"The Model upgrade." Samus said, confirming the upgrade. After some time, of which Samus didn't know how long, of hiding in the darkest area of her ship that she could find and almost crying to herself in a state of depression, she was finally able to work up enough effort to wander out into the painful light to deactivate the upgrade. Unfortunately, thanks to her long, rake-like talons, she wasn't able to manipulate the computer very well, and had settled for hitting it until something happened, which it fortunately did, reverting the upgrade.
However, her random button-mashing had resulted in her selecting the Model upgrade, something that Samus wasn't too happy about. She'd probably end up as some vapid beauty posing for an imaginary camera, if the rest of the upgrades were anything to go by. Either way, she took the upgrade from the machine and inserted it into her zero suit, waiting for the changes to apply.
Immediately, Samus began to feel her skin tingle, as her skin began to pale to a lighter, unnatural shade, while her body began to feel harder and more rigid, Samus finding it difficult to bend or move her arms freely. She brushed her hands against her hips, and found that instead of being soft, her body felt hard, like a tough plastic, unyielding as she confirmed that the rest of her body was like this. She felt a slight pain in her arms and legs, and they began to feel odd, Samus quickly holding up her arm to examine it. Through the skin-tight material, she saw the imprints of joints where her arm was able to move, and looked down to confirm similar joints on her hips and legs.
As she appraised her new plastic body, she noticed that throughout it, she hadn't seemed to have changed her facial expression, and found that upon trying, she couldn't, her face stuck in a blank expression. She decided to take a better look at herself in the mirror, and quickly headed over, walking being slightly harder thanks to her unbending feet.
When she got to the mirror, she took a look at herself, and noticed that on the blank expression on her face, her features seemed very flat and painted on, her eyebrows simply flat lines, while her lips were hard and unmoving, and even when she opened her mouth to talk, the blank expression remained. After the few seconds it took to examine herself, Samus went to walk away from the mirror
And found that she couldn't, her legs seemingly rooted to the ground, while her body refused to turn around, remaining faced towards the mirror. Slowly and against her will, Samus' arms raised into a pose, the rest of her body readjusting slightly to match. All in all, she realised that she looked like a store mannequin, posing to show off some clothes, and desperately tried to move, unable to even move her eyes.
After a minute or two of struggling, Samus closed her eyes, and began to resign herself to her fate
When she realised that she could move again! She quickly opened her eyes, and moved her arm to
Well, tried to, since the moment she opened her eyes, her arm froze again, moving back into the pose that it had been set in. Samus panicked slightly, wondering what had triggered her movement again, before realising that she had closed her eyes, and that had done it. She closed her eyes again, and this time blindly turned and ran away from the mirror, only daring to open her eyes when she reached the other end of the room, and luckily found herself to still be able to move.
Glad that she had regained her movement, Samus turned back at the mirror, catching her reflection in it
And froze again, this time quickly jamming her eyes shut and turning back away. Ok, it didn't seem to be that her eyes were shut, it seemed to be if she caught a look at herself that she froze. She wondered if she would do that if anyone else looked at her, and if she would ever be caught in a situation that she would never be able to move again in. With that extremely uncomfortable thought, she quickly headed over to the computer to remove the upgrade, that being one situation she never wanted to experience again.
