The Search for Fox: Part II

Leaving the Lylat System

This story starts out in the middle of the adventure:

This story starts out, you see Sonic and Umbreon were standing in front of the computer, trying their best to get a signal. Then, Krystal walks in.

"Have you found anything yet?" asked Krystal

"Nope, nothing" said Umbreon "Sonic and I have been trying for hours"

"Come on, Umbreon" said Sonic "We can't give up now! I ain't giving up yet! Let's keep going"

"Please, keep trying" said Krystal "I'm really…"

"I know, I know" said Sonic "You're worried about him. Geez, you've said that, like, a hundred times, give it a rest! We're working on it"

"Why are you worried about him, anyway?" asked Umbreon

"Well, It's that I… uh" said Krystal in hesitation

"I think I know why" said Sonic

"Why?" asked Umbreon

"Well, uh… you see… I… uh… Krystal, why are you worried about Fox?" asked Sonic

"Thought so" said Umbreon "Hey, Krystal, did Fox say anything about going anywhere before he disappeared"

"Well, General Pepper sent him on a solo mission to investigate a planet outside the lylat system, so…" said Krystal

"…So, he can be anywhere except the lylat system" said Sonic

"He could be on that planet" said Umbreon "The question is, where?"

"I don't know where the planet is… Fox didn't tell any of us just so we wouldn't interfere with his mission" said Krystal

"Hey, guys" said Tails flying in "I'm getting a transmission!"

"Tails! Where did you come from?" said Sonic

"I wanted a part in this story" said Tails

"You just can't wait, can you?" asked Sonic

"Neither can you, Sonic" said Umbreon

"The transmission, Tails! Did you find Fox?" said Krystal in anxiety

"Oh, the transmission!" said Tails "Yes, it's a transmission, but it's not from Fox"

"Then, who is it from?" asked Umbreon

"I don't know, three scary looking guys, one had an eye patch" said Tails

"Oh, no" said Krystal "Not them!"

"Who are they?" asked Sonic

"What do they want?" asked Krystal

"They wanted to fight" said Tails "On the planet Katina"

"That's the planet we're orbiting, right?" asked Sonic

"Yeah" said Tails

"Okay, well tell them, whoever they are, bring it on!" said Sonic

"Sonic!" said Krystal "Let's not forget about Fox"

"Don't worry, I'm curious about these guys" said Sonic "I want to see if their actually good or not"

"Sonic" said Krystal "they're not…"

"Upuppupup! Don't spoil it for me" said Sonic "I'm dying for a fight"

"Well, if you're going, I'm going, too" said Umbreon

"If we go, promise me we'll continue, and no stops" said Krystal

"Yeah, yeah, I promise" said Sonic

"Okay, good" said Krystal

"Sonic Team! Let's go!" Yelled Sonic

"Pokeagents! Let's go!" Yelled Umbreon

"Beam us down, Big!" yelled Sonic

They got beamed down to Katina where there was a waist land, and nothing but. Then, they found three wolfen landed in the horizon. Then, they saw them, the star wolf.

"Wait a sec!" said Wolf "You're not starfox! Who are you?"

"I could ask the same question" said Sonic

"We're star wolf, the greatest team around" said Wolf "and I… Wait, aren't you Krystal of starfox?"

"Yes, I am" said Krystal

"Then, why not be with me, Krystal?" asked Panther

"Hmph!" said Krystal as she yanked her head away from Panther, and crossed her arms.

"Hey, leave her alone!" said Sonic "Fox has gone missing and she's been worried sick about him, and we've been trying to…"

"Can it, hedgehog!" said Wolf

"Oh, you did not!" said Sonic

"You know we're better than you" said Wolf

"Oh, I'm going to enjoy this!" said Sonic

"Cool it, Sonic" said Umbreon

"Yeah, like totally" said Espeon "What do you dudes, like, totally want?"

"We want to fight you 'till you die!" said Leon

"Heh, love to see you try" said Knuckles "For as long as I have my fists, I'll pulverize you!"

"Why do you guys want to fight?" asked Skipper

"Because we want to" said Wolf

"Who are these guys" Shadow whispered to Krystal

"They're the star wolf, they are really no-good thugs" said Krystal "But they're really pathetic and easy"

"We heard that!" said Wolf

"You guys better not be too easy" said Sonic "I love a good challenge!"

"Fine" said Wolf "We'll show you what the star wolf is. Leon, Panther, let's show these guys who's boss!"

"Sonic Team, attack!" Yelled Sonic

"Pokeagents, attack!" Yelled Umbreon

"We'll go for the Spanish freak, Umbreon, you and the pokeagents go after the lizard, Krystal, get that weirdo with an eye patch" said Sonic

"That's it! I am Panther Caruso! Make me mad and your life's as good as gone!" said Panther

"You gotta try to take it first, loser" said Sonic kicking Panther in the face.

"Hehheheheh, I'll crush you animals" said Leon

"Last I checked, you're an animal, too, ya know!" said Umbreon using faint attack

The battle went on.

"Face it, Krystal, you're no match for us!" said Wolf

"Last I checked we always got the better of you" said Krystal hitting Wolf with her staff.

"So, I hear Fox is missing" said Wolf "Ha! He was never that good, even if he tried! He's just an amateur, just like the rest of you"

"no, he… WAS… NOT!" said Krystal hitting Wolf harder.

She it Wolf so hard it knocked him out, then she ran on over to Leon and knocked him out.

