The Giant Robot Robbers

*This article is fanmade. It is not official! yet*
**The Giant Robot Robbers** is the Prologue mission of *Super DuckTales and Star Fox*.

## Synopsis

It's been months since the Moonlander Invasion was scuppered. Life appears to have returned to normal until the Beagle Boys raid the Money Bin with the Robot Robbers. The Beagles lead a powerful and seemingly unstoppable onslaught defeating McDuck security with ease. Just then, the Great Fox appears over Earth. The Star Fox team had heard of Scrooge's distress calls. Team Star Fox take to the skies first by taking on the Beagles armed with shoulder-fired surface-to-air weapons. Just then while Falco works to clear a landing zone, Fox's Arwing is hit, and thus, he and Krystal eject to take the fight to the ground with hand-to-hand melee combat.

The Fox-Krystal pair defeat much of the Beagle gangs saving the McDuck security guards trapped on the battleground. The two then have to fight one of the Robot Robbers. After Fox and Krystal use a combined attack, the robot is weakened that it has to retreat for repairs. The team and McDuck family cheers with Launchpad crashing down before the Star Fox pilots. Only one of the Glam Yankees is left behind who smirks that by then the McDuck-Duck kids have been kidnapped yet again. At first ignoring it, the team hopes to celebrate but Donald rushes in to warn Scrooge about the kidnapped children.

## Gameplay

First, you start in the skies over the Money Bin first clearing enemy Beagles to secure a landing spot for the rest of the team. You must also fight Beagles using shoulder-fired surface-to-air (SAM) weapons. After the Arwings, you fight on the ground against the Beagle Boys while keeping the entrance to the Money Bin safe. After 30 are defeated (45 on Hard, 60 on Veteran), you must a mini-boss fight against Bigtime and Bouncer Beagle, then a boss fight against one of the Robot Robbers. After it is defeated, the stage is completed.

## Transcript

### Opening: Attack on the Money Bin!

*The mission commences with a bird's eye view of Duckburg, flying over McDuck Manor, to other buildings where the citizens of Duckburg are enjoying everyday life. That is until we see the Money Bin under siege by the Beagle Boys. With the Beagles are construction-like robots called the Robot Robbers.*

*Cut to Scrooge in the Money Bin contorl room, he is backed by Della Duck, Gyro Gearloose and Mrs. Bentina Beakley.*

Scrooge: Attention, all McDuck security! The Money Bin's in danger again! According to our radar it's... Oh me bagpipes... It's our construction robots Gyro was working on! The Beagles are using our robots to break into the Money Bin! Battle stations, all of ya'!

*Cut to outside the Money Bin. McDuck Security guards and drones race out to fight the Beagles.*

Della: *(off-screen)* I sort of want to join the fight alongside your security, Uncle Scrooge.

Gyro: *(off-screen)* Well, so far, my drones have not turned evil and fired on us.

*McDuck Security fight back against much of the Beagles, but are powerless against Bouncer and Bigtime Beagle. One of the Robot Robbers swats three flying security drones down. Cut to Ma Beagle standing on a getaway van.*

Ma Beagle: Hahahahaha! Think you're smarter than the smarties now? Because with these robots, we're gonna get Beagleburg back!

*Cut to Scrooge in the Money Bin. He is growling. Suddenly, a green blip appears on the radar.*

Della Duck: *(Surprised)* Uncle Scrooge, a blip just came in on the radar! Looks like a space vehicle. Not something out of *Courage of the Cosmos*. It's above the Earth.

Bentina Beakley: Are the Moonlanders breaking their peace already?

*The camera cuts to space, above the Earth, a green warp signature is seen. Just then, the Great Fox appears. The Star Fox theme is playing in the background. Cut to the Great Fox bridge. In the Captain's chair is Fox McCloud, to his sides, the falcon Falco Lombardi and the Cerinian vixen Krystal. At one control panel, is the android ROB 64. The android is working with the toad Slippy.*

Fox McCloud: We're Star Fox, reporting for duty.

Falco Lombardi: *(Stretching his arms)* What's happening out here?

Slippy Toad: *(Turning fro working at his panel,* We picked some people in distress. It's coming from a place called... Duckburg.

Krystal: *(Clasping her hands)* I sense a battle, close to a large building. Guards are... crying for aid. Now, Falco; We have to help those ducks.

Fox McCloud: *(Closing hands into fists)* Let's begin the briefing!

### Briefing

Scrooge McDuck: To any and all allies within the sound of my beak. The Beagle Boys are using our construction robots to attack the Money Bin! And there are also Beagle Boys on foot with bombs to breach the door! Someone, render assistance!

Fox McCloud: What's the situation?

Peppy Hare: An army of what we see as beagles are raiding this Money Bin.

Falco Lombardi: Wolf's still at large. Shouldn't we be chasing him?

Krystal: I heard the transmission, and it registers as a distress call. We should go and help, Falco.

Peppy Hare: Be careful, those Beagles have a large army of robots with them. Try not to be squished.

