Chapter 13: The Understanding, New Unity

As Shuzyn cradled the SA-X by her head, his tail stroked down her side gently, Samus had been sitting by and watching, there in her eyes were a greater kind of malice for this double...she had made the decision to save her life, to let her live; but it didn't mean that she could hold back her jealousy...why did she have to share her one love with this double? She had no idea why she was even considering it; something in her heart went out to the SA-X, a victim of her own emotions and creation...

"Saved me...Shu..zyn saved me." she said as she sat up and cupped his cheek, her now strange twisted form as it was revealed, beneath the armor; she had taken a more dragonic form from the DNA that she'd absorbed from him during their last mating...no she didn't have a tail or wings, but she did have the armored skin and more muscle mass on the way; yes she even seemed more powerful now that she'd been given the time to recover.

For the moment she was looking at him with a soft frown when she saw Samus there beside him, there she was wondering why they weren't fighting already?

"Does Shuzyn hate...me?" she asked with a frown, looking at him with a look of almost despair already...it tore her up that he said he hated her before, she was hoping for anything else in her heart that he felt for her.

Shuzyn didn't answer her at first, instead his touch was all he offered her now, a soft nuzzle to her cheek while he looked at her face.

"Understand my heart is nothing that I can explain good morning my dear; it is strange...this organ that beats blood into my and sends it all to my brain, makes me breathe and yet I can't say that I understand it." he didn't answer her directly with the words that he spoke.

All he could do was lead his gentle claws along her cheek, leading it back into her hair before he leaned up and kissed her gently; yes he pressed his lips into hers and immediately began to deepen it...he knew that she wanted this. Immediately her claws moved into his back, gripping at the powerful dragon's shoulders and bringing him forward against her. Yes, she shifted herself and rose slowly to her knees, she turned her body to face his while she returned the affection; panting rapidly now as her face shed tears of happiness, oh yes she desired to feel him kissing her and needing her.

"Understand, I don't fully trust you." the words came from Samus, who was watching the spectacle with jealousy well controlled in her eyes; she hadn't shot her surrogate 'sister' in arms yet, but she wanted to be heard, as obviously she wasn't going to be having Shuzyn and this female mating right in front of her; she knew those impulses well of her own accord.

The SA-X looked on slowly, letting the kiss go had looked to Samus and rested her hands around Shu's neck while she looked at him gently, at first she didn't say anything but the look in Shu's eyes and a stroke against her cheek spoke that he wished her to make peace.

"I...trust you a little bit, for saving me...but I love my Shuzyn..." she said as she looked at Samus, her reptilian eyes slowly focusing as she calmed down, she desperately needed Shuzyn inside of her; but that would need to wait.

"..." Samus said nothing at first and then shook her head at first before she had come to take a breath, no need to try and shoot her...no no, one step at a time.

She sighed a moment and really calmed down, the comment almost had her shooting the SA-X between the eyes with an ice missile, one thing stopping her was the fact that she was holding Shuzyn so close and he wouldn't appreciate that action of hers.

"...Look, personally I'd love to freeze you and leave you here to take my mate and leave, but no...I've come to understand, you love him as much as I do...with the same levels of intensities and needs burning inside of you. You are in one essence my sister, you've turned your back on the X and their wishes, am I right?" Samus asked her this, speaking all of what she thought and hoped to be true now.

Without any hesitation the look of trust became stronger in the SA-X's eyes, even a small smile coming to her face.

"Very big of you Samus, yes...the X and their wishes mean little to me; if you wish it...I will ally myself with you and our Shuzyn, is this acceptable?" her English seemed to get drastically improve with the need to be on guard not as great there.

For nothing but a moment, Samus took a moment but had eventually nodded to her and seemed to be thankful her instinct was right; a shared love might actually work here.

"Yes, I'd appreciate that since your old family is becoming more of a threat than thought before; I estimate there are at least 9 others of you, they need to go...we don't need them trying to get smart like this. I won't be willing to share Shu anymore than this." she said with a small grin, knowing this would get a rise out of her.

