In another dimension, a gunship was fleeing an armada of Space Pirates. It was the gunship of Samus Aran, the famous Galactic Federation Bounty Hunter. Samus was piloting it, and with her was a little girl with magenta hair and purple lightning flowing through her hands.
"Why are these pirates chasing us, Mom?"
"They want to destroy us, sweetheart," Samus replied.
The gunship was weaving and evading all the Space Pirate attacks in an asteroid field. The Space Pirates were destroyed.
"That was a close one."
"It sure was Janeen," Samus said.
"Warning!" shouted the computer. "Spacial Anomaly ahead."
A wormhole appeared and drew Samus' ship into it.
"Hang on Janeen!" Samus yelled.
The ship's engines failed, and it was unable to escape and was pulled in.
On a dark and rainy night in their dimension, they were watching J.D.'s favorite science-fiction horror movie, The Thing from 1982.
"So this is the movie you got the idea for your awesome transformation for Lucy's Corn Maze, J.D.?" Lincoln asked.
"Yep," J.D. confirmed. "This is the one. I saw this movie when I was 12, and it scared the living daylights out of me. I couldn't sleep for weeks and had horrible nightmares that plagued me for a long time."
"They must have scared you really bad, J.D.," Lucy replied.
"They sure have Lucy," J.D. agreed. "They also scared me so much that I couldn't concentrate in school or on anything else. So, to help me conquer my fear, I watched the movie multiple times and realized that it wasn't all real, which increased my courage."
"That's awesome, J.D.," Laney added. "You have to be the bravest guy we've ever known."
J.D. replied, "Well, I don't know about that, but thank you, Laney."
"You're welcome," Laney said.
J.D., Varie, Lucy, Eddy, and Luan were the only ones who weren't afraid while watching the movie.
"I know you gentlemen have been through a lot," Garry acknowledged. "But when you find the time, I'd rather not spend the rest of this winter TIED TO THIS FUCKING COUCH!"
"Bad mouth," J.D. commented.
"No kidding," Varie replied.
Lori and Leni were shaking with fear, hugging one other.
"This is really scaring me," Lori admitted.
"Totes," Leni said.
Then the alarm went off.
"What is that?!" Linka yelled.
"Alert!" warned the computer. "Code Dimension Jump!"
In the living room, a computer appeared.
"Triangulating position," J.D. said.
In the middle of the computer, a holographic image of Earth appeared, with a red dot blinking on top of their neighborhood.
"We have something coming at us!" shouted Naruto.
"We sure do," Fu agreed.
"Let's go", J.D. ordered.
They step outside and notice a wormhole high in the sky hovering over the neighborhood.
"It's a wormhole," Sakura explained.
"That's exactly what we came out of over Yellowstone," Max added.
"Yeah," Angel agreed.
Nicole cried out, "Something is coming out!"
They could make out Samus' ship emerging through the wormhole.
Lily gasped. "I know that ship! That is Samus Aran's gunship."
"From the "Metroid" series?" Lincoln asked. "How is that possible?"
"I have no idea," Linka admitted.
"It's out of control and about to crash!" yelled J.D. "Varie, Lori, Aylene, Lincoln, let's go!"
J.D., Varie, Lori, Aylene, and Lincoln flew up to the ship and slowed its descent.
"It's coming in too fast!" cried Varie.
"Keep holding it!" Lincoln urged.
They successfully slowed it down and carefully landed it on the ground. The ship was on fire, and its engines were completely destroyed.
"Looks like they were on the run from something," Sasuke surmised.
"Yeah," Ino agreed.
"Let's get them out," J.D. said.
J.D., Varie, and Aylene scale the ship, and J.D. finds a hatch. He enters the ship, where he finds Samus and Janeen unconscious.
"Hold on, Samus," J.D. cautioned. "You two will be okay.
He took them both in his arms and left the ship.
"They're unconscious, but they'll be fine," Varie assured them.
They walk away from the ship, and it explodes into nothing.
Lily concluded, "That's it for the ship."
"Affirmative," Lisa responded.
"There was no way that ship would have made it off the planet in the first place," Lana explained.
"Let's help them out," Lola proposed.
Samus and Janeen were being nursed back to health in the living room. When Samus awoke, she noticed that they were bandaging her arm and leg.
"Thank you for healing me," Samus expressed gratitude.
"You're welcome, Samus," J.D. replied. "We should introduce ourselves. I'm J.D. Knudson."
"I'm Varie Knudson, J.D.'s fiancée," she introduced herself.
