Episode 7: Starlight Outing
Slippy is in his room within the Great Fox working on a gadget. He spots his computer monitor showing an incoming voice call with a tadpole icon on the corner. "Amanda?" he wondered as he clicks the icon to bring up a video call with his wife-to-be.
"Hello there honey, you seem as busy as usual," Amanda said in a bright smile on her pink-colored face sporting her favorite yellow ribbon on the back of her head.
"Hey, there sweetheart. How is Aquas lately?" Slippy asked as Amanda's face soured.
"Well, there are pirates attacks within the planetwide ocean. There are reports about them using underwater bases to launch attacks from," Amanda said.
"Seriously, you didn't find any trouble there did you?" he asked as Slippy feels pretty worried about this.
"Nope, I haven't but I am keeping watch over the situation here. Don't worry about it too much darling," Amanda said.
"If you say so, can't wait to head for our date at the Starlight karaoke bar in the Aquas Ether space station. By the way, do you mean if Fox and Krystal would go with us?" Amanda asked.
"Oh, why do you ask?" he asked.
"Well, Krystal wanted to surprise Fox with this date. She thought it would be noticed to go on a double date with them," Amanda said.
"That's a great idea with what happened with Krystal. I think it's good to have fun with her and Fox. Hanging out at the bar with good food and music. It's going to be so cool," Slippy said sounding excited by this.
"Oh yes, it will be good. This Karaoke bar is top graded in the reviews. it will be a great time," Amanda said.
"Well, our date is coming up today. Better get ready, I will meet you on the great fox's hanger. I will use my shuttle to get us there," Amanda said as Slippy is getting ready for their double date.
Elsewhere Krystal is doing some stretches for Fox comes into her room to see her half-naked with her blue sports bra and blue boyshorts fitting her tall buxom frame along with complementing her blue coat of fur quite well.
"Oh, hey Fox," Krystal said to bend over to show her thick round booty filling out her boyshorts to her new boyfriend making him distracted.
"Hey Krystal, I wanted to do some target practice and I wonder if you can join me?" he asked hopelessly staring at his girlfriend's nicely shaped rear looking too good in her panties with Krystal has a cheeky smile knowing her boyfriend likes this.
"Okay, let me get changed," Krystal said as Fox is about to leave by Krystal stops him. "No wait, you watch if you want, my dear," she said in a low tone making Fox's heart leap into his chest.
"Okay," he said meekly as Krystal slips on her grey pants for she grabs a green tank top with her large breasts bouncing under her sports bra and her long, beautiful legs fitting her pants. Krystal noticed Fox's stare to give him a sexy little wink. "What a tease," he thought.
"Let's go. Hey Fox, I heard about this new karaoke bar on the entertainment space station around Aquas. I think it would be a nice thing to go on a date there," Krystal said as they enter into the firing range to grab onto a semi-auto CW3 Blaster Carbine equipped with a smart scope to see the number of shots within the gun's power cell which is 15 shots per energy pack.
"Yeah that would be fun," Fox said as he grabs his weapon which is a Scattershot setting it on Full Auto mode.
"It's a double date with Slippy and Amanda. We are going out tonight," Krystal said.
"Cool, hanging out with Slippy and Amanda would make the night pretty interesting," Fox said as Krystal gently strokes her finger on his chest.
"I got a nice dress for the occasion. I think you are going to like it very much," Krystal said as she looks down the scope to put some shots downrange to destroy the moving holo targets.
"Can't wait for that," Fox said to send down precise shots to put down the incoming holo targets in the ranges. "We need this after what happened before," Fox said as he looks at Krystal's ears drooping down.
"Yes, we all need to calm down before going down the rabbit hole of the Ark," Krystal said as they both prepared for their double date tonight.
Several hours have passed with Fox and Slippy looking quite nice in their outfits to wait for Amanda to show up in a shuttle. "So, this place is brand new huh?" Fox asked with Slippy fixing his collar.
"Oh yes, it was developed after the Lylat wars ended over 10 years old," Slippy said as they spot the shuttle coming into the hanger to land inside.
"Honey, I am home," Amanda shouted as she opens the door to rush to her fiancé to give him a big hug.
"So sweetheart. How was the trip here?" Slippy asked as he lay onto his beautiful wife-to-be as she sports glossy pink skin especially on top of her bald head. She gives him a big kiss on the lips as she shoves his face into her chest.
