This is the folder for my upcoming Metroid story, Another M. It takes all of Other M's problems and rectifies them, offering a good story with good characters that also doesn't conflict with any other Metroid game! :D

Another M Chapter One
What a mess...
The stars in the viewport, which were zooming by faster than the speed of light, faded into the spectacle before me. Was this a ship?...a space station?...some sort of Noah's Ark in space?
"Was this the origin of that distress signal?" I asked myself as I gazed out at the massive gray metal cylinder that lingered in my view.
Whatever it was, it was badly damaged. Entire pieces of it were detached and drifting near the wreck. It sure looked the part of an S.O.S. Only a few lights on its exterior were lit. Maybe there was still someone inside who may know what happened? I didn't know. Neither my eyes nor my ship's scanners cou
Everyone ran towards the door that I had come through, and all took to their knees as an explosive charge detonated. So that's what had knocked me off my feet earlier, I thought, They had been attempting this for quite awhile. But aside from the tremors and obvious scorch marks on the blast door opposite my entrance, the explosions had done nothing.
The unnamed squad member who had first recognized me got up, groaning, "No dice." He walked up to the blast door that was apparently outwitting him. "No power, no doors. Explosives - either they don't work or they would make collateral damage. What now?" He continued to muse what he could do.

Another M Chapter Three
As a group, we eventually reached a large room. We couldn't tell what its original purpose was - what with its wide and tall expanse, circular pattern near the center, and a large bay window overlooking the floor from a deck above the one we were on, opposite the door we came in from. There was a door on each side wall - to where we had no idea.
But there was something else...a dead body, reduced to little more than rags. What I guessed to have once been a lab coat was now only shreds covering even more gory, bloody shreds.
I could hear another of the squad members exclaim at the sight. "Holy shit!" as yet another knelt down beside the body
Adam had made his way up to the room that was overlooking the one we had fought the Brug Mass in. Taking a seat behind a computer console, he saw us all, lined up for briefing, through the giant window. This room had been equipped with loudspeakers, and Adam took this to his advantage. With a few keystrokes at his makeshift command center, he activated it and began the briefing.
"We don't know what's been going on here. However, we do know that this ship is badly damaged, and there is at least one large unknown creature rampant. Remember that...thing...we saw crawling around on the outside of the ship?"
His men all nodded. "We need to gathe
“Adam, do you have any idea why the artificial gravity isn't working right?”
“I don't know, Samus,” he responded to my question. “Maurice says he'll get to that once he figures out what to do about the power.”
“Well, it feels like my magnetic boots are the only thing stopping me from tumbling about,” I told him as I finally located the door to my destination. I had ventured into the depths of the ship in search of any crew quarters or barracks. They were more often than not equipped with survival rations, armories, and comms, and I figured that if there was a place to survive in, it was as goo
The Laboratories were in a bloc near the residential quarters, and I wandered into them when I had completed my sweep of the previous area. Maybe James found something, I thought to myself as I headed into the bloc, he's supposed to be here anyway.
I entered the Laboratory section and was immediately greeted by two guns pointed right at me. Two figures, both dressed in Federation Power Armor, were on opposite sides of a lab table just across the room, both brandishing their rifles at me. One of them, though, I recognized due to the insignia painted on the shoulder, boldly proclaiming his membership of Platoon 07. It was this figure that reac
