The '''X-Parasites''', or simply '''X''', are the species of parasitic organisms fought by [[Samus Aran|Samus]] in the [[B.S.L. Research Station]] in ''[[Metroid Fusion]]''. They invade a host body and absorb the DNA, then multiply and kill the host. The only natural enemy of the X is the [[Metroid (species)|Metroid]]. | The '''X-Parasites''', or simply '''X''', are the species of parasitic organisms fought by [[Samus Aran|Samus]] in the [[B.S.L.

Samus was taken back to [[Galactic Federation]] HQ to be treated. Due to the fact that large portions of her [[Power Suit]] had been infested by X, they had to be surgically removed. The X remained in Samus' central nervous system, and an experimental anti-X vaccine made from a cell culture from the [[Metroid Hatchling]] was used to cure her. As a result, all of the X in Samus was destroyed, and Samus became immune to future X infection. In addition, Samus gained the ability to absorb other X-Parasites, using their energy to replenish her health and weapons. | Samus was taken back to [[Galactic Federation]] HQ to be treated.
