The Ark

The Ark is the one hundred seventeenth issue of the series.

Plot
Samus brings the key over to the Ark, but when she prepares to turn it, the Future Writer blasts it into the "on" position, activating the structure. The High Prophet of Truth asks the Future Writer why he's running away to his "bomb shelter", and the Future Writer informs him that the Halos are superweapons, not religious artifacts. The Ark opens up, firing a massive laser into the sky, and the Halos all override their standby position and prepare to fire in fifteen minutes.
