Star Fox Chronicles: Chapter 23: The Magus Sisters
#27 of Star Fox Chronicles
The morning just seemed to be too quiet. It was early in the morning, just as the sun Sol was beginning to rise into Corneria City's view. The only sounds heard around this time of the morning came from the nearby gymnasium, with the sounds of clashing steel ringing in the air. It was the perfect time of morning for an early sparring session with Angulo, whom I've come to admire as a really close friend. His swordsmanship was one of the best in the land, probably only matched by Nordic and the Star Fox and Star Wolf teams. After another few minutes of clashing swords we decided to call it a morning.
"That was some of the best fighting I've seen in a long time," Angulo said, "you've been given a break today, so you can do what you want to now."
"Thanks," I said giving a quick high five to the horse before taking off. I notice practically all of Angulo's clothing consisted of black skin-tight shirts and loose pants. It complimented his white fur quite well, although I didn't pay much attention to that bit. I walked into the locker room and showered myself off, and changing into some casual clothes. As I did I began wondering and noticing changes in myself. When I first got here I was what people call normal nerds, I wasn't that strong nor was I aware of any magic powers. Now I noticed that I had gotten a more toned build with some noticeable muscle, although I still seemed slim all the same. This proved true with my sword abilities as well. When I first got here, I could barely lift and swing it with both my hands. Now I have no trouble using it at all with only one hand, freeing my other hand to do other things and use magic. My magic also made a considerable improvement. Everyone's efforts have taught me a lot of stuff, as well as boosted my magical vitality by at least 3 fold. A couple fire spells would completely wipe me out for the day, but now one spell at that level barely tired me at all. I left the gym satisfied on all that I managed to accomplish. Just as well I even killed four Claxan members.
"Good morning Ryan," I heard Krystal say as she approached from behind me.
"Hi Krystal," I waved, "what are you up to?"
"Oh nothing," she said, "I don't really have anything to do so I was wondering if I could tag along for a little while."
"I don't see a problem in it," I said to her. We went walking along the beachline enjoying the morning view. We didn't say much but I knew she could tell what I was thinking. I mean she always does with her mind reading abilities.
"Look who Ryan," Krystal said pointing to a loan figure. I looked on to see that it was Kuro who was looking out towards the ocean. It had been a while since I last talked to him, so I decided that I was going to see how he was doing. Krystal knew my intentions and decided to follow, an evil smile forming around her face.
"Hey Kuro," I said loud enough for him to hear. He saw me and faced away a little bit.
"Hey Ryan," he said, "been a while."
"Yeah," I agreed, "What've you been up to?"
"Oh nothing," he said, "just enjoying the morning, thinking about the waves." Krystal giggled about that last statement.
"Alright then," I said.
"Smooth," Krystal said to him and then she seemed to point me towards his pants. I noticed now that he was hiding an erection, and a hard one by the looks of it. We both giggled and Kuro noticed.
"Hey wait," he said stammering a bit, "I can explain."
"I already know," Krystal said, "I know you're imagining us right now."
"Really?" I asked curiously.
"Y-yes," Kuro sighed. He seemed distressed about it now, like someone knows something about him that we shouldn't.
"Don't worry about it Kuro," I said, "we can keep a secret, right Krystal?" She nodded and Kuro seemed relieved.
"That's good," he said.
"Well is your done talking," Krystal said, "I know a secret spot on the beach where we can go for a little fun." I knew Krystal was being devious now but Kuro thought it might be fun.
"I can't see why not," he said and smiled. Krystal and I glanced at each other thinking the same thing. Score, we both grabbed him by an arm and led him away. More like Krystal led the way because I didn't know about this place either. Soon we were in an area closed off by lots of water and cliffs, leaving us with only a small hidden patch of sand. I have to admit it was a pretty good spot to do naughty things. Krystal wasted no time in pulling Kuro into a deep passionate kiss, dancing both their tongues as she stripped herself. I took advantage of the situation by sneaking up behind him and stripping him down, making them break the kiss just long enough to get his shirt off. Once both of them were naked they converged on me. I began sharing a kiss of my own with Kuro while Krystal stripped my clothes down and off. We were all naked, horny, and ready for some fun. I broke the kiss with Kuro and snaked around him, massaging his back as Krystal got right up to him and allowed him to enter her. Kuro took advantage of this and pushed in himself. Then I wasted no time in penetrating Kuro's ass. Krystal and I glanced at each other in confirmation and quickly sandwiched him. Krystal and I thrusted into him within sync, which got the result I was looking for as he started moaning in great pleasure. After a few minutes of sandwiching him, Krystal let out a moan as she climaxed onto Kuro's member, causing him to climax shortly after. He gave a clench on my ass as he climax and I moaned in pleasure as I climaxed, filling him with my seed. We took a few minutes coming down from the climax as we kissed a free for all. When we finished I gathered my clothes and told Krystal I'd see her later. I wasn't going for sex all morning plus I needed breakfast. So I left the secret spot leaving Krystal and Kuro to have some more fun.
