Ok, this is my third fic on StarFox so be happy! I hope you like it if you liked my other ones. Let's just start, shall we? I DO NOT OWN STAR FOX! NINTENDO DOSE SO DON'T COME COMPLAINING TO ME ABOUT SOME OF THE GAME PROBLEMS!

I ran as fast as I could down the hall to were the crystal lay. I keep hearing the screams of the innocent, crying for help, but I can't go back and help. I can smell the faint metallic scent of blood around me and on me. How could they? Killing my mentor with one foul swoop? I can tell I'm almost there.
I don't understand what's so important about the jewel that lies in this temple per say, but whatever it is, they want it, they want it a lot. I want to stop them more than protecting the jewel but that's all I can do, that's all I can do. I finally have made it here, running towards it, I fell a great energy raining from it. But why, I can not say.
From the temple, I hear the footsteps of the enemy coming closer then ever before. I can see his ugly face now and his uniform that is drenched in blood. Who's blood, I can not tell from the light of the torches that surrounding this room. Then, I can see the worst, a big spear going for my forehead, that's when I remember the spear I had in the back of me. But it is too late, I couldn't save anyone then with it and now I can not save myself. But, I still have a chance as I reach out and pull out the staff to deface the weapon. Soon, I see the spear, inches from the tip of my staff, turn to dust.
As I begin to open my eyes, I see everything being turned to dust around me, and the jewel, making me drop my staff and taking me in, into a dark abyss for all of time.

Sighing, Krystal whipped away her sweat and began setting up camp. She had worked hard to get this far up and she certainly wasn't going to come down and sleep all day. It was hard being an archeologist in today's time. Things were easy transport, yes, but finding them was another story. By now, buildings and junk were now burying the artifacts and making it impossible to reach them which made it impossible to get them. But if what she heard was right, some where on this mountain, there laid a temple of a lost civilization just waiting to be found.
Although it seemed odd to her why there was only one building of this civilization still existing, she had no clue but if it did exist, then that might mean that all of history would have to be re-written. True, it did seem like more work then what she was doing now but it was a challenge that if you could face, you would be remembered throughout history.
Krystal never thought that she would really end up as what she was now. But, that all changed when she met a guy in college that she just couldn't let go. She still wanted to impress him, so that's why she was what she is now. As she made her way to get some twigs for a fire, she noticed something out of the ordinary.
"What's this? Odd, it looks like an old staff. Probably 1000 years old, an artifact like this would have been covered up by now. I wonder," Krystal thought out loud as she shifted her gaze from the staff to the ground where she found it. Almost seconds after, she dropped to her knees and began to dig. If the staff was there, maybe there might be something like a grave marker or a skeleton there. After pushing away about an inch of dirt, a hole about an inch wide appeared. At this point, curiosity had token over and she began to peer into the hole. And what she saw, she would never forget.
