Hello there! I'm the Rocket Gamer! If you have or have not seen me before, either way, I welcome you to... The Hero's Ordeal! A series of fan fictions following around one OC by the name of Tony Kurosaki, going on over-the-top adventures, mainly featuring anime, video games, and possibly other types of media! After reading "The 501st Conjoined Fighter Wing" by Gloria Conehead (which has actually been taken down from the archives, unfortunately), I wanted to try doing my own version of the story, but following the canon plot of the first season. Also, like that story, there's going to be MULTIPLE male OCs in this story as well, but to make things more over-the-top, they're also going to be based off YouTubers as well! The character list below is as follows!
Tony Kurosaki [Protagonist] (Yours Truly)
Kona Shinkawa [Deuteragonist] (iKonakona)
Will Allen (RabbidLuigi)
Brock Macmillen (Moo Snuckel)
Craig Reinhardt (MiniLadd)
Brian Hanby* Marcelle (The Terroriser)
Tyler Colburn (I AM WILDCAT)
Johnny Dennis* Vetterlein (H2O Delirious)
Lui Calibre (YouTuber of same name)
Logan Atkins (Fawful's Minion)
David (Daithi De) Nogla (also YouTuber of same name)
*Real Last Name
So with all of our male OC crew accounted for and ready to be dispatched... Let's go over some disclaimers. First, Strike Witches is created and owned by Shimada Humikane, and the anime is produced by Studio Gonzo for Season 1, and by AIC Spirits for Season 2. The story will take off at the beginning of the 3rd episode. And with all due respect, The Chaos Theatre does not and most likely will not endorse this fan fiction in any approval method of any sort. Now then, with THAT out of the way... BEGIN THE STORY!
The Hero's Ordeal: Strike Wizards
Episode 1: The Witches Aren't Alone Anymore (Part 1)
Tony Kurosaki was just hanging by his gaming desktop one night, playing a game of Team Fortress 2, with a group of friends across YouTube, conjuring up a team of REDs, ready to push the payload cart up to the BLU Team's HQ on Upward Mountain.
Tony is talking with his friends in Skype as they go over the plans of how they're going to push the cart.
"All right, guys. Let's go over the plan, the BLU's Demoman is going to be setting up stickies right outside where the cart is. Kona, you've got that ÜberCharge ready?" He asked him. "Fully charged." Kona confirms. "You and Brian will run out to the cart, activating the charge before the Demo detonates the stickies. Buying us time to push the cart. You two got it?" They both nod their heads.
"Okay, Craig. You've got your Cloak and Dagger?" Craig nods in response. "'Kay. You'll sneak across to the back outside of the spawn point, disguise yourself, kill the Engineers and sap any buildings around." Tony said. "Got it." Craig replied.
"Now, Tyler. Once that bomb is halfway to the second point, you go and build a sentry above and upgrade it as much as you can." He said. "All right." Tyler replied. "Will, Brock, David, and Lui will provide support for you guys to keep them off your backs." Tony said. "Wait a minute, you came up with this idea. What are you going to do?" Brock asked.
"Do or die, I'm gonna slice those bastards heads off while Johnny and Logan push the cart as much as they can." Tony told them. (Administrator): "Mission begins in 10 seconds..." "Alright, you guys ready?" Tony asked. The guys all shout "YEAH!" in response.
"5... 4... 3... 2... 1... To the cart!" The boys rush on their way as Kona and Brian fake out the other team, activating the ÜberCharge to keep themselves safe from the explosion damage.
"Alright. Scouts! Roll out!" Brian shouted as Johnny and Logan start pushing the cart to the first checkpoint. "Guys, I'm seeing a sentry up ahead. I'll go and take it out." Craig says as he runs over to the Engie nest. "FREEDOM!" Tony shouts as he slices the Soldiers one by one with his Half-Zatoichi, clearing the way for the Scouts.
Craig sneaks up to the Engineer, backstabs him, then saps all the buildings in the spot. "Johnny, Logan. It's all clear for now. Push it!" He says as they are able to reach the first checkpoint. "Alright, Logan. Keep on pushing this thing!" Johnny said to him. "Soldier with a Zatoichi up ahead! I'll take care of him." Tony says as he prepares to duel his opponent.
