Scrapvault

Scrapvault is a room in Pirate Research in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption.

Description
The Scrapvault has a noticeable red atmosphere. There are several Space Pirate Crates and Heavy Phazon Canisters on the ground. Above Samus is a massive deceased bioform part of a bioengineering experiment. As Samus moves on, she will notice an access door blocking the exit, with cables powering the doors. Samus must use several platforms to get up to the unknown bioform, which has a hollowed out area that Samus can walk through. A Grab Ledge on a Morph Ball tunnel entrance leads into the Scrapworks. Samus must traverse these tunnels to reach a high chamber above the Scrapvault, which features a control console that operates the access doors. However, it is not receiving any power, due to the fact that the second of two Circuit boards also in the chamber is malfunctioning. When repaired, the terminal may be used, and power to the access doors will be drained, causing them to retract. Two steps will also be formed out of two large blocks. Samus can now exit the Scrapvault.

Unfortunately, a small drone detects Samus upon her exit of the Scrapworks, and the Pirate Alarm System activates, sending a planet-wide alert to the Space Pirates that Samus is present on the homeworld. It is impossible to deactivate the system in time. As such, two Commandoes will come in to kill Samus, commanded by the Pirate Commander. Samus has the option to kill the Pirates or run from them.
