A/N:This one is going to have several POVs hope you can keep up. Setup ten years after the show. Kim and Ron had split up.

Chapter I

"This is Naco to control. I am 30 miles out and requesting landing instruction." I ask the controller.

"Roger Naco descend to 3500 ft, turn heading 220 expect runway 23 left." replied the controller.

"Confirmed, descending to 3500 ft, and turning to 220. Expecting runway 23 left. Will contact when I have runway in site."

The sun was just starting to come up and I watched it for a few minutes before I turn my new F-35 JSF (Joint Strike Fighter) to the heading that was given to me, and began my descent to the altitude I was assigned. It was still hard for me to believe that I was flying the US Air Forces newest fighter. When I was a kid I was never much into aircraft but not long after high school I began to fall in love with them. Of course there was one good reason that I join the service to begin with.

Truth be told it was do to the fact that someone had hurt me real bad and I was running away like the coward I was back then. Not any more today I have the confidence now and it is show by me flying this multi million dollar jet. When I finished with the academy and got my orders to be a part of the second squadron of the F-35s I was more the ecstatic. It was a dream that I had for the four years i was at the academy and now here I was a 1st Lt and flying one the best aircraft in the world.

I checked my gauges as I dropped out of the clouds at 4000 ft and spotted the field I was landing at. I keyed the mic and contacted the controller. It was Charleston AFB and I could never be tires of the site of the base and surrounding areas in the predawn morning.

" Noco to control, Runway in site." I told them.

"Roger Naco. You are clear for a visual on 23 left. Winds at 225 blowing at 5 knots, gusting to 10."

It was still funning hearing that name as my call sign. My buddies in the academy figured out that I was the one that had invented the dish and they started calling me it. The call sign stuck and still today it bring a smile to my face.

"Roger control." I replied.

I set my flaps and dropped my landing gear. I got three green and with that I proceeded on my approach. The flight down was clam and uneventful. I touched down smoothly and reversed my engine and applied the brakes. My plane slowed down and cleared the runway. Once cleared I got taxi instruction from the tower.

" Naco taxi to parking alpha six using bravo, alpha."

"Roger taxing to alpha six using bravo, alpha taxiways."

I taxi up to my parking spot and spotted my crew chief out there waiting for me. I followed his marshaling command and stopped on the parking spot. I shut down the engine and opened the canopy. As it was opening my Crew Chief Master Sargent Davis pushed up the stairs so I could climb out.

"So how was the patrol LT."

"Uneventful as usual Chief. I am so glad I got leave coming in a tomorrow."

"Speaking of that, where are you heading for leave?" He asked me.

"Back home to Colorado." I told him as I climbed into the truck to take me back to the squadron headquarters.

"Well If I don't see you before you leave, have a good trip."

He pulled the truck in front of the Squadron Building and I hoped out. I put my hand out and shook my Crew Chiefs hand.

"Thanks Chief." I said as the driver drove off.

/O\

I walked into the squadron building and went to my locker to put up my flight gear when my a friend of mine came in the locker room. I could tell just by looking at him he was upset about something.

" Naco I have been looking all over for you." He said in a frantic voice.

"What's up Ace?" I asked.

Ace was my best friend since the time we meet at the Academy. He was about my height and had brown hair and green eyes. We where lucky when we got assigned to the same squadron together. The thing was Ace was not a pilot but logistics. Sometimes I think he get jealous of me being a pilot and he was not able to make it as one due to medical reasons, but he never seamed to show it.

"The Colonel is looking for you." He said still sounding frantic.

"Ace calm down. I am sure he knows that I was on patrol. I will go and see him as soon as I am done here." I said in a calm voice.

"But" I cut him off. "Listen it will be fine. The Colonel is not as bad as everyone seams to think he is."

I took off my flight vest and put in my locker. I grabbed my cover (hat for those not in the service) stuck it in the pocket of my left leg of my black flight suit and headed to see the Colonel. I could never figure out why everyone seamed to be afraid of him. He was always nice to me and we seamed to get along just fine. Yet just about everyone else in the squadron seamed to think he was out to get them.

Now don't get me wrong he can be tough but for the most part I never had a problem with him. Yet the way Ace was acting i knew something was up. There was no need to get upset or worry about I knew what it was going to be about.

I walked over to his office and went in the front room. His aid and my girlfriend Gene was sitting at her desk. I smiled at her when I came in. For some reason she did not return my smile like she always did. I figured that she was just to busy. Ye the more I thought about it my instincts was telling me something was wrong.

"Hi Gene, is the Colonel in." I asked her

"Yes he is but he is on a call right now. Just have a seat and I will let him know you are here." She said with a lot a of venom in her voice.

The was enough of a clue for me to get the picture. There was only two women in my life that I would put up with talking at me like that, and both of them I head not seen in almost ten years. For now I just played it off. The last thing I wanted was to fight with her in the Colonel office.

"Thanks, By the way are you almost ready to head to Colorado with me." I asked her.

She froze in her tracks and turned to me. The look on her face and in her eye told me everything I need to know. Just like all the other women in my life save one none of them stuck around long. I knew one of two thing was going to happen with Gene. One she was going to break up with me and the other was she was cheating on me. Just like someone else in my life did to me.

"Listen something has come up and I will not be able to make it." She told me. It was not what she said it was the way she said it.

There was venom in her voice again and I knew what that other thing was with out even asking her. . I was going to respond when the Colonel door opened and he walked out. I stood up and snapped to attention.

