The AI reveals further animal based enhancements.

Samus looked over her form once more, she was the stereotypical cat girl, even her face seemed a bit cuter. She even had an **** urge to just curl up in a ball and take a nap right there in the station. "Computer, are there any alternatives to the Cat Upgrade? I enjoy the mobility but... I'd rather not end up napping and eating mice..." Samus did enjoy her lithe, more agile body, but she was already feeling cat-like urges that she couldn't risk keeping on the battlefield.

The AI took a pause before springing back to life. "The Cat Girl Upgrade can be altered to change its code to support other animals. These animals include but are not limited to:

DOG GIRL ENHANCEMENT

HARPY ENHANCEMENT

SHARK ENHANCEMENT

FOX ENHANCEMENT

And many more, the upgrades include Terran creatures and alien alike. If you can think of it, I more than likely have the ability to manufacture it."

Samus was relieved but at the same time they all seemed kind of weird. If this is what she looked like as a cat girl, what would she look like as a shark or harpy? She considered simply keeping the cat upgrade and learning to live with a more feline psyche. "Are there any enhancements to the basic cat form?" Samus said to the brightly lit monitor. "All animal upgrades have enhancements that allow you to turn entirely into said creature or into a 'furry' version of it. With this being said, with the Cat Upgrade installed you can morph into a small 4 legged form or cover your body in fur whilst morphing your face to resemble a cats visage. Essentially, you can shape-shift at any moment into any cat-based life form without any enhancements or alterations to the chip itself."

"That sounds great AI but how do I do it? I don't think the upgrade has fully linked with my mind or anything, I haven't felt any different." As Samus said that, she thought about ways she could try to 'communicate' her thoughts to the upgrade through her zero suit, trying her very hardest to picture herself as a small kitten in the process. To her surprise, it worked. In an instant Samus shrunk down into a small cat, her zero suit morphing to accommodate her 4 legged form. Samus had no time to look over her small cat body as she focused and instantly grew into a large lion, fluffy mane spilling out around her neck in the process. Even as a lion her zero suit changed size and shape to accommodate her body. Samus then pictured herself as a regular cat girl and within a second switched back to her mostly human form.

"Well, that explains it." Samus said to the monitor. "This could actually be quite useful, even with the slight mental changes. AI, I can do this with the other animal upgrades as well, correct?" The AI took a second to respond, as if it didn't actually know. "Yes, Miss Aran. The Dog Upgrade will allow anything from wolves to huskys and the human forms for each."

Samus had a choice to make. She'd rather not fully commit to any just yet, but she had a lot of options, each would provide her with its own animalistic strength. Shapeshifting itself was quite powerful, any animal would do.