The SA-X had hissed at the thought of that and formed her arm cannon shortly afterwards, "Agreed, we can destroy them while they mean us harm; you may need to absorb one...I've estimated that you don't have your Ice Beam, but your ability to absorb will make this a possibility." she said finally giving up a secret that she had hoped not to reveal.

Samus gave her a light nod but didn't seem to react very much to that of course, a light thumbs up; as Samus leaned her head over Shu's shoulder and kissed him aggressively, growling into the kiss now she rubbed and kneaded over his chest from behind; groping his muscular form while she caressed his stomach and nibbled at his tongue, drawing his long forked tongue into her mouth while she fed from him this way; yes feeding her lust as she caressed over his stomach, she decided something for the three of them just now. They were going to let off the bad energy in a positive, she was going to show the SA-X now...this was how the alliance would form; sharing a mate in common would strengthen their effectiveness and willingness to protect one another.

As for now Shuzyn was the victim of both females and was laid on his back rather quickly, while Samus asserted herself over his lips and reminded him that he was submissive, the SA-X went to work on his body; something that seemed to be desired by both Samus and her 'sister' yes...this was something important that needed to happen it seemed. Poor Shu...the soon to be devastated but lucky victim of two aggressive huntresses.

(---Content Ahead---)

Samus stripped from her armor and continued to deeply french kiss the dragon beneath her, she had pinned his shoulders helplessly down on the ground, just enjoying the passion that she was free to exercise on him now; with the body of the SA-X at work, his muffled groan was loud and deep...it was growing with his need of being taken. Yes, that was it; Shu was once again going to be used as he often had in the past.

"Hmm, I'll make you feel good...I promise, oh trust me.." the SA-X panted, quickly throwing his loincloth to the side, the alloy metal landing on the ground with a firm clunk; she wasted no time in bringing his semi-hard dragonhood to perk up, before taking him right into her. Oh yes, she felt his spire of a member resting inside of her, filling that deep ache she'd had for too long. Yes she took him straight to hilt and rolled her hips down on him hard, grinding and making sure that his well veined shaft was perking inside of her, just the way she hoped and desired for it to.

After a few moments of enjoying the full feeling of him inside of her, her hips rose slowly and made sure that his length was moving inside of her while she pumped her hips down against his, as if she never wanted him to leave being inside of her; she held herself down against him with her knees and laid down against his body, resting her head on his chest while she rode him deeply; her hips slapping against his own with her great effort, since her inner walls were clutching him tightly and making sure that a part was always inside of her.

Samus herself didn't have the time to be jealous since her face was twisted in pleasure, she had forced Shuzyn's face into her breasts, and she felt that tongue working so madly..as well as it worked against her own tongue; it felt twice as good pleasing her breasts. While she allowed his tail to rub the ridged edges against her core; yes...she was grinding against the firm spear-like tail that he'd used so often to kill his victims and her enemies. It was sexy to her in a way, to feel this deadly appendage and what it could do for her, more that she herself often tackled deadly situations no matter what; here she was having her significant other please her with what had protected her so many.

"Oh my god...! Shuzyn, don't you dare sttoopp!!!" she growled lustily and grinded harder against his tail, using her hips the way they were meant to be used against his length; it seemed that she was already getting heavily worked up.

What this buxom blond was capable of...none of that mattered right now, all that mattered to her was the fact that her heart had grown, she was at least now sharing her mate and what he could do with another...she was going to take care of them both, indeed she knew she didn't care for the SA-X yet in that capacity, but this didn't feel wrong. She figured that would be quite the start on this matter. Her heart was perhaps learning to trust in itself and accept those that were worthy of that trust, oh how she wished for her sister to be through...she wanted her mate badly; but she decided to let her brilliant dragon's tail to suffice...oh how it gave her much pleasure.