"I'm Vince Pusateri, one of J.D.'s best friends and partner in his adventures," Vince added.
"My name is Megan Pusateri," Megan introduced herself.
"I'm Sarah Pusateri, and we're Vince's long-lost little sisters," Sarah explained.
"I'm Aylene Carter, Swordmaster of the Jurassic," she introduced herself.

"I'm Maximum Ride," Max explained. "Please call me, Max."
"My name is Angel," Angel introduced herself.
"I'm Star Butterfly, princess of Mewni," Star introduced herself.
"I'm Marco Diaz," he introduced himself.
"My name is Riley Anderson," Riley introduced himself.
"My name is Dawn," Dawn introduced herself.
"I'm Neyhara of Planet Criam," Neyhara introduced herself.

"My name is Allenby Knudson," Allenby introduced herself. "Jared is my husband."
"I'm Heidi Knudson, and these are my siblings, Nathaniel and Isabelle Knudson," she introduced them.
"I'm Verbina, Princess of Chrysalis," she introduced herself.
"I'm Astor, Prince of Chrysalis," Astor introduced himself.
"I'm Moka Akashiya, a Vampire," Moka said.
"I'm Kurumu Kurono, a Succubus," Kurumu said.
"I'm Fenikkuso Megami, a Phoenix," Fenikkuso introduced herself.
"I'm Yukari Sendo, genius witch," she added.
"I'm Tamao Ichinose, a Mermaid," Tamao remarked.
"I'm Mizore Shirayuki, a Snow Woman," Mizore introduced herself.
"I'm Ruby Tojo, a witch," Ruby said.
"I'm Deshiko Deshi, a Chinese Jiang Shi," Deshiko said.
"And I'm Keito, a Jorogumo or Spider Woman," Keito added.
Samus greeted everyone and stated, "It's a pleasure to meet you all."
"Same here," Janeen added. "I'm Janeen Aran."
J.D. responded, "It's a pleasure."
"We were on the run from Space Pirates, and we lost them in an asteroid field," Samus explained. "Then we wound up going through a strange wormhole."
"That wasn't a wormhole," J.D. pointed out. "That was a Transdimensional Vortex, a vortex that leads from one dimension to another."
"What dimension is this?" Samus asked.
"You're on Earth in the year 2017," J.D. revealed.
"So we've gone back in time in a way?" Samus asked.
"Exactly," Lisa replied.
"What time do you come from Samus?" Lana inquired.
"We're from the year 2086," Samus explained.
"Wow," they all exclaimed.
"That's 69 years from now," J.D. replied.
"That's a long time," Varie admitted.
"Yeah," Samus agreed.
"Janeen, is Samus your sister?" Lincoln asked.
"No, she's my mother," Janeen replied. "My real mom died somehow."
"Oh no," Varie whispered. "We're sorry to hear that."
"It's alright," Janeen answered. "But thank you."
"You're welcome," Varie said.
"Janeen lost her mother because of the contamination of a deadly radioactive substance," Samus explained.
"The Phazon Crisis," Lily said.
"That's right Lily," Samus said. "How did you know that?"
"I'll be right back," Lily said.
Lily returned carrying a large number of video games. "There's a video game series based on all of your adventures. It's called Metroid."
"Wow!" said Samus. "I had no idea there was a game series based on all of my adventures."
"Yeah," J.D. nodded. "It's been a huge hit for 31 years, ever since it first appeared in 1986."
"How did you become a bounty hunter, Samus?" Lola asked.
"That started when I was a child," Samus explained. "In 2055, I was born on K-2L, Earth's colony planet. It was an important planet to the Galactic Federation. But when I was only five years old, the Space Pirates attacked and destroyed everything. I was the only survivor of that terrible tragedy. Ridley, my ultimate nemesis, stood before me."
"Ridley?" J.D. wondered. "The Ultimate Space Pirate and the most powerful of them all for them?"
"That creature was a dragon of incredible power," Lincoln stated.
Janeen drew a perfect picture of Ridley. "Is this how he looked?"
"That's him," Lily pointed out. "He was also very deadly."
"That's right," Samusa replied. "The Colony transmitted a distress signal, which the Chozo intercepted and used to find and rescue me. I was adopted by the Chozo and developed a strong hatred for the Space Pirates. On the planet Zebes, I received extensive training from the Chozo. Before the Space Pirates took over, Zebes was my home planet. My superior officer Adam Malcovich trained me for the Galactic Federation."
