Recovery to Fight
Chapter 4
Gwen hit the boosters as the aircraft lifted up just a few hundred feet. Gwen looked back and saw three locusts behind her. "Hold on back zer!" she said as she tightly banked and the three passengers in the rear fell as they felt the craft turn. Macroth punched a button to open the rear door, and armed the multi-laser in the rear, "Father, I didn't know you could use a weapon!" Macroth began pounding away at the locusts, one fell out of the sky, "I forgot to tell you, my daughters, I was once a Valkyrie door gunner." A locust dropped in from the clouds and sprayed cannon fire at the escaping Imperial transport. Gwen screamed as cannon shots hit her arm and leg, Marie yelled out over the sounds of gunfire, "Hold on Gwen! We're almost there!" Astorina MAB west was in sight, but they started to see and hear hydra flak fire, and it wasn't from the airbase. Gwen looked down through a hole in the bottom of the Valkyrie; the land army was providing air cover. Gwen squinted as she felt blood running down her forehead, the runway was just a few hundred yards away. Gwen felt the aircraft touch down and she fell unconscious.
'Gwen, Gwen, get up Gwen.' Gwen opened an eye, here commander, Sakura Markow was standing over her, "Gwen, get up," Gwen started to put her clothing on when Sakura exited the room, "Vanessa, get up," Gwen heard Sakura say down the hall, "Helena, get up," It seemed that Sakura was arousing everyone. They all met in the hallway, some were still in their pajamas, others were dressed, and some were fresh from the gym area. It was a hodge podge of pilots, Thunderbolt, Lightning, Valkyrie, and Vulture pilots. They all stood in a semi-circle around her, "You all have Marauder training right," They nodded, "Good, follow me." They all looked at each other, shrugged, and then followed. The pilots took their seats in the conference room, "We've found the last three carriers, and we're mustering all the Marauders we've got. Since our recent losses with the following pilots and gunners…" She said as she pointed at the super long list, Gwen could estimate over a hundred names. Gwen raised her hand, "What're ze casualties Commander?" "188 dead, 98 prisoners or lost in action," Sakura said, Vanessa raised her hand, "But Commander, we're only 16," Sakura nodded, "I know, but they said every bit helped. We leave in an hour, so get prepared, and pray to the Emperor."
Visily sat in the seat of his Marauder, he was the head of the Masost MAB east wing, 28 bombers, and 40 destroyers. Sakura was in the destroyer to his right, and a pilot named Gwen to his left. They were on standby. Visily took a drink from his water bottle, when they were ordered to move out, "All Marauders clear for take off," He said as he clipped is mask on to his face, "let's get going." All the engines started up at the same time, creating a huge racket. Visily's wing took off first, followed by the others, They soon met up with other flights from, Astorina MAB, Hasselsoft MAB, Crissen MAB, and Constantinople MAB, totaling to 598 aircraft, the largest bombing run in the Valhallan air corps' history.
Visily watched the skies and the plains, "It's quiet, too quiet," Sakura said. "I know," Visily responded, "Sam what've we got on auspecs?" "Nothing really, its all- No wait, Holy Shit!" Visily looked back, "What? What is it?" He looked at his own small auspec on his screen panel, "Oh Throne of the Emperor," "I know vat you mean," Gwen said. "Its like a whole bunch of engines started at the same time."
