“That’s it. I’ve had enough. I’m outta here!”
Those were the last words of Samus Aran before her disappearance. The only contact with the bounty hunter since then has been an e-mail sent from Tourian. However, a thorough search did not find her there. It is believed she is heading back to her first conquest, the planet Zebes. For the moment, though, even the Chozo race is clueless as to her whereabouts. Their mysterious connection to her power suit seems to have ceased.
Samus’ location may not be known, but the reason for her break from work is. It seems that the sole survivor of K-2L has taken a keen interest in fashion. Such is her enthusiasm, in fact, that many think her to be obsessed with it. Samus has refused to return to her Metroid-exterminating ways until the Chozo race fabricate a more aesthetic design of her power suit. This strike action could prove fateful as Kraid and Ridley would be free to attack wherever they please. Metroid would once again roam Zebes.
In her list of demands, Samus said, “Instead of that hideous orange, I want black... with sequins. On top of that, I want more than one colour of suit. People think I only have the one suit and are shouting abuse at me. I want purple, too. That will match the new computer console I’m getting.”
To top it off, it seems that Samus has made an attack against anything orange. She refuses to eat the fruit, disagrees with all Shaolin monks and is even asking for a new communications contract. She believes the past is orange, not the future. Included in her newfound fascination of the colours black and purple, Miss Aran has demanded a batch of plums, a batch of red grapes, a batch of blackcurrants and a batch of marmite. Some think she has gone mad but, for the time being, the Chozo race seems to be meeting her demands, even though they have no clue where she is.
Will Samus Aran ever return to bounty hunting? Will the Metroid be allowed to attack without opposition? Do the Chozo even know what sequins are? Time will, or perhaps will not, tell.

To further this, in Super Smash Bros. Melee, you can see a Chozo walking around on the Brinstar level (Planet Zebes). This one doesn't attack you, though...

No, it says: "When the Chozo race could advance no futher they chose to step back and watch the other races." All those Chozo statues you see that give you power ups are real Chozo, which is why some come alive and attack you.

Ah, but when she fuses, she gets stains on her suit which she needs to wash off. I think she'd prefer to have some sort of change of clothes instead...

Heh- Nice one SD! She actually changes the colour of her suit in Metroid Fusion (GBA) as she fuses (hence the name) with some sort of Alien to keep her from being killed by an evil poison.

Once again, very funny SD!

I thought the Chozo race became extinct?
LOL! Very funny stuff there SD!
Wouldn't she be better off in pink and green? It'd suit her and there's nothing for her to get annoyed at except from pink and green spotted monsters. Hurrah!