Fox McCloud: Right, Krystal and I are heading down to the surface.

Krystal: Alright, Fox. I love going on missions with you. We'll make sure those bad beagles don't know what's what.

Fox McCloud: Okay, scramble, Star Fox!

### Cutscene: Scramble!

*Fox, Falco, Slippy and Krystal run down the corridors of the Great Fox and head to the Arwing hangar. First, Fox hops into his Arwing, Krystal jumps in with flexibility, Falco jumps into his Arwing, while Slippy climbs into his Arwing with difficulty. The Arwings prepare to takeoff.*

Fox McCloud: *(Off-screen)* Ready for takeoff, team?

The four Star Fox pilots: *(off-screen)* YEAH!

*The Arwings fly down to Duckburg's surface and find the Beagles are winning.*

Scrooge McDuck: *(Off-screen)* Attention, UFOs! Identify yerselves!

Fox McCloud: *(Contacting Scrooge)* This is Team Star Fox. We heard you could use a hand. I'll try and soften them up for you.

Ma Beagle: *(Spots the Arwings through binoculars)* How did someone so brilliant raise such morons?

*Fox fires his Arwing lasers on the Beagles, blowing some off the bridge to the Money Bin.*

Della Duck: *(Off-screen and radioing)* I've always wanted to see more planes. Anything out of the ordinary?!

Krystal: *(Contacts Della)* This is an Arwing, one of Star Fox's most reliable fightercraft. You'd be surprised with what we can do with these.

### Gameplay: Clear a landing spot for the rest of the Arwings

Fox McCloud: All ships! Let's get at those Beagles for a safe landing.

Gyro Gearloose: You wanna trust the safety of our Money Bin to aliens who could kill us all?!

Scrooge McDuck: Can it, Gyro! We'll just have to trust this... Star Fox team for now.

*Fox clears out seven Beagles on the ground.*

Krystal: Fox, I sense beagles racing towards the Money Bin entrance with bombs. They're going to force their way inside! I'm gonna try and delay them.

*It is advisable not to go near the Robot Robbers yet as doing so will have the robots swat you, giving heavy damage.*

Falco Lombardi: I wouldn't face those massive robots just yet, Fox. We gotta save those ducks.

*After defeating twenty Beagles*

ROB 64: Danger, enemy Beagles armed with surface-to-air weapons. Evade!

Peppy Hare: To evade SAM missiles, do a barrel roll or a loop!

*Fox defeats the Beagles armed with shoulder-fired SAM launchers*

Falco Lombardi: Way to go, Fox! I'll clear a landing spot for you and Krystal.

### Cutscene: Hard Landing

*One of the Robot Robbers swats Fox's Arwing. Over beeping noises.*

Krystal: *(Off-screen)* Fox! Eject!

Fox McCloud: *(Sees the ejection systems and presses it)* Okay!

*Fox and Krystal eject from their Arwings dodging heavy fire from the Beagles. Fox lands super-hero style while Krystal lands gracefully. Fox uses hand-to-hand to take down two of the Glam Yankees, while Krystal tail whips Burger before taking out her staff and baseball-style swatting him away.*

Krystal: *(Staff at ready)* You're not setting one foot in the Money Bin, you evil greedy Beagles!

*An army of Beagles on foot race towards the Money Bin. Fox and Krystal nod to one another.*

Fox McCloud: *(Gets out his blaster)* Get ready to taste the skill of two fox lovers from the Lylat System.

### Gameplay: Turn back the Beagle invasion!

*The battle against the Beagle Boys continues on the ground*

Ma Beagle: You better let us commit this robbery or-

Krystal: Get away from the door. There's nothing in the Money Bin for you. Turn back or you will face the fury of Cerinian combat.

Ma Beagle: Stubborn morons. Nab them, jab them, tab them, grab them! Get those insects outta here!

*Fox and Krystal defeat eleven of the Beagles.*

Slippy: Take that, Beagles!

Bigtime Beagle: Not over yet, you maniacs!

*Suicide bomber beagles appear racing for the Money Bin doors.*

Falco Lombardi: Suicide bombers, use distance combat to beat them.

*If a Beagle hits the door, the integrity will decrease by 5%.*
ROB 64: Money Bin door weakening but holding.

Peppy Hare: Not bad. But this Beagle robbery is not going to succeed, Ma Beagle!

Ma Beagle: Just a little more, and we'll be filthy rich!

*Door intregity down to 50%*

Bentina Beakley: Those Beagles are more than halfway inside the building! Stop them!

Ma Beagle: It's my lucky day...!

Fox McCloud: No matter what happens, do not let the Beagles inside!

*Fox and Krystal defeat the suicide bombers.*

Krystal: That's the way, Fox! Keep it up and we'll turn the Beagles back!

Fox McCloud: There's still a couple of those Beagles out there.

*30 Beagles defeated*

Bigtime Beagle: You two look tough. Wanna take us on?!