I found a nearby cafe serving a breakfast special. I decided to step inside and have a look around.
"Hey Waiter," I said, "I'll have the special." I looked around and spotted two certain people who waved at me. I took a seat at their table with a smile on my face.
"Hey Kenji hey Robert," I said, "how's it going?"
"Ryan," Robert said, "just the man we were looking for."
"Yeah," Kenji agreed, "we have a surprise for you."
"Really?" I asked, "What?"
"We'll show you after you finish your breakfast," Robert said. I nodded and finished my breakfast quickly when it was handed to me and Robert and Kenji escorted me away. They led me to the military building where their garage was.
Kenji clapped a hand across my eyes and led me into their garage while Robert opened up the hangar door.
"Open them," Kenji said as he removed his hand from my eyes. I nearly collapsed at what I saw. It was a large sleek black motorcycle that fitted my size perfectly.
"Holy cow," I said, "is this really for me?" I asked them and they both nodded with a smile.
"We spent quite a long time working on it, we thought you were most worthy of its greatness. Plus it's better than trying to use your arwing to get around."
"You can thank me later by letting me fuck you," Kenji said nudging my shoulder with a smile.
"Thanks a lot guys," I said getting on it to get a feel for the seating, "let's test this bad boy out." Kenji and Robert opened the large hangar door revealing a large test track. It was about twice the size of a standard Nascar racetrack I used to see.
"To start it, you only need to hold your hands on both handles, it starts on DNA recognition so it can't be used by any regular old person. It's only custom built for you." Robert explained and I did so, turning one of the handles and the engine instantly came to life. I kicked off the brake and took off, doing some small circles and figure eights and figure who knows what around the small area, until I got a feel for the controls. Once I stopped I noticed a couple people were watching me and they approached. I instantly recognized them to be Vincent and his little brother Mach.
"Hey Ryan," Vincent said, "sweet ride."
"You like?" I asked, "Kenji and Robert made it."
"Expected nothing less from master engineers such as them," Mach said.
"True that," I agreed and Kenji and Robert came up from behind.
"Now to test this out for real," Robert said.
"How?" I asked.
"Isn't it obvious?" Kenji asked, "we'll have a race. Our speeders vs. your motorcycle."
"You're on," I said and turned to the two brothers, "you're welcome to race to if you want."
"Sure," they both agreed and each took a speeder when it was brought out. Then
Robert and Kenji each took their own as we got to the starting line. It was Mach who did the countdown.
"3... 2... 1..." We all revved our engines ready for the signal. However we didn't get it as Mach sped off ahead of us with a chuckle.
"Hey," I shouted and took off after him. The acceleration on the bike was excellent and top notch, as well as the apparent max speed. It didn't take me long to catch up with Mach, although the others were very close behind. After a few laps we got to the starting point and stopped as the sky very quickly got dark. I knew from the unnatural speed of change that something was going on. We stopped and got of our respective vehicles as we began hearing high-pitched cocky evil laughter.
"Show yourself," I said and summoned my blade to my hand. All of a sudden we had three females appear in front of us in the Claxan uniform. All three were different sizes but they looked completely human. I was even more surprised when I looked at their ears to see that they were pointed.
"Elves," I said and the others looked at me confused.
"Elves?" Kenji asked confused, "there are elves in the Lylat system too?"
"Not necessarily," The tall skinny one said, "We are in the Lylat system, although we originate from over a billion light-years away, just like Ryan does."
"Don't worry," The fat one said, "we're only here for the human."
"If you want to live you'll fork him over," The short skinny one said as she floated into the air.
"Forget about it," Vincent said pulling out his blaster. I did the same pulling out one of mine with my left hand while my sword was at the ready with my right hand. Mach and Robert also pulled out a blaster, while Kenji took to using his claws.
"No way in hell will you get Ryan," Kenji said looking annoyed. The three elves looked at us and laughed.
"Were the greatest spellcasters that you've ever met," They said and each shouted out their names.
"Sandy," The tall skinny one said.
"Cindy," The large fat one said.
"Mindy," The short skinny one floating said.
"We are the Magus Sisters," they all shouted in unison.
"Fira," I shouted summoning a small set of fire twisters right where they're standing. When the fire cleared it showed they were completely unharmed, a magic shield that Cindy formed nullified the fire.
