#9 of Star Fox Chronicles


After flying through the outskirts of Corneria I landed back at the launch site. I got out and walked up to where everyone was, however the Star Fox team wasn't there. I ran up to the tested and asked them where they were.

"They went that way," Kuro spoke to me and pointed to the direction leading to General Pepper's office, "General Pepper said something about a new threat." I thanked him and ran in the direction he pointed at. I started to worry now, someone has shown up here looking for trouble and it looks like we're going to have to handle it. I kept going until I found the office. I walked in to find everyone gathered around a large table. The room was outlined in metal with a large meal table in the middle. Fara, Bill, and the Star Fox team were sitting in respective chairs with Pepper standing near the seat across from the door where I came in.

"Take a seat Ryan," Fara said, "we've got your first assignment." I nodded and sat down in a chair next to Fox and Pepper reached into his jacket and pulled out a small remote. He pressed a button and a hologram appeared, it was outer space with many different stars spanning it.

"There has been a threat of attack from an unknown group," Pepper began, "it's seems to be someone that we've never encountered before. Although because of the situation the President can't make any responses of war to it. We've sent some soldiers to investigate after we traced the source of the signal to planet Sauria. However we lost contact. The group stated though that they have some of the soldiers held hostage and are forcing us to meet there demands." He pressed another button which caused the hologram to close in on one the stars to reveal a planet. It looked kinda similar to Earth also but with plenty of distinct difference. Fara stood up and spoke.

"Star Fox, you're mission is a top priority matter. You are to head to planet Sauria and make way to the Sharpclaw city. That was where the signal was focusing from. You are to find out who this group is, rescue the captive soldiers and get out without being noticed." Everyone else nodded and I did to with a little hesitation. I was never good at stealth mission when I played video games. Now I'll have to do one in real life.

"Alright everyone," Fox spoke, "we'll leave at first light tomorrow so be sure to report to the Great Fox when you're ready to leave." We all nodded and left the room. I spoke to Fox as we walked down.

"So what do I need to know about Sauria?"

"That's the Dinosaur planet where we found you," Fox answered.

"Oh yeah," I said and remembered first showing up here on the planet being surrounded by dinosaurs everywhere. I knew we'd have to go a place called Sharpclaw city and I got even more nervous. I imagined what a creature called a Sharpclaw would look like and that didn't help at all. We got to the entrance and spilt up. I found the tested and Balze sitting around obviously waiting for me and gathered around.

"So what's going on now?" Robert asked. I explained about the mission and what's going on.

"Well," Nordic began, "the only thing I can say is good luck to you." I thanked him and he walked off. Everyone else split up going their different ways. I turned to leave also when Vincent stopped me.

"Hey Ryan," He began, "could you come with me? I need to give you some target practice with your blasters. I haven't seen you use one yet." I thought for a second. He posed a good point. I needed some practice in case something about the mission goes wrong. I nodded and followed him into the shooting range. Various targets were there and he showed me the proper way to handle and fire the blaster. Then told me to give it a try.

"So you're not going to get mad if I screw up right?" I asked chuckling a little.

"I promise I won't," and he grinned. I aimed at a target and fired. The red laser completely missed the target and hit a nearby window. I watched it shattered and widened my eyes in surprise.

"I think we better go now," Vincent said and with that we bolted out of there. As I did I ran into Kayrin. We knocked each other into the ground and I spoke first.

"Sorry about that," I got up and helped Kayrin up, "I wasn't watching where I was going."

"That's okay," Kayrin said and got up, "I was just heading into the shooting range."

"Well," I began, "if anyone asks about me you haven't seen me okay." And with that I bolted down opposite where Vincent had run. I notice through a reflection from the wall that Kayrin was looking at me curiously. I also noticed his eyes trail downwards a little and gave a large smile. I didn't need telepathy to tell what it was he wanted.

'I'll do it later,' I thought, 'I need to concentrate on the mission ahead.' I looked around to see Nevlamas and something was different about him. His scales were now red. Not green like I saw earlier. My curiosity got the better of me and I asked.

"Hey Nevlamas," he heard and turned to face me, "why is your skin all red now?"

