    You're flying nine-thousand feet over a raging naval battle topped by a swirling furball of a dogfight, a hundred miles from land, and you're leaking fuel copiously.

    "Hump day," you mutter.

    "Black Fighters, identify yourself!" a voice demands on the radio.

    "SIR, WE ARE SCARY BLACK MARTIAN BANDITS SIR!"

    Silence.

    "Read a recognition book, motherfucker," Frank snarls. "Twin-boomed aircraft the size of a house and you can't ID us? Shit."

    "Marine Squadron 221," the other pilot radios back, a bit miffed. "Who the hell are you?"

    "442nd Night Fighter Squadron," Luke returns. "You bringing any company?"

    "We're the Saragtoga's wing. Lexington is launching as we speak; another ten minutes, though, less if they don't grab altitude."

    "I take it the Saratoga is close, then?" you ask. "She ready to start recovery operations?"

    "I guess, why?"

    "This Widow isn't getting home. I've got a fuel leak."

    There's total silence on the radio.

    "... steer Two-Niner-Three, raise the Saratoga on Seven-Nine-Zero. And good luck."

    You check your gauges again. The Widow has multiple fuel tanks, and only one is holed. You could still fight and make the carrier, if you want.

    Or you could push your luck too far and catch a cannon shell.

    Carrier decks are going to be empty if they are done launching already. And they probably have crash nets. Or are you suggesting all three of us parachute into the sea.

    Brits armored theirs from the get-go.

    But Lady Lex and Sara's decks were never armored IOTL (in fact, I don't think any American carriers were during the war) so we wouldn't be dealing with armored decks even if there had been kamis.

    For a second, you're tempted to stay in the fight until you've expended your ammunition - and were you alone, you might.

    But a mostly-empty tank still contains fumes, and those light up really, really well when they're hit by incendiaries. You're flying a bomb with a lit fuse, at this point. And you might well need fuel for go-arounds.


    Sean sets the radio, and you call.


    "Ghostrider, P-61 Black Widow, calling Saragota, do you copy?"

    Some static. "Saratoga tower, we hear you."

    "Saratoga, I've got a fuel leak and I'm ten minutes from your deck. Requesting permission to land."

    You wait.

    You wait some more.

    "Ghostrider, please repeat?"

    "Saratoga, I'm out of fuel, I've got three men here and I need a runway. You're it."

    "Buddy, there's no way in hell-"

    "She stalls at sixty MPH with the flaps down buddy. You get the crash net out and I'll worry about the landing, okay?"

    The exchange continues like that for a few minutes, until you finally convince the Saratoga that you've not many options. The crash nets are rolled out, and ten minutes later, you're lining up on the carrier. Nearby, the Lexington is still launching fighters.

    "Are we fucked?" Ian asks.

    "Yeah," Sean says. "Nice plane and all but it's just a prototype. They still make them, you know."

    "I don't have the fuel to climb for a bail-out," you say tersely. "You want to ditch?"

    THAT shuts 'em up. Nobody bothers ditching when you've got a perfectly good pistol at hand.

    Exactly. Most people don't know but pilots landed fucked up planes and fucked up planes when landing on carriers ALL THE TIME during WW2. Plane cracked in half? No problem, give the pilot a stiff drink. Then get 10 guys together to shove it over the side and make room for the next plane.

    As long as we don't set the deck on fire or crash into the bridge, we are not endangering the carrier any more than a navy plane. And as anon pointed out, fire needs fuel. We already used our rockets too, so no problem there.

    Getting into the air will be fun, but we have WEP.

    You drop the flaps all the way and pull back on the throttles. The Saratoga is turned into the wind for recovery operations, and her deck is clear. Between her huge wings, the powerful engines and the flaps, the Widow has a surprisingly low stall speed for such a big plane.

    "Call the ball," a voice says into your radio.

    "What ball?" you snap irritably.

    "... okay. Just, uh, do what I say, okay?"

    "Right," you say tersely.

    "Up. Up. Left.... a little more... add power. Add power." You finesse the controls, trying to match the voice. You hit a switch and drop your landing gear, forcing you to add some power to counteract the drag - and slow even further.

    "Up... up... add power! Power!" the man shouts, but you ignore him. He doesn't know the Widow like you do; she's got all the power she needs. The tricycle landing gear means you don't have to point your nose at the sky to land, so your visibility of the carrier is better, but you'll still be blind in those last few, crucial seconds.

    "UP UP UP UP!" the man is screaming, and you goose the throttles, flicking the joke back a little. The Widow pops up eagerly, and you slam back on the throttles, knowing you've just grabbed more altitude then you probably needed."

    "-UT CUT CUT CUT CUT-" the man is screaming into your headphones, wisely this time. You shove the nose down harshly, for a three-point landing, and you feel the Widow SLAM into the carrier deck as she stalls out about five feet above it.

    There's a horrible sound as the nose of the Widow smashes through the crash-net - and another, and another - and you arc your back as you shove your feet on the brakes, pressing your back against the seat to literally stand on the damn things with all your might.

    "OH SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII-"

    Brakes squealing, people bleating, your mouth screaming, the Widow comes to a shuddering, uncertain halt.

    You collapse in your seat, and stare at the water in front of you for a minute. You can't see any ship.

    Kicking open your floor hatch, you look down at the deck, and the edge of the deck about fifteen feet away. A sailor is already ramming a chock underneath the nose-wheel.

    You unfold the ladder and shiver your way down it, then quake your way across the deck in a way that looks casual and hardboiled from a distance; say, the island, where all the cameras probably are.

    "Bit of a near thing, eh chaps?" you say nonchalantly to the crew running to drag your Widow away from the edge of the deck.