"Allow me to show you how it's done," Cindy said snapping her fingers and seeing my fire get reflected back. I couldn't stop it from hitting me hard as I went down covered in my flames. I rolled it out quickly and the others charged in. I jumped to avoid a swipe from Cindy's scythe and swept myself back onto my feet. Pulling my sword out to block another attack from Sandy's staff. Blasters fired and I tried a couple more spells, only to find them reflected back as they added it to their own spells.
"Thundara, Blizzara," I shouted quickly expunging my magic energy.
"Reflect," Cindy said as they both got deflected easily, striking Kenji and Robert who went down under the force. I resorted to physical fighting and realized that Mindy was healing the three of them with her magic. I was at a clear disadvantage. I inadvertently knocked out two of my allies and I couldn't hurt any of them because they kept getting healed. Then the battlefield started looking funny, like the area was changing a little bit. Sandy seemed to be able to work with Illusions along with other attack magic. This made it hard for me to swing at any of them in the first place. I looked to see that the other comrades were down. Kenji and Robert were completely unconscious while Mach and Vincent were down on their asses, this was not good. Especially since I got hit by the butt of both enemies weapons hard and got knocked backwards right next to the others. After all that work and I got my magic ass handed to me easily by these bitches. Cindy approached and rose her scythe to try and strike me down. I held up my sword in defense but saw another blade rise to block the blow. The extremely large sword could only belong to one person.
"You," Sandy said angrily, "you of all people."
"You alright Ryan?" Angulo asked me as he helped me onto my feet.
"Thanks Angulo," I said, "I owe you one."
"Don't worry about it," he said, "these bitches picked the wrong time to mess with you. Runic Blade!" with that the illusion went away restoring the battlefield to normal, absorbed into the blade. Then he quickly warped to the other side of the battlefield, his sword held out like he just struck, and the two weapons were broken. Then like a flash Angulo's hand glowed a furious red.
"Flare!" he shouted as all three got hit with an intense blast, and Cindy didn't seem quick enough to reflect it. Woah, he was even better than I thought. When the smoke cleared they were barely able to stand on their feet. A spell like that would have killed me but it didn't seem to tire out Angulo at all.
"We'll get you next time you filthy horse," Sandy growled as she warped the three away and disappeared. Vincent and Mach were busy trying to help themselves up while I tried my best to remain on my feet. Angulo seemed to stare into space for a bit. I wonder what her problem with Angulo was. Angulo approached me.
"Concentrate Ryan," he said, "concentrate a cure spell on your friends." I didn't bother questioning him, not that I ever did in the first place and concentrated.
"Cure," I said and Mach and Vincent glowed a slight green aura for a little bit.
"Hey," Mach said, "I feel much better."
"Me too," Vincent said looking at me, "did you do that Ryan?"
"I did but," I looked at Angulo confused, "what does this mean?"
"It means Mindy was killed," he said. This quickly she was killed? Does that mean she didn't survive the blast. No, I saw her still breathing and moving when they left. It must have been that mysterious guy I met back on the other planets.
"Anyway I'll take these two to the infirmary," Angulo said picking up Kenji and Robert, "I'll let them know you said thanks for the motorcycle."
"How did you know I got a motorcycle?" I asked with a sly smile. He just chuckled and walked away, while I walked over to assist Mach and Vincent.

"How could you do that Cougar," Sandy shouted in a tirade, "letting that bastard you call number 24 kill our little sister."
"We'll have your throat for this," Cindy shouted alongside her sister. Cougar only smiled and waved a hand.
"You sure it was number 24?" he asked with a snarling smile, "You sure it wasn't Ryan and Angulo that killed her. I'm pretty sure I saw them kill her."
"What the hell are you talking abou..." Sandy began before she stopped and thought for a moment.
"You're right Cougar," Cindy said, "I believe it was Ryan that killed him."
"Along with that bastard Angulo," Sandy said fixing her staff with a spell, "I'll end them both even if it kills me." Both of them left the grand hall allowing Cougar some peace. Cougar could only laugh out loud after they were out of earshot.
"Very good job Slyth," he said to the shadows. Shortly after a green snake with a silver scar across his forehead appeared from the shadows. Unlike most snakes he had arms and legs to allow him to walk and perform other tasks.
"The ability of confusion beats out illusion any day," Slyth said, "although it's only one of my elements skills, it's not it's only feature."
"That's good," Cougar said, "you'll be one of the keys down the road."
"I'm curious though," Slyth asked, "why did number 24 kill Mindy?"
"For the same reason he killed those others that came into contact with Ryan number 6," he said, "the more they die, the stronger I become. And with that strength will the superior finally recognize me. Isn't that right superior?"
"That's correct," said a hooded figure who warped right in front of Cougar, "just don't forget the main goal. We're still both far off and very near to it."
