Chapter One
She was running so fast it felt like a knife everytime a branch slapped against her face, or like somebody was clawing away at her bare feet as she ran across a bundle of sticks and thorns, but she din't slow down, no, if anything she ran faster. She HAD to get away. She made it to a clearing with strange markings, and she was struck by and idea. She picked up a sharp rock and cut her wrist with it, spreading the blood around on the ground, and then tore out some of her fur and spread that over the blood, then she drew a Triangle inside a circle, the markings of a nearby, more viscious, tribe She took a deep breath nad then let out and ear-peircing scream,she then ran and hid in the woods. A black wolf came running out with a long sword in his hands. He would be otherwise invisible in the pitch black of night, but she had good vision and it was easy to see his peircing Emerald eyes. Then he saw the bloddy mess before him he fell down on his knees in front of it as his sword fell from his hand, which was held just above the blood, then he saw the fur ,he then carefully grabbed some held it with both paws to his chest, raised his head and let out a long howling ' NOOOOOOOOOO!". it was the most mornful sound she had ever heard. he bowed his head and what appeared to be, started to cry in long mournful sobs 'no...I never... even knew her name' he sobbed and then she ran towards someplace where she could find a ship.
"Krystal...Krystal...KRYSTAL!!!" she bolted upright in bed, cold sweat hanging off her face, breathing rapidly.
"Krystal? are you okay? I heard some yelling and came in to check it out" said and obviously worried Fox
She nodded " I will be,,just some nightmares" she tried to calm her breath
" Are you sure? you've been having a lot of those lately" he said, Worry still etched into his face
she nodded again "just something that happened a long time ago, and is best left forgotten" she said with closed eyes
" what happened?" he asked her
She sighed, got up, and started walking towards the window. she looked outinto space for a minute with her arms crossed before looking at the clock "It's two in the morning, Fox, why don't you go get some sleep?" she said with a weak grin
He got up and was about to leave when he said " ya know, you can tell me anything"
"..I know. goodnight Fox" she said softly before turning back towards the window in time to see a passing star that lighted her face as a tear fell from her closed eyes
He nodded and left, closing the door behind him. when he got outside, he saw Falco with his back to the wall, head tilted back, arms dangling off his sides, and he was snoring. Slippy was laying sprawled out on the floor asleep and Peppy just said " We all heard some commotion and came to check it out when I saw you go in, so I told them to wait out here with me, and as you can see, they fell asleep." he said tiredly " so, since you're not coming out with guns blazin' i'm going to assume that everythings fine" he finished with a yawn "so, goodnight" he started to walk off
" Wait!" Fox said "what do we do about these two?" he asked gesturing towards Falco and Slippy
"Oh, I think that they can spend one night there, don't ya think?" he finished with a wink and walked off to his room.
Fox chuckled and headed for his own room, Krystals words still swirling around in his head.
