Author: FOXMCCLOUD101 Subject: The Day Of Reckoning,Part I Posted: NOVEMBER 19, 1998 05:56 It was the day of reckoning for the people of Lylat. It was General Pepper who was called forth to make a call to the ever famous Starfox BBS group consisting of four famous and skilled pilots. Leader of the group FoxMcCloud101 who is very keen on homing in on enemies and taking them out with one laser blast. Second in command is the everdacious FjMcCloud, his flying skills are so superior to the others that they just cant compare to him, yet he always finds a way to help the others in case they need him. The eldest and most experienced of the group is MystOut, yet he is the motivator of the group. And last but not least is SovanJedi, he is probably the best help to the Starfox BBS group, he knows everything and can repair their ships in an instant. This the group of Starfox BBS hearing the cry for help from the great general, so they hurried quickly off space station gamma b47319 to their new massive carrier ship called the Navigator I. Inside they find Renewal with their ships covered with a cloth, but they noticed something different about the shape of the ships its not like their old arwings its more detailed by the shape through the black cloth. Renewal told them to get ready for the ride were heading out. FoxMcCloud101 said But are those our ships under there??? Renewal said Wait till we get to Corneria for a big surprise, go rest for now. The Navigator I started up its blasters with a new kind of energy thats much faster then Great Fox. And so they set out on their journey to Corneria across the galaxy known as The Dusty Quadrant. Last time we found the group of Starfox BBS heading out to Corneria. Now we found the group heading through Sector 2436. Alert!,Alert!,Alert! man your stations Navigator I is under attack! The crew of Starfox BBS hearing this rush to the main deck and meet Renewal. Renewal announces to them, no time for the ships rush quickly to the corner decks in the upper and lower decks for the gun defense system. Hearing this FoxMcCloud101 and MystOut rush to the upper decks and SovanJedi and FjMcCloud rush to the lower deck. Using their coms they announce to each other to watch carefully and try to take them out with one shot. As they announced this the bogeys started cluttering the ship from every which angle. The group began to start shooting down these enemies but they started getting overpowered in manpower. In doing so the crew began getting annoyed and started to get sloppy. BOOM!BOOM!BOOM! feeling the lasers hitting the ships the crew was getting slow and fell out of their chairs. Then suddenly Renewal came onto the com. He announced to the group if they couldnt handle it tell him. FoxMcCloud101 and the others said together, WHAT!!! Renewal told them they only had one chance for a weapon deploy that can only be used for every 48 hours. The Navigator I raised its shield and began taking in energy. Suddenly a huge flash of light flared throughout the area and the light was actually a special laser beam called the Planet Killer. The only protection from diminishing the Navigator I was the shield meanwhile the crew looked outside the ship and all there was left of their enemies was space dust. The group was astonished and yet happy. Renewal then said to Starfox BBS, Thats only the beginning of the surprises!!! The crew then went back to their pods to rest as the ship took them towards Corneria. From their last departure the Navigator I used up a lot of energy so they had to refuel their engines. So the crew went to Space Station Retro 41C89 to refuel. They all went off the ship to get some real food for once. But something was not right no one was there to welcome them. So the crew walked around to see if there was anybody at all in particular on the space station. Meanwhile Renewal stayed behind to refuel the ship and make maintenance repairs on the ship. While the crew was walking around they felt as if they were being watched. SovanJedi said to the others, This is really weird where is everybody??? The others shrugged and looked for a cafeteria hall or pods where they thought people would be. But they came up towards a weird sort of door that was in pure titanium and barred with steel. They saw the intercom and picked it up. FoxMcCloud101 spoke into the piece and said, If there is anybody on this ship can you please come to where this intercom Im speaking from and help us out??? The doors opened and it leaded to a dark hallway which was pitch black. The crew whipped out there laser guns and walked forward cautiously. Suddenly a light appeared ahead they ran towards it and ready for anything. They reached the light and saw a whole group of people standing there. FoxMcCloud101 said, Its you StarfoxAlpha what are you doing here!!! FoxMcCloud101s friend StarfoxAlpha go way back when they entered the cadet training program. StarfoxAlpha said, Ive got a group of pilots with me to help you out with Andross, hes taken over Corneria and the nearby planets. It was lucky that General Pepper got out the message, and here we are to help you. The crew and StarfoxAlphas group ran to their ships and departed to Corneria. What will the group be facing when they make it to Corneria??? Find out soon enough!!! Now allied up with the group of StarfoxAlpha's pilots, it seems that Starfox BBS is almost unstoppable but what could be ahead of them. Navigator I was filled up to the brim with ships and crew members when the ship announced, "Now entering the outer breaches of the lylat system." Hearing this the whole group