46. Chapter 46

Message #46.

To: Ridley.

From: Samus Aran.

Subject: Death.

This ends here. The phazon in my body wants me to give in, and part of me does as well; but I can't…

The chozo are gone, but they were indeed very wise. They wanted to purge this planet of this phazon, of this great evil. I owe my life to them and I must fulfill their last request. So we fight Ridley, we must fight.

The galaxy would never forgive me, I wouldn't forgive myself if I gave in now and helped you. I have to stop you and stop phazon from spreading its evil, I have to stop you so we have to fight.

-Goodbye Ridley.
