Star Fox Next Gen: Seed of Hope or Destruction
(Wazzup! Wazzup! Wazzup! Dizzle HamHam Writer with another new fanfic. This one is another one based on Star Fox. This one is gonna be a bit different. Instead of the regular Star Fox team, this is gonna have Marcus, Fox and Krystal's son from one of the ending of Star Fox Command. As well as his, teammates Slippy's son and Lucy's daughter. Falco, who is in the team to take over Peppy's role, may not be in this story as much. For a matter of reasons. It will be explained later in the story. The story will also have a quite few FCs that I have in mind. More on them later. I got the idea of doing a fanfic of Marcus from reading Ray85's stories. It why I used the same names for Slippy and Lucy's kids. Check out his stories, Black Sun, Crimson Star, and All Father. Each of them are very good. Anyway, I think this will be fun. I always liked the idea of Marcus having a story. Now, let's get this story started.)
Also, the Star Fox series belongs to Nintendo.
The Lylat system. A part in the universe where several planets revolve around Solar. There are many planets around the Lylat system. The primary planets include Macbeth, Fortuna, Aquas, Eladard, Fichina, Venom, and Corneria. The planets of the binary subdivision are Titania, Zoness, Papetoon, Rhea, and Katina. There are also sectors X, Y, and Z. Everything was peaceful, until an evil man named Andross tried to conquer everything. A team of three pilots, James McCloud, Peppy Hare, and Pigma Dengar went off to take on this tyrant. But was not successful. Not only that, Pigma betrayed the team and James had to fight Andross alone while Peppy escaped. James didn't made it and Peppy had to tells James's son, Fox, about his father's fate. Fox then formed a team with Falco, Slippy, and Peppy to take on Andross and his army. After some rough battles, Fox and his team were able to be Andross and were claimed as heroes of the whole Lylat system. But that was just the beginning for the team. They also had to deal with Andross again, the Aparoids, the Anglar Empire, and many other tough situations. But the group always prevailed in the end. Fox himself, even found love. A young blue vixen named Krystal, the sole survivor from planet Cerinia, that he save while on Sauria. After a while, the two fell deeply in love with each other and would later get married. However, because of this, Fox decided that the best thing to do was to disband the Star Fox team. It was a sad moment, but it had to be done. So everyone went their separate ways. Slippy Toad married his sweetheart Amanda and had several little ones to look out for. Peppy Hare took over as the Corneria Army's General after former General Pepper was bed sick. Even at his old age, he is still active. Falco, always a loner, flew around planet after planet to find action like he did being in Star Fox. But he never really found true excitement. As for Fox and Krystal, they spent their life together on Corneria with their son, a blue little pup named Marcus. Marcus was a chip off the block, since he also wanted to be a pilot like his dad. He grew up to be a fine young man and wants to be as good as a hero as his parents. After graduating Corneria Flight Academy with high grades, he then took his friends, A yellow frog named Freddy, the son of Slippy and Amanda and A grey furred rabbit girl named, Abigail, the daughter of Lucy and Granddaughter of Peppy, to form the new Star Fox team. The three youngings went off and found Falco, a veteran from the previous Star Fox, to join them as the team's advisor. The new Star Fox team was born. They continue to fight for good and protect the Lylat system from evil. So far, they haven't faced any true evil. But that is all about to change. A major threat is about to emerge. Something that could change the whole Lylat System.
Somewhere, on a part on Corneria...a group of bandits, about 8 of them, all ravens, were causing havoc in a small town in their black and red colored ships.
"Bwahaha!" One of the ravens said. "After we set this town ablaze, we'll take all the treasure that's left."
"Yeah! Hehe! It's fun to wreak a little havoc with these ships." Said another raven.
At that moment, that raven's ship was shot down by laser fire.
"Wha...WHAT?" The raven shouted before his ship with falling to the ground. "I've...I'VE BEEN HIT! I'M GOING DOWN! WAAAAAHHHH!"
