While SPBRR Are in Sector 4

"Sol…" Seer said quietly, sitting down on the lawn and was looking up at the evening sky.

Ghira looked out the window. "He's still out there…"

"Mmm…" Kali folded her arms. "He can sense danger and every once in a while, I've seen him get on all fours and act like there's trouble."

Ghira stroked his beard. "This is troubling. Blake was saying that this mission she went on with Samus was going to be an in and out type of deal. Mmm… I have a feeling something had come up."

"Me too." Kali nodded.

"Sol!" Seer cried, getting on all fours again and looking ready to spring into action, also looking a bit agitated.

"There he goes again. Something's not right…" Kali said.

Weiss and Ilia walked by with a hum, then noticed the Absol. "Oh hey boy… what's wrong?" Weiss asked, kneeling down.

"Sol… Sol!" The Absol said. "Sol Absol…"

"He's saying that he can sense Blake is in trouble." Calyrex said, approaching them. "Ever since they left, he's been on edge and he feels helpess because he's not there with her."

"Not only that…" Ilia spoke up. "But Mercie was telling me she's worried over SPBRR the moment they left. She watched them leave and couldn't help but feel as if something bad would happen."

"Was anyone with her?" Calyrex asked.

"Sienna watched them take off too but she hasn't said anything." Ilia said.

"Mmm…" Weiss folded her arms. "See, I've been a bit on edge too." She said. "Something about this mission Blake went on is rubbing me the wrong way…"

"Hmm… this is concerning." Calyrex said, then heard a door closing as they turned to see the Belladonnas approaching them. "I assume you two are worried as well?"

"Blake told us that she said as far as she knew, this mission was an in and out one." Kali said. "She left her Pokemon here for that reason, and Seer's been on edge for a while. All day, in fact."

"It's greatly concerning." Ghira said.

"You guys are worried about her too?" A voice spoke up as they saw Sun approaching. "I know this is Blake and all… and I know she's with a powerhouse like Samus and Rosie, but… I can't help but shake the feeling."

Calyrex folded his arms. "That settles it." He said. "Everyone, gather at the Mushroom Fields and get as many psychics as you can. I'm going to ask Arceus if he can come over."

"Why at Mushroom Fields?" Ilia asked.

"Less noisy." Calyrex said, noting that a few motorcycles drove by.

"That's a good point." Weiss nodded.

"Why do we need psychics and Arceus for this?" Sun asked.

"Because normally, my powers reach up to a 30 mile radius… so, why not amp it up with the help of the psychics?"

"Ooooh, now I get ya!"

"Indeed. Now, let's get a move on. We've no time to waste."

Later…

"I, too, have been worried about Blake… along with Samus." Zelda (as in ALttP Zelda) said. "Something doesn't feel right."

"I'm worried about ROB." Ness said.

"We think it's safe to say we're worried about everyone." Xena said.

"Ooooh yeah."

Calyrex reappeared as Mewtwo had joined him, and Arceus landed next to them. "Now then, fellow Psychics and Arceus, make a circle around me." Calyrex requested as they nodded and formed around him while the others watched on.

Calyrex closed his eyes and concentrated as everyone activated their psychic powers as psychic beams struck Calyrex, where a magic-like circle appeared below Calyrex. "Fascinating… I can reach through beyond the cosmos with this boosted power." Calyrex said.

"Can you locate Blake?" Mewtwo asked.

"Locating her now… oh, what kind of station is this?" Calyrex wondered. "The BSL station… aha, Blake is there." He said as he let his mind wander into Blake's. "Blake… can you hear me?"

"Agh! Who… who said that?!" Blake yelped, her voice could be heard outside of the circle.

"Blake…" Weiss whispered, her heart nearly breaking at the sound of Blake's distressed voice. It even had Seer be worried.

"Blake… it's me, Calyrex."

"Caly… is that you?"

"Indeed it is, child. Everyone's been a bit worried about you. You left your Pokemon here, your Absol, Seer, has been on edge, your family is worried… Weiss won't stop worrying about you…"

Weiss immediately blushed when Calyrex mentioned her.

"I'm sorry for leaving my Pokemon there… I thought it'd be an in and out mission… I thought for sure I'd be back as quick as I left."

"Hmm, that does makes sense."

"Wait… how can you communicate with me from far away? I thought it was a thirty mile radius."

"You can thank me for that, Blake." Mewtwo said.

"And me." Arceus chimed in.

"Arceus? Mewtwo?"

"What are we, chopped liver? We're helping too!" Xena said.

"Xena…"

"Hey! Don't leave me out!" Ness said.

"Hi Blake!" Zelda smiled.

"Ness… Zelda… you're all helping Calyrex reach out to me?"

"Indeed, because of these psychics, I'm able to reach out to anyone throughout the entire universe. We thought we'd check in on you just to put Weiss's mind at ease."

"Oh, so we're chopped liver…" Sun mumbled.

"Shhh!" Ilia quieted him.

"Thank you… I needed this..."

"You seem to be troubled. What is the cause of it?"

