A/N: Here ya go my second story, as I said it was going to be a crossover between star fox and assassin's creed and I assure that this will be very good too, though the rating will have to be M because of violence but nothing more, don't expect me to put a lemon in here, the last thing I'll say is that I expect everyone find's this entertaining and that you like it.
Disclaimers: I don't own Star Fox or any of its characters they are owned by Nintendo and I don't own Assassin's Creed either, it is owned by Ubisoft Montreal.
For thousands of years in the history of the planet Lylat a war unknown to the eyes of the world has taken place, this war is between the templars an organization with the goal of world domination and the Assassins the defenders of free will and the animals, on the year 2011 of the Lylatian calendar the templars have almost reached this goal by taking control of the other continents through the use of fake diplomacy and the assassins have practically vanished most of them killed.
But this war is far from over and now a young assassin has been assigned with the search of the only son of one of the greatest assassin's that has ever existed with the hope that he will be able to defeat the Grand Master of the Templar Order Andross, the name of this youngling was Fox McCloud…
"Here you go, hope you enjoy drinks" Fox said as he handed the drinks to the clients, the vulpine was a barman in one of the most famous restaurants in the downtown of Corneria City. After handing the drinks he left for the staff area only and wait for his next delivery, on the meantime he sat on one of the chairs and let out a heavy sigh, then a young lynx came and sat beside him.
"Hey Foxie, having a rough day fella?" he asked.
"You have no idea Tim" he replied.
"Well it might change after I tell you this" Tim teased, Fox's ears perked his curiosity rising.
"I'm listening"
"See that hooded girl in that table over there?" Tim pointed to a table directly across from them in which was sitting a hooded female that looked like she was a fennec because her ears popped out a little from the front of her hood (she had her ears lowered so the hood could fit in, just to let you know that's what all the assassins with ears on their heads do), her way of dressing was also weird since it was completely white with a few red straps.
"Yeah, what about her?" the vulpine asked.
"She asked me to call you"
"Then I guess I better get going" Fox said with a chuckle.
"Good luck dude" was the last Tim said before Fox left, on his way Fox started feeling very uncomfortable for the way the fennec was dressed but also he felt as if someone was looking at him. He ignored that and sat across from the fennec.
"Can I help you with anything miss?" he asked her.
"Indeed Fox McCloud I've been looking for you" the vulpine's eyes widened.
"How do you know my name?"
"I know a lot about you Mr. McCloud"
"Could you at least tell me your name miss?" the fennec gave thought of it for a second but then concluded that it was the best if the mission was to succeed.
"Fara; Fara Phoenix"
"And what do you wish of me Fara?" she then drew a plaque with the shape of the assassin's symbol but with a fox's tail in each side and wings and a crown with very large wings on the bottom of the plaque.
"McCloud do you recognize this plaque?" Fara asked.
"N-No… I-I-I've never seen it in my life" he lied.
"You're lying Fox you know what this plaque is!" she rose her voice a bit.
"All right, all right, that's my family's symbol"
"What else?"
"Nothing else…" he lied again, Fara rose from her seat and grabbed Fox by the collar.
"Stop lying Fox McCloud! Now let's make this the easy way and simply answer my questions with the truth" she then let him go.
"I can tell you nothing more because it's nothing" Fara then started to think a bit 'He respects the Creed after all, his father taught him well'.
"Fox I know what you are doing, and don't worry you can tell me I'm an assassin" and she took off the glove in her left paw to show him the tattoo on her left ring finger.
"F-Fine, that's the assassin shield of my family, actually it belonged to my…" and his eyes widened, Fara nodded.
"Yes that's right…" she pointed at the plaque "…That's your father's plaque, we recovered it from his body after he was found in Venom, along with this" and she took out a red scarf a bit messed up.
"So he did die…" Fox's eyes drifted away.
"And now I've come to bring you to the headquarters"
"But I… I never wanted that life that's why I ran from home after my mother passed away" (in this story Vixy passed away many years after Fox was born).
"I understand but you don't have much of a say in the matter because I was ordered that if you didn't want to come I had to kill you so that the templars couldn't find you" the vulpine was perplexed.
"Fine I guess I have no more options" this made Fara smile.
"Good then come with Fox" and they both left the table. Fox took the plaque and the scarf with him.
"Wait I must report that I'm leaving" and Fox went to talk with Tim.
"Hey Fox, how'd it go?" the lynx asked.
"Very well Tim, actually she asked me to go over to her place so I need you to cover me, can you do it?" the lynx grinned.
"Yeah sure buddy, I hope you spend a good night" Fox then left with Fara but not only with her.
"Fara three animals are following us" he informed her. She slightly turned around and scowled.
"Damn it, those are Templars, act normally Fox we must not act in front of everyone" the street was very crowded. They started to lose the Templars, but these not willing to give up used their next plan and suddenly the restaurant exploded entirely and everyone started to run screaming.
"Shit! Fox Run!" Fara yelled and both started running as fast as they could the Templars robbed a car and started following them.
"This is not good! I will have to kill them" and so she charged her hidden gun and fired two shots to the driver of the car causing it to crash but just when they were starting to relax two more vehicles showed up.
