Destruction was sprawled out before Samus Aran. Flames spread through the ancient Chozo ruins. She watched, holding back tears. The Chozo were her only family, she had been searching for things about them. The planet she was on, Tallon IV, was hit with a Leviathan, a Phazon meteorite. It infected their planet, and for years they waited for her, the Hatchling, to save them.

They were dead before she even arrived, perhaps the Phazon could even injure their spirits, harming them after death. "Well, I came! I came and i killed the Great Worm! Goodbye, Chozo, and thank you!" Samus shouted. She went back in her ship, and she flew away. "What had happened? The Phazon suit is gone... and Ridley is gone, the Pirates won't be able to bring him back, the Chozo beams that wiped him out fried his DNA, making it unrecognizable. How do I remember that, but not the Metroid Prime?" Samus was knocked out of her daze by a blinking red GF symbol on her compuer's screen.

She tapped the symbol, and it widened and showed a live video feed of a GF agent. "Samus Aran, you just battled a creature known as the Metroid Prime. Before the battle, you battled Meta Ridley, he was defeated. You have just performed incredible feats, but it is far from over." He said. "What is your name?" Samus said. "My name is Commander Sazel." He said, he looked like he was 20, yet was still able to become a commander. "Well, Commander Sazel, what in hell makes you think I care?" Samus said, annoyed that the Galactic Federation would even bother asking after the mission she just endured. "Well, it is more of what isn't in hell." Sazel said. "What?" Samus said. "Well... Ridley is still alive, if you wish to know more, then go to the Federation base, Plozzor Inum." Sazel said.

The message disappeared, and Samus commanded the ship to fly torwards the Federation base. Her ship had refilled her weapons, and then its different plates started to glow, and the engine started to blaze. The ship moved back for a moment, and then it launched forward. The ship went incredibly fast, it was given to her by Veriveros, the Chozo elder that had taken her in. The Federation had always had something to do with her missions. The base was soon in sight, it was a huge ship, it was like a large, rectangular shape. The base had a long, cylindrical control station at the end of it.

Samus pulled into the docking bay. She was greeted by four Federation Troops. "Welcome, you may enjoy our complimentary cafe." They said. Samus walked toward the entrance to the base. Inside, there were several doors to the side, and up the hall were two turns, she looked down each hallway, and on the left one hall had a door with small sign marked 'cafe'. Samus walked in, and saw a line of carts with food, sausage, ommelettes, toast, bagels, et cetera. She was confused. She looked at the clock in her Varia suit, and it was 8:06 AM. "Wow, must have lost track of the time." Samus thought to herself. She took off her Varia suit (Because the suit will dull any feelings of hunger while being worn, so the only way to actually know how hungry she is is to take off the suit. However, if she is dying from hunger, the system will infrom her.)

She stacked up her plate with a bagel, an omelette, donuts, and bacon. She sat down to eat, wondering about Ridley. Thinking about that evil creature. Samus was ready to kill him again, and gain, and again, the Space Pirates only help her by bringing Ridley back, so she can feel the pleasue of killing him each time.

She had finished eating, and walked out, and entered the door in the other hall, marked 'conference room'. When she entered, she saw Sazel. "Samus, I am glad to see you came." Sazel said. The conference room they were in was impressive, it was circular, and tall, with circular catwalks that want across the distance of the wall, with a large, circular hole in the center, all at different levels. Between the different catwalks were holographic screens, that showed different images. "Wow, this is an impressive room. Now, tell me about Ridley." Samus demanded. "As you wish." Sazel reached over to a holo-screen, and grasped it, the data swirled around his fist, he pulled his hand away, the data still on it. He stretched his arm out, and released. The data formed a screen, and on it was Ridley's data files. Samus read the screen, it read this:

Ridley

Species: Ridley

Species Rarity: One

System of Origin: Turgus System

History: Destroyed Samus Aran's homeworld. Battled Samus on Planet Zebes. Presumed dead.

Strength: 1000/1000

"That was Ridley's original file. This is Meta-Ridley's file." Sazel slid his finger across Ridley's file, and it changed to Meta-Ridley's file. It read:

Meta-Ridley

Species: No Official Species, Design Similar to Ridley.

Species Rarity: One.

History: First Spotted on Space Pirate Frigate. Presumably Destroyed by Samus Aran. Information Collected Through Ship Updates.

Strength: 950/1000

"Why are you showing me these?" Samus asked. "Because, Space Pirates have been making new Ridley designs, with different abilities. They cloned multiple Ridley creatures, all using the designs Space Pirates have been working on. Fortunatley, each clone can use only one of the designs, for they will be killed if they have more than one of these. The Pirates have a device that keeps making Ridley clones, and one that gives them the ability designs." Sazel said. "Well, I am surprised you aren't trying to get me to save the device so you can use it." Samus said. "Not quite, it will weaken the soldier that is copied. You would be able to beat them easily, but the abilities will give them advantages against you. Beware, we will also give you a special weapon, this is called the Arm Laser, you can flick your wrist to activate, and you can launch it out like a beam, and it will regenerate. All of our soldiers use them. Good luck Samus." Sazel said, he saluted, and all Hell broke loose. The dragon that destroyed Samus' homeworld came crashing down.
