Time: 14:43 Great Fox Bridge:
Fox was going to get a quick bite from the kitchen when suddenly all the lights in the Great Fox oddly turned off, then he heard a scream much like Krystal's, quickly, he dashed away to her room. When Fox arrived at Krystal's room he found her in a panicked state in a corner of her room, where he asked," Krys, are you Ok," as he, by instinct began to comfort her, " what happened?" "I'm fine, the lights, they j-just went out with no warning at all," Krystal sobbed softly, "I was scared." "Why is he doing this for me," she thought, "he should be worried about the lights instead of me." "Fox, you really shouldn't worry about me." "Yes but I heard you scream and it worried me," Fox stated firmly, "besides I haven't checked on you in a while, you should come up to the bridge where there should be some light." "Ok, I guess I should get out of this stuffy room for a while," Krystal said as she began walking. "Rob," he said as he spoke into the com for the ship, "runs some diagnostics on the ships lighting systems please." "As you wish," Rob said in his cold metallic voice. Just as Krystal got to the door, she was swept off her feet by none other than Fox, "What are you doing," she questioned lightly, not really wanting to leave his arms, he soon replied with, "It can be dangerous walking alone in the dark here, so I thought I'd carry you there." "Well thank you, but, you really don't have to do this." "Oh, but I insist," he stated as they were walking.
As the two reached the bridge, Fox saw that Falco, Slippy, and Peppy had already arrived there as well. "Hey Foxy, I know it's great and all but now's not the time to be pickin' up the ladies," Falco stated in his usual tone. Fox quickly replied, "Shut up Falco." "Yeah, yeah I hear ya, so what's with these lights," Falco asked quizzically. "I don't know, but I asked Rob to run some diagnostics, and speaking of….. Rob!" "Yes Fox," Rob replied. "Did you run those diagnostics," Fox asked. "Yes and the results were inconclusive of the cause." "Damn it," Fox replied slightly angered, "Slippy, is there any way you could try to fix this." "Yes I could but it might take some time though, Slippy stated, unsure of how Fox would react. "Alright, Rob, are the emergency lights still online," "Yes Fox, I will turn them on but they will only light certain areas." "Ok, I just need any lights you can get online."
Time 20:00 Great Fox Engine Room
Slippy was taken aback by the extensive damage that was found when he removed the panel covering the power distributor, although it was to be expected, he didn't think it would be this bad. "Jeez," he thought, "I don't think Fox is going to like this." "Jeez laweez! What is THAT," Falco squawked as he walked in. "It's, or was the power distributor," Slippy stated as he pointed a wrench at the severely mangled equipment, "Falco, could you get Fox down here, I think he's going to want to see this." "Yeah, yeah I hear ya frog-boy," Falco teased. Falco being his usual self didn't feel like navigating across the entire ship, so he used the intercom, "Fox, you are needed in the engine room now." Fox in fact had been on his way to the engine room before he had even been called, when he arrived sooner than expected he had nearly made Falco jump out of his pants. "Jumpy today aren't we Falco," Fox said teasing him. Falco being in his usual mood flipped Fox off who gave a quick punch in the shoulder. "So anyway," Slippy said, trying to split the two apart, "Fox, you need to see this." Fox, actually expecting better than what was, replied,"Ok, wha- HOLY BUTTERMILK BISCUITS ON FIRE!" "Yeah Fox, it's worse than it looks," Slippy replied doubtfully. "How are we going to get a new one, we are days away from Corneria or anywhere else," Fox returned, slightly aggravated." Well we could try fitting a new one in your arwing since it has a higher safe speed and it's in better shape than the Great Fox right now," Slippy replied.