The ship fell down with a small explosion. The raven in that ship was definitely roasted.
"Who...shot him down?" One of the ravens said.
The ravens then all started to get a transmission on their ships.
"*sigh* All you rogue thieves are the same." The voice from the transmission said. "It gets old really fast."
Then from the air, there were four ships. They were all different ship. One of them was an Arwing. Arwing II to be precise. It's pilot was a young blue fox wearing an blue pilot shirt with grey pants, a silver jacket and a yellow scarf. It was Marcus. Leader of the new Star Fox team.
"Okay guys. Just a few rogue bandits." Marcus said to his crew mates. "We should be able to handle these guys easy."
One of the three other ships were a new version of the Bullfrog, piloted by a young orange frog wearing a blue pilot suit, silver jacket, and black fedora hat. It was Freddy.
"I can take these guys with my eyes close." Freddy said a bit overconfident.
Another ship was the Sky Bunny revised. It was piloted by a young grey slender girl rabbit wearing a pink flight suit with a white vest. Her name was Abigail Cooper-Hare.
"Please don't." Abigail said. "The last thing we need is to save you from enemy fire cause you got overconfident."
The last ship was the Skyclaw. An Arwing custom build for its pilot. Who was none other than a legend from the last Star Fox team. A tall blue feathered avian bird, middle aged wearing a red suit, and black jacket. He also wore black sunglasses and had gold boots. It was none other than Falco Lombardi. Still being an active pilot.
"Abby girl is right, Fred." Falco said. "You don't how many times we had to save your pop when he was in trouble. Don't be a screw-up like him."
"Hey. My dad said he didn't screw up all the time." Freddy replied.
"Clearly he didn't told you enough." Falco said smirking.
"Haha. Okay guys. I think it's time we focus." Marcus said wanting them to stop.
"Who...who are you guys?" One of the ravens said.
"We're the Star Fox team." Marcus replied proudly.
"Star Fox?" One of the ravens said. "You're...a couple of kids and just one adult."
" Don't underestimate us cause we our young." Abigail replied. "We don't go down easy."
"As for me, I NEVER go down." Falco said.
"Okay everyone. Let's take it to them." Marcus said giving them the orders to attack.
"Roger!" Falco, Freddy, and Abigail responded.
The four pilots all got into formation and commence their attack on the bandits' ships. The bandits didn't want to go down without a fight, so they went in for the attack as well. The dog fight between the Star Fox team and the Raven Rogues began. They were seven rogue ships after they toke out one of the ships. They were a little outnumbered, but the team knew they could handle it. Marcus fire some of his lasers at one of the ships. Blasting off one of the wings causing the ship to go crashing down to the ground.
"One more down." Marcus said cheerily.
Abigail was tailing one of the ships and shooting at it, but it kept dodging her fire.
"This one is a little wild. I can't get a shot on him" Abigail said a bit frustrated. "Hold still!"
After a while, she was finally able to hit the ships back thrusters and was able to get multiple blasts and the enemy ship blew up into pieces.
"Alright!" Abigail said smiling.
While she had took on that ship, two other ships were tailing and attacking Freddy.
"WAAAAHHHHH! Someone help! I'm being double tailed." Freddy shouted.
Falco let out a big sigh and flew over to help him out.
"Just like his father...always getting into trouble..." Falco said. "Hang on Fred. I'll help ya out."
Falco flew his ship to Freddy's direction and fired his laser at one of the ships taking it down. With that done, Freddy did a somersault to get behind the second ship that was tailing him and open fire on it.
"Take this." Freddy shouted.
Freddy was able to blow the other ship to pieces.
"Haha! Got em!" Freddy said.
"You're welcome for the assist, by the way." Falco told Freddy.
"Uhh...yeah. Thanks Falco." Freddy said.
"You really are just like you old man." Falco said.
While Falco and Freddy toke out those two ships, Marcus and Abigail were cleaning house with the remaining fighters. There was only one ship left to deal with.
