Prologue:
The year is 2010 and the Osean Federation and the Union of Yuktobanian Republics are at war for reasons unknown. The Yukes have been on the offensive against Osea for a month, preventing Osea from launching a counterattack. The Yukes have first attacked the aircraft carrier Kestrel and the 3rd Osean Naval Fleet. They launched an attack on the Osean Air Defense Force Air Base on Sand Island which is also known as the home of the Four Wings of Sand Island. Both attacks ended in failure but the general mobilization in the Eaglin Straits was a failure for Osea because of the 3 carriers that participated in the rendezvous… only 1 made it… the Kestrel. The other 2 carriers the Buzzard and the Vulture and their naval fleets including numerous squadrons of fighters were destroyed by the Scinfaxi a Yuktobanian submarine carrier capable of launching ballistic missiles that destroy everything below 10,000 feet. The Yukes also attacked the Basset Space Center where the SSTO that was carrying a laser cannon to the Arkbird. The Yuke attack on the SSTO was a failure but the Yukes attacked Sand Island almost immediately when Wardog returned to Sand Island. The Scinfaxi was sunk in the failed Yuke invasion attempt along with the majority of their naval fleet. Then the Yukes tried to destroy a transport plane on a top-secret mission carrying an Osean ambassador to a meeting point at North Point to hold peace talks between Osea and Yuktobania but the talks have ended in failure because the Arkbird's laser cannon was sabotaged.
Now on October 31st, 2010 the Oseans have launched an invasion of Yuktobania on the Bastok Peninsula. The invasion was a success now Wardog Squadron and their flight of F-16C's are now heading back towards Sand Island with medium fuel and with low ammo.
Captain David Cooper or Blaze's F-16C has 12 missiles, 3 bombs and 273 rounds of ammo left. 1st Lieutenant Kei Nagase or Edge's F-16C has 5 missiles and 294 rounds of ammo left. 1st Lieutenant Alvin Davenport or Chopper's F-16C has 3 missiles and 172 rounds of ammo left. Finally, Senior Airman Hans Grimm or Archer's F-16C has 6 missiles, 1 bomb and 392 rounds of ammo left.
David Cooper's Point of View (POV)
It is a rainy day for our 4 heroes as they fly back home. Unfortunately, the flight path Wardog is taking will take them in the middle of a massive storm in the middle of the Ceres Ocean.
David Cooper 'Blaze': Thunderhead, this is Blaze. There is a massive storm on my radar. Requesting permission to alter course to avoid the storm?
AWACS Thunderhead: Negative, Blaze. This storm also covers Sand Island as well. We're also in the storm as well, we'll be at Sand Island in less than 5 minutes.
Chopper: Damn, that is not what I wanted to hear!
David Cooper 'Blaze': Understood, Thunderhead… I sure hope that nothing happens in this storm.
Nagase: I hear you on that, Blaze.
Grimm: I really don't like storms, Captain.
David Cooper 'Blaze': Me too, Grimm.
As Wardog flies into the storm. The turbulence is getting rougher and rougher with lightning increasing in intensity and increasing in lightning strikes per minute. Soon a lightning strike came right near my plane forcing me to flinch I also looked at my plane console and I saw that malfunctions are occurring.
David Cooper 'Blaze': Guys, the lightning is playing hell with my instruments.
Nagase: You're not the only one, I lost my radar, Blaze.
Grimm: My engine is losing power, I can only fly at half of my speed, Captain.
Chopper: Hey *static* ly *static*.
David Cooper 'Blaze': Chopper, your radio is malfunctioning. Edge, Chopper reduce speed for Grimm.
I lowered my throttle to half to accommodate for Grimm.
AWACS Thunderhead: This is Thunderhead. My radar must be malfunctioning because a large anomaly has been spotted within the storm. We can't tell what it is but it must not be good.
Chopper: M *static* re useless!
David Cooper 'Blaze': Guys maintain course and speed. We'll get out of this… I hope.
AWACS Thunderhead: This is Thunderhead the storm is sending out weird readings it's *static*
Then a huge white flash occurred just a second after the radio cut out. The flash was so bright I had to lower my visor to cut out the glare but it didn't do any good so I attempted to shield my eyes with my left arm.
Author's Notes
This is the prologue for the story. It's not much but for it does show how the story start. This is the first time I uploaded any story to Fanfiction so please don't put me down because of it. I will be continuing the story as I go along. The story rating will probably be M just as a precaution. Thank you for your time and your understanding. I also placed a warning just to let you know what to expect and since the character "Blaze" in Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War is not identified I practically made him identifiable with physical descriptions and stuff like that.
