The week passed by uneventfully after going through the seven different rumors, and I've been nothing but depressed. Mostly because of a less than stellar encounter with a cheetah. I haven't seen her since and all I can say about it is good riddance. I don't want to go into detail about it right now nor do I want to think about it.

There was another reason for my depression. I could feel the nagging feeling in the pit of my stomach. I was homesick, at least just a little bit. I estimated my time here in the Lylat system to be about a month and a half. Why that's such a big deal is that I estimated it to be around my birthday. I felt like I was missing out back at home. I was turning 18 and was supposed to share it with my twin brother Eric. He must be taking my disappearance the hardest. Not to mention it's one of the biggest birthday's of my life as far as I could tell, and I was pretty sure that everyone back on Earth thought that I was dead. I continued sulking in my thoughts about all this while I stared out into the expanse of Corneria city from the veranda of the Star Fox house. The sun half peeking out from the horizon emanating the golden light of the early morning. I slumped over in depression as I continued looking out towards the beach.

Krystal slowly rose out of bed giving a stretch of her body. She yawned and looked out the curtains blocking the view of her window. She got up and changed into a pink blouse and blue jeans before heading outside to the back yard. The lush green grass felt nice to her bare feet from the morning dew as she looked up into the morning sun. She heard a sigh from behind her and turned around. She looked up to see Ryan on the veranda of the second floor looking onwards not even noticing her. He looked very depressed which concerned her a little bit. She concentrated into his mind and read it silently.

'So this'll be how I celebrate my 18th birthday now huh?' She read and gave a smile. She headed inside with a bright reply to his thought.

"His birthday huh?" She asked herself and gave a chuckle, "we can't let that go unattended, that's for sure." She headed off into the kitchen to get some breakfast while she waited for the others to awaken and she slowly planned some things into her head.

I eventually got out of the trance of my thoughts when my stomach growled. I had noticed that more of the sun was visible and figured that another hour must have passed. I walked inside and headed downstairs to the kitchen. It was there that I noticed that the whole team was there bright and early. All of them in their casual clothes as they nearly finished their breakfast. ROB64 laid out some breakfast on a plate for me and I sat down graciously and began to eat. The others were having different casual conversations with each other which I didn't pay any attention to. I was too depressed for anything. After I finished my breakfast I heard the door open up and a couple familiar voices called up.

"Hey there guys," Bill said waving to us as he took a seat next to me, "how are you doing today Ryan?"

'I'm depressed can't you tell?' I thought but spoke differently.

"Alright I guess." He looked at me for a second and looked back at Fara who had now taken a seat next to me opposite of Bill.

"You're depressed Ryan," Fara stated plainly, "we can tell. If you're still worried about what happened earlier why don't you take a walk? Some fresh air will do some good for you." I looked at her for a second who gave me a smile. It seemed more like a smile of admiration instead of her professional attitude. It was something I started noticing throughout the week. I didn't know if she started finding anything attractive. I didn't think that she was the one to act in that sort of way though. I snapped out of my thoughts quickly enough and nodded to her advice.

"Alright," I replied as I headed out the door, "see you guys in a few hours."

As soon as Ryan headed out the door everyone switched back to the conversation they had earlier.

"So you are sure it's Ryan's birthday?" Bill asked Krystal. She nodded and spoke.

"So we need ideas for him. And we need to get things for him and all of that jazz. Anything to offer?" Falco spoke first.

"We should split up and do multiple things for him. You know we each make a group and take a turn doing something special for him. Plus we need to split up and get some presents and a cake for him to."

"Sounds interesting enough," Slippy said, "how should we do it?" Fox had a smile strewn on his face and spoke up.

"Here's how we should do it. We'll have two groups. Falco, Bill, Fara, and myself will go get a few others and we'll have a little something surprise for him. Slippy, Peppy, and Krystal can get a few others also and try something. After that we all gather together and throw out a huge surprise party after that. Does that sound good enough." They all thought for a second.

"Why don't we do the surprise party first?" he suggested, "then when he knows what's going on then we can split up and do our thing." They thought again for a second and agreed on it.

"Alright here's the plan," Fox said and began speaking out the plan.

Unaware of what's going on outside a few people were busy spying on the group of party throwers. And who better than the Star Wolf team. After the Star Fox group finished speaking their plans they gave a smile and left. As they quickly walked down the street they engaged the subject.