"Just one more to go." Marcus said. Marcus then hit the comm system of the last ship. "Hey you. All your other pals are toast. You can't either give up and turn yourself in or end up like them."
"Hmpt! You expect me to rot in a cell for life?" The raven asked. "Not gonna happen."
The raven's ship started to flew away from the others. He was making a run for it.
"We got a runner." Abigail said alerting the others.
"That dirty..." Falco shouted.
"Never want the easy way." Marcus said. "Commence pursuit, guys."
Everyone hit the boosters to try and catch the ship. They fire a few shot at him, but he getting by them. Seem like he was really good at dodging compared to the other ones.
"This guy's is a slippery one." Freddy said.
"He's pretty fast, too." Marcus said.
"Leave him to me." Falco said. "My Skyclaw can match his speed."
Falco's Skyclaw was the fastest out of all the others ship. Mainly cause it was built for speed. Falco tailed the enemy ship and started shooting his lasers at it. The raven was still dodging pretty good.
"Grrr...Hold still and let me shoot you." Falco said a bit angry not getting a shot on him.
Then Falco got a lucky shot in and blasted off the left wing of the ship. Then was also able to take out the boosters.
"Got ya!" Falco shouted.
"My wing! My boosters!" The raven shouted.
"Game over, pal." Falco said.
"Grrrr...if I'm going down, I'm at least gonna take out the Great Falco." The raven shouted.
The raven then turn his ship around and charged at Falco's ship. He madly fired his lasers at Falco.
"Tch! So his just charging at me now.
A few shots and actually damage his Skyclaw and majority damage both his wings.
"GAAHHH! Taking too much damage." Falco shouted.
"FALCO!" Marcus, Freddy, and Abigail shouted.
"HAHAHAHA!" The raven laughed manically. "YES! DIE BY MY HANDS!"
"Not on my watch." Freddy shouted. "Smart bomb!"
Freddy fired a smart bomb and the raven's ship was blown to bits. The last thing they heard was the scream of the last raven's defeat.
"Good riddance." Freddy said.
"Nice job, Fred." Marcus said.
They may have beaten all the ships, but they were still a problem. Falco ship took too much damage was starting to descend fast from the air.
"Tch! The rat with wings still got some good hits on me." Falco admitted. "My ship is going down. I'm gonna crash."
"WHAT?" Freddy and Abigail shouted.
"Pull up, Falco. PULL UP!" Marcus said.
"I'm...trying..." Falco said while pulling on his controller.
Falco tried to make his ship go up, but it wasn't working. His ship continue to go down.
"Nothing's working. All I can do is tilt the ship a bit and brace for the worst." Falco said holding the controls.
The ship was going down faster and faster. Only a few seconds before it crashes to the ground.
"Falco! Come on." Abigail shouted.
"Here's comes the impact." Falco said.
The Skyclaw went crashing down the ground sliding on the dirt and stopping when it crash near a rock. The ship was majority damage. But was Falco still okay?
"FALCO!" Marcus, Freddy, and Abigail shouted.
Marcus then tried calling him on his ship's comm.
"Falco, come in. Are you alright?" Marcus said. No response. "Falco, COME IN. Say something? FALCO?!"
Falco still didn't respond. It was because he was knocked out cold from the crash. His ship was massively damage and so was himself. The others adamantly called the Great Fox II to get Falco and his ship. Falco needed admitted medical care.
A few hours later, Falco was taking to the Corneria Hospital. Currently he was laying on a hospital bed with a case on his right arm and bandages all over his body. He was awake, but not too happy about everything. A black and red female robin was his nurse.
"Oww!" Falco shouted as he was still in pain.
"I told you. Don't move so much." The nurse said.
"Easy for you to say." Falco said. "I hate staying still."
Marcus, Abigail, and Freddy were also in the room with Falco. They were pretty much chuckling at him.