"I sheded my skin," Nevlamas began, "Usually once in my species life my scales change color for a while. After that we shed the skin and our natural color comes back. I've always had red scales."

"That's a good look for you," I complimented. He nodded and we went our separate ways. I made another turn and came across the library. I figured a good history book or two will help settle my nerves for the mission. I walked up and down the aisles looking for a good book to read. As I did I ran into Adair. He was sitting at a table with a pile of books and another one in his hands. He looked up and waved.

"Hi Ryan," he began, "found a good book to read yet?"

"Not yet," I said, "I need something to help keep my mind off the mission for a little. I'm a nervous wreck."

"I think I have some books in my room that you might like," Adair said, "come with me." He set his book down onto the table and grabbed my hand. He led me down the hall and made a few turns before he got to a door and opened it. It looked a lot like Tri's room. The big difference is the piles of books spanning the floor. There was still plenty of room to move around in. We got inside and the door shut automatically behind us.

"Go ahead and take a look at what you like," He said as he walked to his bed. I nodded and looked around to a pile of books. He had quite the variety, from fiction and fantasy stories to history books and magazines of different sorts. I looked around for a while for just the right book.

Adair kept looking at Ryan as he looked on. He stared down Ryan's backside and couldn't help but blush at the sight.

I continued to look on until I caught sight of a particular one. It was blue and had the Star Fox team on it. The many adventures of the Great Star Fox team was the books title. I already knew about their adventures from my time with Peppy all last week. However I thought it would be nice to see what other people wrote about it. I turned around to see Adair looking at me smiling a big grin. I wondered what it was he was thinking about. After enough times of doing this I figured what he was thinking. This was no surprise to me but I thought it was flattering and blushed a little myself. I walked over to his bed and sat right next to him. I could hear his heavy breathing as I sat down. I looked at him and asked him a question.

"So what can you tell me about this book?"

"It's a basic overview about the Star Fox team and their many endeavors," He replied, "nowhere near as informative as Peppy was I bet. This book is one of Kayrin's favorites and he's letting me borrow it."

"Cool," I said back and flipped through some of the pages, "you definitely like to read huh?"

"Books are very comforting and don't give you any problems," Adair began, "because of this I don't spend much time with people."

"You just need to get out more," I said, "maybe we can go do something together when I come back from the mission."

"I've been wondering Ryan," I looked at him as he spoke, "is there a special someone that you had back on Earth? Someone that you really liked." I thought for a moment at the question and replied shortly after.

"Not really," I said, "my older brother kept trying to hook me up with a girl but what he didn't know was that I really don't swing that way."

"So you're gay?" He asked.

"Usually," I said, "sometimes I get turned on from the right women." I blushed a little and thought grimly at his possible reactions. This conversation went from random to just plain weird and uncomfortable. Adair spoke shortly after that.

"There's nothing wrong with that," he said and seemed more shy at this, "I mean I kinda swing both ways." I could see him blushing under his fur as he spoke.

"You can't really blame anyone when there's someone as good looking as you around," and then he bent over a little bit like he was getting a little sick. I put a hand on his back and he rose a little bit. I gently began rubbing over his back and I could his breathing getting deeper. He looked up at me and I gazed into his yellow eyes. I quickly gazed at his pants and I knew what it was pushing against the fabric and I decided that I should.

"So beautiful," Adair interrupted.

"The face?" I asked. He shook his head.

"The eyes," he said, "there something nice about them."

"Well yours are yellow," I said, "that's very unique and pleasant." We looked into each others eyes and I moved my head closer to his and eventually I embraced him into a passionate kiss. His muzzle met mine and he seemed to let go. I managed to get my tongue inside and explored his mouth. My breath mixed with him and it heightened my senses as I felt myself become rock hard as it pushed against my trousers. We continued this for a few good minutes until I heard the door open up. My eyes busted open and we quickly broke the kiss and looked at who it was. It was Kayrin, his hand was up to his face looking like he was knocking at the door. He looked at us in total surprise and Adair got up his hands over his face.

"I'm sorry," Kayrin said, "I didn't mean to interrupt anything." Adair went and walked into the bathroom that connected his room and shut the door.

