Azur Lane: Bridge Between Worlds

Mark Fleetwood or as he was referred to by everyone "Sparky", was a rural Nevadan who lived with his aunt and uncle due to an unfortunate accident involving his parents. The only thing Sparky had from his parents was a blue, crystal-like, cube about the size of a dice that was with with them when they were found. Mark carried it in his pocket at all times like a good-luck charm . Sparky usually spent most of his days laying on a hill that overlooked the nearby Fallon Naval Air Station. He could watch the planes take off and land all day. It captured his sense of wonder, and he knew that one day he wanted to be a pilot. In December of 1941 The Japanese Empire Attacked Pearl Harbor resulting in 2,403 deaths on the U.S. side. As soon as Sparky heard the news he had his uncle drive him to the nearest Naval recruitment center and he enlisted in the naval flight academy. After his training was complete he was assigned to the USS Hornet which he treated as a second home. The Admiralty saw it fit for Sparky to pilot a F4F Wildcat fighter aircraft thanks to his outstanding control over the planes he flew which would be especially valuable in a dogfight. Sparky made it aboard the Hornet just in time to participate in the Battle Of Midway where he proved his worth as a pilot after shooting down three Japanese Aichi D3A Dive-bombers as they were preparing to drop their bomb loads on the Hornet. After the Battle Of Midway Sparky felt a connection to Hornet and vowed to himself that he would protect her at any cost.
