I think I did okay for the first chapter. Also like the title says this will be the title where the guys meet the 501st. How will the witches react to male witches? How will the guys react to finding out they went back in time and in a different dimension? How will the witches react to Stephen's disappointing flirting attempts? Well let's find out shall we?
I don't own Strike Witches, the F-35B Lightning II, or anything really. Just Misfit, no not the misfits from Suomus, I'm talking about my OC's.
"Misfit 1" for talk while "Misfit 1" for thought.
(Story Start!)
Chapter 2: Guys meet Witches, Witches meet guys
It was your usual start of the day at an island base off the coast of Britannia. The base itself seems more like a fortress, castle-like appearance and all that, with a hanger and runway at its front, and ports on the sides. However, this is no ordinary base, no. This base housed the 501st Joint Fighter Wing AKA The Strike Witches.
It's early morning and everyone is doing their usual routine. A black haired woman with a white eye patch covering her right eye is outside training in the woods, a chin-length white haired girl is coming back from an uneventful night patrol, and everyone else is waking up after a good night's rest. Well, that and a girl with brown hair and short pigtails tied by two ribbons is telling a sleepy and blanket covered girl to wake up.
"Wake up Hartmann!" said the brown haired girl as she glared at the sleepy and blanket clad girl, "A soldier from Karsland must wake up and get ready in an early and disciplinary manner!"
"Oh come on Trude," Erica Hartmann said lazily through her blanket covered face, "Just a little more, like seventy more minutes."
"That's not a little more," said Gertrud Barkhorn as she crossed her arms.
"Then forty minutes" said Erica.
"A Karsland soldier's first rule is discipline," said Gertrud with a little frustration, "And the second rule is discipline, and third, and fourth, fifth, and sixth, and seventh so get up!"
"What about the eight and ninth rule?" asked Erica.
Now Gertrud has a tick mark on her forehead and said, "What would happen if the Neuroi were to attack right now, and your still in bed?"
"Relax Trude. We just destroyed a Neuroi yesterday remember," Erica said as she removed the blanket off her face to show that she has short blonde hair and her eyes are still closed, "It's not like the Neuroi will attack today."
"A Karsland soldier must be ready for everything," Gertrude said as she went towards Erica removing the blanket off the rest of Erica's body, showing something that could make a hormonal teenage guy run wild and a give him a nosebleed. Erica followed Gertrud's eyes and she glared at her. Gertrud blushed from the sight, threw the blanket at Erica, and turned around. "W-w-why weren't y-y-you wearing y-y-your u-u-underwear?" stuttered Gertrud anger and embarrassment could be heard in her voice, "Get your underwear on or find something to cover it up! The others and I will be in the mess hall." With that said she left Erica's room.
During the time that happened, the white haired girl sleepily went inside a room, shut the door, and fell on to the bed now asleep. This, however, woke up a pale haired girl.
"Whaaa?" asked the pale haired girl in shock. She looked around, no one's their. She looked down and saw the white haired girl, in her undergarments, sleeping next to her. "Sanya, you got the wrong room you know," said the girl. The white haired girl, named Sanya Litvyak, didn't answer. The pale haired girl, named Eila Juutilainen, sighed, "Just for today okay?" She then got up and covered Sanya in her blanket. She walked over to Sanya's clothes, which were lying messily on the floor, and sighed. "Only today," she said, then smirked. This definitely won't be the only time.
In the mess hall, everyone was having breakfast, and a short brown haired girl and a long, braided sandy blonde girl are serving breakfast dishes that the brown haired girl made.
"Yoshika!" a girl with pig tails called out to the brown haired girl named Yoshika Miyafuji.
"What is it Lucchini-san?" Yoshika asked the pig tailed girl named Francesca Lucchini.
"I want seconds!" Lucchini said waving her plate to prove her point.
"Hai, just a minute," said Yoshika as she walked over to Lucchini and put more food on her plate.
"Urk, what is this?" asked a long blonde haired girl with glasses as she points at something green in one of her plates.
