Aces of darkness ch.3: Frozen free-for-all
A/N: I do not own MLP or Ace Combat only my OCs and any reviews will be nice
As Richard pulled over the chair that he had seen closest to him he put his feet on it and muttered
"Well part of me wants to say fuck the life I've chosen and turn in my wings and try to turn my fucking life around or go on a crime spree, fuck I don't know" and Dash pulled the chair out from under his boots and said smiling
"Piss off I need a chair and this is the closest thing to the chow line" as Richard shot her a glare. Seeing that Dash just opened the bottle of booze and Richard nodded singing
"Why do I keep holding on why do I keep staring down the barrel of a loaded gun, I won't point the finger but I'll take the blame I shoulda seen this coming from a million miles away" and as he sipped on the bottle Spitfire yelled in a tone that pissed him off
"As your commanding officer I demand you come with me" and Richard just shrugged and started to go for a walk with spitfire who seeing an ace fighter pilot about to cry instantly softened her tone saying
"Look I didn't mean to yell but you seem to be a little different right now so tell me what it is please" and Richard muttered
"Don't worry about it, it's none of your concern I want to become the lord of the round table and I wish I was dead" and as he ran to jump into his F15 and revved the engines to take off Dash jumped into her F5 and muttered seeing her flight lead crying as he pulled his visor down
"I really hope he is okay because I really care about him so I pray to god his head is on straight" and the two started to take off over the frozen terrain Richard activated the dead comms and sang to dash
"If heaven wasn't so far away Id pack up the kids and go for the day introduce them to their grandpa watch em laugh at the way he talks" and spitfire, who had been listening in asked the question, as she and Lightning dust took off, that got Richard blushing and Dash laughing
"Do you have any kids' lieutenant and if so what are their names?" and Dash just laughed at Richard's silence and she then went silent when he said
"I want to have kids someday because I was told I am the only kid in my family so why not carry on my blood line" and spitfire whistled shocked that the boy who was an only child would volunteer for suicide missions or even enlist in the first place then said,
"Well damn boy you think that you could actually try and find love and not risk your life for whatever reason" and all Richard would say reinforcing to dash that he was unique
"Yeah but then I wouldn't be known as a skilled fighter and get my family well known besides I promised someone I would do my best" and he glanced at a picture of him and lightning dust with spitfire in the background and he clicked on and asked stunning the leader
"I wonder if the others remember the days I was a newbie having to try and fit in and make a new beginning for myself and I still do" and dust heard and said stunned that neither her nor spitfire understood or recognized who it was
"Well bro I'm glad you came back after that night and letting you know your former flame is now the leader of the band and I hope you don't flirt to much" and Spitfire whispered
"Oh god I can't believe you are back here now let's keep on target and we will talk later" and Dash whispered to herself
"Boy I like you but who are you honestly" and he saw the missile in the air as he had assigned himself a CAP flight and he yelled
"MOVE IT NOW I WILL HOLD THEM OFF AND I WONDER WHY THE FUCK THEY ARE HERE!" and he snapped the stick rolling the fighter in a sharp pitchback followed by a split S to break the missiles track and starting to black out as he was throwing 8Gs on both him and the air frame he struggled into a high G barrel roll causing the attacker to start to overshoot and thusly try a spiral to kill off the forward momentum and as Richard felt the tracers of the Mirage's 30mm and the unknown to the point, MIG 21s 23mm cannon he quickly realized he was out of ideas. Snapping into a dive at his peak he saw two fighters swing and as he saw that Dash yelled
"We are coming in to help so if we slide in front do not shoot ok boy?" and Spitfire yelled as lightning dust picked up the CAP flight
"The bogies are in sight and I have fox 2 lock and guns sight on another" and the two pulled a defensive split, or in their point an offensive split, and Richard snapped up, having unloaded from 10Gs to another 5Gs, as the MiGs partner, a MIG 29 tried to follow and slammed into the ground in a ball of fire. Dash yelled seeing that
"One down and boy I see you are one kill shy of being an ace as am I" and the one on Richard's tail exploded as Spitfires sidewinder slammed into the tail of the mirage sending her spiraling to the ground and he saw the 21 dive and he screamed
"The bogie is making a run for the deck and that son of a bitch is mine" and he fired a blast of 30mm causing him to angle into spitfires guns and the man crumpled under two licks of flame. As he landed running on fumes he muttered
"Well that was fun and I wonder if I am one kill away or made ace?" and Spitfire answered yelling
"Yo ace meet me in the chow hall because we have some catching up to do" and he wondered if love was back in his future as he grabbed his pack looking back over the icy fields near his home that still rang with smoke on a cold winter morning making him wish he had a warming drink.