"Come on, then!" Tony says as he charges at the Soldier, but unfortunately loses and is down for 10 seconds. "Crap, I'm down! Will! Cover for me!" Tony shouted in chat. "I'm on it!" Will says as he rocket jumps his way across the map to enemy lines, firing off his Air Strike, eliminating the Soldier, Pyro and Demoman, and market gardening a Sniper below.
"I got 'em! Logan, how are you and Johnny holding up?" Will asked. "We're doing just fine, Will. We've reached the second checkpoint." Logan replied. "All right, guys, I'm back! Tyler, better move that sentry up to the next spawn point." Tony said as he respawned. "Alright. Moving out now." Tyler said as he grabbed his buildings and move to the next spawn point.
"Tony, the next checkpoint is up top a railing slope, the other team is bound to stop us there, what should we do?" Lui asked. "Hmm, about you go and check for Spies? The rest of us are going to try and help the Scouts push the cart." Tony ordered. "Okay then. Good luck." Lui said as he ran off to look for Spies.
"Okay, guys, you see the next checkpoint up there? We're going to have to help Johnny and Logan if we're going to make it to the top. Wildcat (Tyler), stay here and look out for incoming spies. MiniLadd (Craig), get out there and cover Lui's ass." He said.
"Okay, I'll wait here until you guys make it to that checkpoint." Tyler accepted. "I hope you know what you're doing." Mini said as he went to go and help Lui. "Alright, everyone else, let's go and help push the cart." The other boys ran outside to go help push the cart with Johnny and Logan. "Delirious (Johnny), you guys in need of any help there?" Kona asked. "Oh thank god! Took you guys long enough! Get over here already and help us push!" Johnny shouted to them.
The boys all pushed the cart while fighting off the other players rushing at them. "Everyone! Keep pushing!" Brian shouted before Johnny gets backstabbed. "OH SHIT! I died!" He yelled as the team was set on fire while killing off the Spy and Pyro. "Damn it! Kona, heal us!" Brian shouted as Kona did all he can to keep himself and his team from burning to death.
"Kona. How long until the next charge?" David asked. "Just 15% percent left. Hang on." Kona said as the team reaches the third checkpoint. The boys are soon ambushed by the BLU Demoman, firing off a set of stickies by the cart, then soon detonating them, dealing severe damage to the RED team. "Crap! We've got to split! Brian! Will! Keep pushing the cart! Tyler, protect them with your sentry." Tony said.
"Don't worry, Tony. We've got this under control!" Tyler shouted as he sets up his sentry again. "Alright. Kona, Brock, Logan, follow me!" Tony says as they all make a mad dash back to the nearest spawn point. They open the garage door to find Johnny, alive and well.
"Johnny, you're just about time! The others are in need of assistance." Tony said to him. "Kona, switch to your Quick-Fix and follow him outside." He orders Kona. "Right. (switches weapons) So, Johnny. Ready to head out?" Kona asks, with Johnny nodding his head in response.
"Okay. Look out, bitches! Delirious is on his way!" He shouts as he and Kona run back into battle. "Lui, how are things going for you?" Tony asks him through the call. "Um... I kinda got my hands full right now, bro! Bastards are showing up everywhere I go!" Lui said. "Craig, how are things on your end?" "I've just found a sentry nest in the other team's base." He reported.
"Okay, Will, how far are you and Brian at from the drop zone?" "We're almost inside the base, we'll need all the support we can get." Will stated. "There are multiple sentries up ahead, but don't worry. Craig's got you covered." Tony said to him. "Brock, I want you to stay at that spot outside spawn and take out anyone who walks out the base, Logan and I are going to help push the cart."
"Alright, guys. Godspeed to you!" Brock says as he left to go sniping. "Come on, Logan. We've got a bomb to drop." Tony says as the two ran back into battle.
Tony charges right into an enemy Scout, slashes at his head and continues his way over to the cart. "Logan. Head in the other way. I've got this!" Tony orders him. "Okay, I'm going in." Logan responds, running in to the enemy base. "Hang on, guys! I'm coming!" Tony yelled. "I'm fully charged! Tell me when you're ready!" Kona said. "The bomb has almost reached the final terminus!"
"Push it! Push it! Push it!" Johnny repeatedly shouted. "Hey, Brock! We might need some help over here!" Craig said. "Hold on! I'm on my way!" Brock said as he ran to the near safe spot to snipe. "Oh god, look out!" He shouted when he found a Soldier charging at them. The Soldier fires a rocket at them as they take more damage.