"Well… it was… I… mm… aaagh… oh god… I- It was this thing and these Parasites are-"

Calyrex immediately turned his head, seeing Blake's panic had caused her family to be worried as he immediately around. "Blake, I can tell that you're about to hyperventilate. Do me a favor and take a deep breath." He requested as they all heard Blake inhaling deeply and exhaling a few times to control her breathing.

"Alright…"

"Now, please… tell me everything."

"O-Okay… so, we were originally on SR-388 to help some Galactic Federation folks to sample some specimens over there. Then all of a sudden, we see this blob-like creature but they were able to take a sample of it. They find out that this thing was known as an X-Parasite, known to invade and rapidly reproduce and killing its host, not to metion it absorbs the host's DNA and mimics it."

"Wh-what?!" Zelda said in surprise.

"You're joking, right?!" Xena said.

"I wish I was… and to make matters worse, it had infected Samus. It nearly killed her but they were able to kill it with Metroid DNA, but now she's susceptible to the cold… however, now there's a psychotic X-Parasite mimicking Samus known as the SA-X and… it's known to not hold back at all, and we all know what Samus is like when she's not holding back!"

"Holy shit…" Dark Xena could only say.

"Good heavens…" Kali whispered while a chill ran up Weiss's spine.

"That's all we needed to hear…" Sun groaned while Ilia was left speechless.

"Yeah… but thankfully, Samus is able to absorb the Parasites because she's part Metroid now and the Metroids fed off of those. Oh… and speaking of Metroids, there's a damned Malicious Metroid wandering around this place and making our lives a living hell, and it's also mutating so THAT'S fun! …Not!"

"So aside from this Metroid and a killer Samus on the loose… how has the mission been going for you?"

"Well, at first it was going rather well… then we had a few nasty encounters with the SA-X, but then we get to that stupid Metroid. For some reason, it thought my aura was a tasty snack and now it stole 95% of my aura! 10% as an Alpha and then more of that as a damned Gamma!"

"She's getting agitated…" Ilia whispered. "…Wait, WHAT'S this about an aura stealing Metroid?!"

"…Is that Ilia? I swear I just heard her."

"Yes, Ilia is here. Along with Sun, Weiss, your parents and Seer." Calyrex said.

"Oh! Hi guys… sorry about not taking you with me, Seer… I know you've probably been worried sick…"

"Sol! Sol!"

"Yeah… my bad, I didn't think it'd be THIS crazy either."

"Blake, I'm curious about something!" Sun said. "How did you let this Metroid suck your aura dry?"

"First it acted like a mosquito and then it decided, as a SPIDER, to freakin' kidnap me and, pardon my language here, put me into a fucking trance and sucked me nearly dry for a few minutes!"

"Oh sweet Hylia…" Zelda whispered.

"Hooray, it's getting worse…" Ness groaned.

"Surely, things have been looking up from there?" Arceus asked.

"I WISH!" She yelled, her sudden change of tone was enough to startle all of them. "We're currently in a flooded sector and we took down this beast called Serris… and get this, it's fucking fast underwater! And to top it all off, it flooded the area until everything was covered. And you want to know the BEST part? I FUCKING GOT EATEN ALIVE BY THAT MONSTROSITY AND I ALSO FUCKING DROWNED! Yeah! You heard me! DROWNED!"

"Oh gods, she's losing it…" Weiss said in horror. "Eaten alive and drowned and she's… acting like this…"

"Eaten alive?!" Kali and Ghira said in horror.

"Sol Sol Absol!" Seer cried.

"Oh Hylians… I've never heard her so stressed out…" Zelda said sadly.

"Shit… this is awful…"

"Agreed…" Xena nodded.

"And because of THAT shitfest, I'm afraid to go into the water because who knows what'll happen next! I don't even want to look at another fish for a while and… and…. AAAAAAH! I! FUCKING! HATE! EEEEELS!"

"Blake, for heaven's sake, breathe!" Calyrex requested. "I know it's one thing to vent but I don't think it's wise to vent all in one breath!"

"Haaa… haaaah… sorry… my bad… this whole thing has been stressful and… I don't know if it's gonna get better."

"Why don't you come over for a while and take a deep breath, collect your thoughts and go back? That'd do you some good." Mewtwo advised.

"No… I can't do that. I made it my personal mission to destroy this X-Parasite and the SA-X. It's already infected SR-388 and the BSL station. Who knows what'll happen if it gets out and starts infecting everything at once! I know a lot of you are strong, but I don't think you guys can withstand an entire army of X-Parasites… and, well… ever since Samus got infected, she's been weakened hard by this so we're trying to boost her strength up. I know Rosalina can handle herself, but… I don't think even she'd be enough to stop it, considering that only Samus can safely absorb these things. I'm not allowing the SA-X or the Parasites to get out and wreak havoc on Remnant."

"…I understand." Arceus said. "It is noble of you to try and stop this galactic threat, along with your team. But please… take it easy on yourself and put your mind at ease. Your mental health is concerning right now."

"Right.. I… I need to calm myself before I get even worse… I miss you all so much…"

"That tears it…" Weiss said. "Blake!"

"Weiss!"

