Having had been shot down previously, Fox McCloud was admittedly slightly off his game, but he was every bit as tough in the face of adversity as he had ever been.<br/><br/>Holding himself up against the side of a structure with his blaster comfortably in his one paw, he gritted his fangs and allowed his ears and tail to stand at attention. He knew that Lucario had some form of telepathy.<br/><br/>While he didn't understand it, he figured that holding his position would alert the other one to his presence.<br/><br/>Meanwhile Link was trapped in the supposed warehouse for the time being. He wasn't used to this, but did his best to remain as stalwart - and naturally as silent - as he had ever been in order to avoid ultimately panicking and therefore making a bad decision. There had to be some way out of all of this...<br/><br/>...or perhaps Zelda. He could have hoped in spite of what he perceived as a failure on his behalf that she might very well have been well for the time being, and maybe she could have aided him in what would have accounted for a role reversal that wouldn't have been too embarrassing.<br/><br/>While he figured it signified a defeat in his quest to always protect the Hyrulian crown, it also was an illustration of how strong she was in turn as well.