Brock fires at his head, effectively killing him. "Alright, Kona. Now's about a good time to activate the charge." Tony said. "Sure, but where's Lui? We haven't heard from him yet." Kona stated before he sees the rest of the other team being burned alive. "Doing just fine. You're clear to drop the bomb." Lui responded.
"Kona, charge me!" Tony shouted. "Okay!" Kona replies as he follows Tony charging into the enemy's spawn point to try and taunt kill an opponent. He is successful in his attempt as an Engineer had chosen the most unfortunate time to head back into battle. "Almost there! Just a few more inches to the drop zone!" Will said.
The rest of the team successfully pushes the bomb into the hole, blowing up the base, and declares victory. Tony takes a screenshot of the end score, when suddenly, a black stingray-like jet flew straight out of the hole and into the sky, and photo bombed the picture. "What the...? Holy shit! Guys! Did you just see that?" Tony questioned the team.
"What? What did you see?" Lui asked. "I think I might have saw it, too." Johnny responded. "So did I." Brian restated. "That's odd. What was that...? Wait, what the hell?!" Tony said as the game suddenly crashed. "Hey, the game crashed! Alright, what in god's name is going on?" Brock asked, seeing as the other's game session had crashed along with Tony's.
"I haven't got a single clue." Tony said. "Hey, Tony. Did you say you saw some black jet fly out of the drop zone earlier did you?" Will asks him. "Yeah. I took a screenshot right after the match had ended, the jet came flying out of nowhere and bombed the photo." He responded. "Do you think you can show us what you've took? We need to know what happened." Kona asked Tony. Tony pulls up the screenshot, and is mortified of what he sees.
"Dear god, this can't be real. Okay, I'm going to pull up my screen now. But you guys are not going to believe of what you're about to see in this screenshot. You guys ready?" They all nod their heads. "Okay. This what I saw before the game crashed." Tony says as he shows his computer screen to everyone in the call as they, too, can't believe what they're seeing.
"No way... Is that what I think it is?" Kona asks. "Have any of you guys seen the anime Strike Witches?" Tony asks them. They all say "Yes." in response. "Then yeah. That thing you're seeing is definitely a Neuroi." He confirms. "I am at a lost of words from what I'm just seeing." Logan said. "Yeah, this like some kind of X-Files bullshit or whatever." Johnny replied.
"Tony, is there a custom model for a Neuroi ship on the Internet somewhere?" Craig asked. Tony searches for one, but doesn't get any valid results. "Nope. There's not a single one at all." "Hmm, it can't be a hack, because no one on the server was using cheats during the game. So what? Is this leading up to something?" Brian questioned.
"Maybe, but I think we all better call it a night. It's getting late." Tony says, seeing the time on his clock is 11 P.M. "Alright. Well, let's try and forget what happened and sleep it over. It should probably fix over by tomorrow." Johnny said. "Okay then. I'm off to bed. See you guys tomorrow." Tony said to them as they say their 'good-byes' for the night. Tony turned off the computer, walked over to his room, and got into bed, already sleeping.
*8:00 A.M.*
Tony wakes up the next morning, eats some breakfast, and got dressed. As he was going to turn on his computer, the power switch didn't turn it on at all. "Huh? That's weird. I thought I had it plugged in." He checks to find that it is plugged in. He presses the power switch again, but the computer still doesn't turn on. "What the hell is going on? I better call Tyler to see if he can help me." He takes out his phone and opens up Skype to call for Tyler.
Meanwhile, Tyler was just starting to eat breakfast, when he is suddenly called by Tony over Skype. He picks up the phone as he greets him with: "Morning, dude. What's up?" "Tyler, you remember about that game we had with the guys last night?" Tony asks him. "Yeah, what's wrong?" He asks him back. "See if you can turn on your computer." Tyler walks over to his desktop, presses the power switch, but it doesn't turn on.
"The hell?" "Is it plugged in?" Tony asked. "Yep, sure is. But it isn't doing anything." Tyler says to him. Tony quickly realizes by that note alone, something was wrong. "Quick! Get the others in the call!" He tells Tyler. "What...! Uh, okay." He replies. "I'm gonna go grab some stuff in-case something happens, and you and the others should probably do so, too." He orders. "Okay then." "Good, I'll be back in a sec'!"
Tony runs into his room, grabs whatever he finds necessary into his backpack, his gaming laptop, mouse, headset, and for hygienic equipment, a towel, swimming trunks, just in case, and a toothbrush, already packed in its own case. Before he leaves his room, Tony looks at the katana hanging up in it's own pedestal, it which he called it the "Half-Zatoichi", originating from TF2.