"You're not," I said then looked into the bathroom, "well maybe a little."

"Really I didn't mean to and I don't mind," he smiled guiltily and scratched the back of his head, "I actually like that stuff." I perked up a little at the thought.

"Really?" I asked.

"Yeah I do," he said, "but I don't want to disturb your little session with Adair. I was just going to check up on my book."

"Have you done it before?" I asked him.

"Yeah," he replied, "but I won't go into detail."

"The why don't you and I make him a little more comfortable," I suggested and smiled evilly. I walked up to him and whispered into his ear. After I finished he smiled at me.

"Really?" he asked me.

"Let's do it," I said. We walked to the bathroom and I knocked on the door.

"Can you go away please?" Adair said through the door.

"I just want to talk to you please," Kayrin said to him, "I'm not mad or anything." We waited a couple minutes and then Adair slowly opened the door. He gave a look of total embarrassment and back off a few steps.

"You're not?" he asked.

"Of course not," Kayrin replied, "I even liked what I saw."

"You serious?" I asked. I was trying to play into it even though I relayed this line into Kayrin's ear a second ago.

"Yeah," Kayrin replied on que, "you mind if I joined in?"

"It's fine with me," I said and turned to face Adair, "how about you?"

"I don't know," he said looking a little more embarrassed then before. Kayrin stepped up and gave Adair a small hug. Adair looked up at him in surprise and smiled a little bit blushing. Kayrin cupped his chin and gave him a kiss. I looked on as they kissed passionately and I felt myself getting hard again. It was aching to get free so I did so. I stripped down until I was completely naked and watched as they slowly stripped each other also. As soon as they finished stripping they broke the kiss and looked at me. Kayrin ushered me over and I did so. I got into the hug and felt around their soft fur. I gave Adair another kiss and this time he returned it just as passionate. I closed my eyes to heighten the sensation and I felt Kayrin come up behind me. I then felt his tongue lick the back and left side of my neck. I shuddered a little at the awesome sensation as he felt his hands around my body. I broke the kiss with Adair and turned him around. He leaned his hands around the bathroom counter as I felt around his fur. I came across his firm rump and enjoyed the feel. I looked at him and he nodded. I grabbed my own cock with one hand and aimed it at his tailhole. I poked at the entrance and felt him tense up a bit.

"You need to relax a little," I told him. He nodded and tried his best. I slipped it into his entrance and felt him tighten around it. He let out a gasp of pain as I came in but his gasp seemed to change into pleasure as I slid further. I finished getting my full self in and I felt Kayrin poke his own member at my entrance. I nodded and let him sink it in. He did so and I seemed to enter a new world of pleasure as I was in the middle of a sex sandwich. He hilted himself inside me and I started a slow thrusting rate. Kayrin began his going a little faster and I gritted my teeth. We all let out occasional moans and even though I've done this before I still let out more moans of pleasure. Slowly but surely I sped up my thrusting. Kayrin sped up as well and soon we were at our max speeds. Kayrin was going a rate faster than mine but I couldn't really go any faster. I had both my hands around Adair's hips but managed to snake one over to Adair's cock. I grabbed it and started quickly stroking him off. Adair let out a groan of total bliss as we continued. After a few minutes of this treatment Adair tensed up and moaned more loudly. I felt him shoot out his load and kept my stroking. As I milked him he went tighter on my own member and that pushed me over the edge. I grunted again and let out my load into Adair's ass. After another minute Kayrin's climax hit and I felt his load go into my ass. We slowed down and all of us caught our breath. After a minute Adair spoke first.

"That was amazing," he said in between breaths, "I've never done that before."

"You were a virgin?" I asked. He nodded and I smiled back at him. I serviced two virgins in only two days. I felt good about myself as I also got to know Kayrin a little more to. We got up and I changed back into my uniform and the other two got on their clothes two.

"I need to go now," I said, "Fox and the others are waiting for me." I looked at them and they nodded and waved goodbye. I walked out of the room and made my way back to Fox's house. I got there a couple hours later and did the usual. I ate dinner and beat everyone at a game of chess. I then got to my room and fell asleep, thinking about what is going to happen tomorrow when we go for the mission.

