Pilot Wings: The Kevin Dooley Story

By: Chaos0283

One: Thunder Struck

This is one long ass ride....

The cool grip of the control stick that the pilot felt under his gloved hands let him know that everything was going to be okay. Even though the definition of okay was pretty much fucked up at this point, he was still going to hold on to what little sanity he had left after all the thing's that had been going on within Raccoon City lately.

Looking out the front glass window of the blackhawk helicopter as it flew over the RPD barricades down below at the entrance to the Arklay Mountain/Forest, RPD Pilot Kevin Dooley sighed as he thought of why exactly they were out here.

About twelve hours ago, a group of about five campers went missing in the forest. No one had seen or heard from them in two days, not even their familes. Everyone knew how it was, wait twenty-four hours and then you can declare them missing.

Well, Kevin looked at it that there was no way they were going to find any of the missing campers now.

The resent slew of murders that had been going on in and around the forest, had left everyone in a wide shock. Over ten people were already dead: children and adults. No one knew what was causing the murders, but it had been declared as cannibalism, which is why they were being sent in to investigate.

"The gauges look fine.." Said the co-pilot, Edward Dewey. Edward looked over at him and flashed him a crooked smile, there was no doubt that he was stoked about looking for the cannibals, since his two nieces were the first victims. "...you okay?"

Kevin nodded slightly. "Im fine"

But that was a lie.

Kevin wasn't fine at all, knowing the threat they would soon be facing, how untrained with firearms he was and although he was a great pilot, he hated the thought of having to actually use a gun on someone, cannibal or not.

"If you say so", Edward shrugged as he went back to monitoring the control panel.

Edward was a really good friend of his. Even though they had like a ten year ago difference, it never stopped the two of them from having a good time together. From going out to bars, to strippers, him and Edward always had a good time. But on a more professional level, Edward was also the brightest of everyone here, except Rebecca of course. He was like a Barry Burton version for Bravo Team, always there to look out for them and always willing to sacrifice anything for them.

Taking his eyes off from the view in front of him, Kevin took a moment to glance at everyone that was in the back of the 'copter.

The first person to catch his eyes, was Richard Aiken. A very lovable guy, just been transfered out of the marines to join S.T.A.R.S. Bravo Team, not even two years ago. He was the communications expert of the team. A very well known chooser in the shotgun division of weaponry, Richard sported an Remington M870 pump-action shotgun, loaded to the wire with power, curtousy of Robert Kendo. Everyone also likes to joke on him for having a mild attraction to the youngest member of the team, Rebecca Chambers.

Sitting beside Richard was Forest Speyer. The mechanical expert of the Bravo Team. Forest is a good friend of chris redfield and they used to spend alot of time togather. Forest is a great sniper in addition to his duties as Bravo's vehicle specialist. He is a consummate professional and his work earns him great respect from the other members. In addition to the regular firearm, Forest carries with him a Milkor MGL, a semi-automatic multiple-shot grenade launcher designed to kick ass on any given day.

Across from Richard and Forest was Kenneth Sullivan. the chemical specialist of the Bravo Team. A quiet but very talented field scouting officer. Also an expert in chemistry. He wonders why his chemical experience would be necessary in Raccoon City but quickly discounts his hesitancy since Wesker himself sought him to enlist in S.T.A.R.S.

Looking up in the front, Kenneth nodded slightly to Kevin. Kenneth wasn't one for small talk, so Kevin just flashed him a smile and then went to examining the others.

Next to Kenneth, was S.T.A.R.S. Bravo Team Captain Enrico Marini. he is a true leader and has a leading quality which not alot of people have. Enrico treats his team like they are his own family and in return the bravo Team also respects him alot. Bravo Team's leader and Wesker's second in command for the S.T.A.R.S. unit, Enrico feels threatened by the arrival of the Alpha Team, thinking that Chris Redfield or Barry Burton may end up replacing him as best to Wesker.

Lastly, was Rebecca Chambers. Youngest Member of the team, where she is the residing field medic. She is a value member of the Bravo Team but she lacks the physical strength and the stamina of most of the members of the team. She is a very intelligent women despite these weaknesses and has proven herself to everyone. She is also known take control of a situation without it letting it take control of her. But her skill with first aid makes her invaluable. Rebecca has just been transferred to the S.T.A.R.S. Bravo Team where she is acting as the only medic in the team, she knows herbs as well as the other members know their guns and she can cure a life faster then they could kill one. It hasn't been long since she her career started and she's already taken in the team for a serious operation.

