Okay, here's chapter 4, their going to meet each other!
Chapter 4: Knowing Your Team
Numbuh 1 was sweating anxiously as he and General Pepper walked inside the Cornerian Army base, he was astounded by all the technology, it was more advanced than anything on Earth. But still, Numbuh 1 stuck to KND's 2x4 technology and the ones his best friend gave him.
It was they were greeted by Bill Grey, the ace pilot of the Cornerian Army, he too was a dog breed, most likely a bulldog Numbuh 1 thought.
"Hello, Bill Grey." General Pepper said. "Greetings Sir," the canine ace pilot said while saluting. "I see you're back from your daily patrol."
Bill Grey noticed something next to the general, a small, bruised, shiny headed, human boy straightening his slightly damaged shades.
"General," Grey asked, "who's the kid?"
"Why don't you ask him?" General Pepper suggested.
"Hello sir," Numbuh 1 said to the other dog, "My name is Nigel Uno, I am from Earth."
"I can see that." Bill said surprised. "A human walking on Cornerian grounds is very rare, so if you go out into the city, you might get some shocked looks from the inhabitants, especially since you have no fur or hair on you at all." Nigel laughed, "That happened a few times on the way here."
"My apologies, I haven't introduced myself yet, the name's Bill Grey, Fox McCloud is my childhood friend I'm the one who got him into this planets flight academy, and I'm the leader of the Bulldog and Husky squadrons on this planet called Katina which has good relation with this one, but I am a fellow Cornerian." The bulldog said to Nigel. "But anyway, what's your story, Nigel?" He asked.
"Well," Numbuh 1 started, "I was a lead operative of this organization on Earth called the "Kids Next Door," it's for children nine to twelve years old who fight against evil adults and stupid teenagers who like to see children having no fun."
Bill tried to understand this. "It might sound silly, but we're not to be underestimated just because were kids, I am very good at holding my own against enemies and we've got great weapons and technology." Numbuh 1 said to the Cornerian Bulldog.
"Anyway, I was the leader of the Kids Next Door on Earth, I lead an extraordinary team and we were like a family, but I was then promoted to this thing called the Galactic Kids Next Door, where, to be brutally honest, is very depressing. I left my friends for a place where no one gives me even a hand shake for beating a mission that even a legendary veteran of KND would have trouble with, but I digress." Nigel said angrily before calming down.
"Okay, okay you can stop right there, kid, that's way more than I wanted to know." The bulldog said smiling nervously.
"Anyway Mr. Grey, is the Star Fox team in?" Pepper asked Grey.
"No, their still on that mission destroying what's left of Andross's base, but I contacted them and they said they're on their way back." Bill said.
"Who's Andross?" Numbuh One asked.
"Andross was a brilliant scientist that we Cornerians once respected," Pepper answered. "But then, he wanted nothing but power and control, and it drove him to insanity and he started making dangerous and downright horrible experiments, one in particular almost destroyed this city and for that, we banished him from this planet and to the desolate and long forgotten planet known as Venom, we thought he wouldn't survive a day there, but quite contrary, he's made the planet into his home base, and we always send Star Fox to make sure he never sees this planet in peril."
"Now he sounds like adult scum." Nigel said with disgust.
"Indeed." Pepper agreed.
"Sir," Bill Grey spoke up. "The Great Fox just came in."
"Excellent, their here, Numbuh One." General Pepper said happily. "You're about to meet your temporary team, but forgive me if you feel you're in the minority since you are the only human."
"General Pepper, sir, I felt like that the moment I saw this planets inhabitants." Nigel said smiling confidently.
General Pepper went inside the Great Fox's docking bay and came out of the Great Fox was an auburn fox, a blue falcon, a blue female fox, a toad, and an aging but wise hare.
"Welcome back, Star Fox." General Pepper greeted the group of anthropomorphic space animals.
"General Pepper, sir!" They all said in unison while saluting. "You've done well, Star Fox." Pepper said proud of the team.
"It's time for you to all to take five." Pepper said.
"Thank goodness, that mission was harder than I thought it was gonna be." The leader, Fox McCloud admitted.
"You can never be too careful with Andross, that's for sure." The weakest member of the team, Slippy Toad added.
"Well it's over now, you are free to do what you want." General Pepper said a little too upbeat.
The team looked at him in suspicion. "Uh, sir," Falco said a bit worried, "Are you feeling alright?"
"I agree," Krystal added, "normally, you would just say congratulations and leave it at that."
"Don't worry, I'm fine." General Pepper reassured them. "I'm just a little more happier today, because, I have some good news."
The team gave him their full attention. "The next mission, it won't be just you five, you guys will have a temporary new member."
Star Fox looked at him shocked. "R-really?" Fox asked puzzled. "That's right." General Pepper answered.
"Okay, I'm all for a new member, but, why?" Falco asked confused.
"It does seem like short notice." Krystal admitted.
"Trust me, team, let's go meet him, but I want you to know, he's a little out of the ordinary, follow me." General Pepper told the team. And that, they did.
"Is this recruit any good?" Slippy asked the general.
"Oh yes, he's experienced in both flight and combat," Pepper explained to the team. "He was once a leader of this organization he's in, just trust me he'll be a good asset to the team."
"Sounds good to me." Falco said now interested.
"But the real question is, can he hold out on his own?" Peppy spoke up.
"He can, Peppy." General Pepper told his friend.
"Now that sounds like a benefit to the team." Krystal said.
"Maybe this guy will be good for Star Fox." Fox said impressed.
And with that, General Pepper and the Star Fox came into the foyer where Numbuh One. "Well, where is he?" Falco asked impatiently. "He's right there." General Pepper said and pointed at the little bald boy who was straightening his glasses.
"That bald boy?" Krystal asked. "Indeed." General Pepper answered. "But...he's just a kid, a human one at that." Peppy said.
"And we all know how rare it is for a human to find his of herself on Corneria, right?" Slippy asked out loud for anybody to answer.
"Well let's just go meet him and see what he's done." Said the calm Fox McCloud.
Okay I'm sorry I'm leaving you on a cliffhanger, I know I said the team was going to meet Numbuh one but they at least saw him in the end. Chapter 5 will be here soon, I just gotta brainstorm. And please, oh please review.