Tony thinks to himself: 'Hmm, maybe I shouldn't take it with me.' Then he remembers about last night, which made him rethink that over: 'No way. I definitely saw a Neuroi in the game, it wasn't trolling me. Better take it with me then.' He mentally says as he holsters the sword on his back and puts on his backpack. He closes the door and takes his phone to check up on Tyler as he comes back into the call with the rest of the crew.
"So, I'm guessing you guys are dealing with the same problem as Tyler and me as well, are you?" Tony asked them. "Yeah, this wasn't trolling us. This is for real and it's sabotaged our computers, probably for good." Kona said. "What do you think is going to happen now?" David asked. "I'm not sure, but I bet something bat-shit crazy is going to happen." Tony pondered.
"Anyways, you guys got your gear all packed?" He asked the group. They all nod their heads. "Alright, now let's stay calm and-" He was interrupted when he suddenly felt an earthquake rumbling on his feet. "Oh god! What's happening?!" Johnny questioned, terrified. "Great, some Neuroi destroys our game in one night, and now we've got an earthquake?" Will complained.
Then the unthinkable happened. "What the hell? Is that? What the-?! I*statics* su*statics*ing me *statics* HELP!" Brian says before the guys lose connection from him. "Brian? Brian?! What happened? Huh? *statics*" The guys lose connection with Kona as well.
"Kona! *statics*" Then went Logan, "Logan! *statics*" Will, "Will?! *statics*" Brock, "Brock?! *statics*" Lui, "Lui! *statics*" Johnny, "Delirious?! *statics*" David, "Nogla?! *statics*" Craig, "MiniLadd! *statics*" and then finally, Tyler.
"What the? I've lost all connection with them?!" Tony said to himself. Then, out of nowhere, a portal rift high in the sky opens. Tony stares at the ground, as he appears to be floating off from it. He realizes that he is being pulled into the portal. He tries to reach back down, but the gravitational force is too strong. He screams as he is thrown into the dimensional rift with the portal closing in on him.
Tony gets up from the floor and can't believe where he is. "Oh god, where am I? Where the hell did the guys go?" He asks himself before he turns around and finds them stacked up on top of each other. "*gasps* Guys! Oh! Thank god, you're all okay!" "We sure are... Uh, guys? I think we can get up now." Kona says as the rest of the guys tidy themselves up.
"Now then, where in the blazes are we?" Will asked. "I don't know, but it kind of reminds me of that one place in Kingdoms Hearts II where it was pathway between Twilight Town and The World That Never Was. Only difference here is that, it's a lot brighter around here." Tony described. "Yeah, you're probably right about that. It kind of does look like that place." Will confirmed.
"Wait a minute, you guys brought weapons, too?" Tony asks them. "Well, you told us to pack in-case something like this happens, and we all thought of bringing our own weapons as well." Johnny said. Tony looks around to find them holstering weapons that he wasn't expecting them to be carrying.
Will happens to be carrying the Air Strike from TF2, Brian is holding the Tomislav minigun, also from TF2, Tyler has Moss-12 Shotgun from the Uncharted games, Johnny is holding two lever-action shotguns in both hands, Lui has nothing else but a flamethrower, Craig has a .357 caliber revolver in his right hand, carrying what looks like the Sapper, yet again from TF2, Brock seems to be carrying what looks like some kind of anti-tank rifle, Logan is carrying a double barrel hunting shotgun, David is holding a WWII Panzerschreck rocket launcher in his arms, and Kona is holding an M1 Thompson in his right hand. "You know what? I'm not going to bother asking where you got those..." Tony said to them, completely astonished.
"Hello, who goes there? Hello?" Someone said. "Who the hell was that?" Brian questioned. "Sorry if you guys can't see me but uh... Greetings! I am the owner of the rift or whatever you call this place." The voice said. "Okay, someone we can at least talk to in here. So, who are you then?" Logan asked. "Just call me the 'Writer'." The voice told him. "The Writer, huh? *scoffs* How original." Logan said.
"Alright, alright, alright. That aside, let's focus on the main problem here." The Writer said. "Listen, the reason that you're all here is because the Neuroi has specifically targeted you as a new source of power." The Writer explained.
