TWO HEROES COLLIDE 9, LYLAT-TERRA WARS

     X-Eagle has utilized his four talismans. Now that he has control over them, he has managed to weaken Eagle. Now, he will absorb the life force Eagle has. What will he do to survive?

Chapter Sixteen – "Virtue"

     Fox is searching for the fake Eagle. Even though he had searched everywhere, none in Zoness he found the fiend. However, his search ends when he makes a route back to the base.

     "There he is!" Fox thought. "Now this is my chance to pour my anger into…"

     But then, as he looked closer, he noticed another bird chained to a figure. As he observed more, he realized that it was Eagle.

     "What is that naïve doing?" he provoked to himself. "Is he trying to kill himself?" He then urged forward, firing a fully charged beam to the X-Eagle. "I'm not doing this for you, Eagle. I'm doing this for Zoness."

     Without noticing it, X-Eagle got hit by the shot. It knocked him away from Eagle, hitting towards the building. He didn't become aware of the fox fighter.

     "Grr! Who did that?!" he grunted. He then flies up, noticing an Arwing gliding to the air.

     "It's me who did that," Fox shouted from his seat. He then fired beams towards X-Eagle, barraging the avian's body until smoke covers him. "Eat those, bird brain…"

     He thought that the black Eagle is done for, but as he gets close to the smoke, an energy blast suddenly darted from the fumes towards his fighter, damaging the shields. Then, from the dark gasses, X-Eagle flew out again.

     "You're not dead?!" Fox gasped. "But I let loose to the fullest!"

     "That wasn't enough!" X-Eagle grinned. "And my attack earlier wasn't enough either!" He fires another energy shot, annihilating the Arwing's barrier and scratching the exterior.

     "Damn it…" Fox grumbled. "How can I kill him off?!"

     X-Eagle charges another shot, preparing to be thrown to the Arwing. "It's really nice to know that I'm facing the great Fox McCloud. Too bad you won't last that long!" He then hurls it towards Fox.

     Fox just held on to himself, closing his eyes. After a second passed though, he looked back at his front. He saw Eagle blocking the attack that was about to hit him.

     "You fool!" Fox yelled. "What are you doing?!"

     "I'm… I can handle this…" Eagle softly spoke out. "Just… get out of here…" Blood drips from his mouth, and his wings are scratched, but he still tries to save Fox.

     "Eagle, don't waste your time! You'll die anyway!" X-Eagle laughed.

     However, Fox didn't appreciate the help. He fired lasers from Eagle's wings, piercing through them, but hitting X-Eagle. The brown avian screamed in pain, and then he slowly drifted down. X-Eagle, on the other hand, just absorbed the attack.

     "That's what you get for meddling," Fox coldly stated at Eagle. How merciless can he get?

     "Fox… don't… you'll just get yourself… killed…" Eagle whispered as he falls down slowly with red fluids streaming out from his body.

     "Thank you for finishing him off! He's such a annoyance!" X-Eagle chuckled. "Now, to repay you, I'll kill you fast and easy!"

     "Don't think that I'm easy to beat!" Fox answered back. He then fired barrages of lasers towards X-Eagle.

     "You don't learn from your mistakes, do you?" X-Eagle laughed as he vanishes from the Fox's point of view.

     "Where… where is he?"

     "I'm over here!"

     X-Eagle reappears at the Arwing's left wing, tearing it with his talons. He then drifted to the other wing and destroys it. The Arwing soon started to fall down, losing flight control.

     "Fuck you!" Fox shouted. "Get away from me!"

     "You said you wanna fight, so I'm giving it to you!" he devilishly snickered. He then punched the cockpit's cover, grabbing Fox to the neck and pulling him out and up.

     "Let go off me!" Fox struggled, but then he stopped as he sees his torn fighter crashed to the ground. It's many feet above the roads, and if he drops, he ends up a fox pie.

     "Oh sure, I'll let you go!" X-Eagle grinned. He then started to spin around, and throwing Fox away. "Farewell, McCloud!"

     "AHHH!!!" Fox shouted in terror, seeing that this is his end.

     The vulpine closed his eyes as he felt something. He thought that he's been taken into heaven. But then, as he opened his eyes, he noticed bloody brown wings clumsily flapping to carry him up. He was embraced by Eagle, the one who carried him to the top of a building.

     "Eagle…" Fox whispered.

     "I'll… take you… somewhere safe…" Eagle weakly replied.

     He landed on a nearby top of the building. He tumbled as he lands, releasing Fox who rolled away from him. As Fox tries to stand up, he noticed the lifeless bird unconscious from the awkward landing.

     "Why did you save me, WHY?!" Fox shouted as he nears the bird.

     As he touches Eagle's beak, a swoop pushed him away from Eagle. He landed on his face, and X-Eagle placed his sharp talons to the fox's head. He was the one who pushed him away from Eagle.

     "Well, at least now I'm pretty sure he's dead." X-Eagle grouched. "Finally, I can kill you!"

     "He swooped high above the ground, pretty sure that Fox won't walk away because he's been pushed to the surface, weakening his limbs.

     Fox finally lost hope. Thinking about Eagle's deeds, a slight change of heart for Terrans suddenly approached him for a while.

     "Am I really doing the right thing?" he thought. But then he believed it's too late for that.

     "Prepare to die!" X-Eagle shouted as he swoops towards Fox. His talons are stretched out, ready to pierce the mammal's back.

     Suddenly, in a split-second, something covered Fox. Eagle placed himself above the immobile vulpine, taking the deathblow. Blood splashed from his back, and his wings started to bleed.

     "EAGLE!!!" Fox shouted as he sees the avian smiling in front of him.

     "Fox… take care of Wulf… don't let him… fail… stop… the war…" Eagle spoke out his last words at Fox in a low tone. Blood then dripped from his beak, ad his eyes closed. Before passing out and after giving his last phrase though, he pushed Fox away, entering the door that leads to the stairway of the building.

     "NO!!!" Fox yelled as the door closes. "EAGLE… I… MY FAULT…"
