Eh, it's not really very hard. All you have to do is RP a bounty hunter, trying to infiltrate the Space Pirate fortress, probably dying, before Samus comes along. If you want a rundown on the story, just ask, and I'll TG you a page or so of the entire Metroid timeline.

Why don't you just post the Metroid Timeline/Info.

Wikipedia is a good site for that, actually.

Can I form as a Pirate bounty hunter? Hunting Samus?

Mmkay.

Can I form as a Pirate bounty hunter? Hunting Samus?

No, you can't. Reason being: Space Pirates haven't been defeated by Samus yet, so they don't care about her. But you can be some kind of kickass elite space pirate guy, if you want.

Ok - Storyline

First off is Metroid. Samus Aran is hired to take down the Space Pirate Fortress, and destroy all Metroids. Next, comes Metroid Prime. In this, Samus follows a Space Pirate Frigate to Tallon IV, and hunts down Metroid Prime.

After this, is Metroid: Echoes. (Not really that much relevant storyline here, pertaining to Metroids, anyway..)

Then comes Metroid II: The Return of Samus, in which Samus is hired to hunt down all the Metroids, which she does. 1 last Metroid, a baby one, forms a childlike attachment to Samus, and she cannot bring herself to kill it.

After this, is Super Metroid. Samus hunts down Kraid and Ridley once again, and Mother Brain is somehow alive. Mother Brain almost kills Samus, but the last Metroid recharges her, by killing itself.

Last off is Metroid Fusion, in which the X Parasites, multiplied rapidly after Metroid II, as there were no Metroids to destroy them. The X Parasite infests Samus's suit, and she is given a new one, after being injected with Metroid Genes, so she can absorb the Parasites.

After she destroys them, Samus is the last being in the known galaxy with Metroid genes.
