The Metroids were fist created by the [[Chozo]], apparently to combat the [[X Parasite]]s. They were so successful at hunting the X, they drove them close to extinction. The Metroids grew feral, and became wild creatures that became the top of the food chai on [[SR388]]. They established their own life cycle, and may have caused the Chozo to leave the planet. The Chozo gave them their name because the word "Metroid" means ultimate warrior in Chozo. | |||
The [[Galactic Federation]] discovered the Metroid on SR388, several specimens were acquired for research. On the way back to headquarters, the Federation ship was ambushed by [[Space Pirate|Space Pirates]]. Recognizing the military potential, the Pirates took the Metroids to [[Zebes]]. | The [[Galactic Federation]] discovered the Metroid on SR388, several specimens were acquired for research.

Shortly after Samus left, the Space Pirates attacked the colony. Receiving a distress signal, Samus returned to the station and witnessed [[Ridley]] escape with the Hatchling. Returning to Zebes, there Samus encounter failed clones of Metroids that were far weaker. After making her way into the new [[Tourian]], she destroyed the Metroids gathered there and eventually encountered the Hatchling, this time far larger. It drained Samus's energy leaving it at critical levels before it left. It reappeared again, just as [[Mother Brain]] was about to kill Samus and sacrificed itself to save her. | Shortly after Samus left, the Space Pirates attacked the colony.

Later Samus was on a mission to SR388, where she was attacked by an X that infected her, the Federation saved her with a vaccine made from Metroid DNA that had been acquired from the Hatchling. It allowed her to absorb any free-floating X but also made her inherit the Metroids' vulnerability to extreme cold. Shortly afterward she learned that the Federation had a Metroid breeding program aboard the X-infested [[Biologic Space Laboratories Research Station]]. After moving the station in the path of SR388 in an attempt to eradicate all X aboard the station, before she could make it to her ship she was attacked by an Omega Metroid that was immune to all her weapons. Before the Metroid could finish Samus off, an [[SA-X|X copy of Samus]] attacked the Metroid but was quickly defeated. Samus then absorbed the X regaining her Ice Beam ability that she used to destroy the Omega Metroid. After the station impacted SR388, the remaining Metroids aboard the station were destroyed. | Later Samus was on a mission to SR388, where she was attacked by an X that infected her, the Federation saved her with a vaccine made from Metroid DNA that had been acquired from the Hatchling.

Samus is now the only remaining life form with Metroid DNA, unless the Galactic Federation is able to create more. | ||
