Peter was playing Metroid 2: The Return of Samus on Gameboy. He was listening to Joan Jett on CD on his Sony Discman. He was having a good time. Charlie Quinton had gone home. All of a sudden, there was a very loud crash that emanated from the garage. Peter paused his game and his music. He took off his headphones and he ran outside. He saw 2 fighter jets in the garage. He didn't recognize the fighter jets. Peter walked down the back door steps into the garage. He saw an orange vulpine and a blue avian in the fighter jets. The ships were starting to catch fire. Peter knew that the first priority was to get the vulpine and the avian out of the fighter jets as soon as possible.

The human ran up to the fighter jet. Fox McCloud was suffocating inside the fighter jet, so was Falco Lombardi. Peter broke the glass with his feet. After a few tries, the glass finally broke free of the fighter jet and Peter had successfully got the blue avian and orange vulpine out of the fighter jets. Peter got the hose and extinguished the flames. Peter then tended to Fox and Falco. They both had small cuts and bruises on their bodies. Peter tended to their wounds with saline and rubbing alcohol. He patched the wounds up.

"Thanks for patching us up of our wounds." Fox said to the human boy.

"No problem." Peter said to the blue avian and orange vulpine.

"Can you tell us where me and Falco are and when we are?" Fox asked the human boy. Peter Thompson was a bit surprised at the fact that the vulpine and the avian could talk on fluent English without any difficulty.

"You're on the planet Earth in the city of Denver in the state in Colorado. The date is Monday, August 12, 1996." Peter said to Fox McCloud and Falco Lombardi.

"This is a pretty cool looking place you got." Falco said to the human.

"Thanks." Peter said to the blue avian. "My name is Peter Thompson. I'm what you call a human being."

"Cool." Falco said. Fox and Falco were inside the living room of Peter Thompson's house. They were sitting on the couch. There was a TV hooked up across from the couch. Peter turned on the TV. An episode of The Simpsons started to play. It showed Homer Simpson in the Kwik-E-Mart about to pay for his premium ice cream. A guy who looks like Krusty the Klown wearing a black domino mask holds up the store. Homer runs away like a little bitch into a bag of chips. The Krusty the Klown impersonator got the money he needed and ran out of the store.

Fox and Falco watched the Simpsons episode intently. The characters were funny to them. They found it interesting how Krusty got wrongfully accused of robbing the Kwik-E-Mart.

Fox, Peter and Falco watched a few episodes of the Simpsons. Then, Peter showed Falco and Fox to his room. His room had a bunch of PlayStation games, as well as Super Nintendo and PC games. He had a bunch of cardboard boxes that were full of many Marvel and DC comic books. Peter showed Fox and Falco his computer. He booted up his Windows 95 PC (Personal Computer). The all too familiar start up sound of Windows 95 chimed up. Once Windows 95 was started up, Peter went to Netscape, which was the most popular internet browser back in the 1990s.

The human boy started up AOL. Three squares immediately popped up. The first square had a yellow stick like figure who looked like it was running. A strange whirring noise started up. It was followed by a series of other strange beeps and noises. This was the sound you would hear upon starting up AOL. The sound of dial up internet. I would tell you guys why the dial up internet noise sounds the way it is but there is a YouTube video that explains it better than I would. If you want to find out the source of the sounds of dial up internet, look it up on YouTube.

Peter Thompson finally connected to AOL. Fox and Falco were amazed by the website. Websites back in the mid 1990's were primitive. Very primitive. So primitive that one would think that the website would be created within a couple of days. Well, that was what the early days of the Internet were like. Videos on the internet were virtually non existent. There were no video hosting sites back then. Even if a person would want to watch a video, it would've taken a long time for it to download because of the extremely slow speeds of dial up internet.

