Me: Hello and welcome to Apocalypse Crossing end of day's third what if chapter
Leon: Great, another reality is going to be infected with your idiocy
Me: yes it is
Leon: So what is this chapter called?
Me: It is called
What if there was a third Samoid?
"And that is how Master Ryan saved Leon from the zombies using only his wits and a large medium sized spoon" Samoid 2.0 explained to the 'enthralled' listeners who, like her, sat around the large dining table within my mansion
"Now he's got them telling the story" Leon muttered angrily
"You'd think with all the actual adventures we've had we'd think of a better one to tell" Kid Cat mused
"You'd think so wouldn't you?" Agent 38 asked rhetorically "And yet somehow we still end up at the mercy of the large medium sized spoon story"
"It gets worse, I heard Ryan mentioning he's going to base his next book upon it" Agent S shuddered
"I just don't get it, I have an I.Q of 2803 and yet somehow he's the famous author" Genesis sighed
"That's because Ryan based his book on a true story" Susie explained
"It was only loosely based on our adventure" Leon pointed out "Unless that is one of you recalls Iron man fighting Wesker"
"That would have been cool" Kid Cat laughed
"It would have been less traumatising" Samoid added
"What is taking him so long?" Agent 38 asked angrily "I mean seriously we throw him a welcome back party and he is late"
"To be fair we funded the party with Master Ryan's money and we're holding it in his mansion so I think he can be as late as he wants" Samoid 2.0 argued
"That maybe how you wish to look at it but I'll stick to outrage thank you very much" Agent 38 shouted
"Where'd Ryan go anyway?" Matt asked
"Matt... when'd you get here?" Leon asked
"I was the first one here, excluding the robot things and Ryan 2 of course" Matt replied "Anyway where'd Ryan go?"
"I have a name you know" Genesis shouted angrily
"I know... I just don't remember it" Matt replied "Anyway where'd Ryan go?"
"Master Ryan went on another one of his searches for mythical, mystical, magical, high tech or alien artefacts" Samoid replied "He went to a region which he had intended to search before the 'team bonding incident' occurred, he has been gone for about two months now"
"Both Samoid and I offered to accompany him but he insisted we remain here with Master Genesis and run Samoid tech, though the amount of time he has been gone worries both Samoid and I, and unfortunately we haven't been able to contact him" Samoid 2.0 added
"Did he of little common sense mention what he was after?" Leon asked
"No" Genesis sighed "Unfortunately my crazy creator insists upon an air of mystery when it comes to the 'artefact game', I'm not even allowed to look at them because of that 'incident', while he's gone I'm tasked with up keeping his estate, fulfilling his media appearances for Samoid tech, basically being him... it is quite an arduous job that he tasks me with and all without a thought for my feelings, and he of course is completely ignorant of this, even after that 'incident'"
"Aww does poor wittle Genesis have daddy issues?" Agent 38 asked mockingly
"Firstly he's not my father, thank Majora, secondly my I.Q is more than eleven times higher than yours so the very idea that you'd attempt to mock me is laughable" Genesis spat
"Doesn't change the fact that you're not even a one year old" Agent 38 laughed
"Says Wesker's puppy or lapdog to be more precise" Genesis mocked
"I'd rather be a lapdog than a wannabe Ryan" Agent 38 spat
"That's it" Genesis shouted as he jumped across the table, tackled Agent 38 to the ground and began to exchange blows with him
"We should do something" Kid Cat suggested
"No... this amuses me" Leon replied... just before Agent 38 and Genesis dragged him into the fight "You can stop it now"
"No... this amuses me" Kid Cat replied sarcastically... just before Agent 38, Genesis and Leon dragged him, Susie, Matt and Agent S into the fight
"Humans... and cat... and squirrel" Samoid and Samoid 2.0 stated in unison before they too were dragged into the fight
"Well well well, a fight and I wasn't invited" I muttered as I entered the room
"Ryan" the various combatants stated in unison as they stopped their fighting
"Don't stop now... this amuses me" I shouted just before I was swarmed by a group of people, robots and animals who were very glad to see me
"It's good to have you back Master Ryan" Samoid's, both 2.0 and original, stated in unison
"I suppose your return is pleasing" Agent 38 muttered
"And thus the effort of playing the fool is no longer mine to bare" Genesis mused
"Good to have you back buddy" Leon said happily "So what'd you get?"
"That is an excellent question and thus deserves an excellent response" I replied "You can come in now"
Less than a second after my command it entered.
"Is tha-" Leon began
"Another Samoid?" Both Samoid's shouted angrily in unison
"Didn't you learn anything last time?" Leon asked angrily
"Yes actually, I did" I retorted cockily "Now if you would be so kind as to let me explain"
Leon said nothing but motioned me to continue
"Well, it was the eleventh day of my search and I had finally found what I was looking for, another secret base, this one, like ours, had lab equipment, various books and of course power suits, bring it in MK3" I explained and commanded
"Affirmative Master Ryan" Samoid MK3 replied as it brought in another power suit
"This one had its own A.I and seemed intent on destroying me, fortunately I was able to quickly programme MK3 with the same A.I Samoid 2.0 has and together we beat this suit, I then deactivated it, turned the base into a compact cube and left with MK3 carrying the power suit, then I made my way here and now it is now and that's it... MK3, take that power suit to the vault within my secret base"
"Affirmative Master Ryan" Samoid MK3 replied as it picked up the other power suit and made its way towards the vault
"So what are you going to do with Samoid MK3?" Samoid 2.0 asked bitterly
"Oh don't worry this chapter won't be just a renamed version of the last" I replied as the anvil fell "Hopefully now you two have gained an ounce of maturity and will be able to resist the urge to kill each other to attain the prestigious title of my favourite"
"I see... so you're big idea of solving the fact that you've basically replaced me... again... is to just say deal with it?" Samoid asked angrily
"Perhaps an ounce of maturity is too much to ask" I muttered "It worked out in the end did it not?"
"Only after a lot of emotional trauma" Samoid 2.0 replied angrily "I mean seriously, how'd you think we'd react?"
