I bought this one which has 3 stems so 3 palms in one pot...It had flowered when I bought it...I noticed today that there are some sore of side shoot coming out of one of them?

Is that going to be the flower? what is the season that C.Metallica begins to flower?

@Pal Meir Pal as always need your comments here :)

You may be lucky enough to have a male and a female in the same pot.

It is not dead, it is just senescence.

Mohsen, I’ve found an old pic of yours from January: You are lucky, it seems that you have 2 (?) females and 1 male.

I am not sure why they didn't form seeds last year ? is there any particular season they start flower and form fruiting?anything I should do to increase the chance this year?

Yes Mosen, it is like people you rub the pink bits together when they are both in the mood.

But, if the staminate flower pollen is dropping before the pistillate flowers are open, you can cut them off and keep it in a paper bag (not plastic) until the female flowers are open then stick the female heads into the paper bag and give it a good shake, well it has worked for me with other Chamys, but there are probably better ways.