"Well, Perrine that's seaweed," Yoshika answered, "Even Sakamoto-san likes them." Perrine Clostermann walked towards her.
"I said to call her major!" yelled Perrine a blush forming on her face, "I don't care if she likes it or not. I just can't eat without looking at that thing." With that said, she walked away.
"Don't feel bad Yoshika," said the sandy blonde making sure Yoshika doesn't feel bad, "Everyone else likes it."
"Thanks Lynne," thanked Yoshika to Lynnette Bishop, "I'm okay now."
Lynne smiled, unbeknownst to her, Lucchini crept up behind her and groped her breasts.
"Hmm, you've grown Lynne!" Lucchini said, Lynne blushed, then she walked towards an orange haired and well endowed girl and groped hers, "Though Shirley's are still the best!"
"Yes they are!"Charlotte Yeager, or Shirley to her friends, said, proud about her bust size.
In the office, a red haired girl is sitting on a desk doing paper work. The door opened showing the black haired woman with an eye patch walking in.
"Good morning Mio," said the redhead as she stopped doing the paper work and looked at Mio Sakamoto, "How are you?"
"I'm fine Minna," Mio said as she sat down on a chair in front of Minna-Dietlinde Wilcke, "Though I can't shake the feeling that something is about to happen."
"Well, anything can happen," said Minna as she restarted her paper work, "We are fighting the Neuroi after all."
"I ag…" was all Mio said when the alarm went off. 'I've got to go' ran out the office and straight towards the hanger. 'Damn, we just destroyed one yesterday,' she thought as she ran around a corner, 'This isn't part of their usual pattern of attack.' She got inside the hanger and saw everyone preparing to launch their strikers. She got into hers as Minna's voice was heard through the radio.
"The radar shows that this Neuroi is in grid E5 heading towards London," Minna informed them.
"Okay, Lucchini, Yeager, and Litvyak, stay here incase we need back up," Mio ordered, "The rest of you come with me."
"Yes, ma'am," the others said and they launched into the sky. They wouldn't have expected what will happen next.
As Mio, Erica, Yoshika, Lynnette, Gertrud, Perrine, and Eila are flying towards the attacking Neuroi, they heard someone scream.
"OH, COME ON! I CALL HAX!"
They flew faster, thinking that the Neuroi is attacking a ship.
Once they got close to where the Neuroi is, Mio moved the eye patch covering her right eye to show the glowing.
(Mio's P.O.V.)
"Where is that Neuroi?" I said to myself as I scanned the place. I found the Neuroi, but what surprised me is that it's shooting its lasers at four things. Even more surprising is that those things seemed like witches, but how? How come they're not spotted on the radar? "There it is," I pointed to where the Neuroi is, "It's below us." "There are witches fighting it," I said gaining confused looks from everyone, "We will help them."
"Witches?" asked Gertrud, "Why weren't they picked up by the radar?"
"I don't know," I said.
(Regular P.O.V.)
When Mio and the others reached the Neuroi, they heard one of the witches screamed at another.
"Yeah, we know that Sherlock!" the witch said in what seems like a male voice. Wait, MALE! The witches are shocked to hear a male voice. They also saw him shooting a sleek, silver painted gun that shoots what seems like grenades and that occasional bazooka round that man carries with him. "What's next, you gonna tell me it looks like a stingray looking B2 wannabe?" he asked at his teammate.
"Wow, isn't he a rude one," Eila commented on the male witch.
"He's loud," said Erica.
"He needs discipline," said Gertrud as she crossed her arms.
"And what's a B2?" Yoshika asked, "Is it some type of plane?"
"I don't know Miyafuji," said Mio as she and the others stopped and watched as those witches attack the Neuroi, and they seemed to be winning.
Then they saw two of the witches flying straight at the Neuroi, then, split up. One went above and the other below, and both shot a Hailstorm of bullets at the Neuroi.
"Wow, that's good cooperation," said Lynne after she saw those two witches attacking the Neuroi.
