The Aerie: Black Dolphins Rising

Just a Warning...
This is a huge story. This is one of the longest I have ever wrote, weighing in at
sixty nine pages, whew! So be sure to grab a drink and a few snacks before reading.
Complements are welcomed!!!!

Disclaimer:
Star Fox and all related characters belong to Nintendo Inc., Mariko, Boomer, Ariel, Delphi,
and the New Atlantis belongs to me.

Special Note:
Leon's flair for Torture, Bill Gray's Experiences, and the Brain Mess were the product of another
writer's imagination. Thanks to J. Wolfman for allowing me to borrow them.

Special Note 2:
Okay sometime while I was writing on Parts Four, Five and Six, Shade Monroe began work on
his huge tale: Descent into the Soul it was written to fit into the events of this story since Shade
is Boomer's boyfriend. Anyway, while reading anything after part four and you see some
odd references, don't worry, it's just my attempt to fit Descent into the Soul
into this storyline. (grins).

Part 1: In Darkest Night...
Andross as finally succeeded! Lylat is his and StarFox is safely in the dungeons of Venom, all is well. Or is it?
