TWO HEROES COLLIDE, EPISODE 7: GENETIC FOX

-----------------------------------------------

What evil plot does Volgar carved now to Fox? What happened to Ruby? Strange as it is, a victim of being a GE soldier is like a death sentence...

-----------------------------------------------

CHAPTER TWO!!! "The Captives' Transformation"

-----------------------------------------------

Ruby was floating in a midst of emptiness.

"Where am I?" she wondered. She was hovering like it was in a dark space. "Please answer me!" she yelled.

Suddenly, in the empty shadows, an echo was heard.

"My dear gem... Ruby..."

"Who are you?"

"You were young when we first saw you..."

"Please, tell me who you are!"

"You were taken away from us by Volgar..."

"Mom... Dad... NO!!!"

"Please, Ruby, wake up from your mistakes! For your love one..."

"Wait!!! Mom!!! Dad!!!"

"We love you, our dear gem..."

"NO!!!" Ruby yelled as she saw the light disappearing. She was then flashed in her face, the glimmering light from the ceiling.

"Ruby!" Wolf sweated as he held her hand, "Thank goodness you're okay!"

"Huh? Where am I?" Ruby wondered in confusion.

"You're back in Space Den. You just woke up from your dream saying 'NO!!!'" Lupina gruffed.

"Wh-what happened at the restaurant?" Ruby whimpered as she held Wolf's hands tightly.

"Well," Wolf spoke, "after doing that powerful kick to Elea, you fainted in front of me. My Wolfen can take you to the hospital, but it is too far. That's why I headed here..."

Wulf, Vulpin, and Bark entered the room. The eye-glassed dog was holding some papers while the lupine inserted a disc to a computer.

"Here are the results from the scans!" Bark announced, "Oh, you're finally awake, Ruby!"

"Tee hee! Did you sleep well, Ruby-chan?" Vulpin sweetly greeted the hospitalized wolf.

"Thanks..." Ruby smiled, "Well at least waking up, I got some good news!"

Wulf smiled at her as he opened the monitor. "Okay, everyone!" he lectured, "According to the tests and scans Bark made, we were able to determine what happened to Ruby."

A picture was shown with some brain, cerebral transmissions, and stuff. Wulf continued, "We figured that Ruby has still that Psychic Link in her brain. Every time she gets near to a GE soldier, her brain will go terminal and starts functioning into a GE soldier again."

"However," the lupine concluded, "there are ways to cure this. One is to let her avoid any other contacts to GE soldiers, and two is to let her fight it."

Garou quoted after thinking deeply, "I think number two is easier than number one."

"Yeah," Ruby sighed, "but don't worry! I'll fight it!"

Back to the skies of Corneria, Lylat

Elea's fighter was slowly hovering down the cumulus clouds. She was avoiding to be caught. As she looked keenly, she was looking for the StarFox team.

"Any sign of them yet." Volgar whisked the monitor.

"None, sir..." Elea reported, "Are you sure they are here?"

"Of course I am!" Volgar raged out, "Do you question me?!"

Elea suddenly whimpered, "Uh! No, sir!"

She slowly glided down to the tall buildings with her Stealth Shields on. As she swiftly journeyed the lush city, she saw what could be her target.

A large mother ship was parked at a large building. There also five fighters parked on the side. It looks like the mother ship was out for repairs. That's why the fighters are out of the hangar.

"Target found!" Elea commenced as she quietly dashed down the port. She knew that Fox has a keen sense of hearing and can hear a calibrating engine close to him.

As she landed silently, she stealthily dashed to Fox's Arwing. It's very obvious to spot, though, because of the emblem of "StarFox" and his name, "McCloud" plated beside it. Also, his ship seems to be unique, for it has special Plasma Cannons from his Terran friends.

She silently boarded that Arwing, grabbed her Ionic Driver and installed something to the ship. She was able to get off, but she then knocked off a toolbox, grabbing the slightest attention of the gang.

"Huh? What was that?" Falco yawned after napping on a beach chair.

"What?" Skippy grinned, "I didn't hear anything!"

"Yeah! The wind blew that tool box, nothing more!" Fox smiled.

Then, a rabbit followed by a blue dog entered the port.

"Hello, everyone! I want you to meet Rey Starker! He's going to help you on the repairs of Great Fox!" Peppy greeted the group.

"Nice to meet you, StarFox!" Rey stepped in shyly.

Elea was really lucky. That old hare and a rookie pilot took her attention, having the chance to escape. She quickly rode on her stealthed fighter and instantly took off and away.

"Mission complete, sir!" Elea saluted at the monitor.

"Good! Now for the next step..." Volgar announced.

Fox was talking to Rey about his new job. "So, what do you feel being in the Cornerian Defense Squad?"

