It must be difficult

Summary

Short crossover. Olimar and Billy have a conversation.

It must be difficult

"It must be difficult..." Says Olimar, looking at the human child sitting next to him.

"What?" Reply Billy aka Commander Keen.

"To save the world, your world, again and again and again. You're just a child..."

"I am smarter than you, Captain."

"IQ has nothing to do with it. You should have a normal life, like my own children Omar and Opal. Not risk your life without anyone knowing."

"... Maybe, but I have no choice."

"I don't have the choice of working either, but it's not the same thing. Saving the world is something I'll never be able to do."

"Yet you survived on PNF-404."

"True, but still..." Olimar looks at the time. "I'd better be heading back. If I fall late on this delivery, Steve, well the President is going to kill me!"

"I don't think he's really going to kill you but go for it."

"I hope I can talk with you again."

"With you too, Captain. Goodbye."

"Goodbye."
