Chapter Five: Reminisce
I don't own Star Fox, but I own my characters. Using my characters means you have to ask permission from me and giving me credit. I would be delighted then when you do! This is probably one of my long-running stories, so bear with it!
"So you're still alive… after all these years," Fox growled in a serious way, "and to think I've already killed you years ago! I guess the saying evil weeds never die is true after all…" Wolf just looked at him with a rather serious look, ignoring everyone in sight. He just turned his back to Fox, and walked away. Fox was furious after being ignored like that, as if he was nobody to him. "Is… is that it!? Is that how you treat your defeater?" Enraged, he jumped forward and delivered a powerful punch to Wolf's back. It knocked him down to the floor, spitting out blood from his mouth.
"Fox, stop it!" Wulf yelled out as he pulls out his weapon, the neutron blade. However, he felt that something is pointed to his back, and when he glanced behind, he was surprised to see Falco pointing his blaster to his back. "What's this for? We can't just let them kill each other! We have no time to play! We better get moving before…" Falco suddenly swung his weapon to Wulf's face, sending him down to the floor.
"Sorry, bob, but I really must see this!" Falco jeered as he points his blaster to Wulf. "Don't worry! I ain't going to kill you. However, if you enter the fight scene between these two sons of a bitch, I'll be forced to use this!" Wulf then glanced to Leon, who seems to not care on what's happening.
Leon exclaimed with a caveat, "I'm not going to bother Wolf and his friend, since I'm also interested on what's going to happen. But if Wolf loses and dies in this fight, I'll be doing whatever I can to avenge him by getting rid of Falco and his friend." Wulf tries to stand up from the knockdown, but even if he does, Falco still limits the wolf's movements. He doesn't want to see both of them dead in the end.
Wolf stood up from the floor. He then wipes his blood with his arm, and then he licks it off. Silence is still present, and for him, that's all he needs. He then glanced at Fox, who seems to be very enraged. Without a word, he quickly speeded towards Fox, and the vulpine pilot didn't saw it coming. The black wolf delivered a powerful quick punch to the abdomen, making Fox feel the world of hurt. It sent him down to the floor, trying to endure the pain within him. Wolf then walked away from the poor fox.
Fox covered his mouth as he vomits blood. "Damn… you're good," Fox exclaimed while his bloody hand still covers his mouth. "I can't believe I'm saying this, but you're actually a great shit to fight." He then grabs his pistol and points it towards Wolf. "But I'll never lose to someone like you… NEVER! This is for everyone that you hurt, and a lot from me!" He quickly fired lasers to the wolf, hoping that it will kill him. The barrage of volleys makes the ground ruined, and the whole seems to be falling down. Falco, Leon, and Wulf moved back a few steps.
As the smoke clears, he saw nothing. No one is there. Wolf couldn't be disintegrated by those shots, so where is he? Fox looked around, when he suddenly got his head pushed to the ground. Wolf was actually above, and he was able to evade the attack. He jumped high and dropped to catch Fox and bang his head to the ground. However, Fox is still alive, but barely. He tries to stand up, but he couldn't.
Wulf got furious and worried about the two, so he has to do something or else something might happen. He quickly ducked so that while Falco would aim down, this would enable him to dash for a short distance. He quickly grabbed Falco's arm and removed his weapon. "Forgive me, but I have to do this!" he spoke out as he quickly delivered a crouching kick to bird, making him crash to the floor. He then activates his weapon as he stood in front of Fox. "Enough of this foolishness! I don't want both of you to die, so quit your stupid past arguments!"
Wolf glanced at the wolf's eyes. He saw something in those eyes that made him put an end to his stance. He placed his hands to his pockets and then walked towards Fox, who seems to be very injured. He then held out his left hand as if he wishes to help the poor fellow, or maybe he does want to help him… However, the stubborn Fox scoffed at the offer, so he grabbed him to make him stand. Fox was annoyed, but then, he felt something to Wolf, a strange feeling of… forgiveness?
"Finally, at least things became peaceful…" Wulf remarked after the fight ended. "Oh, and sorry about what happened here, Leon. I'm sure they know what to do about this place, after the fighting… I'm not really a good interior decorator." Leon nodded with a smile, and then Falco pulled himself up from the ground.
"That wasn't very funny, Wulf!" he griped as he dusts himself and his clothing. "Anyway, that was a neat trick that you did! You fooled me, the great Falco, in the quickest way ever! Who could've thought that…" Wulf quickly pressed his palm to Falco's beak, making him shut up. He's hearing something strange, and so do Wolf. Footsteps were hurrying towards them, as the wolves heard it, and it shows a bad sign.
"Everyone, duck and hide!" Wolf yelled in a loud manner. Everyone followed, and before ducking, Wulf took a palm-sized ball-like metal from his belt and threw it to the side of the door, hidden from the view. They crawled to the back of the broken sofa, and they were at least hidden from view.
"…and whatever you do," Wulf added from Wolf's yell, "cover your ears firmly…" They all wondered, but they followed.
They were fortunate that Wolf yelled, since soldiers with goggles suddenly stormed the entrance and fired a barrage of laser beams. The whole place was barrage, and it made the soldiers stopped firing and wondered why no one was present.
"Where… where are they?" one of the soldiers asked the other. "Shouldn't we see at least a wolf's body tattered with holes?" The others nodded, looked around. They then made a closer look to the sofa, but before they could make a step, the metal ball suddenly glowed. It then created loud sound waves that disrupted the soldiers. A sonic boom was heard followed by a high-pitched sound. It forced the soldiers to leave and abandon the place.
After the hoodlums left the place, the group stood up behind their savior, the sofa. It made them wonder what happened. Well, all of them except for Wulf, the one who threw the bomb earlier.
"What an amazing thing you threw earlier!" Leon praised him with delight. As a man of science, he surely likes such things. "What was it? I'm pretty interested!"
"That was a Sonic Bomb," Wulf replied in a smart manner. "It is a bomb-like weapon, but instead of exploding, it sends off strong sound waves that can disorient the brain. You know, since the living body is like water, sound waves can travel through the body and give the brain a shock! Oh, and sorry about the place… They made things look horrible than before… Maybe you could stay for a while at our mother ship if you want to…" Leon, who seems to be more interested on the bomb than on his own, rubbed his own hands with glee.
"No prob… but promise you'll teach me on how to make those things!" he replied with satisfaction. Falco looked at him and sighed.
Fox was silent for a while. He is actually feeling something but he doesn't want to show it to the group. However, he can't hide it anymore, since his body starts to go down. He fainted due to the strong blows, but Wolf caught him before he passed out.
"Oh no… Fox!" Wolf yelled as he tries to snap Fox out, but it seems that the vulpine is in a state of unconsciousness. "What… what have I…" Wulf patted him and made him feel better.
"We have to take him to Space Den, our mother ship," he commanded them. "I guess it's time for you guys to see our ship, and we have to go there quickly! Fox might not wake up!"