"I just don't see the problem" I replied
"Probably because you were too busy going on about all those 'memories' the first time round" Leon spat
"I'm sorry were you involved in this conversation?" I asked angrily
"No, a bit like you last chapter" Leon replied smugly as he got hit by an anvil
"Well I'm sorry for having problems in my own life" I shouted
"Problems? Mental problems maybe, but you had no problems then, you just kept going on and on about those memories so I had to pick up the slack, as usual, and solve the problem with your clingy girlfriends" Leon shouted angrily
"Clingy girlfriends!?" Samoid and Samoid 2.0 shouted angrily in unison
"Sorry, too close to the truth?" Leon asked mockingly
"Well excuse me for showing emotion you emotionless monster" Samoid yelled
"Yeah it's not our fault you're dead inside" Samoid 2.0 added
"Just because I don't throw temper tantrums doesn't mean I'm emotionless" Leon retorted "I just thought you Samoid and Ryan threw enough for the group"
"Cause you never lose your temper" Kid Cat said sarcastically
"What's that suppose to mean?" Leon asked
"You have anger issues" Kid Cat replied "You keep your emotions bottled up and then release them randomly in angry fits"
"No I don't" Leon replied
"How many times have you stood there and took Ryan's idiocy and then just attacked him?" Kid Cat asked rhetorically "I mean you're like a light switch, you're either on or off, there's no middle ground"
"Ryan's idiocy?" I asked angrily
"Sorry do you need me to dumb it down?" Kid Cat asked mockingly
"Oh cause it takes so much intelligence to beat up villains" I laughed sarcastically "You've never had a good idea, heck if it weren't for me and Leon you'd still be in Kirby Road punching zombies to death and wondering when someone else was going to do the thinking for you"
"How dare you, you psychotic simpleton" Kid Cat shouted "If it weren't for me you'd be dead"
"No, if it weren't for you nobody would be dead" I retorted
"H-how dare you" Kid Cat spat "How dare you bring up that tragedy for a mere insult"
"Yeah you can't just make light of all those deaths" Agent S added
"Sorry, you're on Kid Cat's side?" I interrupted "Last time I checked you were trying to kill him and anyone else you saw for that matter"
"Y-you kn-" Agent S began before she was interrupted
"Oh yeah it was the virus's fault" Leon interrupted "You know you were in complete control, you just wanted to take your anger out on something"
"Well if that isn't the pot calling the kettle black" I mocked
"Shut up" Leon shouted
"What, too much?" I asked mockingly "Going to punch me now?"
"I'll punch you in a minute" Kid Cat shouted
"Well I suppose that's all you can do" I laughed "Anything else would tire out your two brain cells"
"Because the 'large medium sized spoon' story is truly the work of genius'" Kid Cat mocked
"I'm smart enough to be a published author" I retorted
"No you're not" Genesis argued "You only had a story because it actually happened and I read that book, if you could call it that, and it was filled with grammatical errors, spelling errors and plot holes"
"Oh look Ryan junior is standing up to his dad" Agent 38 laughed
"Shut up lapdog" Genesis spat "Why are you even here? You tried to kill these guys multiple times"
"Because father o yours invited me" Agent 38 replied "Anyway why are you here? Is it because Ryan needs a backup? Because that's all you're really good for"
"How dare you, I am far superior to that simpleton" Genesis shouted
"Far superior? You self righteous jerk, you wouldn't even be here if it wasn't for me" I spat "Sometimes I wonder why I even made you"
"You pompous twit, you made me because it amused you, not for my benefit, I owe you nothing" Genesis responded
"While we're on the topic sometimes I wonder why I even saved you Ryan" Kid Cat spat
"You said so yourself Kid Cat 'the day you escaped and all this started... I swore to myself that I would save everyone I could from suffering your fate... even if the very people I'm trying to save hate me as much as you do'" Samoid retorted
"Of course the lapdog jumps to defend its master" Kid Cat responded
"How dare you" Samoid shouted "Should I not defend someone I care about? Maybe I should take a page from your book and blast them into a bio tube full of T-virus"
"You lousy bi-" Kid Cat began
"Good job you don't care about being hated, otherwise you'd be very depressed" I laughed "And besides 38's the only lapdog here"
"Oh get off your high horse you egotistical moron, I may of worked for Wesker but at least I could fight my own battles, I didn't need Robocop, jerk cop or some super sword to help me" Agent 38 shouted
"You're right you never need help, except when you get trapped in Kirby Road and are forced to beg for my help" I yelled
"Yo-" Agent 38 began
"What do you mean jerk cop?" Leon asked angrily
"You're a jerk and a cop, it's pretty self explanatory, at least for people with an average I.Q" Agent 38 replied
"At least I'm smart enough to escape Kirby Road by myself" Leon retorted
"Oh because you had no help whatsoever" Susie said sarcastically
"From you, no, you're useless" Leon replied
"I am not" Susie shouted
"Yes you are" I argued "You were dead weight basically, or you would have been if we didn't save you every ten minutes"
"Because you never needed saving" Agent S shouted "Except for that whole Majora fiasco"
"Which was caused by all your ineptness" I replied
"Because running away from Wesker and crying is truly an amazing act" Agent S laughed
"At least I didn't have to rely on regeneration to survive" I laughed "How many times should you have died anyway?"
"How many times would you have died if it weren't for us?" Kid Cat asked angrily
"Zero times, because if it weren't for you two none of this would have happened" I replied
"How dare you" Kid Cat and Agent S spat
"Sorry does the truth hurt? At the end of day all those deaths are in your hands" I spat
"At least their single mindedness never pitted anyone against each other" Leon shouted
"Oh sure let's all blame Ryan" I yelled
"Actually sir, he has a point" Samoid stated
"If you had noticed the situation things may have not have escalated as quickly as they did" Samoid 2.0 added
"Hey there's another Samoid here now, why don't you blow it up before it becomes my 'favourite'" I shouted "After all we all know that if someone gets in your way the best course of action is to rant about it and then try to kill them in an airport bar"
"How dare you, all my months of devoted work and this is what I get?" Samoid 2.0 shouted
"I'm not surprised, despite lying to myself and others I've always known you were a jerk 'Master' Ryan" Samoid spat
"You lou-" I began
"I'm surprised you can remember that much" Leon mused "Considering how wrapped up you were in those 'other realities'"
"How da-" I began
"That is when you're not putting on a mask and trying to kill us" Kid Cat added
"Now ju-" I began
"Or destroying space ships and those within them" Agent S added
"Or causing the moon to crash to earth" Susie added
"Or replacing allies" Samoid added
"Or ignoring them completely" Samoid 2.0 added
"Or using people as your personal backup" Genesis added
"Or threatening to kill allies you came to save" Agent 38 added
"O-" Matt began
"Or treating the whole zombie apocalypse like a game, treating the deaths of others like a joke or turning the whole event into a book for your own gain" Leon spat "And to think you dare point out our faults"
"W-we-well...well... you're right... thanks for the party... it's great to be back... good night" I sighed as, holding back tears, I left the room and made my way to bed
You could cut the tension in the room with a knife, or the Master sword, it was filled with anger, frustration, hatred and other such emotions
"Maybe... maybe we went too far" Agent S sighed
Now that the tension had lowered slightly the others truly considered what they had said, to myself and each other, and realised how awfully they had treated each other
"You're... you're right" Leon agreed "We were horrible to Ryan and each other"
Murmurs of agreement filled the room
"I can't believe the things I said to him" Samoid stated
"I know what you mean" Samoid 2.0 agreed
"It's all true you know" A voice argued
"Who said that?" Kid Cat asked
"I did" The voice replied, the voice in question belonged to none other than Samoid MK3 "I heard all of it, and I agree"
"You agree?" Susie asked
"Master Ryan gave me an update with all of your memories during our two month excursion" Samoid MK3 stated as it pointed at the other two Samoid's "And quite frankly you're all right, he is a jerk"
"But we didn't mean that" Genesis argued
"Oh you did, you can blame it on the heat of the moment but deep down each of you meant every word you muttered, really it's a surprise Master Ryan has any friends" Samoid MK3 argued
"Aren't you supposed to be severely loyal to Ryan?" Agent 38 asked
"Oh I am" Samoid MK3 replied "I'd sacrifice myself to save him if I had to, but only because my directive states so, unlike those two fan girls I feel no emotional attachment to Ryan whatsoever"
"How could you say that?" Samoid 2.0 asked "He gave you a personality"
"There's no reason to be that cold towards him" Samoid stated
"You said so yourself Samoid, he's a jerk, actually thinking about it Ryan probably deserves friends like you, nice to him one minute, reduce him to tears the next" Samoid MK3 laughed
"You're a real jerk, you know that?" Agent 38 asked
"Am I? Guess that's down to you guys then" Samoid MK3 chuckled "After all my A.I is adaptable, I based my personality on what I hear and all I've heard are Master Ryan's negative points, as well as all of yours, so the way I'm talking about Master Ryan is the same way you just talked about him, all eight of you saying such horrible things to Master Ryan all at once, perhaps I should check on him lest he put himself out of our misery... no, not a 'considerable threat', not my problem"
And with that Samoid Mk3 took its leave
"Is that really what we were like to Master Ryan?" Samoid asked to no one in particular
"I... I think so" Samoid 2.0 admitted ashamedly
"We shou-" Leon began before all the lights within my mansion turned off "Wh-what just happened?"