"Look on the bright side. At least you're still alive after that crash." Marcus said trying to lighten Falco's mood.
"Haha! Didn't you say something about never going down?" Freddy asked "Yet out of all of us, you were the one to go crashing down."
Freddy laugh a bit more, which kinda pissed Falco off.
"Watch it kid. Don't forget who save your butt." Falco stated. "Ugh...these injures...and what's worse is my baby as all torn battered and beaten."
"By " baby" I'm assuming you mean your ship." Abigail said.
"Don't worry Falco." Marcus said. "ROB will have you ship repaired in no time. You just rest up."
"Guess that bucket of bolts is still good for something." Falco said. "Now I just need to heal up and I'll will be back to where I belong. The sky and the stars."
"That won't be for some time." The nurse said. "You did quite a number on yourself."
"So, how long are we talkin? Four, Five days?" Falco asked.
"Try weeks." The nurse replied.
Hearing that, Falco nearly jumped up from his bed. Guessing weeks is NOT what he wanted to hear.
"WEEKS?! FOUR OR FIVE WEEKS?! YOU'RE JOKING, RIGHT?" Falco shouted and flailing around. But the moving around caused him pain and he started gripping his chest. "Oww."
"Six, if you don't stop moving and let your body heal." The nurse said starting to lose her patience with Falco. She then showed Falco and the others a few X-rays. "You broke a few ribs, both your legs, and an arm. Anymore broken bones and we would have you fitted for a body bag."
"Damnit. This is just great." Falco shouted even more pissed. "This is just the worst day for me. First I let some chump get some hits on me, my own ship gets total, and I'm out of commission for what seems like it's gonna be over a month. This is some day for me."
Marcus, Freddy, and Abigail didn't know what to say to Falco. They all know he is the kind of guy who lives for action and doesn't like to rest. He was the same way when he was still on Fox's Star Fox team. But it could be helped, he had to stay out of missions for a while. At that moment, one of the male doctors, a brown and white husky came in the room. This got everyone's attention.
"Excuse me? Is one of you named Marcus McCloud?" The husky asked.
"That's me." Marcus replied.
"Fox and Krystal McCloud are here, waiting at the lobby." The husky said.
"Oh. Mom and Dad are here?" Marcus said.
Hearing that Fox and Krystal were here, made Falco go even crazier.
"What? Oh nononono! NO!" Falco shouted "I can't NOT let Fox seem me like this. He'll never let me forget it for the rest of my life." Then Falco started to feel some more pain on his body. "Ouch!"
"Didn't I told you to stay still?" The nurse replied.
"Relax Falco." Marcus said. "I think visiting hours are almost over anyway."
"*sigh* That's a relief." Falco said.
Marcus then had a devilish smirk on his face. "Buuuuuut...even so..." Marcus said. He then took out his smart phone and took a picture of Falco's current situation. "I'm sure dad would LOVE to see a pic of you. Just to make sure you okay."
"MARCUS! YOU LITTLE..." Falco shouted pissed and frantically moving around the bed. "Give me that...ow ow OWW!" He kept forgetting that his body STILL pretty beat up. The robin nurse then had to hold Falco down.
"Okay. That's it." The nurse said with no more patience. "Doctor, can you..."
"I was hoping to avoid this." The doctor said.
The husky then took out a needle from his jacket.
"Now, hold him still nurse." The doctor said.
"Uh oh!" Marcus, Abigail, and Freddy said together.
"A...needle?" Falco said a little scared. Guess Falco isn't too fond of needles. "Get that away from me. You don't need to be using that, right? Heheh..."
"Trust me. This is for your own good." The doctor said.
The doctor then stick the needle right into Falco's right arm. Falco let out a large "SCRAWK!" because of the pain from the needle. The injection then goes into Falco's body. Falco then started to feel woozy from the shot.
"He..ey. Wh..a...t was...it...that?" Falco said groggy. "I...suddenly feel...great."
Then just like that, Falco went out like a light.