"Well, I kind of feel nervous at the start," Rey answered, "but I put in my mind that I have a family to feed and hopes to fulfill, that's why I was lucky! In fact, in the training area, I did earn a few medals!"

"Great!" Fox praised. But then, his monitor in his ArwingZero (His special Arwing) beeped. He quickly opened it and it was a voice message. It came from Pepper.

"General?!"

"StarFox! Something came up!"

"But why are you calling me in my Arwing?"

"I'll tell it to you later! Right now, I want you and a fellow pilot to come here to this coordinates at Corneria. Something happened there and I want the two of you to investigate it ALONE!"

"Alone?!"

"Don't question me! It's very important! I'll log off!"

"What the hell..." Fox muttered.

"Wow, Pepper has finally learned to use power..." Falco taunted, "Come on, Fox! Let's go so we can finish it quickly!"

"Uh..." Rey halted Fox, "Can I go instead of Falco?"

"What?! The way that mission sounds, it's too dangerous!" Falco yelled at the dog.

"But but but!!!!!"

"Falco, I think he should go with me! Maybe he needs some further experience, so I'll take him along!" Fox smiled.

"But it's dangerous!" Peppy queued.

"Don't worry! If things get screwy, we'll give a distress call!" Fox reassured them.

"Thanks for trusting me!" Rey winkled.

The two rode their Arwings and went forth to their destination.

Peppy was in a deep thought. "Something is not right here..." he pictured. He grabbed his comm and contacted Pepper.

Meanwhile, back at the two fighters...

"So Rey, you have kids?" Fox asked with a smile. Rey just smiled as he nodded.

"Two, a boy and a girl..." Rey answered as he looked to his monitor, "Hey! Look! We're here!"

"Oh yeah!" Fox replied. The two Arwings blitzed to the scene. It was a strange floating island with destroyed fighters and flying debris.

"Wonder what could it be..." Rey wondered as he examined, "Come on! Let's take a closer look!"

Fox slowly followed the dog. But then, as he looked to the rear, a sudden brigade of enemy fighters appeared.

"We have received orders from Volgar. Surrender now!" one of the pilots, most likely a GE soldier, implied.

"Damn! Hell we won't!!!" Rey yelled out. He charged toward the fighters who are trapping Fox.

"No! Rey, DON'T!!!" Fox shouted, but the canine ignored him. He was focused in saving Fox.

But then, a shockwave attack stumbled Rey's Arwing, knocking it off and making it spin. Fox shouted to the top of his voice, "NOOOO!!!!!!" as he sees it fling away.

With anger, he rushed to the pilots and gone berserk. He fired out volley of lasers but instead, he met the same fate.

Back at the port...

"OH NO! Are you sure, Pepper?" Peppy answered, "You didn't order them anything?!"

"Yes! You better call them back!" Pepper reassured him.

Falco walked towards Peppy. With doubt in mind, he said, "So, was that a fake order?"

"Yes..." Peppy lowly replied.

"I still can't get any answer from his or Rey's Arwing!!!" Skippy yelled out with worries.

"What?!" Peppy yelled, "We must do something! Hey! Where the hell is Wolf?!"

Falco nodded and replied, "In Terra he..." Then something hit him, "WAIT A SEC!" he whimpered, "Maybe GalaxyWulf can help us out! Let's contact 'em!"

The three immediately called out the Terran heroes.

Now, at the floating island-fortress...

Fox woke up on a metal floor. He was surrounded by female soldiers of different species, but by the way they act, it seems that they follow one boss.

He slowly got up as the feme fatales observed his move keenly. One wrong step, and it's Spin Drive Smasher for him. These dolls are trained for torture, espionage, and a lot more.

Then, a shrouded, canine-like figure approached him at a short distance. Beside him is another soldier. A female eagle. Beautiful, but deadly. The canine-man spoke to him, "Ah, McCloud! How nice of you to join us!"

"Volgar!" Fox replied firmly, "I should have known! What are you up to this time?!"

Volgar grinned from the shadows, "Well, McCloud, are you such in a hurry? Aren't you going ask where your companion is?"

"WHAT?!" Fox shouted, "Where's Rey?!" He slightly charged forward but was halted by the soldiers surrounding him.

"Oh, Rey is it? Well then, come here Rey!" Volgar smiled demonically, "Someone likes to see you!"

Then, a robust figure of a male dog appeared from a door, looking very serious. He has a strange outfit. He wears the uniform of a male GE soldier. As he appears in front of Fox, it was Rey, only this time, his muscles slightly grew, his height slightly increased, and he is different.

"Wh-what?!" Fox shouted, "You've Genetically Enhanced him?! How could you?!"

"Unit Rey, ready to report sir!" Rey saluted to Volgar, "Shall I finish him off, sir?"