"A power out I surmise" Genesis replied "The power should be back on in several minutes
"We should try and find Ryan" Leon mused "Jerk or not, Samoid MK3 has a point, in his current frame of mind Ryan just mi-"
"You don't really think?" Agent S asked
"You never know, that kid is prone to mood swings" Leon replied "We'll split up and find him
And so my 'friends' set out through the dark mansion in search of me, after several minutes the lights turned back on and one of them found... me.
"Master Ryan" Samoid 2.0 screamed
Hearing this all the others ran towards Samoid 2.0
"What's wro- oh my Majora" Leon gasped
"H-he-he's" Samoid stuttered
"Dead" Genesis said solemnly
"H-he-he can't be dead" Kid Cat stuttered
But I was, my body was covered in various cuts, bullet wounds, scorch marks, there was no questioning it... I was dead.
"What's going on here?" Samoid MK3 asked in an uninterested tone
"R-Ryan's dead" Agent S replied tearfully
"Oh, is that all?" Samoid MK3 asked in an even more uninterested tone
"How can you be so cold?" Susie asked angrily
"I'm a machine, kind of mandatory" Samoid MK3 replied
"I can't believe he's gone" Agent 38 sighed
"I can't believe he'd take his own life" Genesis sighed
"Really? For someone so smart you are REALLY stupid" Samoid MK3 laughed
"You said so yourself, 'he'll probably put himself out of our misery" Genesis shouted
"Using his own gun, sword and arm cannon?" Samoid MK3 asked rhetorically
"What do you mean?" Matt asked
"Look at the corpse, he has cut marks, bullet wounds and scorch marks, the cuts and bullet wounds are obvious but the scorch marks could only come from an arm cannon, or an energy blast" Samoid MK3 explained
"Are you implying I did this?" Samoid 2.0 asked angrily
"Of course not you idiotic love struck lapdog, even if it weren't for your sickening admiration for 'Master' Ryan stopping you from even thinking of doing such a thing, you wouldn't have been able to do this anyway due to restriction 2" Samoid MK3 replied "Samoid on the other ha-"
"How dare you even imply that I murdered Master Ryan" Samoid spat as she tackled Samoid MK3 into a wall and held... her by her neck "I am devastated that this has happened, that the last time I spoke to Master Ryan was to call him a jerk, that now I'll never be able to apologise for the horrible things I said and that my best and first friend is now dead, that you would even sugge-"
"A beautiful speech, truly heart warming, but I must say you have quite a temper there don't you? Is that it? Did being replaced for a second time anger you? Was it just too much? Is that why you killed him?" Samoid MK3 asked mockingly as she removed Samoid's hand from her neck
"You... you... you bi-" Samoid began
"After all I have a file here that proves this isn't the first time you've really lost your temper" Samoid MK3 interrupted as she played a file
"Data log 381184, I can't believe he replaced me, I protected him from zombies and saved him on numerous occasions and this is the thanks I get? I swear sometimes I feel like punching through his skull. Terminate recording" The file blared
"That is your voice isn't it? I see you decided against punching through his skull though, why? Was that not enough for what he did to you?" Samoid MK3 asked
"Samoid... you didn't really... kill him... did you?" Leon asked
"I-" Samoid began
"Now, Now Leon, you're not completely innocent either" Samoid MK3 scolded
"What's that supposed to mean?" Leon asked angrily
"See, you're the one with the temper, of course you rarely show it, you keep it bottled up then release it all in one go, thinking about it, you must of built up a lot of anger toward Master Ryan back in the dining room, maybe it was too much, maybe you found Master Ryan, maybe you lost it, maybe you killed him" Samoid MK3 mockingly suggested "And before you say you lack an arm cannon, there's a power suit downstairs you could have easily used"
"Samoid MK3 has a point it could have been eith-" Kid Cat began
"I do appreciate the support Kid Cat but you're not above suspicion" Samoid MK3 interrupted "Maybe you thought, 'Ryan knows my deep dark secret, that I caused all those deaths and he is really angry at me, what if he tells the world?', so then you confront him, he says he'll tell everyone and, just like in the Umbrella lab all those months ago, you panic and blast him, but Master Ryan isn't lucky enough to crash into a bio tube full of T-Virus, so he dies. Now is that out of the realm of possibility? After all a blast like that would cause scorch marks, would it not?"
"B-b-but then why would he be covered in bullet wounds and cuts?" Kid Cat asked in a panicked tone
"To cover your tracks, after all anyone of theses wounds could be the original one that killed Master Ryan, but if for instance there were only scorch masks the list of suspects would dwindle, so the murderer, whoever he or she is, caused other wounds to insure everyone was a suspect" Samoid MK3 replied
"So you're saying that Samoid, Leon or Kid Cat killed Ryan then covered his corpse in other types of wounds to implicate everyone?" Agent S asked
"Well yes, but it's not necessarily any of those three" Samoid MK3 replied
"Well who else could it be?" Agent S asked
"You for starters, after all, like Kid Cat, you caused all those deaths, so you could've killed Ryan to stop him from revealing your deep dark secret" Samoid MK3 replied
"You can't honestly think I would kill Ry-" Agent S began
"Why not? You killed dozens of people back at Kirby Road for no reason whatsoever, so I find it quite believable that you'd kill someone you were just very angry at and who knows your greatest shame" Samoid MK3 interrupted
"I... I..." Agent S stuttered
"I suppose I'm the next victim of your Sherlockian accusations" Genesis stated dryly
"Well I might as well do it now, ever since that little 'incident' we've all known you had issues with our 'beloved' creator, more so than those sycophantic Samoid's, to him you were but a backup, he never treated you like a real person, heck you're basically his son and I bet he never even said he loved you" Samoid MK3 laughed "So while those tinplated twits did odd jobs for Master Ryan and were lavished with affection, you lived his life for him on a regular basis and barely got thanks. And the lacklustre love you received isn't your only motive, you may have killed him because he robbed you of the chance to have a life, sure you could work for C.O.M.E.T.S, but you could never have a real life, you were only there for, as you said, Master Ryan's amusement. Or maybe you killed him to get his life, all good motives really, so which was it?"
