Author's Note: For my return to Fanfiction.Net since a long time, I have
decided to write this fic. However, it's an unusual one. Despite that the
summary says that this is a Star Fox/Transformers crossover, it is MAINLY
focussed on Star Fox. Furthermore, I have seriously changed the
Transformers, too fit in more with the Star Fox universe. Here are the
major changes:
-The Decepticons and Autobots are now called by their Japanese names (Destrons and Cybertronians), and there's a large chance the Autobots will NOT appear in this fic.
-Instead of being cybernetic creatures from one planet, the Transformers are beings from all over the universe (and they're mostly animals), and the Transformers themselves are mainly exosuits for the organic beings.
-Since I'm using Transformers from all universes, it's safe to say that this is an entirely new AU. This seems pointless to say, but there are people....
Now that that has been said, you are now free to enjoy this fic! Have fun!

OBSIDIAN SKIES
PROLOGUE
LYLAT SYSTEM --- SECTOR Z --- 5 MONTHS AFTER OPERATION: DINOSAUR PLANET
-???-
A single large rock shot through space, travelling among the countless sparkling stars and planets, before entering a cosmic cloud of red dust, formed in a Z. There it meets others rock that have the same story, and more and more keep flying in. But with one burst of energy, they are destroyed one by one, ending their story.
A large metal hull cuts through the dust cloud as if it were nothing, easily absorbing the meteors that managed to escape it's cannons, only to meet their end against the metal surface. Large thrusters moved the large object forwards at an imaginable speed, unintentionally crashing into the small meteors.
Slowly, one of the objects on top of the metal thing rotated to meet a large meteor, and calmly aimed two tubes on it at the meteor. The tubes cackled with energy, and then released two plasma bursts, destroying the meteor as if it was nothing. Then the other three objects on top of it did the same, and blasted other meteors to pieces.
The object kept flying through the nebula, if there were any recon units in that part of the nebula, they could have seen what it was: an eight kilometers long spaceship, with the front resembling an Earthen aircraft carrier, the midsection resembling a warship and the rear consisting of two very large engine like structures, wings sprouting from them.
Right in front of the front section, a large bridge rises from the structure. Behind the black glass, is a large control section, with navigators working behind their screens and other crewmembers doing their job to keep the ship flying. But the weird thing was, that they were all animals. Lions, tigers, dogs, eagles, lizards, reptiles, you name it and it was there. And there, in the middle on a raised platform, was a black throne, but it also had several interfaces, revealing that it was in fact a luxurious control chair. But the being that occupied it, had everything except luxury on it's mind.
If any normal person would see this being, they would shudder in fear. It bore a human design, but it's appearance was from that. It's face had bright red eyes, and small horns sprouting from it's eyebrows and cheeks, pointing outwards and meeting the black exoskeleton around it's face. The being growled softly as it opened a screen with a three clawed hand, covered in the same black exoskeleton as on it's head. A large black tail with a venomous stinger on top of it was resting on the floor next to the throne, and the being curled it up as he surveyed the data. The being was clad in a crimson armor, with golden medals proudly positioned on it's chest and large shoulder pads sprouting from the armor near the shoulder.
However, it's mind was even more sinister then it's monstrous scorpion like appearance. It was completely twisted, hiding things as torture, murder, rape, destruction, and the ultimate lust for power. It had conquered many planets in it's life, and only he knows what happened to them. The being looked down at it's left, and growled before it spoke with a calm, but oh so dark voice.
,,Nova, status?" The being who was spoken too slowly turned around, revealing an all black crow, clad in a green battle armor and a HUD positioned over his left eye. ,,We have entered the Lylat System, and are currently in Sector Z, one of the three main nebulas." The scorpion nodded, and viewed a control screen. ,,What was the dear doctor's last confirmed location?"
The crow named Nova checked the control screen, and then looked back at his commander. ,,Dynos, or Dinosaur Planet as it is called in this solar system. It is a terran class planet, but the core exists of Dark Matter." The scorpion growled as he nodded, and looked ahead. ,,Then set course for Dinosaur Planet. It is time to punish that pathetic excuse of a living being, Andross." ,,Of course, Lord Zarak. Sub-commander Nova to bridge! Set course for Dinosaur Planet! Warp factor 11!"
The massive starship slowly changed it's directions, and then the large engines burst too life, setting course for the unexpecting planet...
