"DAMNIT! DAMN! DAMN! DAMN!" A young Space pirate Trooper said. He took note of the red alarms blaring all around, the Holo-screens all around saying that Samus Aran was approaching. Things were going particularly well for this one Space Pirate. He had enrolled for the Pirate army years earlier, when he was about 17. He started as just a peon, but he did have potential, and was improving by the day. Command sent him out with a mission. One that was so important to them. He was assigned to guard Retry(AUTHOR NOTE: Retry is pronounced if the E was short. So the proper pronunciation is retrY, with Upper-Case letters representing long vowel sounds.) with his life. He was never told what Retry was, but he/she/it was powerful. He was told that he would know Retry when he saw it. "Mikerus, you had best do something to prepare for the Hunters arrival." His friend, Nurvemil said. That made Mikerus realize he had to do something, and fast. He ran up to the Commander's office.
"Sir, shouldn't we be preparing? We must do something!" Mikerus shouted.
The Commander looked at him, "Oh, I know."
"Well, why aren't we doing anything? Samus Aran will blast us to pieces!"
"Well, thats because we are now going to play our ace in the hole."
"You mean-"
"Yes."
"So, what is it anyways?"
"Well, its strengths envy those of Samus Aran, and it will be coming into existence soon, we just have to stall Samus. That is why you were promoted. You are not a pawn, you are a rook, and we will now corner Samus Aran, she will not survive! Retry will lead us to battle!" The commander said.
"Good, but when does this start?" Mikerus asked.
"Now." The Commander reached for the messaging system. "Attention! We will launch Project Retry! Samus Aran will not see tomorrow!" He ended the transmission. Even from the office they could hear the cheers of the Space pirates in the hallways.
Meanwhile, in the Space Pirate Labs...
A lone Metroid was in a tank, this Metroid had survived a lot, particularly. The tank was transparent, so the scientists could see if the Phazon was getting to the creature. They waited, but finally, they heard the announcement over the message system. They were ecstatic, the were finally able to do what they had researched on for months. The Space Pirate scientist Jirthad walked over to the tank. "Soon, this Metroid will win us this war, victory will be ours." He walked over to the control panel, the other scientists awaiting him. He entered a code, and the Phazon tanks next to the Metroid's tank started to empty out pouring all around the Metroid. It filled until they could no longer see the Metroid. They knew what was to happen. But Samus didn't, and in this battle, not knowing will get you killed.
