Hello everyone. LooneyAces here with another new story. This is sort of the continuation of my other story LOONEY TUNES: SHATTERED SKIES, except this one takes place in the year 2016. Anyway, because it takes place in the Shattered Skies Universe, Looney Tunes and its characters are own by Warner Bros. and Ace Combat is owned by Namco-Bandai and Project Aces. The fictional characters are mine though. Hope you enjoy.
Chapter 1: Call to Duty.
It is early morning in Acmetropolis University on June 3rd, 2016. At a apartment at the university, Bugs Bunny woke up to start his day. His roommate Daffy Duck also woke up as well. They have been waking up early for the past few days as they are preparing fo the biggest day of their lives, which is graduation day. As a matter of fact, graduation day will be tomorrow. Anyway, Bugs and Daffy started their morning routine. Soon, Bugs and Daffy were greeted by their girlfriends Lola Bunny and Tina Russo Duck. Anyway, Bugs, Lola, Daffy, and Tina were just hanging out at the apartment.
"Beautiful day today, isn't it?" Bugs said.
"Yep." Lola replied.
"I can't believe we're gonna graduate tomorrow." Tina said.
"Times does fly fast." Daffy said.
Afterwards, Alvin, and all of Bugs and Daffy's friends shows up to have a gathering since today is the last day of the existence of the group known as the Tunesquad. Even members of former group known as the Jocks shows up for the gathering. While the gathering was taking place, there was a knock on the door. This was odd for Bugs. Everyone was here, so could be at the door. Bugs goes to answer the door. To his surprise, it was Harrison, the USAF sergeant that he met when he joined the USAF.
"Sergeant Harrison? What are you doing here?" Bugs asked with concern.
"Major Harrison, now." Harrison said.
"Oh, congratulations on the promotion." Bugs said.
"Thank you. Anyway, mind if we talk in private?" Harrison asked.
"Hold that thought." Bugs said as he turns around to face Daffy. "Hey. Daffy, keep an eye on the gathering."
"Sure thing, buddy." Daffy said.
Bugs heads outside and closes his apartment door to talk to Harrison.
"What's going on, Major?" Bugs asked.
"The Air Force needs you to be call back to duty." Harrison said.
"Can't they wait for a little longer? My graduation is tomorrow." Bugs asked.
"The situation is serious. The Joint Chiefs of Staff and Donaldson said that you're the United States' only hope to stop a growing Free Erusea threat." Harrison said.
"That terrorist group that I heard in the news yesterday?" Bugs asked.
"Yes." Harrison said.
"Okay, what exactly do the Joint Chiefs do they want with me? The war's been over for three years and they should know about my graduation day." Bugs asked.
"They want you to sortie, head to multiple locations, and destroy them in a single day. If you do accept this, you'll be brief at the base." Harrison said.
"Might if I talk to my girlfriend about this?" Bugs asked.
"Yes, but I have to warn you, you have an hour to make up your mind." Harrison said.
"Okay. Come inside." Bugs said as he and Harrison heads inside an apartment.
"Anyway, Major, you want a drink or something?" Bugs asked.
"Well, I am thristy. I'll have a water." Harrison said.
Bugs heads to the kitchen to give Harrison a glass of water before calling Lola to speak with her private.
"What is it, Bugs?" Lola asked.
"The Air Force is calling me to duty once more, today." Bugs replied.
"What, can't they wait till after tomorrow?" Lola asked with concern.
"I'm afraid not. It involves that terror group that attacked the United States yesterday. Free Erusea." Bugs replied.
"I guess the USAF wants you to take care of it?" Lola asked, already knowing what the answer is.
"Yeah. What do you think? I mean, I haven't flown a combat sortie since September 26, 2013. Heck, I haven't flown my F-22 since that day. I know I'll be returning to USAF duty soon, but, I want to know what you think." Bugs said.
"I think you should do it." Lola said.
"Really?" Bugs asked.
"Sure. Think about it, the Ribbon insignia on your squadron patch also represent Acemtropolis Univeristy, the Acmetropolis University Infinity. Why not the great Ribbon Fighter represent his college one more time?" Lola said with a grin.
"If it wasn't for you, the Ribbon would have never happened." Bugs said.
"Besides, you kicked Erusea's butt before. Imagine Free Erusea's reaction when they find out you're engaging them." Lola said.
"You're right. Thanks babe. You're the best." Bugs said.
"Promise me you'll come back." Lola said.
"I promise, I'll be back." Bugs said before kissing her.
Bugs heads back to Harrison.
"I'll do it." Bugs said.
"We better get going now." Harrison said.
With that, Bugs tells everyone he has something he needs to do and puts Daffy in charge. Afterwards, Bugs and Harrison starts heading to Shleisinger Air Force Base.
That's the end of chapter 1. Sorry for the very long wait, I've been busy with my other stories and been taking a break from the Shattered Skies Universe. Anyway, please review.