*******************************************************
SAME TIME---DINOSAUR PLANET
-Krazoa Palace-
A torch flickered in a long corridor, casting light in the dark and lighting the shadowed walls, showing ancient writing. The corridor was perfectly untouched by time, and yet it had existed for several millennia.
But now somebody was invading this ancient corridor, but her intentions were pure and good. The blue vixen viewed the walls as she walked past them, followed by a Cloudrunner and an Earthwalker. The Cloudrunner glanced from time to time at the Earthwalker, and the Earthwalker returned the favor, not thrusting the flying dinosaur.
The vixen then frowned as she saw something at the end of the corridor, and looked at the Earthwalker. ,,Is that the entrance to the Archives, Grix?" The Earthwalker named Grix nodded, and walked up to a large metal door, decorated by the same ancient drawings as on the walls around them. ,,Yes, it is, Krystal. Now, are you sure you want to go through with this?"
Krystal looked at the door, and then back at Grix. ,,Yes, I'm sure. I have to learn the truth." The Cloudrunner walked forwards, and placed his hand on the door. ,,Now, the lock is right...." He then smirked as he pressed a tile, and the door began to open. ,,Here!"
Grix growled as he glared at the Cloudrunner, not happy that the Cloudrunner did this. ,,Don't touch our sanctuary, Cloudrunner." The Cloudrunner growled in return at the threat of Grix, and crossed his arms. ,,YOUR sanctuary? This is the sanctuary of ALL dinosaurs, you brainless ground hugger!!!"
Krystal sighed as she looked at them, and the two started arguing. She smiled satisfied, and then walked into the chamber, followed by the two dinosaurs. She then gasped as she saw the large chamber, filled with wall drawings, scrolls and books on several separate levels. She began walking around the chamber, observing the wall drawings. ,,This is amazing...."
Grix nodded, and he walked up to her while the Cloudrunner looked around. ,,As King Earthwalker said, this chamber contains the entire history of the Lylat System and the other close by solar systems. I am sure that you will find what you seek here." Krystal nodded in agreement, and traced a row of books with her fingers. ,,I appreciate your help, Grix. I would like to study the data here now." Grix nodded at her, and turned around. ,,I will remain outside. Call me when you need me. Ax, follow me!!!"
The Cloudrunner snarled at Grix as he flew up to another level. ,,I think I'll remain here. You know that astronomy always interested me." ,,You're coming with me, you worthless flying rat!!!" The two snarled at each other, and Krystal sighed as she shook her head before she spoke. ,,Grix, Ax can remain here. I do not mind that."
Grix sighed as he heard her gentle voice, and nodded. ,,Very well then, Krystal." The Earthwalker guardian then turned towards the exit, and left the chamber. Ax glanced at the leaving Grix, and then let a small smirk appear on his face when the door closed before continuing searching through the archives.
Krystal took a few books and scrolls, and sat down at the table in the middle. She opened the first book, and started reading it. Meanwhile, Ax smirked as he hides a few scrolls in the inside of his cape, and then returned at observing the scrolls.
-Two hours later-
After a while, Krystal frowned as she read something, and then opened a scroll, to check something she read. ,,This is odd...." Ax frowned as he flew down, and looked at her. ,,What is?" ,,Look at this. Each of these papers shows a moon colliding with a larger planet, and every time, the moon survives."
Ax frowned as he read it, and nodded thoughtfully. ,,That is indeed odd....Perhaps an adamantium moon?" Krystal read another scroll, and shook her head. ,,No...This scroll says that the monks who wrote this used the power of the Krazao to analyze that moon, and it wasn't made of adamantium or any kind of similar metal." Ax nods, and he grabs another scroll. He opened it, and saw an interstellar map, showing the course of the mysterious moon. ,,Wait a sec..." He traced the moon's path, and frowned as he looked at Krystal. ,,If I'm correct, that moon crossed Cerulia, Curinal, Cerinia, or whatever it was called."
Krystal sighed, and looked at the other scrolls, saddened. ,,What? I thought you would be happy to find out what happened?" Krystal kept looking at the other scrolls and books, and thought. ,,Yes...But it was my planet...My home...My friends...My family...How would you feel if this planet was destroyed, and you were the only survivor..." Axe nodded as she said that. ,,I see your point."
Then Krystal frowned as she saw her staff glowing, and Ax frowned as well as he saw her face. ,,What's wrong?" ,,Something is going on." She then grabbed her staff, and ran out of the chamber. Ax frowned again as he saw her go, and growled as he looked at the scrolls scattered on the table. He then grabbed two firestones off his armor, rubbed them together, and let the sparks land on the papers. They started burning and Ax then left the chamber with a smirk on his face, going after Krystal.