"He must have been an important person in your career," Varie concluded.
"Yes," Samus agreed. "He taught me a lot, but I couldn't get the salute right."
"The Thumbs Up salute?" J.D. asked.
"Yes," Samus confirmed.
"That's interesting," Naruto commented. "What was your first mission?"
"My first ever mission was to destroy the leader of the Space Pirates: Mother Brain," Samus explained.
"That ugly brain that invaded Zebes?" Lincoln asked.
"Yes," Samus replied. "She was the creepiest thing I'd ever seen."
"I'll bet," J.D. replied. "From what I remember, she was a tough and formidable adversary."
"Yes," Samus agreed. "I was able to destroy her and escape. Then the Phazon Crisis began."
"It started on Tallon IV, right?" Lily asked.
"Correct," Samus acknowledged. "Tallon IV was a Chozo world."
Brittney used her magic to show them Tallon IV. "Is this what it looks like?"
"Yes," Samus replied. "It was a bizarre planet."
Samus took out a log book in which she kept track of all the creatures she encountered and learned about. "These are all the creatures I saw on Tallon IV."
It was a paper book with pictures of the creatures.
"These Tallon IV creatures are strange," J.D. noticed.
"Yeah," Sakura agreed. "We've been to different planets across the Universe, and these are interesting."
"These are unlike anything we've ever seen," Mera gasped.
"Yeah," Naruto agreed.
"I was sent to Tallon IV to look into a distress signal from one of our frigates in orbit," Samus explained. "It came from the Orpheon. The entire crew was slaughtered by Space Pirates. These pirates, on the other hand, were genetically enhanced and modified. I defeated the Parasite Queen, causing the ship to self-destruct. I met Meta-Ridley, a cybernetic version of Ridley who was fierce. During the escape, my suit was damaged by an electrical surge caused by an explosion, and I was only wearing my original power suit. I chased my nemesis to Tallon IV. When I arrived, I discovered that the planet had been struck by a meteor a long time ago, and that the Chozo built an ancient temple to forever seal a "Worm" and the "Great Poison," and that only 12 artifacts could open the temple."
"The Worm must have been Metroid Prime, and the Great Poison must have been the Phazon," Lily theorized.
"Correct," Samus said. "The Space Pirates were experimenting with Metroids and how to use Phazon to transform themselves into Phazon-Mutated Omega Pirates. It's a sickening sight."
They gasped.
"That's awful and very weird," Lori replied.
"No kidding," Carol agreed. "How can the Space Pirates be so dangerous?"
"They just are," Samus confirmed. "I collected all of the Artifacts and opened the temple, but Meta-Ridley attacked and I was able to defeat him. I found Metroid Prime in the Impact Crater and defeated him. But he took my Phazon Suit and reverted me to my Gravity suit. After that, I left Tallon IV. One year later, I was responding to a distress signal from the planet Aether."
"That must have been a strange planet," Fu mused.
"I remember that world," Lily recalled. "It was a planet in a constant state of flux. It had been divided into two worlds. One is of Light, the other is of Darkness."
"Yes," Samus confirmed. "The planet is home to the Luminoth. A meteor hit the planet and put it into flux. I found out that the planet was put into flux because of Phazon, and it formed an evil race of dark creatures call the Ing. On Dark Aether, I met my most dangerous adversary ever. She was going to destroy the entire universe: Dark Samus."
"Oh man," Lily gasped. "I remember her. She was created when Metroid Prime fused with your Phazon Suit in order to survive. She was a deadly foe that fed on the Phazon on the planet."
"Yes," Samus agreed. "Dark Samus was a deadly adversary. I had to restore Aether's Light Energy so that Dark Aether could be destroyed. I succeeded."
"That sounded like an impossible task," Kurumu noted.
"Yeah," Varie agreed.
"It was difficult," Samus admitted. "I fought the leader of the Ing, Emperor Ing and I defeated him and I had a final showdown with Dark Samus on Dark Aether and I won. I got off of Dark Aether just in the nick of time."
"That must have been a challenge," Lincoln commented.
"It was," Samus confirmed. "I later returned to our headquarters on the planet Norion. After I returned to the homebase, we were attacked by Space Pirates, and we discovered the source of all the Phazon that had been affecting the Planets I'd visited: it was coming from Leviathans passing through an unknown wormhole. My friends Rundas, Ghor, and Gandrayda - Janeen's mom - were sent to activate a cannon powerful enough to destroy the Leviathan."
