And I present to you Chapter two. Mission to Mars.



AN: Man, I do not like editing. Amazingly enough, my writer's block is wearing off. For those of you that like Bill, he will be in the plot very soon. I'm not sure if I should keep the third-person point of view or switch to first. Don't you want to see into the mind of Andross? Ugh... demented writings with man crazed over Vixy. I'm not sure if I could do that. *hides under covers* Oh well, I've written worse.



However, two years later, a very different course of events had played out.

"White! Get over here!" A drill sergeant ordered. Immediately, a young child reported to the sergeant's face.

"Sir, yes, sir!" She responded. It was rare to see a girl being trained on a military base on Venom. Often times if they weren't strong enough, emotionally and physically, they would be killed.

"Report to the briefing room at 0600 hours."

"Yes sir!"

She was fully trained at 7 years old, she could fly circles around a Cornerian arwing. Venom was training and prepping all they could for a full scale attack on Corneria 10 years from then. But at the moment, none of that mattered, she simply departed to her small room in the base with her guardian already inside.

"Hey Danny." She said as she closed the metal door. She plopped down in their big chair in their living room.

"Hey Katrina. So what happened today?" The falcon asked somewhat inquisitively. He was flipping a piece of meat for a hamburger.

"Nothing. I just have to report for some meeting tomorrow."

"Really? You know why?"

"No, I don't. Now hand me that burger." She ordered him.

"Now you turn on the TV and I will." She made a fair exchange.

"As in news on Corneria, a recent rumor has been confirmed. Venom, long said to be a quiet, deserted planet, has begun to have a small population of its own. Sources say that most of the population is people who were taken from their homes on other planets by hired mercenaries. In response the planets are starting to take precaution. The president is arranging a meeting tomorrow at Omega, Katina. In other..."

"Huh. Finally. Maybe there's hope after all." Danny told his adopted child. And handed her meal to her. Hope was something hard to come by, and he hadn't had any for the past year.

They both were taken from there home on Fortuna. There was no relation, but as most they were saving enough money to just get a flight to Corneria and start a new life. All of that was interrupted by a hired gang and that took many people from their neighborhood to Venom. They ones who resisted were killed on the spot. No one got the chance to call anyone so nothing could be done. Few people dared to escape because of the fear they would be killed, and the people that did were.

"Well, after you eat, you better get to sleep. It's late and you..." He stopped in mid sentence. She was already asleep and a few bites into her meal. He gave her a light kiss on her forehead and turned off the TV.

The next morning she woke up well slept and in her uniform from last night, in her chair. It was 0533. Luckily for her, the uniform she had on wasn't wrinkled. So, she ran out the door to leave for her first official meeting.

Quickly, she made her way through the twists and turns of the base to her destination. It wasn't that far, but far enough to take some time to get to. Underground bases tend to get a little busy during the morning. She opened the door and sat down as the last person there.

"Since there is no one missing. Let's begin." The General said. Katrina was one of four children present. Apparently she was going to play a major part, because usually she was just given a paper to go by and sent out on a mission.

"Lord Andross wants us to take out future generals in the Cornerian military. He plans on sending kids to live in the area with their own special assignments."

'Killing important generals, they're normal people, they just give orders...' Katrina thought to herself.

"White. You will play the most important role. You are assigned to find and kill the future Commander-in-Chief,"

"Sergeant Pepper."



James- That was even shorter than the last one. What happened to 2,000 words per chapter?

Dream- Um... I would have to say no comment.

James- Well, at least you mentioned Venom this time.

Dream- No duh.

James- *sighs* If you get at least 2,000 words next chapter I'll help you think up a romance.

Dream- Really?!

James- No, because somehow you will twist it into something with Fox.

Dream- But I like Fox!

James- Precisely.

Dream- Ok. Well, I guess that's all for this chapter. I guess there's a lot of room for editing if James is right...

James- And I am correct. You might want to check your grammar as well.

Dream- *sniffles* You meanie! You zombie!

James- For the last time, I am not a zombie. And perhaps you should take a look at your grammar, I KNOW that it can use some—

Dream- You do know that I'm only—

James- Human. I know. Humans tend to have many more flaws compared to animals, or as you call us "furries".

Dream- Shut up. I thought you were supposed to be a gentleman. Now, I hope you enjoyed an unexpected plot twist. I'll probably go up and edit it some.

James- Yes, in the mean time you might wish to comp template (I didn't know that was two words) as to how Andross knows who these generals are. Or perhaps what relation Katrina has to Fox, or—

Dream- You're giving away my plot! Bye-bye everybody.
