24th Tactical Fighter Squadron

Sobri's POV

"To the Tanerian's flying wyvern. You're violating the airspace of Gehard FOB. Turn around immediately, or we will shoot you down," I said to the wyvern that was flying in front of my jet thanks to the magic transmitter that we attached to our fighter jet.

What a great Saturday morning, waking up to an emergency sortie that came from a FOB as far as four hundred kilos from the Flameguard FOB. Why the hell the Tanerian can't respect the ceasefire agreement. We almost bomb them with the dagger.

I took off from the Flameguard AFB with an X-02S with Lieutenant Torres as my CSO. Our loadout was purely for intercept and destroyed.

Torres: "Colonel, it looks like they are not going to stop anytime soon."

Sobri: "You're right, Fox 2."

An AIM-9 sidewinder flew from the Strike Wyvern and hit the wyvern. The wyvern remnants fell down to the ground, and we continued our patrol searching for another flying target.

AWACS Skykeeper: "AWACS here, five targets remeaning."

Sobri: "Roger that."

The missile warning on the jet started to beep.

"Missile, missile, missile, missile," The warning system said.

"Taking evasive maneuver," I said as I dived down to the lower altitude and pulled a bank; thus, the missile exploded on the ground beneath us.

We flew so low to the ground that we started to spot several merchants were in convoy on the road below us. I pulled up again and tried searching for the other five targets.

Sobri: "Skykeeper, can you see the target?"

AWACS Skykeeper: "Displaying the target on the HUD now."

Sobri: "Much appreciated."

Five squared appeared on my helmet with the information that is displaying "Wyvern." I chased every single one of them in my fighter jet. The fighter jet cut through the clouds to shot down every wyvern that I want.

Sobri: "Fox 3, Fox 3."

The wyvern exploded, and I continued to deploy the EML on the plane. One of them was smart enough to fly low, but that's not a big problem since I'm experienced enough to shoot down any flying object that Tanerian can afford.

Sobri: "Firing EML."

AWACS Skykeeper: "Be advised, they're bringing a flying battle mech. Looks like Lieutenant Colonel Balandin has arrived."

From beside me, a red fighter jet appeared, the pilot waved her hand at me.

Alina: "Ok, I'm here from the demon empire. How may I help you?"

Sobri: "Haha, hey there, colonel."

Alina: "Haha, as usual, then?"

Sobri: "Yup, as usual."

As usual, it means that we will use our regular codename, which is "Vampire." The callsign for me is Vampire 1 since I'm their XO and Vampire 2 for Lieutenant Colonel Balandin since she is my second in command.

Alina: "AWACS, moving to engage the target."

AWACS Skykeeper: "Copy that."

Alina's jet turned on its afterburner and flew away from me. I followed her from behind, and several radar signatures appeared on my screen. The blip flew faster than the wyvern that I chased after.

AWACS Skykeeper: "Vampire 1, you have bandit on your six."

Sobri: "I'm on it."

The mechs were more aggressive than the last time we encounter them. They're doing an evasive maneuver and shit like that, so we can't any longer destroy them from close range.

Sobri: "Vampire 1 Fox 3 Fox 3."

Two missiles launched from the weapon bay and hit the mech in the legs. Though, it's not causing enough damage to disable it. We need something more heavy-duty.

Alina: "Vampire 2 DRIVE DRIVE."

14 micro missiles that were equipped with the fusion warhead hit all of the mechs, thus wiping them out only in one attack. The HUD went into a clear mode, and I flipped my visor upwards.

Sobri: "You wipe them all out in single hit and not giving me any?"

Alina: "Hehe"

Sobri: "Colonel, you're a good pilot, but next time give me some, ok?"

Alina: "Roger that."

A forced transmission being transmitted to the frequency of my fighter jet. The transmission was not that clear, but it's clear enough for me to hear it and transcript it with the onboard computer of the jets.

Unidentified transmission: "To the fighter jets that are flying up there? Why are you here?"

Sobri: "This is Colonel Sobri of the 24th tactical fighter squadron. Who is this? This is a private military channel."

Unidentified transmission: "This is General Galliard, what are you doing here?"

Sobri: "General, there was an attack with a wyvern on our FOB, don't you know? That's why I'm here."

Wilson: "Oh, I see, continue your job."

Sobri: "Ok."

The X-02s did a pugachev cobra and turned on the afterburner. The jets flew faster than a speed of sound, leaving a large sonic boom for Wilson and his group.
