Star Fox: Age of Devastation

An alarm sounded across the P.A. system of the Great Fox. Peppy checked after the second ring. Casually, Peppy got onto the P.A. to contact the rest of Star Fox, "General Pepper is calling, everyone report to the bridge." After getting off the P.A., he leaned back in his chair, waiting for the crew, and noticed fiery streaks in the far distance outside the window. He stared at them for a bit, mesmerized and recalling old childhood memories, before snapping his attention back to the bridge as a hologram of the General appeared. He saluted the assembled Star Fox crew, among them were new members, Miyu, Fay, and Saru. Fox McCloud returned the salute along with his team, "What's the situation, General?" General Pepper began the briefing, "A rather unusual one, Fox. Recently, archaeologists were visiting Sauria following a recently detected anomaly. With permission from the natives, they dug up the ground around the anomaly and have located what they only described as powerful technology unlike any seen before. They fear that if it were to fall into the wrong hands, it would cause untold amounts of destruction. That is where you come in. You're the best we could ask for, and we ask that you accompany the archaeologists back to Corneria. In turn, we'll pay you a gracious amount for doing so."
Fox nodded and gave the General the thumbs-up, "You can count on us, General!" General Pepper nodded and saluted them again before ending the transmission. Falco scoffed, "What, we running escort missions for payment now?" Fox glanced at him, "If you don't like it, Falco, you're welcome to sit it out, I'm sure Katt could use the company." Falco's eyes widened at the mention, "Ah, what the hell, I'll do anything for some cash." Fox gave the slightest sneer, prompting Krystal to roll her eyes with a grin, 'Men.' Fox turned to Peppy, who announced, "Prepare for Hyperspace jump."
As the massive starship disappeared in a brilliant explosion of light, a lone asteroid drifted by. Atop the asteroid, a single being observed the teleportation with interest. The being, a mechanoid of an unknown, yet familiar design, glanced back to one of the planets present within this star system. The mechanoid tapped the side of its head, where an ear would be present, and in a masculine voice, spoke, "I think I've found a lead. I'll tell you more about it once I return." A voice on the other end replied back. He then spoke again, "Space-Bridge... please..." A swirling tear of spacetime appeared in front of the mechanoid. He leaped off the asteroid, then began contorting and moving as various pieces externally and internally disconnected, reconnected, rotated, folded, unfolded, until his new form resembled that of a local aerodynamic vehicle, the Arwing. The new form jetted into the swirling light, which vanished shortly afterward.
On the other side of the warp, the Arwing flew out, then began hovering as around him, other mechanoids, three males and two females, turned toward him. The hovering Arwing mechanoid shapeshifted back into his humanoid form to give his report, "I was spying in this star system's asteroid belt, and I may have found a lead on his location. According to a transmission I had intercepted, archaeologists on a planet named Sauria have located some sort of powerful technology that they'd never seen before. They hired their elite to guard it, and I have reason to suspect that they may have found ancient Cybertronian technology." One of the mechanoids, a tall and slim robot clad in green armor with a chain-gun mounted on his shoulder, addressed the triple-changer. "Starwing, do you know of the location of Sauria within this star system?" Starwing shook his head, "The vessel I was tracking teleported before I could lock onto it, Hound."
Author's Notes
- I've decided to rewrite this story from the previous version due to personal feelings that the plot was getting convoluted and out of control. This includes the exclusion of a number of OCs that I couldn't quite keep track of, as well as the removal of certain subplots as part of the Continuity Trimming. Starwing will remain as an OC character for now, but the remaining characters will be filled in with Canon and Pseudocanon Characters (Such as Nightbird and characters from the cancelled TFUniverse MOTA game). Feedback is appreciated!