"Oh, I miss you so much," Amanda said as Slippy is getting pressed her breasts with him enjoying every bit of him being in his girlfriend's warm embrace.
"Likewise, you are looking wonderful," Slippy comments onto her simple yet elegant blue dress which fits her shapely body pretty well.
"Thank you, only the best for my sweetie pie," Amanda said.
"Hey there Amanda, good to see you again," Fox greeted her as Amanda let out of her hug to share a handshake with Fox.
"Likewise, I hope you are keeping my little green tadpole safe," Amanda said.
"Yes, he is in good hands. He has been very useful with us lately dealing with the pirates groups starting to pop up like the Crimson Horde and the Wolf Pack," Fox said.
"Seems tough. Slippy told me about all this stuff going. It's pretty crazy out here in the Lylat system," Amanda said as they wait for Krystal to come into the hanger.
Krystal goes into the hanger with Fox seeing his girlfriend looking super pretty with her outfit fitting her tall curvaceous figure. "Damn Krystal, you are looking great," Fox said being impressed to see Krystal is wearing a purple tank top, a black knee-length skirt, and white sneakers with her blue hair styled quite nicely.
"Thank sweetie, you are looking cute too," Krystal said as she comments on his black outfit fitting his lean build. "Hey Amanda," Krystal said looking pretty happy to see her.
"Hey Krystal, you are looking pretty fine in that outfit," Amanda commented.
"Thank you, how was the ride, Amanda?" Krystal asked.
"A bit bumpy but the warp drive was smooth when it comes over," Amanda said as the four entered into her ship called the Tadpole. "Get comfy, we will be there shortly," Amanda said as everyone take their seats with Amanda at the pilot seats with Slippy being copilot.
"This is your new ship huh, shaped like a tadpole?" Krystal asked.
"Yep, my shuttle which also acts as a submersible. It comes with shielding and defense weapons like single laser cannons, bomb launchers, and plasma cannons," Amanda said as they manage to get to the space station within 30 minutes.
Fox and Slippy look at the massive Ether space station orbiting around the ocean planet of Aquas. "Wow, this is quite nice," Fox said.
"I can ditto those feelings," Slippy said as they approach one of the station's hangers beginning to park inside.
"Welcome to the Ether Space Station, you can come to one of our many entertainment centers. We have set up a new karaoke bar called Starlight for you to check out now," the loudspeaker said
They spot the bar entrance as they go inside to hear the blazing music, the smell of good food, and a dance stage in the middle where everyone can showcase their skills at the karaoke machine.
"Wow, this place is quite lively," Fox said.
"Sure, it's exciting in here. Girls, let us get our seats," Slippy said as they sit in a booth with the waitresses taking orders.
"We are going to look around. We will be right back," Fox said as the two boys look around the place leaving the two girls alone.
"Wow, this place is something else," Krystal commented.
"I can pick them out or what," Amanda said as Amanda feels proud of herself.
"So how is your job in nursing going?" Krystal asked.
"Doing decently, helping people who got hurt by criminals in the ocean of Aquas. It's quite a load I was handling," Amanda said.
"Yes, things are getting hectic these days," Krystal said.
"Yeah but I managed. So, how are you feeling lately with recent things happening?" Amanda asked.
'Oh yes, I am taking it in. All this Ark business is brought out things I thought were long gone. I had no leads when finding my home and it's connected to its destruction. It's upsetting but I want to know," Krystal said as Amanda pats her on the back.
"If you need anything, just call me and I will support you," Amanda said as she hugs Amanda.
"Thank you, Amanda, I will remember that," Krystal said as they see the two guys coming back to sit back with the girls. "Sorry girls, Fox and I were checking something out," Slippy said.
"That is okay, we were having a little girl talk," Amanda said as the two girls are giggling for Fox and Slippy look on with confusion.
"I am happy Krystal is befriending Amanda," Fox said.
"Indeed, we should get our orders," Slippy said as they got their meals for them enjoying the tasty food. Krystal is eating a plate of mozzarella sticks to enjoy the gooey cheese inside.
"Oh man, this is good," Krystal said as Amanda looks on with jealousy.
"Gee, you know how to put away food without your stomach blowing up," Amanda said.
"Yeah Krystal has a black hole for a stomach," Fox joked.