"This shot has a type of anesthesia." The doctor said. "He will be asleep for a while."
"*sigh* You don't know how happy I am for you for doing that." The nurse said.
"Sorry. He can be a bit much sometimes." Abigail said.
"Guess we should leave for now." Marcus said.
"Yeah. Your mom and dad might be wondering how you have been." Freddy said.
"Right." Marcus said. "Well, see you later...and when you are awake, Falco."
Marcus and the others left the room. Since Falco is still gonna be in the hospital for a while, it just gonna be the three of them for now. The three walk down to the hospital lobby, where two adult foxes were waiting for them. The first was a male fox with orange fur and a goatee. A bit muscular wear a white suit with a flight jacket and blue jeans. It was Marcus's dad, the famous retired pilot, Fox. The second was female with blue and white fur. She wore a pink t-shirt and white pants. It was Krystal's, Fox's wife and the mother of Marcus. Both Fox and Krystal noticed their son and smiled.
"There's our boy." Fox said smiling.
"Hey dad." Marcus replied.
"Oh. My baby boy." Krystal said before hugging Marcus tightly.
"Mom. I'm not a baby anymore." Marcus whispered to his mom a little embarrassed. "Also, not in front of my friends."
"Now. Now. You'll always be my baby boy to me." Krystal said still holding her son.
"Mom. You can stop now." Marcus pleaded.
Krystal then stopped hugging. But then started to check her son to see if he had any injuries. She would often do this everytime Marcus comes back from a mission.
"You aren't hurt from you mission, are you?" Krystal asked.
"No. I'm fine. You don't have to worry about me." Marcus said.
"I'm you mother. It's my job." Krystal replied. "We were heard that Falco got injured and was sent to this hospital, we were worried that you kids were hurt too."
"We are all fine, Mrs. McCloud." Abigail said.
"I'm as fit as a tadpole." Freddy replied.
"Well it's good to hear you kids are alright." Fox said smiling. "But how is Falco doing?"
"A bit banged up, but his still okay." Marcus said. "But they say he's gonna be out for four to five weeks. Maybe six."
"Knowing Falco, he probably isn't too happy about that." Fox said.
"No. He wasn't." Marcus said.
"He got so riled up, they had to give him an anesthesia." Abigail stated.
"I understand." Fox replied. "Can we still get a look at him?"
"Visiting hours are supposed to be ending soon." Marcus said.
"What a shame." Fox said. "I wanted to talk to him, see if he was okay...maybe laugh at his face a bit for getting himself in trouble."
"Fox! You shouldn't laugh about stuff like that." Krystal said. "Falco is our friend."
"I know, but you know how he can be." Fox said.
"I did get a picture of his current situation." Marcus said holding his smartphone.
Marcus then show them the picture of Falco all beat up and covered in bandages. The image also had Falco with a surprised look on his face. Mainly cause he didn't expect someone to take a picture of him. Seeing the picture, Fox and Krystal slightly chuckled at the site of him.
"Heehee!" Krystal laughed. "I know I shouldn't laugh, but that look on his face."
"Ah yes. This made my day." Fox said laughing. "Even with him like this, I'm sure he'll be fine after some rest."
"Yeah. I'm sure he will be back to being his cocky self." Marcus said.
Everybody then did a long sighed. Let's face it, Falco was a handful to deal with on the old Star Fox team and he doesn't slack with the kids either. Fox then looks at his son to tell him something.
"Oh Marcus. Since you're here on Corneria, how about you come home and have dinner with your folks." Fox asked.
See Marcus and his team has been spending most of their time traveling around space and the Lylat System. So he has really been home for quite some time.
"Guess it has been some time." Marcus said. "I'd love too, but I got to report our last mission to the General first."
"Oh don't worry about that Marc." Abigail said. "I'll report to gramps. I was going to see him anyway. So go on. Spend some time with your folks."
Hearing that, Marcus smiled at Abigail.
