TRANSFORMERS ALIENS IN DISGUISE - BOOK IV CHAPTER 1 It had been several days or weeks since the Decepticons attempted to steal and use the SunPack solar battery created by Dr Emmett Brown but failed in the attempt and the device was returned safely to its creator in the end thanks to the courage and bravery of the Autobots. Now on a winter morning with snow covering everything the young engineer William DuWitt dismounted his quad-runner ATV bundled up in coat, snow pants, boots, gloves and cap and gazed in wonder at the white background especially the Great Fox starship covered in drifts so that it looked like a glacier of sorts even the StarFox headquarters was piled with snow except for the main entrance exposed. WILLY: Wow, guess StarFox doesn't know it's winter out here. Boy are they going to be in for a surprise. Then he happened to glance at what at first appeared to be a snowman standing in front of him. WILLY: Wow, that's the biggest looking snowman I've ever saw. Suddenly it spoke startling the teenaged son of David and Susan DuWitt who gasped. SALLY: He-he...not snowman, Willy...snow-bot! All of a sudden mounds of snow went flying in all directions as Sally Acorn appeared in her true form of blue vest, boots & socks as she leered playfully at her new boyfriend who laughed back. WILLY: Ha-ha-ha, oh, thanks Sally. I get the drift. SALLY: Then both caught sight of the other Autobots stepping into view armed with snowballs and ready to fight...Rocket Raccoon, Aries Ram, Falco Lombardi, Monkey Kahn, Tigress, Dead-Eye Duck, Jenny Cat, Lupe Wolf, Bucky Hare, Krystal, Ninjara, and newcomer Bruiser Baboon. Willy grinned devilishly. WILLY: Okay, snow projectiles ready...fire at will! Instantly snowballs went flying in all directions as the StarFox gang began the rumble so to speak. Sally ducked behind an overhang covered with snow as balls splattered against it then peeked back out laughing, sticking out her tongue in defiance when without warning the overhang dropped its load atop Acorn who cried out in shock then sat there half buried in the stuff. SALLY: Hey, that's snow fair! WILLY: Uh-oh, Lupe look out cause Bucky's gonna splat you. LUPE: Huh? BUCKY: Okay...you rat on me, here's a splat on you! He lobbed the snowball that hit William sending him crashing onto his butt then backside as Bucky O'Hare laughed pointing at him in a teasing manner then he himself came under a barrage of balls by Dead-Eye and Jenny ganging up on him. Back and forth the snowball fight raged playfully among the StarFox warriors until they stopped the game to laugh and catch their breaths including Willy too. WILLY: I can't believe I'm having a snowball fight already. Of course winter's already started though. FALCO: So this is winter? KEN: I've never heard of a season by that name. BRUISER: Banana oil! What's all this white stuff anyway? ROCKET: That was fun. NINJARA: Sure was...it was cool. TIGRESS: Yeah, really cool. WILLY: Guess you Autobots never seen winter before. ARIES: To tell the truth, we never had such a weather effect like this one on our world. LUPE: Aye, where it's all white everywhere and also cold too. WILLY: Winter days can be cold sometimes but as long as you dress properly it can be fun. DEAD-EYE: Shiver me timbers! JENNY: What else do you do in winter? William explained how his parents liked to ski alot down slopes and had him take ski lessons himself to learn how to run downhill. WILLY: Skiing and snow-boarding are two winter sports enjoyed by people every year. NINJARA: Amazing, that's new. KRYSTAL: Wow! BUCKY: Hey, anyone want to continue flinging snowballs again? SALLY: Let's get it on! And once again they were going at each other throwing snowballs here and there...William joining in on the fun as well. In the meantime inside the fortress walls of StarFox HQ were Fox McCloud and his 2nd in Command Miriam LeFleur watching the scenes on the monitor screens. FOX: That looks dangerous even though they're not trying to hurt one another. MIRIAM: I'll have Nicole check for weather reports around the globe to see if this is effecting other parts of the planet sir! FOX: Proceed, Captain. NICOLE: Temperatures near below zero degrees, entire planet freezing. FOX: The heat energy from the planet's core is somehow being drained away. MIRIAM: Wolf and the Decepticons. I bet they are behind this menace. Fox nodded knowing his rival adversary was still up to his dirty tricks so to speak in conquering the universe and ruling forever. Speaking of which, in another part of the planet near the Artic Circle the StarWolf terrorists were busily draining heat resources from a crystal stone uncovered from beneath the core of the Earth itself. Supervising the work in progress was Wolf and Fiona Fox. FIONA: All is proceeding on schedule Wolf. Locating the crystal shaft was the hard part but pumping the energy out is more easier than we expected. WOLF: Soon this entire planet will freeze and all life will perish. And we shall return to Corneria with enough ENERGON cubes to dominate the universe. In another part of an icy cavern was Tai Lung the kung fu expert pounding and kicking at an icy wall with Lien-Da an assassin & saboteur watching his every move until she remarked. LIEN-DA: Problems, Tai? Is the big bad ice too tough for you. TAI: I'll show you, dreadlocks lady. All of a sudden a tremor vibration shook the chamber making Lien-Da cry out in alarm as she fought to keep her footing on the slippery surface but landed hard on her butt and backside gasping in pain when suddenly a roaring noise filled the cavern and a huge wall of snow & ice came barreling towards her and Tai who saw the disaster unfolding. TAI: Avalanch, run for it! LIEN-DA: Aaaaaaugh! They both