Bouncer Beagle: You're as good as dead doggies now!

Krystal: We're vulpines. Defend yourselves!

*Bigtime Beagle defeated*

Bigtime Beagle: You got me!

Falco Lombardi: *(regardless if either Bigtime or Bouncer is defeated first)* I'll help as much as I can. How's the ground?

Fox McCloud: We've almost got a good landing zone for the team.

*Bouncer Beagle defeated*

Bouncer Beagle: They're too fast and strong!

### Cutscene: The Robot Robber Appears

*One of the Robot Robbers walks up and punches its bulldozer hand. It then prepares to fight Fox and Krystal.*

### Gameplay: Robot Robber Boss Battle

Fox McCloud: We gotta bring that robot to its knees.

Della Duck: If that thing gets into the Money Bin, Uncle Scrooge is kaput, out of business. Finito.

Krystal: It's our job to stop that robot. Let's take it, Fox!

*If Slippy is active*
Slippy Toad: Enemy shields analyzed.

*The Robot Robber's health gauge is down to 50%*
Ma Beagle: You got guts to take on the Beagle Boys organization. Robbery's the way to-

Krystal: It's not nice to steal, Ma Beagle! I care about my friends so much, so you either take that robot and get out of here, before I wreck it beyond repair!

Ma Beagle: Smart-aleck! Rob them of their lives!

*Della Duck takes a fighter jet to aid Fox and Krystal*

Della Duck: Bombs away!

*Della Duck carpet bombs the area blowing some of the Beagles away.*

Krystal: Thanks... Della Duck.

Della Duck: Hey, she instantaneously knows my name. And you would be...?

Krystal: Krystal, telepath and pilot of the Star Fox team.

Scrooge McDuck: We're not giving you any of mah money, Beagle!

*The Robot Robber's health gauge is down to 25%*

Ma Beagle: You're getting on my nerves now.

Fox McCloud: That Robot Robber's almost quite dead.

Krystal: Time for the coup de grace, Fox!

## Cutscene: A great mystical power!

*The Robot Robber is severely weakened.*

Ma Beagle: Tarnation! That Robot Robber's unbeatable! Don't just stand there, swat them like flies!

Krystal: *(turning to Fox)* Fox. Remember how I had the power to channel the Krazoa? I want to share some of power with you. *(clasps Fox's hand)* Can you feel it, what it's like to use the Krazoa's strength?

Fox: *(smiles)* Let's finish that robot together!"

*The two foxes rush at the Robot Robber and punish it with a series of killer blows, smashing the legs, then the chest. Krystal uses her staff to break off the robot's bulldozer hand. Ma Beagle gasps in shock. On the robot's shoulders, Krystal circles her hands, as does Fox.*

*Then, the two vulpines with roars rush through the Robot Robber's head, shattering it. The two land safely on the ground, while the broken robot robber drops to the ground.*

Ma Beagle: *(sad-angry)* You kill one of my Robot Robbers! All Beagles, we must retreat!

*The Beagles retreat with their remaining Robot Robbers.*

*The Star Fox team and the McDuck-Duck family cheer.*

Scrooge McDuck: Bless me bagpipes, just when we're about to let the Beagles steal mah money.

Fox McCloud: *(giving introductions)* I'm Fox McCloud. *(points to his team starting from Falco)* This is my ace, Falco Lombardi, *(then to Slippy)* my mechanic, Slippy...

Krystal: *(bows from the waist)* And I'm Krystal, the telepath of Star Fox.

Scrooge McDuck: *(giving introductions)* I'm Scrooge McDuck, smarter than the smarties, tougher than the toughies. *(points to Della Duck)*, That's my niece, Della Duck. And she's an amputee. *(points to Beakley)* This is my housekeeper, Mrs. Bentina Beakley, once Agent 22. *(points to Gyro)* That's my lab assistant Gyro Gearloose. He doesn't want his inventions turning evil.

*(Launchpad falls from the sky, then picks himself up)*

Scrooge: And that's Launchpad McQuack my... backup pilot.

Krystal: *(smiling while watching the Beagles flee in a comical manner. She does not see Donald running up to Scrooge with a ransom note)* The Beagles are retreating, Fox! Remind me to thank Falco for helping clear the landing zone for us.

Donald Duck: Scrooge, the kids, the Beagle Boys! They've kidnapped the kids again!

*The Star Fox team is shocked as Della and Scrooge are.*

Donald Duck: Quaaaaaaaack! The ransom note says to deliver $10 million within five hours.

*Krystal spots one of the Glam Yankee left behind that got left behind.*

Narrator: How shocking, the Star Fox team has arrived to save the Money Bin. But the kids are once again in jeopardy...

*(cut to a shot of the triplets and Webby at the Beagle Boys junkyard tied up with buzzsaws over their heads)*

Narrator: Ransom notes are right! Della's kids, Donald's very nephews and Beakley's granddaughter have just five hours! What's it going to be, slice or salvation?! Hold a hopeful breath for the kids until the next mission!
