Scene 11: Powerless

In a dark room, a dimly lit figure kicks out a grate in the ceiling. The figure descends to the floor, revealing herself as Samus in her zero suit. She draws a paralyzer from her hip and readies it as she proceeds.

Samus: (in her head) Where did those cretins take my power suit, and more importantly, why? I guess I'll just have to find out soon enough.

(later)

Samus enters a dark room with her paralyzer at the ready. The door closes behind her, and as she proceeds further into the room, she notices an eerie green glow and a loud buzzing noise coming from the far corner of the room. She then sees a large machine with a glass cylinder at its center of mass. Inside the cylinder, a Pikachu screams in agony as lime green surges of energy run through his body and then dissipate, leaving him drained. After a few seconds, the surges reappear, and Pikachu again screams in agony.

Samus: (in her head) They must be using that Pikachu as a power source. I can't let this continue.

Samus engages her paralyzer's power whip mode and uses it to break open the cylinder, causing the machine to stop working and setting off an alarm. Pikachu slowly climbs out of the cylinder and collapses on the floor in exhaustion, and Samus scoops him up under her free arm. Doors open at all sides of the room, and a huge crowd of R.O.B.s appears, each unit identifying Samus and Pikachu as threats.

Samus: Come on, little guy. Let's get you out of here. Huh?

Pikachu crawls out from under Samus' arm, gets down on all fours, and charges his cheeks with electricity.

Pikachu: Pika pika pi, pika. Pikachu, pi pika pi pi pika pikachu pi1.

Samus: (in her head) Sounds like you have a score to settle with these robots. Well, who am I to stop you?

Pikachu: (as if ready for battle) Pi…

(later)

Samus and Pikachu enter a room filled with computer monitors and look around.

Pikachu: Pi, pika pika pika?

Samus notices one of the monitors displaying her power suit in a stasis field.

Samus: So, they're holding my power suit in the robotics bay. They must be using its designs for weapon upgrades. Pikachu, if you can understand me, there's something very important to me that we have to recover before we escape from this island. Are you with me?

Pikachu: Pika!

Samus: I'll take that as a yes.
