Before I begin, I will say that Samus Aran and Metroid related characters or ideas belong to Nintendo and their respective affiliates.

A/N: Before you begin to read this, please understand that unless you have read "Rebirth of a Legend", you may find yourself misunderstanding this story, as this is a direct sequel to "Rebirth of a Legend". As with all my stories, this one will follow my "Metroid Timeline".

I hope you enjoy and please don't forget to read and review.
