Metroid Prime: Dark Hunter

by De'Tir Nomero

Samus regained her regular status after the events of Metroid Fusion, but as always, a new threat is bound to happen. She will face new enemies and meet new friends, she will be challenged mentaly and physicaly, and will recall her previous missions and encounters. Rated M for all reasons. (Will have several OC.)

Metroid Prime: Dark Hunter

Chapter IV - Pirate Bloodshed

Wildlife, rain and thundering. This is what the space pirates are under, while they seem to operate their turret machines, nearby an entrance to a facility. The muddish ground is stable a firm, yet marks of the foots and machines can be seen everywhere. Two zebesians seem to patrol the area, with armor patterns that match the florestation of the planet, while other three opertate the machinations to keep the entrace under security.

"Why do you think The Hunter will be able to pass, we do not have the same large ventilation systems as we used to." One zebesian says to the other as they move towards the flora, slightly away from the road. Their never-tired eyes gaze from one side to another. They seem serious about their jobs, as most space pirates are. "It may be, but The Hunter already killed hundred of our own alone, even when ambushed heavily. Elite ones or not." The zebesians keep moving alongside the road, but hidden within the flora.

"That's why our plans needed to improve. We have enough data gathered about The Hunter, if she arrives, we'll proceed with the major plan." The other bumps the pirate with his large claw-cannon. "The major plan has us as bait, do yo-" An energy shot is heard, a charged plasma beam pierces the pirates head, leaving a perfect burnt hole and killing the zebesian instantly, while the other does not even mourn the dead, just turn and crouches, while clocking itself from sight. The three machinations turn towards the shoot sound, while the on-field patroler aims its arms. "The Hunter is here!" Shouts one of the guards.

Rapid steps, something heavy by the sound, setting asside the flora as it moves, and soon the jets start up, letting a loud propulsing sound. When the pirate is finaly able to locate the culprit, it was already too late, and the three guards are only able to see this fourth zebesian being launched against them at an encredible speed, with it's armor and, most likely, bones of his whole body, flying against the entrance of the facility, but this seems heavily armoured, which does not suffer any damage nor a single denting. Two of the guards look to one another, while the other starts shooting the lazers towards the place where this zebesian was unfortunate to be.

Another does the same, while the third keeps its eyes intently on the flora, spotting a small glitering light within it, and shooting the lazers there. The others try to follow, but as soon as they move their cannons towards it, the one who spotted has it's machine destroyed, it's like it wasn't even plated nor armoured nor shielded at all. The dying zebesian opens it's eyes, only able to see the dark-blue armoured boots, while the other two seem terryfied, and when they try to move the cannon, the charged plasma shot annihilates them both, the turrets exploding violently, and scattering pieces all arround. "Y-you're not... The Hu-Hunter..." The guard managed to say before being put out of it's misery.