**************************************************************
-ONE HOUR AGO, AREA BETWEEN MACBETH AND SECTOR Z-
,,INCOMING!!!" The dark region of space was disrupted as a red orb was launched from a silver and blue object, and the orb detonated, blasting several meteors into oblivion. The person who fired it cursed as he saw a same kind of jet fly away from the blast radius, and went after it. ,,GET BACK HERE, FOX!!!" The pilot of the escaping jet, a fox in green pants, and white jacket smirked as he looked at the chasing jet. ,,To get blown to pieces? Thanks but no thanks, Falco!"
The pilot of the chasing jet, a blue with red falcon in an army green jacket and white bandana growled as he kept chasing the fox. ,,Give it up, McCloud! You can't win of me!!!" Suddenly, the fleeing jet pulls a loop, and ends up behind the hunting jet. ,,See ya, birdbrain!" Falco cursed as he saw that Fox had auto-targeted him, and then growled as his Arwing shook while Fox' lasers hit home. ,,Damn! Lost again!"
A large gray ship with four wings flew up, and both jets flew into the hangar, docking. Falco got out of his Arwing, and growled as Fox jumped out of his, all the time bearing a smirk on his face. ,,Getting slow, Falco?" The avian growled at his rival, and walked past him. ,,If it wasn't for that meteor, I would have won Fox!" Fox smirked as he followed Falco on his way too the bridge. ,,Yeah, right!"
Falco and Fox walked into the bridge of the Great Fox, where they were greeted by their crewmates and friends: ROB the robot, the old hare Peppy, and the young toad Slippy, all dressed in their most formal clothes. Both pilots already knew why: General Pepper was here, to survey the training with the new Arwings he donated to the Star Fox team. General Pepper nodded at the two pilots, and smiled. ,,Fox, Falco! Tell me, how did the training go? Are the new Arwings comfortable in flight?"
Both pilots nodded, and Falco smirked. ,,Like a dream, sir. Amazing handling, superb acceleration...The only thing that needs fixing is the targeting system!" Falco glared at Fox as he said that last part, and Fox smirked back at the avian in response. ,,Hey, not my fault you're a lousy flier!" The bulldog smiled satisfied as he nodded, and then got out a strawberry lollipop. He took it into his mouth, and then crossed his arms behind his back. ,,Now, there are things I would like to discuss with you, Fox."
Fox frowned as he heard this, and crossed his arms in front of him in response. ,,Like what, sir?" ,,Even though things are peaceful now, war is always around the corner. So I would like to merge the Star Fox team with the Cornerian Air Force." The entire Star Fox team gasped at this, and Fox' eyes almost bulged out as he looked at the smiling general. But Falco quickly got back on his feet, and narrowed his eyes.
,,Wait a sec, does that mean we'll have to include ROOKIE pilots in our team!?" General Pepper frowned as he sucked on his lollipop, and walked towards the holographic-generator. ,,You can select the crew, but if you see rookies as the top students of their class, then yes." Fox frowned, and he could swear that he heard Falco say "Bullshit" under his breath. He then quickly decided to take the lead, before Falco would get a fit.
,,Uh, sir, I think we should think this over. We could use the subsidy, but we wouldn't be comfortable with a new crew." General Pepper nodded, and then activated the holographic projector, and showed a list. ,,Well, decide for yourselves. These are the pilots to choose from. You can select up to 4 if you wish." Fox nodded as he walked in, and frowned as he saw some faces he recognized. ,,Hey, I know some of these guys. They were friends on the Academy." His eyes then widened, before looking at General Pepper. ,,Wait a sec! Katt Monroe, Bill Grey, Fara Phoenix and WOLF O'DONNEL!?! Sir!!! Wolf was with Andross!!! And why would we need a little spoiled rich brat on our team!?"
General Pepper frowns as Fox yelled that, and Fox gulped. ,,Sorry for raising my voice, sir." ,,You're forgiven, Fox. But the reason that Wolf O'Donnel is on that list is because he has changed in four years. Of course he still is a, for the lack of better words, a tailhole, but he has become a respected man in the academy." ,,Well, there's NO WAY we're taking a backstabbing fucker into our team!!!" Yelled Falco, obviously pissed for the fact that the former Star Wolf commander was even on the list.
