TO SUBSPACE AND BEYOND

Prologue Part 4

By: Heretostay123

Hey guys. It's me with the fourth part of my story. It seems to be weak right now, but it's gonna get exciting soon enough. There's been a change in main characters too. Fox is now second main character, not Ike. I'm open to ideas and suggestions, so fire away. Please excuse any grammar or spelling errors. Summer break started like 3 days ago, and I've been super lazy since then, so yeah. Here we go.

Link and his companions new and old rounded the bend to come face to face with a horde of Toto's. Not good. He nodded at Pit who nodded back. "Be careful everybody, one false move and it all goes to hell." Marth, Roy, and Ike nodded silently, while Kirby, Mario, and Yoshi shared nervous glances. They weren't what you could call "Graceful" and they knew it.

The canyons weren't the best place for a Toto stampede, especially the bottleneck they were in. Pit's face lit up with an idea. "I can take turns flying people across" Link immediately knew that idea would work. He nodded his agreement and raised his arm and felt the ground move from beneath his feet.

He saw the endless sea of Toto's pass beneath him. If we woke up one, we would be worse off than if Ganon himself led his entire force of evil against us. He had a vision, a young man clad in green in a circle of pillars trapping him in the arena with a large man in black armor wielding a vicious looking red blade compared to his normal hand and a half glowing sword and small shield. The two warriors clashed until the young man forced the other down, and flipped through the air and stabbed the dark man through a gleaming slash through his chest, and his world went dark.

He awoke to find everyone gathered around him on the other side of the Toto Sea. "Link, are you ok?" asked a desperate Pit. He nodded. "Oh, that is good. Phew. We were all worried for a little bit." Link thought how long was I out?

He sat up and began look around. It couldn't have been more than an hour. He stood up and started walking away from the sea, not wanting to take chances. In a bout of gusto, Mario chucked a rock at the nearest Toto and shouted "Take that you a big a bullies!" The expression on his face went from confident to being stabbed in the face terrified in a split second as the monster opened its eyes. "Oh a crap a….."

Ike slapped him on the back of the head and cursed him. "You'll be the death of us." Mario started to sob and backed away slowly, as did everyone else. "Mario, Yoshi, Kirby, go with Pit. Lead them to safety." Pit appeared reluctant, but Ike was insistent, "NOW." It wasn't a request, it was a command.

The 4 left the other 4 to go to safety. Link knew that even if they defeated their foes and survived, they would most likely die due to wounds. Soon, the whole group began to wake up. They bared their teeth and charged. A battle they never would've had to fight came down on them like a storm on pebbles. Link had one last thought on his mind, oh Zelda, please forgive me…..

The monkeys led the exhausted pilot out of the dense undergrowth. He saw the Star Fox in the air. "Slippy, bring her down. We're next to the rock that looks like Falco's face." He described the ugly hunk of rock that he stood next to.

"I see you Fox, and that DOES look like Falco's face, doesn't it?" He giggled under his breath and landed next to the odd trio. "I can see you've made some…friends." He said nervously.

"Indeed I have, now let us board." When the ramp dropped, he scrambled aboard and gestured for the monkeys to join them.

The larger one, known as Donkey Kong, was reluctant. "Oo, oo oo. Ah." Fox sighed and looked at the smaller one, Diddy Kong. He swiftly joined him on deck. Donkey grimaced at Diddy and joined the two on the ship. The ramp closed and the 3 life forms joined Slippy on the bridge.

"Fox, I've been looking around while you went on your little adventure. It's a massive ship."

Fox face-palmed the little frog. "No dip Slippy. What do you think it is? An ice cream truck? Once Falco gets back, we're goin after it."

Slippy, withholding his rage, nodded. "Ok. Ok. Don't get your panties in a wad."
