River & Lightning

Lightning looked at her helmet, "It's cool isn't it." River said. Lightning smiled a bit at her older sister. "It feels surreal, I can't believe I am flying with my Older sister and my callsign." Lighting said.

"Lightning fits you little sis." River said as her and Lightning approached the plane that Maverick had ready for them. "Maverick is insane." Lightning said. "Tell me something I didn't know." River said as they climbed into the Jet and put on their helmets.

Lightning eyes widen at the things in front of her. "Don't worry little sis, you will learn all about this when you attend Top Gun." River said as she got everything ready to go. "I think I'll manage, I have read up on this stuff." Lightning said. "You... read? Shocker." River said and Lightning glared at her.

"Your class and most importantly the admirals will notice your gone." Lightning said. "I know, but we have to do this, do this for Maverick, do this for them." River said. "Geez and to think you took a tip from one of the admirals, you or Maverick are going to piss him off." Lightning said.

"Warlock no, but Cyclone... most likely and why do you keep bringing that up." River said. "BECAUSE HE SUGGESTED YOU TO LOCK ME OUT OF THE HOUSE, AND YOU LISTENED!" Lightning exclaimed. "Quiet down." River spatted.

"Captain Mitchell is no longer your instructor and as of today there are new mission parameters. Time to target is now Four minutes. You'll be entering the valley level at reduced speed, not to exceed 420 knots." Cyclone said to everyone. Everyone looked at each other. Rooster noticed that River was missing.

"Sir, won't we be giving their planes time to intercept." Bob asked. "Well lieutenant you have a fighting chance against enemy aircraft. What are the odds of surviving a head on collusion with a mountain. You'll be attacking the target from a higher altitude level with a north wall. It's gonna be little harder to keep your laser on target but you will avoid the high g climb out." Cyclone said. "Out here sitting ducks for the enemy's missiles." Fanboy said.

An F-18 appeared on the screen which caught everyone's attention. "Who the hell is that?" Cyclone questioned.

"River and Lightning to range control, entering point alpha, confirm green range." River said on the radio. Everyone's eyes widen. "Who the hell is Lightning?" Coyote questioned.

"Uh River and Lightning, range control, uh green range is confirmed... I don't see an event scheduled for the both of you." River smiled a bit. "Well, we are going anyways." River said. "Nice." Phoenix muttered. "Lightning, can you confirm who you are?" The person asked. "Harper Summers." She said. "HARPER!" Everyone exclaimed. "Holy shit." Rooster said as everyone eyes widen. "Her little sister is her backseater." Bob said.

"Setting time to target, Two minutes and fifteen seconds." River called out. "2:15 that's impossible." Payback said. "This is River we are talking about here, she'll make it possible." Phoenix said. Hangman was a little on edge.

"File attack point, River and Lightning Inbound." River said. "You okay little sis?" River asked. "Yeah, I can't believe I am actually flying with my older sister, I know I have said this already but still ... feels surreal." Lightning said, River smiled. "Me too little sis, me too, Let's do this!" River called out as she pulled the plane down

The time started.

They all watched them go through the course. "How you doing back there little sis." River asked. "I am doing just peachy, geez." Lightning said. "Get use to it, you'll be doing this at Top Gun." River said. "If I will be allowed." Lightning said. "They'll be crazy if they don't" River said. "Time is minute and thirty seconds to target River." Lightning called out as they came up to Minute and thirty seconds on the timer.

They listened to the sisters communicated with each other. "At least they are getting along." Fanboy said and everyone agree. Hangman watched the duo go through the course.

"I am so thankful, I took your advice and didn't eat this morning, because damn this isn't the greatest feeling on your damn stomach." Lightning said. River chuckled. "You actually listen to me, shocker." River said. "Shut it!" Lightning snapped which caused River to chuckle even more. "But seriously little sis, you never listen and I am quite shock." River said. "Don't get you panties in a bunch or..." Lightning said, River knew were she was heading with that. "SHUT IT LIGHTING!" River called out, Lightning giggled which for some reason caused River to giggle.

Hangman's heart fluttered as he heard River's laugh.

Then it hit thirty seconds on the time, everyone was tensed at this time. Lightning looked ahead, she took a breath. "Popping, in three, two one!" River called out. Lightning gasped as they made the dive, then Lighting focused on getting an aim on the target.

Lightning eyes widen as she got insight, Lightning made lock on the target. "Got it!" Lightning called out. Then River dropped the missiles "Bombs away!" River called out then she pulled up.

Her and Lightning groaned as they felt the force hitting her, River kept an eye on the target, then she got a direct hit, with sixteen seconds to spare. "Bullseye, holy shit!" Fanboy exclaimed as he jumped out of his seat. Rooster leaned ahead, looking at what River did.

"Damn." Hangman all could say.

River and Lightning took off their masks. "You alright back there Lighting?" River asked. "Yeah...yeah... that's a lot of force.... how the hell do you all do this?" She questioned. "We are just use to it, don't worry you'll get use to it." River assures her. "Question is how much trouble are we or Maverick is going to be in?" Lightning questioned. "I dunno but we prove that it's possible." River said. "I think you prove you most likely gave Hangman and everyone a panic attack." Lightning said. "I am never going to hear the end of it." River said. "And I will..." Lightning said but River jumped in "DON'T YOU DARE!" River exclaimed and Lightning chuckled.