Later that night while Ryan slept, Krystal and Fox went into a spare room downstairs to talk.

"You worried about Ryan?" Krystal asked.

"This is his first mission after all," he said, "I have total confidence that he'll be fine though. I'm not going to exclude him because of the danger. I already learned that mistake when I told you to leave. I'm still sorry about that though."

"It's okay really," Krystal said and gave Fox a hug, "I bet Ryan's more nervous than you are. It's up to us to give him all of the confidence he needs to successfully complete the mission."

"How do you suppose we do that?" Fox asked all curiously.

"Let's face it," Krystal said, "both of us have had it off with Ryan once before right?" Fox reminded himself about Krystal's telepathy and nodded.

"Then let's give him a little surprise." Krystal said and whispered into Fox ear. His ears perked up as she spoke and he gave a grin.

ROB64 let off an alarm which awakened all of us quickly. I got up with my uniform still on. I rushed to the bathroom and straightened out my hair and cleansed my teeth like normal. We ate breakfast quickly and headed to the base. ROB64 came with us and we soon got to the building. I followed the rest of the team and we got to the flight area where the Great Fox stood in all of its glory.

"All of the Arwings are secured in the ships hangar bay," Slippy said.

"We have a full stock of fuel cells we can use for quick travel," Peppy said, "unlike when we found Ryan when we came up short." I thought about the amount of time it took us to get to Corneria from Sauria and thought how much faster we'd be going. I saw General Pepper and Fara look on at us as we boarded the ship. Pepper saluted me and I saluted back. I ran into the ship and followed the team quickly to the bridge and buckled in.

"ROB," Fox spoke firmly, "initiate take off."

"Take off initiating," ROB spoke, "begin countdown. 10, 9, 8..."

"You nervous Ryan?" Falco asked me as he buckled into his seat.

"Not in the least," I lied as I have never been this nervous before in the past.

"7, 6, 5, 4..."

"Here we go Ryan," Krystal said.

"3, 2, 1..."

"Lift off," Fox shouted shooting his fist into the air. I felt the ship jerk under me and we were off. The speed was tremendous. I looked up as I saw the morning sky get darker and darker until all I saw was the stars.

"Leaving Corneria's orbit now," Peppy stated, "congrats, we've successfully taken off." Everyone unbuckled his or her seat belt and got up from his or her seat. I followed suit and stretched a little. Now I was even more nervous about the mission.

"I'm going to take a little walk," I said and walked out of the room.

As Ryan walked out Fox and Krystal nodded to each other. Falco noticed this and spoke.

"Are you guys doing what I think you're doing?" They both looked at him and chuckled and then left the room. As they did Falco snapped his fingers at himself.

'Aw man I was hoping I could get another crack at him first,' He thought, 'maybe I could.....'

I continued to walk until I got to my room on the ship. I collapsed onto the bed.

'Alright Ryan this is your first mission. Let's not screw this up just think positive thoughts. I know let's think about chess for a bit. A mind game against myself...' someone knocked on my door and I got up.

"Who is it?" I asked.

"It's us," I heard Fox's voice, "can I come in."

"It's open," I said and saw the door open up and Fox and Krystal walked inside. They walked up to me as the door shut, "what's up?"

"We just wanted to see how you were feeling," Krystal said, "are you nervous about the mission?"

"You should know," I said with a small chuckle, "I'm a total wreck."

"I bet we can fix that," Fox said.

