The scientist was seen packing the container with the baby metroid in a backpack before the door explodes behind him as space pirates enter the room and aim their guns at the scientist who puts his hands up.

"Come on guys, can't we talk about this" the scientist said as Ridley enters the room and then stands in front of the scientist and notices the backpack on the table and then walks up to the table and shoves the scientist out of the way who fell onto the floor.

"No stop, you can't have that" the scientist shouted out as Ridley rips the bag in half and notices the baby metroid in it's container and grins as the scientist notices a wrench and grabs it and then smacks Ridley with it and then turns to face the scientist with a glare and a snarl as the scientist drops the wrench as Ridley then impales him with his tail as the scientist grunts in pain before Ridley pulls his tail out of him as the scientist falls onto the floor as Ridley turns to face the space pirates.

"Call the others, let's get out of here" Ridley ordered as the space pirates nod and then run down the corridor as Ridley walks off after them.

Samus & Anthony were seen running down the corridor as the space pirates run round the corner as they notice Samus and start shooting at her as she and Anthony hide behind cover as Samus looks behind cover to notice Ridley holding the baby metroid.

"They have the creature i found, they must not escape with it!" Samus said before she and Anthony fire at the space pirates as Ridley roars and points at the duo as the space pirates start firing at them as Anthony pulls out a grenade and pulls the pin and throws it at the space pirates as Ridley notices it a bit too late as he and the space pirates are knocked back by the explosion as he grunts in pain before noticing a dead body next to him and crawls towards him and starts eating some of it as his wounds heal as Anthony walks down the corridor and aims at Ridley.

"Alright big guy, put the container down, and put your hands up!" Anthony threatened as Ridley uses his tail to smack the gun out of his hand as it fell onto the floor before smacking Anthony with his tail as he fell onto the floor as Ridley grins as Samus stopped in between Ridley & Anthony.

"Sorry Samus, you lose" Ridley said before pulling out a smoke bomb as Samus aims her arm cannon at him as Ridley throws it at Samus, making her lose visual contact as Ridley walked off down the corridor and then towards a hole in the wall and flies out of it while holding the baby metroid as the space pirate ship flies off after him.

The smoke soon clears as Samus notices Ridley was gone as she runs off down the corridor and notices the hole in the wall and looks out of it before turning back to face Anthony who was unconscious on the floor as Samus run towards him and kneels down in front of him and checks his pulse to discover he still has one.

"Still breathing" Samus said before picking up Anthony and walks off down the corridor while carrying him.

Anthony wearing a hospital gown instead of his armor was still unconscious on a bed in the first aid room as Samus without her armor was sitting down next to him as Adam soon enters and notices the duo.

"Samus i can't believe this, you injured one of my men, instead of calling of backup" Adam said to her with a glare.

"Adam, they wouldn't have got to Ridley in time, he got away, and he's got the creature i brought back" Samus said.

"See this is why you need a team, in case something like this happened, you have let Ridley get away too many times, it's time for you to listen to my orders from now on" Adam said to her as Samus sighs as Anthony was heard grunting and then starts to slowly wake up and notices Adam & Samus.

"Commander, Samus, what happened?" Anthony asked.

"Take it easy Anthony, Ridley really did one on you" Samus said to him as Anthony starts to get up slowly while holding his chest.

"I'm surprised you actually managed to survive Ridley, not many people do, i guess that makes it two people" Adam said as Anthony notices his armor on a table next to him as he walks towards him.

"Now get your armor you two, we leave in 10 minutes" Adam ordered.

"Where are we going sir?" Anthony asked.

"A planet called Zebes, we tracked Ridley & his space pirates to that planet, must be where their base is at, we get to the planet, kill Ridley & the space pirates, and bring that creature back" Adam said before walking off as Samus armor appears on her as Anthony takes his hospital gown off and puts the armor on before turning to face Samus who was still looking at him.

"I should have asked you to turn around" Anthony said with a blush.

"Don't bother, it's not the first time i saw two moons" Samus joked while walking off as Anthony chuckles and walks off after Samus.

Adam was seen with the other members of the 07th Platoon onboard as Samus & Anthony board the ship and sit down in seats.

"Alright men, and woman, strap yourselves in, it's going to be a bumpy ride, next stop, Zebes" Adam said who turns the ship and pilots it away from the space colony as Samus looks out the window to notice the space colony as Anthony looks at her.

"Don't worry Samus, we'll get that baby back, we have never failed a rescue mission" Anthony said.

"That is true Mr. Higgs" Adam said to Anthony.

"I hope so, because kidnapping a baby alien is not cool, unless Ridley knows about what it can do, if he could learn it's full potential, it could wipeout the entire universe" Samus said.

"Then we better act fast and stop him before he does that" Adam said.

"How long is it till we get there sir?" Another solider named Lyle asked.

"We'll be there in actually 2 hours" Adam replied as the ship continues flying off through space.
