The illustration to accompany the fifth chapter of Kursed, The Prime Huntress.
It's the battle of the hunters! Kursed and Samus both need the Metroid, and they'll do whatever it takes to win. Samus may be better equipped, but Kursed has Cerinian combat and agility that Samus has never seen. But who wins this fight, and how does the chapter end? Only one way to find out.
Summary:
"After suffering a horrible injury, Krystal becomes a bounty hunter named Kursed, and she accepts a high-paying job that will let her escape the pain of the Lylat System. Her mission is to recover a rare and valuable specimen called a Metroid for a dubious client, but she soon learns that there is another bounty hunter interested in the Metroid, and her old love hasn’t given up on her yet either."

Please let me know what you think! I know I draw a lot more than I write, but I have tried to create a good story and I really hope you enjoy it.
Reviews and critiques are greatly appreciated!

Finally got the proper time to give this chapter a read, I must say right off the bat I am a massive fan of how you treat and write Krystal's telepathy since it had very little exploration in the games, and the action that ensues between her and Samus had me at the edge of my seat! I felt like I was reading without taking any breaths, it would have been so cool to see it animated or something haha
I also really liked the "Krystal's fur stood up raised" as she knew Samus was coming, it really highlights how absolutely hectic the sequence of events in the lab are. She just couldn't catch a break!
I'm also really keen on hearing how the immediate kinship between the metroid and Krystal will play out when I read the next chapters!
I also really really love how focused Fox becomes in the heat of the momentz acting purely on instinct to save someone he cares deeply about, it makes me so happy.
Lastly, I can't believe I didn't comment on it a few chapters ago but Krystal's outfit is REAL DAMN COOL

I'm so sorry for missing this comment!
Thank you very much for commenting, I'm glad the chapter flowed well enough. You're pretty much *the* Starfox Adventures fan, so if you say I'm writing Krystal's telepathy and Fox's determination correctly, then I know I'm doing something right! Thank you so much.
Chapters like these suggest that this whole story would have probably worked better as a comic than as a fanfic, but I was nervous that I would be burned out of an ambitious comic like that.

Writing a comic and writing a story are equally tough from what Ive experienced and seen, you are doing a fantastic job from what I have read so far (really meaning to read the rest but I am infamously bad at finding time to read stuff 🙏💦)
I appreciate how you're writing Krystal's telepathy so much because it always felt like an accidental character trait star fox assault brought onto the table (the parts of star fox adventures where Fox hears her cries it's supposed to be the krazoa spirit transmitting her voice to Fox's mind to trick him into finishing the job). So seeing it get explored and fleshed out makes it feel way more natural and like it's always been a part of her, which I am a big fan of. THE Star Fox Adventures Fan approved!
