Heyo peoplo!
Okay, I owe every loyal reader a loyal explanation as to why I've been so MIA lately. Well, simply put, my mom has been in the hospital for the last week and a half or so, and its not good. In a few days, I'll be back to writing royal epicness.
Now that's said, I'm starting a new story. To sum up the basic idea, Star Wolf have to team up with Star Fox to defeat Andross again. This causes a load of turbulence on the Great Fox, as Panther starts hitting on Krystal, and she doesn't care. Then Leon starts messing everything up on the ship. It seems that the only member of Star Wolf that isn't causing problems is Wolf, but wh- wait, just read the story!

Fox woke up on the hard, cold ground. Instincts told him there was somebody else in the room, unconscious. Fox pushed himself up off the hard ground, and looked behind him, to find Wolf O'Donnell, his rival-turned-ally, laying unconscious a foot or two away. Fox's arm gave out, and he hit the cold ground, arm aching. He thought for a moment, trying to get his bearings. He finally came to a result. He and Wolf were invading Andross's lair, and were ambushed, outnumbered and cornered. It was also July 23rd, which was a special date for Fox, not one he wanted to spend locked up.
And to think... this was going so well...
3 weeks ago...
The Star Fox team were all in the hangar of the Great Fox, doing the usual. Fox was getting comfortable, leaning back in his chair. Slippy was laying under his chair, repairing something. Falco was on the other side of the hangar, eating a late lunch. Peppy was taking a quick snooze in his chair. R.O.B. was idle. Finally there was Krystal, curled up asleep on her chair, snoring softly. Fox crossed his arms and lowered his head, clearly about to fall asleep.
Right as Fox was about to fall asleep completely, he was jerked awake by R.O.B.'s voice. "Fox, there are 3 ships dead ahead, they appear too damaged to run."
Fox wiped the coming sleep from his eyes and sat up. "Try to open a comm line with them."
R.O.B. pressed a few keys on the panel in front of him, and seconds later, a holographic screen appeared in the middle of the room. Everybody (well, the ones who weren't asleep, that is) was greeted with a beat up and scarred version of Wolf O'Donnell's face. Wolf O'Donnell was Fox's rival and leader of the Star Wolf team.
Fox slumped in his chair. "Aw man, it's Star Wolf."
Wolf let out a little growl. "I'm not pleased to be face-to-face with you either, McCloud!"
"Alright, what got you busted up here?"
Wolf hesitated for a moment. "Andross, actually."
"Ppft, whatever. Andross is dead and you know it."
Wolf shook his page. "No, Fox. You're wrong again."
Fox growled. "We could just leave you three here to get hit by that massive asteroid."
Wolf looked out the window of his Wolfen, and his eyes widened. "Oh no..."
"Alright, R.O.B., let's scoop these scum up and haul them off to Corneria."
R.O.B. pressed a few keys and the Great Fox scooped the three damaged Wolfens up, before proceeding toward Corneria.
Fox stood. "I'll go greet our visitors." He said grimly, and walked to the elevator. The ride down to the dock was almost like it was in slow motion. When he arrived in the dock, he was greeted by an injured Wolf slowly making his way out of his Wolfen. He was clearly stiff, and might have a broken bone. Panther was slowly climbing out of his Wolfen, and Leon was just slumped in his seat, unconscious.
They had, indeed, been attacked, but Fox wasn't about to accept the idea of Andross still being alive. Fox turned to the wall, where he pressed a series of buttons, which would request medical assistance on the dock.
"Andross is blocking the path to Corneria, Fox. You're not going to get there." Wolf said, clenching his left arm.
Fox glared at Wolf. "Andross is dead."
Wolf shook his head again. "No, Fox. He's not. I've told you this."
"What proof do you have that Andross is alive?"
"He's the only one who could inflict such damage on our team." Panther said, and rolled off his Wolfen, barely able to stand. He stumbled and fell. Wolf turned just in time to catch him.
Maybe Andross is alive? No... no, he couldn't be. I killed him. Fox thought to himself.
Before Fox could think about the subject too much, the elevator doors opened behind him, and Falco stepped into the dock, followed by Krystal. "Fox, grab Wolf. I'll take Panther. Krystal, take Leon." Falco said, approaching Panther. He grabbed the large cat by the neck of his suit and carried him to the elevator.
Fox walked to Wolf, while Krystal opened the cockpit of Leon's ship, gently carrying the chameleon out. Fox, as much as he didn't want to, grabbed Wolf and helped him to the elevator. Once all six were in the elevator, Falco pressed a button with his foot, and they were off.
A few seconds later, they arrived on the infirmary floor. Five beds were lined up, and the equipment was ready to go. Krystal gently lowered Leon onto the nearest bed, while Falco dropped Panther on the next one. Slowly, Fox and Wolf made their way to the next bed. Wolf stiffly climbed into the bed and relaxed his head on the pillow.
Fox looked around. Falco had walked off, but where to? As if the question was the command, Falco appeared out of a doorway, carrying three pairs of handcuffs.
"Is all this really necessary, Falco? They're injured. I don't think they'll be going anywhere anytime soon." Fox said, raising an eyebrow.
"Yes." Falco replied simply as he cuffed an unconscious Leon to his bed. Then Panther and finally Wolf, who growled in protest.
"We had best get to work on their injuries." Krystal said after a moment of awkward silence. "I'll take Panther."
Fox knew he was doomed to dealing with Wolf's injuries. This'll be fun.He thought to himself as he walked over to Wolf's bed.
That was way longer than I expected. Don't forget to review!
