May 23, 2016
Briefing, 8:00am
Greenfield Islands Air Force Base
Donnie's POV:
"Okay time to start the briefing…" Commander Davis said
The names Donnie Turner I'm 5'10" 180Ibs, dirty blonde hair, dark blue eyes…I just got here around 5:00am this morning, I was a rookie USAF pilot stationed in Russia…it was three days ago I was told by my squadron leader I was being reassigned to another squadron as well as being stationed at another base…not believing that I was being assigned to an elite squadron…
"We have a new recruit here today…got here earlier this morning he's our new Wolf 4" Commander Davis said
I was bought out of my thoughts by being nudged; I looked up seeing that the other people in the room nodding at me so I returned the gesture.
"Okay back to business…we have reports of an enemy bomber squadron with escort as well as some ground targets, you need to erase all hostiles from the area…this will also be the rookie's first sortie, you all have you're objective get to it…dismissed" Commander Davis said with a salute
3 minutes later…
"Davis to Wolf squadron…you are clear to engage all hostiles" Davis said
"Wolves break" Wolf 1 said
We broke off into in teams of four, I was on point while the others followed me in…before we left the base I was surprise to see that this squad had XFA-33s, something that I only heard off. I broke off from the group heading for a SAM site beginning my attack run firing 4AGMs and my machine gun destroying the site in a matter of minutes.
"Wolf 4 an enemy has a lock on you evade!" Davis commanded
I evaded the missile rolling left dive bombing the next SAM site but got hit by some of the AA that was around the site but had to break off when I heard the missile alert going off so I had to come back around for another pass successfully erasing all hostiles at that site.
"Wolf 2 to Wolf leader all SAMs in the area have been neutralized" Wolf 2 said
I went wide eyed; they seriously just took out 10 SAM sites that fast while I only managed to take down two. It was at that point I was to go and help with the bombers and their escort.
"Wolf 2 and 4 eliminate the bombers, Wolf 1 and 3 deal the second enemy squadron" Wolf leader said on stereo
"Yes ma'am" we said
I was Wolf 2's wingman as we flew at the bombers firing missiles and machine guns rolled right but didn't see that Wolf 2 turned around flying behind the bombers.
'Man they are fast' I thought
I turned around using my afterburners to catch up to Wolf 2 getting a lock on firing my missiles at the second bomber but it got shot down by Wolf 2 who just sighed in the stereo…
"All targets in the area destroyed" Davis said
I regrouped with the others just as another squadron got on stereo.
"Thanks for the help Wolf squadron" a pilot said
I heard Wolf 1 tell that pilot no problem after that she gave the order for us to return to base.
"Wolf 1…how'd the rookie do?" Davis asked
"Not too shabby, if he applies himself I see him becoming a better pilot…if only the person before him wasn't some cocky and clueless" Wolf 1 said sighing at the last part
I said nothing just continuing to listen to Wolf 1 and the others talking in what I believe was Portuguese, when we got back to base Commander Davis wanted to debrief the squadron leader on the op we completed.
"Hey…" someone said
I looked up seeing another girl, she was still in her flight suit slightly tanned skin, had short brown hair with amber eyes, on her flight suit it had Maj. Richards so I stood at attention but relaxed when she said at ease.
"What's your name" she asked
"Meu nome e Donnie Turner senhora (My name is Donnie Turner ma'am)" I said
I extended my hand to her but then pulled it back realizing that she wasn't shaking it, I then walked past her that's when she said…
"Kate, my name is Kate" Kate said looking back at me
After that I continued to the barracks walking in getting out of my flight suit getting into my on base uniform sitting down on my bunk pulling out a picture, it was of my father, my mother, my older brother, and me…but it was taken years ago, My father was killed by an enemy ace that goes by the nickname 'Black death', that happened months after I graduated high school.
Flashback: 2 years 4 months ago
January, 2, 2014
My parent's house 10:05am
Benton, Arkansas
I came home after being at my friend's house seeing my mother crying her eyes out while my older brother Derrick comforted her looking like he was trying not his best to hold back his tears, I then saw a folded flag as well as the dog tags in my mother's lap. I didn't want to believe that my dad was gone.
