Final Walk

Looking back nothing could stop the blackness that had corrupted the Colony. It was like a slow poison, taking hold, one by one it consumed the minds of the station.

They had assembled in their droves, like a pack of wild creatures they hissed and booed at me, the darkness in their eyes driving regret in my heart. I could see Flaming Metroidz standing on a raised platform in the colony port where my execution was to take place. Like a convicted man I walked my final walk, feeling every step, I knew they would be my last and my only steps. Flaming was beaming at me, but I saw in his eyes deep, a haunted look of a human who was being forced to do something he didn't want to.

He nodded to the person behind me, who undid my shackles and took a step back. Flaming gestured for me to kneel but I glared at him and stood up to face the crowd. "May my last words echo these halls for years to come. This injustice you will pass down to your offspring, upon all who follow you. For I will curse these halls! Ter shund incapteit! " The crowd was weary but Flaming began to laugh behind me,

"You think you have power here? We have the power now! Nothing can stop us!" Suddenly a huge bang from the floors above us. The crowd scattered in case any debris fell on them, even FMdz looked spooked. A hole had formed in the ceiling and swarms of animals came storming into the port, my plan had worked, soon the metroids would come. I looked back at FMdz expecting to see him standing white as a sheet in fear but he smiled. A sadistic smile only held by those with over exposure to phazon. He flicked a button and there was a huge explosion, the port was now a billowing wall of flame, I felt myself being thrown against a wall and pass out.
