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 30
chapters or less!
Sorry for the delay! Classes are back!
Chapter 20, Cold War
Beowulfe, Anna, and Scythe discovered where the captives are held. They released their captured friends: Garou, Frigi, Cold, and Glacier. However, they encountered for their first time the ice monsters. Scythe couldn't fight however, since one of them is Samson, his friend. What will happen next?
"You know," Harold laughed. "I really don't want to waste my own flesh and blood. I don't really want to hurt you, Falco."
"Yeah well, save it, old-timer," Falco grunted. "I'm not your freaking son anymore! No, you're not my pops anymore!"
"What's gotten into you, Mr. Lombardi?" Ellie asked. "Falco told me that you were such a loving person. How come you could do this to him?!"
"You got it all wrong," Harold explained while lighting a cigarette. "I was the one hoping for him! I hoped that Falco would assist me in my plans for the future. However, he met Fox and then joined into Star Fox."
"You're using the daddy-sonny time we have in order for me to follow your ass?" Falco yelled. "So… so everything what we've been together when I was young was just a…"
"You're getting it all wrong!" Harold shouted. "But that's all in the past now. I have plans for myself now. I plan to divorce your mom and marry Garnet then fly away from this stupid world."
"Damn you!" Falco shouted. He then rushed towards Harold for a punch. "Let's take this mano a mano!"
However, Harold just sighed. He then picked up a small syringe from his pocket and threw it towards Falco. The blue bird noticed it coming, but he realized it didn't hit him.
"Ya missed, cross eye!" Falco laughed.
"Was I aiming at you?" Harold ironically replied. "Just watch."
The door from the back opens. A hawk enters with guns, shouting, "Sir, are you all right?" The syringe hit him at the chest, causing him to lie down.
"You… what did you do that for?" Ellie wondered with fear.
"He wanted to help me, right?" Harold grinned. "Well, this is the way he's going to help me a lot!"
The hawk slowly stepped up. He heavily breathes, and chilly breath is coming out from his mouth. He yelled, and his body starts to change. His feathers turned white, and his arms turned into talons. Wings grew from his back, and his size starts to grow. His muscles build up, and his senses started to change. He now looks like a white avian monster, capable on firing ice. The monster threw the syringe away, and growled loudly.
"He's going to help a lot!" Harold laughed. "He evolved! That ice griffin shall destroy you!"
"But how did you turned him into that without the formula?!" Ellie asked while running away.
"Simple. The syringe injected to his heart released the chemicals into the heart. Those chemicals were sent into the bloodstream, and transformation slowly occurs! Aren't I a genius?!"
"That was plainly horrific!" Falco yelled. "How could you do that to him?!"
Harold walked towards the monster's side, and then laughed, "I told you, he wanted to help me, and this is the best way he can. Oh, and I believe your friends are having the same problems like this one!"
Ellie gasped. "Don't tell me you changed my friends into…"
"No. But they are facing one!" Harold laughed. "Now freeze them to death, winter griffin!" The griffin growled as he breathes out a massive ice gas.
"Ahh!" Falco shouted as he runs away from the fire line. "Get out Ellie! Even if you're an ice wolf, you might get frozen stiff!"
"Leave this to me…" she spoke as she concentrates on something. "There is a water line below this floor. I can freeze them telekinetically and send them up." She then raises her finger, creating an ice wall from the floor. It covered the two from the blast.
"Whoa!" Falco reacted. "Neat!"
"Impressive," Harold nodded, "but remember, the things you did and will do can be done by my creations." He then snapped his fingers, and the griffin closed his eyes.
The wall cracked into pieces, creating ice thorns. They were then darted towards Falco and Ellie.
"I'll try to stop them!" she yelled as she tries to control the ice darts away from them. However, the ice griffin's psychic control is stronger than her, making her lose control.
"Watch out!" Falco shouted as he grabs Ellie, covering her from the ice shards. His back received the ice needles as if there where large pins stabbing his back. His jacket started to stain in red. He is bleeding!
"Falco!" Ellie shouted as she embraces the bird. "Please don't!"
"I… I love… you…" Falco spoke in a coarse and soft manner. His eyes were slowly closing, and his body starts to get bloody.
"My poor son," Harold nodded. "However, he must face the consequences. He defied me, and therefore he must be punished."
Meanwhile, back at the lab…
"Fire Wall!" Beowulfe shouted as flames cover the six of them. "You guys otta be quick about what you're doing there!"
"What are you doing?" Anna asked while trying to break the ice that froze Scythe.
"I'm trying to create a formula that will reverse the effects of the evolution," Cold explained as he concocts some chemicals he found in the lab along with some materials at the iced floor. "We have to cure them before we get killed!"
"Hurry up!" Garou growled as he breathes ice against the door, trying o stop the ice fox and the ice Samson to enter. "I can't keep this up! Beowulfe, can you still hold on the fire any longer?"
"I'm afraid I can't!" Beowulfe panted. "I'm getting weak…"
"S… sa… sam… sonnn…" Scythe spoke out softly while having a chill.
"Relax Scythe," Glacier reassured him. "We'll bring Sam back!"
Beowulfe suddenly fainted, and the fire instantly dispersed. Garou caught the red wolf before as soon as he lands on the floor. However, their defenses fell down, and the two ice monsters growled as they forced their way in.
"What are we going to do?" Frigi wondered in fear.
"Let's just hope this concoction finishes before we're Popsicle sticks," Cold answered blankly.
