(A Swordfish with markings from Ark Royal)

A Fairey Swordfish, a British biplane,

But it was all alone,

"That's an enemy biplane!" Ernst said,

"Well, let's see if we can't shoot it down! Its all alone, and it's getting close to home!" Günter said

Ernst put the plane in a shallow dive, creeping up behind the swordfish,

The swordfish had a top speed of only some ~250 kph so even though the Arado wasn't known for its speed, it gained on the biplane,

Ernst steadied the sights, but in doing so, he noticed something.

Ordinarily, the Swordfish would have the pilot's heads sticking out of the open cockpits,

But something was up, they weren't there,

The swordfish didn't have pilots in the cockpit,

As you may be able to tell, a plane cannot fly without a pilot,

This lead Ernst to hesitate,

"What the..." he said.

The swordfish then jerked to the side, all on its own.

Ernst yanked the stick to the opposite direction, breaking away from the swordfish.

"Why didn't you shoot?!" Günter shouted,

"The tommy biplane doesn't have pilots!" Ernst said

"Open your eyes dummkopf! It's maneuvering!" Günter said.


But then, out of the clouds,

*ZHEEEEEW!

A purple-black aircraft zoomed by the Arado at breakneck speed.

"HOLY F$@&! WHAT WAS THAT?!" Ernst said, almost snapping his neck in two trying to look at it zoom right by.

Günter watched the mystery plane climb up into the dense clouds at extreme speed,

He strained himself trying to look at the plane,


*ZHHHEEEEEW!

*VROOOOOOOO!!

It swooped out of the clouds diving on the British swordfish.

*P-P-PRDRDRP!

Immediately, it opened fire with strange blue-colored light weapons, and ripped the swordfish out of the sky, the cloth biplane burning profusely.

Was it friendly?

Immediately once the strange super plane was done with the swordfish, it started flying towards them




"Ernst! Get us out of here!!" Günter shouted, getting his camera out

Ernst immediately saw the plane pulling in on them at extreme speed, a white cloud forming around the Super-plane as it zoomed closer to the German floatplane,

It screamed in to attack,

*P-BRDRDRDR-T

Ernst shoved the stick to the side as hard as he could,
