Concept -- Metroid: Cryos Elektra
a year ago
hOI!!!!!!
This is an idea that I've been working on with my son for a number of years now. So, for fun, I'm trying to write a bit of it to see what everyone may think of it.
Cryos Elektra is a most foreboding place. The average surface temperature is below -100 Celsius with -80 Celsius being as warm as it ever gets at its equator.
Yet I am here. If it wasn’t for hearing that Galactic Federation distress call. If it wasn’t for it being my former colleague, Anthony, being the one seeking aid while talking about a threat that should not exist. A threat that I personally made sure did not exist.
Thankfully, the Varia augmentation of my suit allows me to survive in such extreme environments. However, as has been my curse for so many of my other missions, I am incapable of utilizing my full arsenal and abilities due to just how Cryos Elektra is not only located so far away from its star, but it also has a very strong, magnetic field that requires much of my available energy in order to keep my power suit from malfunctioning.
This all doesn’t matter. I have proven that I don’t even need my power suit to deal with the likes of space pirates, bounty hunters, and monsters that still haunt my nightmares to this day. What does matter is how Cryos Elektra has no breathable atmosphere and the outside temperature would flash-freeze me if I were to not be protected by this great gift that the Chozo have given me. I was their “Hatchling”, raised as one of their own, trained in the ways of their warriors, and set out for the stars in search of my destiny.
The distress beacon that Anthony sent is very close to where I landed my ship. Though, to my surprise, there appears to be a structure of some kind that I can see just a short distance away in the opposite direction. There was never any mention of any colony, or even research facility, mentioned when I did my research on Cryos Elektra prior to setting down upon its frozen surface. Could this be another of the Federation’s secret research labs? It really wouldn’t surprise me after what I discovered on The Bottle Ship, or on The BSL Research Facility. Could the Federation, yet again, be trying to cultivate those creatures in which I was contracted to destroy?
I suppose that I should stop asking questions and just go get answers from Anthony before anyone else arrives on the planet. Whatever is in that structure will just have to wait until I verify the safety of my old friend and his crew.
