I do not own Ace Combat 04 : Shattered Skies. This is a fan-made sequel to this game.

Chapter 1: First Strike

Mobius Squadron got into battle formation. The squadron consisted of 100 planes, 99 F-22 Raptors, and a lone SU-37 ace called Mobius 1.

"Mobius Squadron, this is Skyeye. The Eruseans have again declared war on the ISAF states. We will initiate the first strike of the war. Because the states are only in the North Point area, and because we completely pulled out of the Erusea continent 2 years ago, we have no hold on Erusean land. This strike will mainly be a test to see how strong they are compared to how strong they were during the first Erusean War. Destroy any Erusean Military planes and facilities. Skyeye out. Turning command over to Mobius 1!"

"Mobius 1 here, break formation and pick your targets at will. Your F-22's are stealth, but my SU-37 isn't, so the Erusean bastards only scrambled 5 planes. Don't worry about the planes, take out the AA complexes and the airfield first. I'll handle the bogies."

"Roger."

Mobius 1 accelerated out of the formation. The other planes quickly descended, getting to a low altitude for a strafing run on the airfield. He quickly saw a formation of 5 enemy F/A-18 fighters.

"Tally-ho on the ISAF bandit...Oh my God, it's the ledgendary ribbon from the last war! Shi-"

The radio signal was cut of when Mobius 1 let of a missile, turning the F-18 into a fireball.

"Oh no, the ribbon got squadron lead!"

Mobius 1 swerved his SU-37 around for another missile strike. He was able to unleash 3 missiles into another 3 planes, each turning into a fireball.

"And now for the last one..."

The lock-on sign was beeping now. Mobius 1 fired the missile, hitting the plane, but not destroying it.

"Lucky little bastard, let's see you get through this!"

He opened up on the bandit with a hell fire of Vulcan Cannon rounds. The plane didn't exploded, but it's engine gave-up due to multiple cannon hits.

"That's a kill!"

Mobius 1 looked around, seeing no more bandits. He descended below to where Mobius Squadron was strafing the hell out of the Eruseans.

"Mobius 1 to squadron, status report?"

"Squadron the Mobius 1, the airfield is out sir. We're working on the AA complexes, and we haven't started on the Naval Yard yet. No casualties, although Mobius 46-88 have gone back to base due to damage on their planes."

"Okay good work, Mobius 1 out."

He decided to get to work on the Naval Fleet. Switching to his UGBL free-fall bombs, he started a dive onto the flagship, Aristophanes.

The battleship crossed into his bombsights.

He released the bomb.

"Flagship Aristophanes sunk."

"This is Aristophanes. All ships, send lifeboats and fireboats. We are captsizing, I repeat captsizing."

Eventually, the rest of Mobius Squadron finished off the AA facilities, and joined Mobius 1 on bombing the ships. By the end of the strike, they destroyed 16 ships, 88 AA facilities, and 1 airfield. Not bad for a first strike.

"Skyeye here. All enemy facilities are either destroyed or damaged. All aircraft, RTB.