"How?" I asked. Krystal nodded and leaned me down into a kiss. I knew then exactly what they meant. I returned the kiss and let them take me over. Fox motioned around and rubbed my shoulders. I relaxed myself and felt my uniform jacket being taken off and I was slowly motioned onto my back. Krystal then broke the kiss and made her way down taking off my boots and socks. Fox slid my shirt off and I lifted my arms up to make it easier. Then it was his turn to kiss me as he grabbed the back of my head. They were both excellent kissers and I loved every minute of it. I continued kissing him as Krystal got my pants leaving only my briefs. Fox broke the kiss and they each grabbed side of my underwear and pulled it off revealing my rock hard member. They both got up off the bed and grasped each other. I knew they wanted to put up a show as they kissed each other. They kissed in wild passion and slowly stripped each other down until they were totally naked. Then they both surrounded me and explored my body with their hands. Then they both leaned into a kiss with me. The kiss turned into a three way free for all as I didn't know whose mouth I was exploring as we continued wrestling tongues with each other. After another minute Krystal broke the kiss but Fox continued. I felt my cock then getting handled from Krystal and then a warm wet feeling encasing it. She was sucking me off and it never felt better. I felt my head getting a little lighter because the whole time Fox never broke the kiss. I continued with his reign of passion until I let go. She seemed to swallow the whole load and got up. Fox broke the kiss and lifted me up a little. Fox then slid under me until his hard cock was lined up with my ass. He then lowered my back onto his chest as his member slid up into me. Both his arms grasped my upper arms and he breathed onto my neck. I took in the scent and got myself hard again. Krystal then got on top of me and kissed me again. This time she didn't let go as Fox began a quick paced thrusting into me. I moaned at this as my aching erection got fully erect again. Without breaking the kiss Krystal motioned her body so my cock was aligned with her vagina. She then lowered herself down onto me still not breaking the kiss. She slowly rose her body up and down until she to got to the fastest pace. I was now completely consumed in the middle of another sandwich and she finally broke the kiss letting me get a little more oxygen. She rose up and grabbed my hands and making them feel around her breasts. I gently squeezed them and she moaned in delight. I felt her orgasm and the juices coated my member making the sensitive pleasure push me over the edge. She got out and fox stroked me as I felt him orgasm into my ass. This feeling caused me to orgasm and Krystal consumed it yet again. After the intense scene we collapsed and as Fox's member shrunk he pulled out of me.

"Feel any better?" Fox asked. I nodded and slowly got up. I walked to the bathroom and showered myself clean.

Fox and Krystal winked at each other and gave each other a good kiss and walked out of Ryan's room. Meanwhile, Falco was thinking in his room. No one was aware of what he was planning.

I finished showering getting the smell of sex out of my system and got my uniform back on. I lied back down onto the bed and thought for a bit. Fox and Krystal were right. I did feel a lot better and was ready to take on the mission. Before I could think anymore I heard Peppy on the intercom.

"Ryan," he began, "we've reached Sauria. Please report to the bridge." I quickly got up and made my way back up to the bridge. As soon as I got there everyone was gathered in a circle.

"Alright Ryan," Fox began, "before we get on with the details we need to give you a few more things. Here, put these on." He handed me a pair of black gloves. They had holes where the fingers were so I could still see the fingers when I put the gloves on. It felt snug and natural on my hand not to mention comfortable. The grip on the gloves were excellent and should help me a lot. After that fox handed me a hex shaped disc. It had a small blue gem in the middle.

"This is a deflector shield," Fox said, "put this on your belt." I did so and then he showed me how it works. I gave it a try and summoned a blue light in front of me. It glowed brilliantly and held a hexagonal shape. As it showed up Falco fired his blaster at it only to find it reflected away.

"That's cool," I said, "anything else." Fox nodded and handed me another disc. It was round and had a small clear center.

"This is a communicator," Fox said, "it allows you to contact us with audio and video holograms. It also serves as a universal translator so you can understand and speak the different languages here in Lylat. Like on Sauria the dinosaurs speak their own language. It also allows us to track your position and it can tell your vitals. To contact us or to receive contact from us just press the button in the center." He showed me how all of the different buttons and works of it and when he was finished he spoke again.

"Now you're all prepared," I looked at my uniform again in amazement. My non-sleeved tan uniform jacket over a thicker more snug copy of my short sleeved black chess shirt under it. Black pants dead similar with Fox's green ones. A tan belt with two holsters both containing my custom blasters. With the belt now had my attached shield and communicator. I looked down at my dark brown boots in new admiration and then examined my gloves. I never felt more prepared for a mission of this before in my life. I actually had confidence. I glanced behind my back with my sword connected to it. All snug in its navy blue sheath and the brown belt connected to it wrapped around my torso so the hilt of the blade popped into view from my right shoulder. I smiled in enjoyment and Falco spoke.

"Now he's ready," and everyone gave smiles and cheers of admiration.

