SONIC!!! GET YOUR ASS IN HERE NOW!!! Sonic entered the room of the CO followed closely by axel.

"Leave us lieutenant" said the CO waving his hand at axel.

Axel saluted his commander and about faced and left the room. Sonic now felt alone, there was no one to back him up now that Axel had left.

"Commander, you wanna tell me just what the hell you were thinking up there? Do you honestly believe you own that plane? You think you can just do whatever you feel is right up there and we'll all be ok with it?" Sonic stood at attention, "Sir, you requested me to show the higher ups the very best performance I could muster, that wouldn't have been possible if I didn't give it everything I have in me"

"I've heard enough commander" said the CO cutting off Sonic, "because of your actions today the higher ups no longer feel safe with you piloting the aircraft, they say your too reckless and arrogant"

"But sir you know that's not true, I'm all business when I enter that cockpit"

"WELL YOU HAVE A PRETTY POOR WAY OF SHOWING THAT!" screamed the CO as he raised from his chair.

"We breed the best pilots this world has ever seen, but it makes little to no difference if they show no restrain. It's that level of understanding of one's self that seperates the boys from the men, you need to be able to look at yourself and admit that you still have more to learn."

The CO sighed and sat down in his chair, there was an uncomfortable silence that followed, but Sonic already knew what was going to happen next.

" I'm going to have to ask you to hand in your wings and you will be relived of your duty and this command in due time, I'm sorry commander but your too much of a loose cannon to be controlled and the higher ups think that this is for the best. Luckely I was able to pursuade them to let this command stay so that we can one day soon redeem ourselves.

" Sonic was fiding it hard to come up with an appropriate response, "How could-"

The CO cut sonic off again with his hand. "Please commander, this is hard for me as well"

Sonic couldn't take it anymore, "Yeah it sure looks that way." protested Sonic.

"Careful commander." Warned the CO, "I had to pull a lot of strings just to make sure you were able to be discharged honorably.

Sonic gritted his teeth, he reached for the wings pinned to his chest and removed it from his uniform, and he placed them on the CO's desk. The CO wasn't even able to look at Sonic.  "Dismissed"

Sonic braced himself, saluted and turned to exit the room. Axel didn't need to ask Sonic anything after he left the room, the look on his friend's face and the blank spot on his chest told him exactly what had just transpired. Axel looked into the CO's office and sighed, as Sonic passed Axel, all his friend could do was follow Sonic and try to find a way to cheer him up.

Back in the realm of the void Lord Sonvil's servant approached his master rather happily.

"You better have some good news for me." said Sonvil in a low toned voice.

After all of his failures Sonvil had just about reached his limit, and to see his lowly servant's smile almost made his sick.

"Yes indeed master" spoke the servant, "Your spies have just reported in, and I think you'll find their findings rather interesting."
