The Skies Above

It's a normal day in the Persian Gulf, and aboard the U.S.S. Dwight D. Eisenhower, aircraft were launched and recovered almost around the clock. A pilot and WSO, Lieutenant Commander Benjamin "Pip" Bliss and Lieutenant Markus "Sydney" Lobe from VFA-32, or "Flying Swordsman", was being launched for a normal strike mission. It was typical until they got their feet dry, and a blinding light took over the canopy of their F/A-18F Super Hornet. When it died down, it revealed a lush rainforest below, not an arid desert.

Now MIA, presumed KIA, they're somewhere they don't belong, with animals that seem human.

Somewhere unknown.