"Well, that move is pretty simple to do," Perrine criticized.
They seem to stop firing after that attack until they heard that male witch screamed "Payback time, you stingray looking B2 wannabe with lasers!" He shot a volley of grenades at the tail part of the Neuroi. After that, two other witches, one of them being the one that went below the Neuroi from two attacks before, did multiple flybys at the same tail spot that the grenades shot at.
"Sakamoto-san," Yoshika asked Mio, "Why are they shooting that Neuori's tail?"
Mio raised her eye patch and saw that they are shooting at where the core is at. "Because they are shooting at the spot the core is located in Miyafuji," she answered Yoshika's question. She was proved right as one of the witches, the one that flew above the Neuroi before the volley of grenades began, fired a barrage from what seems to be a multi-barreled machine gun and opened up a core. All of a sudden, two loud cracks were heard across the sky in quick succession and the core shatters, destroying the Neuroi. They seemed to relax a bit as the rude male witch said something that made another agree with him, while the other two are having a conversation. "We should make our presence known to them," said Mio, "After that, we could escort them to the base and find out what they're doing here."
They flew down to the new witches. They stopped midway, however, because the new witches raised their weapons at them. "Why are they aiming their guns at us?" Yoshika asked confused at what the new witches are doing, "Don't they see that we are not the Neuroi?"
"I don't know Miyafuji," said Mio. Then, one of them lowered her (1) gun and the other's followed suit; however, one of them, the smallest, came up to the male witch and smacked him on his back.
"OWWWW! WHAT WAS THAT FOR?" the male witch said. They flew up to the girl's altitude, and they could see them clearly now. All of them wear some kind of sleek blackish grey strikers that spew some kind of red magic from the bottom that looked like big exhausts. They all wear black helmets with blacked out visors and have either Misfit 1, 2, 4, or 5 in a dullish grey color on the side of the helmet and some kind of breather masks on covering their nose and mouth. They are wearing black jackets with what seems like two ribbons that form wings on the right side of the chest and USAF written on the left chest pocket. On the left sleeve on the jacket shows what seems like the Liberion Flag, but instead of having one big blue star at the top left section of the flag, there are smaller white stars surrounded with blue(2). On the right sleeve is an insignia that shows a red face that has scratch marks, a black eye, a tattoo with a sword with fire around the blade at its unmarked cheek, and its tongue sticking out, above it said 33rd Fighter Wing, and below it said Strike Team Misfit. They also have back packs and an ammunition bandolier around the belt.
The one with the multi-barreled machine gun with Misfit 1 on her forehead came up to them and asked, "Um ladies? Are their any air bases around here that we can land on?" He sounded male, wait a minute.
'He sounds male,' Mio thought then she asked herself, 'Is this entire team made up of male witches?' Then she groaned 'Minna will not like this.'
Misfit is having a very confusing day. First, they went through a spinning cloud tunnel without knowing, second, they have to fight that Stephen kept on calling a "B2 wannabe", and now here are 7 witches coming at them. They raised their guns at them. The witches stopped midway and they seemed confused at what's going on. "Stand down," Joseph said as he lowered his minigun, "They are not hostile, but they seemed armed so be wary. Alan, keep watch until we know they are friendly"
"All right Jay," said David as he lowered his X312, "hope you know what you're doing." Nicholas nodded as he lowered both M240's.
Stephen lowered his X306 however. "Damn, they're hot!" he said, "and no pants, times two baby!" Nicholas flew to where Stephen is at and smacked him at his back.
"OWWWW!" Stephen shouted in pain, "WHAT WAS THAT FOR?"
"For being perverted to people that could be hostiles," said Nicholas as he crossed his arms. It's easy for him to be embarrassed when Stephen acts like someone younger than him.
"Alright, that was funny," said Joseph as he started to fly up, "Let's go, we should ask them if there is an air base around here and we could find out what that thing was."
"Alright, I agree on you on that one," said David as he started following Joseph's example, "I want to know what that thing was." Nicholas silently followed him.
