Chapter 8 - Battle in the Sky


Brian, Stewie, Barbara and the puppies crowded in the plane. Stewie grabbed the controls and pulled the plane up into the air as they joined the Royal Air Force in their mission to Germany.

"Talk to me, Goose!" Stewie said.

"Please don't call me that", Brian frowned.

"You're my eyes, Goose. Keep an eye out for those Krauts."

"Please don't call him Goose", Barbara said. "Goose dies in Top Gun."

Stewie frowned and looked in front of them.

"Uh-oh! Germans dead ahead!"

They looked ahead to see a wave of German fighter planes. The planes fired their guns at the planes. Stewie took control and flipped the plane upside down to avoid the bullets. Barbara looked at the kids who were scared and looking nauseous.

"I doubt we have an airsickness bags here, do we?" she asked.

"Why?" Brian asked.

"The kids", she said. "Their poor stomachs can't handle this flight."

Stewie guided the plane back and forth through the fight in the sky. From behind them, a German plane shot at them, hitting one of the engines, causing them to lose oil pressure.

"Can we fly on just one engine?" Barbara asked.

"Let's hope so", Brian said.

Stewie flew the plane back and forth, trying to avoid the bullets, but the German plane kept shooting up the side of the plane. Lucky for them, they caught a break when a fellow British plane flew by, shooting the enemy down. The pilot gave a thumbs up, starting the back and forth flirting between him and Stewie. Stewie blew a kiss to the pilot, making him wink in return. Stewie waved his hand in modest, making the pilot take off his shirt, circling areas on his chest. That proved to be too much for Stewie as he just looked away with a frown.

The pilot was shot down as a second wave of German planes flew toward them.

"Oh no!" Brian said, "Another wave of fighters! We're out numbered!"

"Oh no we're not!" Stewie said with a smile.

They looked out the window to see Prince Vultan and his army of hawkmen from Flash Gordon flying alongside them.

"Stand by, my hawkmen!" he addressed. "Dive!"

The hawkmen flew, helping the fight against the Germans. They shot their laser guns, destroying the planes. Their help was not enough as a German plane shot at Stewie, Brian, Barbara and the puppies' plane, hitting their remaining engine.

"We're going down!" Barbara screamed. "Quick, get the parachutes!"

"There are no parachutes!" Brian said. "All I could find was this!"

"A raft?" Stewie asked. "We're not sinking! We're crashing!"

They saw the plane coming closer and closer to a mountain. Brian pulled the cord, inflating the raft. He, Stewie, Barbara and the puppies got into the raft and jumped out of the plane. They were light enough to let the raft slowly fall, almost float to to the ground safely. They slid down the snowy mountain, into the river. After falling down a waterfall, they floated safely down the river.

"Where are we?" Brian asked.

"I think we're in Germany", Stewie said. "Look, there's the black forest."

They looked at the forest noticing two trees with mouths were talking to each other.

"We gonna take the whole family on vacation this summer. The 10 of us gonna load up the Impala and head on down to Hotlanta."

"Hey, I heard that. Hey, thanks for the tip on that check-cashing place. I was in and out with one ID."

"You know my boy is out on bail next week, right?"

"Man, seems like yesterday he was in juvie! Hey, say man, when you on your trip, skip that traveler's insurance. That's a ripoff."
