Chapter One- A brief introduction
"Shit!" Fox screamed out.
A scream came from the room next to him at three o'clock in the morning. The young fox jumped out of bed, dressed in only his boxers, and ran out into the hall. He was surprised to see Falco and Slippy up and out of bed too, running to the room the scream had come from.
"It's Krystal." Falco said as Fox came closer.
Fox didn't stop to ask questions or knock. He opened the door to Krystal's room and turned the light on.
Krystal's room was the largest on the shuttle and the cleanest. As being the only girl, it was no wonder why.
It had a strange smell of heavy incense and a light purple colour for the walls. Instead of a desk, there was a table with four large cushions surrounding it, all of the colour blue and each having strange, out of this world words and designs no one quite understood. Her bed was large and took up half the room and was in the form of a circle with only one thin silk, white blanket to cover one's self and many large pillows with the same words and designs as the cushions. Her floor was bare metal, like the rest, with a large, fluffy rug under the table and cushions. She had a large, oak bookshelf unlike the others that had over 100 books.
In the middle of the bed, sitting up straight with her fingers to her temples and eyes closed was Krystal. She was wearing nothing but a thin, almost see-through, silk nightgown that barely covered her thighs.
Before anyone could ask, Krystal opened her eyes and said, "A distress call."
"Ah, fuck it!" Falco said. "Can we ever get a decent night's sleep around here?"
Fox rolled his eyes. Falco was always complaining about everything. He'd left the Starfox team many times in the past and yet, he kept coming back.
Fox walked over to her bed and sat down at the edge, reaching his hand out for support. Krystal smiled and wrapped her fingers around his.
"Where is it coming from?" Fox asked.
Krystal shook her head, "Somewhere I have never been. It is far from here, almost at the edge of the Lylat System. It will take us a couple of days to get there."
Slippy sighed. "Great, another long voyage. Does it require me to make anymore translators?"
Falco laughed. "Don't worry Slip, if it does, I'll help ya."
A sigh came from the rest of the members as the bird had said it. He was so cocky all the time.
"This won't require one, Slippy." Krystal paused to think. "But we might need weapons."
The mens' ears shot up and they all smiled. Finally a mission they would be good at. All they ever wanted to use were guns. All they wanted to do on missions was kill things. Shoot first, ask questions later.
"Well then let's go!" Slippy chirped. He sprung up in a leap and ran off his room to get changed.
Falco laughed and began to walk out. He turned around and looked Krystal up and down, giving her a look he seemed to give her when she wore something exposing. This look gave Fox shivers and made him angry.
"Oh and, by the way Krystal, you should wear that more often." Falco winked and walked out, closing the door behind him.
Krystal blushed a little but rolled her eyes. She looked down at herself and laughed, thinking about what Falco would do to her in that outfit if she gave him the chance.
Fox coughed and stood up. "You should probably get changed."
Krystal smirked and looked at Fox's boxers, the only thing on his body, and laughed. Fox suddenly became embarrassed and walked towards the doors quite quickly.
As he was about to exit Krystal stopped him and said, "I'll wear this if you wear that."
Fox blushed a bright red and stuttered, "Uh, ahem…y-you should p-probably hurry up."
And with that he left the room in a hurry to go and change into his pilot uniform.

And that is the first chapter for you.
Sorry it was so short but the title of the chapter is after all 'a brief introduction'. The next couple of chapters will be longer and will hold a lot more action.
Hope you enjoyed it so far!
