Chapter 2: Foreign yet Familiar

The meteors burst into flames as the entered the planets thin atmosphere, but because of the high amounts of hydrogen the their colors very different from that of earth.

"Mommy, Daddy, its so pwetty."

"I know arn't they."

"They Arn't as pretty as my two little Samuses." Her Father said with a smile as he looked at his daughter and wife.

"CODE RED! "We are under attack. CODE RED! This is not a drill." The station itself seemed to scream. "Space Priate fleet aproaching.

The elevator slammed down behind me, I narrowly made the jump, I rolled, jumped to my feet and quickly turned my beam cannon on the wreckage.

"There is no way they survived that." I thought to myself, but there was some part of me that couldn't agree. I fired at the elevators remains in an attempt to arouse any thing that might have been left, but I couln't see any movement.

"Hmf…" I grumbled as I made my way to one of the planters that surrounded the chaff and took a seat, "Its things like this…"

I cleared my throat, "Suit, specs." I began going over the damages I took in a little more detail. Morph Ball, morph bomb, missiles, space jump… they were all gone, and my shields were so badly damaged that even if I did find energy to recharge them my suit wouldn't be able to absorb it and put it to use.

I uttered a sigh of discontent and rose to my feet, "This is some situation you've gotten your self I to Sam… and you're not even getting paid for it…"

Clink

"!"

The sound came from behind me, the shaft! The larger bot had managed to survive the fall, its drill and claws making short work of the chaffs steel walls.

I began to charge my beam cannon, waiting for that instinctive signal on when to release the blast.

"Eeyore!" The monstrous robot cried as it pulled itself through it's freshly cut hole.

Now.

I fired the shot perfectly, and maybe it was the chozon blood in me reacting with my human adrenaline but I could almost see the ball of light traveling though the air towards the head of the robot. I grinned as the blast slammed into its intended target, but my smile quickly faded as I watch the yellow stain the charged energy beam left behind evaporate like water from its head.

Without much choice I turned to run, but some impulse ordered me to look back. The Giant robot began shaking violently without cause until suddenly it fell limp, lifeless. The thing seemed to of died from a malfunction, a glitch, a loose wire some where; I didn't really care. I close my eyes and allowed a sigh of relief to escape my lips for once.

"Ah…"

A voice! My cannon again instinctively met the source, but I immediately lowered my weapon. A Child stood before me her hair short and blond, like mine, a white dress fit loosely on her small frame. Her deep blue eyes were locked on me. Fear obviously having frozen her still.

"Uh..." The girl uttered, her mouth trembling.

"Wait, no," I removed my helmet, "Its okay, I won't hurt you."

I looked into the girls face for some kind of response I found none. I decide to try a bit more talking.

I bent down on one knee bring myself down to eye level with the girl." I'm Samus, what's your name?"

The girl suddenly shook her head in disbelief and took a step back, "No, NO!" she yelled as she took off.

"Dmn it." I snapped my helmet on and followed.

The girl was fast, to doubt that would be lying. She darted up streets and down allies always just out of my reach. Or maybe I just didn't want to catch her…

A SYNOPSIS OF WHATS TO COME/,,

Samus has encounted a single girl, perhaps the only living being on the station, and Samus unknowingly draws closer to her unknown past.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO SAMUS NEXT!
