The Undying Ace (Ace Combat Pilot x Infinite Stratos)

S2 Episode 1: A New Chapter In Life

Year 2056

Two Years have passed

<<SHIT THEY'RE ON US->>

The war between America and the Eastern Union is in full swing, the majority of the fighting based in Europe, with some attacks happening on the island of Japan, though those were quickly dealt with

<<I've lost contact with the squadron leader, what do we do->>

Many thought that Japan would be the first to fall, and that America would be the quick victor of this war. But while that may have been the case before, not with the two most dangerous assets of the Eastern Union

<<FUCK FUCK FUCK IT'S STRIGON TEA->>

Strigon Team, consisting of two members

Tempel: <<This is Strigon 2 Tempel, scored 13 kills today, what about you?>> She forms up next to a familiar aircraft, one that both ally and enemy know all too well, the red paintjob and the reaper emblem on the tail, the flag of japan being a new addition to it, along with the wing tips being painted a menacing pitch black, orange cracks in the black, mimicking burning wood. The pilot inside giving a thumbs up

Ember: <<Strigon 1 Ember to Tempel. Looks like i win again, 23 kills>>

Tempel: <<Tch, you have to be inflating your numbers or something>>

Nosferatu: <<Insulting My Love like that, i can confirm that we shot down 23 aircraft exactly i can even bring the dashcam foota->>

Tempel: <<Geez, Geez i get it. Let's just RTB>> Lilac banks her VX-23 back to the base. This research base is located in Australia, it's isolation being a perfect spot for the base. As Lilac banks, Y/N does the same with his Nosferatu, the two flying over the ocean, littered with wreckages of fallen jets and bombers

Ember: <<Another successful hunt today, what do you say Tempel?>> He looks over to Lilac from his jet, the woman looking a bit bored

Tempel: <<Eh today was a more tame one, don't you think?>>

Ember: <<True, True. We're comin' up on the runway, form up>> Lilac nods and forms up behind Y/N, them both landing at the same time and taxi-ing to their hangars, some scientists and crew members coming to fix them

Lilac already went ahead of Y/N to the changing room so he speaks with the crew members a little before going as well. Nosferatu blushing inside of the pocket ace but soon being disappointed when he puts the pocket ace in the locker

Nosferatu: "Boo~"

Y/N: "Hey i can't have you seeing my junk, even if i am 'your love'. We still got a bit to go you know" He jokes as he changes out of his flight gear, talking to Nos "Hey Nos, you notice anything different about the people we took down today?"

Nosferatu: "Why yes i did. My Love, their movements were much more, how should i say.. More on par with you and Tempel" She said from the locker as Y/N got into his usual getup, a dark grey t-shirt that has gotten just a bit too tight, great. And some cargo pants

Y/N: "Just like i was thinking, i don't know if it's training that they're doing or if it's..."

Lilac: "The Gabriel's Blessing?" She leaned on a locker, spooking Y/N as he looks over to her "Yeah, Yeah i know i'm not supposed to be in here, but i just wanted to show of the new jacket, ya dig?"
