Everyone stood as the admiral walked in, "morning" he says while everyone stays standing "welcome to your special training detachment, be seated" he said and everyone sat down as he walked over to the little thingy with a microphone "i'm admiral bates" he introduces himself as everyone finishes sitting "not a commander" he clarifies, "your all top gun graduates, the elite, the best of the best. That was yesterday, the enemies new fifth generation fighter has levelled the playing field. Details are few but you can be sure that we no longer possess the technological advantage" he says while looking at everyone who is sitting there with straight faces. "success.... now more than ever, comes down to the man or woman in the box" he says and Hangman looks back at y/n which makes her place her hand on her head flipping him off "half of you will make the cut, one of you will be named mission leader. the other half will remain in reserve" he says and Hangman smiles and looks back at Rooster who looks at him.
"your instructor is a top gun graduate with real world experience in every mission aspect you will be expected to master. His exploits are legendary" the admiral says and you turn around to see no other than your farther "oh your kidding" you says quietly turning back to the front as the admiral continues to explain his title " he used to be one the finest pilots this program has ever produced" he says as Hangman turns to look at him and immediately looks down as if he is a kicked puppy. "and what ha has to teach you may very well be the difference between life and death" Admiral says and he walks past them all and up the front "i give you captain Mitchell" he says and Rooster has an over life look on his face, "call sign... Maverick" he says and lets him take over teaching them.
"morning" he says as he looks over everyone who most of them have their heads down in shame, Rooster looks at you in disbelief, you look at him of the corner of your eyes before looking back at the front trying to ignore him so he will leave her alone.
