Disclaimer: This story takes place after Metroid Fusion (4). The two original characters from this game are Samus Aran and Adam Malkovich. Anything else such as the word Metroid, B.S.L or Biologic Space Labs, Galactic Federation, Adam saying "Lady" instead of Samus, and etc., they belong to Nintendo. I realize that Adam is dead and was put into a computer. I'm sorry if this disappoints most you Metroid fans, but in this story, Adam is alive. The rest of the characters contained in this story are my very own creations. I came up with my own race known as the Archons and a planet called Antaria. If you take them and claim them as your own or put them into your own stories without my permission, I will ask Samus to kick your ass.

If most of you don't like the idea of Samus falling in love with Kyan (my character, don't touch!), then that's your problem. It's just the way my story came to be.

I just recently finished writing this story down on paper, but now the wait is on because I have to type it all up now. Please remain patient. I will get the whole story up as soon as possible. If you are curious, yes, there is going to be a second part to this story.

Thank you for reading my story J

Chapter 1

The Arrival

            After my experience on the space station B.S.L, or Biologic Space Labs, that orbited the planet SR388, I was sent to the human space colony known as Terra.

            The Federation suggested that I take a break from my duties and settle down with actual people and possibly have a family.

            Adam, my closest friend and CO, was under orders to show me around. He took up the offer quite happily.

            I'm glad he was chosen to be my tour guide; since there was no one else I was acquainted with.

            Upon entering the docking bay at Terra, with Adam controlling the ship's computer, I looked into the protection window high above the docking chamber where there was a group of people in uniform. I recognized them as Federation officers.

            I looked down and noticed the ship hovering above the deck. I heard the large lock hatches clash together as they closed and sealed.

            The ship came to a standstill and shut off.

            Adam's voice came over the telecom link, "Welcome to Terra. I hope you will enjoy your stay, Lady."

            His tone had its normal calmness to it that seemed to have the same calming affect on me as usual whenever I felt nervous. This time, though, a sudden chill ran up my back as an odd feeling come over me.

            I used the ship's elevator to get down to the deck. As I stepped down onto solid ground, the Federation officers approached.

            "Welcome, Samus. I'm glad that you could make it to Terra safely. I'm Officer Stellbak from the Galactic Federation. It is an honor to finally meet our investigator." Stellbak smiled pleasingly and offered out his large hand to shake hands with me.

            He was tall, thick built with broad shoulders, his skin was light tan, and his hair a dirty brown that was slicked back. His eyes were dark and had a sleepy look to them.

            I held out my hand and took his to shake hands. His grip was hard which pinched my hand. It was unbelievable that I could feel his slightly painful grip through my glove of my transformed power suit.

            We released hands.

            Stellbak took a step to the side as a man in a long white lab coat stepped forward.

            "Samus, I would like you to meet our top of the line scientist, Doctor Horn."

            I suddenly felt another chill run up my back as the doctor smiled and offered his hand to shakes hands with me.

            Doctor Horn was a short man, about five feet and a few inches tall. His features were slowly becoming aged and his hair turning gray. The top of his head was half bald and shined from the ceiling lights of the bay. His eyes shown a bright blue that had a calming and trustworthiness affect.

            "I'm glad that you could visit us, Samus. I look forward to getting to know you better and taking a look at your suit for analysis. I find your power suit very fascinating and I would like to study its potential properties!" Doctor Horn spoke in an excited tone.

            I slightly felt uneasy about this shorter man, but yet, I felt that he would be a valuable friend.

            I released his hand and felt slightly annoyed that someone I'm barely getting to know wants to barrow my suit for study.

            "I'm sorry, but I want to keep my suit on." I replied.

            Officer Stellbak gave me a hard look, "Samus, this is your home now. Isn't it appropriate that you reveal yourself to new people?"

            I shook my head, "I'd feel more comfortable in my suit."

            Doctor Horn laughed gently, "I'm afraid you won't be treated any different other than someone from the Federation."

            I narrowed my eyes and pursed my lips.

            "Alright! I'll take it off." I spoke in an irritated tone.

            Doctor Horn smiled, "Ah, good. Please follow me and I'll bring you to the clothing chamber to change into something." He turned and motioned for me to come.

            I saluted to Officer Stellbak and hurried after the doctor.

            As I walked behind the doctor, I quickly glanced around to try and find Adam, hoping that I would meet him here.

            I sighed quietly and sorrowfully, realizing that he wasn't here to greet me.

*          *          *

            Doctor Horn showed me to the clothing chamber and left me alone so that I could have some privacy.

            I stepped into a small glass chamber where the doctor indicated for me to take off my suit so it could stand upright and not fall over.

            The glass door slid shut. I took off my helmet and placed it on a hook that was near me.

            I easily climbed out of my suit and came out of the top of the glass chamber. I jumped down and turned toward my suit.

            The air around me turned cold, as I felt naked without my suit on.

            I placed my hand on the glass door and stared through at my suit. I suddenly felt worried and uneasy.

            I shook my head and sighed to calm myself.

            Doctor Horn told me that I would feel uncomfortable at first on Terra, but then I would grow accustomed to it soon.

            I turned to a different chamber, which was the shower.

            Horn suggested I take a long hot shower to relax.

            It's been a long time since I had a shower, but then again, my suit was always at the right temperature and it kept me from sweating and from becoming smelly.

            I took off my black leather suit and stepped into the shower.

            It turned on automatically and quickly adjusted to a hot, soothing, and comfortable temperature.

            I smiled, closed my eyes, and let the hot water run over my face and body.