"What do think guys?" Wolf said with a sinister smile on his face, "why don't we give Ryan a surprise of our own?" The other two glanced at each other and nodded.

I walked down the city going through several unfamiliar places. Mostly so I could get myself used to the city so I don't get lost anymore. The many groups of people occupying the area looked at me with interest. They all knew who I was and I received many greetings of respect and curiosity. I never got this kind of attention back at home. I continued on hoping that I could run into one of my friends so I can talk to someone. After a couple of hours I didn't find anyone.

Both groups were currently at the military building busy recruiting the others into their group. Fox's group took Falco, Bill, Fara, Nordic, Kuro, Robert, Nevlamas, DJ, Lucian, and Balze. Krystal's group took Peppy, Slippy, Tri, Adair, Trevor, Kayrin, Kenji, Red, Vincent, and 8. Now that they were both in groups of twelve each they went over the plans again and headed out to their stations.

Fox's group headed out to the market district. This district was full of retail stores containing products manufactured from other planets and the industrial district.

"Alright let's split up and head for the stores we were each assigned to," Fox began, "two to a group now so we all know where we are." Everyone nodded and headed to the their separate ways. Fox ,Falco, Bill, and Fara headed into a swim suit store. Nordic and Nevlamas headed into a nearby weapons store. Robert and Balze headed into what looked like a technology store. DJ, Lucian, and Kuro took off into what looked like a music store.

"I still can't believe that you want me to do this," Fara said looking over a particular piece of swim wear, "you owe me big time."

"Fine, but trust me Ryan's going to like it," Fox replied. Fara ignored him and went into her thoughts.

'This might actually work to my advantage,' She thought, 'maybe if I could just get him alone.' She turned to another particular piece of swim wear and smiled.

Krystal's group were back at the house. They all had left the money they pitched in with Fox's group so they could get the presents for Ryan. It was their job to set up the decorations. Everyone had some spare decorations so they didn't have to spend any time shopping for new ones.

"Alright guys," Krystal said, "you know what to do. We'll get this set up while we wait for the guy we hired to show up."

"So just exactly why did you hire him?" Vincent asked, "does Ryan really swing that way?" Tri, Adair, Kayrin, and Kenji all smiled guiltily. They all knew that was a fact.

"He could fool anybody," 8 said.

"Except Krystal," Red stated.

"I'm going to stay out of this one," Peppy replied.

"I think I'll duck out also," Toad added.

After this they stopped talking and got to work at their stations. Krystal and Adair headed into the kitchen to bake a cake. They chose to make one out of chocolate with vanilla icing. They discussed the design preferences for the icing and the candles themselves and got started. Everyone else set up decorations. ROB64 helped everyone with getting the large banner hung up on the ceiling which read in big bold letters. 'Happy 18th Ryan.' They conversed casually for the next hour until they heard the door bell ring.

"He's here," Krystal said rushing to the door. She opened it slowly and smiled as she saw who she expected.

"Come on in good sir," She said stepping aside.

"Thanks," he stepped in revealing himself to the crowd. He was a rottweiler, standing about roughly 6 feet tall and brimming with a chiseled muscle stature. He was sporting on a white hoodie and some black jeans. He had a small gym bag with him and set it down on the nearby couch. "I brought what you requested."

"Okay," Krystal said, "go change upstairs and then wait there for our signal. Then just come down and do your thing."

"Sounds good," he said, "he's a lucky birthday boy." He winked and rushed upstairs with his bag. The others looked on until he was out of site and they continued on their affairs. 8, Trevor, Vincent, and Red each had started developing naughty thoughts. Both about Ryan and the rottwieler, and between Ryan and themselves.

They continued on for about another hour until they heard the door bell rang again. Krystal walked up to it confused. Unless it was Fox and the others she didn't know who else it could be. She opened the door and to her surprise found that Wolf, Panther, and Leon were standing there.

"Hey there gorgeous," Panther said smiling.

"What the hell do you guys want?" Krystal asked angrily, "and why are back here? You're supposed to be spying on those Claxan people."

"They disappeared without a trace," Wolf began, "somehow they managed to sneak past us. Plus we didn't want to miss this." That last sentence had the tone of sarcasm in it.

"We're you spying on us?" Now Krystal was angry.

