OPTIONAL SIDE STORY: Falco, Day 1
(Falco's journal entries after departure from Star Fox Team in Ch.2)
Day 1:
Yesterday, I left the Star Fox team...again. I can't shake the thoughts of Katt out of my mind. They won't seem to go away. When I was with Star Fox, and we had that two years drought of action, I couldn't stand it. I felt I had to do something, but I never even came close to what I set out to do after I left the team. I rejoined after six years, seeing that they had gotten a pretty good mission from Pepper. I figured, "If Pepper actually starts handin' out missions like this, I'm bound to have some chance to find her." But after seeing Fox with Krystal...I couldn't stand being seeing them together, while I was all alone, again with no missions. After Dinosaur Planet, all Fox could think about was Krystal, and how he knew he could get his crew to let her join. I'm sure he didn't mean anything by it, but it seemed like that's all he cared about anymore.
Anyway, now that I'm no longer with the Star Fox team, I can choose my own missions and I can follow my own path. As I left, I took the liberty of deleting my Arwing's serial number from the Great Fox's computer, which will stop them from being able to track me down. Fox will probably be dying without me there to help, but it's time for him to deal with his own problems. Now that Krystal girl can save Fox's butt for me, heh.
I had no particular place to begin my search, but I figure any place was better than nowhere. I had to find a docking station that Katt has visited previously, so that I can figure out where she was last headed. Dinosaur Planet had no other planets in its immediate area, so I just let the autopilot take control and hoped that I would eventually see another planet or space colony on my radar.
After a few hours, I finally picked up a signal from a space colony that was half a sector away. I took back the controls and hit the boost to hurry up the process. Flying has always come easy for me; I don't know how I learned to fly so well. I think the fact that I'm a bird gives me a second-sense for flying a ship. Not that I really care, but I gotta fill this journal with something...
Oh ya, I finally got to the space colony and I landed inside its outer structure. It wasn't the biggest colony I had seen, but I figured it was big enough to maybe know something about Katt. I exited my ship and began to roam the hallways of the colony. There were many different types of animals here, some that I had never seen before. I found a computer terminal and sat down to find out if Katt had visited. I got the docking bay's search engine to work, but whenever I typed in the serial number for Katt's ship, it displayed the message, "Access Denied, please enter authorization password." Not that this was a problem for me. When I was training at the Cornerian Academy, I learned all kinds of overriding codes for programs like this. After I hacked into their database, I was easily able to find many different ships that had gone in and out of the colony, most of them were freighters, and there weren't many un-scheduled arrivals to report. I typed in the serial number into the text box again and this time it displayed the words, "Ship identified. Serial number: 03741-93612- 84653-44, Owner: Katt Monroe, Arrived from: Corneria, Destination: Venom."
It was cool I had actually found information about Katt, but then I wondered, "Why the heck she was on Venom!" I looked down the screen to see that this record was only a few days old, which meant I had to get to Venom fast, before she could have time to go anywhere else. I couldn't leave today though cause' my Arwing had almost run out of fuel cells and I couldn't leave until they re-supplied me. So I figured I might as well get this room. It sucks, but I don't care, I got it for free, thanks to some random person who recognized me from my exploits eight years ago with Fox, heh, I guess I'm startin' to miss that guy, I miss the good ol' days...Doin' missions, blowin' stuff up, saving Fox's butt from destruction on a regular basis, ya, It was great while it lasted, but I can never go back, my goal is waiting ahead of me, with only a couple day head start, nothing I can't handle...