"We got to meet the ladies?" asked Stephen with hopes very high up there, "Alright!"
"I'll watch your back from here boss," Alan informed them.
Joseph and the guys could see the witches clearer as they go up. They all are wearing the tops of uniforms that look like from World War II. Two seem to wear Nazi Karsland (3) button-up shirts, one is wearing an Imperial Fuso officer's jacket, while another is wearing a sailor's shirt, one with a RAF jacket, another with a Gallian air force button-up shirt, and one with a Suomus air force button-up shirt.
"Um, ladies?" asked Joseph, "Are there any air bases that we can land on?" The girls were shocked that he was male, however, Joseph was used to it. It's not everyday you see male witches using striker units, let alone jet strikers.
"Yes, there is one in an island nearby," said the black haired girl in the Imperial jacket. Joseph looked at her eyes and realized quickly that she's an experienced soldier.
'She has combat experience in those eyes?' Joseph thought, 'Why is she here, shouldn't she be with the FSDF (4)?'The same thought ran through everyone else except Stephen. He was doing something else. He approached the sandy blonde girl with the RAF jacket.
"Bonjour ma cherre, my name is Misfit 5" said Stephen in his fake but good Gallian accent, "how about you and me go on a date at the city of Paris, the city of love." The girl blushed at his attempt to woo her and started to stutter. Nicholas, noticing that Stephen is being perverted again, came up to him, pulled him away from the poor girl, and smacked him at the back again. "OWWW!" Stephen shouted in his regular accent, "Okay, I think I deserved that."
"You do," Nicholas said as he approached the girl. "Sorry for my friend's action," he apologized, "If he does it again, tell me. I'll make sure he won't do it again."
"It's okay," the girl said still blushing, though the girl with the brown Karsland jacket and the one with a Suomus jacket can't stop laughing at the blushing girl's predicament and Stephen's hurt back.
"Lynne," the girl in the sailor's shirt called out to the blushing girl, "Are you alright?"
"Yes, I'm fine," said Lynne, "Thanks Yoshika."
"Okay," said Joseph awkwardly, then he turned to the black haired woman, "Can you show us the way?"
"We are going back there anyway," said the woman, then her eyes turned very serious, "But if you become a danger to us, we won't hesitate to fire on you."
"Is that a threat?" Joseph asked, he laughed then his tone turned serious, "Unless your girls fired first, we won't be a threat to you."
"Okay, let's go," she said as she and the witches prepared to go back to base.
"But before we go, I need someone to come with us," Joseph said, the woman seems confused at who is he referring too, "Alright, Misfit 3. You are permitted to come back to us."
"Rodger that boss, heading to no pants party," Alan said as he flew off to where the guys are.
(Witches P.O.V.)
The witches wondered who is this Misfit 1 referring to until he said, "Alright Misfit 3. You are permitted to come back to us." Then all of a sudden a loud boom was heard throughout the air as Misfit 3 flew to where they are. He is wearing the same outfit as the others, but he is holding a large rifle with a muzzle breaker. "Okay, that's all of us," Misfit 1 said, "Lead the way ma'am."
As they were flying, Mio radioed in to headquarters. "Headquarters, this is Major Sakamoto, the Neuroi is destroyed," she said, "However, we have five male witches flying with us to base."
"Repeat that Mio?" asked Minna through the radio, "Did you say five male witches?"
"Yes that's correct Minna," Mio said.
"But we only see you and the others in the radar," said Minna "Are you saying that they can't be seen by radar?"
"Seems like it," Mio said, "It's probably they're strikers that is hiding them from radar."
"Alright," Minna said, "Be careful Mio, we can't fully trust them yet."
"I will Minna," said Mio. Perrine approached her.
"Are you sure it's alright for them to follow us to headquarters Major?" Perrine asked Mio, 'I can't believe that Misfit 1 person threatened the Major like that!'
"It's okay Clostermann," said Mio, "That Misfit 1 sounds honest, though we can't fully trust them yet."
Then all of a sudden Misfit 5 shouted, "OW! Thanks, I needed that."