of pilots rushed towards to the windows of the ship. But when they looked outside of the ship they were frightened there was a whole army of billions of Andross's men standing watch for any intruders. They were suddenly changed the ship came to a full stop. FoxMcCloud101 said to Renewal, "We've got to find a way through this or we will perish if they sight us!!!" Renewal announced to everybody, "Remember the little surprise I told you guys about before well here's another one." Suddenly the Navigator I went into a invisible stage, sort of stealth type. And slowly they made their way into the middle of the carnage of soldiers. Renewal told the crew that they had to stay like this for another hour. The reason was to wait for the Planet Killer to be fully recharged. The group agreed to wait for an hour. As time passed it got close to the time of full recharge. The Navigator I appeared, suddenly the enemies realized they've been tricked. The shield went up and BOOM!!! The shockwave of light diminished all of the ships except for the planets. But Andross noticed this from Corneria and sent his men after the group. Seeing this FoxMcCloud101 announced to Renewal, "Is now the time for those new ships???" Renewal told them go ahead and call if you need back up. Will Starfox BBS and the other pilots be enough to defeat Andross??? Find out next time!!! The moment has come for the crew of Starfox BBS. They are heading towards their new ships and Renewal is meeting them down there. As the crew enters Renewal rips off the covers of the ships. Renewal announced to them, This is your new ships they are called the Bearings XLT. They have special weapons aboard such as a multiple laser targeting system for full all around ship shooting. A special Nova Bomb which actually engulfs the enemy whole without no blast and a miniature Planet Killer which destroys only the enemies with a metallic luster that is foreign. Knowing this now the group couldnt wait to try out these ships so they jumped into the arwings. The ships revved up and they departed from the Navigator I and headed down towards Corneria. And following behind the group was StarfoxAlphas group to help them on their quest. As they were entering the atmosphere of Corneria they were disgusted with what they saw. Corneria was left with nothing but rubble left by the buildings. And there was a whole group of Androsss army surveying the area at the time. FoxMcCloud101 announced to the others lets get ready to fight and let the worst to come. The crew of Starfox BBS distracted by the destruction of Androsss army didnt realize that the enemy was heading straight for them. BLEEP!BLEEP!BLEEP! The Bearings XLT sensed the enemy approaching. Noticing this the crew took their guard and it was a flurry of ships all over the place. Starfox BBS and StarfoxAlphas group were all over the place fighting these enemies and soon it got so filled up of ships in one area that it look like a black cloud. FoxMcCloud101 said to FjMcCloud over the com, What are we gonna do we cant tell them apart from StarfoxAlphas team and Androsss army!!! FjMcCloud told him, Lets send a secret tap to StarfoxAlphas group to high tail it out of here. FoxMcCloud101 and the others agreed. The group sent a secret message that StarfoxAlpha would understand. He agreed to Starfox BBS. He gave his team the message and they left for space. As soon as they left the team focused in on Androsss army and powered up the miniature Planet Killer. It powered up and Starfox BBS headed to the middle of the confusion and set the beam and fired. Now that the army was wiped out Starfox BBS headed a message towards Navigator I to relay it to StarfoxAlphas team that they can take it from here. Now Starfox BBS began the search for Androsss base on Corneria. The moment we all have been waiting for has finally come. We can finally face Andross. Said FoxMcCloud101 full of happiness that they found the base of Andross. We can help you with this one!!! Said MystOut, FjMcCloud, and SovanJedi. As they said this a weird but strange group came down from the heavens. It was StarWolfs older and more experienced brothers with ships that had a strange body armor. But even weirder is that they had a carrier ship like the Great Fox which was ages ago. The names of these brothers of StarWolf came over the com. Brother of Wolf, I am SilverBolt!!!, Brother of Pigma, I am Pigtoise!!!, Brother of Leon, I am Turneedle!!!, Brother of Andrew, I am Andrette!!! Now knowing that, they knew they would soon attack Starfox BBS so they all engaged into combat. FoxMcCloud101 took SilverBolt, FjMcCloud took Andrette, MystOut took Pigtoise, and SovanJedi took Turneedle. FoxMcCloud101 knowing that SovanJedi would soon get into trouble, he out maneuvered SilverBolt and headed quickly towards Turneedle and started to move in on him. FoxMcCloud101 started shooting at Turneedle and hit his fuel tank and soon he ran out of fuel and crashed. Next MystOut and FjMcCloud had a clever way to take out Pigtoise and Andrette. They headed for each other at full speed and pulled up and away at the last minute and after that Pigtoise and Andrette realize they made their last mistake and they both crashed into each other. Finally with SilverBolt left FoxMcCloud101 was being followed by him. SilverBolt not knowing what was up ahead of FoxMcCloud101 pulled in on him. Then FoxMcCloud101 pulled away and coming around was MystOut, FjMcCloud, and SovanJedi and they shot at him till the ship fell apart in mid-air. With the team of StarWolfs older brothers gone Starfox BBS headed towards Androsss