"There's no way out of this Fara!" Fox yelled worried, the fennec examined the area and notice a building with some loose bricks and some balconies that could be easily climbed.
"That way Fox!" and she sprinted towards the buildings she was beginning her climbing when looked back and saw Fox standing there.
"What the hell are you waiting for? Climb the wall!"
"I can't I've never done free running!" but then he saw something that looked like the ghost of a fox, and it started climbing the building, Fox lost all control of his body and simply repeated the actions of the ghost climbing even faster than Fara. She was very surprised when she got to the top and saw him there.
"Very nice Fox" she congratulated him.
"Don't ask me how I did it" was all he said. Then came silence until Fox broke it.
"So that's it? They won't follow us here?"
"No, free running can be only performed by Assassins" but Fara spoke too soon because a helicopter appeared from nowhere and it seemed ready to fire.
"Oh c'mon can't you just give up" she complained and started to run again closely followed by Fox, they jumped from one building to the other trying to lose the helicopter but they couldn't and there were no places to hide in any of the buildings.
Both were starting to feel tired and they knew this couldn't go on for much longer, eventually they reached the river but had to stop because there were no more buildings close enough to jump to them.
"Dead end, damn it I can't believe it will end like this!" Fara yelled filled with desperation, Fox was examining the area to see if he found something but nothing, there was no way out of there, they both were surely going to die, and in the last second the ghost appeared again and in his mind told Fox 'This way Fox' and the ghost jumped off the edge of the building towards the river, so Fox turned to Fara.
"Fara this way" he grabbed her paw and began running to the edge of the building just like the ghost did, he then let go of her and with all his strength he jumped opening his arms like a bird and performed, without him noticing, his first leap of faith, Fara did the same as well, luckily there was a bridge nearby so they swam without being noticed and hid below it.
Eventually the helicopter and all the templars left.
"Fox, how did you do 'that'?" Fara asked very curious and mesmerized at the moment.
"I just… followed my instincts" then silence came again, and Fox broke it again.
"So what do we do now Fara?"
"Well for some convenient reason we landed next to the secret entrance of the headquarters" they both swam to the closest corner of the bridge and she drew her hidden blade and put in a hole on the wall next to them causing a door to slid open, they went through and arrived in a metallic room with a door in front of them.
"Identification please" a voice asked them.
"Fara Phoenix, rank six assassin and this is Fox McCloud objective of my mission"
"Very well, show your finger mark to the detector" and Fara to the screen next to the door and showed her finger mark.
"Identification confirmed, welcome back Fara"
"Yeah, yeah whatever" was the answer of Fara she then took off the hood and her ears immediately rose to the air; and so they both went inside the headquarters, the walls and floors were metallic painted of white and many doors were in this each of them with a sign. Also many animals were in there, some of them surprised to see Fox and others who greeted or saluted Fara. Fox and Fara were walking towards the main elevator at the bottom of the area, on the way she told Fox the function of each room they passed.
On their way they stopped because a tall black furred vulpine grabbed Fara by the waist.
"Hey there" he whispered in her ear.
"Shake, I didn't expect to see you here" she told him and then she turned around and started kissing him something that soon turned into a make out session, Fox started to feel awkward and coughed remembering Fara of his presence. They broke apart both embarrassed.
"Fox, this is Shake an assassin of rank 8 and my boyfriend; Shake this is Fox McCloud I guess you know the rest"
"So you are the son of James McCloud, I heard so much about him, they said he was amazing but kind of an asshole" Shake extended his paw and Fox surprisingly shook it.
"I think he was an asshole as well so no harm done" and both chuckled.
"Hey now that I remember the Mentor told me that you should introduce to Master Peppy before anything else" Shake told Fara.
"Then let's go" and the trio went towards the elevator and went up two floors, they came out and saw an area that looked like a sanctuary with little chapels for each of the religions and in the middle there was a banner with the assassin symbol, sitting there was an old hare meditating.
"Master Peppy, sorry to interrupt you but we brought Fox McCloud" Shake told him. The hare turned around and dismissed Shake and Fara, on their way out Fox was able to hear Shake say something about a special "welcome party" for Fara, the thought of what that actually meant disgusted him.
"Fox… this is unbelievable… you look exactly like your father" this brought Fox out of his trance.
"Yeah well that's what most of the people said" he answered.
"But your eyes, those are the eyes of your mother" this mesmerized him, no one ever mentioned his mother when describing him.
"Now come and hug your godfather" and Peppy opened his arms, but Fox simply stood there he couldn't believe it godfather? What did he mean by that; any way since the vulpine wasn't giving any signs of life the hare proceeded, after a while Fox reacted and returned the hug.
"What did you mean by godfather?" Fox asked as they separated.
"Didn't you know? Your parents asked me to be your godfather" Peppy answered.
"No, I didn't know"
"Well then I will tell you everything on our way to the Mentor's office, he really wanted to meet you, and tomorrow we will start your three years training"
"Three years?" Fox practically yelled.
"Yes that's what it takes for you to become a rank 2 assassin and be accepted inside the order" Peppy explained, and they kept walking to meet the Mentor and with that begin the three years training, Fox was unsure of the future but he was sure these were going to be three rough years…
