Office Attacks

As the Great Fox entered the atmosphere of Corneria, Fox tried several times to get a hold of Pepper. Finally he was able to get through to him after fighting with the old toad who seemed to be very upset that Fox interrupted her tv show.

"Hello Fox, I see you are coming in for a landing. What can I do for you?"

"Well, I have a problem I would like to discuss with you. Its about what you told me yesterday." He said rather worrisome.

"Right, yes. Well, if you would like to speak with me show up in my office at about 4:00 pm. I do as well have a serious matter to discuss with you that does not involve the mission at hand."

Fox's ears immediately went to attention as he heard Pepper's last response. A serious matter? Could this be the issue between Fox and Wolf that has been floating around? It's been about 2 years since Wolf was killed, or was he killed? This has always been Fox's mind.

"Yes sir I will be there at 4." Deciding against to bring up the subject

3 hours later...

The Great Fox landed and Fox was rather pleased to find a nice sleek sports car waiting for him. Him and Krystal climbed in and Fox fired it up. He found almost a relaxing feeling as the V12 motor reved and idled.

"Well Fox are we just going to sit here or are we going to see whats up?"

Fox was broken from his trance and sat up straight.

"Uh..yea, sorry its been a while since i was behind the wheel"

Fox took the car up to speed and arrived at Pepper's office at 3:45. Looking up at the building always made Fox wonder what would be assigned next. He asked if Krystal would care to join and she accepted.

"Hello I called and was told to meet Pepper at 4". Fox told the old toad.

"Oh you're the little ann- ok fine he's upstairs. You know how to get up there."

A bit annoyed at the toad's response, Fox and Krystal took the escalator up to the ever non changing office of Pepper. After about 2 minutes of silence Krystal broke the ice.

"Hey Fox are you ok? You have really been quite the past few days and I'm worrying about you."

Fox took a minute to answer. "Yeah I am okay. Just kinda thinking about what Pepper wishes to discuss. It all seems so odd. It feels as if this has happened again. Not the discussion but the issue."

"Hm. Okay. Does this have any relation to the recent attack on the Cornerian Cruisers last week?"

"I think so...but...I am not sure..." Fox's mind really started to race as he thought on the attacks. They were attacked by some odd ship. Also the reports stated of an Arwing escaping...

Fox and Krystal entered Pepper's office 2 minutes later. As Fox walked closer to the desk with the all familar chairs he looked at Pepper's hard face. It seemed a bit more worried. That or Fox's mind was playing with him. As he sat down, Pepper took a look at a report and passed it to Fox, who at first didn't know what it was.

"Well Fox as you can see, there is a very serious issue occurring. This attack, was made up of Andross's army."

"WHAT? He is back? Did any survive...the cruisers?"

"This cannot be good...I did remember having odd though patterns" added Krystal.

Fox pondered about what Pepper has said. Andross...back...not good. Fox immediately thought to what Pepper wished to talk about.

"No none of the cruisers survived, yes an Arwing did make it out, no we do not know who it was. And I want StarFox to find out what Andross is up to."

"Yes...sir...what was the other thing you wanted to talk about?"

Pepper looked at him hard and long. Fox started to sweat with confusion.

"Pepper...what was is it?"

"We have received a distress signal a few hours ago. The code seemed odd so I checked it out. The code was a very similar code. Fox, it was your father."

Authors note: Yes it may seem odd and weird to StarFox, but I thought it would be cool. Feel free to review. Please, it helps all the time! Thanks! The first few chapters may be odd, but dont give up on my stories lol :p.