base. Subject: The Day Of Reckoning,Part VIII Posted: DECEMBER 09, 1998 07:38 The crew of Starfox BBS enters the temple of Androsss. FoxMcCloud101 said to the others, Keep your eyes peeled for anything unusual. The others kept their eyes wide open. CRASH!!! The bricks from the temple started to fall down from the ceiling and FjMcCloud told FoxMcCloud101, Watch out for the bricks!!! FoxMcCloud101 answered, Thanks Fj!!! However all of a sudden a huge dark figure appeared ahead. FjMcCloud replied and said, That couldnt be Andross could it be??? The crew set their boosters to full blast to see what it was. They came up on the huge standing object and it looked just like Andross as if he were a giant but in a metallic luster like a robot. The group hit the brakes fast as this Andross took a swipe at the team. FoxMcCloud101 said to the others, "We've got to get out of this temple to an open space." The group set their boosters to their maximum output and jetted under the Andross look-alike. The Andross started to chase the group in the temple. It seemed like the Andross was gaining on them!!! It started to shoot a laser beam right at MystOut and just missed him. FjMcCloud saw a light at the end of the tunnel. He told FoxMcCloud101, "Look, it looks like a way out!!!" The group headed towards it but before they could make their way out of the temple the Andross shot his laser beam. It streamed past MystOut, SovanJedi, and FjMcCloud, but hit FoxMcCloud101s right wing. BLEEP!BLEEP!BLEEP! FoxMcCloud101s ship system analyzer told him that there is a fire on his right wing. And before he noticed it, he started heading towards the ground fast. FoxMcCloud101 tried to pull the stick back but it wouldn't work!!! Subject: The Day Of Reckoning, Part IX Posted: DECEMBER 10, 1998 07:48 FoxMcCloud101 heading faster and faster towards the ground and he couldn't pull back the stick and he yelled to the others, "HELP!!!" The others screamed back, "NO!!!" FjMcCloud dived towards FoxMcCloud101 trying to save him. "BLEEP!BLEEP!BLEEP! To close to the ground pull back!, pull back!" FjMcCloud finally reached him and swooped under him and started to straighten him out, soon the fire went out on the wing and FoxMcCloud101 looked at the right wing. It was damaged totally!!! FoxMcCloud101 sent a message to Navigator I to beam down a replacement wing. Navigator I beamed it down as the Andross just exited the temple. FoxMcCloud101 told FjMcCloud to head him towards the replacement wing and drop him off to start battle with the Andross and FoxMcCloud101 got his ship fixed up fast. As soon as the wing was replaced FoxMcCloud101 headed towards the battle with the Andross. The Andross's mouth opened wide and FjMcCloud said, "What the heck is he doing???" Suddenly enemy missiles shot out of his mouth. Except these weren't regular missiles these were homing missiles. They started to follow the team and moved in on them. The group started shooting at the Andross but nothing would phase him. So SovanJedi told FoxMcCloud101, "Let's try to make the missiles follow us and hit the Andross!!!" The others agreed and set their boosters at its maximum blast towards the Andross. The missiles followed them as they went towards the Andross, as soon as they got close enough to him they blasted the air brakes with the reverse retros. And the missiles flew right by them and into Andross, and the team shot a special bomb along with the missiles and blew the Andross to smithereens. The crew cheered until they were being shot from above. WHAT?!?! The shooting from above were huge laser beams that just missed the crew of Starfox BBS. At first the crew thought it was Navigator I and they told Renewal to stop. But simply Renewal replied he wasnt shooting at them. FjMcCloud said, "If it ain't you, then who the heck is it???" FoxMcCloud101 looked above them and it looked like the carrier ship when StarWolfs older brothers came around to fight the team. The huge ship came descending down towards the group. As the group noticed this a familiar voice came over the com. "This voice replied to the group, Hah,hah,hah,hah. You puny fools couldnt beat me if you tried!!!" FoxMcCloud101 answered, "WHAT!!! Who are you??? What are you doing here???" The voice said, "Why you little ants, it is me the great Andross!!!" The group of Starfox BBS was shocked. Hearing this FoxMcCloud101 turned really frustrated and angered. He blasted towards the humongous ship in sheer anger for what he heard Andross has done to his father. In complete rage he yelled to Andross, I will revenge for what you have done to my father!!! FoxMcCloud101 swung past the laser beams shot from the ship. And completely shot his whole arsenal to its fullest. FjMcCloud told FoxMcCloud101 to watch out for the ships exciting the cargo bay. The enemies came out by the tens. FoxMcCloud101 rejoined the group and prepared the Planet Killer for its effect to take place. The weapon powered up on each of the ships to the maximum and each ship centered the weapon to create a ultimate blast and fired it!!! WHOOSH!!! The enemies were totally wiped out, but as the cloud of smoke disappeared the carrier ship was still hovering but badly damaged. So the group called to the Navigator I to finish the ship off. The ships laser beam powered up and ZOOM!!! It hit the ship and it towered down and crashed. It was the end of Andross and the group headed to General Pepper for the report. When they got there they were thrown a huge celebration for their bravery. But at the end of the day all of Corneria heard a weird taunted laugh. Who could that be???