"Alright, I've heard enough… just please… come back safely okay? This whole mission is concerning me, as is everyone. We're all worried about you. Just… please… don't die…"

"I won't… I'm gonna make sure of it. If anything is gonna die here, it's that stupid SA-X and that damned Metroid. You can count on it."

Weiss smiled. "That's great… because once you come back, I'm gonna give you the biggest hug imaginable."

"Your hugs are the best… oh, and Sun, can you hear me?"

"Loud and clear, kitty cat!"

"Take care of Weiss… because I imagine I'm gonna be gone for a while longer…"

"You can count on me, girl! When you come back, I'll give ya a big kiss!"

"Aww, how sweet… dad, don't kill him."

"I'm not going to."

"Gah, then why are you holding me in a choke hold!" Sun grunted, hearing a snicker from Ilia.

"Blake… just please… kill those things before they infect us all!" Ilia requested.

"Right!"

"Honey… please, just be safe. We all love you so very much… just come back safely!" Kali pleaded.

"I will… I'm not leaving until this thing is done for. I love you all! And… talking to you has put my mind at ease a bit. Weiss… tell Ruby and Yang I said hi."

"Will do." Weiss said.

"Take care… and wish SPBRR luck. I think we all need it." Blake said.

"We will. Take care." Calyrex said as the psychics cut off the communication.

"…I'll be right back." Weiss said as she walked off.

"And where are you going?" Mewtwo asked.

"To get Azure… and to have you guys teleport us and Seer to that BSL Station!" Weiss said as she continued walking.

"Whoa, hold up!" Zelda said, using Farore's Wind to teleport in front of Weiss and held her by the shoulders. "That's a bad idea!"

"Why shouldn't I go? You heard Blake! This whole operation is stressing her out! If we had more people there, we can help SPBRR!"

"Yeah, I get that, but there's no need to be hasty!"

"She's right. As much as we want to go there and kick some X-Parasite ass… we think it's best if we let them handle it." Xena said.

"As much as I'm worried about Blake… we need to have faith." Ghira said with Kali nodding.

"Indeed." Arceus walked over. "I understand your frustrations and worry, but if we send back up, it might cause the X-Parasite problem to get worse and unwittingly stress SPBRR even further. We all need to have faith in them. I realize that she is your teammate and best friend, but I believe Blake can handle this."

Weiss sighed. "You're probably right… even if I used my Fierce Deity powers, would… that be enough…?"

"I hate to admit it, but we ought to let Blake and the others handle it… even if a killer Samus clone is wreaking havoc." Ilia said.

"Not to mention about that particular Metroid… eugh…" Ness shuddered.

"Ilia! ILLIIIIIAAAA!" A voice called out as they turned to see Mercedes and Annette running to them.

"Huh?" Ilia wondered as they got closer before Mercedes collapsed from exhaustion, but Ilia immediately caught her girlfriend while Annette fell, sprawled out on the ground.

"Goodness… I… I never ran so fast in my life…" Annette gasped for air.

"Sweetie, Annette, what's wrong?" Ilia asked.

"It's… it's horrible…" Mercedes could only say.

"Big… big… crazy… murderous… dragon… space!" Annette panted. "Gah… give me… five minutes…!"

"What's going on?" Weiss asked.

"They had witnessed Ridley leaving the Smash Mansion." A voice said as Sienna approached them. "To make matters worse, he went off into the same direction as SPBRR." She explained.

"He… and his fellow space pirates…" Mercedes took a deep breath to control her breathing. "They're on their way to SPBRR right now."

"WHAT?!" Everyone yelled.

Meanwhile… in hyperspace…

"We're about a few minutes to the BSL Station." A Zebesian said.

"Excellent." Ridley smirked.

"Sir! We have a transmission coming in!"

"Patch it through." He ordered as a scientist popped up in front of it.

"Hello, Master Ridley."

"Ah, greetings. I take it everything is going smoothly at the station?"

"Yes… however, we have a small hiccup. A team by the name of SPBRR is working their way around the station and messing up our plans as we speak."

"Meh, why should I care about SPBRR?"

"Because, SPBRR is led by Samus Aran."

Ridley perked up at the mention of Samus. "Samus, you say? Who else is on this team?"

"A rodent, a cat girl, a woman with bangs over her eye with magical abilities and a robot."

"Fascinating!" Ridley smirked and chuckled darkly. "And they're at the BSL station?"

"That is correct, Master Ridley."

"Most intriguing…" Ridley smirked darkly. "I'll be there momentarily… I'm mostly interested in the Metroid breeding but I wouldn't mid having some fun with that bounty huntress. Mhmhmhmhm…"

"I look forward to your visit." The hologram cut off.

"Hopping out of hyperspace in three… two…. One!" A Zebesian said as they got out of hyperspace, where they would see the BSL Station in front of them.

Ridley smirked. "Make way for the station. It's time we paid that bounty hunter a visit."

It's bad enough that an Aura stealing Metroid and the SA-X are prowling about the station, but now Ridley has come to join the fray!

EDIT: I just noticed I wrote up "immune to the cold" instead of susceptible. Whoops. Fixed it!
