Hey people. This chapter is probably going to be pretty short, but oh well.
After a shaky entrance, which was to be expected, the Great Fox landed on Corneria about half a mile away from the One diner.
"Looks like they did rebuild that diner after all." Falco observed as the Star Fox team exited the Great Fox and started walking down the half mile towards the diner.
In the corner of Fox's eye, he thought he saw a familiar grey ball of fur jogging down the road, but when he looked back, it was gone.
Moments later, they reached the One diner and stood outside waiting for Slippy. It was 2:45, so he still had some time.
"How much do you want to bet we'll be here until 3:30?" Falco said, breaking the awkward silence.
"What are you implying, Falco?" Fox asked, not looking at the avian.
"Well, he's always late. Probably tripping over his own feet."
"Listen, you don't have to deal with him for days on end when we get started, and you haven't seen him for weeks anyways, just be nice to him this one time."
Falco crossed his arms. "Fine."
15 seconds later, a warm and inviting green blob appeared in the distance, running at the team. Well, sort of running, sort of hopping. I'm not completely sure what he was doing.
"Hey guys!" Slippy said when he was close enough.
Falco looked at his watch. "You're 10 seconds late, Slippy."
Fox shot the avian a dirty look, as the toad stood with a confused look on his face.
Peppy started walking in the direction of the Great Fox, calling "Come on, let's get off Corneria and separate the two before they tear each other apart."
"Right." Fox started, following behind Peppy. "First stop, Katina."
Krystal walked by his side, followed by Slippy and Falco.
"So what's the path going to look like, Fox?" Slippy asked. It was at that point, that Fox remembered just how annoying Slippy really was.
"Uh, first we'll go to Katina, then Fortuna. Then you three will head to Aquas, while me and Krystal..." He looked at Krystal, who looked back. "...will go to Sauria."
Everybody, even R.O.B., looked at Fox in awkward silence.
Fox, who was too busy admiring his wife, didn't notice the rest of the team looking at him until Krystal whispered "Fox, they're looking at us." At that, Fox turned his head and was met by 3 pairs of eyes staring at him. "What?!"
Peppy chuckled and decided that it would be even more awkward if Fox continued, so he finished explaining the path to Slippy. "After Aquas, we'll head to Zoness and Titania. After that, we'll whip around Solar, passing through Sector Z, and go to Papetoon, Fichina, and back to Corneria to enjoy the rest of the vacation."
"When can we expect the two lovebirds over there to join us after they go to Sauria?" Falco asked, in a slightly mocking tone.
"We'll meet you at Zoness." Fox said.
As soon as the words left Fox's mouth, the Great Fox was just exiting Corneria's atmosphere, and they're vacation began.
Sorry it's so short, but I was pressed on time. Anyways, hope ya'll enjoyed. See ya next time!
