By now most ponies that were in the service were deployed close to the front. Dash and her friends were no exceptions. Dash and Crow had just been transfered to the new 332nd Fighter Group, 99th Fighter Squadren in northern Equestria to combat the griffins. The griffins main target though was to bomb Canterlot. This lead Princess' Celestia and Luna to form a new branch of the Royal Guards, the Royal Air Force. They were conceved specificly to protect Canterlot, although they were ocasionally sent to give back-up to the regular Equestrian Army Air Force. Back at the base the RAF pilots got a special treat, brand new Spitfire MK.II fighters to replace their old Hurricane MK.I's. This enfuriated Rainbow Dash. She said they had been stuck with old P-40's while the Royal Gaurds got brand new fighters. "It's totaly unfair!" she yelled. "Dash just calm down." said Crow. "You'r getting worked up over nothing. We'll get new planes, give it time. Maybe they'll give us some of those new P-51A's that just rolled out of the factory last week." "Maybe." mumbled dash, still fumeing over the Spitfire's. "Come on, lets go get some food in town. I'm starving." said Crow. "Ok."said dash and they walk out of their room towards town.

A rather heavy set griffin strode towards the office of the dictaitor of the Griffin Kingdom. In his white dress jacket, knee high boots, and officers cap the griffon looked rather profesional. When he entered the office of the dictaitor he clicked his heels together, snaped to attention, saluted, and stated "Good morning Mein Fuhrer." "Have a seat Goering," the Fuhrer said. The griffin sat and when he did his medals that covered his chest jingled and klinked together. "Goering why do you wear those medals?" the Fuhrer asked. "I am proud of them Mein Fuhrer."stated Goering. There was a knock at the door. "Come in." the Fuhrer said. A griffin army private steped in and saluted then began to speek. "Mein Fuhrer, Dokter Goebbels wishes to speek with you." "Thank you private. Dismised." stated the Fuhrer. "Mein Fuhrer, i have an operation that will bring Equestria to its knee's." blurted Goering. "Goering i dont have time to talk about this." said the Fuhrer as he got up from his chair. "Just use the original plan." "Of cource Mein Fuhrer." and Goering left it at that.

"Hey Dash guess what?!" yelled Crow as he brurst through their door. "What?" asked Dash. "They're making a better version of theP-51A. And we're first on the list of groups that get them!" shouted Crow excitedly. "Really?!" Dash asked excitedly. "Yea. here's the list." said Crow as he gave it to Rainbow Dash. "Holy Crap!" Dash shouted. Rainbow Dash got so excited she grabbed Crow and kissed him. Then realizing what she did they both turned red. "Sorry. I got a little to excited." Dash said. "It's ok" said Crow. "Your a good kisser." He said as he left the room to tell the rest of the squadren.

The base was buzzing with activity as the new P-51B's were landing at the base. "See Dash. I told you, you just have to wait." said Crow as they lay in the grass while watching the new fighters land. "Would have been nice to have these before the RAF pilots left so i could rub it in their faces." said Dash. "Oh well." said Crow. "Could be worse. We could be training newbees at the old airfield" "I guess." murmered Dash. "Did the Colonel say if they're painting the aircraft?"asked Dash. "Not yet. But I did hear your getting promoted." said Crow. "Really?" asked Rainbow Dash. "Yea. Think they said Lieutenant Colonel or something like that." Crow said as a fighter flew overhead.

Rainbow Dash now had silver oak leafs on her uniform. She was now the second highest ranking pony on the base. Even though she could have, Dash didnt sleep in the commanders hut. She insted stayed in her bunk above Crow. Dash was beginning to fall in love with Crow, though she wouldn't admit it.
