Standard Infiltration (part 1): the "Ninja" upgrade

The drainage system seems to be the most straightforward approach with the intel given. While navigating the network of tunnels will be tricky at first, they have to lead into the complex eventually. Once inside all she has to do is get to a security room, or a computer connected to the estate's systems, and download a map that will likely contain the details about certain locations throughout; not to mention the fact that said computers can contain information about what's Del-Vanka is keeping in there, what's being auctioned off, and who will actually be attending the event, and it will help her plan an escape route once she is finished. The best part of it all is that going in through drainage will allow her to bypass the surface levels where most of the party will be held.

Now Samus started thinking about the major problem with the plan: the lack of a power suit, and the fact that this is a STEALTH mission, meaning that Del-Vanka, much less anyone, can't know that she is there. Fortunately, there is something that she can use in place of her usual loadout: a gift from Madame Sparrow upon completing her "special" training. This gift is actually a special upgrade that, instead of being geared towards her power suit like it usually would, is meant for her zero suit. It's known as the "Ninja" upgrade, referencing the ancient spies and assassins from Earth. According to the Madame, the upgrade takes full advantage of Samus's agility, speed, balance, and the flexibility that was developed during their "special" training. While the upgrade sounds useful on paper, the fact that it only works with the zero suit leads Samus to never actually make use of it, and thus keep the data chip containing the upgrade in her ship's storage. However, with this new mission, now was the perfect time to make use of it.

It took a moment for Samus to rummage through her ship's storage before finding the container the Madame gave her years ago. opening it she found some interesting looking equipment, including weapons, and stuck under the lid was the upgrade chip she was looking for. Heading to an open space for herself, she then inserted the chip into her zero suit's data port before bracing herself for what's going to happen. within seconds, the zero suit began to turn from it's usual light blue to a pitch black, starting from where the chip was inserted, and spreading all over. After her suit turned black, Samus could feel a sort of hugging sensation as the suit tighten on her body. It wasn't uncomfortable per se, but she could feel the suit cling to every crevice of her body, leaving even less to the imagination than her zero suit normally would have. Then she felt a strange sensation on soles of her feet, and the palms of her hands. she looked at her palms to se a series of strange looking pads on her palm, and along each finger and thumb of her hand. Closing and opening her hands a few times, she determined that these weird additions didn't hamper her ability to use her hands in any way. Remembering that she felt something on her feet too, Samus also lifted one of her feet up to grab it, discovering that the soles of her suit's boots have disappear, replaced by a similar set of pads that outline her feet and toes; in fact it felt like she was wearing a weird pair of socks rather than actual boots. Samus also noticed that the pink highlights that her suit normally has have darkened to a faint navy blue color, almost blending in to her new black suit.

Soon after, Samus noticed a strange sensation around her neck, and looked to a nearby mirror to see that the suit was spreading upward from there. Samus knew that the nanotech in her suit (meant to regulate her vitals and body functions so she wouldn't have to eat while on mission) could be used for various purposes, and even be used to retract or extend parts of her suit however she wished, but she never had it cover her whole head before. The suit continued to spread upwards, and Samus braced herself as the material quickly covered her entire head, including her hair and her face. However, she could still see. She looked to the nearby mirror again, and that while her entire head and face was covered by the suit, her eyes, nostrils, and mouth were left uncovered, and a hole was left at the back of her head where her ponytail stood. She looked closer at her reflection, and noticed as she blinking and open her mouth, the suit was firmly attatched to her eyelids and lips. She then noticed in reflection the serious cameltoe left by the tightening of her suit, making her blush under her hood.

It was then that she saw, and felt, something grow in her nether regions, both front and back; something big that filled her almost completely right before the suit thickened between her legs, and covering up what was going on down there like some sort of built in chastity belt. It was then that the nanotech of her suit began building something over her face; a set of eye lenses grew over her eyes, with a gel-like liquid filling the gap between them, causing Samus's eyes to sting at first before they adjusted and she saw what appeared to be a heads up display, not do different than the usual HUD of her power suit. The HUD displayed a hologram of what she could guess was her body in the suit, and she noticed a few thing, like at her lower extremities it said "waste regulator installation complete", and at her hands and feet there was "crawler pads installation complete, and at her eyes was "tactical lenses installation complete".

At her mouth however, there was something that said "rebreather mask now installing", and soon after, the nanobots began making what appeared to be a breathing mask that covered the entire lower half of her face from cheek to cheek, and from under her chin to above the bridge of her nose. Once the mask was finished, Samus felt a protrouding sensation in her nostrils, and then in her mouth, filling them completely. For a moment Samus felt like she was going to suffocate before air rushed into her lungs again. Samus then looked at herself in the mirror again, in awe of her almost alien appearance before she felt something in her ears as they were being filled in by the suit. It was then that she heard a crackling noise before a computerized voice said "sound detector enhancers installed. Ninja Suit primary installation completed. Ready to begin testing."

Samus was simply stunned by what had happened. In a few short minutes, her zero suit had turned into an all black bodysuit that covered every inch of her body, with the only indication of what's underneath being the ponytail sticking out the back of her head, and every orifice of her body was completely filled with protrusions that serve functions that her power suit had without the need to penetrate her. it was then that she noticed a series of text boxes appear on her heads up display.
