"Ah, see," Ruslan said, finally understanding the meaning. "So, we're gonna go straight toward there?"

Husein took off with his F-5, and soon after that he was disappointed that the so-called fighter wing flew blatantly out of formation, not resembling a fighter wing at all. However, he understood that everyone needed to arrive to Oured as soon as possible, and he too was on full afterburner toward Oured. He carefully watched his fuel gauge, worrying that aerial refueling might be needed on the return trip.

<< Peace Sparrow, this is AWACS Rim Light. I'll be replacing Oracle on this mission after they suffered heavy damage in the preceding mission. I'll try to keep you all up to date on what happens down there. Godspeed to all of you and for all of you who aren't Oseans, may you all protect this capital as if it were your own.>>

"Mold, roger," he said over the radio. When he heard that the enemies were Estovakians and Yuktobanians, the only thing he worried about was whether his enemies did believe the ideals they were fighting for. "What a start," he radioed to the rest of the fighter wing, trying not to clearly state what he thought about the Stovies and the Yukes.

<<Peace Sparrow, engage the bandits as soon as you are in range! You can't waste any time, it looks like the enemy is gaining the advantage. I can't work out their comms at the moment, so you'll have to make do for now!>>

Husein turned the afterburners off and tried not to fly his aircraft in any particular two-dimensional plane while looking for enemy aircrafts he could potentially lock onto. Finding a MiG-21 flying beneath him, he inverted his plane and made a turn to get behind the Fishbed. While trying to get a missile lock-on, he fired his guns at the MiG-21.

"Don't use colourful languages, Cody, I have no military background," Ruslan asks, not knowing what 'mothership', 'head', and 'this monster' refer to..

Will they still be referred to their old callsigns, now that they're in the same squadron?

Welcome Back to the Guild

The conversation was going increasingly away from what Nautilus would consider to be interesting, and thus he became increasingly unattached to the conversation. He slowly moved himself away from the area where the conversation was taking place, and looked around instead. He found Ebil sitting by a tree, apparently having the same concerns. Nautilus then walked toward Ebil and sat to his right.

"Hi, erm, what is your name again?" Nautilus tried to open the conversation but completely forgetting Ebil's name. "It seems we're being reduced to mere unimportant characters for the time being. Unless we regain their attention or start a side plot, I don't know what will happen to us," he said. The words 'side plot' referred to them going through the front entrance. He felt it was urgent for someone to go through the front gate, but nobody was taking action. Perhaps if he and Ebil started it, others would follow or at least notice them. If NPCs, or 'Guild natives' to be more politically correct and all-encompassing, disappear when they were not plot-important, who can guarantee that the roleplayers would not follow the same fate? We were indeed plot-important some moments ago, but not everyone could be important forever, right? his argument went inside his head.

Thoughts of a Fighter Pilot

As for the Gripen NG ad...

Gripen at 7:15 said Fourship Kingdom, today we provide air cover to the engineers. It's an important mission: they're building a bridge.

Husein landed his F-5 and walked to the briefing room on his own feet, technically succeeding the mission. knowing very well that it was sheer luck that saved him from any damage during this sortie, which was the first real engagement he was in. He knew he will need a lot of work to be capable in combat and not be one of those mooks who would only serve to add the kill tally of a war's aces should war ever happened, which may well be likely after that engagement.

At first, Husein found himself struggling hard to convince himself that he was to take a briefing from colonel Popov. The Estovakian nationality of the colonel, at least that was what he judged from the colonel's accent, was the cause of it; how could a fighter pilot be briefed by an officer from a country that had invaded his country in a time fresh within everyone's memory? The fact that all the A-Team members, who were originally competing against each other for a gold medal at the IPG, were transferred to a newly formed fighter wing by the same colonel added his dislike to the colonel. Orders were orders, however, and he understood the need for them to fight together after he was informed of a coordinated attack against the world's major nations.

As soon as the briefer changed, he finally managed to fully focus himself on the briefing instead of the briefer. It turned out that what they had just faced was a fighter a half century ahead of most of the aircrafts they were flying, and not the Berkuts as what he initially thought. While he knew that this was now escalating into actual warfare, he was still worried over whether he would survive this sortie. He was about to ask about which Flanker did the Osean officer refer to, since there were many planes referred to as Flanker, but before he could do so, the briefing finished and the new fighter wing was ordered to get to sortie as soon as possible.

Husein walked out of the briefing room and started doing standard pre-flight checks. Knowing that his aircraft had no problems and had been refueled and re-armed, he stepped back into the cockpit and said his prayers before starting the engines of his F-5. The fact that the F-5 was a rather slow fighter made him asking to himself whether he would made it to Oured in time and in formation. The fact that there were subsonic aircrafts around the squadron, namely the Skyhawk, made him to believe that he would arrive in formation, but adds to the doubt that the formation would arrive to Oured in time. He taxied the aircraft out and queued for taking off.

But who's Pavlov and who's Popov?
