Meanwhile, on the other side of Claros at the Emmerian Air Force Base Talisman is out for a stroll to his hangar to see how the mechanics are doing on the repairs for his aircraft is going and along the way he bumps into Bartlett who was doing god knows what. "Hey Talisman, where are you headed off to?" Bartlett asks. "I'm heading off to my hanger to see how the repairs on my plane are coming along." Talisman replies. So after that, they part ways to do what they were going to do. After about five minutes of walking, Talisman finally gets to his hanger and the mechanics look like they are putting the finishing touches to Talisman's plane. "Hey guys, how are the repairs coming along?" Talisman asks. "It is almost done, it should be done in about 10 minutes and we also upgraded your engines to the F119-PW-100 turbofan engine courtesy of ISAF to help you save fuel so that way when you are needed to be deployed on the other side of the continent or to another country, this engine will get you to there and back while also conserving your fuel considerably and to top it all off this thing can go pretty fast without aid of the afterburner." One of the mechanics comes out of one of the landing gear compartments. "Thanks, after all, I have been having some problems with fuel leaks. Alright well thanks for the update, keep up the good work." Talisman said. So he turns around to heads towards the General's office to see if there are any new missions that came in for him to do. After about another five minutes he makes it to the Generals wing and now is making his way to his office. He comes to the door and knocks to see if he is there, and then a voice comes from the other side of the door that says, "Come on in." Then Talisman opens the door, stands at attention and gives a salute to him. "At ease. So what brings you here Talisman?" The General asks. "I came to see if there are any sorties that need to be done, sir." Talisman said. "There is a patrol sortie I have planned for someone willing to do it." The General replies. "I like to do it, sir, after all, nothing helps me put my mind at ease than a flight, sir." Talisman answers. "Alright then, here is the card to the mission briefing." The General said and gets a card out of desk to give it to Talisman. "Thank you, sir, I will get this done, effective immediately." Talisman said. "Anything else Talisman?" The General asks. "No sir." Talisman replies. "Dismissed" The General said and sits back down at his desk and Talisman makes his way out and heads to the briefing room which is at the end of the hall and approaches the door he enters his code to open the door and unlocks and he grabs the handle and pushes the door open to the briefing room. Upon getting to the table he goes to where the General stands to give the briefing to all the flights that are participating in the operation but in the case of Talisman being the only one taking part in the operation that he found out that this mission is the only one available so Talisman inserts the mission card into the card reader and the recorded briefing has started, so Talisman goes and sits down in one of the chairs on the side and watched the briefing. "One week ago at 1220 hours we spotted an unknown aircraft in origin but when the radar contacts popped up to the north out towards the ocean, our radar went out and the best possability is that they were being jammed or we had a power outage. We had our electricians check to see if it was a power outage and they came up empty handed. So it is most likely they jammed our radars and we sent ground troops to check it out and they also didn't see anything like bomb craters or tracks going out of that area and they have come up empty handed on that as well. Anyway, we want you to do a sweep of all the radar rings and see if something slipped in and we have also installed a radio that is upgraded so now you can use your radio on higher frequencies if you get jammed. We are also going to put a camera module onto your plane and it works just like you were firing a missile but you will take a picture. However, we will give you ammo for the gun on the plane but don't use it unless you are fired upon. Once the photos are taken make a fast retreat so we can analyze the images for the origin of the aircraft. And here is a little something that we haven't done before, you can bring whoever you like to your patrol to make things easier on you. That is all." And with that, the briefing ends and the screen turns off. So Talisman gets up and takes the card out of the reader and pondered who to bring and what kind of planes they should take to do the patrol. So after standing there thinking he finally snaps out of it and starts to make his way to his room to plan who he wants to bring on his patrol but he doesn't know anyone else besides Shamrock but he had to give up flying due to his crash trying to get data to help take out the chandelier's backup cooling unit and Barttlett who has been hanging out and teaching other cadets when they need their daily lessons. So he has an idea that may or may not work and that is to contact other bases that are close or far enough from where his base is. As he gets up to go and make some calls Captain Bartlett walks in and sees Talisman getting up from the desk and starting to make his way to the door. "Hey Talisman, where are you going?" Bartlett asks. "I am going to go make some calls for a patrol mission I have been assigned to." Talisman replies. "I know a couple of people who could help you and all we need to do is call the base because, they are close to it and have the base call them and that way they will be ready to meet up with you but I am sure you want them to come over here first and then all of you can take off together." Bartlett said. "All right, but are they any good?" Talisman asks. "Yes they are and that is why I trained them very well but one them is somehow still alive after all the gutsy decisions she has been making while the other, well lets just say he rose through the ranks pretty fast." Bartlett said. "All right go ahead and call them and I will find out if there are any other bases near here and call them up and see if they got anyone available and willing to help out." Talisman said. So they start making their way out to make some calls.
