Hello everyone just letting you know this is my first story so it will probably become a train wreck, reviews are always welcome.
Chapter 1: Left to themselves, things tend to go from bad to worse
*BOOM* a flack shell exploded next to my M.C. 202, there wasn't supposed to be A.A. fire, this was only a training flight!
"This is Mohican one all wings report on your status." Hopefully they didn't get shot down, God I hate flying with four freshmen.
"Mohican one this is Mohican two doing fine"
"This is Mohican three I've taken a little damage to my wing but going steady"
"This is Mohican four nothing serious here, doing fine"
"This is Mohican five doing fine how are you Mohican one?"
*BOOM* "That last one was pretty close, lets head back to the Lexington and see what's going on." Well at least I would get back from practice early, maybe get some extra sleep…..
*BOOM* "Bloody Hell! Mohican one to all wings return to the Lexington immediately!" That last shot had gone straight through the engine I pulled into a steep climb and hammered the throttle so I could possibly glide my way back.
"Mohican one this is Mohican two your smoking pretty hard are you sure you can make it back?"
Well, I didn't think I could the Lexington was pretty far out… "No I can't, I am going to make a crash landing on this Japanese school ship tell command what happened, Mohican two you are now squadron leader."
"Copy that Mohican one, all wings hit the deck and make your way back to the Lexington."
At that moment my engine puttered out. The rest of my squadron left the 'training area' to head back to the Lexington I found a suitable location for a crash landing but I had to go over the main residential area/town/city, or whatever you call it, so I decided to fly low and glide inverted to see what the population looked like so I could confirm this was indeed a Japanese school ship. And well it certainly was, so now I had to speak Japanese. Great.
"Well if anything can simply not go wrong, it will anyway." I said to myself as I prepared for a crash landing. Huh, those sheds looked like hangars, could this be another flight school?
I went to lower but gears but the shell must've damaged the mechanism or something, because I didn't feel the gear go down. Plus the gear up light was still on.
"Well isn't that just great." I braced for impact.
*Boom*
The crash went quite smoothly, as I hit the ground I 'gently' if you could call it that, slid to as stop by the outside of a wooded area. I grabbed my bail out kit, my trusty ax and went to hide into the forest. No sooner than when I reached suitable cover by my wrecked M.C.202 do I hear this loud noise.
*wwwrrrrrr*
It seemed to get louder by the minute, so I ducked into a bush and looked toward the direction of the noise.
*WWWWRRRRR*
It turns out the vehicle was a tank. I remained in my bush
*wwwrrrr….*
The engine stopped as its crew climbed out to investigate my plane, I wonder what they will do. Now since this is a Japanese ship I wonder how rusty I was at speaking the language, since I dropped it about 2 months ago.
"Come out now or we will blow your plane up!" is what I think the leader of the crew said. Quite odd that they are all girls…
Figuring that my plane would be the only thing to get me off this ship I came out "Fine! Don't shoot!" I think I said that in English so I said it again for good measure.
I walked out with my hands above my head with my bail out pack and ax attached to my flight suit which was a ww2 Italian one since we competed in the air version of Tankery. Quite the sport actually, everything had to be authentic….
"What is your name!" stated one of the tanks crew members honestly I couldn't find the commander all the uniforms looked like each other no symbols of rank.
"Jim" I stated blatantly. "Yours?" I decided to try and ease my way into this.
One of the girls responded "My name is Miho"
Me and the tank crew were now within normal talking distance. "Nice to meet you Miho, Who here is in charge?"
They must've seen my ax, it wasn't exactly well hidden either, but they seemed tenser now…
"well-uh-I am at the moment" Miho said this quite nervously.
"Alrighty then" I said "I guess I am your P.O.W." I was going to play this as smart as I could…
"P.O.W.? Ok get on the back of the tank we will give you a ride back to the Tankery sheds." She still had a little bit of nervousness in here voice but looked like she had a plan of sorts.
"Your wish is my command" I said in English they didn't seem to hear me but I immediately got a response in Japanese.
"You're not from Japan?" a gingered girl said.
"No I am from the good old U.S. of A" I said boarding the back of the tank. I got some oos and ahhs from the crew. Mabey this won't be so bad after all…
Tankery Sheds about 4:00 pm
We seemed to be arriving at the sheds I flew over earlier, guess they aren't a flight school, probably one that participated in Tankery. When we got there, there was four other tanks, so I guess that would be the logical conclusion. The girls got off the tank and went to 3 girls which seemed to scare them a tad. And then….
"YOU DID WHAT!" one of the three shouted. I decided it was best to make my way over there.
As I made my way closer a crowd gathered, probably the other crews. Great…
"Hello is there a problem here Ms.?" I said in the least rude way I could.
"You! Who are you and where are you from!" said one of the three.
"Like I said-"Miho tried to intervene but
"SHUT UP YOU!" yelled the woman.
"My name is Jim, I am from the Lexington school of aerobatics, from the United States." Well that's all I am told to give but there isn't really that much more to give, are we at war or something?
"Well thank you Jim it's nice to meet you my name is Momo Kawashima." She was completely calm, Jesus is this woman bi polar!
"Pleasures mine Ms." I didn't even attempt to pronounce that name.
The other two of the three were staring at my ax. This couldn't end well…
_well I hoped you enjoyed I'll take suggestions on how this should go.
