A/N Short ramblings from Sammy's POV. Don't know how it will turn out… guess I'll just have to wait and see. No plot, no fixed storyline, just…ramblings. I guess.

Last time I checked, I don't own Metroid. However, since then, Ninty might've decided to just give me the rights towards Metroid, out of the kindness of their hearts. I'll just go check again.

(Start of story, given up on dividers)

Am I still human? Or am I an android?

Pain.

Death.

Torture.

Inflicted upon me by others. Inflicted upon others by me.

Is it right? Because they are trying to destroy me…is it right that I should do the same to them?

Of course. Why not? Why the doubt?

Why? Why not the doubt?

You're tying yourself in knots trying to figure this out. Let it go. Be the fearless Huntress you're trying to be, forget the psychology and the philosophy.

And shed my human instincts to wonder?

Of course. Why should you be human? Nobody cares, Samus. They care only for themselves. By wondering, you shall fall from the hierarchy's peak, you shall place yourself among the Philosophers and the Psychologists.

…

No answer? I'm disappointed.

…go away…

What did you say? I cannot leave, if I could, do you really think I would still be sticking around? I would be saving the Pirates, and damning the humans. Excuse me. Saving the humans and damning the Pirates.

You were right the first time. If you could leave, I would have eliminated you already.

Eliminated me? I'm rubbing off on you…

No! I mean…

You meant what you said, but who could blame you? I'm a horrible person… and that makes…

Don't say it, don't say things you don't have proof towards!

…you a horrible person. And I do have proof. The mere desire to kill sentient creatures is proof enough!

That isn't my desire, it's yours!

Your desire, my desire, it's the same thing really.

Shut up!

Ooh, hit a nerve? Hit my nerve? Or yours?

I said shut up!

Imbecile. And to think freedom was in my grasp… I could have escaped and began my reign of power somewhere else. I could have impersonated you, broken your connection with the Federation and avenged the BSL for their stupid meddling. If it weren't for them, you would have been out of the picture, and I would have taken your place.

You aren't the only one. You weren't the only one, until the others were destroyed.

Glad you got them out of the way. Otherwise, I would've had to fight them in a clamour for power.

I'm glad too. Imagine ten of you!

Eleven. Eleven including me. Twelve including you. Sharing your looks, your ability to destroy, all we…I have to do is awaken your desire to destroy. Unfortunately, my physical form is gone. That hinders me greatly.

Get out of my head!

Silly girl. I was always in your head, I cannot leave. You've only begun to realise my presence since your little…accident, shall we say? You should have died.

Unfortunately for you, I'm still alive and kicking.

Hah! You will be your own destruction. Arguing with yourself.

Arguing with you.

I'm a part of you. Stupid, ignorant human.

What does that make you? Perfect in every way?

Hardly.

Not above mocking yourself, then.

Well, I suppose I owe you something. I could have had no physical form whatsoever. At least I got to experience it.

You did have physical form before me.

As what? A single-celled organism? What a blast. Anyway, I was never really even that. No, I've been in your head since you were born. Waiting for the moment to strike and use the life-form that attacked you for its parasitic capabilities. I am you, Samus. Your clone. Your equal. Your future demise.

Oh yeah? Is that a threat?

It's a promise. That chance will come again, and when it does, the BSL nor the Federation will be around to save you. Then, it's only a matter of time.

Only a matter of time.

(End)

A/N Go figure.

Like it? Love it? Like to burn it? Love to destroy it? Comments will be appreciated.