tried out-running the slide but it overtook and knocked them down carrying them along before depositing them against another icy wall. They shook the snow off their bodies and looked around before catching sight of something protruding from another ice wall. TAI: What is that? LIEN-DA: Something's frozen in the ice. FIONA: Why are you standing around for, taking a coffee break? There's work to do. TAI: We, we found something. FIONA: Oh, did you, hmmm... Then Wolf came in behind her to also see what she was looking at. WOLF: So you did. Fiona I want a closer look. FIONA: And you shall have it leader. She used her power ring to melt away the ice covering the unknown alien creature as O'Donnell studied it. WOLF: It appears to be an alien warrior of unknown origin. With its immense size and strength, it will make an excellent StarWolf warrior. Back inside StarFox HQ the Autobots were clustered around as Nicole began showing video images of where it detected the source of the freezing temperatures. NICOLE: An unknown power source located near the Artic Circle. Just then the image passed by some kind of glowing crystal. HIRO: What's that wierd light Nicole passed over? SALLY: Nicole, back up momentarily, there! NICOLE: Some kind of power crystal but its origin unknown at this time. FOX: Then we found the problem. BUCKY: Maybe it's some kind of freakish weather caused by that thing whatever it is. NICOLE: Warning! StarWolf activity sighted nearby. That made the StarFox gang recoil in shock briefly before Fox spoke. FOX: If we don't stop Wolf and horde this planet is doomed to perish. Autobots, transform! In the blink of an eye the heroic warriors from their home planet changed into cars and trucks then with Hiro Hamada, Willy DuWitt and BayMax aboard the cab of the PeterBilt 379 semi the convoy made its way to the North Pole region. WILLY: Artic Circle here we come. HIRO: To stop the forces of evil. BAYMAX: Fighting terrorists is one way to stay healthy and look after yourself. In the meantime within the icy caverns the Decepticons stood around the unconscious being as Kate was using her dark-magic to revive the creature as life support equipment monitored its vital signs. Wolf seemed puzzled, even confused as he asked Fiona. WOLF: Why are you so concerned about this alien? FIONA: Because I knew him once, a long time ago on Corneria. WOLF: You knew him? FIONA: His name is MewTwo. He was once my bodyguard and protector on Corneria. WOLF: That must've been shortly before our final falling out with Team StarFox. FIONA: MewTwo and I were exploring the vast universe when the dark-side detected another planet, this one...Earth. She explained how she and her bodyguard could not sense any signs of life on the surface but when they attempted to look closer it was MewTwo who got caught up in the gravity field and unable to save himself went plummeting down into the atmosphere and disappeared from sight. FIONA: I circled the entire planet searching for him, but he was gone forever. WOLF: And now you have found him again. KATE: Uh, daddy...the alien's starting to regain consciousness, showing signs of life. A big gasp went up from Drago, Sleuth, Simian, Panther, Al, Zod, Lien-Da, Zephyr, Tai, Romero, Kale as all eyes watched the creature stir, groan and move its head about then blink open its eyes several times before focusing on its surroundings. MEWTWO: What happened, where am I? The creature resembling a bipedal feline alien, gray in color with purple tail, two short blunt horns on its head, purple eyes, 3-digit hands and feet, and shoulders & chest that resembles a breast-plate looked around trying to figure out where he was or what happened to him. Then he noticed a familiar mutant. MEWTWO: Fiona, it's you. You've rescued me, but where am I? This is not Corneria. FIONA: No, this Earth where you crashed a long time ago. MewTwo still confused watched as Wolf approached him then addressed the alien. WOLF: I am Wolf O'Donnell, MewTwo. Leader of the Team StarWolf Decepticons from Corneria. We are here to collect energy resources to revitalize our world and conquer the universe. MEWTWO: Conquer, why do you want to rule the universe? Are you at war with someone else. WOLF: We are at war with our enemy the Team StarFox Autobots who keep trying to prevent me from fulfilling my destiny of ruling Corneria. Next he displayed hologram images of McCloud and his gang as MewTwo still puzzled gazed curiousily at the StarFox warriors. WOLF: They are our enemies and must be avoided at all cost or if necessary destroy them. Next he introduced his warriors to MewTwo before performing a ceremonial ritual of attaching a StarWolf Decepticon symbol onto MewTwo's breast-plate. WOLF: And with this symbol, you MewTwo become an honorary full fledge member of the StarWolf clan. Hail Corneria! MEWTWO: Hail Corneria... WOLF: And death to our enemy the StarFox Autobots. MEWTWO: Death... O'Donnell Senior then left with the rest of his warriors leaving MewTwo and Fiona together as the alien bodyguard spoke to its mistress. MEWTWO: Are you proud of being a warrior than an apprentice learner, Fiona? FIONA: Yes, it is far more exciting. And one day I, not Wolf will lead us and you will be my 2nd in Command. MEWTWO: I am grateful and honored for your bringing me back to life. I shall try to repay you anyway I can, master. Not far away the convoy of StarFox was rapidly approaching the North Pole when something caught their attention. It was bright flashes or streamers of colored lights shimmering overhead. WILLY: Here we are, Aurora Borealis the Northern Lights. HIRO: Aren't they beautiful? FOX: Yes, very colorful too I might add. Forward Autobots! BAYMAX: Very pleasing to my optic sensors too...
