Rikke and Adriana were driving around town. They hadn't had much time to see the place after arrival on the base. "Can the heater get any hotter?" Rikke asks as she sits in the passenger seat, pulling on her sweater collar. "Would you like me to roll down the windows?" Adriana asks jokingly, Rikke glaring at her sister briefly before laughing. "The heat coming out from this thing would make it look like we're smoking". Both sisters began laughing before the cell phone given to them began to ring. Rikke answered it, and after a few seconds of talking and hanging up the phone, she turned to Adriana with a serious look "We need to get back to base, attack coming this way." Adriana nodded and spun the car around, and throttled the vehicle back to base.

Once they arrived at base, they quickly got their flight suits on, and hopped onto a truck that quickly drove them to their aircraft. "Looks like we're a tad bit late" Rikke says as the two sisters run to Wraith. Adriana was too focused on getting to the aircraft to respond. Both climbed up into the cockpit, doing start-up checks as fast as they could once they were seated.

After take-off, they were flying in formation with the rest of the squad. What a mix of aircraft they had. After some time of flying, AWACS boomed over the squad channel, giving vectors and altitude of the bandits, shortly after, the squad lead given orders to each aircraft. The Fencer and their Aardvark were tasked with taking down the bombers. "Roger, we'll get those bombers down" Adriana then spoke to her sister "I'll get us to an altitude above where the bears are flying, should give those Phoenixes a better chance." Rikke nodded "Alright, just don't get us shot down." Adriana smirked as she pulled the aircraft about to get them the firing angle.

"Excalibur Eight, Engaging" said Adriana once they were in position, it didn't take long to lock the missile onto the target. "Fox-One, Fox-One!" Rikke reported as she fired a Phoenix at the Tu-95. The missile racing off towards its target and finding its mark on the upper-middle part of the fuselage, right between the wings. "Confirmed hit on the bandit, switching to guns" as if on cue, the weapons bay opened and the the gun popped down. But before they could go into a gun run, an eruption on the bear happened, causing a wing to break free of the craft. Both the craft and the freed wing feel out of the sky. "Excalibur Eight down bandit, nice job on your bandit as well Excalibur Four." Adriana said, remarking the kill the Fencer scored. "Two down, Eight to go, lets get busy"