"That had to be an incredibly powerful weapon," Moka noted.
"Yes," Samus agreed. "I lost consciousness and awoke in a medical ward. I had new equipment on me. It's called as the P.E.D. (Phazon Enhancement Device). What it does is it enables us to use a powerful Hypermode that can fire beams of Phazon."
"That sounds extremely dangerous," Verbina noted.
"It is," Samus agreed. "I had Phazon Fever, an extremely dangerous disease. It's a condition where after becoming exposed to the radioactive element of Phazon, I become corrupted. I was in a coma for a month. My friends became terminally corrupted, turning against the Federation and even me. They even became Dark Samus' pawns. Rundas and I first met on the planet Bryyo. Dark Samus was controlling him somehow, and I defeated him, and Dark Samus killed him."
"That's awful," Sakura said.
"Dark Samus was a monster," Sasuke concluded.
"Yes," Samus agreed. "I destroyed the Leviathan on the planet Bryyo and set out to planet Elysia."
"Elysia?" Hinata asked. "That sounds like a paradise world."
"No, it was anything but," Samus responded. "Elysia was a storm planet, and the Leviathan was planted in the storm clouds. Aurora Unit 217 and I had a brilliant plan. We would destroy the Leviathan Shield with a powerful bomb equivalent to 100 nuclear warheads."
"Wow!" gasped everyone.
"That's the equivalent of 10,000 megatons of TNT," J.D. explained.
Lisa performs an equation. "Actually, according to my calculations, it is the TNT equivalent of 12,513.5 megatons of TNT."
"That's a lot of power," Varie noted.
"It sure is," Samus agreed. "Before I faced the Leviathan, I encountered Ghor attacking my ship and he was completely mad."
"That's Dark Samus doing, dude," Luna remarked.
"Yeah," Luan agreed.
"Dark Samus was a monster on steroids," Eddy added.
"Yeah," Ino agreed.
"I defeated Ghor, and Dark Samus killed him," Samus continued. "I went to Urtragia, the Pirate Homeworld, after I saved Elysia. The sky was raining deadly acid rain, the land was barren, and the world was dangerous. I was entrusted with bringing the Federation landing and demolition party to the surface by lowering a barrier. I encountered Gandrayda who was corrupted by Dark Samus and she was a deadly foe. She was insane. I defeated Gandrayda, and Dark Samus killed her."
"I hate Dark Samus for taking my mother away from me!" Janeen screamed. She began to cry. "I never got a chance to know her!"
Samus comforted her. "It's all right, Janeen. It's okay."
"Dark Samus!" shouted J.D. "You took away a young girl's mother and forced her to become an orphan!"
"Yeah," Sakura agreed.
"Yeah," Samus nodded. "My journey does not end there. We boarded the Leviathan, and I destroyed it. We were then entrusted with tracking down the origin of all Phazon. It turns out that the source of all Phazon is a distant planet called Phaaze."
"I remember that planet," Lily replied. "Phaaze is a sentient planet. I saw what it was capable of."
"That's a scientific impossibility," Lisa objected. "Planets cannot be sentient and alive."
"That's unusual," Fu mused. "Sentience. But how can an entire planet be alive?"
"That's what truly astounds me," Vince admitted. "Planets are giant rock spheres formed over millions of years from dust, rock, and ice. It's possible that the Phazon came from a distant galaxy and spread unchallenged throughout the planet. Making it alive and sentient."
"Wow!" Carol said. "That is a very strong possibility."
"That could be," Samus answered. "We needed a command code from an abandoned Federation ship that had been raided by Space Pirates. They stole the ship Aurora Unit, so we went to Phaaze and fought them with everything we had. When I arrived on Phaaze, the atmosphere completely corrupted me with Phazon Fever. I thought I was gonna lose my mind, but my will was too strong. I descended into the planet's core and confronted Dark Samus. I fought her with everything I had, and she combined with a corrupted stolen Aurora Unit, which I defeated. Dark Samus had finally met her end, and her reign of terror had come to an end."
They cheered for her, and Janeen hugged Samus.
"Way to go, Samus," Naruto exclaimed.
"I agree," J.D. said. "Good show."
"That is an epic fight all on its own," Laney said. "I can't believe the Phazon wanted to destroy everything in the Universe."
"Me neither," replied Crysta. "People who destroy nature cannot be a part of mankind."
"Well said, Crysta," Laney acknowledged. "Oh, this is my friend Crysta. I met her in Australia."