"Guilty as charged," Leon said, "we're here to crash it but we're not interested in ruining it."

"Good, then do us a favor and go keep Ryan busy if you can find him," Krystal ordered hastily, "bring him back here in about two hours." Wolf huffed but agreed.

"Fine, let's go." Panther shot a wink as the three left.

Fox got back to the house not to long after. At this time all the decorations were finished and it looked spectacular. Multiple colors were strewn across the room. Krystal and Adair had just finished the cake with gave each other looks of satisfaction about their creation. Tri started putting candles into the cake and Krystal greeted Fox's group.

"Alright it looks like we're all set," Fox said, "and everyone's here."

"Well..." Tri said, "not everyone." Fox looked confused and Peppy tried to explain it to him and Falco. They weren't happy when he finished.

"Well that's just great," Vincent said sarcastically. He pulled out his blaster and accurately pooped a balloon with a shot. Red protested a little as he blew up nearly 100 balloons for this occasion. Slippy looked out the window.

"I'll keep a look out for them," after a second he jumped, "they're here."

"WHAT?!" Everyone shouted.

"Quick hide," Krystal explained and everyone sought out the nearest hiding place. Nearly everyone fit behind the couches while some people had to hide in the kitchen, Krystal and Slippy each his in a bush near the living room window.

"What are we doing here?" I asked. I couldn't understand why the Star Wolf team had taken me back to Fox's house.

"You'll see soon enough," Wolf said. He got behind me and quickly snuck a blindfold over my eyes. I then felt a couple pair of hands grasp me on each side and slowly led me forward. I was completely dumbfounded. What in the hell is going on around here? I heard a door open up and was led inside. I couldn't hear anything as I was ushered a few more feet inside until they stopped me. They pulled the blindfold off of me and what I saw blew me away. Everyone just jumped out of nowhere and shouted out at me.

"SURPRIIIIISE!!!!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY RYAN." My heart pounded fast and my stomach exploded. It took me a while to figure out that they planned out an entire surprise party out for me. But I never told anyone, how could they......... Krystal. Of course, no one else could have known about it.

"Wha.. Wha.." I was at a loss for words, "you guys did all of this for me?" I still had to convince my mind if this was real or not.

"Of course Ryan," Krystal said, "I know it's supposed to be private thoughts for you but we felt that we needed to do this."

"You guys are the best," I replied, "but what are you guys doing here specifically?" I asked the Star Wolf team.

"We're the party crashers," Panther snarled, "we can't crash the party without the party."

"C'mon Ryan," Tri said, "you got presents here."

"Presents?" I asked, "you didn't have to do that."

"Oh yes we did," Falco said leading me to the couch and sitting me in a free spot. Everyone gathered around. Except for Star Wolf, they headed to a corner and looked on plainly at us. There were three presents wrapped in black paper. That was three presents too many. I didn't want or even need anything. But I didn't want to be rude so I reached for the first one. I looked for a name tag but there wasn't one.

"Who got this one," I asked.

"Everything is from all of us," Bill said, "go on open it." I nodded and did so. Inside was a small disc size device. I read the description on the retail tag.

"A music player," I asked.

"Yeah," DJ said, "just put your favorite music into it and play it all you like. You can also sync it into your ship and play it while flying."

"Thanks," I said. I opened the other two presents to see that I got a sword sharpener and another device which Vincent stuck onto both of my blasters.

"This will help cool down your blasters faster," He said handing me back my guns.

"Thanks a lot you guys," I said, "these are all great." After that we all got into the cake. I made a wish in my head like I was instructed and we each got a piece. Except for the Star Wolf team who were busy talking to each other in the same corner. It was very excellent, I felt like giving Krystal and Adair each a reward for such a fantastic creation. Before I could say anything else Fox spoke.

"Okay Ryan. There are a few events that a group of us each have to show you. My group will go first so if you guys can just head out to the back yard we'll get things started." He motioned at a group of people. Star Wolf was the first to head out to the back and half of the rest filed out as well. The only people left inside were Fox, Falco, Bill, Nevlamas, Red, DJ, Nordic, Lucian, Balze, and Kuro. I noticed though that Fara kind of disappeared. I didn't see her with the crowd filing out and didn't see her go anywhere else. Before I could ask I was motioned to the couch from Falco and he sat me down.

"Alright Ryan," he said, "we have a nice surprise for you."

