The [[Galactic Federation]], fearing the destructive potential of Metroids, sent a special task force back to SR-388 to exterminate them. When contact with the landing party was lost, the Galactic Federation sent in Samus Aran to complete the job. Once on the planet, Samus encounters and eliminates Metroids in various stages of their life cycle, including [[Alpha Metroid]]s, [[Gamma Metroid]]s, [[Zeta Metroid]]s, [[Omega Metroid]]s, and finally a [[Metroid Queen]]. When she encounters the last Metroid, a [[Metroid Hatchling]], it mistakes her for its maternal figure, and she decides not to destroy it in the hopes that it could be studied and eventually used to benefit humankind. She brought the Metroid larva to the [[Ceres Space Colony]] and entrusted it to the researchers there. | The [[Galactic Federation]], fearing the destructive potential of Metroids, sent a special task force back to SR-388 to exterminate them.

The Galactic Federation hired [[Biologic Space Labs]] to observe the restructuring ecosystem on SR-388 following the obliteration of the dominant predators there, the Metroids. Because of her prior experience, Samus Aran was hired to provide field assistance. On the planet's surface, Samus encountered a previously unknown parasitic organism know as "[[X Parasite|X]]," which infected her without her knowledge. Samus fell into a deep coma and was transported to the [[Galactic Federation Headquarters]] for emergency treatment, where surgeons were forced to cut and remove parts of the [[Power Suit]] from her body. In a desperate move, the scientists created a [[Vaccine "Metroid"|vaccine]] using a preserved Metroid cell culture, which eliminated the X within her. Unexpected side effects included the ability to absorb X parasites, and inheriting the Metroids' weakness to extreme cold. Now clad in the [[Fusion Suit]], Samus is sent to the B.S.L. Research Station to investigate the large explosion that occurred there, overseen by her new ship's computer, which gives her orders along the way. | The Galactic Federation hired [[Biologic Space Labs]] to observe the restructuring ecosystem on SR-388 following the obliteration of the dominant predators there, the Metroids.

On the planet's surface, Samus encountered a previously unknown parasitic organism know as "[[X Parasite|X]]," which infected her without her knowledge. As she returned to the [[B.S.L. Research Station]], Samus lost consciousness and her ship drifted into an asteroid belt. An escape pod was automatically launched with her inside and recovered by the researchers.

On the station, Samus discovers that specimens brought from SR-388 carried X parasites with them which have infected the entire station. She also encounters an X that mimics her form, [[SA-X]], who stalks her throughout her mission. Deep within the laboratories, she unearths the Galactic Federation's clandestine Metroid breeding operation. What's more, the ship's computer informs her that the Federation has taken an interest in the X parasites and is approaching the station, and had even withheld upgrades from her so that she wouldn't destroy the SA-X. In light of the dangers the lifeforms onboard the station present, Samus decides to destroy the station. While arguing with computer about her decision, it is revealed that the mind of [[Adam Malkovich]], her previous commanding officer who died during the [[Bottle Ship]] incident, was uploaded to her ship and was in fact the one issuing her orders. He informs her that she can redirect the station's orbit before detonating it in order to destroy SR-388 as well. | On the station, Samus discovers that specimens brought from SR-388 carried X parasites with them which have infected the entire station.
