(AN) Here is an early chapter update. Hope you guys enjoy and as always read and review.
As we landed back at base I saw Bravo three in the med bay being repaired and the tugs that had been the other fighters mechanics and friends were slowly packing up their fighter's things to be shipped back to their families. As the three of us were taxiing back to Bravo squads hanger the commander of the airfield came up to us.
"Bravo team report to the main hanger for debriefing."
"sir yes sir!"
At the commander's command I became curious because the commander never ordered a squad to the main hanger unless it was important. We made our way over to the hanger and when we entered we were shocked to see the wreckage of an A-10 thunderbird and the wreckage of a sukhoi su-25 frogfoot in the middle of the hanger.
"what the?!"
"shocking isn't it."
At the commanders voice we all visibly jumped from surprise.
"Sir who are these planes?"
"these Jet are the planes you shot down."
"but why would they open fire on us?"
"these planes were part of a group that wasn't happy about losing their jobs to the new F-15s and the F-16s. They took it sorely and many started to attack military bases or luring the F-15s that had taken their jobs into traps and killing them off."
"so what you are saying is that the frogfoots and the thunderbirds are turning against us?"
"I'm afraid so and because of how this situation seems to be intensifying I am sorry to say this but I'm going to have to ask you to leave the military base Jet."
As soon as the commander said that I felt my entire world shatter.
"sorry kid it wasn't my call. The higher ups are afraid that you are a mole in this base and they want to see you leave this base peacefully. Heh who knows, maybe you can finally go and race in that wings around the globe race that you can't seem to stop talking about. Naturally your tug will stay with you and you can resupply on sidewinders since you are the only one who seems to use them and you can keep the stun rounds you have loaded but the bombs we will have to take back."
"yes sir. I'll report to the munitions hanger for ammo cycling then to my hanger to pack my supplies."
As I turned to leave the commander quickly said, "If you ever need anything don't be afraid to ask."
"I'll hold you to that sir."
After that I taxied over to the munitions hanger and unloaded the bombs and resupplied the two spent sidewinders as well as two extras in my autoloader. After that I found my mechanic/ friend in my hanger with all of my few possessions packed up.
"You seem ready to go Luke."
"I heard the news before you landed and I guessed that it meant they were going to boot you out of the military."
"as usual you were right."
"so were do we go now boss?"
"To the wings around the globe qualifying rounds."
Alright I'll race you there Jet."
"hah good luck beating me Luke."
With that I raced to the refueling station and refueled before I took off towards the wings around the globe qualifying rounds.
