Disclaimer: I don't own Starfox or any of its characters, they are all owned by Nintendo.
A/N: Well let me first say, I'm sorry if this sounds like any other story in this section, but I didn't want to check over a thousand stories, literally, to see if anyone has done this before. I know, as well as anybody, Nintendo owns Starfox and its characters, as the disclaimer mentions, but I do own Panther's two cousins, Tiger and Amy, and Prof. Jeremiah Bangoon. They are, as far as I know, aren't actual characters in the game, Panther has no reference of any cousins or anyone by the professor's name.
Note: Oh before I forget, I've played the game, so I know in a few of them Fox actually, sort of, explained to Krystal why he kicked her off the team in the first place. Well, I think it never was too in-depth enough to be seen it clearly on both sides' views. I'll have a few things that are close to some, actual, endings of the game, but not all. So if haven't played it yourself, a little warning this might have spoilers, it depends if it stays correctly as I have planned.

A Snake in the Grass
Location: In the science lab of a Cornerian battle cruiser
Time: 13:25
Set: Two days since the defeat of the Anglers on Venom by Team Starfox
"So, StarFox once again managed to stop the destruction of the Lylat System. Well good for them." came a mysterious voice as the camera zoom past many beakers and chemicals. "Well, Andross may be dead, but his spirit lives on, in his work." the voice continues, as the camera comes to view on a baboon at work with a wrench in one hand. "Professor, we'll be coming to the battlefield in a few minutes, I think it would be wise to hide that device of yours for now." a male soldier with a hard mask on his face, said as he came into the lab, "Perhaps, my apprentice, but the time nears when we will bring back Andross's former glory, and rid ourselves of StarFox and Corneria for what they did to my master." the professor said, with a nod the soldier left the lab, and prepared for the coming battle. "Its already been a few years since Andross's death on Sauria, and my grief still continues, but soon he'll be avenged for the wrong that has been done against him." the professor said to himself as he continued his work. While the professor continued his work, another soldier, also with a hard face mask on, but this time a female, said, "Professor I managed to obtain those cell samples you had asked me to fetch.", "Good, good, give them here." the professor said as he took the small, sealed Petridis, "That'll be all. Go.", and she left to join the many other officers.
As the professor continued his work he over heard that the Great Fox has been seen on the battle field already hot in battle with the enemy spacecraft, as well as part of the Cornerian military. With a thought in his head he, pitied his doomed brethren, who use to fight along side him when Andross was still alive. "My poor, poor friends. You should've listened to me. You should've joined me in this deceiver when Andross was destroyed, instead of continuing the struggle in plain view of the Cornerian army." he said with his head was nodding from side to side with a wide smile on his face, "But you didn't, now you'll all die and join Andross in eternal slumber. Looks like that leaves me, Professor Jeremiah Bangoon, to finish his work, his work to destroy..." he got out quietly, before yet another soldier, except of a much higher rank than his lackeys that work for him, interrupted and said, "Professor, we need those stats now, the fight is now within view and we're ready to cover StarFox and the rest of the military.", "Yes, yes. Here, be careful it took too long to get those numbers right." as he handed a piece of paper to the soldier, who nodded and bid him farewell as he ran back to the bridge. "I should prepare. The battle is near and I must continue this trickery, if my plan is to work. Oh well, it should be fun to shoot down those out-of-date ships they use as an appetizer before the real fun begins." the professor said as he hid his secret work in a compartment and walked off to one of the ship's various gun turrets near the bridge.

A/N: Yes, I know it was pretty short, but I have to get some other business done before the end of the month, besides it was suppose to be just him talking, a lot. I hope you like this as an intro, I'll try to work on the second chapter later, for now I'll see ya later.