"Thanks Abby." Marcus said happily. "Okay Mom and Dad. Guess you got me for the rest of the day."
"Excellent. We were hoping you would say that." Fox said smiling.
"It will be good to have you back at the house." Krystal said happily.
"I think you have the right idea about spending time with your family, Marcus." Freddy admitted. "Maybe I should visit dad, mom, and all my brothers and sisters and see how they are doing."
"Sounds like a good idea." Marcus said.
"Then you should go right away." Krystal said. "You know how much your mother worries about you, Freddy."
"Right. Guess you would know." Freddy said scratching the back of his head. "Well, see ya Marcus. See ya Abby."
"Bye." Marcus and Abigail said.
With that said, Freddy waved goodbye to everyone and left the hospital.
"I'll be leaving too. See ya." Abigail said.
Abigail left too, since she had to report to General Peppy after their last mission. That and Peppy was her grandfather. Now it was just Marcus, Fox, and Krystal.
"Well, shall we get going?" Fox asked his son.
"Yeah." Marcus said smiling.
Fox put his arm around Marcus's shoulder as they walk to the exit of the hospital and leave the building. They walk to a sleek looking white car. It was their car. They all went in the car. Fox was driving, of course, with Krystal on the passenger's seat and Marcus sat in the back. Everyone put on their seatbelts and Fox's began to drive. While he was driving, Marcus just looked in the window staring at the sky with a bored look on his face.
"So Marcus, anything special you want for dinner tonight?" Krystal asked.
"Oh. I'm okay with anything." Marcus responded still looking bored.
"I was thinking maybe some steaks with some fingerling potatoes, since it's your favorite." Krystal said.
"It's mine too." Fox stated.
"That sounds good." Marcus responded. But he still had a bored look in his face. Krystal then notice.
"Is there something wrong, dear?" Krystal asked.
"No. Nothing wrong." Marcus replied. Krystal gave Marcus a look. She knew he was lying.
"Marcus. You know you can't hide anything from your mother." Krystal stated. "I know when something is wrong and when your upset." Krystal was referring to not only her mother's intuition, but her telekinesis abilities. Marcus had these abilities as well, but wasn't as good as his mother yet. "So tell us, what's wrong?"
Marcus realized that he might as well tell his parents.
"Honestly mom and dad, I'm bored." Marcus said.
"Bored?" Fox and Krystal responded looking confused.
"I mean, I know my life is pretty okay right now. I'm the son of the Great Fox McCloud and Krystal McCloud. As well as the grandson of Grandpa James. I graduated the Conerina Flight Academy at 16 at the top of my class. Form the new Star Fox team with Lucky and Abigail. Even found the legendary Falco to join us. But for the past two years, the friends and I have barely done anything to put our names out there in the Lylat systems." Marcus stated.
"Oh I see." Fox said. "You want more action, right?"
"Don't get me wrong." Marcus said. "So far, we token down a few bandits, evil plotters, and even did some rescue missions. My team and I did a lot, but...it still doesn't compare to the things you did."
"Does it bother you a bit?" Fox asked.
"No. Of course not. But still, beating Andross more than once and saving the Lylat System from destruction more than once is hard to beat." Marcus said.
"Marcus, you shouldn't worry about that stuff." Krystal said. "I mean you're still young. You're only 18."
"Your mom is right." Fox said.
"But...weren't you 18 when you first defeated Andross?" Marcus asked his dad. Fox responded by being a little bit surprised.
"How did you figure that out?" Fox asked.
"I read the files on your battle like a hundred times." Marcus said smirking. "That and I heard the story since I was still a young pup."
"Heh. Guess I shouldn't be surprised." Fox said.
"Hey dad. Mom. Do you...you know...miss being in action?" Marcus asked.
Fox and Krystal then looked at each other for a second. Then responded to Marcus's question.
"Son, I would be lying if I said I didn't miss flying in my Arwing." Fox said. "That part will always be a part of me."
