-1 Week after the annihilation of the Aparoid queen.
Fox:"ugggh, my head. thats the last time i let Falco talk me into drinking with him again. aww man, what happened." Fox pulled himself from the floor and looked around the room he was in. Falco was passed out face first on the couch, Slippy was asleep in the bathtub, and Krystal was sleeping on the bed. Fox:"oh, thats right, ever since we stopped the aparoids we've been partying every night non-stop on this battle cruiser. Well we should be back in Corneria in a few days. But thats enough partying for me." Fox held his head and tried to ignore the pain of his hangover.
He stumbled into the hallway almost collapsing with every step. The entire floor was filled with empty cans and bottles of either beer or hard alcahol. In any other situation the crew would be severely punished. Some of the crew were even passed out in the with bottles still clutched in they're hands. Fox:"But what exactly happened last night?"He reached food hall and his memory flooded back into his mind.
Falco:"come on Foxie, one more night of partying."Fox:"Thats what you said last night, and the night before that!"Falco:"aww come on Fox, look even Slippys into it tonight." And sure enough, theyre was Slippy, having a drinking contest with Bill and three other :"Alright what the hell."He grabbed the nearest bottle of beer and started chugging :"ALRIGHT BOYS, LET ME SHOW YOU HOW ITS DONE!"Falco:"Alriight, now its my turn."Krystal:"Did you just talk Fox into drinking.....again?" He turned around to see a rather angry looking vixen staring him in the face. Falco:"aww, whats the big deal, its a hey maybe if he gets drunk enough, he'll ask you out on a date." He said as he winked. Krystal started to blush heavily. Krystal:"What are you talking about, why would he...your already drunk. Aren't you. "Falco:"maybe a little......"He said while holding an empty bottle of whisky. He obviously had trouble standing. Krystal:"well.....i suppose partying just this once wouldnt hurt anything...." Falco was blantently surprised by her answer. The whole week she hadn't had a drop to drink. Falco: "Thats the spirit, here's some whiskey.....woops, this ones empty.....when did that happen? oh well here have a few beers." Krystal took a beer from a nearby icebox and took a sip. It wasn't the greatest thing she ever tasted, but it was drinkable. She decided to have a few more, and before long found herself relativly drunk.
Soon, Fox,Falco,Slippy and Krystal were challenging the soilders to match Team StarFox at drinking. Needless to say even despite Slippy and Krystal's inexperience at drinking, they beat everyone they had a tough time with Bill and his team. After a few hours of drinking games and chugging competitions, everyone started to stumble back to their rooms. Most not even making it halfway.
Fox: "Woah, last night got pretty crazy. AHH! heh heh, and i've got the hangover to prove it." Deciding it was best to clean himself before heading back to his room, he made his way to the showers. Nobody was there. He wasn't even sure if anyone else was up yet. After a short shower, Fox got some new clothes on and walked back to the room to wake everyone up. Fox:"hey, Falco, wake up......WAKE UP!" He shouted into his ear. Falco:"JEEZ LOUISE, WHAT WAS THAT FOR!" Fox :"That, was for talking me into drinking so much last night." Falco:"uggggh, my head. That was your choice idiot. Don't blame me for your idiocy." Fox:"I don't, i blame you for YOUR idiocy. But anyway, go wake Slippy up. We should probobly start waking up this sad excuse for a crew." Falco:"Yeah yeah, just gimmie a minute." Falco laid back down and closed his eyes. Fox: "FALCO!" "SHUT UP I'M AWAKE!" Fox decided to forget about his lazy ass friend for the moment and went over to the bed. Fox:"Krystal, hey Krystal wake up.(Man i cant believe even she got drunk last night.) Come on Krystal get up." Krystal: "Fox? whats going on? What happened last night?" She had a look of utter embarrasment on her face. Fox:"i'll tell you later, just get up for now."He said with a smile and while chuckling a bit.
About an hour later, the whole starfox team was up and had cleaned themself off. Although thier hangovers couldn't be fixed so easily. Peppy walked in the door of the room. Peppy:"Well i see your all up and ready to go." Falco:"Not so loud old man, we had a rough night." Slippy: "You said it Falco. But it was a fun night....well the parts i remember anyway. "Peppy: "Well I'm glad you youngsters had fun. But anyway, we'll be landing in Corneria city in a few hours so be prepared to leave. We are technically guests on this ship. We've gotta find a place to stay, since the Great Fox was destroyed. Hey wait.....where are Fox and Krystal?" Falco and Slippy just looked at each other and shrugged as they had asked themselves the same question.
By the time Peppy had entered the room, Fox and Krystal were already in the kitchen about to make some breakfast for themselves. Although Fox did have some alterier motives. One of which was to be alone with Krystal for awhile to try and get to know her better. Fox: "So what do you want to eat Krystal? Since the chef is passed out on the table over there i guess I'm stuck making the food for us." Krystal: "I'd love some pancakes, but can you cook?" Fox: "Well....My mother taught me the basics when i was still young...before...."He froze for a second. "Never mind that. I can cook... but uhh, I wouldn't mind some help." He said a bit nervously and smiling at her. Krystal: "Alright, i can help you, but ive never cooked before so you have to tell me what to do. She moved closer to him, which made him a bit nervous." Fox:"F-fair enough." Inside the kitchen was possibly the only room in the ship which wasn't a complete war zone. Everything was neat and where it was supposed to be. Krystal climbed a small foot ladder and looked in a high cupboard for the pancake mix. She found it and started pulling it out from the back. However, she didn't move the packages away from the front. Fox:"Watch out, dont let anything fa-POOF!" Fox's face was covered in all sorts of cooking powders. Krystal couldn't hold back her laughter. Fox couldn't tell if she was laughing at him, or with him.
After Fox cleaned his fur of all the cooking gunk, the two continued cooking until they had made a few good(and some not so good)pancakes. They ate inside the kitchen leaning against the counters. Telling eachother a few things the other didn't know about themselves. The talked untill long after they finished eating. Fox: "Krystal we've been in her for an hour. I think we should head back. The guys might get the wrong idea." Krystal: "And what might the wrong idea be exactly?" She said in a serious tone. Fox: "I uhh...nothing, let's go." Krystal: "Haha, I'm kidding Fox. Don't get so worked up." Fox: "....right." The two continued talking as they walked back to their room. But stopped immediatly when they got there. Peppy: "And just where were you two? On a romantic stroll passed the drunken soilders?" Falco and Slippy laughed while Fox and Krystal both blushed. Fox: "we..we were just getting some breakfast Peppy, calm down." Peppy: "Alright whatever, but we have a real problem Fox. We don't have anywhere to stay when we reach Corneria city. Got any ideas?" Fox gave it some serious thought. But eventually, something crossed his mind. Fox: "Well actually.....there is one place we could stay."