"What do you mean?" I asked, "haven't you surprised me enough?"

"Ryan this is something we do with most everyone when they turn 18," Fox said, "just enjoy the ride." Before I could ask what he means I heard someone behind me turn on some music. The techno beat was nice and steady and was good for break dancing and that stuff. But that's not what happened. I looked around until I saw Fara walking down stairs nice and slowly. She was in her usual business attire but wore an unusually large grin on her. She walked up nice and slowly until she directly in front of me. Then she spoke.

"Happy 18th Birthday Ryan," and with that she whipped off her business jacket. As soon as she did she motioned her body back and forth with the beat and I could tell what she was doing then. She was stripping. I just sat there dumbfounded. This was something I expected my older brother's friends to pull but not these guys. I didn't dislike it though, I was just caught off guard. Then she slowly slipped off her shirt revealing a hot pink bikini top covering her nicely developed breasts. There were various cheers behind me the loudest I could tell was from Falco. He sounded like a drunk frat boy at a party though, I cracked up in a smile and from embarrassment from this show. She giggled a little as she swished around slowly tugging her belt off of her tight fitting skirt and playfully tossing it aside. With one tug of her hand the skirt fell to the ground. Her now visible bikini bottom had matched with her top in hot pink color. She walked up closer to me and sat on my lap. She wrapped an arm around my back and the music stopped playing.

"Okay," Fox said, "I think that's enough."

"You mean that's it?" Falco asked disappointed. This question earned him a few smacks from Fox, Bill, and Fara who was still sitting on my lap. Then she whispered in my ear.

"What did you think for my first time?"

"You did great," I whispered back, "I feel a little awkward though."

"I know a way to fix that," Fara said, "come upstairs with me." I only nodded with curiosity and we both got up, Fara spoke to everyone. "I'm going to show Ryan something upstairs by myself. We'll be downstairs in a while." They looked at her for a bit but nodded. She grabbed her articles of clothes and walked upstairs. I followed her up and looked back down as I did to see Fox giving a knowing smile on his face, like he knew exactly what was going on. She led me into my room and shut and locked the door behind me. She then led me onto the bed before she spoke.

"Now I have you all to myself now," Fara said, "do you know how long I wanted to get you alone. Now I can give you a nice little present of my own."

"Huh?" I asked, "what do you mean? You can't possibly mean..."

"I do Ryan," Fara said, "and trust me, I can guarantee that everyone else is going to give this to you anyway. So why not let me?" It was just as I thought, for she swiftly kissed me on the lips and locked it there. This action was both surprising and predictable to me. I wanted this though, she was beautiful just like Krystal. I returned the kiss with passion and I felt her right hand rub softly against my groin. There my hot erection began forming against the fabric. Eventually she broke the kiss and stood up. She went after my clothes and one by one swiftly undid them all. Soon enough I was in my underwear only and well, that didn't last long. She kissed me again slipping one hand inside my underwear and stroking against my fully erect penis, while the other hand slipped off her pink bra revealing her large breasts. I slipped a hand of my own into her bikini bottom and stroked the surface of her pussy with grace. She moaned a little into my mouth. I could tell she hadn't had any action in a while and that she definitely wanted it. I pulled down and off it came revealing her to the world. Or at least my room, and with that it took her one tug to get my underwear off revealing my full hard on right in front of her. She smiled and grabbed me around the hips. She leaned down to it and grasped my cock in her hands. From here she gave it a few lewd licks on it and stroked it off before she consumed the whole entire cock in her mouth without gagging or breaking her rhythm. She slowly bobbed back and forth sucking me off with vigor. And with one hand she caressed my balls tickling them all teasingly and giving a few light squeezes. I moaned in the pleasure which seemed to tell her to speed up. After a few more minutes I felt my climax getting near but wasn't quite ready for it yet. She stopped all of a sudden and pulled me out of her mouth. She looked up at me and smiled.

"I want you to dominate me Ryan," She said and laid down on the bed on her back. She swished her tail back and forth all nice and invitingly. I took her up on her offer and jumped on top of her. This caused her to giggle a little bit as I got grabbed her legs and pulled them behind me. She wrapped them securely around and I aimed my member right at her entrance. And with a light push I slid right in. I felt the velvety inside coat my penis as I hilted myself inside her. I slowly started a rhythmic thrusting into her and she moaned in delightful protest. I continued my thrusting for several minutes and several moans later when I unloaded a violent orgasm into her. I had to catch my breath for a few minutes after that. I collapsed over Fara who recovered much quicker than I did. As soon as I was breathing regularly again she spoke.

