Note: This story
will introduce a squadron of fighters that preceded the Star Fox
team, known as the Star Rebels. Its members
will consist mostly of
characters I made up myself, such as Greneck Mist (a fox), Cynthia
Koraway (a cat), Derick Cloud (another fox) SLOB64 (a clumsy robot
parody of ROB64), Alexia Mist (Greneck's sister) and Lenny the Lynx
(Miyu's brother).
This story also takes place way before
Andross was a threat to the Lylat System. Also, Fox and Wolf are ten
year old kids and haven't developed
their rivalry yet.
Chapter 1: Fox's question to Wolf
One
pleasant evening on 8789 Furry Street, Fox was playing in his
backyard. He was climbing trees, chasing his tail, and doing the
typical fox cub things. After sprinting, leaping, and hopping around
like mad, he decided to lay down in the grass and watch the clouds
roll by. He always loved watching the skies, because his lifelong
ambition was to become a pilot someday, just like his dad, James. He
also liked to drift into different states of conciousness and
daydream. Just as he was about to start daydreaming about
flying
through the air in an Arwing, he was rudely interrupted by being
dowsed with H20.
"THIS IS AWESOME! Mondo, babeh! Flying
through the sky...soaring...and...OH NO! We're in a storm! DAD! What
are we gonna do?" asked Fox.
"The only storm you're
having is a mental one, doofus!" said a familiar voice. Fox
looked up at the perpetrator, who was holding
a bucket of water.
It was his playmate, Wolf O' Donnel. Wolf always played mean tricks
on Fox.
"Ah, Wolf, whaddja have ta do that for?"
asked Fox
"Wolf's honor!" replied Wolf O'
Donnel.
"What's wolf's honor?" asked Fox.
"It has to do with being a wolf, duh! Maybe you should
start LEARNING some things if you want to be such a success like your
pop, Fox!" said Wolf.
"Like..what kinds of
things?" asked Fox. Wolf rolled his eyes.
"Well,
you know, things like, what makes Arwings work, what button do you
have to mash on the controller to do a barrel roll, when you have to
hit the A button, where to find fuel cells on foreign planets, the
essential knowledge of life, that kind of thing! Also, other things,
like, well, for instance, do you know where babies come from?"
asked Wolf.
"Fortuna, right? Cuz that's where good
fortune comes from?" asked Fox.
"Your mom must have
told you that!" snarled Wolf.
"Well, she told me
she'd let me know more of the intimate details when I get older!"
said Fox.
"Golly, you sure are gullible! Aww, anyway,
I'm sorry I was rough on ya! I'd make it up with a friendly one-on
one wrestling match, pally wally, but as it stands, I've got a date
with the moon! And no, that doesn't mean I'm taking the moon out on a
date!" exclaimed Wolf. Fox wasn't listening to Wolf, he was
assembling a tiny model of an Arwing, that his father gave him for
his birthday.
"If you don't mind, Wolf, I'm busy
learning some new things!" said Fox, who was frustrated at his
playmate. Wolf turned his head, and glanced back at Fox. He paused,
for a moment, staring at Fox. The truth was, even though Fox was a
bit naive, he was trying very hard to be the best he could be, and
Wolf, embarresingly enough, had actually been held back in school
once.
"Hey, FOX!" yelled out Wolf. No answer. He
yelled harder, "FOX!". Fox came running up to Wolf.
"What is it?" asked Fox. Fox could tell by the expression
on Wolf's face, that he was sad. A tiny tear trickled down his cheek.
He began to speak softly.
"Fox, I'm sorry. The truth is,
my education is sub-par, to say the least, not to mention, you're so
much better at math and flight
simulators than I am it isn't
funny. At the pace I'm going, I could probably improve and grow up to
be a wicked pilot, but you have
one thing that I don't think I
have much of...a good heart!" explained Wolf.
"What
makes you say that?" asked Fox.
"I would gladly do
anything for some quick cash! I mean, anything! You, on the other
hand, you want to someday serve a greater cause, I can just see it in
you. You want to help a greater cause!" said Wolf.
"Isn't this conversation a little deep for kids our age, and for
a fanfic about green cheese and the people who inhabit it?"
asked Fox.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY? You didn't just break the
fourth wall did you?" asked Wolf.
"NO! I'd never do
that Wolf! EVER!" said Fox.
"Good! Anyway Fox, what
was that important question you wanted to ask me a few nights ago?"
asked Wolf.
"Oh, THAT, well, err...I don't wanna talk
about it! It's too weird!" said Fox. Wolf looked puzzled. A sour
look was painted on his face.
"Well, it's about that
thing I see you do at night!" said Fox.
"What...do
you mean?" asked Wolf.
"You...you...howl...at the
moon!" said Fox.
"OH, so you've noticed, well,
that's part of being a wolf! See, we wolves have a bone to pick with
the people of
Corneria's moon! Let me tell you a tall tale, err, a
little story, shall I?" said Wolf.
