/The group was celebrating Dylan's 15th birthday, the group thought they might as well blindfold them/
"So where the hell are you taking us?" asked Dylan
"You'll see" said Jennifer
"Is it something to do with the military?" asked Dylan
"Maybe it is, maybe it isn't" said Aelita
/The group got to the hanger/
"Alright take them off" said Yumi
/Dylan took off the blindfold and went wide eyed/
"Where in the hell did you find an F16?" asked Dylan
"I know a guy" said Odd
/Chase walked up to it and looked at it/
"AGM-114 Hellfire missiles, Havok missile pods, and a thirty millimeter nose cannon are available for the F16" said Chase
/He climbed up a ladder and looked in the cockpit/
"OH MY GOD, I LOVE YOU!" said Chase
/He hugged the cockpit as everyone giggled/
"You know how to fly one of these?" asked Odd
"Oh god no, I'm just the person who watches it blow shit up" said Chase
/A pilot walked in/
"So who's flying?" asked the pilot
/Dylan went wide eyed and raised his hand/
"You're not going Chase?" asked Rebecca
"Nah, I think my place is on the ground with a gun, yeah Dylan can have this one" said Chase
"Good cause we only got one ride" said Ulrich
/Dylan's face lit up and he went to get changed into overalls/
"So have you ever rode in one of these?" asked Aelita
"Oh yeah many times, it was very fun" said Chase
"You shoot anyone in one of these?" asked Aelita
"Well, I'm obligated by military law to not speak of it" said Chase
/Before they could ask, Dylan walked out of the other room/
"So you ready hotshot?" asked the pilot
"Oh yeah, I'm ready" said Dylan
/Rebecca gave him a peck on the cheek, then Dylan climbed on the ladder and sat in the co-pilots seat/
"You ever been in one of these kid?" asked the pilot
"A few times, my dad was in the army" said Dylan
"Which army?" asked the pilot
"The United States Army" said Dylan
/The group exited the hanger, then the plane exited the hanger and lined up on the runway/
"Can I do the take off callsign?" asked Dylan
'Sure, knock yourself out" said the pilot
/Dylan put the helmet on/
"Air Traffic Control, this is KR 01 requesting take off" said Dylan
"Uh roger KR 01, you have clearance for take off, its your sky" said ATC
"Copy ATC, my sky" said Dylan
/The pilot pressed several buttons and the engine roared/
"ATC we are rolling" said the pilot
"Roger KR 01 we see it, you have clearance for take off" said ATC
"Engine one, check, engine two, check" said the pilot
/The plane went faster as Dylan took the throttle and lifted it/
"And...We have velocity" said Dylan
/The group watched the F16 take off/
"So how is he?" asked Rebecca
"He's doing great, its not the first time he's been in a plane" said Chase
"So when do we do that thing?" asked Odd
"The thing? Oh that? Yeah we're doing it after this" said Jennifer
/The pilot was starting to do barrel rolls/
"Barrel rolls?!" asked Yumi
"Man I remember my first one, sucks they didn't have a doggy bag on board" said Chase
"And for once I lost my appetite" said Odd
/In the plane/
"So you do this often?" asked Dylan
"Yep, I love it! How are you enjoying yourself?" asked the pilot
"I love this plane, I only wish I was back in Iraq with one of these, killing insurgents in the fresh air" said Dylan
/The pilot gave a weird look, but then he realized Dylan must have been talking about a video game or something/
/With the group/
"I've been meaning to ask, what war were you and Dil in?" asked Ulrich
"Tons, the Iraq war, the Afghanistan war, the standoff in Kashmir, the Libyan civil war, a few in Africa, the one in Syria, and a few others" said Chase
"Woah, you're not a stranger to combat" said Rebecca
"We aren't, we know what to do" said Chase
"Hey they are about to land" said Yumi
/They looked at the F16 and sure enough, it was just starting to land on the tarmack/
"Lets get back to the hanger" said Jeremie
/They started walking towards hanger #9/
/Dylan came out after the pilot, he hit the ground as the group walked back in/
"So, how was it?" asked Chase
"Awesome, reminded me of when we fought those Iranian fighters in Hormuz" said Dylan
"What the hell are you two talking about?" asked Jennifer
"Nothing, just reminiscing" said Chase
"So where to now?" asked Dylan
"Spoilers are bad, didn't I ever tell you that?" asked Chase
/Rebecca put the blindfold on again/
"Is this really necessary?" asked Dylan
"Yep" said Rebecca with a grin
/They took a taxi back to Kadic, and the group led Dylan over to the Hermitage/
/The group knocked on the door and Franz answered/
"Hello everyone" said Franz
"Hey dad, we're here for that thing" said Chase
"Alright, I'll lead you to it" said Franz
/They walked inside as Anthea saw them, Aelita put a finger to her mouth as a signal that everyone needed to be quiet/
"What the hell?" asked Dylan
/They walked to the backyard/
"Will somebody tell me what the hell is going on?" asked Dylan
"Take off the blindfold" said Rebecca
/He took it off and gasped as he saw several guns, and targets that had Nazi and Communist symbols on them/
"Chase told us how you hated the same things he did" said Rebecca
"Really? Thanks" said Dylan
"No problem" said Chase
/Dylan walked over and picked up a gun/
"An old Tokarev TT-33? Chase where do you get these?" asked Dylan
"All I'll say is that I know a guy" said Chase
"You and your enigmas" said Dylan
/Chase and Rebecca walked next to him and picked up their guns/
"Alright am I holding this right?" asked Rebecca
"You're doing great" said Dylan
/Franz set up the targets and ran out of the way/
"I've never seen this many guns" said Anthea
"Yeah I know" said Franz
/Dylan, Chase, and Rebecca aimed and shot, Rebecca hit the bullseye every time causing Chase and Dylan to go wide eyed/
"Was that any good?" asked Rebecca
"Good? No it wasn't, it was great!" said Chase
"Where did you learn to shoot like that?" asked Dylan
"Video games" said Rebecca with a smile
/She put down her gun and picked up a Springfield M1903/
"Ah good choice, the good old M1903" said Chase
/She aimed and hit the center of the swastika with all of the rounds/
"That was a great shot" said Ulrich
"I guess I'm pretty good with guns" said Rebecca
/They walked inside, sang happy birthday, ate the cake, opened the presents, you know... the whole nine yards/
