THIS IS NOT A CHAPTER. I put this up because I REWROTE THE LAST CHAPTER and added some parts that ties in with the sequel. so please hit your bACK KEY and read it! Thanks!

This is a credits/shoutouts 'please go on to the sequel" page that should help tie it together. Yes, the two new parts in the last chapter are neat new add ons like the special edition of a DVD! lolol.

Afterword by the Author...

Okay so as you all probably now know, I REWROTE THE LAST CHAPTER, like I promised...a million years ago. I'm up to chapter 7, now, on the Sequel and will be posting it shortly after I reupdate THIS story.

As you can see, GO BACK ONE CHAPTER RIGHT NOW, because I JUST redid the last chapter. THIS is NOT a chapter, it's a credits and shoutout page... honest, go look and see for yourself... i just went back to the last chapter before this update right here, and put in a new blurb about krystal AND andrew, AND re-wrote some parts... then i just found some spelling errors like "Faught" instead of "Fought" and "oricle" instead of "oracle" so i'll fix that too. oops... so yeah, go hit that back button and read the last chapter. I did it at work cause i felt like it :D I added some parts because it ties it into the sequel i'm writing.

Ooo, so what happened? Did Andrew cry for his uncle, like he does everytime he gets his butt handed to him? Or is he really looking at his Uncle Andross? Has someone come to dispatch him or rescue him? How will this have any meaning in this next game? Or the sequel that follows ASSAULT, for that matter? Thank you for reading! I love you guys:)

With only 12 chapters of a story, I've broken 3000 hits. I was amazed. I started the story in august and by the end of the month had over a thousand. I'm floored. I appreciate you guys!I appreciate that support and reader lovemore than you'll ever know. Every day, now that the story has long since finished, I see at least 6 to 10 people read through it. This story started as a 'for fun' chapter or two of a short story and grew into a short novel because you guys continued to give feedback and reader-love, so I continued with the story for you guys. I appreciate all the feedback and all the cool reviews. I don't mind any scathing reviews, it helps me shape things up for you guys :) ...For example, I know some people LIKE Krystal being 16 and some people LIKE her being about 20. That's why I came up with my little thing in this story about how Cerinia took longer to revolve around the sun than Corneria would take... thus making her 16 on her doomed homeworld but mathmatically she's almost 21 on Corneria. That way EVERYONE is happey!

I've had so much fun writing this and the sequel, it's been an intense and passionate adventure for me!

THANK YOU FOR READING THIS STORY!

Prepare for the sequel...! I've already got it up, it's called REFLECTIONS OF THE FUTURE. It touches on a few important post-war things like the search and rescue of civilians and innocent casualties. It touches on Panther's continuation of his vow to attempt to woo Krystal. It touches on The Oikonni Empire's history of using Bio-weapons (Remember SF64? Sol, Aquais and Titania's end bosses were all bio-organic-weapons created by Andross. Freakish creatures that were massive and deadly. We'll see more of that in the next story) and of course... ROMANCE! Yes, I'll finally get Fox and Krystal alone enough for him to open up around her! Also, we'll find out more about Krystal's past and what the oricle told her!

What great challenges await our favorite blue vixen? Was being trapped in a glass prison her challenge? Was surviving the Aparoids her challenge? Is getting Fox to open his heart to her a challenge? Possibly, but her greatest challenge is still ahead!
