After her defeat on Aether, Dark Samus's remains are picked up by a Space Pirate craft that had been retrieving the remainder of the Phazon on the planet Aether. Dark Samus was then able to regain her form using energy from Phazon stored on board. Dark Samus, after regaining her form, kills a third of the Space Pirates on the ship.<ref name=Stowaway/> She then brainwashes the remainder of the pirates into following her.
After her defeat on Aether, Dark Samus's remains are picked up by the Space Pirate battleship ''[[Colossus]]'', which had been retrieving the remainder of the Phazon on the planet Aether. Dark Samus was able to regain her form using energy from Phazon stored on board. Once she regained her form, she proceeded to kill a third of the Space Pirates on the ship.<ref name=Stowaway/> Dark Samus brainwashes the remainder of the Pirates into following her.<ref>{{cite|Our struggles have ended. She has shown us the error of our ways. The way is now clear. All previous vows of fealty have been forsworn: we now pledge sole allegiance to our liberator, the great one, Dark Samus. We bear a singular honor, we lucky few, for we are her first disciples. Our burden is a happy one, for we will pave the way to her glorious victory and cosmic rule. Let the light of Phazon lead us!|[[Space Pirate Data]] "First Disciples"|Metroid Prime 3: Corruption}}</ref>
   
   
Dark Samus then ventures to [[Phaaze]], the source of all Phazon, and returns to her followers with a [[Leviathan|Leviathan seed]], a destructive seed of Phaaze. Dark Samus sends the Leviathan to the [[Pirate Homeworld]], using it to take control of all the Space Pirates. Dark Samus then invades the [[G.F.S. Valhalla]], takes [[Aurora Unit 313]], goes to Phaaze, implants it there, and takes control over the entire planet.  
After subduing the Space Pirates, Dark Samus leaves them adrift and ventures off alone to the planet [[Phaaze]], the source of all Phazon, and returns to her followers atop a [[Leviathan]], a destructive seed of Phaaze; she orders the Space Pirates to follow her back through a [[wormhole]] to her homeworld, and those who refused were slaughtered.<ref name="The Source Discovered">{{cite|After our liberation, she left us adrift. We thought this a test of our loyalty, and so we endured. Some said she abandoned us. They were promptly shot. Disciples do not doubt their leader. When she returned, it was on the back of a titanic starborne beast! As we groveled in awe, she ordered us to follow the beast through a rift in space, a wormhole. Some refused to follow, afraid of the unknown. They too were shot. Disciples must be fearless. Once through the rift, we saw a singular wonder...Phaaze, the source of all Phazon in the cosmos. Phaaze, the home of our glorious leader!|[[Space Pirate Data]] "The Source Discovered"|Metroid Prime 3: Corruption}}</ref> With the aid of her [[Phazon Corruption|corrupted]] disciples, Dark Samus invades the ''[[G.F.S. Valhalla]]'' to acquire an Aurora Unit with which she might better control her living planet. Outmatched by their Phazon-powered weapons, the ''Valhalla'' was rendered helpless, the [[Aurora Unit 313]] taken, and the crew jettisoned into space.<ref>{{cite|The vision of our leader is vast indeed. As we prepared for war with the hated Galactic Federation, she decided she required one of their great machines to better control her living planet. We then set out to bring an Aurora Unit to Dark Samus. Bribes led us to the location of our prize: the battleship Valhalla. Crewed with green recruits on a training mission, she was ours for the taking. One of the mightiest ships in the cosmos was no match for the Phazon-powered weapons of the Colossus. We rendered Valhalla helpless, then sent raiders to claim our prize. The Aurora was ours! There was no mercy for the Federation dogs. At the command of Dark Samus, we jettisoned the crew into the frigid depths of space, leaving the wreck of Valhalla as a warning to the Federation. Let them tremble before our might!|[[Space Pirate Data]] "Taking Valhalla"|Metroid Prime 3: Corruption}}</ref> Dark Samus takes the Aurora Unit to Phaaze, implants it there, and takes command of the entire planet. From there, she sends a Leviathan to the [[Pirate Homeworld]], using it to corrupt all the Space Pirates living there and gradually turning the Pirate Homeworld into a living planet of Phazon like Phaaze.<ref name=Purification>{{cite|Our great leader, with the aid of our captured Aurora Unit, has discovered many of Phaaze's secrets. Dark Samus can now command the living world to send forth Phazon Seeds! She was eager to test this new power. When we heard the first world to receive this blessing was our Homeworld, we rejoiced. The Seed was sent into the void, and quickly made its way to our Homeworld. Our brethren foolishly tried to repel it, but their efforts were in vain. To think, once we were as pathetic as them! Now the deed is done, and slowly, our Homeworld becomes like Phaaze. Soon, there will be two living planets, two Phazon sources for our great leader to use as she sees fit. Soon, there will be thousands of new disciples for her to command.|[[Space Pirate Data]] "Purification"|Metroid Prime 3: Corruption}}</ref>

Dark Samus then launches three additional Leviathans. These are destined to [[Bryyo]], [[Elysia]], and [[Norion]]. Dark Samus goes to Norion to ensure the Leviathan's impact, since it is heavily guarded by the [[Galactic Federation]]. [[Samus Aran]], [[Rundas]], [[Ghor]], and [[Gandrayda]] manage to repulse the Norion attack, but Dark Samus infects the four [[Bounty Hunter|hunters]] with Phazon. Samus was able to resist this [[Phazon Corruption|Phazon's corrupting influence]], but the three other bounty hunters eventually succumbed and became the servants of Dark Samus.

Three worlds will be attacked, each important to the Federation. We shall destroy the spy base at Elysia, the fuel production of Bryyo, and the naval station at Norion. Each of those wretched worlds will become as Phaaze...each a foothold into the territory of the hated Federation. From those worlds, our vanguard will go forth. At long last, our enemies will be humbled, then enslaved. Three Phazon Seeds will be sent, and an armada will accompany each of them. Dark Samus herself will lead the attack on Norion.

The only direct battle between Samus and Dark Samus happens on Phaaze. After her defeat by Samus, Dark Samus merges with [[Aurora Unit 313]]. Samus destroys the Aurora Unit, which purges the Phazon from Samus and Dark Samus is destroyed with no signs of Dark Samus's survival.