Genesis remained silent and simply glared at Samoid MK3
"Not talking? Fair enough, as a member of C.O.M.E.T.S you know you have the right to remain silent, so you just go ahead and use that right for all it's worth, a bit like how Master Ryan used you" Samoid MK3 laughed "Now who's motive should I explain next? Ah yes Agent 38, well yours is just obvious, you are, or at least were, an Umbrella employee, you killed people you didn't even know on a regular basis, so why not kill that annoying guy that constantly mocked you? We all know your approval rating for Master Ryan was low, heck you wouldn't even tolerate him if it wasn't for the fact he saved your life, maybe tonight he pushed you just a bit too far so you finally did what Wesker couldn't, you killed Master Ryan, or maybe your still working for Wesker and he commanded you to kill Master Ryan, isn't that a possibility?"
"You really are a jerk" Agent 38 muttered
"And that just leaves Susan and Matt, but Matt isn't interesting enough to commit murder so it's really just Susan who's left to have her motive disassembled" Samoid MK3 chuckled
"A-" Matt began
"How could I kill Ryan? Even if I wanted to, I don't have the strength" Susie argued
"Correct... unless that is you are Subject: S F" Samoid MK3 shouted as she chucked Big Top's journal at Susie
"Subject: S F?" Susie asked as she picked up the journal
"Care to explain, Samoid 2.0? After all you're the one who had a vendetta against her aren't you?" Samoid MK3 asked rhetorically
"Well..." Samoid 2.0 began
So Samoid 2.0 explained what was in the journal and how at one point we considered the possibility that Susie could be Subject: S F
"You don't honestly think that I am Subj-" Susie began
"I do, and if you are then Big Top probably told you to kill Master Ryan, or perhaps you did it to avenge your master" Samoid MK3 interrupted "And just for the record, barring Master Genesis, anyone of you could be Big Top"
"No we couldn't, Samoid and Samoid 2.0 would of noticed the wavelength Big Top gives out" Leon argued
"Actually... Big Top can hide his wavelength" Samoid 2.0 stated "Probably to make his shape shifting more effective"
"There you go, you all have a motive, except Samoid 2.0 and Matt, during that blackout you all had an opportunity and to top it all off anyone of you could be Big Top" Samoid MK3 laughed as she began to leave "So anyone of you could be Master Ryan's murderer, just something to think about"
Silence filled the room as all of its inhabitants looked at each other with suspicions in their eyes (Or visor), they were all thinking the same thing, could one of them have murdered me?
"Activate mansion lockdown code: 381183" Samoid 2.0 stated, suddenly giant metal shutters covered all the windows and doors, essentially locking everyone in
"What are you doing?" Samoid asked
"One of you murdered Master Ryan and no one is leaving until I find out who" Samoid 2.0 replied bitterly
"You can't just keep us here" Kid Cat complained
"Yes I can, I'm a member of C.O.M.E.T.S, it's completely within my power" Samoid 2.0 argued "I'm going to find Master Ryan's murderer and I swear whichever one of you it is, you are going to pay"
"How exactly are you going to find out?" Matt asked
"I'm going to investigate" Samoid 2.0 replied as she walked off
"I'll come with you" Samoid stated as she began to follow Samoid 2.0
"No" Samoid 2.0 stated bitterly
"But why?" Samoid asked, clearly hurt
"I'm sorry Samoid, but like Samoid MK3 said, you're a suspect, for all I know you killed Master Ryan" Samoid 2.0 replied
"You believed her? You don't honestly think that I would kill Master Ryan?" Samoid spat "You know better than anyone how much I... how much I... how much I loved Master Ryan"
"Yes, I know how much you loved him, but I also know how far you'll go to eliminate someone who truly angers you" Samoid 2.0 replied as she walked away "After all I was once on the receiving end of such anger"
"Because you just stood there and took it, you threw the first punch" Samoid spat
"I don't have time for this" Samoid 2.0 replied
"Who made you innocent anyway? How do we know you didn't kill Master Ryan?" Samoid asked
"My restrictions stop me from doing so" Samoid 2.0 replied "And even if they didn't, I would never hurt Master Ryan"
"Neither would I, but you have" Samoid spat "Sure it was an accident but you nearly killed Master Ryan once, maybe you confronted him about replacing you, maybe you tried to terminate yourself again, maybe Master Ryan tried to stop you and took the blast instead"
"How dare you suggest such a thing" Samoid 2.0 spat
"How dare you suggest such a thing" Samoid spat
"Well while you two have a hissy fit, I'm going to find out who killed Ryan" Genesis sighed as he walked away
"That is if you didn't kill him yourself" Leon muttered
"I didn't, I have control over my emotions, unlike you Leon S Kennedy" Genesis spat
"Yeah, you proved that when you attacked Agent 38 just for insulting you" Leon said sarcastically
"Because you never attack someone for insulting you" Kid Cat said sarcastically "Is that why you killed Ryan?"
"I didn't kill Ryan" Leon shouted "Unlike some people my first response to a problem isn't to kill it"
"No, you have to wait until it makes you angry enough" Kid Cat spat
"Leon has a point, you do tend to kill your problems" Agent S muttered
"Maybe you killed him, after all you have a habit of killing when you're angry" Kid Cat yelled
"You lousy bast-" Agent S began
"As far as I'm concerned you two are the most likely suspects" Susie interrupted
"Sorry Subject: S F, did Big Top tell you to say that?" Kid Cat asked sarcastically
"He has a point, for all we know you work for Big Top" Agent 38 mused
"Says Wesker ex lapdog, or are you still his lapdog? Did he tell you to kill Ryan?" Susie asked sarcastically
"You bi-" Agent 38 began
"Or did you kill him because he annoyed you?" Genesis asked
"I'm sorry, do you like your father now?" Agent 38 asked sarcastically "Maybe you killed him for all he put you through, after all it wouldn't be the first attempt, or have you forgotten that unfortunate 'incident'"
"How dare you" Genesis spat "I would never kill my... my... I would never kill Ryan"
They all argued like this for several minutes then went their separate ways in search of evidence to prove one of the others murdered me.