"Donnie…" Derrick said his voice cracking
My legs were shaking as I walked towards Derrick and my mom, as I got closer and closer it felt like someone was stabbing me in my chest cutting a hole in my heart.
"H-he c-c-can't be d-dead" I said as I fell to my knees
My mom embraced me as well as my older brother Derrick both of them telling me it'll be okay…I was so torn up by the fact that my father was gone I didn't come out of my room for 2 weeks, it was after I turned 22 I joined the US Air Force wanting to do what my father did and to avenge him.
End of Flashback…
"Tenente Turner (Lieutenant Turner)" someone said
I looked up seeing another girl, she was in uniform light caramel skin, had black hair with a lavender streak lavender eyes, she was standing at the door her arms crossed over her chest her lavender eyes looking me over.
"Voce precisa conhecer o resto da sua equipa (You need to meet the rest of your squad)" she said calmly
"Onde estao localizados (Where are they located)" I asked
"Me siga (Follow me)" she said
I got up just as she walked out the room, I followed her leaving the barracks soon ending up in a lounge area seeing Kate and 5 other girls. That's when all eyes then fell on me, I walked over to a chair sitting down seeing the girl that I followed sitting on the table looking at me.
"Voce vai se apresentar tenente (Are you going to introduce yourself lieutenant)" she said calmly
I was relaxed then looked up at each of them.
"I am Lieutenant Donnie Turner, I was recently reassigned to your squadron earlier this morning…of course I'm the rookie but I know I can get better, my likes are flying, cooking, and drawing…what I don't like is people that are cocky and hard headed" Donnie said shaking his head
Kate then looked at me, her eyes never leaving my own.
"Well that's good to know lieutenant, I am Major Kate Richards, and I've been with Wolf Squadron since I was 18, now I am 21…my likes being flying, fighting, and my plane…my dislikes being when I got nothing to do, having to deal with crazy people unless it's something or someone on base, and thieves as well as liars" Kate said spitting at the last part
I then looked at another girl; she was sitting on the couch looking at me. She had light caramel skin; black hair like the other girl that I followed here, except her hair had red streaks in it along with red eyes.
"I am Lieutenant Colonel Rose Parker, like Major Richards I've also been with Wolf Squadron ever since I was 18 in which I am also 20, my likes are wolves, my plane, and my squad, my dislikes are mainly liars, losing something precious to me, and ignorant people" Rose said
20 minutes later…
They all finally introduced themselves, 1st Lieutenant Raven Parker she's 20 with Lilly and Rose being her sisters, Lieutenant Claire Mcmath she's 20, Captain Katherine Garcia she's 22, Major Nicole Ward she's 21, and lastly Colonel Lilly Parker she's 22…she's also squad leader.
"Eu nunca pensei que seria atribuido a Lobo Squadron (I never thought I would be assigned to wolf Squadron)" I said softly
I was currently in the barracks laying on my bunk in my thoughts, it's amazing but at the same crazy…its pilots out there who are better than me I'm just a rookie well more of a newbie since I'm in an elite unit.
"Torneiro entrevista mais cedo possivel, outro sortie (Turner briefing asap we have another sortie)" Nicole said quickly
I hopped off my bunk quickly changing in my flight suit running out the barracks to briefing, when I got there and sat down the air screamed seriousness…that's when another man walked in a general that's when the briefing started.
"Currently Europe is at war with a coup, they are being led by Ricky Wilburn also known as 'Black death'. He also leads the coup's air force, we have little Intel on Wilburn but we know he is very dangerous and you must stay away from him." The man said
Murmuring was heard as Lilly and the others talked, I just looked at the picture of the man that killed my father with anger and disdain.
"Regroup with an air squadron making their way to Europe and repel the coup forces out of Europe's capital, if you encounter 'Black Death' get out of the airspace immediately" the man said
"This briefing is over Wolf Squadron you have your mission" Commander Davis said
We all stood up saluting Commander Davis and the general, after that we filed out the room jogging to the hangars…
3 minutes later…
We were on afterburners making our way to the meeting point; I was in front of the others leading the formation. I have been silent whole time, I soon heard Wolf 5 come on stereo.
