Disclaimer: Starfox is not owned by me, all rights and reservations go to Nintendo. This is just a fanfiction.
Quick note: This story does not fully follow the Star Fox cannon, it it mostly a retelling with a different perspective of what happened. This takes place after Starfox Adventures, so if you are wonder about why something happens in the story or there are some alterations with the characters that didn't make sense with the game, then that's why. Nevertheless, I hope you enjoy the story.
"Man, i'm exhausted." Fox thought to himself. "After that long adventure on Dinosaur Planet, I think I need a rest, and who would have guessed that Andross was alive this whole time, and right in front of me too." Fox thought to himself in embarrassment. Fox looked around him to see that his friend right beside him, congratulating Fox on his successful mission. "Peppy, Slippy, and R.O.B. were all here giving me there thanks for completing the mission, and who would have guessed that Falco would have showed up at the last minute?" Fox thought as he went up to Falco.
"Hey Falco listen." Falco turned around to Fox and looked at him not in envy, but in friendship. "Yes Fox, what is it?" Falco asked. Fox was about to ask Falco if he wanted to join the Star Fox team again until he was interrupted by a call from the General. "Oh, that must be General Pepper." Fox said as he picked up the call. A hologram of a dog in a General's outfit showed up on screen. "Congratulations Fox, you have successfully defeated Andross once again and as I promised, your reward is now being transferred over to the Star Fox bank account right now." General Pepper informed. "Thanks General." Fox thanked as the hologram disappears.
"You were saying?" Falco reminded Fox. "Oh yeah, sorry." Fox apologized as he rubbed the back of his head and turned to Falco. "I know you left for a while, but I was wondering if you would consider coming back to the Star Fox team?" Fox asked. Falco just laughed and smiled at Fox. "What, are you kidding, of course i'll join again, after all I do miss beating up bad guys together like we did in our fight with Andross a few hours ago." Falco said. Fox just looked at his friend with a huge grin and held out his right palm. "Welcome back to the team buddy." Fox said to his friend. "It's good to be back." Falco replied as they shook hands together. "Right now I better inform the General of your return." Fox said. "Slippy get the General online." Fox commanded. "Right on Fox." Slippy began to dial the General's code until he was interrupted by something. "Fox, it looks like we have a visitor." Slippy said to Fox.
"What, Who is it?" Fox asked. "That would be me." All of the sudden a door opened and a blue fox about Fox's height wearing nothing but a bra and a loincloth around her waist and carrying a long staff came inside the main headquarters. "K-Krystal?" Fox asked as everyone turned to look at the shaking fox. "You know this girl?" Slippy asked. "Yes, he is the one who saved my life." Krystal answered. Fox went up to Krystal shaking and feeling nervous. "What are you doing here, and how did you get here?" Fox asked. "Well you can thank my friend out there for taking me up to your ship." Krystal said as she pointed to the large Aerodactyl flying right beside the ship. "Well that's nice." Peppy said in amazement. "But what brings you here?" Peppy asked. Krystal rubbed her arm and began to speak. "I never did get to thank you for freeing me from that prison." Krystal said to Fox."
Fox began to blush bright red as R.O.B. came up behind him. "Temperature level rising, could this be love?" Everyone started to laugh as Fox felt small and helpless to the embarrassment that was overwhelming him. "Anyway, you're welcome Krystal." Fox said back quickly turning around to hide his face. "Wait Fox, there's more I want to tell you." Krystal shouted. Fox turned around and looked at Krystal. "Hey guys, I think we should leave these two alone, wouldn't you say?" Falco said as he winked at Slippy and Peppy. "Right, we'll be in our rooms if you need us Fox." Peppy said as they all left. Krystal just went up to Fox and looked at him in the eyes. "Fox, may I become a member of your team?" Krystal asked.
This came as a surprise to Fox, as he didn't know how to react. "Well uh, why do you want to join us?" Fox asked. Krystal went over to the window and gazed out at the Lylat System. "My home planet was destroyed a long time ago, and I have had nowhere else to go, but now that I am in debt to you for saving my life, I want to be of service to you." Krystal explained. Fox was touched by her reasoning and went over to the window beside her. "You haven't had any training with piloting or firearms, I have no idea if the General will except." "Then teach me then!" Krystal said interrupting Fox. "Oh, sorry I didn't mean to." Krystal apologized. "No it's fine, really." Fox said to Krystal. "Listen, i'll get in touch with the General and explain to him, if he accepts then you're an official member, however if he declines, then i'm afraid there is nothing I can do." Fox explained. "Oh thank you Fox!" Krystal shouted as she leapt towards Fox in happiness and hugged him. Krystal hugged Fox for a minute until she realized that she was probably being rude, and backed off. "Sorry, I didn't mean too." "No it's ok." Fox interrupted. Krystal looked up and saw the fox blushing red and rubbing the back of his head. Krystal could tell that Fox enjoyed her hug.
Fox dialed General Pepper's code and successfully reached him. "General Pepper here, hm, Fox, what is it?" General Pepper asked in a stern voice. "I apologize if you we're busy sir, but I needed your input on a new team member." Fox said to the General. "A new team member?" The General asked. "Very well than, what's the name and district this new recruit if from?" General Pepper asked. "Well that's the thing sir, she doesn't have a district." Fox explained to General Pepper. "What do you mean?" General Pepper asked. All of the sudden Krystal came into view and explained her background. "My name is Krystal, and i'm from the planet that no longer exists called Cerenia." General Pepper looked surprised at the girl and looked at Fox. "We can't accept a girl with no background, and on top of that, she has had no military training." General Pepper explained. "Well just give me some time sir, and I will train Krystal to be a fully operable pilot." Fox explained. General Pepper thought about if for a minute until he gave his answer. "Alright, here's what i'll do, I will give you one month to train this girl here, in the meantime I will do some research about this girls background, if you can have her fully trained by then, I will consider letting her join." General Pepper explained. "Thank you General, I appreciate it, and one more thing, Falco has also rejoined the Star Fox team." Fox explained. "Well just have him send in his papers, and he's back on the team. General pepper said to Fox. "Roger, thank you sir." The hologram cut off as Fox turned to Krystal.
"Well looks like we're spending the next month together in training." Fox said as he looked at Krystal who was filled with excitement. Fox knew that he would enjoy having Krystal's company during this next month of training. "I am truly grateful for your kindness Fox." Krystal thanked. Fox just looked into Krystal's eyes and gazed at there beauty. "She's really beautiful." Fox thought to himself. "So where do I stay?" Krystal asked. Fox had snapped out of his daze and realized that Krystal had nowhere to sleep, except for one place. "Well we don't have any spare rooms, but there is an extra bed in my room if you wanna sleep there?" Fox asked. "That's perfect!" Krystal exclaimed. "I want to be with you anyways." Fox blushed and started to shake again as he escorted Krystal to his room.
Once Fox got to his room, he pulled out the extra bed that was inside the wall and made it up for Krystal. "Thank you Fox, you are a truly kind man." Krystal thanked. "Aw, don't mention it." Fox replied. Krystal went up to Fox and hugged him tightly, but Fox didn't seem to mind at all, in fact, he thought it was quite nice. "I think it's time for bed now." Krystal said as she broke the hug. "Yeah you're right, we've got a long day of training tomorrow." Fox replied. As they both got settled into bed, Fox turned off the lights and laid down on his bed. "Goodnight Fox." Krystal said. "Goodnight Krystal." Fox replied as he slowly drifted asleep for his big day tomorrow.