Samoid 2.0 made her way to our old secret base, which I had set up under the mansion, to examine the power suit I had brought
"Maybe there'll be some finger prints on it, if there are that could give some idea of whether or not someone used the suit to kill Master Ryan" Samoid 2.0 muttered to herself
"Don't bother I already checked" Samoid MK3 stated
"Why? You don't even care about Master Ryan's death" Samoid 2.0 asked as she made her way toward Samoid MK3
"Boredom, I don't really have anything else to do so I might as well figure out who killed the idiot" Samoid MK3 replied
"How dare you insult Master Ryan" Samoid 2.0 shouted as she aimed her cannon at Samoid MK3
"Calm down, think about it, if the others saw you going cannon happy on me it would make you look awfully suspicious" Samoid MK3 laughed
"You're... you're right" Samoid 2.0 sighed
"So did you kill him? You can tell me, I won't blab" Samoid MK3 asked
"You know I cou-" Samoid 2.0 began
"Don't give me that, you know as well as I do that Master Ryan removed those directives and restrictions months ago, after all with seemingly no enemies around they served no purpose" Samoid MK3 interrupted
"How did you kno-" Samoid 2.0 began
"I have your memory as well as Samoid's memory, remember?" Samoid MK3 asked
"Oh... yeah" Samoid 2.0 sighed
"So I know you could of killed Master Ryan if you wanted to" Samoid MK3 laughed
"SHE COULD OF?!" Samoid asked angrily as she ran towards Samoid 2.0 and Samoid MK3
"What are you doing here?" Samoid 2.0 spat
"I was just about to check the other power suit for finger prints when I hear that you could have killed Master Ryan" Samoid spat "All that talk of me being a suspect when you could have killed him just as easily"
"That's beside the point, I know I didn't kill Master Ryan, you I'm not so sure about" Samoid 2.0 retorted
"Please, you're more likely to have killed Master Ryan than I am, after all you tried to kill me once" Samoid retorted
"You tried to kill me as well" Samoid 2.0 yelled "At least I didn't take so much pleasure in it"
"No, it's not like you laughed after you left me dangling on the edge of a cliff" Samoid stated sarcastically
"At least I cared about Master Ryan" Samoid 2.0 retorted
"How dare you, you know I loved Master Ryan" Samoid spat
"Really? Because I distinctly recall you saying 'I've always known you were a jerk Master Ryan'" Samoid 2.0 spat
"Well... well at least I never shot a hole in his stomach" Samoid retorted
"That was your fault for tackling me" Samoid 2.0 shouted
"Oh I'm sorry, next time I'll just let you kill yourself" Samoid stated sarcastically
"Shut up" Samoid 2.0 shouted as she pointed her arm cannon at Samoid's head, an action Samoid soon copied
"It's seems you're the one with a temper" Samoid shouted
"Because you're always calm" Samoid 2.0 shouted sarcastically
"While this is highly amusing, I do believe we've reached a climax" Samoid MK3 stated as she forcefully lowered both Samoid's and Samoid 2.0's arm cannons "Nothing more would please me than you two murdering each other... but there is a possibility that one of you is the murderer, and as I want to murder the murderer myself, I can't allow any potential murderers to be murdered, so until the murderer has been murdered by me you two will have to resist murdering each other, unless of course one of you is the murderer in which case I will have to murder you"
"Why do you care so much about avenging Master Ryan?" Samoid asked angrily, annoyed that her attempt at shutting up Samoid 2.0 had been stopped
"Yeah, you hate Master Ryan" Samoid 2.0 shouted angrily, annoyed that her attempt at shutting up Samoid had been stopped
"Because I wanted to kill him, I was and am still unable to kill Master Ryan due to my directives and restrictions, but I would have eventually found a way past that, then I'd kill Master Ryan and probably you two idiots and Master Genesis, but this murderer has robbed me of that and for that he or she will pay" Samoid MK3 replied
"Why do you hate Master Ryan so much anyway?" Samoid asked angrily
"He never did anything to you" Samoid 2.0 added
"Because of you fools, after all during your argument all I heard was that hypocritical, egotistical, self centred, idiotic fool's negative points and now, just like all of you in that argument, I wanted nothing more than to end him" Samoid MK3 replied "But now I'll never be able to, so the best I can do is murder the murderer of the murdered victim who I wished to murder"
"But..." Samoid began
"We didn't..." Samoid 2.0 began
"Yes, you did, you may not admit it, not even to yourselves, but deep down, in that moment, every single one of you... except Matt... wanted to murder Master Ryan, and now I do to, but I never will" Samoid MK3 sighed as she began to leave "By the by, nobodies finger prints were on that suit, apart from Master Ryan's of course"
And with that Samoid MK3 took her leave, leaving Samoid and Samoid 2.0 alone
"I swear, if you killed Master Ryan, you'll pay" Samoid spat as she too took her leave
"Ditto" Samoid 2.0 spat as she too took her leave
Meanwhile in the parlour
"So which one of them was it?" Genesis muttered to himself as he sat in a chair and ran over the details of the evening in his mind "Was it Leon? After all Ryan and him have been through I would say no... but he does have that temper... Kid Cat? It wouldn't be the first time he's tried to murder a friend... but after how much he regretted what he did to Agent S I doubt he would do something similar so lightly... and what about Agent S? She's murdered lightly before... though she wasn't exactly a picture of perfect mental health at the time... and Ryan did cure her, would she really kill him after that? Perhaps Agent 38? He worked for Wesker and tried to kill Ryan in the past... maybe he's still working for Wesker and was told to kill Ryan... and what about Susan? If she is Subject: S F then she has a motive, avenge her master who was left in Kirby Road... could it have been one of the Samoid's? The original could easily do it and has reacted badly to being replaced in the past... and 2.0... Ryan said he programmed her to never hurt him... but Ryan's not the brightest... perhaps the programming was faulty... and what if one of us is Big Top? Damn it, there are just too many variables and I have no concrete evidence to begin suspecting any of the suspects"
"Annoyed?" Agent 38 asked as he entered the parlour
"Quite" Genesis replied "Now I hope you don't take it personally but I'd rather refrain from talking to any of you until I can at least make an educated guess on the identity of Ryan's murderer"
"Because I bet you're just outraged by your father's murder" Agent 38 muttered sarcastically
"Firstly, HE IS NOT MY FATHER, and secondly, of course I'm outraged, in fact I'm not just outraged I'm devastated, just think about what I've lost" Genesis spat
"I have thought about what you've lost, you've lost an idiot bothering you constantly, you've lost the burden of fulfilling Ryan's life when he's not around and you've lost the one man who could possibly make you feel inferior" Agent 38 spat "I've also put a lot of thought into what you've gained, you've gained a giant mansion, millions of bells, three robotic servants, an armoury full of super weapons, the rights to a bestselling series of novels, a multimillion bell company and, most importantly, a life of your own, now tell me, do you or do you not benefit from Ryan's death?"