"Wolf 4 you've been silent, something wrong?" Wolf 5 asked
"It's 'Black death' I am thinking about" I said
"Why would you be thinking of 'him'" Wolf 5 said putting emphasis on him
"I'm going to shoot that bastard down" I said plainly
It was silent after that then Wolf 1 got on stereo…
"You heard the General's order Wolf 4 we leave the airspace if we encounter 'Black death'" Wolf 1 said
I got silent then sighed…
"Copy that Wolf leader" I said
After 2 minutes we arrived at the meeting point.
"Wolf leader to Viper leader acknowledge" Wolf 1 said
"Hear you loud and clear Wolf leader" Viper leader said
I saw a 5 F-35Bs flying next to our group, Wolf 1 was telling Viper 1 the mission objective, I was still thinking of 'Black death' getting madder and madder but quickly calmed myself down shaking my head hearing Wolf 1 on stereo.
"Wolves voces tem a sua missao…apagar todos os inimigos (Wolves you have your mission…erase all hostiles)" Wolf 1 said
"Vipers break" Viper 1 said
"Wolves break" Wolf 1 said
With that the mission began, it wasn't nothing big we managed to repel the ground forces since for some reason there wasn't any hostile air targets which had me, the rest of Wolf Squadron, and Viper Squadron very suspicious. It was at that point I heard my missile alert.
"Eu estou cravado (I'm spiked)" I said quickly
I broke off rolling left evading the missile but went wide eyed seeing four targets on my radar and they were all aiming at me. I then had another missile alert so I evaded that one but quickly had to evade two more.
"Oh would you look at that looks like we have a good one here" an enemy pilot said
I then heard another voice on stereo…
"Ah so the son finally show's himself" a voice said
"What the hell?!" I exclaimed
"Wolf 4 to Viper 3 I'm coming in to assist" Viper 3 said quickly
3rd person POV:
Viper 3 quickly made his way flying behind one of the bandits getting a lock-on firing a missile hitting one of them but not taking account to the one that was coming around…it was 'Black death'.
"Viper 3 evade evade!" Davis said quickly
"Damn!" Viper 3 said quickly
The pilot did as he was told but another missile was fired and hit its mark in which it severely damaged his aircraft.
"This is Viper 3 craft damaged craft damaged!" Viper said quickly over stereo
"Viper 1 to Viper 3 you gotta bail!" Viper 1 exclaimed
"I'm bailing out" Viper 3 said over stereo
"This is Viper 1 be advised I have a chute deployed I say again I have a chute deployed" Viper 1 said
"Davis to any available ground units we have green smoke initiate S.A.R, as for any and all available air squadrons leave this airspace immediately!" Davis ordered
Donnie's POV:
I didn't listen I stayed behind, that's when Wolf 8 got on stereo.
"Lobo 4 o que diabos voce esta fazendo! (Wolf 4 what the fuck are you doing!)" Wolf 8 exclaimed
I didn't say anything as I evaded missiles and machine guns; I didn't know what kind of plane this guy is flying!
Lilly's POV:
I couldn't just leave Wolf 4 behind, I quickly turned around as well as the others flying back into hostile airspace…as well as Viper Squadron.
"Wolves break" I said
I was on afterburners flying to where Wolf 4 was while the others engaged the enemy, when I got to where they were wolf 4 he was engaged with 'Black death'…but it wasn't looking good for the rookie…
4 minutes later…
"Wolf 6 to Wolf 1 the hostile squadron is no longer a factor" Wolf 6 said
'Thank goodness' I thought
"Wolf leader to wolf squadron we need to support Wolf 4…Viper squadron make sure no other aircraft enter this airspace" I said
"Roger that Wolf 1" Wolf 3 said
"Copy that Wolf leader" Viper 1 said
Donnie's POV:
I was now behind him for the first time; my plane was heavily damaged while that fucker's plane had not one scratch. I had a few missiles left; the machine gun was really low. It was at that point he suddenly broke off on afterburners heading into the clouds going off my radar but was not after saying 'You are worthy to face me' before static filled the stereo for a second then stopped. I was high in the air, my thoughts mainly on the bastard that got away, but was bought out of my thoughts when I heard Wolf 2 on stereo.
"Wolf 4 you're trailing smoke" Wolf 2 said quickly
We were almost back at base.