"Ah good Naco your hear. Why don't you go in and have a seat I will be right in ." He told me.

"Yes sir." I said.

I walk into Colonel Jackson's office and took my seat. As I was sitting there I thought about what Gene had said to me. It explained a lot of thing by the way she was acting towards me the past few weeks.

'I should have seen this coming. She has been so distant lately. I guess it is over between us. It not like she was all that great to begin with.' I tried to convince myself.

To be honest she was all that great to be with. She was always critical and I would have broken up with her soon anyways. I was in it mostly for the companionship then anything else. My thought where quickly brought to the now when the Colonel walked back in his office. I stood up and he motioned me to sit back down. As I was sitting he began to speak.

"So are you already for your trip home." He asked me.

"Yes sir. I have made all the arrangements. My flight leaves tomorrow at 1500 hour." I said.

Colonel Jackson had a strange look on his face as he sat down and pick up a folder on his desk. He looked at it for a second and the tossed it over to me. I was getting worried until I opened it

"Well how would you like to go earlier then 1500?" he asked me.

"I would love to but I have the morning patrol before I leave. Why do ask sir?" I asked with a puzzled look.

The Colonel noticed the shock on my face when I looked over the mission folder

"You know about the dignitaries we have here on base right ." I just nodded yes and he continued. "Well there are to head to the academy by tomorrow afternoon. Well there are to be leaving on one of the Corporate aircraft and the Base Co has ordered me to have a fighter fly escort."

I could see where this was going and to be honest escort duty was a pain but if it got me heading home sooner by all means. I looked at the Colonel for a second before speaking up.

"Sir when are they wanting to leave."

"They are going to have wheels up at 0800. which means you need to be in the air before them."

"I understand sir. What is my orders once I reach the academy? If I may ask?"

"Once there you are to leave the fighter at the Air field and you will be issued a Hummer to take the rest of the way home. Which I am sure is only a hour away."

"Yes sir. So I am to be getting a striped down Hummer."

"No LT you will be driving one of the VIP versions. It has the armor of our military version but the rest of it is a civilian conversion. Apparently one of the VIPs is from your home town so you will be drive them home."

"Great from babysitter to taxi driver." I said

"I know that LT, but you are the only one I can spear and it is just by luck that you are heading in there direction." Colonel Jackson told me.

I was about to answer the Colonel when his phone rang. It was the private line to the base Commander. Colonel Jackson answered it.

"Yes sir."

"Yes he is here right now. No sir he has not answered me yet. "

That when the Colonel looked over to me. All I could was to node my head yes. I mean how I could refuse the General. Especially when he was on the phone right then. That and I was going to be able to get home sooner.

"Yes sir he agreed. Yes I will tell him. Yes sir. Goodbye." The Colonel then hung up the phone and turn back to me.

"Well I guess I need to go and finishing packing and make sure that everything is ready on my aircraft." I said and excused myself from the Colonel office.

I was just about to walk to the door when the Colonel called me back to his desk.

"I have one more thing for you before you go." He said and tossed something at me.

What I caught was a little black box. I opened it and saw Captains bars. I looked up at him in disbelief. I could not believe that I had made Captain.

"The word just came down today. You made it. Congratulation Captain Stoppable." He said smiling.

"Thank you sir. I don't know what to say." I said.

"You deserve it Ron. You have work hard and proved yourself as a good pilot. Now get out of here so I can get some work done." He said as I finished pinning on my new rank.

"Yes sir" I said and saluted him before leaving his office.

I walked out of the Colonel's office and I need to talk with Gene before I left. As I walked threw the door I heard someone talking in the hall outside the Colonel office. I could tell that one of them was Gene but the other was hard to pin down I know it was a guy but I didn't know who.

I passed her desk when her intercom when off. It was the Colonel paging her. Yet she was out in the hall and could not hear him. I just reached the door when he came out and I could tell that he was pissed that she didn't answer him.

"Captain have you seen my aid." he asked me in a aggravated tone

"No sir but I think she is in the hall talking with someone." I told him. Now he was really pissed.

"Do me a favor and tell her to get her ass in hear now." He said in a pissed tone.

"Yes sir."

I went to the door and opened it. Just as I had thought she was in the hall with another guy kissing him. It was a young butter bar (2nd LT) and when he saw me he froze. It really hit home when I noticed that he spotted my new rank.

"Captain I…" he stammered.

"You what, doing inappropriate acts in the hall. I don't know about you Lt but I would really think hard about my career before doing something so stupid in front of the Colonel office."

Gene turned around and was very upset that I interrupted them but I didn't care. She was cheating on me and it reminded me of what someone else had did to me but it felt good reaming my replacement. Part of my wished it was the guy she replaced me with back at school.

"Ron why don't you mind your own business." She said in an aggravated tone.

"Listen Lt Fairfield you're in enough hot water as it is, so I would suggest you not mouthing off to a superior officer. It only the fact that we use to date that I am not bring this to the Colonel attention." She gave me a stunned look. "Now as the Colonel put it 'Get your ass in there.' because he is looking for you and he's pissed." I told her.

By now her new friend took off down the hall and out the door. Gene on the other hand headed into the office and just as the door was closing I could hear Colonel Jackson chewing her out. I smiled to myself as I walked down the hall listening to the Colonel chewing her out. It felt good letting her go. There was only room for one women in my heart and it was already taken. I just hope by going home I could get the nerve to tell her how I had felt about her.

A/N: this is my first KP story. I hope everyone will like it. R/R Next chapter will explain more on how and why Ron joined the USAF.