The girls are confused at what Misfit 5 was talking about, probably another perverted thought and Misfit 4 hit him in the back again.
(Guys P.O.V.)
As the guy's are following the witches, the witches told them their names. The black haired woman in the Imperial Navy Officer's uniform was Mio Sakamoto, the two in the Karsland uniform were Gertrud Barkhorn and Erica Hartmann, the one in the sailor uniform was Yoshika Miyafuji, the girl that Stephen tried to woo earlier was Lynnette Bishop, the one in the Suomus uniform was Eila Juutilainen, and the one in the Gallian uniform was named Perrine Clostermann, though she is very mean to Joseph for some reason.
Stephen asked a question in their coms, "Jay, you believe them?"
"Yeah," Joseph said, "They're definitely military."
"How do you know that boss?" Alan asked.
"If you looked into that black haired witch's eyes, you could see years worth of combat experience," Joseph said, "What interests me is that why isn't she in the FSDF?"
"I noticed as well," David said, "What I want to know is what that thing that attacked us was? They could probably hold the answers. Also I think that cloud sent us to a different dimension or back in time."
"Back in time, yeah right," Stephen scoffed, "Hey David, you're head screwed on right?"
"I think it's screwed on very well," David said, "Unless you got another explanation why that thing attacked us or why we have battle experienced witches in World War II uniform and using said war's guns, then, please feel free to say it." Stephen said nothing. "Thought so," David said triumphantly.
"Okay we are in a different dimension or time travel or whatever," said Joseph, "Though, I think they'll call us crazy if we say that we are."
"This can't be happening," Stephen pleaded quietly in the background, "This can't be happening."
"Don't worry Jay, I thought up a very good excuse to what we are doing here," David said.
"What is it?" asked Joseph curious at what David's excuse at what they're doing hear, "Also, Nick, smack Stephen to get his senses back, we don't want anyone to panic right now." Nicholas nodded, came up behind Stephen, and hit him on the back, again.
"OW!" Stephen shouted as he got back to his senses, "Thanks, I needed that."
"That we are a secret task force that only the President of Liberion knows, and he sent us here to assist the Joint Fighter Wing in this area," David explained his excuse. The others nodded at this.
"That might work," Joseph said, "Also, guy's, don't tell them your Air Force ranks, tell them the army equivalent so they won't get suspicious." (5)
"Rodger," said all of Misfit.
"Misfit 1, we are nearing near base," Mio told them.
The guys looked at the base and were amazed at how the base looked. It looked like an island fortress with a modernized runway and port.
"Damn who lived here, Bill Gates?" Stephen asked. The guys sweatdropped at this, though they are still amazed at the base.
"Who's Bill Gates?" asked Yoshika.
"A very rich person Yoshika," David tried to explain without blowing their cover.
At the ground, Shirley and Lucchini were watching them from the runway of the base. "Minna wasn't kidding when she said there will be five other witches coming with them," Shirley said referring to the guys, 'I wonder how fast those strikers can go?'
Lucchini had her eyes in a predatory look. 'Fresh meat,' she thought thinking that the guys are girls that are prone to groping.
(1)-They thought that Joseph is a girl until he talked to them.
(2)-They come from a different dimension, even though the countries' names are the same their flags are different.
(3)-The Neuroi never came in the guy's dimension, so World War II and our timeline happened, just with striker units.
(4)-FSDF- Fuso Self-Defense Force the Fuso equivalent of the JSDF, or Japanese Self-Defense Force.
(5)-Since the Air Force wasn't established until 1947, Joseph decides to play it safe in case they happen to end up before that, which they indeed.
Thanks for all the people that reviewed, favorite/alert, and read this story. Once again, I hope I got the girls' personalities right. Also, to the people who are worried that the guys will be paired up with girls from the 501st, don't worry, they won't. If they will get paired up with someone, it might be girls that are from other JFW's like the girls from 504th or my own OC's. Constructive criticism is welcome.
R&R ^_^