Meanwhile the SA-X was trying to scream, but couldn't due to the fact she was suckling on Shuzyn's fingers, nibbling on his digit while she rode him harder and harder...every thrust was now on its own becoming a force of nature...yes, no longer merely slapping; she was thudding against her wonderful mate...oh yes, she liked the sound of that. Her mind had labeled him such so long ago and now she officially call him this and while she didn't enjoy sharing, it would be no problem with the original Samus; her older sister...her mind could accept these things, she was happy with that most of all. How she, who started off as an X chose to accept sexuality; it was amusing to her that the other X who thought so basically...they indeed didn't know what they were missing. With this last thought, her body seemed to be overdrawn; her huffing ended with one final scream, a scream that was silenced by his gentle claw, covering her lips as Samus climaxed at about the same moment.

The Blond had waited her turn long enough, she waited a few moments while the afterglow washed over her other, yes she still hadn't found an official designation for the SA-X yet, maybe a name would help...something that would help to distinguish them from one another name wise, she looked different enough. But no enough logical thoughts, yes it was time to have her needs fulfilled.

"I hope you hold strength left in you love of mine, you'll be needing it." Samus said it coolly, as the SA-X got off of him, she immediately took his still hard length into her with a light grunt. Pressing herself down to hilt on him and making sure she hit the hilt on his shaft. Oh yes, that felt great...even better since he was really well slick...he didn't climax? Oh She'd enjoy this more then! Yes, she could have him fill her up, that would really make her feel sated as she loved that final feeling that washed over them both; ultimate satisfaction.

Her hips began moving as she postured herself above him, yes sitting upwards in his lap with her fingertips on his chest, using a few moments to knead his strong chest, before leaning her face down to kiss his lips tenderly; shutting her eyes as she bucked forward with a loud grunt into the kiss. She began to move against him aggressively, as due to the major fact that he made her climax already once, she was going to return the favor and force him to climax once more. She knew he climaxed, but it wasn't going to be anything like what she knew how to give him.

"Hammmhpph!!" the strange sound coming from his lips, muffled into the vicious kiss of his aggressive huntress; whose hips moved with a divine force of incredible vigor. He couldn't believe that after the climax he gave her that she could muster this strength; here as he lay helplessly beneath her, he was just rocking back against her every other thrust while she hammered him into the ground forcefully. He knew her intention was to give him an experience similar to what dragons of his breed might be used to with just what she was; a dominant female.

Samus was loving it, oh yes...gods she was nearly blind with her pleasure, did he always have to feel so incredible inside of her? She had grown to being used to his incredible size; and in fact she found that she not only craved it, but demanded him to have such stamina fit for these long sessions. She found herself grinning mentally at the thoughts of what would be ahead of this, more and more work that she and her sister would be putting into his training; he was no longer looking to pleasure just one of them...no now he had to work hard enough to please two dominant females who would top him whether he wished it or not...oh how she loved his submissive actions. She found it cute that someone as large as he, as powerful as he was in battle, didn't have a problem with being the bottom most of the time. She'd have to change that, this next thing she'd be discussing with her other half...yeah that was something, her missing piece; the SA-X was that...oh-gods!!

If she could've cried out his name she would have, instead the kiss was used to muffle what sounded like a heavy agonized cry; her climax raced over her and she felt herself erupting deeply inside, there her walls tremored as her juices washed down over his shaft, they burned with an incredible heat that her body generated. And like clockwork, in response she felt a hot torrent spraying inside of her depths, yes...she felt his shaft twitching, this powerful dragonhood's burning essence filling her depths inside while she clutched him. This alone was enough to cause the huntress to collapse onto his chest; her body for the moment twitching wonderfully as he rested inside of her...she loved it.

This was the beginning of a new day for them all she felt, an alliance...a true bonding with a mate in common; who'd have thought it possible..? She sure as hell wasn't expecting that she could share a male, with another born of her DNA and power suit.