    You and your crew are quickly ushered into the Ready Room as the deck hands haul your big fighter over to a parking spot by the island, chocking and lashing it down with gusto until it's firmly secured - it certainly won't fit on the aircraft elevators.

    You, Sean, and Ian are all sitting around stuffing your faces with ice cream when a harried-looking man with a clipboard enters the room. You, Sean and Ian automatically stand and salute - he's either a flag-rank officer or a supply sergeant, and you respect the former by protocol and the latter through experience and pure mercenary instinct.

    "At ease, Gentlemen. I'm the XO." He consults his clipboard. "You boys from the 501st?"

    You all nod.

    He sighs. "We've got some brass burning up the airwaves right now, wanting you."

    "Oh, lord," you say, rubbing your head. "We told her where we were going, and everything."

    "What? No," the XO says. "They NEED you."

    "Don't they all," Ian says softly, grinning a little. Sure, it's a big bad officer and all, but he's not in your chain of command and you three just pulled off one hell of a day's work.

    The XO stares at you. "You haven't heard."

    All three of you exchange a Bad Look, and the ice cream sours in your stomach.

    "What's going on?"

    "The Martians are invading England."

    North Africa


    This shit sucked. Lt. James Anders adjusted his cap to keep the sun out of his eyes as he lay in his tent. The 48th was at a little less than 50% combat effectiveness, with eight of their original sixteen either dead or grounded. This meant that the brass weren’t giving them forward patrols while they waited for new pilots and planes.

    Problem was, the Indianapolis had gone missing somewhere in the Med a few days before, along with the supply convoy that was bringing them the parts to get their two inoperable Lightnings back in the air. With a bit of guilt, James remember the better-than-three thousand sailors that had disappeared with the fleet.

    “Fuck…“ Anders swore under his breath. He’d talked with Bristol the night before; without those supplies, they were probably going to decommission the 48th and roll her remaining pilots and planes into other squadrons. Sure, he’d probably be flying again, but it wouldn’t be the same without Flip, and Silverman and McHale, not to mention it was a crapshoot as to whether any other commander in the Army Air Corps would put up with the shit he’d pulled under Bristol.

    And there was nothing a commander loved more than breaking a new hotshot pilot under them.

    Look on the bright side. Maybe the Martians will get a few lucky hits on the Air Ministry and thus destroy the single worst enemy the British war effort faced (namely, the Air Ministry).

    Well, it would be lucky for us anyway.

    “Anders!”

    “Cap’n!”

    “Get your pants on and get over to my office. We’ve got orders.”

    “Sir!” James rolled off the cot and got himself into a semi-presentable condition. Five minutes later he dragged himself back into Bristol’s shack/office. “So, where are they sending me?” He said, all hope drained from his voice.

    “Well, I’ve got good news and I’ve got news that you’re probably going to want to sit down for.” James took the offered seat. “Good news is they’re not breaking up the 48th.”

    “They scrounge up some Lightnings out of England or something?” James was confused now. Even if that were the case, it’d be hell flying them all the way out here for the benefit of one squadron.

    “Nope.”

    “Some other poor squadron get mauled worse than we did?”

    Bristol pushed the Manila envelope across the table, flipping it open before he leaned back.

    “What in the holy fuck…” He read and reread the orders. “This can’t be right…” He read them a third time for good measure. They were being assigned to Forward Airbase 034-512 Alexandria. AKA: Sparkle Fortress.

    I like how they're invading after we've redeployed what seems like half our forces here.

    This would be like Germany launching operation sea lion the day before D-Day.

    We're in '43 or '44, damn well better at least be Hellcats by this point.

    Or something Japanese. One of the designs that would have been better if they'd had enough of an engine to add shit like decent armor, better weapons and luxuries like self-sealing fuel tanks and radios.

    “Have the brass completely lost their shit?” Anders by now had completely lost his polite, talking-with-CO tone. “Hell, remember that Fortress crew that got lost and ran out of fuel a few months ago? When they tried to make an emergency landing there. They had men aboard so they made them ditch. Threatened to blow their asses out of the sky on approach.” Aside from the support crew and military brass, male servicemen were barred from Witch bases. “Do the Witches know?”

    Bristol shrugged. “I am as confused and unaware as you are. I wasted a perfectly good cup of coffee when I read it,” He nodded to a splotch of brown on the shack’s rug. “Was all I could do to keep from spitting it all over the report.”

    James kept reading for the report, looking for the joke, the punchline that’d show that Bristol or someone was screwing with them. There was none. “When do we head over?”

    “Got a crew breaking down Silverman and Mancini’s Lightnings for transport now.” He took the orders back and closed them. “I want you to get the pilots who have planes packed and in the air. I’ll take Silverman and Mancini with their planes on the ground.” Bristol got that particular look on his face when he was serious about something. “For the love of God, when you get there control yourselves, at least until I get there and we figure out what’s happening. As far as I know we’re the first and only male pilots operating out of a Sparkle base. I don’t want to get there tonight and find out they’ve already killed your asses for going on a panty raid or trying to sneak into their showers or something…”

    “…You really think they have group showers? Kidding! Kidding!” James waved a surrender before Bristol could chuck the stapler at his head.

    I'll at it to the todo list:

    - Let someone know about that armoury situation.
    - Test effectiveness of emotional chaff by thinking the dirtiest thoughts we possibly can while Minna is giving a briefing in front of the Witches.
    - Paint dat recursive nose art
    - Get some red paint and put an hourglass on the turret of the widow
    - Bath? Bath
    - Produce and print a sexy calendar for the witches.

    DONE/MISSED:
    - PANTS
    - Break up the fight.
    - Figure out a way to troll Minna by having the entire base gang up on her.
    - Give our leg time to heal before we fly the ELINT mission. (ie tommorow)
