Review response.
Silver Meta Dragon: and now I give you Zavis vs. Wolf.
Fox McCloudSaviour of Lylat: Pepper's got a reason for implanting soldiers with eggs. And as far as Zavis is concerned he is not evil, but he is not good. He is more in the gray than anything else.
Hunter Killer: Don't worry man; there will be a storm, the clouds are gathering for the next chapter or two though. Sorry bout the punctuation errors (never really was good in English).
Chapter Nine
Zavis made a quick jump back to the center of the roof and waited for the figure he had just shot to make an appearance. He could feel his body begin to tremble as the figure landed on the edge of the roof and glared at him with a single red eye. Zavis couldn't tell what it was that he was up against, but he did his best to stare back at it.
"Who, no what are you," Zavis yelled.
"You don't remember me, I'm hurt. You shot me on top of a building a little over a week ago."
"Wolf," Zavis said with more than a little surprise.
"Very good," Wolf said with a laugh, "So, you're what has the Cornerian military worked up, can't say I'm impressed. Well anyway I'm here to take you to Pepper and we can do this one of two ways. The easy way or the har—"
"Drop the clichés and lets get this over with already," Zavis yelled as he extended his spike.
Wolf started to say something but his aparoid began to speak to him.
Don't kill the human just capture it.
Right.
But make it suffer.
Why?
His kind did aparoid a great harm and now he will pay for the crimes of his people.
Didn't know aparoids held grudges.
Just capture the human before I give you another lesson in pain.
Yes sir.
Wolf returned his focus on Zavis, "So it's a little blade on blade you want eh," Wolf said as he powered his legs and launched himself right at Zavis.
As Wolf hurtled toward him Zavis side stepped the attack and shouted, "Is that the best you've got whoa." Zavis cut his insult short and side stepped another attack by Wolf. Zavis realized he needed the higher ground so he powered up his own legs and leapt into the air. As he twisted around to get a view of where Wolf was he extended both of his mini-guns and locked onto Wolf as he sped around the building. He opened fire with both guns as Wolf avoided his every shot. When he landed Wolf charged him, ignoring the small lasers that pounded into him and made a quick slash with his arm blade. Zavis gave a small yelp s both of his mini-guns clattered to the ground. Wolf lashed out with a kick that sent Zavis flying off into the side of another building. Zavis groaned as Jr. began to yell at him.
You call that fighting human.
Shut up.
I will not die like this do something.
Why don't you?
You won't give me control.
Look, I've got more experience fighting than you so if you want to help start transferring some of what we absorbed and patch this body up. Just don't mess with the weapons or move to much armor.
All right human.
Zavis felt slightly queasy as Jr. started to shift some of his insides before launching himself back at Wolf. Wolf smiled at Zavis recklessness as easily side stepped the attack. As Zavis landed Wolf launched himself and collided with Zavis. Blades and arms locked they grappled with each other before Zavis planted a foot in Wolf's chest and fired the hover engines up and shot a blast of super heated air which knocked Wolf into a nearby building. Zavis walked to the edge of the building as a white light wrapped around his right arm. He took aim with the landmaster's main gun and fired a round strait at Wolf. He smiled as the round made a direct hit.
"Fox stop he's up there," Krystal yelled as Fox rounded a corner nearly flipping the small vehicle. As Fox pulled over something crashed into a nearby building and rained ruble down on the streets below.
"What the hell was that," Falco yelled as the group looked at the impact sight.
"Don't know but—," Fox began as a bolt of green plasma lanced from another building and slammed into the impact sight. The team traced the shot to a nearby building and saw a something standing on the edge.
"That's the human Fox," Krystal shouted.
"Lets go get him already," Falco said as Katt gave a small scream. Falco whipped around and grabbed Katt and asked, "What wrong Katt." Katt's face was frozen in a look of horror as she pointed to the impact sight. Falco squinted and he could discern a figure standing in the smoke What the hell Falco thought as a bright blue light blazed around the figure as it launched itself toward the roof where its stood.
"Come on we've got to get to that roof top," Fox shouted.
Zavis dropped his smile when he saw the blue light flash from inside the smoke. He saw Wolf leap out of the smoke and he quickly backed up to the center of the roof and pulled the tanks gun back into himself as Wolf landed on the edge he had just been standing on.
"Well played pup but know it's my turn," Wolf smiled and extended a second blade on his left arm.
We're dead thought Zavis as Wolf launched himself at Zavis once again. Zavis meet the first rush but soon he was giving more ground than he was taking. He ducked dodged and rolled to stay way from Wolf relentless attacks. He was caught up in a dance and once false step would mean his death. Countless times he felt Wolf's blades bit through his armor and Jr. was hard pressed to keep the bleeding under control. As he whirled around Wolf landed a kick to his midsection that sent him rolling.