"Hey; I like eating good food, what's wrong with that," Krystal said to drink down her citrus juice. "Oh, that hits the spot," she said.
"Hey, the karaoke machine is opened. Hey Krystal, show us your voice," Amanda said.
"Okay, I am a little nervous," Krystal said as Fox puts a gentle hand on her shoulder to encourage her.
"Come on, let's see what you got," Fox said as Krystal nods her head to kiss him for good luck.
"Okay, here we go," Krystal said as she reaches for the stage with everyone watching her. "Fox is with me. I can do anything," Krystal said as she has her boyfriend in her thought to give her strength and courage. She grabs the mic to begin choosing a song to sing. "Oh, perfect Diamond in the Sky," Krystal smiles at this.
The machine sets up the music with this bright pop music coming out of the speakers with lights on Krystal. Krystal taps her sneaker on the stage to let the music flow through her body.
"And so today I know that it's a new start. I know the bad times are disappearing. Cause now I know that we'll never be apart," Krystal's voice picks up with the crowd getting excited by her beautiful singing voice.
"Wow," Fox said as Krystal seems to be into the music as she is starting to sway her body along with the pop music.
"You are the one that makes me feel so high. Just like the diamonds in the sky. I never want to hear you say goodbye. Cause you are my diamond in the sky," Krystal begins to get off the stage to memorize the song by heart to walk towards Fox.
The crowd looks on with awe to see this young woman singing her heart out to this love song.
"You're the one that makes me feel so high. Just like the diamonds in the sky. I never want to hear you say goodbye. Cause you are my diamond in the sky," Krystal said as she goes through the crowd with men envying Fox for Krystal is clearly singing for him and only him.
"Another road that we must travel. Another night for you to show me the way. And so today, I give up dreaming, Cause now I know, I need you every day," Krystal's voice explodes to look deep within Fox's eyes. His presence gives her the strength to push aside her nervousness to sing her feeling for him to everyone around her.
"Damn this girl got some pipes," Amanda said sounding very impressed.
"Yeah man, wish someone can sing like that for me," Slippy said as Amanda pats him on the back.
"I am quite bad at singing, I will fuck it up badly," Amanda said for them to see Krystal next to their booth to be standing beside Fox.
"You're the one that makes me feel so high. Just like the diamonds in the sky. I never want to hear you say goodbye. Cause you are my diamond in the sky," Krystal finishes planting a big kiss on his lips to end it off with the crowd clapping and cheering.
Slippy and Amanda cheer along as well with the couple sporting deep blushes.
"This is for my boyfriend Fox," Krystal said proudly to gently brush her hand across his cheek. "He is the most caring and sweetest man I have known, this song is for him," Krystal said to go back to the stage to place the mic down to head back to the booth.
"That was great Krystal, the people seem to like it," Slippy said as everyone is talking about it. Krystal sits beside Fox to feel very embarrassed.
"It was embarrassing but with Fox there, I manage to summon the courage to do it," Krystal said to lie her head on his shoulder.
"You were amazing as always," Fox said as Krystal sported a big smile.
"When we get some private time., You can put your head on my lap and I will sing until your heart burst from all my love pouring into it," Krystal said for the double date went through without any trouble for everyone had a fun time and disburse.
"Well, that was pretty fun hanging out with you both Fox and Krystal. Hope we can all hang out again, come on Slippy. Let's go," Amanda said to put her arm around his own. They head into the Tadpole as they go back to the Great Fox for Amanda to drop them off. "If you don't mind, Slippy is staying over tonight at my place," Amanda said as she kisses Slippy's cheek.
"Well, see you guys later," Slippy said as they two head off leaving Fox and Krystal behind. Katt watches from the side working on her new fighter.
"I still can't believe it, the toad got himself a fiancé. Who would have thought," Katt said as she is standing beside Fox and Krystal.
"Yeah, Slippy deserves to have some happiness with him going through all the things we had done together," Fox said.
"Yes, Amanda is good for Slippy. They are both a pretty good match," Krystal said.
"Well, I guess so. Anything can happen, I heard you all went to the karaoke bar on the Ether space station," Katt said.
"Yeah its pretty fun with good food too," Krystal said as Katt ponders on this.
"I wonder if I can take Falco and the others there sometime," Katt said as they rest up for the next day.