"Now then," Fox said, "here's what you need to do for your mission. You'll fly your Arwing down to Sauria, once you land check your map and follow the directions to the Sharpclaw city. Ask the locals for direction if you need to. Once you get there you'll need to do some sneaking around. Try to find the captive soldiers and get a good look at the leaders of this group. Once you get there leave and signify us, we'll come and once we get there we'll team up to get the soldiers out of there. We'll need to make a plan based on the situation from then. If something goes wrong and you are caught or being chased press this button on your communicator. This is a distress signal and we'll break the mission plan to come to your aid." He pointed at the specific button on his communicator and spoke.

"Do you understand all this?" I nodded in agreement. "Good, then head to your Arwing. Just make your way down to that planet right there. You should land in a place called Thorntail Hollow." He pointed out the large window which showed planet Sauria.

"Yes sir," I said and saluted him the same way General Pepper did with me. I then rushed down to the hangar bay and caught sight of my Arwing. I got in and took off in it slowly. I was extra careful because this was my first real flight into space. I seemed to do it alright as I flew it down to the planet. Soon as I got closer I saw the darkness of space fade away as a clear blue sky appeared overhead. I recognized the place that I was landing at. It was the same place that I had first shown up that. I landed the Arwing in a soft patch of grass. I shut off the ship and opened up the latch to the window. I got out and took a look around the place. Nothing seemed to have changed from my last visit here. The usual stream of Dinosaurs that were living here were still there. I picked up the communicator from my belt and activated the map. I noticed a red spot blinking were I was supposed to go and also saw a yellow star. That was supposed to be my current location. Next to my yellow star was a small blue ship. That happens to be my Arwing showing up on the map. I closed the map and put the communicator back onto my belt and walked in the direction that I was to go in. I shortly ended up in a forest area. I took a look at the map periodically and kept going. The walk lasted a good five hours and I found myself on a clifftop. I slowly edged myself to a clifftop and peeked my head over it. What I saw was a large camp. A huge stream of black tents were there and I saw some smoke rising up from the camp. I looked past it to see a good sized city and figured that it was the Sharpclaw city. I need to take a closer look at this camp before I head into the city. I looked around and noticed a small visible trail leading down the cliff. I followed it and after another half an hour I found the bottom and hid in a pile of bushes. I took a look through them to see a group of people. There were a bunch of various species all wearing heavy brown coats. I noticed on their right arms were a black arm band. The band had a strange red symbol that I couldn't really tell what it was. They all carried rifle like guns and had them shouldered like they were protecting something.

I kept looking around as best I could looking past the patrolling guards. I caught site of a campfire and I saw someone in slightly different garb. It was a cougar and he seemed to be talking to someone. I looked at my surroundings to see that the coast was clear. I then snuck around and hid in a bush closer to the cougar. I heard him talking and looked through the bush to see who he was talking to. The person he was talking I couldn't describe. He was wearing a black mask making it impossible to see who or what it was. I listened in on the conversation.

"It seems he still won't talk. And the Cornerians aren't taking the threat seriously," He turned around to where a couple guards were standing. I notice they were holding an unconscious person in between them each holding an arm. I recognized the unconscious person as a Cornerian soldier. His uniform was battered and torn and seemed a little blood stained. I looked a little longer to see that he was but couldn't see at this angle. The cougar spoke in a calm deep voice.

"Take the boy back to his tent." The guards obliged and carried him off. I snuck around again following them. I knew about the leaders and now to find where this guy and the other soldiers are being kept.

The cougar looked as they carried the boy away and looked back at the figure.

"It looks like we have an uninvited guest," the cougar said, "I guess we better deal with him." After that the cougar snapped his fingers.

I continued to follow them a little bit behind and still hidden. They finally stopped at a tent and threw the guy inside.

'Bingo,' I thought to myself. The guards walked off and no one was around to keep watch. I knew my job for now was done and I made to sneak back up the cliff. As soon as I got up I heard a twig snap behind me. I quickly turned around to see a large bull behind me. It was too late as I found him swing an axe and felt it collide right against the right side of my head. I felt myself get knocked off the ground and spun in midair. Everything became black before I hit the ground.