Use the gas on him already.
Can't he's to fast.
Then play dead.
Zavis managed to stumble to his feet in time to meet Wolf next attack but he couldn't keep up anymore. Wolf moved like a fur possessed as he darted around behind Zavis and sheathed one blade deep into Zavis's back. Zavis gave a small gasp as he collapsed. Zavis could feel his lungs filling up with blood and tried to cough up the warm liquid so he could breath again.
"I thought you would be more of a challenge than this human but you disappointed me." Wolf sneered as he walked in front of Zavis, "I don't think the General will mind if you arrive armless, it will make you easier to handle, and besides it's your head he wants." Wolf smiled as he raised both blades.
Get up human, fight. Do something I don't want to die.
Quiet.
How can you be so calm human were about to die.
We're playing dead.
Zavis managed to mutter, "The name is Zavis," before a light flashed around his left arm and traveled to his shoulder. With fading strength he launched himself at Wolf as he extended his new shoulder-mounted spike. A loud crunch of metal sounded as Zavis impaled Wolf and shot all the gas into him at once.
Wolf's eyes went wide as he felt the gas tear into his system. His vision blurred and he felt bile begin to rise up his throat.
What happen, tell me you useless bag of fur what.
He shot us with some kind of gas.
Absorb it.
Can't too much and too little time.
No I won't die like this nooo.
Wolf gave a small smile as he felt the aparoid inside of him die. He felt his body dieing around him as the human pushed him off the spike. Using the last bit of his strength Wolf said softly, "thanks, I'm free," he felt himself begin to slip away.
Absorb it.
What?
Our body is dieing and we need biological materials absorb the wolf.
We can make it.
Zavis coughed up a large glob of congealed blood.
No we can't absorb him.
Fine.
Zavis placed a trembling hand on Wolf and began to break him down and absorb him. A flash of blue and white light ignited and flowed over the roof in a dazzling display of color. Zavis began to pull Wolf's body into himself and he felt Jr. rearrange the incoming matter to heal their body. But Zavis felt something wrong. A small pain in the back of his head flashed and was gone. Zavis stood as he felt trough his repaired body. He was stronger and he guessed he had a more wolfish look to himself but his vision was off some how. Reaching up he touched his left eye and felt a metal patch over it. That's my reminder I guess he thought of what I just did.
Why do you feel sad human. He was dead.
What we did was wrong. He deserved to die in peace not be broke into pieces.
Whatever human what's done is done now lets get out off here.
Zavis walked to where his mini-guns had fallen and reabsorbed them. As he turned to jump off the building a small access door on the building burst open.
"Freeze," Fox yelled as he and Falco trained their blasters on Zavis.
"Great just what I need," Zavis muttered as he turned to face the four furs, "What do you want with me."
"You're under arrest human," Falco shouted.
"What ever," Zavis yelled as he turned to jump off the building. As he couched down a hover transport copter flew by and landed on the roof. Zavis watched the craft as its access ramp dropped and several marines poured out. Zavis pulled out his canon and took aim at the group of marines.
"I wouldn't do that," A voice said from within the copter. Zavis watched as General Pepper walked out off the access ramp. "Well, well, well, I am surprise that you managed to beat Wolf but I digress. Zavis was it, I am glade I finally found you now if you will come with me."
"Over my dead body," Zavis shouted as he aimed for Pepper.
"If it were only that simple but I know you won't fire that shot,"
"And what makes you say that," Zavis asked amused.
"This," Pepper said as he hit the trigger to the nano-tech bomb.
Stars exploded in front of Zavis eyes as pain ripped trough every nerve ending. He stumbled and lowered the gun as he tried to get his bearing. The pain faded for a moment before returning with twice the force. Zavis fell to his knees as Pepper walked over to him. "You see you will be coming with us. Take him away." Zavis blacked out as Jr. cursed his foolishness as a third voice groaned inside of their head. Pepper then turned to face the Star Fox team, " As for you I gave a direct order that if you interfered with this mater you would be considered traitors. Arrest them." Fox and the others braced themselves for a fight but saw that they were out numbered so grudgingly they surrendered. "Excellent, contact Dr. Hyman, tell him we are bring him the human." Every thing is going according to plan Pepper thought. Yes, Yes it is came another voice. Pepper wiped around to see who had said that but seeing nothing he headed to toward the copter.
Authors note: eh don't like the fight scene but I tried hope ya'll aren't too disappointed with it. Next chapter will catch other characters up to where we are now so it might be a little slow. So hope this chapter was ok. Review if you feel like it and I hope you enjoy the next chapter.
