CHAPTER 2: THE MECHIEVIOUS FOX
The following morning proved to be a bad one for Relena as she got out of bed and ready for school. As she headed out of the building she did not notice a little fox boy running up to her. "Hey wait up," he said in a sing song voice. "Why don't you go away," Relena said, "Why should I after all you are my new master and I have to stay by you to protect you," Justin replied with his finger up in the air. "You caused me nothing but trouble yesterday," Relena said, "Well I did save your life after all," said Justin with a humph of stubbornness. He watched as Relena marched into the school and with a small giggle from him transformed into a human boy but it was all an illusion of course. He skipped into the local town staying out of trouble. The little fox boy was so entranced with the new world that he awoken to that he stopped to look at a newspaper. "Hey there little guy what are you doing here aren't you suppose to be in school?" said the man at the vendor. "I am new here and I just wanted to explore the town." Said Justin trying to sound innocent, "Well little guy it is not every day that I see a kid like you read the newspaper," he said with a smile. "What year is this?" said Justin, "It is the year A.C. 199," said the man a little confused.
"Oh and what does A.C. stand for?"
"It means After Colony,"
"After Colony?" Justin said and the man laughed, "For a kid your age someone did not teach you right," he said as he handed the kid the newspaper. "I don't have any money to pay you sir," said Justin, "Don't worry about it, it is on me kid," said the newspaper man as he went about his business. Justin headed down the street and began to read the news paper. There where some strange articles that he had found interesting such as 'Mobile Suit factory squashed' or 'Avengers attacked another ESUN summit at L1,' and 'Preventers nabbed shuttles for hauling illegal items to L5' or last one caught his interest, 'Ancient Weapons found in Japan but where stolen by Avenger raids.' And Justin could not help but read the article.
Archeologists found findings of ancient Japanese weapons outside of Kyoto the weapons range from swords to armor. The weapons dates back to the late feudal era Japan and many more where found in the dirt as they continued to uncover strange bones. Some say that they even found trees that leaked blood but that was back in the late 20th century. The trees are gone but the weapons remain. Many of the weapons are long since ruined to the point of uselessness. The ones that remain are a Two Katanas, a Kodachi, one Glaive, a bow, and a bow staff these items remain a mystery as to their origins. Professor Ronald Dickens says that the weapons themselves are priceless and that any person might find them valuable. But as soon as the weapons where cleaned and made ready for shipping they where stolen when an Avengers group raided the camp. Many where killed and those that did escape where badly wounded. They managed to stay alive long enough to be interviewed by the Preventers and then died due to blood loss and trauma to the head. Preventers Head Lady Une describes the situation to be unusual. "We have reports of other items stolen by the Avengers things that have even us baffled like prayer beads and scrolls. Warmers and so forth as well as the illegal mobile suits and other weapons artillery. If we do catch these thieves we will bring them to justice and make them pay for the crimes of not only theft but also terrorism to the colonies as well as earth."
With that Justin put the newspaper down and began to think about things as he made his way across the town. He then stopped at what looked like a library and began to make his way inside. He was surprised to see books all over the place as he searched through them to find the history section. Normally he is not one for reading but he was curious to find out more about this time than any. So he found himself in front of the circulation desk. "Hello son how I may help you?" she asked politely. "Excuse me miss do you know where the history section is?" Asked Justin, "And what are you looking for in the history section?" said the librarian. He was a kind old lady with silvery gray hair and wore a nice blue dress with flowers around them. "I am looking for books on the events after the third world war," said Justin and the librarian nodded. She got out from behind the desk and led the way.
Justin had never seen so many books and computers in a long time as he looked at all the people here. At last he found the history section and the librarian began to pull out book after book till Justin had a pile over his head. "You sure you don't need help with those?" said the librarian, "No ma'am I got them," he said and she saw him at the desk. "Do you have a library card or a number?" she asked, "No I don't," said Justin sadly, "Don't worry I will have one out for you," she said and asked for information on Justin and he told her all he knew but then she noticed something. "What is that red card in your pocket?" she asked and Justin quickly held up his old card. The librarian examined it, "Where did you get this?" she asked and Justin lied, "I found it at my grandparents place in the attic," he said and the librarian smiled, "Well it looks like you have found a antique library card and so well preserved too." She said and Justin shrugged. She then handed him his new card and Justin left the library with his stack of books.