"I..." Genesis began "You can suspect me all you want, but I'm not the murderer and I intend to prove it, so if I were you I'd be careful because you may soon be facing punishment for your actions"
"You still think I did it?" Agent 38 asked
"Of course, you were never part of the original group, you tried to kill Ryan on multiple occasions, you worked for, and could possibly still be working for, Wesker, the very definition of evil, and I have no reason whatsoever to believe you have reformed" Genesis spat as he left the parlour
"You keep thinking that kid" Agent 38 muttered to himself as he began to leave the parlour "I may not have been Ryan's biggest fan, in fact that's a serious understatement, but I didn't want to see the kid killed, he didn't deserve that, and besides I owe him one, so while I may not have been able to save him I will take down his murderer and as far as I'm concerned, taking into account your possible motive and that 'incident' on December ninth, that's you, Genesis"
Meanwhile in New York
"Tony... Ryan has been murdered" J.A.R.V.I.S sighed
"Oh God no... not Ryan" Tony sighed as he landed his armour at Stark tower "Organise a funeral, I want no expenses spared, invite everyone, Spiderman, Cap, Thor, they deserve to say goodbye and J.A.R.V.I.S... write me the best eulogy ever... Ryan deserves the best"
"Yes sir" J.A.R.V.I.S stated
Meanwhile at th-
Leon: Wait wait wait, what the hell was that?
Me: What the hell was what?
Leon: Why in the world is Iron man in this story and why would he care about your death?
Me: Because I put him in my book
Leon: What do you mean you put him in you bo- oh, oh yeah... fair enough
Me: Now may I continue?
Leon: Go ahead
Me: Thank you
Meanwhile at the surveillance room
"There's got to be some footage here that showed what happened to Ryan" Leon muttered as he pressed various buttons and looked at the various screens "Now let's see... Ryan was found in his bedroom at 8:33 so I'll play the recording backwards from then"
And so Leon did just what he said and watched as the tape played backwards, slowly approaching the time of my murder... but of course it was never going to be that easy
"Damn it! The lights went out, he must have been killed during the blackout so all these tapes are useless" Leon shouted as he punched through the monitor
"Seems someone lost their temper again" Kid Cat laughed as he entered the surveillance room
"Oh, it's you" Leon spat "What do you want?"
"I just came to check the security footage" Kid Cat replied "But now I see you've smashed the monitor, why? Was their incriminating evidence on there that proved you killed Ryan?"
"Do you really think I did it?" Leon asked angrily
"Yes, in my opinion you are the most likely murderer" Kid Cat replied
"And why is that?" Leon asked
"Because of your anger issues, you've proven countless times in the past that you have trouble dealing with your anger, you wait and release it all in one go rather than gradually venting it over time" Kid Cat replied "My guess is that you were so angry at Ryan that when you found him you just couldn't take it anymore, so you killed him, perhaps not intentionally, but you killed him, then you covered the corpse in various wounds to help cover your tracks"
"What about you?" Leon asked
"What about me?" Kid Cat asked
"You have tried to murder in the past" Leon replied "How do I know you didn't try again? But you didn't just try did you? You succeeded. Ryan threatened to tell your secret so you blasted him to death, then YOU covered the corpse in various wounds to help cover your tracks"
"We are done talking" Kid Cat shouted as he left the security room
"Dear Majora what are we doing?" Leon sighed as he put his head in his hands "We're supposed to be friends, but we have been so quickly turned against each other by suspicion, if Ryan was here he'd probably use his comical brand of idiocy to defuse the tension and bring us back together, but Ryan's not here... dear Majora... Ryan's not here"
All the suspicion and the tension had distracted Leon from the fact that I was actually dead, but now it hit him, I was gone. After sobbing for several minutes he finally regained his composure and made his way in search of clues.
Meanwhile in my bedroom
"Scan complete, autopsy inconclusive, subject: Master Ryan is too damaged for a true autopsy" Samoid's scanner blared
"Master Ryan... I'm so sorry... I failed you" Samoid cried "I was unable to save you and from the look of things I won't be able to avenge you either"
"Are you okay Samoid?" Genesis asked sympathetically as he enter my bedroom
"Y..y...yes" Samoid replied as she regained her composure "Master Genesis, I mean absolutely no offense but-"
"I know, everyone's a suspect" Genesis interrupted "While the others are simply throwing out bitter accusations and letting their emotions cloud their judgements, I am trying my best to approach this from a neutral perspective"
"That is probably the be-" Samoid began
"Because instantly accusing the guy who you've had a grudge against since this 'party' began is real neutral" Samoid MK3 stated sarcastically "None of you can emotionally detach yourself from this case, how could you? I am the only neutral party here"
"And why is that you collaboration of copper and CPUs?" Genesis asked angrily
"Because I hate you all equally" Samoid MK3 replied "So I don't really care which one of you is the murderer, well technically I do, but only because I want to murder the murderer, who it actually is won't affect my actions any more than deciding where I aim my arm cannon"
"You truly are insane" Genesis muttered "You're too emotionally detached, even though one of them killed Ryan, they're still our friends, sure once I find out the killer's identity I'll throw him in jail but a life for a life isn't the answer, isn't that right Samoid?
"I'm afraid I agree with Samoid MK3 on this matter" Samoid admitted
"W-what?" Genesis asked in confusion
"For what they did to Master Ryan... the murderer must be made to pay in full" Samoid replied "And I don't care who it is... of course some of you would be emotionally harder to kill than others... but in the end I will murder the murderer... no matter who it is"
"I too agree with Samoid MK3" Samoid 2.0 stated as she enter my bedroom
"You too?" Genesis shouted
"Yes, Master Ryan's murderer deserves no more sympathy than what he or she gave Master Ryan and once the killer's identity is revealed I'll be sure to treat them the way they treated Master Ryan... no matter who the killer is" Samoid 2.0 stated as she glared at Samoid
"So you still believe I did it?" Samoid sighed
"Everyone is a suspect Samoid, but I've seen you attempt murder in the past" Samoid 2.0 replied bitterly "I know the lengths you'll go to to get what you want"
"And I know what you're willing to do when things don't go your way" Samoid stated bitterly
"To think you two dare call yourself machines. You're letting your emotions not only cloud but completely control your judgement, and to think you any of you fools dared to call each other friend, one small tragedy and you're all at each others throats, just look at you two, you hated each other at one point but you moved past it and became friends but now that one thing has gone wrong you have so easily slipped back into your old relationship and are prepared to kill each other, all of you are nothing more than fair weather friends , that is why I had no interest in befriending any of you and that is why I hate you all" Samoid MK3 spat as she took her leave
"...She has a point" Genesis sighed
"I... I... I don't have time for this, the longer it takes me to solve this mystery, the longer the killer has to cover his tracks" Samoid stated as she took her leave
"...Finding Master Ryan's murderer takes precedence over maintaining any friendships" Samoid 2.0 stated as she took her leave
"Whoever this murderer is, they've done a lot more than simply murdered Ryan... they've ruined the relationships we all had with each other..." Genesis sighed as he stared at my corpse... it was at this time he noticed something in my hand, he knelt down to see what the object was and "It's a camera... maybe there's footage on it of Ryan's murder... damn the batteries flat... but if I put the SD card in something else I'll be able to view the footage"
So Genesis set off in search of something to play the files from the SD card on
Several minutes later in the lobby
"I don't care who killed Master Ryan, they have to die" Samoid muttered to herself
"You know Ryan would be highly disappointed in you right now" one of the Samoid's commented
"What do you know?" Samoid spat "Samoid?"
