Destined to be alone

Chapter 1 The Samius Ranianara

I barley remember that day, that day were my life changed forever, when I died and was reborn. It has been so long, I don't remember their names, what they looked like, were it was, or even them. My oldest memories are of a purple dragon, it had blazing red eyes, and claws that looked like they could cut down a tree like an axe, hovering around me in the dark like a shark, those eyes they glowed they spoke to me they told me I was going to die, I don't remember any more, those terrible memories are all I have left of my home planet, of my friends, of my parents. I was the only one alive, after the space pirates attacked.

I was taken in by a race known as the chozo, bird like creatures with incredible technology. They were never attacked, no one wanted to see how advanced their technology really was. They were pacifists, and kept mostly to themselves.

It was strange, why did they take me, I will never know we spoke different languages, at least I think they rarely spoke. I didn't talk much either, I spent most of my time curled up in a dark corner, wondering why I was where and what was going on crying. They seemed to understand the nutritional needs of my body. There was food, and a bed; I didn't sleep much I stared up at the stars, wondering if the pirates would come back for me.

History tends to repeat itself, for what ever reason the pirates attacked the chozo race. But the chozo's didn't fight back, at first I didn't understand, they populated so many otherwise abounded planet's there was no telling how big an army they had, if they had one, I know why the died. All that pacifist nonsense, they had the most advanced technology in the universe, but they just used it to intimidate to prevent from ever having to use it, but know that the parents had called their bluff the entire race was destroyed.

Again I was the lone survivor of the attack, I was young only…well I don't know I don't keep track of my age, what's the point. For a few days I wondered through the ruble and destruction left by the war, looking for something to eat. The power was out, at I wondered through the darkness, until I found room, I entered it unknowing how it would change me.

Inside, there stood a tall warrior, a fearless warrior, I gasped. I stood frozen the warrior stood still like a statue. After a minute I realized it was just a suite. I walked over to it, reaching to touch it, my hand stopped about six inches from it, and I couldn't move my hand towards it. A force filed.

To my left was a computer. I was barley tall enough to see the buttons on it, but that didn't matter they were in a foreign language I never understood. I pushed something at random out of curiosity.

The computer responded,"Derenz ontiruk lokizen mon nonuray." It babbled some more in a strange language, as it babbled more I understood more and more of what it said," See nos uno…" I know I had heard that some were…then it spoke again, this time I understood it all," Project name: Samius Ranianara

Designed to turn any being into the ultimate warrior armed with a particle beam, and titanium armor. Agility is increased to allow otherwise near impossible feats. …Compatible with all forms of computer code…chozo…" It seemed that the emergency energy for this computer was dying."… Purpose of suite: ……" All was silent. I walked over to the suite. The force field was gone.

I put on the suite; a black cushion like material molded body until I fit the suite. I was much taller in this. I looked at myself in a broken piece of glass. The visor hid my face. I looked as silent as my surroundings. I noticed a gun was attached to one of the arms. I timidly pressed a button… The computer blew up.

I decided to find some way off this planet; with this newfound power I can avenge my planet, the chozo and myself. I decided from that moment forth I would never let myself avoid a battle. I stared at the remains of a dead chozo. The visor became blurred with my tears. How odd I don't even know anything about these beings, and I feel sorry.

Chapter 2 Return to society

I walked through, the long corridors, I heard only my own footsteps, but they were loud, louder then they should be, it was just the suite, as continued. I found that it seemed I was the only thing that existed. The walls were still, my suite was still, but my body was not I was breathing hard, my footsteps echoed. I stopped and stared at a computer, it was broken but something was on the monitor something red, my footsteps echoed louder, I wasn't walking…..

That Red dots on the monitor it was that dragon…

It screeched loudly. I back flipped behind keeping my gun aimed at it, charging the particle beam.

I fired

The dragon fly up into the air, opened it's moth and spat fire at me. I ran underneath the dragon dodging the fire, and charging my gun. Leapt into the air holding the cannon arm like a sword. The dragon, fly back trying to avoid contact with charged up beam as if it were some holy relic.

I fired,

The dragon fell to the ground; I descended from my jump near it

Gun aimed at it's head.

"Ridly's the name." It said in a grouching and rough voice.

Hearing him speak caught me off guard. Ridly sensed that, and knocked me down with his tail. He then flew off away from me.

I didn't have time to see which way he went. But there was only one way. I blasted open the door in front of me and jumped in, gun searching everywhere. The bastard was nowhere in sight. Right in front of me there was a space ship that resembled my helmet. I walked over and checked it. It was working. I climbed down in from the top. And into the ship. I looked around again Ridly was not here. I decided it's best I leave this place. I locked the ship's hatch and then got to trying to figure out, how to start the ship.

"Mm…"

Lights lit up on the control panel, and a friendly computer voice asked," destination?"
I said without hesitation," The nearest space colony (I though for a second), with humans."

"Ship engaged estimated arrival time; 3 days"

I felt the ship rumble, as I took off. I looked out a window at the disappearing planet, of the chozos. It was all dark, in smoke still from the battle that the chozo never fought. Soon it was just a speck in space, then it was darkness, everything else was except for the many stars. The space ship was different. For some reason, I didn't bother to ask for the computer to turn the lights on.

