Galleon dove out of the way and hit the side of the button. "Get out of here Naroz before it looses interest in me" Galleon said. He aimed his charged fire all at the little creature when it leaped into the air and hit it in the stomach knocking it back into the water.
Galleon ran to the back wall and took some of the explosive plant and laid it on the ground in front of him in a line then he ran back and picked the remainder of the plant and tucked it away.
"Get out of the way before that thing blows that up" said Galleon as he turned and ran.This may seal us off from the other caverns but we have the plant and we can always find other ways. I hope...

"DON'T TOUCH IT!" Naroz yelled, the Gamma metroid was quicker than Galleon anticipated and seeing that there was nowhere to run in the tiny chamber, the explosion caught all of them, blowing a hole into the floor.
Naroz was knocked against the wall and slowly tumbled down into the dark pits of SR388. His warning had come late, but he was unconscious. Unaware of how the explosion might have effected Galleon or what had happened to the Gamma metroid.
This could be the end...

Galleon was blasted against the wall. Before he slipped into unconsciousness he saw the Gamma explode into 2 parts, It's head and It's body.
Galleon looked up and wondered where he was was. Then it all came back to him..."Run Naroz" as the plant exploded. "Huh" Galleon gasped. "Naroz."
Galleon ran over to the whole and looked down. It was a long dark drop. I wonder if Naroz survived the fall. Galleon looked for any crevices in the rock face to scale down. Just a few feet to his right there was almost a ladder formed by the uneven rock. He walked over to it and started lowering himself down the rock. I got you in there. Now I'm getting you out

Meanwhile in outer space just outside of SR388 "Fleet confirmation complete... there is no sing of commander Naroz, nor Private Galleon..." The radio recording was being sent from an outgoing fleet to the federation space facility. Nearly all of the team members had made it back, Galleon and Naroz were the only two who had fallen victim to space pirates, X parasites and metroids. "Transmission received. A search party will be commissioned once the planet has been scanned." The voice spoke, and there was a pause. "Naroz is one of our best men! I think more immediate action should be taken!" one of the soldiers spoke out. "Know your place private. The death of two is not as bad as the death of more..." The transmission was cut off. It could be a while before any help would make it to Naroz or Galleon. * * * ' Why are there space pirates here?' ' Look out! ' Commander Sagin! COMMANDER!!!!!!' A drop of cold, painful water dripped onto Commander Naroz's face as he winced staring up at the pitch black ceiling. His head throbbed, and his legs were either broken or extremely close to it. His left arm wasn't moving, but he could move his right arm quite freely. He then realized that was because he was putting on his armor, but somehow the past few hours seemed foggy. At least half of his body was saved from the fall, but he could tell that he hadn't fallen directly downward. He must've been pushed into a side cavern noticing how dim the lightning was. He managed to put on his helmet, which luckily had been strapped onto his suit. He turned on the night vision and looked around for any signs of metroids. The cavern was currently uninhabited and he tried sitting up, but with no luck. After hours of struggling and worming he managed to free out his federation automatic laser weapon. He was afraid he would die in this place, but he was confidant that Galleon, who was wearing his armor would be in a much better position. It wasn't really the privates fault for moving the plant in the metroid's way, after all it was a life or death situation. Surely the Gamma metroid was destroyed, after all it was right on top of the explosion. He could remember his dream... his dream of Commander Sagin. "I wonder... why?" he asked himself, thinking about how he was going to die, unless Galleon found him before the metroids did.

Galleon was climbing down the what seemed like a bottomless hole. This hole is so deep I wonder if Captain Naroz survived the fall Galleon wondered sadly. He put on his night vision because it was getting quite dark as he climbed.
What seemed like hours later he could finally see the ground. His muscles were aching from the long descent. But, no matter how much he hurt he had to find Captain Naroz. Galleon saw that there were 2 passages. '50/50 shot' he thought. Then he decided to go to the left.
Galleon walked into the passage and realized it wasn't a passage at all but a doorway. For what lay on the other side was a large expanse of nests. Many nests, for what he believed belonged to war wasps. He quickly got into the other room before any of them saw him.
Now he knew. Naroz was in the other passage or he's dead from the war wasps. Galleon headed over to the other passage which he follow for a little bit until he saw light up ahead. Is it Naroz or a space pirate?

Two hours had passed.
Captain Naroz's suit had told him so. Even the basic functions of his suit were still working poperly, yet he couldn't move to save himself. Even if Galleon found him it would take more than one man to get him out of here. The only way they could do it is with a radio. He had spent the past hour and a half taking the reserve charge from his gun and fusing it with a section of his armor interface.
"Galleon... can you read me?" Naroz spoke into the short term communicator he had built. If Galleon found him, then they could construct a long range radio and contact headquarters. Buy sacrificing their armor interfacing, they could make a radio that would reach the federation and then a rescue team would be there and everything would turn out just fine. They were in the depths of SR388, the majority of the predators went up to feed, and chances were that they would be safe for another five or so hours.
"Galleon, follow...Zxr My signal...Naroz radioed, taping into the privates armor interface.

