I do not own Starfox nor the charaters that come with the story. I do how ever own the charater Takuya. I hope everyone enjoys it.
Oh yes one last thing. I would like to say thank you to ZeroFox for helping me in writing the story.
On a blue planet named Earth, a young woman was doing her job. Her name was Takuya and after two years of being away from earth she enjoyed the smell of horse manure again. What the heck she enjoyed just being back on a planet and not in space. Never again would she want to do that again, to be summoned back into the USA's new space program and sent into active duty. But she sighed, knowing full well her wish will never come true again. That one day her past will catch up to her.
Two years ago, while still in college, Takuya was forced to go into the military space program. Besides the routine physical and mental tests, she was taught how to fly one a high-tech space fighter as part of her training. Takuya didn't care what they were called or what they could do. She didn't want this; she didn't want a job in the army. All she wanted was to go to college and do her dreams, but as it so happens fate plays a cruel hand. While on a training expiration with her 'crew' the guys got into an argument. Because of that argument, they got themselves lost somewhere in space. Takuya wanted to hit them over the head but before she could they realized they where no longer in the Milky Way. Takura and the crew were now in the Lylat System. How they arrived to this new galaxy, they had no idea. However Takuya knew that they were going to be in some real danger soon.
Takuya stopped thinking about her past again and just consisted on doing her job. She wished she had her I-pod with her. Music would be good right about now, but she forgot to bring it before heading to work. Takuya then took the manure-filled wheelbarrow out of the stables to dump it in a special bin nearby on some planks. Out of the blue, the young woman heard a familiar voice call her name from behind her. "You could have gotten a better job then this Takuya," chuckled the voice, surprising Takuya. She didn't know what to think or do at the moment, freezing on the spot. Just then the planks where Takuya was standing suddenly gave out from under her again. She then fell; landing hard on her bottom as the wheelbarrow next to her tipped over. "OH NO!" cried Takuya as the manure flew out of the wheelbarrow and landed right on top of her. Takuya sat there, covered in manure as she mentally cursed to herself. "Damn it, this was the 2nd time this week this happened," she thought to herself.
Just the Takuya saw a feathery hand stick out in front of her, looking up to see a familiar figure. "Gah, Falco!" cried Takuya in shock. "Heh, nice to see you too Takuya," replied Falco holding his hand up; "Here, let me help you up." Takuya grabbed the blue bird's hand, feeling herself get pulled up off the ground. Just then Falco got wind of the stench of the manure on Takuya, covering his beak with his good hand. "Ugh…you smell like shit," he said out loud. Takuya glared at him with her blue eyes, wiping the manures off his face. "Asshole, I'm still here," she thought to herself. Takuya never really enjoyed Falco's presence. For one the guy was a jerk 99.9 percent of the time when he was with her. Second, whenever Falco dropped by Takuya knew that there was going to be trouble. And third, Takuya could not get over the fact that Falco was a giant bird taller than her.
"What are you doing here?" she asked rather rudely, wiping most of the manure off his body. "Hey Takuya, you need a shower badly," commented Falco. "Shut the hell up Falco!" snapped Takuya, literally panting hard to control her anger. Falco sighed to himself, muttering something under his breath. He couldn't blame her for how pissed she was seeing him. It was only natural because he did tease Takuya when she was in the military space program and he ducted out on her when she needed him the most. Takuya was about to say something else, but saw a hand get stuck out in her face to pause her.
"Before you say anything, I have two reasons in visiting you," began the blue bird; "One, I came to talk to you about something. And two...to talk some since into you! I mean look at yourself!" His tone changed to a more shocked tone to see Takuya the way she was. The young woman, on the other hand, didn't want to hear any of it. "What ever you're selling I don't want it," she replied; "I'm fine the way I am now." "Umm fine?" asked Falco, raising an eyebrow in confusion; "You're mucking out...stalls for..." "I'm taking care of horses and it's not for a living" interrupted Takuya and continued, "I'm just working here till I'm done with college."
Takuya then picked up the wheelbarrow of the ground and proceeded to clean up the mess. "Right...ok so you're cleaning out stalls and not really getting anywhere in life," commented Falco in a sarcastic tone. He then looked over to Takuya as a serious look formed on his face. "Takuya, why don't you come back with us," he began, "I promise it'll be different this time around." "NO!" snapped Takuya, walking away with the wheelbarrow; "I'm not going back into the military with you!" "Come on Takuya, you were a tactical genius, excellent in hand-to-hand combat, and you were great at flying the Arwings," stated Falco, following the young woman; "You even made Fox sweat a few times during your practice dogfights with him." "I said NO!" screamed Takuya. In a quick flash, she quickly grabbed a pitchfork lying on the ground, twirling it around before aiming the sharpen tips against the bird's beak. "Falco, you have three seconds to improve my attitude or to get the hell off this farm now!" she exclaimed in a pissed off tone. Flaco took a step back away from the pointy edges of the pitchfork, sweat-dropping immensely. "I guess Takuya isn't in the best of moods to talk with now," he thought, "must be one of her days or something. I don't get these humans sometimes; they act so weird and so unpredictable." Falco took a deep breathe before looking back at Takuya, who put down the pitchfork and started to walk away with the wheelbarrow. "Takuya, come on just give it a second chance alright?" begged Falco, "I'm sure it'll be different this time." "Don't give me that," replied Takuya, "I'm not joining in the star fleet or what ever the USA calls it. So get lost already."
Flaco blinked in confusion, seeing how Takuya got when he was talking with her. He understood Takuya was hot headed and stubborn at times like anybody else. But right now he was becoming angrier with her stubbornness as he gave her a harsh glare. "Ok listen up Takuya!" he barked, causing the young woman to freeze, "Whether you're in it or not we need still need your help. I know you're resentful at me for leaving you guy at a time you needed a friend but I had my own personal reasons." Takuya turned around, pitchfork in hand ready to strike but saw a red dot on her chest. The young woman then saw Falco, holding his blaster out as his right index finger was on the trigger. "I tried to be nice with you but it seems I have to use force," stated the bird in a cold, harsh tone; "Now you can come with me peacefully or I can drag you out of here screaming you're head off. It's your choice Takuya." Takuya blinked at him then tried to say something but then shut her mouth again. She knew he wasn't kidding when he got like this. So instead of fighting it, Takuya just sighed and put the pitchfork down. "Ok, I'll join back with you guys," replied Takuya; "Just give me a second so I finish cleaning the stalls."
A small sigh of relief escaped from Falco's beak as he placed his blaster in its holster. "Good, cause right now we are in a big pickle now," he replied. Takuya raised an eyebrow in confusion as she looked at the blue bird. "Fill me in on what's going on now," she told him. Falco then took a deep breathe and began to talk with Takuya, discussing with her what was going on and why he really came by to see her. After listening to him for a bit, Takuya crossed her arms and nodded her head. "So you weren't trying to recruit me, you were actually asking me to join up with you guys to help out," she stated. "Yeah pretty much so," replied Falco; "We need your help this time. Andross is back." "What!" cried Takuya, "Andross is back? But I thought Fox destroyed him before." "Well the planet was exploding all around Fox so he couldn't tell if he actually destroyed Andross or not," stated Falco; "But the point of the matter is that Andross is back and stronger than ever and we need all the help we could get if we're going to defeat that monkey once and for all." Takuya sighed, rubbing her head in annoyance. "Great! Just what I need more headaches," she mumbled, looking up at Falco; he asked her. "Well do you know where the others are?" "Not a clue," answered Takuya, "Not a clue."