The ship was quite convient. I lay down on a bed and took of all the heavy armor, then stared at the suite. My only friend. The chozo race didn't now much about making clothing so I had worn the same thing, since I came there. I stripped down to my bra and underwear; I had 3 days to think about what to do with my life.

Chapter 3 the three days

Day 1

I was not old enough to do much of anything in society. I stared at my friend from across the room, the seven foot tall suite had saved my life, it seemed to look like a person even with me out of it, the visor was barley visible in the dark, but through it I saw it's silent expretion, emotionless, cold, and fearless. I could easily pass for an adult in the suite, but there's all that electric age verification and crap. I needed some occupation to support myself, something that was like the suite lonely, silent, and unquestioned. I remembered how I easily defeated, or nearly defeated that horror that called itself Ridly.

"Computer is there any information on the space pirates?"

It felted so good to finally hear a human voice, even if it was my own.

"Verified."

The monitor lit up on with lists and links.

"Display subsection crimes"

A huge list of crimes came up, who was involved, when and where it happened and such.

"Display bounties on space pirates."

I saw another huge list come up, with high numbered figures.

I tried to smile, but it had been so long I forgot how, I just grinned.

Display information on the chozo race

Three words popped up; nothing found.

Day two

After wondering in the dark a bit, I found a bed and a bath. I stared at myself in the water, I was just a child, and there was no way I could do anything without the suite on I knew it. Through a window I could see something, it looked like space colony, oddly the ship was moving away from it.

"Computer, why are we not heading directly towards the space colony?"

"The nearest colony is a still a great distance."

"Then what's that?"

"Space colony alpha- 0709, has been seized by the space pirates, the second nearest is omega 3915"

I would not let this happen a third time.

"Land at 09709."

The ship landed. And I went out through the hatch in my suite

Chapter 4 Saving 0709

Fires burned, corpses lay on the ground, eyes still in fear, kihunters roamed, among the chaos and ruble there stood a figure.

It was there I ran into the kihunters, strange monsters that looked like pran mantises yet walked like humans.

I shoot at one from atop the ship.

It covered it's face with it's hand blocking the shots.

I jump into the air, sailing right above it, and gun aimed down, and right above it I fired rapidly.

It's blood flew everywhere, but the thing still was just injured, it had seen me. I was a few feet from landing on it, and it looked ready with those sickle like hands.

I continued to descend gun aimed down still firing.

It collapsed, and I landed on it's body, I stood triumphantly over it till it let out a last word, or more of a shriek, it attracted three more kin hunters.

They fired little bema at me, I dodged, them they continued to fire, I felt like cattle being herded, going left, then right to dodge a shot. I came to a wall, a dead end, no I jumped up towards to dodge one of there beams, and rejiched of it, charging my cannon. I landed on one of the key hunters. Instantly killing with a touch from the charge of ball of energy my cannon arm had. I fired my charged cannon at another kihunter. It attempted to block it with it's hands. The hands went flying off, as well as the things head.

The third key hunter turned it's back and ran away, I fired at it and it collapsed. It was still breathing, I put my cannon on his head, and spoke, my voice came out metallic, from the suite," Where's your leader?"

I was not surprised when it answered, after all Ridly could speak."Th There."

It pointed with it's sickle like arm to a wall.

I kicked the kihunter and it tumbled a few feet

"Scum like you makes me sick."

I could tell it was dead. I charged up me cannon and blasted at the wall

Ruble fell, and I saw a figure in the smoke. It was about my size, fat, with spikes in it's belly, and an oddly shaped head. It let out a roar. It began to shoot spikes from it's bellow as it emerged from the smoke. I hide behind a piece of building that had fallen, and sniped at it.

I heard a step, and I turned around and saw a kihunter. I kicked it and it flew into the air. I jumped up from safety of the ruble, and knocked it higher, into the air. The kihunter and I were high in the air; I got behind the kihunter and began to force it to the ground with one of my soldiers. I used it as a shield against the other monster as I fired away at it; I let myself fall to the ground and watched as the kihunter slammed into the other monster. The beast cut the kihunter into three pieces with a swipe of it's clawed hand, it then turned it's head to me, but It was too late, I had already charged and fired a shot at it, I saw surprise in it's three eyes. I fired at a lamppost; witch fell onto the monster along with my other shot. The best knocked down, by the lamppost, I fired at it some more. It exploded

I turned around and saw hundreds of key hunters. My face was filled with fear but it was noticeable through my visor. The kihunters, and I stood for a few seconds wondering who would make the first move. They did. They ran, I saw their ships retreat towards space. Apparently, they were scared that I could defeated their general.

The aftermath…

Alpha 0709 was saved; I received a large sum of money as a reward by the colony's governor. He asked me what my name was. I hesitated, it had been so long since I ever had to use it, and it had been so long since I heard someone other then a computer or beast, speak in my language. I had forgotten my name so, I decided to name myself after that which saved my life, my only friend," I am Samus Aran"
