"See anything yet?" Fox said into his headpiece.

"If I did, don'tcha think I woulda told you by now?" Falco answered, "This
is pointless!"

"Slippy saw something on the radar, and Peppy told us to check it out," Fox
said, "So just keep looking."

"Slippy is an idiot," Falco said, "Let's just go."

"At least Slippy had an education," Fox mumbled.

"What was that?" Falco challenged, "You want a go, McCloud?"

"I could take you any day, Lombardi," Fox laughed and waited for his friend's
reply. There was none. "Falco?"

"I think I see something," Falco answered, "Check your radar."

Fox looked at the screen. "It's on the ground," he said.

"What are we waiting for?" Falco said and opened the hatch. Fox saw him leap
from the cockpit and fall to the ground below. Fox grabbed his blaster and
followed.

The two of then stood back to back in a small clearing.

"This way," Falco said and sprinted into the forest. Fox glanced behind him
before following.

"The target should be here," Falco said, looking at his radar.

"I see it," Fox said, glaring as Wolf emerged.

"Hello, boys," Wolf grinned, seeing both of them point their blasters towards
him.

"What is it this time?" Falco sighed, "This is getting old."

"I dont think you're in any position to be saying that," Wolf chuckled and
whipped out a Smartbomb.

Crap, Fox thought. They didn't have time to get a safe distance. As soon as
that bomb hit the ground, they were done for. Fox glanced at Falco, who was
obviously thinking the same thing.

Before they could even consider an escape plan, there was a sucking noise and
Wolf suddenly disappeared. In his place stood Kirby...with his mouth full.

Fox and Falco stared at him with horror for a split second before exploding
into a fit of laughter. Kirby spit Wolf out. He pulled himself off the
ground, panting heavily. He looked back at Kirby, who just smiled and waved.

"You... disgusting little... pink... blob..." Wolf weezed and pointed his gun
at Kirby; his finger on the trigger.

Fox pushed him over from the side and Falco quickly jerked him up and shoved
him against a tree.

"What should we do with him?" Falco asked.

"Let him go," Fox said.

Falco groaned. "Again? We always let him go! Then he just comes back and
tries to kill us."

"Let him go," Fox said again. Falco sighed and pushed Wolf to the ground.

"You're lucky I don't shoot you right now," Falco hissed.

Wolf grinned. "You have no idea what you're up against." He bolted into the
woods. A few seconds later, the Wolfen flew past.

"'Sup Kirby," Falco said, patting his pink head.

"Nice job, you little walking stomach," Fox laughed.

"FOX! FALCO! KIRBY!" They heard someone call. They looked back to see Pit
jump out, followed by some girl.

"So this is Kirby?" The girl asked.

"Yep," Pit answered, "Saki, this is Fox and Falco."

"Let me guess who's who," she smirked, "You're parents must not have been
that creative."

"My parents are dead," Fox said plainly.

Saki cleared her throat. "I... um..."

"Don't worry about it," Fox laughed.

Kirby sprung to the air and landed on Pit. Pit laughed. "Yeah yeah, I missed
you too."

"How come you're not in Skyworld, Pit?" Falco asked.

"Ran away," Pit said triumphantly.

"What?!" Fox and Falco asked at the same time.

"Yep," Pit said, "Grabbed my stuff and flew outta there."

"Palutena's gonna be pissed," Fox said.

"I have a new level of respect for you," Falco said.

"A new one?" Pit laughed, "Did you ever have respect for me?"

"Of course not," Falco laughed.

"What's your business here?" Fox turned to Saki.

Saki glanced at Kirby. "I hate to ruin this rather... annoying... reunion,
but something's up."

Pit gave her a confused look.

"Well there are these two guys after Kirby," she said, "Some oversized
penguin and a guy with a mask and wings."

"King Dedede and Meta Knight?" Fox asked.

Saki nodded.

"I normally wouldn't be surprised that either of them want him," Falco said,
"But both of them? Together?"

Saki nodded again.

"I don't get it," Pit said.

Yoshi ran after a Shyguy holding a banana. He needed that fruit! He was
almost there. He nearly had the guy pinned. Just as he was about to stick out
his tongue, a small red and white ship floated above him. Yoshi stood
dumbstruck with his tongue hanging out of his mouth as the Wolfen landed in
front of him. Wolf trophified him with a single shot of his blaster.

(A/N: poor yoshi! he never got his banana!)

"I should have gone after you first," Wolf chuckled as he shoved the trophy
into his ship.

"Did you get it?" Ganondorf's voice came into his earpiece.

"Yeah yeah," he replied, "How many of these guys do you need?"

"Be patient," Ganondorf answered, "You will get your revenge on Fox and Falco
soon enough."