"Hey, Kevin?" Edward said, breaking him from his view and looking over at him. There was a look of concern on his face. "You think...you know, maybe those hikers are okay?"

Kevin already knew what he was thinking of. He knew his best friend had to be thinking of his two nieces: Rebecca and Pricilla McGee.

They had been the first two victims of the cannibal murders. Ever since that day, Edward had been trying his best to crack the case, but he had been failing horribly at it. Making wrong judgements, accusations that were under false pretense, he was on the verge of being suspended if he didn't soon change the way he was handling thing's.

"Don't worry.." Kevin said soothingly. "..Everything will be..."

BOOM!

Being cut short, both Kevin and Edward began to scramble with both control panels as loud shouting and cursing could be heard coming from the cabin.

Looking out the window, Kevin could see black smoke spewing just in view of the top part of the window. That could only mean one thing. And before he could even think it, Captain Marini was already shouting at them.

"What the hell was that?" Enrico asked, quickly getting up from his seat and walking over to him and Edward. "Everyone grab a safety harness! Dewey, what's going on?"

Edward wasn't even looking at him. "Engine failure, emergency landing!"

Keeping a straight face, Kevin nodded as he heard Enrico yell for him to take the helicopter down.

It wasn't the most graceful landing he had ever done before, but it sure as hell didn't kill any of them when they touched down inbetween a group of trees.

Letting out a sigh of relief, Kevin gave a thumbs up as Enrico went around asking if everyone was okay.

After making sure everyone was okay, Enrico looked towards the cabin door. "All right, people! We seemed to hit a little snag, so let's pile out and check our situation."

"Yes, sir!"

"Dooley, I want you to stick around and get Alpha on that radio. And if you can, try to see what exactly went wrong with the chopper. I was sure that it passed inspection earlier today."

Nodding, Kevin smiled. "Yes, Captain"

As everyone began to pile out of the cabin, Kevin turned back to see Rebecca staring at him. He wasn't sure why she was, but she gave him a thumbs up as she stepped out of the 'copter, just after Forest and Richard.

"Be careful Kevin" She said softly.

He smirked and gave her a firm salute, then the door was closed behind her.

"Check the current position we are in and investigate the area," Kevin heard Marini order, seeing him split off in his own direction and leaving the Bravos to secure the area themselves.

Turning to face the control panel, Kevin took off his helmet and wiped his sweaty forehead with the back of his hand. Blue eyes scanned the control panel, picking up the mic to the radio in front of him and then he began to speak into it.

"This is Kevin Dooley of S.T.A.R.S. Bravo Team" He said calmly, taking a deep breath. "HQ, come in? Over"

"Roger that Kevin, this is Brad. Over" Came the voice of Chickenheart Vickers, his voice crackling slightly.

"Brad. I need you to report to Captain Wesker that our helicopter has gone down, we need assistance" He turned towards the window. For a second he thought he had seen something moving through the mist that was cropping its way around the helicopter. Maybe his eyes playing tricks on him. "The rest of the team has gone out to secure the perimeter"

"Come again?" Brad's voice said, freaking out. "Did you say you crashlanded? Your signal is very weak and im getting nothing but mostly static..."

Great.....

The radio had just gone out. There was no way of getting in contact with Alpha Team now and unless Richard was having better luck that he was, there was no way they would be.

Breathing heavily, Kevin suddenly went to high adrenaline as he heard gunfire from somewhere nearby. Reaching for his handgun, Kevin pulled it out and slid the clip in, cocking it back and then sliding the door open slightly as he looked around for signs of any of the others.

Nothing but silence, fog and the crickets chirping in the background.

Author's Note: Well, the first chapter of my Kevin Dooley/Edward Dewey fanfic has arrived. It took me a while to think on who I wanted this fanfic to be focused on. I knew I couldn't use Richard and Forest, since someone had already done one on them and Rebecca's story is told through RE0. And I don't really like Kenneth or Enrico that much, so that put them out. So, I decided to do it on Kevin and Edward. The two least known members of Bravo Team, leaves me a lot of room to develope my own ideas into their personalty aside from what is little known about them. Oh and no, this wont end with just three chapters, I have a nice little suprise for my viewers within the next two chapters. So be looking for the next chapter and I hope you enjoyed. =) I'd like to end this by thanking anyone who reviews, favs and likes this in advance. Plz R&R. Later.