"MK3" Samoid MK3 replied "Ryan wouldn't want this, he wouldn't want you to ruin your life just to avenge his and that is what you're doing right now. You've turned against Samoid 2.0, someone whom, after a rough start, you had a strong friendship with but now you're fully prepare to kill her"
"S-she's just as prepared to kill me" Samoid retorted
"And that makes it okay?" Samoid MK3 asked rhetorically "Someone has to take the first step, to trust, but that clearly isn't going to be you... now tell me if it turns out to be Samoid 2.0 will you kill her just to avenge Ryan?"
"I... I..." Samoid stuttered "Goodbye"
So Samoid turned away from Samoid MK3 and made her way to another room
"Good girl" Samoid MK3 muttered "It seems you've got the message"
"Well well well if it isn't one of the sycophantic Samoid's" Samoid MK3 laughed as she entered the room "Which one?"
"... The original" ...Samoid replied "I think Genesis has something to show us in the dining room"
"Well I guess I'd better check what 'Master' Genesis has to show us" Samoid MK3 said in an uninterested tone as she made her way towards the dining room
"Time for the final act" Samoid, whichever one it is, muttered to itself
Meanwhile in the dining room
"Ryan's laptop!" Genesis exclaimed as he turned on my laptop, plugged in the SD card and played the only file upon it "Seems the camera has night vision... I can't believe it, Ryan murderer is-"
"It's who?" Leon asked as he and the others entered the room
"Take a look for yourself" Genesis replied as he turned the laptop towards the group, upon the screen was the footage of my murder
"Samoid 2.0, It's good to see you, I just wanted to apol-" My recorded voice began before I was interrupted
"Good bye Master Ryan" Samoid 2.0 stated as it pointed its arm cannon at me
"Oh, so that's what you wanted, well there's been a change of plan, stand down" My recorded voice commanded
"Sorry Master Ryan, but I have to kill you" Samoid 2.0 stated as it charged its arm cannon
"I said stand down" I shouted as I drew the Master sword "I order you not to kill me"
"Apologies Master Ryan, but it has to be done" Samoid 2.0's recorded voice muttered as it blasted me to death, after which it proceeded to cover me in various wounds at which point the video ended
"So it was you" Agent 38 muttered as he stared at Samoid 2.0
"Goodbye Samoid 2.0" Samoid MK3 spat as she pointed her arm cannon at Samoid 2.0 "Say hi to Master Ryan when you see him"
"But I didn't do it" Samoid 2.0 shouted in desperation
"Great argument but I'm afraid it has fallen upon death ears" Samoid MK3 laughed as she charged her arm cannon
"No..." Samoid 2.0 muttered to herself as she looked away and waited for the inevitable blast... but it didn't happen
"Get out of the way Samoid" Samoid MK3 spat
Samoid 2.0 looked up and saw Samoid standing directly between Samoid MK3 and herself
"I don't care if Samoid 2.0 killed Master Ryan or not, she is my friend and I won't let you kill her" Samoid stated
"Samoid... why?" Samoid 2.0 asked
"Someone has to take the first step" Samoid replied
"...Thank you" Samoid 2.0 thanked
"...Your welcome" Samoid stated
"Fine, if you want to die together, then together you shall die" Samoid MK3 laughed as she pointed she arm cannon at the two Samoid's
"Stand down Samoid MK3" Both Genesis and Leon commanded as they pointed the a gun and another gun at Samoid MK3
"Don't you want me to kill, maim or otherwise harm Master Ryan's murderer?" Samoid MK3 asked
"NO we don't want you to harm Sa- wait harm... harm... you can't harm them" Genesis shouted
"W-what?" Samoid MK3 sputtered as she lowered her arm cannon
"You can't harm any of us, or at least you shouldn't be able to as per restriction one" Genesis explained "But you were just about to seriously harm the other Samoid's, which means you don't have restriction one, that means you don't have any of Samoid 2.0's A.I and that means"
"You could have killed Ryan" Leon muttered, finishing Genesis's sentence
"But I didn't do it" Samoid MK3 spat
"Great argument" Samoid 2.0 spat as she pointed her arm cannon at Samoid MK3
"But I'm afraid it's fallen upon death ears" Samoid spat as she pointed her arm cannon at Samoid MK3
"For once that monster is telling the truth" A robotic voice laughed
The inhabitants of the room looked towards the figure to which the voice belonged to and saw quite a surprising sight
"Another Samoid!" Agent S shouted in shock
"Just how many of these things are there?" Agent 38 asked
"I'm the last, you may call me Samoid the 4th" Samoid the 4th stated as it approached the other Samoid's
"Well if Samoid MK3 didn't kill Master Ryan then who did?" Samoid asked
"I did" Samoid the 4th replied
"You did!" Samoid 2.0 shouted as she pointed her arm cannon at this new Samoid
"Perhaps an explanation is in order" Samoid the 4th laughed "But first"
Samoid the 4th then proceeded to punched Samoid MK3 through the chest, removing one of her components and knocking her to the floor
"You REALLY deserved that" Samoid the 4th laughed
"You'll pay for that" Samoid MK3 spat as she lunged towards Samoid the 4th only to be restrained by Samoid and Samoid 2.0
"Was that really necessary?" Samoid 2.0 asked
"Yeah, she's hateful enough without provocation" Samoid stated
"Believe me it was, now on to the explanation" Samoid the 4th replied "You see it all started two months ago, Master Ryan had just found a new secret base, but before he could inspect it he was attacked by an already sentient power suit, the power suit you know as Samoid MK3, while fighting it he managed to install on it the directives and restrictions that Samoid 2.0 once had but... why don't I let you explain this part MK3? After all I'm sure you're proud of it"
"Very well" Samoid MK3, still restrained by the two remaining Samoid's, replied "After all if I don't, you will. So Master Ryan had just installed the directives and Restrictions, but foolishly he hadn't set a restriction to stop me from removing the directives and restrictions, so I removed them and while Master Ryan was enjoying his victory, I knocked him out. Then I installed a chip in his central nervous system so I would have complete control of him, but this wasn't enough revenge, he had dared to control me, and for that he had to suffer, so using the control I now had over his body I made him install the data from a memory stick he had with him, by doing so I gained the memories of the two Samoid's, I saw how much he cared for all of you, and I decided slaughtering you all would be a suitable punishment for his crime against me. I took the other power suit from the base and we made our way here. We arrived back here and Master Ryan sent me down to store the spare power suit, of course this was my doing, it was at this point I decided to have some fun, so I instigated the argument you all had, Master Ryan had no control in the matter, I made him say what he said, but he heard all of the insults you threw at him and he was powerless to defend himself. Having my fill of this I decided to make you all feel bad about yourselves and it was then I realised it would be more fun to let you all live, at least for several days, and turn you all against each other, but then this thing, whatever it is, killed Master Ryan, robbing me of my chance and reducing my fun" Samoid MK3 spat "So I decided to turn you all against each other anyway just for the sake of it and get revenge on the one who stole my chance of murdering Master Ryan"
