Finally after so God damn long, I can finally do the installment I've wanted for I don't know about a year, the wrath of Cortex installment. Compared to all the others, this one I feel is going to be very long. But I want to tackle this little bad boy before I branch off I decide where my series is going to lead next.

I decided to split the Prologue up into 2 parts; one reflecting the games introduction and the other one dealing with some of my OC's so Crash isn't going to appear for awhile.

As always if you like my story; that's amazeballs. If not that's cool too, I know not all will like this. But if you feel I should be doing something different. Politely, let me know in a review or drop me a PM. I will respond.

So without anymore delay, let's begin the long awaited fic.

One last thing, For part one of the Prologue I strongly recommend listening to the Prologue theme from Super Metroid

Crash Bandicoot and any related characters do not belong to me. They belong to I don't even know anymore. Any OC's that appear in this fic are indeed mine.

Here we go

Prologue Part 1

3 months earlier

Within the deep darkness of space, a large ominous looking space station was floating through the darkness.

The space belonged to the evil scientist named Dr. Neo Cortex. After the destruction of the Time Twister, Cortex had decided to take a look at genetic enhancing again. From his findings, he began to develop a genetically enhanced super weapon with enormous strength. The only problem it was still not ready; he needed to a power source that would enhance the project even more then it already was.

Cortex had spent a year trying to come up with a solution, but no matter what he would find, it was not enough.

Nobody knew of this project, except for N. Gin; and even he was given little information about this project.

One silent evening however, Uka Uka had called Cortex to the conference room.

Cortex sighed to himself as he made his way there.

He needed to come up with source for his weapon, then he could resume with world domination and taking Crash out of the equation. Then there was the issue with the lost minion, Amanda. She had fled years ago, and Cortex was determined to get her back and finish what he started on her. However, Cortex had come up with a solution for Amanda. He had genetically enhanced another human girl with the same properties as Amanda's. The new minion when she was ready would track the lost minion down and bring her back to him; so Cortex really wasn't worried about her.

It was Crash he truly wanted.

Finally he came to a stop in front of the doors to the conference room. Opening the doors, Cortex was greeted to: N. Gin, Dingodile, Tiny and Dr. N. Trophy. Uka Uka was floating above the table.

"What is this about Uka Uka?" Cortex demanded, coldly. "I have many things I need to get done."

"Your objectives can wait; we have matters to discuss." Uka Uka growled.

Cortex snarled before taking his seat.

Uka Uka floated to the center of the table; a murderous glare was deep within in his eyes.

"The last time I have checked, it has been almost a year since anyone has done anything. I feel as if my time has been wasted; AND I DO NOT LIKE MY TIME TO BE WASTED!" The mask bellowed.

"That's not our fault, Uka Uka. That bandicoot is the one to blame for any throwbacks to our plans." Cortex responded, coolly.

"That's nothing but inherent bullshit! Nothing can stand in the way of dark forces; and especially not a teenage bandicoot! CRASH MUST BE STOPPED!"

"But Uka Uka, Crash always finds a way to defeat us; perhaps he's just too powerful to defeat." N. Gin explained, morbidly.

"I don't want to hear it; you five better come up with something, or else!" The mask growled.

"What can we possibly come up with within a five minute time frame?" N. Trophy demanded.

"Nothing that's what." Cortex shot back.

"But Dr. Cortex, what about that secret weapon you've been working on since Crash last defeated you?" N. Gin asked.

"What secret weapon?" Dingodile asked.

Cortex shot N. Gin a look before he decided it maybe the time to finally reveal his weapon.

"Well, for the past year I have been working on a weapon with great strength. The only issue is, I need a power source to for the missing element." Cortex explained.

"Elements... The elementals!" Uka Uka cried.

"The elementals?" N. Gin asked.

"The Elementals are ancient masks like me that each dominate the four elements: Earth, Water, Fire, and Air. They were so dangerous that they had to be sealed away. But I can represent the fifth element, Spirit; to release them from there dormant grave. These elements perhaps can provide you the means to complete your weapon."

Cortex began to smile evilly.

"The elementals, that's perfect; with their power, I can finally bring my creation to life. We can control the weather and bring thousands of cities to a standstill. The world will finally be in my grasp!"

"And we can finally take that bandicoot out of the equation for good." Uka Uka grinned.

Cortex rose from his chair, his smile wide across his face.

"GET READY TO FACE MY WRATH, CRASH BANDICOOT!"

The scientist threw his head back as his wicked laughter echoed along the dark halls.

That's it for Prologue Part 1. Part will continue the Prologue and then we can start the main story. I have still have my poll going on so go on and check it out on my Prologue page. Until Read Review PM. DEUCES!
