"You sure that your going to be ok?" Crunch was looking at me with the puppy eyes look trying to stop me going on a short break down to the Earth.
"Yes Crunch I'm going to be ok I'm only going for a week what is the worst that could happen?" saying this I threw a bag into my ship and gave Crunch a hug. None of us had spotted the hooded stranger sitting on a crate in the corner grinning.
"Oh wouldn't you like to know Tiger heheheheh" talking to himself quietly so me an Crunch didn't know he was even in the room.
Jumping into my ship the main doors opened, I waved at Crunch just as my ship flew out of then station. Crunch hadn't noticed Cortex walk up to him.
"He's a strong DemonFox I'm sure he will be ok" Crunch looked at him and smiled. "Onto other matters, it shouldn't be long now before you have to use Wawa the water elemental." Watching the hooded stranger stand up and walk up next to Cortex, Crunch got the same warm feeling again.
"Cortex will you please tell us who this guy is" Shaking his head Cortex just smiled.
"No Crunch he will say when he is ready, anyway I hope you don't fail me this time as the only other bandicoot who could use the masks was Kai and he's been missing for over 5 years now." Crunch looked confused as Cortex walked out of the room.
Still standing there the hooded stranger just grinned.
"You're Kai aren't you? Is that why we won't be told your name?" Still grinning he shook his head and started to walk out of the room.
"If I was why would Cortex have made you?"
Laughing to himself the stranger walked out and down the corridor, poor Crunch standing on his own more confused than ever.

After I had unpacked my stuff at Reko's house I decided to go for a little walk.
"humm this place looks familiar for some strange reason" I was walking through a forest of some sort, it had a horror sort of feel to it, I mean the trees had no leaves, it was night time, there was a full moon and the ground level was covered in fog, it was quite scary being there yet fun and exciting too.
My ears perked up to the sound of oncoming footsteps and growling noises. Trying my best to look ahead I only was able to make out a moving shape. As it got closer I was able to make out more details like they were male had longish black hair, well muscled and had dark goldy-brown fur. Grinning to myself I knew this was a bandicoot running my way.
"I'm sorry sis I didn't know" his voice was deep and sounded out of breath. Looking behind him I spotted another shape before it faded away. I stepped to the side as the bandicoot ran past me, looking at me for a split second and carried on running.
Smiling to myself I knew what time of the year it was.
"Right if that was Creep running in a hurry so she must be here in a min." me saying that couldn't have been any better as that moment I saw a Werecoot come running, growling and wearing a ripped black top and trousers with her black hair flowing in time with each step.
Running past me she looked at me, being nice I just smiled and said "Hi Ash", while still running I got a "Hi Tiger" back as my reply.
Running ahead a bit more she stopped and looked at me before walking back to me. Walking right up to me she poked and walked around me getting a good look at me.
"Tiger, is that you?" I couldn't keep it in I just burst out laughing. Quite a bit away Creep's ears perked up and listened to me laughing before slowly walking back to where he had seen me.
"*Still laughing* Yes Ash it is me, long time no see " Ash had changed back to normal and hugged me before rubbing her fist on the top of my head.
"Yeh just a bit too long you little furry bugger." Standing there Creep looked confuse and scratched his head.
"Ok can someone tell me what's just happened?"

"Are you sure this is safe?" Holding a shotgun, Crunch was watching Pinstripe throw different types of guns across the room.
"Yeh I do this all the time and nothing have ever gone"....BANG!! One of the guns went off shooting and smashing a vase that was on a table.
"Heh.....there is always a first" running and picking up all of the guns before walking back and putting each one away. "Let's hope that Cortex didn't hear that."
Crunch handed him the shotgun before walking out of Pinstripe's room.
Talking to himself Crunch was thinking about the hooded stranger and wondering if he could be shot dead. Walking past a window Crunch looked down at the Earth and remembered me.
"Humm I wonder what Tiger is up to?" At that moment Crunch had that feeling for the 3rd time and heard someone laugh behind him.
"He's probably sleeping with Crash right now unless they are having fun." Growling Crunch turned around and brought his fist up ready to punch him.
"Don't you ever talk about Tiger like that!" There was some haziness in Crunch's voice as he though, what if it was true?
"Humph your not gonna hurt me are you, I know he will do that and so do you." Grinning the stranger watched as Crunch punched him at full force right in his face. Flying across the room and hitting the wall with such force it made a crack.
"Ahhh you fucking asshole!" holding his face he stood up, his hood had fallen off revealing his face.
Removing his hand Crunch was able to get a good look at him. His hair was medium length and was light blue with dark blue tips which was covering his different coloured eyes. His right ear with a single red stud in it and the left with a speaker and microphone.
Looking pissed the stranger made an icicle appear in his right hand. "I'll fucking kill you!" Just before he could throw it Cortex walked down the corridor and spotted them both.
"What is going on here?" Both of them looked at Cortex before the stranger grinned.
"Nothing Cortex I was just introducing myself to Crunch that's all" The icicle disappeared and Crunch gave the stranger a look, noticing his fur was a white light blue mix and some of it was a whitey gray colour.
"Ah very well then if your introducing to Crunch you might as well tell everyone." Nodding the stranger walked past Crunch grinning again.
"Oh and the name is Kai Bandicoot and u best remember it."
Growling Crunch just walked past Cortex pushing him out of the way.
"What in the world has rattled his cage?"