The vulpine and avian watched as the human boy gave them a guided tour of AOL. They both learned what AOL was about. When Peter introduced Falco and Fox to AOL Instant Messenger, they were both surprised at the fact that one of the usernames that were in the chat room was the name Venom. Venom was the name of the planet of the Lylat System in which James McCloud and his team were sent to investigate some reports of strange bio-engineering activity. Upon reaching the planet's surface, James McCloud and Peppy Hare were then ambushed by unexpected enemy fighters and captured by Andross after they were surprisingly betrayed by their disloyal teammate Pigma Dengar.

While Peppy was barely able to escape from Venom and return home to Corneria, James's fate was unclear but widely presumed and implied to have been executed at Andross's hands.

Fox and Falco were very angry at the fact that one of the usernames on AOL was named after the planet in which Fox's father had presumably been killed by Andross.

"You mind telling me and Falco why one of the AOL usernames is named VenomFan13?" Fox asked Peter.

"That's my friend Charlie Quinton's AOL username." Peter said to Fox and Falco.

"Venom's the name of the planet in which my father was killed by my worst enemy Andross!" Fox said angrily to the human boy.

"So, what's it to you?" Peter asked Fox.

"MY FATHER F**KING DIED ON THE PLANET VENOM!" Fox yelled at Peter. "I HAVE EVERY F**KING RIGHT TO BE ANGRY!"

"I'm sorry to hear that, Fox." Peter Thompson said to the vulpine. "My friend chose that username because he is a fan of the comic book character named Venom."

"There's a comic book character named Venom?" Falco said incredulously to Peter.

"Yes." Peter said. "Venom is a Marvel Comics character that frequently appears in issues of The Amazing Spider-Man."

"I'm going to tell your online friend to change his username!" Fox said to Peter.

"First, you'll have to create an AOL username and email, Fox." Peter said to the vulpine. Peter showed Fox McCloud how to create an AOL username and email along with a new password, which Fox had to write down on a little Post-It note.

After Fox created an AOL username, which was Lylat_Fox, he logged into the chat room. He sent a message to VenomFan13. Fox asked him to change his username. The message was sent to VenomFan13. Fox waited for VenomFan13 to reply. A few minutes later, VenomFan13 replied back to Fox. This is what he said: Why should I change my username for? Fox began to type.

Lylat_Fox: You should change your username because I don't like it. It is the name of the planet that my father James McCloud and his team went to to investigate some strange phenomena. They were ambushed by enemy fighters. My father and his friend Peppy Hare were betrayed by thier other friend Pigma Denbar. Then, Andross killed my father. Peppy barely got out of the planet alive.

VenomFan13: You expect me to believe that bullshit ass story. I'm not going to change my AOL username because of your preferences, asshole.

Lylat_Fox: I don't appreciate the fact that you have a username that is degrading to me and my Star Fox team.

VenomFan13: I'm not going to change my username because some punk motherf**ker tells me so. If you don't like my username, that's too god damn bad. You can kiss my ass.

Lylat_Fox: That's no way to talk to me. I'm Fox McCloud. I'm from the Lylat System. I'm going to tell General Pepper about this.

VenomFan13: You're not Fox McCloud. Fox McCloud is a video game character from the game Star Fox for the Super Nintendo.

Lylat_Fox: What?

VenomFan13: You heard me. Don't pretend you don't understand. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'll be signing off of here and I'll be playing Resident Evil on my PlayStation. Talk to you later.

The conversation between Fox McCloud and Charlie Quinton via AOL Instant Messenger ended. Fox stared at the screen for a while.

"Hey Fox, Falco. You guys hungry?" Peter asked the vulpine and the avian.

"Yes. Me and Falco would like something to eat." Fox said to the human boy.

"Ok. I'll give you guys some leftovers that me and my family had last night. It's spaghetti. I think you'll guys will like it." Peter said.

Peter, Fox and Falco left the bedroom and they went into the dining room. Peter served Falco, Fox and himself some leftover spaghetti. They ate their food in silence. This was Fox McCloud's and Falco Lombardi's first time on the planet Earth. Already, they were starting to like it.
