Chapter 14: Face-Off
Fox, Falco, Wolf and Alma were staring at each other sternly, like if possessed by someone or something. Wolf was staring at Fox's eyes. Fox was staring back. Falco drew a grin as his sister blushed. Suddenly…
An explosion almost hit them as the ground rumbled. "No time to explain! We've got to get OUT!" Wolf yelled as everyone nodded except Fox. He didn't trust Wolf. But he knew he had no other choice.
They started to run, but froze in their tracks as eight more guards surrounded them. "Darn it! They got us!" Falco yelled as he took out his blaster, but a guard shot at the gun, therefore sending it away to a nearby river. "NO!" Falco yelled as he stared at his blaster as it sunk into the water.
"Anyone got a plan?" Alma asked as everyone stared at their opponents.
"Knocking them out?" Wolf asked reluctantly as Fox made an angry face.
"…Anyone got a plan B?" Alma asked as everyone made confused faces.
Fox nervously replied, "Maybe we should knock them out…"
Alma chuckled. "Oh well." Immediately, they all jumped at their enemies and attacked. Fox jumped in the air, and hit one guard, took out his blaster in a swift move, and fired at two more, taking them out. Alma took out her gun, and fired at three more guards. Wolf delivered a flying kick and hit two more. Suddenly, three more guards appeared, but Falco jumped in, and hit one, but he was then enraptured in a stranglehold by another guard, but he jumped backwards, broke free, and then hit him in the neck, taking him out.
The other guards, terrified, ran away. Fox sighed, and muttered, "That goes to show them." However, Alma gasped as an Army of G-Force 7 soldiers chased after them.
Alma shouted, "We better run, or else we say good-bye to our lives!" Everyone nodded, and started to make a run for it.
Meanwhile, at the space station in Meteo…
"Master, we have gotten reports that Star Fox is in Dinosaur Planet disrupting our operations."
"Is that so? Well, take them out of the picture."
"But, sir! The Chosen Ones have escaped!"
"I know. But it's perfect."
"Why?"
"You will see. Once all the Chosen Ones have gathered, and they unlock the legendary Powers of the Krazoa Knights, I will step in, and take them for myself. I will use them to destroy the Mc Cloud bloodline."
"Why?"
"To avenge my cousin, of course".
"Why?"
"He was a fool, but we were the best of friends in evil conquests. But Mc Cloud had to murder him".
"But Sir, Andross was already dead!"
"So WHAT?! I WILL bring him back to life!"
"Looks like we lost them…" Fox and company were gasping for breath as they had finally evaded the guards. Fox suddenly turned to Wolf, blaster in hand, and aiming at him. "…And just what are YOU doing here?!"
Wolf raised his hand. "… The Wolf you used to know is gone. This is the new Wolf, reborn as a new identity. And, believe me, the least thing I don't want to do is fight you…"
Fox chuckled. "Am I supposed to believe you? Impossible."
Wolf gave a step back. "No, really! I…"
Fox took a step forward. "I've been waiting a long time for this…" He hissed his last word as his blaster was about to fire. Suddenly, a figure stood in front of Fox.
Alma. She didn't have any problems with Wolf. "Stop! This lupine saved my life. He's not bad!"
Fox lowered his weapon. "Can I believe you? And, just what proof do you have to prove he's not a killer anymore?"
"…What she says is true." Wolf walked to Alma's side. "Look, I was just following orders from Andross years ago. I never wanted to do HIS work."
Wolf paused. "…I've had it with my job. All I ever wanted to do was live an honest life. No fighting, nothing! But no- You had to come and ruin my peace! Well, then, have it your way! I'm out of here!"
That did it. Alma stared at him. She looked back at Fox, who grinned as he put his weapon back into his holster. "Yeah, you better get out of here, coward."
That was more than enough for Alma to get angry. She walked to Fox's front, and she raised her hand, and slapped him in the face. "…You have no heart, do you?" She turned and started to follow Wolf.
Falco ran and shouted, "Wait!" Falco turned to Fox. "I'll catch up with you later. I have to find out something. I think she's my sister." With that, Falco ran and started to follow them. Fox was incredibly quiet enough. He stared at the three leave as he started to wonder… Did he really have a heart?
Fox started to walk to a nearby river, where he sat alone. He saw a small stone, which made him think about himself. "If only I hadn't reacted that way… None of this would have happened." He grabbed a river, and threw it into the river. The stone made small ripples as it ran through the water, and sank. Another stone suddenly made more ripples as it followed Fox's stone and sank. Fox slowly turned around, and looked at him in the face.
"…Oh, it's only you." Fox didn't say anything as he turned back and stared at the Planet's sun, which made its way to an eight-hour rest and also made an orange-white sky, beautiful in its wake. Wolf sat at his side, and stared at the Sun.
"I knew you'd go soft on yourself, Fox. I did that just so you could think for yourself." Wolf looked at the crimson-like sky as it slowly turned into black.
"I guess… Maybe I was wrong about yourself. Sorry for my behavior before, it's just that…" Fox made a pause. "I've been having a lot to think about lately. So much has been happening…"
Wolf smiled. "…Same here. I've had a lot on my mind lately."
"Oh, really? I thought the only thought you had was of killing me." Fox chuckled weakly as Wolf made a correcting face.
"Correction, Mc Cloud: I'm not a killer anymore."
"I never said you were a killer."
"But I know you meant it that way." They laughed together as the sky dimmed even more.
"So, you have parents?" Fox was expecting a simple answer, but Wolf's lif was more complex than Wolf imagined.
"No. My father abandoned us when I was born, and Mom was killed when I was around fourteen or so. I can't remember. And you?" Wolf knew it wasn't going to be easy for Fox.
"My mother was killed by a bomb that was meant for Dad. And as for him…" Fox made a pause. "I… I think he's still alive."
"What makes you say that?" Wolf reminisced of his life as an ordinary man with the dream of going to the Corneria Air Force. "I saw him today."
Wolf gasped. "You WHAT?!"
"I did. As crazy as it sounds, I really did. But it won't be easy explaining everything."
Wolf let out a big laugh. "HA! You're crazy, Fox! You must've been thinking about it a LOT, and now, you must be hallucinating!"
"I'm NOT! I even FELT HIM! Look, if you want proof, come with me." Fox was only able to say that because it was the least thing he could do. Besides, Wolf was a mercenary. Well, at least, he USED to be one, and a simple thing like that wouldn't goad him into going with Fox.
"All right, all right, I'll go. But, only because I pity you!" Wolf started to run, and Fox had it.
"Why YOU!" Fox
started to chase Wolf as the lupine laughed out loud, and ran to what looked
like a jungle.
After what seemed to be several minutes of chasing, Fox and Wolf stopped at what looked like gigantic ruins made of stone.
"…What is this place?" They both asked, amazed.
What is this new place? Tune in to the next chapter!
