"Great Fox to recon, do you read me?" a voice said over the communications link.
"Loud and clear Slippy, en route to rendezvous point with the bounty hunter." Said Agent Fox McCloud, leader of the Federation sanctioned team Starfox. He was to meet a renowned bounty hunter with information on a group of major terrorist leaders. Needless to say, it was an important mission. Failure was not an option.
He walked along forest-like outskirts of a highly populated city, close to 11:30 PM nearing a large boulder. He sniffed the air, and found the scent he'd been looking for. He took out a frequency emitter and turned it to a certain frequency.
"AAHHH!" said a female voice. The frequency hurt her head and short-circuited her cloaking device. "What the hell is your problem?!"
"Trying to ambush me Miss Aran?" he said as the woman's cloaking device finally shut down, revealing a blonde woman in a tight blue jumpsuit with a pink symbol on the back.
"My name is Samus!" she said in an irritated tone. "And where the hell do you get off with a stunt like that?! Do you know how much that cloaking device cost?"
"You shouldn't have tried to sneak up on me!"
"Pff! You feds are all the same. Protocol this, rules that, when was the last time you let your gut lead you have?"
"The protocol is what keeps people safe, Samus. Speaking of, what information do you have on the villains?"
"No way! If you want to stop them, then make some room because I'm coming with!"
"No. With your disregard for the law and peoples safety, it would be a catastrophe waiting to happen." Fox said in an emotionless voice.
"Oh and simply following orders gets it done? What if someone had a gun to your head and protocol told you to pull the trigger, would you do it?"
"Under the circumstances, I guess I would wait and-"
"WRONG!! If you waited, odds are the evil prick with the gun won't, and you'd be dead." Samus said in an as-a-matter-of-fact tone.
Now fox was getting annoyed. "You're not coming with. And that's final. And don't try to sneak on or anything like that or I'll be forced to put you into custody."
"You don't have the guts, fur-face!"
"Try me." The fur-faced agent said overconfidently.
One hour later…"Nice digs fur-face." Samus said rubbing in the fact that she beat Fox in a fight, forcing the team to let her join along in the mission.
"Please stop calling me that." He said as he face palmed him.
Ignoring that comment, she continued to snoop around her assigned room.
"We have breakfast at 8'oclock sharp, so you should get some sleep."
"I will when I am damn ready!" she snapped with a glare. Fox met her look with confusion. "Just messin' with you fur-face. Night."
