Star Fox, its characters, names, etc. all belong to Nintendo. Any stuff that has already had a specific media is not mine! Galaxy Wulf, its characters, trademarks, names, etc. all belong to me.

Notice: This is a PROLOGUE of THC, meaning it happened before the events of Two Heroes Collide. I've taken the first few parts of my story from the official Star Fox manga entitled "Farewell, Beloved Falco" in the Japanese site of Nintendo. Luckily, there's an English version that you can get at [www.arwinglanding.tk]. Oh, I will temporarily stop Two Heroes Collide: Juniors if I am making this. Don't worry! I think this will only take 15 chapters or less!

HEY! Please make Falco and Ellie a hentai fic!


Anyway, let's begin...


Chapter 7, Hunting Season

     It has already been a week since Falco landed into Arctican. He has already decided to stay after his Arwing was fixed days ago. Now, a new day arises, and it seems to be a beautiful day for the team. Meanwhile, inside Ice Paladin Condominium at Arctican City…

     A guy was taking a shower just this morning inside his bathroom, a very common morning ritual. Just then, the communicator on the table rang. The noise of the shower ceased, and the bathroom door opened. A slightly robust wolf with a towel strapped around his waist came out, answering his message.

     "Who's this?" he answered.

     "It's me. Have you already located the target yet?"

     "Indeed. I was able to keep track on him a few days ago."

     "Strange… Why would he be in that unidentified planet away from Lylat?"

     "Arctican is the name of this planet, sir. After I eavesdropped to his recent activities, it seems that he came here accidentally."

     "Oh, I see… Anyway, where's your location in that planet Arctican?"

     "Inside a condo. I'm just waiting for your orders."

     "Go ahead. Make your move to him now! By the way, where are the other two wolves?"

     "I'll make contact to them, telling them to act now."

     "Good. Remember, I don't want you or your group to fail this mission. His head will bring you all more fortune after you give him to me. I'll give you a reward twice what I paid for you a week ago. However…"

     "However what… sir?"

     "I warn you… If you fail this mission, don't let your faces be seen here at Venom! Or else, you three will be my guinea pigs for my bio-experiment!"

     "Don't worry, sir! I'll make sure we won't fail…"

     "Very well… Carry on the mission as planned. Remember, it's him or you three!"

     "I assure you, sir! He won't get a chance to escape once we've cornered him! We will surely capture…

     Falco Lombardi!"

     The voice from the communicator logged off. The wolf pushed a button to it and waited for a while. He then talked to it again after somebody answered his call.

     "Seraphy," he spoke out, "this is Scythe. Call Samson, our boss has already given the word. We must act now. I'll meet you three at Square Frosty. The Tri-Wolves Hunters will hunt the blue prey later, right at the Square." He clicked a button, and then gave a grin, erotic-like look.

     Before leaving, he went inside his room. Scythe, as what he refers himself, looked at the mirror. He then grabbed his outfit and gear, and growled like an animal.

     The voice is somewhat very familiar. What would Falco's fate be, not knowing that enemies from Lylat are after him? However, one must wonder – Why? Meanwhile, Falco, Ellie, and Garou where jogging at the Square Frosty. Being inside the icy planet days ago, he has already created a habit… a habit that led the enemy to his location.

     "Man! This is exercise!" Falco gleefully shouted as he raises his arms out while running. He wears a white undershirt and shorts with socks and running shoes.

     "Keep it up, Falco!" Ellie smiled with the avian. "You'll be in a better shape if you do a lot of this!" She's wearing a sleeveless shirt with the stomach shown and very short pants. There's a matching long socks and stepping shoes with it.

     Garou, who likes to exercise around wearing only shorts and sandals, grinned, "Of course, you wouldn't be as hunky as me, right?!"

     "Dream on, Garou!" Falco laughed.

     After running around the seemingly large open park for two times, the three decided to take a break. They headed to the center of the Square. They decided to rest for a while.

     While sitting there, Falco grabbed his canteen and drunk it all out because of the sweat he gained from running around the sun. Even for a cold planet, it seems that the ice didn't affect the heat in the atmosphere, making it all warm. Garou breathed out ice to create a snowball that he placed on his chest, making him cool.

     Ellie, on the other hand, wanted something for her tummy. She saw a nice stand that sells ice cream. (Strangely, ice creams are still being eaten at the cold places.) She pointed it out and urged that the two should also buy.

     "Guys… Let's get some ice cream! I know that the both of you are already sweating those perspiration out like a faucet, so try some ice cream to get some chill!"

     "Ellie's right!" Falco commented as he takes off his undershirt. "Man, the sun is scorching me! It sounds ridiculous! A cold planet being munched by heat! I wonder if the ice here doesn't melts…"

     Garou laughed and explained, "The atmosphere is basically the same as a usual planet. However, the planet's own biological system allows the ice around to not melt!"

     Falco, who didn't understand a thing to what Garou said, moaned, "Whatever! Come on, let's grab some ninety-nine!" (You didn't get what Garou said, didn't you? Well, check it at the most bottom part to re-explain it! It's quite long!)

     Ellie smiled as the two machos (or one, or… whatever!) came near and offered a few DL to spend. She looked at the different flavors and thought really perky.

     "Hmm… I wonder if I should choose Vanilla… What about Chocolate… or maybe Strawberry! Oh darn! It's so hard to choose! Might as well choose my favorite color! I would like a Strawberry Ice Cream, please!"