"It's a pleasure," Samus replied. "After I destroyed Dark Samus, the Planet Phaaze became completely unstable, and we were able to escape before it exploded."
"Whoa!" shouted J.D.
"That was a narrow escape," Varie commented.
"Totes," Leni said.
"That must have been a wild ride," Lynn noted.
"No kidding," Linka agreed.
"Yeah," Samus agreed. "The Phazon Crisis was over."
"I hope Dark Samus has a good time in the Netherworld's darkest pits," J.D. commented.
"Me, too," Varie acknowledged.
"But my journey was not yet over," Samus continued. "My next mission was to eradicate the Metroids. I went to the planet SR388."
"That's the Metroid's home planet," J.D. clarified.
"Yes," Samus confirmed. "My mission was to completely destroy all Metroids and leave none alive. I did this and killed the Queen Metroid. As I was leaving the planet, I found a Metroid Egg, which hatched and followed me like a confused child."
"It must have thought of you as its mother," J.D. theorized.
"Yes," Samus agreed. "It had to have. After I left the planet with the last Metroid, I brought it to the space colony Ceres and handed it to the scientists and researchers. Their findings were astounding, and they were proven to be extremely beneficial to the Human Race. However, while I was leaving the Asteroid field, I received a distress signal alerting me that the Ceres station was under attack. I rushed back there and found the scientists dead, as well as my old nemesis Ridley with the container containing the Last Metroid. He escaped, and the station began its self-destruct sequence. I escaped and returned to Zebes, my old home planet."
"Planet Zebes," J.D. stressed. "Where it all began."
"Yeah," Samus nodded. "I discovered Mother Brain had been reborn and found her in Zebes' machine zone, Tourian. She was a hideous monster, and my weapons were useless against her. The Baby Metroid I knew was a giant one, and it bought me enough to regain my energy and save my life. It made the ultimate sacrifice to save me, and I used my suit's Hyper Beam to permanently destroy Mother Brain. After that, the Planet Zebes was going to explode. I got out of there and left my home planet, which exploded."
"Whoa!" shouted J.D. "It must have been horrible to see your home planet explode."
"Yes," Samus agreed. "It was. Three years later, I intercepted another distress signal from a space station. It was coming from a ship that resembled a bottle. It was actually a research facility. I was tasked with determining what caused the ship to become a death zone. I learned that an android created by a researcher named Madeline Bergman was programmed with Mother Brain's intelligence and formed its own consciousness, deciding that all humans are inferior to it, and she controlled all the creatures on the station and sent them to destroy us. My superior officer Adam made the ultimate sacrifice to destroy MB and save the Federation from destruction."
"Wow," J.D. exclaimed. "He is a true hero. He not only saved you, but he also saved the entire galaxy from destruction."
"Yes," Samus replied. "I will always treasure his memory."
"Mom found me on a planet in a town on fire," Janeen explained.
"Your village, where you lived, was destroyed?" Lola asked.
"That's right, Lola," Samus said.
"What planet did Gandrayda come from?" J.D. asked.
"Gandrayda was from the planet Jovia XII, and she had lots of unique abilities," Samus explained. "She could shapeshift, fire lightning, and use powerful attacks, among other things."
"Just like me," Janeen added. "I'm a Human-Jovian hybrid."
"Whoa!" shouted J.D. "That's amazing."
"Yep," Janeen agreed. "Watch."
Janeen fires a purple lightning beam from her hand at a chair, destroying it.
"Whoa!" cried J.D. "That was awesome."
"It sure was," Mera agreed.
"No kidding," Max agreed.
"Janeen's powers are incredible, just like mine, Linka, and Gabrielle's," Lincoln added.
"Yeah," Vince agreed.
"Those missions were incredible," Penny noted.
"They were," Lily agreed.
"Rockin' dude," Ember said.
"We have to get back to our ship," Samus stressed.
"I'm afraid that'll be impossible," J.D. admitted.
"Your ship's engines were on fire, and we rescued you both from it," Lisa explained.
"And after we rescued you, it exploded and destroyed everything," Naruto added.
"So we're stuck here?" Samus asked.
"I'm afraid so," J.D. confessed.
"This is really cool," Janeen gushed. "So far, I'm enjoying Earth."
"It's good to be back on Earth," Samus replied. "From now on, we're going to make it home."
"It's great to have you here, Samus," J.D. responded.
Samus affirmed, "Same here."
Samus was taken on a tour of the house, and her room was just like any other. Janeen now lives in Lincoln and Linka's room.
THE END.