"The same goes for me." Krystal said. "I was always a born warrior."
"But...I believe that I made the right choice." Fox said. "I wanted to be with you mother, so I disbanded the team. It was the hardest decision in my life.
"But if it wasn't for that, you may not have been here today. So remember that." Krystal said.
"I understand." Marcus said. "I just want to do my best to make you both proud of me."
"We already are." Krystal told him with a light smile.
Marcus smile as well. But he still had to ask them one more question.
"One more question dad. How long did it took before you had a really good adventure?" Marcus asked.
"Pretty long." Fox answered. "After defeating Andross, most of the time, the guys and I were B & B. Bored and Broke. We barely had any paying mission, so the Great Fox barely had repairs. We were lucky to get something good every couple of months.
"MONTHS?!" Marcus shouted.
"Sometimes years." Fox said.
"Years?!" Marcus shouted again. "Ah man! I'm gonna be as old as Peppy before I get something good."
"Heehee! I think you over-exaggerating." Krystal said giggling.
"Don't worry kiddo. You'll be ready if there is trouble." Fox said. "And if nothing happens, well...you still be okay."
"That doesn't really stop my boredom." Marcus said crossing his arm.
Fox and Krystal responded by laughing some more. Marcus went back to looking at the car window and staring at the sky.
"Maybe I'm asking for too much." Marcus thought. "Mom and Dad are right. I am still pretty young. But still what some big to happen."
Little did Marcus know. Something was about to happen. Soon he would play a big part in one of the biggest battles any one would ever face. On another planet in the Lylat System, something was happening on the planet Eladard. Eladard was considered to be the most populated planet in Lylat. However, to those that live outside of Eladard, the military information was always classified. The truth is, that the planet did have a military power. The Eladard Army. Similar to the Corneria Army. They fight to protect their planet. But it seems like they were planning to do something else. In the Eladard Army HQ, several soldiers were line up in a large room waiting to hear words from their commander. All the soldiers wore black with some white flight suits. Among some of the soldiers were two young foxes, a black and a red one. (These two are gonna be really important characters, so remember them.) All the solider stood still to wait to hear words from their general. Then the general showed up. He was middle aged black and gray coyote and he wore a black general's coat. He had a serious, sort of emotionless look in his face. His name is General Terus Silverborn. All the soldiers look at him as he was really to speak.
"Attention soldiers." Terus said. "So far, our efforts to make our planet Eladard peaceful have been successful so far. However, we still need to improve our efforts. Over the years, many things have happen to not just our planet or the Lylat Systems. Andross, The Aparoids, The Angular Army, and let's not forget, the Zurum Attack on our own planet."
All the soldiers went silent. See, the Zurum Attack was something that happen ten years ago on planet Eladard. (More on that later in the story.) General Terus continue talking.
"We should be haunted by those images anymore." Terus said. "We have to stay strong and never forget that." All the soldiers nodded and saluted. "Today, I brought you all here to say this. Like it or not, the whole Lylat System is still impure. We need to do our best to make this whole universe pure and good again. But with criminals and rebels against our army, things haven't been easy."
"Rebels against our army?" A black fox said to himself.
"We also found out about, what we call the Seed of Destruction." Terus said.
"Seed of Destruction?" A red fox said confused.
"It is said, that someone out there in the Lylat System will have to make a decision that may bring destruction to all of Lylat." Terus said.
"Someone?" A black fox thought. "As in a person? He must be some evil person."
"We were even able to find out who it is." Terus said. "The Seed of Destruction name is..."
He then put up a monitor to reveal to all them who this Seed of Destruction was. It toke about for seconds before the image to pop up. When it did, the image was of a young blue fox.
"...Marcus McCloud." Terus said.
Wait, WHAT?! Marcus is the Seed of Destruction? That can't be right. Something must be up. What does all of this mean? What do the Eladard Army really up to? Are they really planning to purify the Lylat System, or is there more to it?
To be continued...