When he got back to the tree he leaped up with ease and took out his first book. But due to some interruptions he could not concentrate. His blood began to boil at some of the cheerleader's attempts to be annoying. Getting off of his rear in the tree Justin used his makeshift shelter and climbed down careful to put the books in the hollow that he found in the tree he made his way over to where the cheerleaders where. Using his powers of disguise he changed into a cheerleader. His form was that of a red haired girl with a lusty body to go with it. He gave a smirk and swung her body back and forth and saw the libido on the boys who where watching go off. His cheerleading skirt flew up a bit giving the boys a good view of the underwear beneath it. He could hear whistles as they blew at him. The cheerleading coach stopped the practice and approached Justin. "Now hold on a second you I don't remember you from around here?" he demanded and Justin shrugged, "Sorry Sugar but I could not help myself you see I just need a man now and I want him now." With that he kissed the coach and tried not to be sick for the next few hours. The coach's face went hot with this and he began to moan to the disgust of the cheerleaders. When he broke it he began to laugh at the coaches now harden pants as well as the new wet spot. The coach looked at him and then looked in shock as the image changed into that of a young boy. Justin laughed so hard that he lost control of his illusion and it faded away. "Hey look it is a kid," he said and this got Justin's attention as he stood up.
Everyone looked at him very angrily and the boy pretended to show that he was sorry. It was then that he called on another illusion and put on a Mexican hat. He then grew taller and taller till he was about 6'1 his ears became longer and longer with it as well as he grew gray fur. He grew whiskers as well and guess what he pulled out a carrot and began to eat it. "Umm what's up doc," he said and everyone looked in complete shock at this. The then began a little dancing as people tried to catch him and slapped the coach a good thirty times. His hands where so fast that the people could not see it and Justin was actually going slow! Laughing the Bugs Bunny wanna be ran in a happy fit as everyone tried to catch him. He then leaped into the air and dug his way underground. When the crowds tried to get him he leaped behind them in his true for and began to run to the tree that he was sleeping in. Using his all out demon speed he ran as fast as he could to the tree and retrieved his books.
Running down the tree he ran towards the city with a whole team of cheerleaders on his tail. They tried to catch him on scooters, motorbikes, cars, trucks, and any kind of vehicle you can think of. The little fox boy ran as fast as his demon legs could carry him and that was far indeed. He ran into the forest as fast as his legs could carry him. Then leaping high he ran from branch to branch with everyone hot on his heels. "Come back here you trouble maker we'll get you for humiliating us like that!" yelled the coach.
Relena was having a good day after all as she exited the school with Hilde and Catherine in tow. She did not have a good morning at all when Dorothy Catalonia decided to spoil things when she came to the school. She was very jealous of Relena's high position in the ESUN and wanted a position herself. But after seeing Relena in this school she wanted nothing but revenge. She was very annoyed about it. "I can't believe that Dorothy would follow you here to a public school," said Hilde, "That girl has got to grow up," said Catherine as they walked over to the dorms. It was then that a girl ran up to Relena and Co. "Miss Relena something happened to the little boy that you where chasing yesterday," said the girl, "What happened to him?" Relena asked, "Well he was trying to read in the tree over there," she said pointing to the tree that Justin slept in. "I saw him get irritated with the cheerleaders and the coach so I just saw him do the most weirdest thing." She said, "And what is that?" said Relena, "He changed into a cheerleader and flirted with the coach even kissed him." She said and the trio went white with horror. "He did what?" said Relena getting angry at the day gone bad, "He turned into a very busty woman and kissed the coach." The other girls where listening as the girl explained the situation to Relena, Hilde and Catherine began to move away as they saw Relena's blood boil. They knew she had a very bad day first was Dorothy now Justin. "Wait till I get my hands on that FOX!" she yelled and they moved very far away.
Justin was having a merry time running from his charges as fast as he could. But he decided to end his fun with a bang. He leaped down and found himself in front of a large boulder. The vehicles stopped and everyone jumped out. They held in their hands various blunt weapons from bats to pomp pomp's. Justin only smiled as they got closer, they are in for a big surprise, he said as his eyes began to glow red. The people stopped as his form changed again from that of a harmless little boy into something else. His ears began to travel up his head as his tail appeared behind him. His hair turned red as his feet and hands shifted to become paws. His face elongated to accommodate the change. As he grew larger and larger his body became longer as well. The people began to back away at this new creature as Justin's teeth became longer and longer into pointy canines and fur began to replace his clothes. As if on cue he began to growl his red eyes glowed. The first of them began to approach, "It is all a trick," he said as he put his hand out only to have it bitten by Justin. The boy screamed as blood gushed out of the wound and the Fox began to attack. They all ran for their vehicle careful to pick up the wounded as well. Speeding away the fox followed them to the edge of the woods and then when satisfied he walked back to where he left his books and continued his trek into the woods for a spot to read.
Relena was still fuming when the group returned screaming for help. She was lost for words as she ran up to the group and saw the boy with the bleeding arm. "What happened?" she asked, "We where chasing this thing when all of a sudden he turned into a giant dog and bit Rupert here," said one boy. And Relena pulled out her cell phone and called an ambulance.
As soon as they took away Rupert, Relena demanded an explanation for the trouble and they explained what happened. She then remembered what Dr. Steward said and immediately she ran into town.