"That was amazing from you. Better than I imagined you would be." She got back into her regular clothes and headed out the door motioning me to follow her. "You still have some more stuff to work with birthday boy." I nodded and headed down stairs after her. There I noticed that everyone else had come back in. I noticed that Star Wolf, Peppy, and Slippy were still outside in the back yard.

"Alright," Krystal said, "now that you're back we can get my groups underway." Fox's group headed outside to the back yard in conversation. Fara shot a wink at me and I winked back. Krystal only smiled at me, I figured she was reading my mind again in her usual playful manner. Now the only ones here were Krystal, Tri, Adair, Trevor, Kayrin, Kenji, Vincent, and 8. I only had a few guesses for their surprise but I had a pretty good guess at what it was.

"Alright Ryan," Krystal said, "are you ready? Vincent go and get him." He nodded and headed upstairs.

'Him?' I thought, 'who's him?' Vincent came back a few seconds later and spoke.

"He's ready." He marched back to his spot and I couldn't help but be a little curious what's going on.

"Is this what I think it is?" I asked them.

"Maybe," Krystal said. She winked and whistled at the stairs. She then turned on some music. It sounded similar to the one Fox played with a few various differences. And then I saw him. A large probably about 6 ft 3 Rottwieler all dressed up in black leather. Great, first Fara and now this. A male stripper. I didn't think it was possible to get one of each gender in a single day. All I could do was laugh as he pulled his own dance routine. This was encouraged with shouts from the others. He shot me a wink as he playfully pulled off his shirt revealing his chiseled upper form. This dog definitely spent his time at the gym with such impressive muscles. I stared on at his six pack which didn't last long as he diverted my attention to his leather pants. With a swift tug he managed to pull them off. The pants were snap ons and all the clothing to see was his blue birthday suit. I could only blush and stare on at the amazing show. He could teach Fara a thing or two about this work. He was obviously was no amateur and was not afraid to show it. After a few more minutes Krystal shut off the music.

"Okay great job," She said, "but we'll let the birthday boy rate your performance." She looked at me and smiled, "go ahead."

"I'll say that was really um... good," I chuckled heartily, "9 out of 10." Everyone else applauded the rottwieler and he bowed. Krystal thanked him and sent him upstairs again. He came back down in some regular clothes and with a wave he headed out the front door. After the performer left everyone else was let back in.

"Time for some games," Bill said, "what should we play first." We had a lot of choices and the day to play away. We started with a chess simo. It doesn't sound as interesting as most people think, but it's actually quite entertaining. Everyone set up a board and I had to play everyone in a game at the same time. I make a move on one board and move onto the next one. And I just continue until everyone's games have ended. Even the Star Wolf team jumped in for this one. I nodded and we played through and after about an hour everyone had finished in defeat. We quickly switched to another game. It actually looked like a variance of Twister. The rules were the same but there were seven colors instead of four. You can just imagine the positions people got into throughout this game. And throughout the playthrough, that's exactly what happened. Once there was one spot where Fox, Falco, Krystal, and myself were in what looked like a very erotic sexual position. I had the evil thought of trying it in my head the next time I had it off with one of them. Krystal chuckled and collapsed under the weight. She was on the bottom and now that she was out it was me on the bottom. We continued the three of us until were completely a pretzel. We actually were fairly close to getting into that shape. I couldn't hold out any longer after that and collapsed. I tripped Fox by accident and sent him on the floor also. Falco collapsed after that. I got up and their was much laughter between my friends. I let everyone else to play their game and looked out the window. The sun was setting. The sky glowing a bright orange from the effect. I stepped outside for a bit and took a look. All I could do was smile. These guys truly are my friends. They really knew how to throw a party and made me feel special inside. I looked up into the sky and thought about home. I wonder how Eric was celebrating his 18th birthday party. I didn't know, I just hope that they're happy now and aren't worrying too much about me. I turned around to head inside when Wolf stopped me.

"Having fun?" Wolf said. He was in his polite tone from back on the Wolfen. That was the attitude of his that I came to admire.

