HOLD MY HAND // BRADLEY BRADSHAW

11

"hell yeah"

~~~~~

i walked out on the boat where all the f-18s were, i felt a grip on my hand, making me turn around

"hey" i looked up at him

"hey pretty face" i rolled my eyes at hangman and also laughed "be safe out there" i smiled up at him

i leaned up and put my arms around his neck "thank you hangman"

" come back to us ace" i smiled at him and nodded

"i will" i say turning around and walking away "don't miss me to much" i heard him chuckle

when i looked in front of me i saw bradley and maverick shake hands then bradley's went to his aircraft

i ran to his plane "hey" i called out and bradley looked at me and smiled "be safe please"

"you too babe" he told me, i got on the stool and gave him a rough kiss "i'll see you when we're back"

i nodded then ran to my aircraft, getting in it and getting ready

~~~~~

"dagger 1 up and ready" mavericks voice came through the helmet

"dagger spare up and ready" hangman's voice appeared

"dagger 4 up and ready" payback and fanboy

"dagger 3 up and ready" phoenix and bob

"dagger 2 up and ready" my boyfriend, rooster said

i took a deep breath before saying "dagger 5 up and ready"

maverick flew up in the sky first, then rooster, next was phoenix and bob, then payback and fanboy, now finally me

we flew a bit of way "Comanche. dagger 1 stand by check in" maverick said

"comanche 1 set, picture clear, recommended dagger continue"

maverick nodded "copy that, daggers descending below radar"

i followed the rest of the groups, flying under the radar

we kept getting closer and closer "enemy territory up ahead, comanche picture" mav said

"comanche, picture clean. decision is yours"

"dagger attack" once maverick said that, i heard multiple sighs

including mine.

the missiles flew over all of our aircrafts and went to attack the enemy's territory

"daggers assume attack formation" we all heard maverick say

i flew past rooster , payback and fanboy and settled my plans behind phoenix and bob and in front of rooster

"approaching target, 2 minutes and 30 seconds in three, two, one mark" mav said first

"two mark" phoenix said

"three mark" i pressed the button, causing my timer to start

"four mark" rooster said

"five mark" payback said

maverick lead the group throughout the course "first sams site up ahead"

my head snapped up, looking at the sams, i let out a shaky breath

"looks like we're clear on radars mav" phoenix stated

maverick replied to her "let's not take it for granted"

i spotted more of the sams above our heads "guys, more sams up ahead" i spoke

"we're two minutes to target" bob informed all of us

"copy, we're two seconds behind rooster, we gotta move" hearing what payback said , i looked behind me and saw that rooster was further than he should be

"dagger comanche, we're picking up two bandits"

"comanche, where are the heading?" i asked

comanche read where they are going "they're headed away from us , they don't know we're here" rooster said

"as soon as those missiles hit the enemy base those bandits are going to move to protect the target.we have to move before they do, increase speed" maverick demanded

maverick, phoenix ,bob and i all increased our speed, i looked behind me and rooster wasn't in my view

"bandits are switching course to defend the target"

i'm guessing the missiles hit the enemy's base.

"rooster where are you?" maverick questioned

"cmon rooster" i sighed, hoping he'll snap out of it

he can do it, i know he can. he's just scared, i thought

"cmon rooster, the bandits out inbound. we have to move" payback said hurriedly

"don't think jut do" i heard mav

"talk to me dad" my heart broke when i heard rooster whisperer that

"bradley you got it" i told him through my helmet, a few seconds later he suddenly increased his speed by a lot

"not that fast rooster!" payback increased his speed, following rooster

i laughed to myself at the situation

"that's a hit!" bob said and we cheered

"yes!" i said. now it's my time, i fight off to help. "sams are about to go off" i inform them

this is coffin corner

we flew past the radar, causing the sams to start firing us "sagar defending" i said hitting the red buttons for flares causing the sams to blow up

she looked around and only saw 2 other aircrafts

"dagger 2 status" maverick yelled out

"almost there mav! almost there, fanboy where's my laser?" rooster asked him

"rooster there's something wrong with this laser" fanboy started "deadeye! deadeye!"

i started drinking out, for all of them

"there's no time, i'm dropping bombs" rooster said

payback and fanboy both protested for him not to, "there's no time, bombs away" rooster did it

they did it, we did it