"No... Not yet! I have something special to tell him!" Volgar ordered.

"Damn you!" Fox reacted to the shrouded canine. He then grinned and smiled, "Humph! Even when up-close and personal, I can't still see what type creature you are!" He then clenched his fists as if he was ready to fight, stating, "I'm glad you weren't able to GE Wulf!"

"Hmm... I can see now that you understood my plan!" Volgar replied, "However, your question..."

Volgar slowly walked around him, talking, "He has accumulated the Anatyde in his blood due to that accident. Too bad! If Rufus hadn't gone personal, he would be joining us right now, finishing you off!" He then turns around and faced Fox as he grasped his neck, still cloaked in the darkness. "But you aren't! Prepare to join the soldiers, McCloud!" he shook as he threw Fox down.

Fox tried to get up, but he was knocked at the head by Rey, making him unconscious.

"Sir, what shall I do with him?" Rey asked the master.

"Put him in the 'special' GE Capsule..." Volgar commanded, "We will begin the experiment away."

[AUTHOR'S NOTE: The GE Capsule is where a person is placed as s/he undergoes GEE (Genetic Enhancement Experimentation). However, unlike any normal capsules, Volgar has a different plan for Fox.]

Meanwhile...

"Where am I?" in the darkness a voice whispered. It was Fox, kneeling after like he was pushed.

As he stood up, someone pushed him down the ground again. As Fox looked up, it was Wulf.

"Wulf?! What are you doing?" he yelled out.

"What am I doing?!" Wulf shouted, "Hah! I'm doing what suits you!" Then, behind Wulf, his team members appeared.

"You deserve to be punished!" he once again shouted, "Because you don't deserve to be the leader of StarFox!!! Guys, let's get him!"

Wulf charged his Arm Cannon and aimed it at Fox. At the same time, Lupina placed her hands for the "Hadouken" stance, Eagle flapped his wings, Garou inhaled for some air, Vulpin created fireballs on his hands, and Bark charged his Alpha Buster.

As Wulf fires it, Lupina's Hadouken, Eagle's Whirlwind, Garou's Ice Breathe, Vulpin's Fireballs, and Bark's Shock Orb fused with Wulf's Plasma Shot and transformed into a large ray that knocked Fox out, who was unable to evade it.

He cried in pain as it blasted him. Then, as he looked to his back, it was Wulf, Peppy, Skippy, and Falco.

"Guys!" he yelled as he tried to stand up. But then, Wolf kicked him out followed by Falco nailing his foot to Fox's head. His body hurts after what GalaxyWulf has done to him, but it becomes sorer than earlier.

In pain, Fox asked, "Why? Why are you doing this?"

"Because we hate you!" Skippy blathered, "You don't deserve to be our leader!"

"You're such a kid! James was wrong to be the leader!" Peppy shouted, "We should've changed Wolf to a leader as soon as he joined us!"

Then, two laser beams stabbed Fox. One to the right arm and one to the left leg. It was Pepper and strangely, James!

"I was wrong to put you in StarFox!" Pepper yelled.

"I am ultimately disappointed, no, DISGRACED to see you being a leader!" James scolded the fox.

"WHAT?! Everyone is angry at me because I am the leader of StarFox! Why?!" Fox shouted out.

He ended up being blasted on his shoulders, as everyone appeared in front of him.

"You know why?" they all said chorally, "Because we..."

"HATE YOU!!!"

That stabbed Fox's heart. He realized his friends were not used to be. He was betrayed. He was faked. But then, as those figures disappear, a tall canine appeared. He helped Fox get up, and gave him some medicine.

"V-Volgar?!" Fox was surprised to see him.

"Don't worry! I'm here to help you!" Volgar reassured him, "I am your true friend! Trust me! I was constantly fighting them because I wanted to save you!"

"Really?" Fox whimpered.

"Yes... Indeed..." Volgar smiled, "We will finish those who harmed you! We will..."

That strange distortion disappeared... It was Fox's mind, being manipulated by Volgar during the transformation.

"Experiment finished... Unloading the patient..." the computer confirmed as the naked Fox slowly stood up.

Fox has really been transformed. His body grew. His muscles were strengthened. His senses became more accurate.

"Ahh! Fox! Good day!" Volgar greeted the newborn Fox.

"Unit Fox ready, sir! Please, tell me what do you wish!" Fox implied with a salute.

"Of course!" Volgar grinned, "Elea, give him a uniform!"

"Yes sir!" Elea answered. But strangely, as she left the two, she felt something strange. Was it fear, angst, or pain?

Volgar then faced Fox. He grinned evilly, "Now, here is your first mission..."

What happened to Fox? Oh no! He's now a bad guy! What is his first mission for Volgar? What did Elea felt? What will our heroes do? The let's go to chapter 3!