"Yeah, this is great," I replied, "how can I repay everyone for this?"

"Well you can give us an IOU for now," Wolf said, "me and my team have to report to General Pepper about our mission."

"Did you find out anything about the Claxan?" I said. Now my happy thoughts of today were filled with worry.

"No and they moved their base from under our noses," Wolf said, "we did find out something we should warn you about. This is strictly between you, me, Panther, Leon, General Pepper, and the President himself. If anyone else knew about this we risk the public knowing this and causing panic."

"What is it?" I asked. Wolf put a hand on my shoulder and spoke solemnly.

"The Claxan have spies here in Corneria," Wolf said and looked out to the sunset, "anyhow I need to go I'll see you later." He looked at the house and quickly flashed me a kiss on the lips before taking off. I was frozen and filled with worry now. Spies? Here? But how? Wolf told me not to tell anyone but I figured that I had to tell Fox and the others. I began to run back into the house but stopped in my tracks.

'If it's that bad General Pepper will inform us later anyway,' I thought, 'I'd best change my thoughts so Krystal doesn't find out.' I thought about the great party as I headed inside. Everyone seemed prepared to leave and looked tired.

"This was a great party Ryan," Nordic said, "you have a good night." Everyone gave compliments as they headed out the door. Fara shot another wink which made me blush when Krystal was standing next to me. As soon as everyone had left leaving only the Star Fox team remaining, we looked back to see the mess that all 27 participants left. ROB64 had a pretty busy job tonight as the robot began clean up. I couldn't help but let out a yawn from all of the events of the day.

"I think I'm going to head to bed," I said, "good night guys."

"Good night Ryan," Everyone said in unison, "and happy birthday." I headed upstairs into my room. I shut the door and jumped square on the bed. It still smelled vaguely of Fara and I enjoyed it. I got under the covers and inhaled the musky scent slowly as I drifted off to sleep.

"I think I'll hit the hay to," Krystal said. Everyone else nodded and she headed off to her room. There she wasn't actually tired, but she needed to get her thoughts straight.

"So he's had it off with the Star Wolf team apparently?" She told herself, "and now Fara also." She felt a little bad for invading Ryan's mind during the game of twister they played, but she had to know. She could tell he was hiding something from her since their reuniting on the Wolfen. She continued thinking for a bit.

'Maybe the Star Wolf team isn't as bad as I thought it was,' She thought, 'I still shouldn't get involved with them. Maybe they show care for Ryan. I could use that to my advantage.' She didn't take the thought further and turned off the lights before heading off to sleep.

The rottweiler had a smug smile on his face. He continued walking down the road until he was convinced that no one else was around. He looked up at the night sky and pulled out a black communicator.

"Pull me up number 12," he said. After a few seconds he disappeared into thin air. And reappeared into a room. There wasn't much to feature about this room. It was outlined in white and silver but the room was empty. Save for the other person waiting for him.

"Took you long enough number 18," The rottwieler turned to see the female cheetah standing there in a black trench coat. The rottwieler snapped his fingers and his clothes changed into the same trench coat, just one that fit his size. After that he looked at the blood red symbol on one of his dark brown Gauntlets and spoke.

"The Fox hatchet," he began observing the details. "The symbol of our hatred for the Star Fox team and for everything they stand for." The symbol was the head of a Fox but it was slashed with a knife wound through the head. The knife shaped in waves for the blade. The picture was surrounded by a satanic blood circle which completed their insignia.

"Our time is at hand," said a third voice, "number 12, number 18, do you have everything you were required to obtain?"

"Yes number 1," said the rottweiler, "I have some crippling information for you and the rest of the team."

"His sample is already under experimentation," the cheetah said, "it's soo easy to manipulate a human."

"Such worthless creatures," the rottwieler said, "and apparently gay to."

"And you hate gays most of all," the cheetah said back, "we know already."

"Enough," said the third voice as he revealed himself. "Natoya, congrats at your collecting of a sample of Ryan. It's always good to know that your ability to manipulate weak minded men can come in handy." The cheetah nodded to her name. "Mayson, did you get the president's plans?" The rottwieler handed him a red leather book.

"Yep," he replied, "and we have the opportunity to strike coming near."

"Good job," Cougar said, "soon we shall let it be known that the Claxan shall bring down the empire of democracy and fairness, and leave behind only destruction in its wake."
