"I need to sleep more often." Fox said as he watched the clock at 2 in the morning. The thing was, he just wasn't tired. A bad habit he had picked up the last few months. But another reason he couldn't sleep, was he finally took the leap. He was going tomorrow, out to lunch with what has been his crush since he met her.

He smiled at the thought. Then he frowned. Fox had absolutely no idea what to do. When he was younger, he really didn't have time to do this kind of stuff. He and his dad, James, moved a lot.

Dad.

It was times like this he really missed him. He would know what to do. Dads always did. But, things haven't ever been the same after he was murdered. This was half the reason why he was a mercenary. To try and make the universe a better place.

Fox thought deeper. In a way, his father's death had caused a lot of things. Not all of those things were bad also. He found who his true friends were. Falco and Slippy and Peppy were there to help him back up. Plus, he found his true passion. The Arwing was a second home to him.

Plus, he met Krystal on his adventures. That was a very good thing.

Fox smiled a looked back at the clock. 2:47 in the morning. Maybe he could sleep now.

"Fox," ROB, the robot that helped run the ship had walked in.

"What's up?"

"I have received a distress call, do you want me alert the others?"

Fox jumped off the couch. He had been waiting for this moment for too long.

"Of course! Wait…It depends, how big is it?"

The robots voice dropped to a sad tone (as best as the AI could).

"It's from General Pepper."

Fox blanched. He looked at the robot for a second then took charge.

"Call the others now. Tell them what going on. Have them meet me in the hangar. NOW!"

He ran towards the main control room. When Fox reached it, he read the message. It was in a text form, encrypted to keep the enemy from knowing they alerted any one else.

It read,

My name is General Pepper and we are in dire need of aide. Our capitol is currently under siege. We were over come by the strength of the opposing forces. Our radar and communications were almost completely destroyed by a giant EMP. If the capitol is successfully rescued, we will we make payment to any help that was given. Please hurry, time is running out. The universal coordinates are4657-9066-1234f.

End message.

There was only one twisted mind smart enough to build a weapon that could take out all the communications of the capitol.

Andrew.

Fox ran towards the hangar with a determined step. The score will be settled here. Andrew had been too much trouble for Fox over the last years. It would be ended here and now.

The others were already on the wings of their Arwing ready to go. Fully suited, they awaited the orders from the captain.

"Rob, I can assume every ones been briefed on the problem?"

"Yes sir. I'm assuming hyper-drive laws in this sector can be abandoned in this emergency?" Rob answered. Laws placed did not allow large ships to "jump" in the area due to electro magnetic shock waves. But this should be an exception.

"Agreed, set course for Corneria."

He jumped in his Arwing. His crew silently followed suit. He heard the low hum as the Greatfox made a short "jump" through space. The planet suddenly appeared in the distance. They would be there soon.

"Hey Fox."

"Yes Falco."

"This feels like bad karma man. I've been hoping for action for so long. No, wishing, for action. But not like this."

Fox let out a nervous laugh.

"Don't worry, it's has nothing to do with you. But by the sounds of it, it looks like Andrew is once again the culprit. So team, let's do a good job and finish him this time."

"Sounds like a good plan to me!" Falco answered.

Krystal contacted him on a private line.

"So much for our plans."

"Yeah, that's just great." Fox frowned. He forgot all about that. nothing ever went right.

"But you know what Fox?" Krystal said with a sly smile over the line ," I'd rather be doing this."

A short addition to my story (though I do think it's the longest chapter). But a start. I haven't been here since forever. Ill try to get more into this. Cause I want to finish this! Thanks for reading!