(---End Content---)

It was a time ahead, while the three hunters were basking in the wonderful afterglow of their recent fun, the computerized C.O. of Samus's was assessing the situation and the damage being done on a more widespread fashion now, all over the ship; more systematic.

'Samus, I regret to inform you that action must be taken or the B.S.L. will crash within the next hour.' The emotionless, but still logic speaking voice of Adam spoke to her; through her communications link, the only way that he could get through to her.

Samus growled softly at the sound of the computer's voice, she'd been basking in the warmth of her mate and her sister, leaning into the warmth provided by Shuzyn and the warmth at her back of her sister…yes she felt okay calling her that now. It was just a matter of growing used to this new arrangement, if they all survived this…no she couldn't think like that.

All that mattered now was answering the computer and finding out what the biggest problem was going on right now; she imagined it was the X that were mimicking her…more so now mimicking Sammy, that was what she was going to call her for right now.

"What is that? What is the danger that your speaking of?" she spoke into her helmet, having put it back on while having rose; in case she needed to be dressed.

'The damage spreading in Sector 3(PYR), Sector 6(NOC), and Sector 2(TRO) have been verified to be SA-X in each location. What I must ask of you, is for the safety of the ship to disable or incapacitate these forms of the SA-X, it must be done by you and your dragon.'

She ignored the comment about 'your' which meant of course some ownership was involved.

"Right, consider it done; I understand the dangers and locations…I'll discuss it quickly, Samus out."

'…Your dragon is dangerous.' These words spoken by Malkovich…trying to warn her? Though the transmission went nowhere since she cut it off, now it was a matter of the events that were about to unfold…something all but different about each form of SA-X, Samus at full power…indeed Samus had come to gain more power than was hoped, Malkovich hoped it now enough.

---

Samus briefly informed Shuzyn and Sammy about the situation, the danger that was present and the fact that they were fully powered versions of herself; just to imply the threat there.

"They lack your instinct dearest, this will be simple hunting." Shuzyn seemed sure, by now he'd already put the heavy mail armor back on and fanned his spiny tail up behind him; eager to hunt and show his prowess. He felt exceptional right now, no conflicting emotions…and things were as great and as right as they should be he found.

Sammy was silent for a moment, leaning back into Shuzyn's arms as if to assert that he was there and wasn't going to leave her. He wrapped his arm around her waist and kissed her gently, looking at her with understanding eyes, these were of course her people at one point.

"I will hunt them, I promise Samus…I will hunt them for my sister and my mate.." she said this and was affirming it, she suited up immediately; and held her arm cannon forward, as if to make it an oath.

Samus touched her arm cannon to her new sister, in some strange way this just might work out, she was thinking that before feeling the claw of her mate, he was with her; no with them both on this all the way.

"We'll meet back when we're finished, I have a feeling things are going to get loads worse; these X are still on the station for a reason, there is something driving them to the systematic destruction. We must find out what it is." Shu said this, simply put it met with his suspicions.

He knew this station was special, well funded and large in size; lots of sectors closed by all of this security? He doubted that it was just important things. And half of these creatures they fought and defeated, there was no doubt that he knew the presence of this place. And with Sector 1 being a dead-on matching environment for the planet SR388? That meant to him involving something to do with the Metroids. You didn't need to be as smart as him to guess that, and with that the three went in separate directions. Aiming to take on their deadly foes and in some cases prey, whatever happened…this was winding down to the end; that much could be sure.

(End Chapter)

I hope this is what you were looking forward to, I am going to give this a big twist, not to worry; the threat isn't over merely because 'Sammy' is with Shuzyn and Samus, in fact they'll be needing her to battle the final creature that I have in store for them to face. It's what some of you think, but…a bit more, I assure you'll start seeing hints before I come to it, but I won't reveal it yet.

This next chapter won't take half as long to write, since I've finally gotten a handle on school up to now, so I'll write soon.

R & R, till then adieu
