survivors who retreated from Samus, and within seconds were out of sight.

"The ultimate power…the Omega Cannon…there's no other explanation. No weapon could create an explosion of that magnitude!" Noxus shouted weakly, coughing all the while.

Noxus forced himself to his knees, and looked over as Samus raised her Arm Cannon, was she preparing to finish him off? But, she was not facing Noxus, but slightly to the left of him. She let loose a powerful shot that tore through the smoke and, when it came in contact with its target, Noxus heard a Kriken scream. Was it Trace? He had to find out.

Using all the strength left in his body, Noxus stumbled to his feet and limped slightly forward, edging through the smoke until he'd reached an area where he could see through. He saw Trace, lying weakly on his back with the Elite Guards in a panic.

The Vhozon then turned and saw Samus leap from her spot in the canyon all the way to the area where the Krikens were standing. She was right in front of him.

The Elite Guards all raised their weapons and charged them, preparing to fire at Trace's command. However, Noxus knew that he had to take action.

Mustering up barely enough strength to lift his weapon, Noxus fired a blast from the Judicator, which hit one Elite Guard in the head, instantly killing him, and then bounced off and killed another one.

Noxus limped to Samus' side, where he breathed heavily, not knowing how much help he'd be to her. Then, something horrible happened.

The remaining two Elite Guards raised their weapons and fired at Samus and hit her in the helmet, causing her heavy damage and sending her flying backwards.

Noxus, now burning with an intense hatred for the Krikens, charged his Judicator and prepared to fire. However, a beam of red light tore through the air and hit Noxus' Judicator, immediately destroying it.

Noxus, caught off guard by the blast, fell to his back.

"Fool, do you honestly think you can compete with me?" Trace sneered at Noxus, then turning his attention the badly injured Samus.

Just when Noxus thought all hope was lost, he saw an incoming Galactic Federation ship that fired a huge green electro laser that blasted the last two Elite Guards into a pulp.

Then, another small blast came from the GF ship that knocked the Imperialist out of Trace's hand. Noxus couldn't believe his luck, he might actually live to take the Omega Cannon from Samus and deliver it back home.

As the GF ship sped forward, it fired two massive blasts that wiped Trace out completely, incinerating every cell in his body.

Noxus looked around and saw at least a dozen other GF ships wiping out all of the Krikens that had not been killed by Samus earlier. Soon enough, the ship that had taken Trace out landed right beside Noxus and Samus.

Several Galactic Federation troops came out of the ship and aided the Bounty Hunters to their feet. One of them asked, "Samus, are your systems operating normally? Is there anything you need?"

Samus rubbed her head weakly, and shook it, brushing the GF Troops off of her. She then looked to Noxus, who had also refused help from the Galactic Federation.

"Commander, board your ship. I'll be with you in a moment," Samus ordered, and the troops all did as they were told.

Noxus looked directly at Samus, unarmed and badly injured. He knew that he had no chance of defeating her now.

"Why are you here?" she demanded furiously, gripping her Arm Cannon.

Noxus told his story: "I was sent by my people to take the ultimate power…the Omega Cannon…they wanted it out of the possession of evildoers and wanted to keep it safe. They didn't want lawbreakers to possess a power that could wipe out entire civilizations in one shot, so they sent me to take it by force. The more I heard about you, however, the more I began to think that perhaps you weren't the monster that my people claimed you to be. However, the choice is yours. I am unarmed and have not enough energy left in my body to escape. You can kill me easily enough."

Samus lowered her weapon, "The Omega Cannon is the most powerful weapon ever created. Its powers are virtually limitless, and I can assure you that I have no intentions of using it for reasons other than to maintain peace in this galaxy."

Noxus couldn't help but believe her, and he was relieved to see her lower her weapons, "If I return empty-handed, I will be executed by the laws of my people." He said quietly.

Samus remained silent for a moment, then said, "I'm sorry there's not more I can do for you Noxus. However, I can't give you the Omega Cannon, only I have galactic authority to possess such a power."

Noxus clutched his stomach, "Of course…there's not much I can do is there? I'll simply have to go into exile. I'll find a way to survive, you must not worry about me. You're this galaxy's savior, and you alone hold the power to maintain peace. This has been made painfully clear to me in the past months as I've faced challenges such as yourself who have shown me how limited my powers really are," he finished.

Samus didn't say a word, and loaded onto the Galactic Federation ship. As Noxus watched it take off. Strangely enough, as he watched his key to survival take off, he couldn't help but feel he'd met a new ally. He somehow had created an everlasting bond between Samus and himself. A bond of trust that he knew he could rely on if he needed to.

For the first time in his life, Noxus was seeing clearly, and as he slowly moved onwards to his space pod, he could only imagine where destiny would take him next.