"What in the world?" said Umbreon jumping out of the way with the other pokeagents

Then, Krystal ran over to Panther and knocked him out with her staff.

"Hey!" said Sonic running out of the way with the other Sonic Team "What are you doing? We had it under control!"

Then, Krystal stopped and started panting.

"Fox… was always… Better than you… and he always will be… And he's the person… that jerks like you… would never surpass…" said Krystal

"Krystal, what was that all about?" asked Sonic

"I'm fine, I'm fine" said Krystal

"No you're not!" said Shadow "You went out of control there"

"I'm sorry" said Krystal "It's just that those thugs make me mad all the time, it's that I just…"

"Krystal, it's like, totally cool" said Espeon

"Yeah!" said Treeko "That was cool! You went totally crazy! You're like bbbbbrrrrrrzzzzzzzzzzzzz, then your like GRrrrrr, then crash!"

"I couldn't understand him if I tried either" said Umbreon

"I'm hungry" said Amoeba

"Amoeba, where have you been this entire episode?" asked Sonic

"I had to use the bathroom, and…"

"Heard enough" said Sonic

"Krystal, are you sure you're going to be okay?" asked Skipper

"Yes, I'll be fine" said Krystal

"Good! I gotta pee!" said Skipper

"Okay, let's head back to the U.S.S. hedgehog" said Sonic "Before Skipper makes a mess of things"

"Right, who's up for some dinner?" asked Knuckles

"It's 1:34, Knuckles" said Shadow looking at his watch

"Brunch, then!" said Knuckles

"Okay, that sounds logical" said Shadow

"Let's go, before Skipper does" said Sonic

"Too late" said Skipper

"Ugh, Big, beam us up, please" said Sonic

Then, they all were beamed up to the U.S.S. hedgehog. Two hours later, Knuckles started cooking brunch. Then, Tails got a message.

"Guys, Guys! I'm getting something" said Tails "It's from Falco!"

"Ugh, not him" said Krystal "Bring him up on monitor"

"Hey, guys, and Krystal" said Falco "I've got this message from Fox, but, um… Krystal, you're not gonna want to see this"

"Show us! Show us!" said Sonic

"Alright" said Falco

Fox appeared on the monitor "Hey Starfox, um… I've heard Krystal has gone out looking for me, so, after this message, forward it to her. Whatever you do, don't come after me, got it? I don't want any of you getting hurt, especially you, Krystal. Whatever you do, don't come looking for me, so, Krystal, I'm sorry, but, I need you to turn around and go home, please, Fox out"

"What was that all about?" said Sonic "Krystal, can you believe this guy?"

"Fox" said Krystal in tears "What is it with you?"

Krystal walked away with her tail dragging on the ground.

"You guys keep going, I've gotta go" said Sonic

"What is up with Fox?" asked Umbreon "It's not like him to say anything like that?"

"Totally, dude" said Espeon "What is up with him?"

"What's going on over there?" asked Knuckles "did I just hear Fox?"

"No, Knuckles, it was just a message, please get back to work" said Umbreon

"Sheesh, Umbreon, you sound like Sonic" said Knuckles

Meanwhile in one of the sleeping quarters, Krystal was on her bed, crying, and at the same time she was thinking either to find Fox or to go back. Then, Sonic walked in.

"…Man, Treeko sure is crazy" said Sonic "Hey, Krystal, what's up?"

"Oh, Sonic, I don't know what to do" said Krystal "I don't know whether to keep looking or call this all off"

"Don't say that" said Sonic sitting next to her "We've gone so far, well… not that far, but we've gone far"

"Sonic, do you think Fox cares about me?" asked Krystal

"You care for him, don't you?" said Sonic

"Well, I… guess" said Krystal

"I know you do, trust me, I know" said Sonic "To answer your question: I think he does! After all, he can't just say something like that all the sudden with no apparent reason. I think it'd be wise to find out. But that's up to you, so what'll it be?"

"When you say those words, you remind me of Fox" said Krystal

"That's nice, now, now what do we do, tuck our tails between our legs and go home, or move on?"

"There has to be a reason, what if Fox still cares about me?" Krystal thought to herself "Alright, Sonic, we'll move on"

"Yes!" said Sonic jumping up and almost freaking Krystal out "Let's go find Fox! That means more adventure! Alright, Big, set a course outside the Lylat system, we're moving on!"

"Sonic" said Krystal "Thanks"

"Anytime, we're friends, right?" said Sonic "Friends stick together, and I'm sure Fox thinks the same"

Sonic raced off to the cafeteria.

"Sonic! I'm not done yet!" Yelled Knuckles

"I don't care! I'm waiting you know!" said Sonic

Krystal walked in, partially worried about Fox, but partially confident that Fox will understand why she came for him.

"Hey, Krystal you know what's funny" said Amoeba walking in "I like doughnuts!"

"And…" said Sonic

"That's it" said Amoeba

"Yeah, well you know what I find funny" said Umbreon "The damsel in distress has become the hero… ahem… heroin… and the hero has become the damsel in distress, funny?"

"Yeah, that is kind of funny" said Sonic laughing out loud

Krystal, sat down with her mind on Fox. She couldn't wait to see his face again, she almost felt like kissing him on the mouth, but, all she could do was keep searching.

To be continued…

"Until then, brunch!" said Knuckles

"That ain't 'till the next chapter" said Sonic
