I was sitting in my house playing a mission on Starfox and flying over Corneria. My mind wandered somewhere else besides the game. I heard Fox call out for backup, though I couldn't tell who he was calling. The voices in the game seemed to blur into real life when I heard a female voice behind me. Thinking I was tired, I slumped into the couch and the world felt like an infinite abyss and I'm falling into it. I suddenly felt grass underneath and the controller wasn't in my hands anymore. I shook my head and came back to reality.
In front of me was a city devastated. I wasn't in my house anymore. Buildings were toppling and fires had broken out everywhere. I stood and a BOOM shook the ground and something flew past me, the wind blast behind it knocking me over. I saw a familiar shape of an arwing just before I hit the ground with an "Oomph." I raised my head to see again but it was already gone. I turned to the other direction and saw five cone-like ships racing towards me. One of them fired and a second later the ground exploded next to me. I thought, Oh shit, I'm dead. I darted my eyes everywhere until they settled on a burning building a hundred feet away from me and ran towards it. Just before I reached the complex, I looked back up to see the five ships become incinerated by an approaching arwing. I put my hands up hoping it wouldn't shoot. It flies over me slowly and I realize it was ignoring me. Dropping my hands, I sighed in relief. There was a swooshing noise like steam escaping from a pipe and I turned a one-eighty and saw the arwing that had landed. I threw my hands up again thinking, Oh god, I'm screwed, and the cockpit started to open.
Fox McCloud raised out of cockpit with his gun lifted up. I thought, This is the weirdest thing that ever happened to me. He took one good look at me and said, "What are you?"
"I'm a human," I stammered.
"Never heard of a human before." He paused. "Why do you have your hands up?"
"Uh, it means I'm unarmed."
Fox nodded and lowered his weapon.
"Am I on Corneria?" I asked.
He hefted his gun up again. "How do you know about this planet?"
I thought it was a bad idea to say it was from a video game so I said, "My ship was shot down. I wandered here." I paused. "Can you help me?"
"With what?" he asked.
"I have no way off this planet."
He thought for a second. "I can take you to my ship and locate your planet there." He waved over to his ship and I climbed into the back seat of the arwing. I've never seen any of this in real life! Fox crawled into the cockpit and closed the hatch. He pressed a few buttons on the console and the ground seemed like it was sinking below and passing by us. We flew through the clouds until they cleared and I got my first look at the Great Fox mother ship. We landed in the middle of the hanger with the other ships and got out with Fox McCloud to walk down a few advanced hallways. All the doors in it were closed besides the one at the end of the corridor. When we walked in the door, I saw a few familiar beings sitting around a table just before I was tackled to the ground. Falco had pinned me down.
"It's okay for him to be here," Fox said.
Falco didn't look sure but he jumped off and helped me back up with his feathered hands. This time I managed to get a good look at the table with characters from my game surrounding it: Peppy, Slippy...
Fox walked up to the table and beckoned me over to introduce the crew. Since I already knew who they all were, I sat down and accepted the greetings like they were a first. When Fox had brought me a plate of food, I ate it even though I didn't know what it was as the crew talked about their latest mission. Fox glanced at me and behind his back and lowered his voice. Something nagged in the back of my mind until suddenly I realized one of the crew members had said something about a ship they took down. We were going to be under attack again. Fox noticed and turned around.
"I need to talk to you private," I said to him.
He gave me a suspicious look and came over.
"I know you may not believe me, but you're going to be under attack soon."
His eyes narrowed, "How do you know?"
"What's the risk in doing a long-range scan?"
"How do you know about all that?" He was getting agitated now. I was on thin ice.
"I stole some plans. That's why I was shot down."
He asked about the scan and I replied, "It's common sense that a ship this big would have a ship radar."
He nodded and started to walk to the hallway but he stopped at the doorway and said, "You're coming with me."
When we reached the bridge, he started up the ship scanner; it didn't show anything.
"Is this a joke?" Fox asked.
"No. Scan in inferred."
He looked skeptical but he did it anyway and little dots appeared on the screen. Fox's eyes widened and grabbed the intercom. "Attention! Everyone report to your battle stations!" He ran out of the room and I followed him. He was faster than me, but I kept up behind him and at least we didn't have to run for very long to the hanger. When we did, I saw the pink arwing had already left. Fox ran to his arwing and stopped to turn around toward me. "Are you any good at turrets?"
I figured it wouldn't be hard so I said, "Yeah, sure."
Fox jumped into the cockpit and I followed. Soon we were sitting on the outside of the ship. A control panel folded out in front of me and a cannon appeared above the cockpit. I gave the stick a swivel and got the hang of it quickly. The arwing lifted off the ground and we left the hanger to fly towards the ships we saw on the radar. Apparently they saw us because they broke their formation on the radar and changed into a circular one that went all around our flanks. Faster than the arwings, they fired bolts of deep purple but Fox and the other arwings were more skilled; they dodged the bolts with a barrel roll. I fired at a ship's front section and flames spewed out. I thought, Man, this is gonna' be easy.
The smoke cleared and I saw the ship was undamaged. Fox looked at the ship and said, "Stop shooting."
"Why?" I asked.
"They have force fields."
"They must have some sort of weakness."
Fox nodded and we started to circle around the ship look for a weak point, dodging laser bolts. Finally we shot at the engines and to our surprise it blew up. Suddenly all the other ships turned and shot at us, but we managed to dodge most of them. A few hit us so we started to go down.
Fox's voice on the intercom called for backup and Peppy, Falco, and Slippy responded, but then I heard a voice I didn't recognize. It was female. She sounded really hot.
"Who was that?" I asked Fox.
"That's Krystal, the newest member of the team," he replied.
I remembered the pink arwing back in the hanger and realized that must have been hers. As we spiraled towards the ground I saw Krystal's arwing fly over us. She deployed her tow cable and caught us on the wing, gently lowered us to the ground. After, she released the tow cable to evade the ships that were flying towards her. Fox saw them and explained to her how to destroy them. She made quick work of the ships. Fox saw that I was staring at her ship in amazement and said, "Yeah, she's a very good pilot. Everyone came to us on the ground and opened their hatches. I starred intently at Krystal's, waiting to see what type of being she was. The hatch opened and a beautiful blue-furred fox with emerald eyes and a blue slender jumpsuit jumped out and walked over to our ship. I couldn't stop starring at her. She smiled at me and I did back. She introduced herself and I stuttered my name until I managed to spit it out. She giggled and looked down like she was shy. She walked over to talk to Fox as I got out and started to walk around.
"Don't wonder far," Fox told me.
I walked a few yards away from the ship and stretched my arms and turned around to see Krystal leaning over into the hood of her arwing. Krystal had the most gorgeous ass I've ever seen. I could feel my pants tighten and I turned away from the group trying to calm down. After a few minutes Fox called me over. Luckily it had subsided. I walked back over to the arwing and got in it, glancing over at Krystal's arwing. The hatch had closed and I hoped I would get another chance to talk to her. Our hatch closed and we took off towards GreatFox.
