Fox and Mario found themselvs plopped on an oddly shaped platform, place above what seemed to be a racetrack. The sudden blazing by of racers below them clearly showed that a race was in progress.

Mario felt sweat drip down the back of his head. Getting struck by one of those would guarantee a loss in the tournament, if you got the picture.

The quick distraction, and sheer volume of the noise allowed Fox to blaze forward himself, and throw a fist to Mario's face. Mario grabbed his cheek where he was struck and gave a violent stare.

".....Don't-a worry, dis isnt going to be easy for you either.."

**********

"HAAAAAAHAAHAAAAAA Look whos first, losers! Samurai Goroh, you just suck!"

This particular cocky voice belonged to the greatest F-zero racer in the world, Captain Falcon. He rammed the EX-leader into the side of the track, spewing trash talk into his radio device.

Amazingly enough, Goroh's voice could be heard cleary, even tho he was not using his radio. Anger fueled his lungs.

"YOU COCKY LITTLE SH$#$! I'M GONNA TEAR YOUR MACHINE APART!"

While the two "men" quibbled, another racer stormed by, intellegent enough to realize that chattering ruined focus. Blood Falcon keep his cool, and felt first place holding its arms open for him.

Captain Falcon ignored Goroh's rants and sped quickly ahead, using his turbo's, which reduced his shielding to dangerous levels. His intent to have a perfect winning streak made him temporarily insane during furious races such as this. He sped forward, almost catching up...

BOOM.

Samurai Goroh slammed into the back of Falcon's car, rendering it useless, and now a miniture timebomb. The cats were not made for the damage the Falcon was prepared to take for it. Realizing this, the once cocky Captain felt a surge of dread, which quickly disappated as he viewed a platform he could eject to.

"HAHAHAHAHA See you at 30th place, good "captain"!

Goroh sped by, with pure adrenaline impossibly making him drive faster, quickly catching up to the calm Blood Falcon.

Captain Falcon considered staying in his car, risking the chance that it wont blow. The gagues he viewed told him other wise, and he hesitantly pressed the eject button.

"I'll get you..... GOROH!"

He boosted out of his car at the latest possible time, as exploding debris smashed into him just as he was about to land on the platform. He landed with a thud.

Captain Falcon was a very agile man, and he could have taken measures to ensure that wouldn't have happened. However, when one sees a Fox-man, and a Short stubby man with a large nose in a world where there was none, it tends to mess one's mind up a little, losing all contact with the environment around oneself.

"KWAHHWHWHWHWHWHW!"

Captain Falcon grew angry with rage as he heard the spewed laughter of Gomar and Shioh as they sped by.

Gomar and Shioh were the only case where 2 people were allowed to pilot one vehicle simply because the materials on their planet are so fragile and light, as are the creatures themselvs, that 2 of them are needed for their machine to operate correctly. Their car was officialy the lightest ever in F-zero history.

"Move out of the way, idiot!" Fox exerted molecular charges out of his ray gun, purposly aiming away from Falcon, who had just plopped out of nowhere to him. The collateral damage fron the blasts made Falcon laugh boistrously, as they had collided with the previous alien's craft, rendering it useless.

Ignoring what seemed like a maniac to him, Mario used Fox's confusion to leap over Falcon and land a crushing stomp of Fox's head. Before jumping back to his original position, he threw a searing flame sphere at Fox, who had no time to avoid.

Fortunetly Fox had his Repel shield set to Auto, which turned on the shield instantly should any obstruction other than pure fist strike it.

Mario blew up at his mustache in frustration.

Falcon darted forward at such a speed that made him invisible to the naked eye for .6 seconds, which was more than enough time to confuse a person, allowing for a....

PLOP.

Fox fell face first in front of Mario.

"...Damn, Foxguy.. You really arent that fast."

He proudly clutched his fist around Fox's tail. Fox clenched his teeth.

"Let me go."

Mario waited, not being in his nature to strike one defenseless. Behind the pain his body provided, he found enough strength to hold back his chuckle.

Fox, more embarrased, repeated his demand to Falcon's delight.

"HAHAHA! Hey, big nose, you two know each ot..."

Falcon was cut off with a lazer blast to the face. It was fortunate that Fox had not raised its power too high, as Falcon was only drawn back, complying with his demand unvoluntarily. He grabbed his face.

"..........You two.....Im gonna beat you two so damn hard...."