     "Mine's a Cookies and Cream!" Garou ordered.

     "Oh, and Yours Truly is Strawberry!" Falco grinned.

     They placed up their money and the vendor gave them their sherbets. The three sat down back at the bench and enjoyed their chilly meal.

     However, without their consent, somebody is watching them. From the crowd of happy people, they didn't realize that they are being monitored.

     "Those three are always in a happy situation." A female voice gruffly proclaimed. "Are they really like that?"

     "And that muscular wolf…" a tough-sounding voice grudged. "Hmm… he's full of beef, but by the way he looks, he couldn't bent a piece of metal!"

     "You two... get moving!" Scythe ordered. "We need to oust this people if we need to get a clear shot at them, especially at Falco!"

     "Right!"

     The three placed a bomb on each of the statues on where they are standing on. When everything's set, the three moved away and suddenly, a big bang erupted. Three explosions, mainly from the bombs, burst out.

     People were panicking all around. There were shouts and screams, trying to leave the place. Garou, Ellie, and Falco, however, didn't lose their nerves. They believe someone is around here somewhere.

     "Hmm… it seems that somebody knew we are here…" Garou shrugged.

     "Let's check the field where the explosion occurred." Falco assumed. "We might something there."

     The three headed to the place where the explosion happened. When they got there, the thick smoke prevented them from seeing anything.

     "Leave this to me!" Ellie smiled. "I'll focus my chi to clear this area."

     "What is she going to do?" Falco asked with no idea.

     "Oh just look!" Garou grinned.

     Ellie cleared her mind as she inhales and exhales normally. Suddenly, condensation occurred to her palms, releasing it to the haze. With her mind, she was able to create a mist that cleared the smoke.

     "Wow!" Falco giggled because it's his first time seeing that move.

     "Heh! I've done that plenty of times!" she waved out.

     As the black air fades, they saw no casualty. No citizen was hurt during the explosion.

     "Well, this is a good sign!" Falco asserted. "At least no one got hurt!"

     Suddenly, a voice echoed out to the field. The voice is a tremor, howling towards them.

     "A good sign, you say? Well, for you, it's a bad sign 'cause you'll be in a lot of pain afterwards!"

     Three figures appeared in front of them. A male wolf is at the center, wearing a somehow resemblance of a Venomian soldier's suit. To the left of him is a she-wolf, wearing a female fighter of the Venom Amazon Fatales. The last is a large male wolf, beefy and wearing short pants not extending his thighs and with rips. Scars are found on his back and he seems to be a hunk of strength.

     "My name is Scythe, a well-trained soldier of the Venom Force." the alpha wolf posed.

     "I am Seraphy, known as the Angel of Death in the planet of Venom." the red, feminine lupine positioned.

     "And I am Samson, a well-built soldier known for disarming Cornerian tanks and the Landmaster in Venom!" he flexed as he introduces himself.

     Scythe again centered up and introduced, "We are the Tri-Wolves Hunters, and we have been searching here for Falco! You see, there's a large bounty waiting for us after we bring him back! Don't worry, we only want him, so the two of you could go away!"

     "Hmph! What makes you think we'll leave our friend alone?!" Ellie angrily exclaimed as she crunches her knuckles.

     "Besides, we want the fun Falco is going to have!" Garou grinned.

     "Hell…" Falco shouted. "I thought Andross is interested in Fox? Now he's after me!"

     "Oh no…" Scythe answered as he waved his head. "Lord Andross didn't send us here!"

     "Wha?! Then who?"

     "It's none of your business! Now, since I know you won't come along easily and your pals are not going to leave, what are you waiting for? I'm going to let you feel my knuckles!"

     The three charged against the heroes. Falco, however, still thinks of who sent those bounty hunters there. Who placed a price over his head?


The Arctican Explanation (and other Terran theories)

Arctican has an atmosphere almost the same as your average life-supporting atmosphere: it has ozone layer, Hydrogen, etc. However, Arctican has a special layer called Convection Layer that prevents cold from getting outside the planet.

Another question, how come ice and snow doesn't melt in Arctican? Well, as what Garou stated, the biological system of the planet never allows ice to melt even if it's darn so hot. The ground surface is actually cold, because the core of Arctican is ice. Take note that this is a fan fiction, so anything can happen! There you go, you scientifically-closed readers who never ever appreciated fantasy on a fiction!

Oh yeah, it's really nothing if a male walks around wearing only his brief around the planets Arctican, Willow, and Pyron. For Arctican, a male who shows his body means he's strong. This is usually seen in ice wolves, which love to show their bodies, for packs or groups, whom usually the leader likes to show his position by his body, or by beefy people who like to show off. Soldiers or young militaries also show their bodies with battle scars or prints. For the last two planets I mentioned, it's the ethnic suit of the male. You see, when they were once not yet modern, male only wears a loincloth and some prints or scars! In fact, many of the planets inhabitants still practice it!

One last thing, ninety-nine is another term for ice cream! Also, Garou hasn't pierced his nipples yet here at Momento! (Just for the curious!) He got his nipples pierced a year after he joined the gang. Wulf accompanied him to the Piercing Clinic. In fact, Garou offered him to have a nipple piercing but Wulf disagreed, avoiding any body-piercing at all!
