Metroid: Extinction

Prologue

Two troopers from the galactic federation carefully navigate a dim wet cave , the moisture in the air clouding their visors as they do so. One of them turns a corner and screams while frantically firing his blaster at something. The other rushes to his side only to find his shrivelled corpse lying on the ground , completely grey and devoid of any life.

"Control this is federation trooper NGC 51162. Something attacked bright. He's dead ! It was quick I didn't see the attacker"

"Copy that 51162 please remain on guard for the time being. These monsters are vulnerable to cold so keep your freeze gun at the ready and we'll send an extraction team."

"Roger that . I'm gonna head back up to the surface . I'm losing it down here "

A distant squeal makes its way toward the trooper and he looks around in a panic , quickly wiping the moisture from his visor . He whips out his freeze gun and holds it infront of him . He walks backwards from the corpse scared to turn his back on the attacker, incase the target they came to hunt ended up hunting him instead. Another squeal makes itself known and a shadow darts in and out of sight as it passes by a dim ray of sunlight from a crack in the ceiling .

- In orbit above the planet a federation patrol ship gets its men ready to depart to the surface when suddenly a space pirate cruiser warps into view. A boarding pod detaches and
makes its way toward the patrol ship slamming into the side and blasting a hole into the interior. 7 federation troopers crouch in the hallway ready to repel the boarding party. Out of the dust numerous shots fire and one of the troopers goes down after taking a direct hit to to the visor. The troopers return fire as silhouettes of space pirates attempt to come out of the dust. A grenade is thrown and the remaining troopers are instantly killed except for one who lies underneath a corpse trying to resist succumbing to his injuries. A figure makes its presence known as it steps out of the fading dust . It's clad in a dark grey armour with a bright yellow visor and red outline never before seen . . The figure walks forward, it's footsteps making a metallic sound while it walks as if the figure itself was entirely made out of metal. The trooper groans and the figure turns its head to look down at him. It walks over to him and places it's left foot on his upper chest pressing down and causing extreme pain to the heavily wounded man. He screams and the figure points a short rectangular shaped gun at him, the gun seemingly joined on the figure's arm with its hand on the inside . It points at the man's face and shoots .

- The trooper turns around in order to find his bearings when suddenly he hears a loud squeal as a shadow flies at him , he shoots the freeze gun multiple times without properly aiming and the attacker makes contact which produces a scream from the trooper. the faint sunlight portrays the scene on the wall of the trooper with a round silhouette latched onto his head.