"I'm about to go through a flight check" I said
"We'll watch" Wolf 8 said
"Rubbers, check…Flaps, check…Ascend, check…Descend, check…Acceleration, check…Deceleration, check" I said completing my flight check
"Well from here everything checks out Wolf 4" Wolf 3 said
I sighed in relief but at the same time I was nervous since for starters I disobeyed orders by not leaving the airspace, let my emotions get the better of me in which that hasn't happened in a LONG time, and I messed up my plane to a degree that have the mechanics wanting to kick my ass up and around the base…
May 23, 2016
Commander Davis office, 11:00am
Greenfield Islands Air Force Base
Donnie's POV:
"YOU DELIBERATELY DISOBEYED A DIRECT ORDER AND PUT ANOTHER SQUAD IN DANGER…YOUR PLANE WAS A WRECK WHEN IT GOT BACK TO BASE" Commander Davis screamed
I stood at attention as I was getting yelled at for what happened during and after the Op, but I did wince when I heard of how the plane actually turned out. Commander Davis calmed himself down before sitting down in his chair looking at me with a straight face.
"Lieutenant you have disobeyed a direct order and for that a punishment is in order, I need you to pack a days' worth of clothes, there is a cabin out in the forest…you will make your way to that cabin but be mindful, they're wolves that occupy that forest ones that are big" Commander Davis said
I gulped nervously, then was sent on my way…I went to the barracks noticing that the rest of my squad wasn't there but there was a note next to the pack of equipment…picking up the note it said.
'We were ordered to leave the base, we was going to follow you but I guess that won't be happening, good luck and be safe Lieutenant, we'll be back on base tomorrow morning' it read
I put the note in my pocket, then packed some sweat pants, a t-shirt, some socks, boxers, another uniform, my iPod…well that seem to be everything so with that I hefted the pack on my back making my way out of the barracks to a gate walking through hearing a lock.
'This is what I get for not following orders' I thought while shaking my head
30 minutes later…11:30am
I was making good timing but something didn't feel right, when I knew I was halfway there I started to hear growling and it hasn't stopped but got louder, more menacing…I really hope I didn't just step onto a wolf pack's territory, so with that thought in mind I quicken my pace to a light jog but I wasn't exactly watching where I was going at the moment at THAT moment and tripped over a tree root…it's just my lucky day is it not?
'Out of all the things I could do in a forest' I thought as I got to my feet
~Ggggrrrr…~
"Isso nao soa amigavel (That doesn't sound friendly)" I said nervously while looking around
I started to jog well…I think I was running but I don't know, I felt weight lift off my shoulders when I saw the cabin but I was tackled to the ground by something large and very furry. My adrenaline was pumping so being quick I pushed the wolf off of me having some trouble got up going pale.
"Merda (Shit)" I said softly
~GGGGRRRRR…~
I backed away got up grabbing my pack in one hand slinging it over my shoulder, in a dead sprint to the cabin with a pack of wolves giving chase. But that's when I felt like 1,000 needles stabbing into my left leg, I screamed out in pain knowing that if I try and pull away I'm going to be missing a leg, I winced as my leg throbbed with pain. Suddenly feeling my leg being let go, as well as hearing a few whines even a whimper or two which confused me.
I moved my pack away then turned over hissing as my wounded leg touched the ground looking up I was speechless to see that there was seven VERY large wolves laying on or around me…the one that bit me was laying on my good leg it's ears flat against its head, looking at me with a apologetic look whining as it did. Even though it bit me I couldn't just be mad at this wolf for some reason that's the weird part about it, so I reached up putting a shaking hand on its head rubbing the short smooth fur feeling a slight rumble while it pushed its head into my hand not realizing that one leaned in and started to lick my leg causing me to hiss out in pain but after that I felt no more pain which surprised me so I looked seeing wound on my leg was completely healed.
"Hum…voce pode por favor saia de mim (Um…can you please get off of me)" I said
All seven wolves got up, I got to my feet seeing that the commander wasn't joking these wolves were bigger and taller than me!