"Wait, how was the Neuroi able to transport to our world like there was some kind of dimensional portal that they opened up for themselves? That doesn't make any sense." Craig inquired, before getting slapped back in the head by Johnny. "You dumbass! They're an alien race, how else would they be able to get into our world?!" He shouted.
"Okay, but what are we doing here in this rift?" Kona asked. "I've sent you all here to protect you from any possible threat the Neuroi could've had on you, should either of you try to ignore them and move on." The Writer explained. "I see..." Kona understood. "Alright, since the Neuroi had fucked with all of your computers, I'm going to try and purge the threat and stop them from spreading across your world, before you-know-what happens. But I'm going to have to send you to another dimension for now." The Writer told them.
"What dimension are we headed for?" Tony asked. "Okay, I'm afraid we're running low on time, I'm teleporting you over to the Strike Witches universe! You're going to have to stay there while I eliminate the Neuroi threat in your world. I don't know how long it'll take me, but rest assured, the Neuroi will be out of your system until the time comes for you to return home." The Writer said. "Wait! How long are we going to be staying there?!" Tony asked loudly as the boys were getting ready to head off.
"I don't know. Maybe a couple months or so. Either way, you'll need to go there to meet with the Witches and stop the Neuroi there!" The Writer said as he opened another portal and sent the guys towards it. "Good luck out there, guys! You're gonna need it!" He says as the boys are floating further away from the rift, being sent over to the Strike Witches Universe.
~Strike Witches Universe, 501st Joint Fighter Wing Base, Britannia, 8:00 A.M.~
The Strike Witches were all addressed to the briefing room to be introduced to their newest member: Sergeant Yoshika Miyafuji from the Fuso empire. Minna clapped her hands to get everyone's attention before saying, "Your attention please. Good morning. Quick announcement: if you hadn't met her yesterday, this is our new recruit. This is Yoshika Miyafuji..."
"Thank you for having me." Yoshika added. "I'm looking forward to meeting all of you!"
"Miyafuji's rank is Sergeant, which makes her the same rank as you, Lynne, so do you mind helping her settle in?" Minna asked.
The one named Lynne gasped before saying, "Okay." Lynne had a white button-up shirt under a light grey vest. Both were covered by a black jacket. There was also a green tie around her collar. She had light tan hair with blue eyes, and she also had green and brown striped socks.
"Good," Minna said. "Now all the documents, clothing, rank, insignia, and identification you need are in here." She gestured to a package, containing a Walter PPK pistol. Yoshika grabbed the Walter PPK off of what she assumed was hers and politely handed it back to Minna, insisting that she didn't need a gun. After this, Mio Sakamoto chuckled and made a comment about how Yoshika's fascinating to watch.
Suddenly, one girl stood up, shouted "That's it!" in irritation, and stormed off. Until...
*WHOOSH*
The doors flew open as a portal had opened up behind them when a group of boys had been forced out from it, all dog piling up on each other before the portal closes in on them. "Arrgh! Good god! Since when did going through portals become such a chore?" Tony inquired. The boys all murmured about their bumpy dimension trip before Will shut them up.
"Hold it for one minute, guys. Do you recognize this place?" He asked them. "Hmm, this looks like the briefing room from the 501st Joint Fighter Wing Base." Kona says before he realizes: "Wait a second! This is the briefing room!" Kona confirms loudly. "Uhh... Guys...?" Brian called for them. "What's wrong, Brian?" David asked him.
"Look around you..." Brian told them. The guys take a look at what's in front of them as they are now in presence of the actual 501st Joint Fighter Wing. The one and only Strike Witches!
"Whoa... Um, hey... Hello... How's it going...?" Will muttered, blushing at the fact that he and the guys are in the same room with a group of girls they recognize from that anime they've watched...

Hey! You've reached the end of the first chapter. First off, thanks for reading my first Strike Witches fan fiction. For someone who stuck with mainly a simliar anime series (I.S.) on FanFiction, this one was kind of fun for me to write. Anyways, if you enjoyed this chapter and want to see more of this, follow/favorite the story if you want to, leave a review/comment down in the box below, and while you're at it, have a look at my other stories if you're interested. And as I mention this in my other stories, constructive criticism is always welcome! Fanfiction isn't the only thing I do. Be sure to check out my YouTube channel, where in my opinion, I put more effort into the videos that I make compared to writing these stories. Links are in my profile page. So this has been the Rocket Gamer, and until then, I'll see you guys in the next chapter. Good-bye, my friends!
