Blue Angel Down

Blue fighter jets with yellow lines and bolts on them sat at the ready as the sun rose across the horizon, men wearing brightly coloured vests and helmets rush from plane to plane, prepping them for they're exercises. A large truck pulled up with a canvas top over the back of it, the men rushed to it and began carrying machine guns to the planes, trolleys loaded with white and red missiles were pushed from plane to plane , each one receiving 10 missiles and 2 machine guns.

James Petty zipped up the front of his blue flight suit, and grabbed his helmet from the top of his locker,it as well was painted blue with yellow lines and bolts on it, just like they're planes, except for the insignia and call name hawkeye scribbled onto the sides and front, he had brown hair which was neatly combed, he set the helmet down on the bench and turned towards the new guy...

Billy had just been welcomed into the blue angels, he was an excellent pilot, even if he was only 19, he was the best out of his squadron, he had only served 2 tours since he enlisted out of high school, he was around 5 1/2 feet tall, and skinny, he had very light red hair... it was hard to tell...he noticed he was being watched by James, he tilted his head to talk to James, dragging his dog tags with him.

"What do you want hawkeye..." Billy said

"It's what you want" James replied quickly

"What the hell is that spose to mean?"

"It's what you want.... What do you want billy..."

"..."

"You can tell me..."

"Hawkeye I swear to god if your drunk again I'm getting the MP to haul your ass outta here"

"Not this time, although I could go for a drink about now..."

"Do you always torchere all your new recruits?"

"Yep that's how we break em in..."

"That would explain why you've gone through 10 in the last 3 months..."

"Nah you guys just don't understand simple conversation... Don't be so alien... Shhesh your like all these kids with eye phones, just zone out no simple conversation..."

Billy rolled his eyes, hawkeye James was going to rant yet again about kids these days... Billy had only been here for 2 weeks and he already disliked hawkeye like everyone else on the base...

Billy zipped up his flight suit and grabbed his helmet, just like hawkeyes except... The call name, d-caf, billy was known for his love of de cafs, he was mocked for it by hawkeye...

Billy stepped out of the locker rooms and onto the air strip, they hadn't fully prepped the planes yet but they were very close, billy was soon met by Sarah Palmer, the commanding officer of the team, she had black hair, she was taller then him by about half an inch, he still found her intimidating though... Her call name was Cindy, she had received it on her very first day of training when she dumped her fuel all over the air strip and on air crew... Hawkeye never let her live this down which is why he's still a corporal...

"Hawkeye give you any trouble today billy?"

"Not really, I'm getting to that point where all the noise I hear from him becomes static chatter..."

Sarah laughed, most officers never laughed around lower ranks... Ruins they're reputation, except most everybody fears Sarah, she's been known to bite off a few heads...

"Let's get to our planes looks like flight crews are done..."

"Why are they armed?"

"Today's training exercise is air combat, we're against all the other teams on base..."

"I see" billy said, quickly walking towards his jet...

Billy was secure into his jet, they were waiting for hawkeye... As usual... After several more minutes of this Sarah ordered air control to send someone to tare him out of the lockers....

5 minutes later they find him... He was in the bar...

"Cindy, should we get someone to uh take hawkeyes place he's kinda drunk..." Billy said

"Bartender made sure he only had 2..." Sarah said over the coms between the planes

"THAT LIAR.... He said I drank 10..." Hawkeye said, a slight bit of sadness in his voice

"We'll if you throw up your the one who put your life at risk..." Sarah replied getting annoyed by hawkeye

"Cut the chatter and get into position infinity" said the control tower operator Dave

The planes rolled into position and roared down the run way, one after another, until they're all airborne...

"Best we get away from base fast infinity these guys like to shoot you down while still in this air space..." Sarah suggested

"Roger" billy said flipping some switches

"Charlie Oscar" hawkeye shouted... A large tone of drunkness in his voice

The planes soared over the wood lands, spanning for miles on end, they preformed some air acrobatics while in wait for some sucker to walk into they're trap....

"Boogie at your six hawkeye" d-caf said over the radio

James peeled off from the formation and went after the enemy blue angel, he came up behind the other jet and let out bursts from the twin machine guns, paintballs flew through the air towards this other plane pelting it in colours...

"This is Roland George of chrome team... Confirmed kill hawkeye, nice shooting" a voice said over the radio

The other plane turned and shot off towards the run way

"I thought I saw them loading in real bullets?" Billy questioned over the radio

"Don't get your self Wrong kid, we've got live ammo onboard, the government just doesn't like us to damage they're nice shiny planes..." Hawkeye replied

They soared off further into the forest, until...

Bang bang bang

"Jesus, I've been hit guys!!" Sarah said over the radio

"By whom?"

"I don't know, it sounds like live ammo so someone's  to bring me down--"

Several more loud shots let loose, these were then followed by more shots... From other guns..

Sparks and crackles began to come from Sarah's console, then a thick smoke filled the air

"Mayday mayday" she shouted over the radio as her wing caught fire

Hawkeyes plane was the next to get hit severely the bullet puncturing the underbelly and fuel tank of the plane... Flames erupted from the blue machine, d cafs came next, his engine was shot clean through, a loud explosion sounded the end of his flying session...

"We're going to have to put them down in the trees..." Sarah said her plane ready to burst to pieces any second

"That's a dandy idea darling but where" James replied the flames beginning to lick the sides of his glass canopy

"There, theres a clearing in trees, best option we got.."

Sarah's plane began to violently shake , it began a downward spiral and its rapid decent was slowed by Sarah's training,

Hawkeye and d caf soon followed, they were all plummeting to the ground at fast rates, in unison...

"We had a good run..." Hawkeye said 100 feet above the earth....

They're life's flashed before they're lives... Everything they hadn't accomplished in it yet and everything they had... The nose of Sarah's plane smashed into the ground first but her whole plane disappeared, billy noticed this before his plane hit the ground... He blacked out apon contact...

The planes were sent flying through a spinning whorl of different colours and came through the other end landing perfectly flat on the ground, all damage from before gone... Magically....

Sarah woke up, her head was pounding her mind was in a daze, she took of her homey and popped open the canopy above her... Something was wrong... Defiantly wrong... She didn't have hands any more... She had hooves? Her skin was replaced by khaki coloured fur she still had her brown hair... Then she looked at her face...

S-s-she was a horse!!?!!?!?????!!??!

She screamed loudly and fainted
