Metroid Prime: The Phazon Experiments

Original Story Concepts and Ideas: Nintendo
As with any fan fiction, I do not own any of the mentioned characters, items, or ideas related to Nintendo's "Metroid Prime" created by Retro Studios; however, the character Captain Hunter is my creation implemented into this story if he appears. In lame man terms, don't sue me please (.
Note from the author:
Before we begin with Samus Aran's latest adventure please be forewarned that this will probably be a very long fanfiction with multiple chapters. I hope to make this my best known fanfic. I hope anyway. Metroid Prime: The Phazon Experiments is nothing more then a retelling of the events in Metroid Prime through the eyes of Samus Aran and possible scenes between other characters. I don't know yet ( please sit back and enjoy Samus' true second adventure into the depths of Tallon IV.
Chapter 1 Orpheon's Cargo
Orpheon Frigate
"It would seem that the creature has become very erratic over the last few treatments sir," the lowly Space Pirate reported to a much larger Wave Trooper typing information into a console screen before him.
"Is there any brain damaged from the treatment that could cause such behavior?"
"No sir. An ultrasound scan indicates that the being is completely void of any physical damage to the brain or any other part of its body for that matter. The creature has been successfully sedated and it seems that this creature has the ability to shoot a weapon-grade energy blast from its mouth."
"That's very interesting. I'm positive that the general will be pleased with the current results. As for the creature, keep it sedated and move it to the reactor core where it can be constrained by the force field. I need a complete report by the end of the day. Understood?"
"Yes sir", the pirate replied saluting his superior officer before leaving his presence.
The Wave trooper typed in a few commands on his console bringing up a communications screen. "General Sir, there is good news regarding." he began before getting cut off by the officer on the other side.
"I'm in the middle of something right now if you don't mind. You had better learn when to make the right move buddy because you are this close to being thrown off of my ship. Is that understood", he yelled back at the now terrified Wave Trooper.
"Yes sir, I'm sorry sir", he stuttered in reply before clearing the communications channel.

A hefty man with short brown hair and a messy mustache slammed a portfolio on his desk causing his nearby drink to splatter on the glistening wood surface. He slid the file across the table. "Do you know what this is?"
"It seems to be intercepted communications", the young blonde haired lady answered smugly. "What about it?"
"These are interceptions of Space Pirate communications. It seems you didn't quite dwindle their forces like you had so told us."
"I told you when I got back that I wasn't sure how many there were", she retorted crossing her arms over her white T-shirt. Samus Aran and Chief Hardy had been having a nice conversation before a field agent had dropped the bomb on Samus' previous meetings with the Space Pirates by dropping off communications between them. Hardy had as usual lost his temper quite easily and had been spouting off at Samus. "So why not just send in a team to take them out. You know where they are."
"We would Samus but then we wouldn't know what they were up too. It seems that, according to these records, the pirates have a freighter class frigate named Orpheon orbiting the planet Tallon IV."
Samus threw a concerned glance toward the chief upon hearing the name of the planet. Tallon IV was within the same solar system of her nearby adopted home world of Zebes. She remembered Old Bird telling her that survivors of the last Space Pirate raid on Planet Zebes had headed for either Amidos or Tallon IV. "So what do you want me to do?" She asked leaning forward on the desk now concerned for the safety of her people.
"Sending in a team would only scatter their forces. We need someone who will infiltrate them and gather information on what they are planning. Seeing you did such a wonderful job with the Zebes mission, I think you should be the one to do this. Here are the coordinates for the vessel. Your mission will be to destroy the Space Pirate menace on Tallon IV and collect as much information as you can on their future plans. I will put together a special task force team to help you carry out this."
"NO, like you said, if there is a team then they will likely abandon whatever it is they are doing and move there base elsewhere. If I go in alone though, they might not discover me, which in turn will have them thinking that one or more of there own are traitors."
"That's quite a possibility there. Very well, you shall take this mission alone then."

Red alarm lights and sirens began going off on the decks of the Orpheon. Pirates ran through the tight corridors of the ship, some holding there bleeding sides, others securing severed arms or legs, and still others lay dead on the ground. Escape modules had been deployed moments earlier sending the pirates toward the planet's surface.
"General the parasite in the reactor core has kept our squadrons at bay but the parasite in the Emergency Evacuation Area has been destroyed. The wounded are slowly dying", the pirate frantically called out on the COM LINK. "You should leave while you still have the chance sir."
"I can leave whenever I feel and no you cannot be dismissed either. Round up the remaining survivors to tend to the wounded. We need to get this place back up and running. We will deal with the Parasite Queen later."
"Yes sir", it replied going about to gather its fellow pirates.

"I've incorporated a few new features into your suit Samus. Some areas of Tallon IV have map stations. These stations can be used to download maps of your surrounding area. There is also a recharge station (save) where you can replenish your energy if you so need to. If by chance you are running low on munitions for your cannon you can replenish these in your ship. Be forewarned Samus that Tallon IV contains many threats. I want you to take the utmost precautions while you carry out your mission." Old Bird had been explaining new features added to Samus power suit for the last hour with Houston sitting on the side.
"You know I will Old Bird."
"I still wish you wouldn't have dyed your hair. The color was unique to you."
"Would you get over it already. I told you that I was going to try something different", she laughed hitting him playfully in the arm. "I'm glad to see you're worried too."
"Oh I'm worried alright, but I have no doubt in my mind that you can handle yourself. Just please be careful and if you need any help please don't be afraid to call me."
"Yeah right, you're just trying to get in on the bounty. Well it isn't going to work Houston Armstrong."
Houston began laughing before pulling Samus to him and locking lips with her. Old Bird interrupted the two, "Samus, you had better get going my child."
"Right Old Bird." Samus removed her clothing, except for the infamous black bikini she always wore under her power suit. She slowly slipped into the bulky armor leaning forward to pull the suits upper body toward her. With a hiss the suit pressurized. The suit was a piece of Chozo technology specially built to fit her human body and acted as a second skin for Samus who had grown accustomed to wearing the armor. Samus had kept her enhancements from the previous mission on Zebes including the missile launcher and the Varia attachments. Old Bird had managed to enhance the arm cannon by concentrating the power beams energy into a single point allowing it to charge up before being fired. Samus pulled back her long blonde hair into a ponytail before putting her helmet on, careful not to get any hair caught around the seal. Samus slid the arm cannon onto her right hand and twisted it on locking it into place. Samus nodded to Old Bird and Houston before entering her ship.
Old Bird and Houston stepped back as the twin nuclear engines of the Hunter class Gunship kicked in throwing an invisible wind about the docking station. The green view port dimmed out as the ship engaged into drive and rose off of the platform. Houston and Old Bird waved at the ship until it diminished into the darkness of space.
"Good luck Protector of the Chozo", Old Bird said before heading toward the door with Houston close on his heels.