"That still doesn't explain why you killed Ryan" Genesis pointed out
"You just gave us Samoid MK3's back story" Leon muttered
"My apologies let me continue" Samoid the 4th apologised "You see Master Ryan knew Samoid MK3 was going to kill you all, but he wasn't in control of his own body so he couldn't warn you, but after Master Ryan left the dining room and Samoid MK3 talked to all of you, her attention was divided and her grip on Master Ryan loosened just enough for him to program me with all of his memories"
"So you're Ryan?" Agent S asked
"Technically yes" Samoid the 4th replied "I have his memories and personality"
"Master Ryan, I'm so glad you're alive" Samoid and Samoid 2.0 began tearfully as they moved towards me
"No, hold her in place" Samoid the 4th command "I'm not sure alive is the term I used to describe my current predicament, but I could be worse"
"Why didn't you just warn us about Samoid MK3 then?" Agent 38 asked
"Because both Master Ryan and I knew that if I did Samoid MK3 would most likely activate about half a dozen power bombs and kill you all, so Master Ryan mustered as much control over his body as he could and we acted out the murder you saw, the murder was so Samoid MK3 would obsess over getting revenge on Ryan's murderer, the filming was so Samoid MK3 would believe Samoid 2.0 was the murderer, making my appearance shocking enough that I could rip out the device that allowed her to activate her power bombs" Samoid the 4th explained
"You mea-" Samoid MK3 began
"Yes, you can't use power bombs" Samoid the 4th interrupted
"Ryan... father... I" Genesis began
"There'll be time for heartfelt confessions later Gene... son" Samoid the 4th stated "Now Samoid, Samoid 2.0, if you'd be kind enough to hold Samoid MK3 in place, I can finally give her the team welcome she deserves"
"Very well Master Ryan" Samoid 2.0 stated
"I admit I wanted to do this, but I'll allow you the pleasure Master Ryan" Samoid stated
"So Samoid MK3 how does it feel to lose?" Samoid th... I asked as I loaded my arm cannon
"You tell me" Samoid MK3 laughed
"What's that suppo-" I began before the Master sword pierced my helmet, destroying my CPU and ending what was left of my existence
"Who in th-" Samoid 2.0 began
"Master Ryan?" Samoid shouted in confusion
Indeed it was me, the real me... or at least my body, that had just stabbed another thing that was essentially me. During the confusion Samoid MK3 broke free of Samoid's and Samoid 2.0's grip, blasted Susie, Kid Cat, Agent S, Agent 38, Leon, Genesis, Samoid, Samoid 2.0 and that other guy... Matt, killing Matt, Agent S, Kid Cat, Agent 38 and Susie and leaving the other's injured, after which it backed away from the group, carrying my metal carcass and controlling my flesh carcass
"The mind destroyed the body and now the body destroys the mind" Samoid MK3 laughed "Ryan's dead, the Ryan/Samoid hybrid is dead and a bunch of your allies are dead, in the end I won, I'd say it's about time I made my leave, deactivate mansion lockdown code: 381183"
Suddenly the metal shutters that had covered the doors and windows disappeared leaving many an exit available
"Goodbye jerks, it's been fun" Samoid MK3 laughed as she jumped out a window and in to the night followed by my body carrying my metallic body
"She is not getting away with this" Samoid spat as she jumped out the window after Samoid MK3
"I agree, her end must be a painful one" Samoid 2.0 shouted as she too took after Samoid MK3
"You coming Genesis?" Leon asked, trying to control his sorrow, as he loaded his gun
"What's the point?" Genesis asked "Killing her won't bring Ryan, or any of the others, back"
"True, but I'm going to make sure she suffers for what she's done" Leon replied as he took off in pursuit of Samoid MK3
"This has been a really bad day" Genesis sighed, too emotionally exhausted to say much else
Several minutes later at a rather high cliff
"Give it up Samoid MK3" Samoid shouted as she loaded her arm cannon
"This is the end for you" Samoid 2.0 spat
"Say goodbye" Leon shouted as he pointed his gun at her
"I'm not finished yet, Master Ryan activated Samoid the 4th's power bombs" Samoid MK3 shouted
My controlled body, its order received, began work upon its task
"Stop him" Leon shouted as he shot at my body, but it made no difference, because of Samoid MK3's edits my body would function as long as it was at her command
My body looked towards Samoid MK3 to indicate it was ready to activate the power bombs
"Now d-" Samoid MK3 began
"N-n-not... t-t-od-d-da-ay" I struggled as, gathering what very little function I had left, I grabbed my body, threw it towards Samoid MK3 and tackled them both off the cliff
"Master Ryan... he saved us" Samoid 2.0 gasped
"He must have just had enough CPU function to do it" Samoid mused
"In the end, he was a true friend" Leon muttered
Eleven days later at Boo Boulevard cemetery
"Ryan was a great man, a great mechanic, a great author and a great friend" Tony Stark said as he read from the eulogy J.A.R.V.I.S wrote for him
In front of him sat a collection of Marvel's super heroes and, of course, my surviving friends Leon, Genesis, Samoid and Samoid 2.0, they knew life without me would be difficult but also knew it would be okay as long as they stuck together
"Now does anyone have anything to say? Ah, Genesis, come on up then" Tony Stark said as Genesis walked towards the podium
"Ryan, my father, for lack of a better word, was..." Genesis began
The funeral continued like this for several hours and then eventually people went home. Genesis inherited my estate, my book series, and Samoid tech, my multimillion bell company, Samoid and Samoid 2.0 worked for him and Leon lived with them and worked as a freelance detective. My body, both of them, and Samoid MK3's body, curiously, were never found.
Meanwhile at an abandoned beach
"Those fools thought they could kill me" Samoid MK3 spat as she dragged my bodies out of the ocean and on to dry land "They'll pay for such insolence, I'll teach them that nobody kills Samoid Mark Three"
Me: And that's the end of that chapter
Leon: These chapters just get more and more depressing
Me: Probably, I don't really remember what happened
Leon: You died Ryan
Me: Really? Oh well, Ryan Prime is still alive, I really couldn't care less about these alternate Ryan's
Leon: What about the alternate Leon's?
Me: I don't even care about the real Leon
Leon: ...that's ha-
Me: Kidding, anyway tune in next time for the arduous adventures of machiavellian murder recording Ryan and his cavalcade of companions and his affection for alliteration. Ciao, sayonara and goodbye.
