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 20 chapters or less!

Sorry for the delay! Classes are back!


Chapter 16, Preparation

     Falco woke up after a tiring night. They fixed the whole Glacier the whole evening, and it was nearly midnight when they finished it. Thanks to Beowulfe, they were able to fix the mother ship for the rescue.

     "Ahh!!! What a fine day!" Falco yawned. He then heads to the bathroom, looking at the day with a sigh. "Today will be the day. Dad, I mean Harold, it's time to kick your ass!"

     After doing his musings, he went out from his quarters, and walked down to the mess hall. As he strides down the hall, he smells a tantalizing aroma from the kitchen, tempting him to head there. As he arrives to the place, he suddenly got surprised from the big buffet at the table.

     "W-what's all these for?" the avian shrieked with his agape mouth. "These mouth-watering, saliva-dripping, mouth-tenderizing foods are too much for the rest of us!"

     "Oh, we're not going to eat them all, silly!" Ellie smiled as she passes from the back of the bird. "Anyway, good morning to everyone, especially you!" She then kisses him to the cheek, making him turn red.

     "Oh Falco, we aren't going to eat 'em all!" Anna answered back as she delivers another plateful of smorgasbord. "We'll be having a KABOOM after we rescue onii-chan and the others! That's why I'm already preparing some meal for them!"

     "The only thing I worry is the food." Beowulfe grinned as he plucks vegetables from the soup using chopsticks. "I hope they don't spoil as soon as we grab baka-Garou and your friends out of there."

     As Falco sat beside Scythe and Ellie, he noticed the scarred-wolf using both of his eyes again.

     "So your left eye's okay?" Falco asked, grabbing meat for his mashed potatoes.

     "Yep," he replied. "But this scar will still bear a mark for me."

     "Oh guys, just keep a positive mind, okay?" Anna argued. "We don't want bad luck to come before us!"

     "Gee, you sound pretty optimistic today." Ellie grinned.

     "But that's better, don't you think?" Beowulfe commented while eating. "Isn't it better for an optimist to be wrong than right but a pessimist."

     "Where'd I heard that before? Hmm…" Scythe added.

     "Let's just hope we will get those scientific freaks down fast!" Falco concluded. "I don't like to think what he'll do to Garou, Frigi, Glacier, and Cold. He might turn them into…"

     "I won't let him!" Scythe shouted. "I won't let him do the same thing to your friends! I don't want them to end up like Samson, a cold monster…"

     "Scythe…"

     Meanwhile, back at the flagship of Harold Lombardi, his crew of scientists have been preparing for some experiment. Using their weak soldiers, they have been creating deadly monsters using what he stole from Falco's mother: the formula.

     "Another experiment done!" Harold smiled. "I really sometimes impress myself." A white lion stepped out, now resembling a chimera, a large ferocious lion.

     "Sir," Garnet asked, "when are we going to put our ice wolves to the evolver?"

     "Don't be hasty, my sweet Garnet," he grinned. "I want Falco to be here when I deliver my experiment to those captives. I want them then to feed from my son!"

     Garnet smiled, and then approached the scientist. "But sir, when will you set the annulment of your marriage to your wife? I'm almost becoming impatient, doctor…" she purred.

     "My Garnet, don't worry!" he smirked. "Once I get my hands on the dough, we'll be having a good time before you know it!"

     Later that day, back at The Glacier, the group is almost prepared for the launch. Wanting to deliver a powerful strike to the enemy, they equipped themselves with powerful weapons as well as their vehicles.

     Falco noticed Anna talking to someone on her communicator. Wondering who it is, he asked her about it.

     "Who did you called?" he wondered.

     "Oh, it's Gen. Anita!" she smiled. "She's one of the generals of Terra, and yeah, she's the leader of Arctican!"

     "Who's she again?"

     "General Anita Alexix!"

     "That's a good idea." Ellie replied. "They'll cover for us as soon as we got there."

     "Hehehe… they're going to taste my burning fury!" Beowulfe grinned as he creates a small fireball from his hand.

     "I'll get Harold and revenge my friends," Scythe groaned. "He'll be sorry that he crossed the hunters."

     "And I'm going to make sure his face will need a face lift after I deal with his face!" Falco grinned.

     "Don't get too hasty, guys! We'll get there!" Ellie smiled. She then pushes a button, making the whole ship run its engines.

     "Anti-grav Thrusters all running! Anatyde Core on line!" Anna commenced. "Commencing launch!"

     The Glacier slowly moves forward, gradually rising from the ground. Soon afterwards, they're airborne, and with a push of a button, they made a powerful thrust, reaching the space altitude.

     "All right! We're back at space!" Falco cheered. "Now we're ready for him!"

     "There's his ship!" Scythe pointed. "Are we heading there yet?"

     "All coordinates locked on," Ellie reported. "Let's be careful though. They have fighters."

     "Our weapons will handle them," Anna smiled. "We'll hatch into their docks at no time!"

     The five looked at the large ship at their monitor. They will now soon face their greatest enemy yet.
