Coded Messages: Ridley's Plea

by theclownsarethere

After the events of metroid 1, Ridley reaches out to Samus in an attempt to break free of mother brain during her second uprising. This piece is told in a series of e-mail like messages between the two as they battle away, but come to a greater understanding of each other.

50. Chapter 50

Message #50.

To: Ridley.

From: Samus Aran.

Subject: Your End.

I killed the beast in the center of the crater. I fought on and nearly died several times. But I thought of you Ridley and I fought for you.

I never got another message from you, I can only assume you're dead.

I stare down at the flames and wonder if it's really over. The beast in the center took the phazon from me, the beast ripped it all from me. Now my mind is restored and I feel free again, and I will go off to solve more problems that plague the galaxy. Farewell Ridley, enjoy the peace if you can.

-Goodbye, old friend.
