Veteran turned commander

Chapter 11

I climb my way out of my jet, and set my feet down on the deck, stretching my legs. Atago quietly walks up to me. "Oh it's you." I roll my eyes, walking along, she stops me short. "Is there something you need to tell me~?" She grins. "Nope." I rip my arm away from her. "Alright guys, I need to go clear my head a bit, then we can plan, meanwhile. Show yourself around." I look around, they just nod. I sigh.

I find myself at an empty target range just off the base, I sit down on a crumbled barrier, and look up at the sky. "Why can't I tell her." I mumble under my breath. "Tell who, what?" Atago walks up behind me. 

"Nothing." I sigh. "Hehe~ It's not nothing. Big sister can feel it~." She sits next to me. "Is there something you need to tell me~?" She sings in my ear. "Actually yes." I look over at her, with slightly tired eyes. "Well tell me~ I'm listening~." She giggles. I take a deep breath.

"How would you feel about going to that celebration together..." I ask her, she lights up a bit. "Hehe~ You would like to date big sister~? What should I do~?" She leans in on me. I back up. "Don't take this too far." I look in her eyes. "Hehe~ Sure~ Big Sister won't mind going with you~." She inches closer to my face. "Um, hold that thought." I say, leaning back. "No, Big Sister wont~." She pulls me closer to her. She squeezes me. "I know you have a lot of work to do~ Now go on~." She lets go a minute or so later, I hug her. "Alright." I stand up.

I find the guys after an hour or so. "Lets plan this." I say. "You seem cheerful." Jack says. "Yea, because she didn't reject me." I tell them. "So, you got her...?" Evan asks. "Yes. I did." I say, sitting down. "Nice man." Michael sits next to me.

"Ok boys, how should we plan this...?" I lean forward on the table. "Ok, we have enough supply done up for three runs, we coordinate our weapon resupply at this base here, so if we run low we can come here, refuel, resupply, and come back." I say, drawing on a map. "We have enough fuel to get there if we fly high, and at cruising speed, leaving enough fuel for a full low pass, and a turn around to come back." I say, drawing a line between the bases. "Ok, and the type of weaponry?" Jack asks. "Yea, what about that." Michael shrugs. "Ok, so. We have how many faeb?" I ask. "Um, lets see." Evan counts to himself. "We have a total of thirty-two." He nods. "Good, get them over here, so we can load them up." I tell him, "Also bring some AIM-9X Sidewinder missiles for air to air, but doubt they will have planes out and about at the time we are going to be hitting them." I say. "So at, one fifteen we will take off, and hit them the first time, at one fifty." I say. "Morning?" They ask. "Yes." I put the cap on the sharpie I'm using.

"Alright, see you in a few hours boy-." I'm cut off by Jack. "I think your girlfriend would like a word with you." He grins, I feel a tap on my shoulder. "Yea?" I turn around, leaning against the table. "Mind if Big Sister tags along~?" She gently sways back and forth waiting for an answer. "Of course." I give her a grin. "My my, where did the man that hated me go?" She gently grabs my chin, and points my head down so my eyes meet hers. "Your eyes are now full of love and lust for Big Sister~ Oh how cute~." She baby talks a bit. I hug her slightly. "Hey Charles, we're going to get a drink. Want to come?" Jack asks. "Yea." I look up, Atago points my head down again. "Go on~ Big Sister isn't going anywhere~." She softly says with a warm smile, I go with them.