General Pepper sighed as he shook his head, and looked at the avian ace. ,,Falco, I never said you HAD to take him, so please, calm down. And as for Fara Phoenix..." Suddenly, Fox' command chair turned around, and Fox frowned as he saw a brown vixen with rather long, pointy ears dressed in a purple C.A.F. uniform and a white pilot jacket. The two looked at each other, and Slippy frowned as he saw them exchanging glares. ,,A-am I m- missing s-something here?"
The two foxes kept looking at each other, and then the vixen finally talked. ,,Fox." ,,Fara." General Pepper noticed they kept glaring, and coughed to get their attention. ,,Fox, Fara is one of the best Arwing pilots out there. She is even the one who designed the new model you just tested. Of course, you are still free to choose the others...." Fara then interrupted the bulldog, never looking away from Fox. ,,Fox and I have already met, sir. On the Academy." ,,Oh, yes, that's correct. You were in the same class in the first three years, before Fox switched from Technology to Flight School."
Both foxes nodded, and then Fox looked away. ,,Well, sir, I will think about this offer." General Pepper nodded, and Peppy frowned as he polished his glasses, suspecting that General Pepper was keeping something from them. Suddenly, the alerts starting blurring, and Fox frowned before looking at the old hare.
,,Peppy, what's the situation?" Peppy ran towards a console, and signaled for ROB. The robot walked towards the hare, and they surveyed the data. ,,We picked up an S-Class warship. Seems to be of alien design. Current heading: Dinosaur Planet. Arrival in one hour." Fox' eyes widened as he remembered that Krystal was there, and looked at General Pepper and Fara Phoenix. ,,Your orders, sir?"
General Pepper growled as took out his lollipop, putting it in a pocket. ,,Yellow alert, Fox. Go check it out, but do NOT engage until I say so! Understood?" Fox growled. If there was one thing he hated, then it were those 'Hold your fire!' missions. ,,Understood, sir. Peppy! Set course for Dinosaur Planet! Slippy! Prep the stun weapons and Arwings! And Fara, get the hell out of my chair!"
Fara blinked for a second, and then unwillingly got out, glaring at Fox when he walked past her. He sat down into his chair, and narrowed his eyes. ,,Let's find out what these guys are up too! GO!" The engines of the Great Fox burst to life, and the entire hull glows green, red and blue. Then the entire front of the Great Fox is pulled into a further point, and the rest follows, completing the warp. ,,Next stop, Dinosaur Planet!!!!"

The two looked at each other, and Slippy frowned as he saw them exchanging glares. ,,A-am I m- missing s-something here?"
The two foxes kept looking at each other, and then the vixen finally talked. ,,Fox." ,,Fara." General Pepper noticed they kept glaring, and coughed to get their attention. ,,Fox, Fara is one of the best Arwing pilots out there. She is even the one who designed the new model you just tested. Of course, you are still free to choose the others...." Fara then interrupted the bulldog, never looking away from Fox. ,,Fox and I have already met, sir. On the Academy." ,,Oh, yes, that's correct. You were in the same class in the first three years, before Fox switched from Technology to Flight School."
Both foxes nodded, and then Fox looked away. ,,Well, sir, I will think about this offer." General Pepper nodded, and Peppy frowned as he polished his glasses, suspecting that General Pepper was keeping something from them. Suddenly, the alerts starting blurring, and Fox frowned before looking at the old hare.
,,Peppy, what's the situation?" Peppy ran towards a console, and signaled for ROB. The robot walked towards the hare, and they surveyed the data. ,,We picked up an S-Class warship. Seems to be of alien design. Current heading: Dinosaur Planet. Arrival in one hour." Fox' eyes widened as he remembered that Krystal was there, and looked at General Pepper and Fara Phoenix. ,,Your orders, sir?"
General Pepper growled as took out his lollipop, putting it in a pocket. ,,Yellow alert, Fox. Go check it out, but do NOT engage until I say so! Understood?" Fox growled. If there was one thing he hated, then it were those 'Hold your fire!' missions. ,,Understood, sir. Peppy! Set course for Dinosaur Planet! Slippy! Prep the stun weapons and Arwings! And Fara, get the hell out of my chair!"
Fara blinked for a second, and then unwillingly got out, glaring at Fox when he walked past her. He sat down into his chair, and narrowed his eyes. ,,Let's find out what these guys are up too! GO!" The engines of the Great Fox burst to life, and the entire hull glows green, red and blue. Then the entire front of the Great Fox is pulled into a further point, and the rest follows, completing the warp. ,,Next stop, Dinosaur Planet!!!!"
