Chapter 3: Things that just wont die.

As my vision clear I am confronted with an awe inspiring landscape. I am in a good sized enclosed valley. Looking around, not so much to my surprise. I find no other then a Chozo statue nearby. Looking around I find that there was a fairly large settlement here at one point. With luck it was the group that I knew. I look down to see a strange pedestal that is emitting a blue glow, this must be the receiving end.

"Adam, you getting the radiation from before?"

"Yes, but this time it is contained." There is a pause as he thinks for a while. "I would have to say that the crash caused the other end to be damaged. This lead to a leak and made it impossible to control."

"So when I found it just zapped me to the other end?"

"Possibly, or it may just be a random one."

"Great." I mumble as I start to walk to the nearby statue. As I near the statue my motion detector picks up motion behind me.

Spinning on heel I find the source. A bug like creature, not unlike the ones I found on Tallon IV, just came out of the nearby turf. Know what it is I instantly blast it with the power beam, which is currently the strongest weapon in my arsenal.

Only, the worst possible thing occurs. It melted into a glop I only know too well. The creature I killed was non-other than an X-Host. The parasite immediately latches onto me, unwittingly to its own doom.

"Adam, I thought we wiped that scum from the face of existence!" I shout bitterly

"We effectively eliminated SR388, but it appears that something got away." He responds coldly. "I just reviewed footage from our escape, there was a chance that something launched one of the escape pods onboard."

"You missed something getting away!" I scream.

"It would appear so. While I am unable to guarantee that it is a pod; although, it is a safe guess." There is a pause then he adds in a more somber tone, "Samus, there was only one creature with that kind of intelligence onboard."

"I know, that is what worries me." I start to look around me, seeing almost no wild life. This, this is the worst thing that could have happened.