Galleon, follow...Zxr My signal Galleon heard over his radio. It's Naroz. Naroz I got your signal. I will be there in a little bit... Galleon radioed. Galleon, with renewed hope broke into a run. He was about to find Naroz. Galleon ran until he came to the end of the tunnel. The signal was picking up. Galleon was in a room with 6 tunnels leading out. He walked to the first door. "Nope." He walked to the next door. "Nope." Galleon went to the third door. "Here it is. The signal" Galleon said. I'm coming Capt. Naroz

"Galleon!" Naroz managed to yell out hoarsely. His makeshift model had worked, and now they could make a radio that could communicate with the federation. His chances of survival jumped considerably, but they would have survive without their armor for a day at most. It was risky but they would have to try.

Galleon heard his name. "Naroz" Galleon yelled back. Galleon ran as fast as his tired legs would take him. He reached the end of the tunnel and saw Naroz laying there. "I'm here. Everything will be all right" Galleon said soothingly.

"Enough with the pleasantries Galleon, we must build the radio. You need to remove your armor so that I can fuse the wiring..." Naroz managed to lean himself against the cavern wall. He hoped that soon they would get in contact with the federation. "Getting rescued is our top priority, along with reporting of space pirate activities..." he said working with the interface of his own suit.

Galleon took off his suit and handed it to Naroz I hope we can survive without our suits. Galleon handed the explosive plant to Naroz."I took this before the explosion. I kept it from exploding by putting into my suit. "We have a chance of being rescued" Galleon said hopefully.

Naroz finished building the radio as he looked up at the ceiling hopefully. With the fusing of both suits he managed to make a strong enough frequency to reach an outgoing fleet. However, it wasn't a constructed so that he communicate directly, he had to use a code. There was a long pause before a furry of waves came into the receiver in the form of beeps and bops. Naroz listened to it and began to translate it into something more understandable. "It looks like they've pinpointed our location...now about the space pirates who were freely roaming around the planet's surface..." Naroz muttered sending a few more messages and then waiting again. * * * "Sir! we have found out were Commander Naroz and private Galleon are! They are inside of the planet, the winding tunnels of SR388. We need to send a team at once!" the transmission from the fleet went out to the military base and there was a pause. "We will send our own team, you men get back and rest." The order came swift and the men in the space ships talked among themselves. "We know Naroz...he is our leader... we aren't even close to being tired, I know we can get him..." one soldier said and the others nodded. "Yes... we can rescue them...but... we can't disobey orders..." another said glumly and the other seemed to mull about. "But there are space pirates there!" one spoke and they quickly turned on the transmitter. "Sir! Naroz has reported that there is space pirate activity...we need to act as soon as possible! Requesting four teams to retrieve the commander and investigate the planet for suspcious activity!" the private barked into the intercom and there was another long pause. "Hold your position in till I tell you to! Disobey my orders and you will be held trial and relieved from the military!" the order was not what the troops were expecting. They were originally going to get to return to the base, but now they were suspended to their position. "Damn it!" one soldier cursed.

"You did it" said Galleon happily. "Now we can get back home." Naroz is a smart man... I am lucky to have him with me. "Do you think the rescue teams will have trouble with the pirates? This planet has high pirate activity on the surface after all"said Galleon. They are trained men by Naroz they should be fine... thought Galleon trying to pull himself to believe that the troops were going to get thought without to much trouble.

"We are not so lucky soldier...we have to wait...something is not right. This entire mission made no sense, and in any other situation the Federation would have sent legions of troops to go and eradicate the space pirates...however, their activity was only found now...it must be a hit and run operation..." Naroz was mostly speaking his thoughts, as he tried to remember the original briefing they had received before embarking on the mission. They were sent to investigate remains of the station... which should have burned up during the process of entering the atmosphere of SR388.
Yet why were there SA-X running about? They were all destroyed with the BLS. The original rumor was that certain parts of the station had been ejected and were not totally destroyed, yet over that many years the X had not yet fully taken over the planet. This was because there were metroids here...something did not make sense. "Why...why were we sent here?" He asked half hysterical. "It will be a day before the new rescue team gets here...I don't like this one bit...if I can't recover my movements by then...you must go off and hide. I do not trust the federations decision."

"This must be a dummy mission to see what was going on on SR388. I think that the ships that they sent were just supposed to report back to HQ on the pirate and metroid activity" he said wonderingly. i wonder if this is the end.. Galleon thought with dispare.
"We need to think of a way to save Captain Naroz and Galleon without disobeying orders" said one of the Naroz's men. The other nodded their approval.
