A/N: Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!  After a few days…months…okay a really long time of not writing this story I decided to upload a new chapter (I also got a few e-mails telling me to continue so if it pleases the fans).  I just wanted to say that I've missed you Pearl Harbor peeps, I may not know any of you new people cuz I was here back in the '01 and stopped during the end of the Josh Hartnett craze.  Well anyway here's my baby…

            Danny met up with Rafe after he came out of Doolittle's office.  "So how bad?" Danny asked worried for his friend.

            "Oh, Doolittle let me get away with this one," Rafe shrugged.

            "What do you have a coupon, '5 times the 6th ones free'?" Danny joked.

            "Nah, I brought up the point that they never said we couldn't fly, they only told us practices were canceled."

            "I don't know how you do it."

            Rafe sighed as the two buddies walked back to their barracks.  All of the other pilots were hanging out there on their beds debating what they could do for the night.

            "I hear there's a new club that opened up on the other side of town," Rafe said throwing his jacket on his bed.

            "Yeah, but aren't you married now?" Anthony joked, "I'm sure the misses wouldn't like that."

            "Anthony, just because I'm in a serious relationship, which you've probably never heard of, doesn't mean that I'm married and can't do nothing," Rafe said throwing his pillow at Anthony.

            "Just wait a year," Anthony began, "then see how free you are."

            December soon ended rolling in a new year of adventure.  1941 was to be a year unlike any other.  Rafe and Danny were the closest of friends again and each in love with wonderful women.  None of them thought of war, for them it was more like a nasty rumor that they tried to ignore.  But the upcoming year they had thought they would enjoy turned into the year they would never forget but never wanted to remember.

            A large formation of P-40's soared over Mitchell Field as Captain Connor ordered them to come down.  The planes were all lined on the run way but still two were missing.  Connor didn't need to guess who's planes were missing it was something he already knew, he knew it was McCawley and Walker, it was always McCawley and Walker.

            What are they up to this time?  He thought as he searched for them in the sky.  Just then he saw one swoop past him like a streak of light.  Out of the corner of his eye he could see the other.  Both of them were heading for each other.

            "Danny," Rafe began into his headset, "Why don't we play a little chicken?"

            "Why are you always bustin' my ass Rafe?" Danny replied.  "These aren't crop dusters and it isn't the farm, I'm not doing it."

            "Well I'm coming right at ya so you can either turn or hit me!" Rafe pointed out making Danny realize he had no choice.

            "All right, which way?" Danny gave in.

            "Uh, right, uh no I mean left."

            "So we're going left, right?" Danny asked.  We're not having another mess up! He thought.

            "Right," by this point there were gaps and static making it hard to hear.

            "You mean right as we're going right or right as we're going left?" Danny said panicked, not this again!

            "Now you got me all mixed up!" Rafe complained.

            "Go right!" Danny always chose, "Righty Tighty!"

            At that moment the two massive P-40's made a sharp turn to their right as their bellies missed by a few feet.

            Danny brought the plane back to the ground as he waited for Rafe to follow, but Rafe was not heading to the run way but higher in the sky!

            "He's gonna do it," Danny said to himself.  Rafe climbed higher and higher into the sky as he stood the fuselage straight up vertically in the air.  Holding it for a moment he took a deep breath and allowed the plane to fall forward his canopy on the outside as he arced his way back down to the ground nearly missing the tarp as he looped all the way back to where he had began.  He let out an excited laugh as he realized that he had just completed an outside loop.  Few men had ever dared fewer had completed it.

            On the tarmac the excited pilots hooted and cheered at their buddy's victory.  Rafe brought the plane to the ground and without even getting orders he walked to Doolittle's office, Danny close by his side.
