17. Chapter 17

Message #17.

To Samus Aran.

From: Ridley.

Subject: Our Arsenal.

We aren't afraid of you bounty hunter. Me and my people will be just fine if you ever decide to head in our direction. Our secret labs are scattered throughout this land, filled with more knowledge than you can ever hope to acquire.

If you somehow survive the ruins just know that we'll be ready for you. If I can message you, I can spy on you. Every time you recharge your suit I'll know where you are, and how strong you are.

I'm going to enjoy watching you fight and die to the inevitability of it all. It will be quite entertaining.