When she got there she began to search for the fox boy hoping to find him in the crowds laughing somewhere but to no avail. Then she decided to check the forests surrounding the town. She then got into a long hike to the forest even though she is still in her school uniform. "Relena this is not a good idea," said Catherine, "I thought you was going to check up on the circus?" Relena asked her and the knife thrower was taken back, "I was but it can wait," she said as she ran up to Relena. Hilde was behind but managed to catch up to them. But they would soon find out that they are not alone.
OUTER SPACE
Mark Ellison was not very pleased to find out that one of his best prizes has fallen to earth. He was currently on the phone with one of his subordinates. "You mean to tell me that the little fox has escaped?" he said with a growl, "Yes sir we checked everywhere and there is no sign of Thunder Fox." Said the man on the phone and it was obvious that he is afraid for his life. "Find him and if you can destroy Relena Peacecraft for she is reported to be in the area as well. Oh and don't forget the transmitter for Thunder Fox is only on instincts right now. I want him alive and well and captured before anything else happens." He said hanging up the phone he then picked it up again and dialed a number to another member of the Avengers. "This is Ellison give me head of security for the rest of the assassins." He said and the phone was switched to a man in his later thirties. "Ah good evening good sir what can I do for you?" the man said and Mark smiled for the man was totally loyal to him, "How is the rest of our cargo?" he said, "The defrosting process is underway and the transmitter encoders are working fine. We should be able to have complete control once the ice is melted away." Said the man and then there was a sudden explosion and then nothing. Mark cursed but kept his smile for he knew that the Preventers would eventually find the other three Assassins but he has the last one. Walking over to the defroster he approached the still frozen form of a giant dog, "Moro no Kimi, queen of the Shadow Assassins." He said with a smile on his face as he began to laugh evilly into the night.
Relena and Hilde where already lost in the woods with Catherine already gone back to get ready for break and head back to the circus. With the master gone she was left with running it but also decided to attend college as well to learn about management. The college was connected to the school so that is why everyone shared dorms. "Are you sure we will find Justin tonight," said Hilde as she began to let her soldier instincts take over. "Yea I hope so when I get through with him he is so sorry." She said but the anger was long gone replaced by fear. "Um where are we?" she asked and Hilde shrugged, "I think we are lost," she said and Relena blanched at the statement. "More then lost my pretties more than that," said a voice and they turned to find two men looking at them with guns. A scream filled the air as gunshots where heard.
Justin still in fox form was reading on the life of the space colonies when he heard a scream. His fox ears picked up the sound as coming from a far off. Getting up he left his books and began to run as fast as he could towards the sound pushing himself to find out what is the matter. As he came closer his nose caught a scent and he growled at the smell. It was the almost the same smell as that of the men that attacked Relena.
They came closer to the women and Hilde moved Relena behind her and prepared herself for a fight. But that was not to come anytime soon. A dark shaped flew out of nowhere and landed a hard kick in the guys face. Spinning in the air the figure to the form of a fox and attacked the other man. With a few growls and snaps here and there the fox scared the daylights off the two men. One man pulled out his gun and began to fire at the fox but it was too fast for him. When he looked at the size of the fox his eyes grew wide. "YOU!" he yelled as he fired back, "Watch out it is Thunder Fox one of the shadow assassins." He said and with this Justin transformed back into his human form and slashed with his claws. Then powering up his tail he sent and electric charge into the face of the other man. The first man then radioed for help as he was slashed again in the throat.
All that time Relena and Catherine where in a state of shock as Justin found with astounding speeds and disposed of his enemies. It was then that the shouts of more of them came over the distance and Justin wasted no time at all indicating to Relena and Hilde to climb on to his back. Then getting up he bounded away at amazing speed and maneuverability threw the woods. Leaping over logs and rocks Justin made his way through the woods with ease following his sense of smell he waited till he was too far away form anyone before stopping.
Relena and Hilde got off and watched in amazement as Justin shifted from a giant fox to a boy once more. "What was that all about Justin?" Relena said with a growl, "What do you mean?" "Thanks for helping us back there but I want to know what you did to those people?" she demanded. "Calm down Relena the danger is over." Said Hilde and Relena sighed, "I thought when I got out of politics a few months ago to attend school that everything will be normal I guess not." She said, "You where in the government?" Justin asked, "Where have you been?" said Hilde, "He has been sleeping for five hundred years," said Relena. "Oh," said Hilde as she eyed him. "Well he does look a little weird with the fox tail and all was this part of that preventer's thing that was going on around the place?" she asked and Relena nodded. "Before I gave up my position the Preventers where planning an assault on the Avengers beforehand. But I left before I saw the plan going through. I was there for the meeting though when the found the files on Dr. Steward." Justin's eyes lit up at the name that was mentioned. "Dr. Steward?" he said and then remembered what happened and shuddered.
A few hours later the group made their way back to town on Justin's back though reluctantly the fox did not want to. When they got back they where glad to be back in their rooms and ready for bed. But their quiet night was not about to last.
