Star Fox 2
-synopsis-
The Star Fox mercenary organization meets its match when the Great Fox encounters surprise anti-spacecraft fire from the war-torn planet of Coolplanetnamehereia. As the massive carrier hurtles through the atmosphere and into the sand dunes, the Star Fox team finds themselves as a neutral party amid the four warring factions present on Coolplanetnamehereia.
-a vignette-
Immediately after regaining consciousness and digging themselves from the sand, the team contacts General Pepper for extraction. They are met with a quiet, cold, "I can't know you right now." The galactic geopolitics of days past have changed, and as a public figure, General Pepper can't be connected with the deadly Star Fox Team.
So, with their line to the resources of the Lylat military severed, the situation is beginning to look grim.
A long Coolplanetnamehereian night passes, and food is running low. As the first sun of Coolplanetnamehereia rises, so does a form on the shimmering horizon. From the bridge of the Great Fox, the team watches through the broken windows as an entire battalion advances and surrounds the crash site and trains their barrels directly at the Great Fox. The commanding officer steps from his transport, past the hundreds of gun barrels, and calmly approaches the crashed spacecraft.
"Permission to come aboard, Mr. McCloud!"
After a moment of exchanging suspicious glances with his teammates, Fox peeks over his cover and replies.
"I take it our reputation precedes us!"
"Of course! Why do you think I shot you down?"
Falco's eyes widen. "What were you thinking!" He shouts over the cover. "Why would you shoot us down? We have hailing frequencies, you know!"
The officer chuckles a bit. "You misunderstand. We are not a, how you say... rich people. We prefer to acquire services such as yours by... Different means."
Fox's stomach sinks.
"They've got us over a barrel here, Fox," Peppy murmurs. "We're outnumbered and outgunned."
From outside, the officer offers more insight into the situation. "Your lives are a liability to us unless you align yourselves with my freedom fighters, Mr. McCloud. I certainly hope we can do business. Unless you wish to fight us here and now..."
The sounds of safeties being switched off accents the word "now."
-the hook-
And so, left with no other option, the team concedes and agrees to fight for the "freedom fighters," or at least feign allegiance(s) until they can escape.
