Note From The Author:
Hello everyone Sharonlover here, I know all us Metroid Fans know the events and levels of Metroid by heart right? Right! And I know you all know the story line and everything but I'm only doing this story as a set that way I feel a sense of completeness. Please bear with me within this story as most of it connects with the rest of my series. Well I hope you enjoy the rest of the story and please read and review. (
Chapter 4 Zone 3: Norfair
Samus ran down the hallway, steam from vents in the floor constantly fogged her visor. She entered the next room, which was about the size of a small two-bedroom house. A few fire fleas glowed in and out lighting up the room. Samus turned to exit the room finding nothing of importance and found herself looking at a locked door. She turned about and the fire fleas stopped emitting there light. A light breeze swept through the room and the room began to shake and then stopped as quickly as it had started. Samus could here someone or something breathing heavily and hollered, "Who's there?"
The breathing continued with no answer and Samus flipped to her scan visor to see if she could pick up the creature but found nothing. A flame burst from one side of the room and Samus could dimly make out the shape of a dragon before a nearby bush caught fire and lit the room. The light from the fire reflected off the dragon's eyes and Samus knew she was in Ridley's presence. Samus stepped back and armed her cannon but before she could fire the dragon raised his arm and pointed to the wall behind Samus. She turned to look and found Old Bird and Houston Armstrong bound and gagged against the wall. Ridley flew over and brought his tail toward their vicinity in a threatening jester that meant if she fired he would kill. Samus lowered her arm cannon eyeing the creatures blank eyes for some sign of bluffing but found none. With a swift and almost stealth like swing, Ridley's tail tore through Old Bird and Houston's body. Samus screamed half in shock half in torment. The tears began streaming behind her visor as Ridley grasped the paralyzed bounty hunter by his tail.
"You can't defeat me pawn. You can't defeat me", the dragon said pulling the bounty hunter to his face. He began to squeeze Samus who screamed in pain before Ridley dropped her to the ground. He brought his tail around and began to dart it about her before coming around for the kill.
Samus woke up shivering with a cold sweat. The fire she had built had gone out long ago. She shook off the dream and cleaned herself up before putting her power suit on. She exited the room and began investigating dead ends and passages within Brinstar. After an hour Samus remembered she hadn't finished exploring the room from which she had received her missile launcher. She made her way back to that corridor and exited the blue door on the other side. Sure enough Samus found herself in an elevator room. She got on and the elevator began its descent.
At the other end of the shaft the elevator came to rest between two miniature statues of Ridley. The walls were made of red stone and the temperature of the area seemed to rise drastically. Samus began her exploring of the area called Norfair. Through her exploring Samus encountered a few new creatures, the Multiviola, the Polyp, and an irritating creature the Nova. Samus found herself navigating through a long corridor, which in turn exited to a purple shaft. An evolution of the ripper glided across the room in various places along with other crawly creatures. After finding nothing but dead ends Samus discovered that like much of Zebes secret passageways lied beneath crumbled blocks. Samus soon discovered many of these and explored them to there extent. She collected missiles and found another ice beam.
"Start Log. I've entered into Norfair and I am pretty sure that this would be the region Ridley is hiding out in. I've defeated Kraid who seemed to be a leader of some sort. I've obtained quite a few missiles and have destroyed many pirates. End Log." Samus closed the logbook and continued down the purple corridor and entered the next room. The room contained some floating platforms hovering slightly higher then the lava filled room. Small dragons made there home in the lava rising out to spit fireballs out at the bounty hunter. She quickly dodged the creatures and destroyed them before destroying the red door on the other side. She entered into yet another Chozo room. Samus opened the membrane-coated ball and scanned the object.
"Screw Attack: The screw attack turns the Chozo power suit into a weapon. Using the power of the power beam, the suit becomes energized whereupon any creature that comes into contact with it is destroyed. This only works when the user somersaults and therefore cannot be used by walking, running or crouching." The description ended and Samus' visor returned to normal.
Samus ran from the room leaping over the floating platforms and back down the hallway backtracking to explore other areas. She eventually came across another Chozo power up that allowed her to jump fifty percent higher then normal. These high jump boots allowed her easier access to higher ledges without having to freeze creatures for use of stepping-stones. After a few encounters with some polyps and the usual pesky pirates Samus was able to make her way to another elevator. This one was much like the one right outside of Kraid's hideout. The creature carved into the wall was very much the same as Kraid's except that this one contained two. The second one resembled the red dragon in a faint way a Samus' heart skipped a beat at the thought of facing the nemesis. She leapt onto the elevator and descended down.