I looked up at the cabin it was just 300 yards away from where I am currently, when I started walking I heard paws so I looked back seeing that they were following me, I motioned for them to follow me as I started walking towards the cabin I got the thinking…
'Those aren't regular wolves' I thought
When I got to the cabin, I told the wolves they had to stay outside but I got some whining barks...
"Okay okay, you can come in but don't make a mess" I said saying the last part sternly
I opened the door seeing that the inside had a very cozy and homey feeling to it, I set my pack down on the couch, noticing that the living room had a 60' flat screen on the wall, in the kitchen it had all the latest kitchen, cookware, the refrigerator was even stocked up, walking out of their I went into a bedroom in which it had posters of fighters, a bed with some sheets and blankets, a laptop on the dresser, and a nightstand with a lamp on it…I walked out the room seeing the seven wolves lounging around, so I looked them over.
The first one had light brown fur with a white underbelly, white socks, and yellow eyes. Next was a wolf that had black fur with grey streaks, and ice blue eyes, the third looked like a twin except the colors was flipped around and the eyes were leaf green. The fourth had all black fur with a patch of white on its chest and lavender eyes, the fifth one had all white fur and red eyes, the sixth one had dark brown fur with black streak on its ears and paws with emerald green eyes, and the last one had silver fur with black and stormy grey streaks, with cobalt blue eyes…
3rd person POV:
Donnie walked out the living into the kitchen opening the fridge grabbing 2 packs of pork chops setting them on a large cutting board grabbing a knife cutting the packages open laying the pork chops on the cutting board turning around looking in the cabinet for seasons, with that done and over with Donnie started to season the meat to his liking…not poorly seasoned nor over seasoned, just right so after taking time seasoning the pork chops Donnie turned away squatting down opening a set of cabinets to find a skillet and a couple of pots setting them on the stove filling one with water putting some chopped potatoes in it
'Now I wonder what the other side item will be' Donnie thought
Donnie then grabbed some green beans and corn pouring them in a pot setting it on an eye in which it was on medium, already having the potatoes on low as well as adding some seasons to those…now it time to cook the pork chops, turning around grabbing six he laid them in the pan hearing them sizzle.
1 hour later…12:30pm
Donnie just took the last of the pork chops out of the skillet setting them on a plate, the kitchen was filled with such a aroma the wolves was in the door mouths watering , watching intently as Donnie made their bowls, having made 18 pork chops. Like as expert Donnie had three bowls on each arm, walking quick seeing wagging tails making him chuckle as he set three of the bowls down on the floor then repeated the same action with the last bowl already noticing who is alpha of the pack is setting it down next to the other bowls just a couple feet away. What surprised Donnie was how well behaved the wolves acted, it was as if they were well trained…
"You all can eat" Donnie said smiling
With that being said the wolves started to eat (A/N: It's obvious that you should know who the 'wolves' are so just go back and read the note…) taking a small bite of the pork chop having an explosion of flavors, it made Donnie chuckle lightly when the wolves ate the food in a matter of seconds happily yipping, tails wagging in happiness and appreciation after they were done. It was then the alpha walked up to Donnie licking him on the cheek then nuzzled him pulling away yipping happily at him, Donnie smiled at the praise.
"Now…I wonder if you're male or female" Donnie said softly
That's been on his mind ever he bought them here to the cabin…
"Are you all male or female" Donnie asked
One of the wolves what may have been a smirk rolled over on its back spreading it's…'her' hind legs open while the other wolves followed their example.
"All female...wow" Donnie whispered surprised
The wolves then got up as Donnie picked up the bowls as well as his own walking into the kitchen so he could wish the dishes and clean the rest of the kitchen…
4 hours 30 minutes later…
It was now 5:00pm, Donnie was about to go to bed but heard the door open seeing the alpha female walk into the room followed by the rest of her pack. Finding spots around the bed laying down curling up going to sleep, because tomorrow Donnie has to hike back down to base and have to be there by 5:00am.
This was something that I have been thinking on doing but I didn't think it would be good, it was a thought and a few dreams but I have made a story that will have some asking...'What's gonna happen next?' or questions involving a character...
I know alot of you were probably thinking that A Story was good but it just didn't make that much sense, things weren't looking too good for it so this is a more detailed and changed up version :)
I hope you all enjoy the first official chapter to my new story, R & R
