meanwhile at King Blitzos tower
King Blitzo sits upon his throne and drinks a fine wine looking out upon his so-called empire as Sir Moxxie the Great walks in and reports the attack
Sir Moxxie: sire one of our bases is under attack
king Blitzo: by whom
Sir Moxxie: the rebels
King Blitzo: I see, how do you plan on taking care of this
Sir Moxxie: I will send out our best troops
King Blitzo: hmm, you are just as weak as you were during the revolution
sir moxxie: pardon?
King Blitzo: you sat back while we did the work and yet you call yourself a war hero, so you are going with those troops and you shall earn the title of war hero, otherwise you will be replaced within the day
Sir Moxxie grunts in anger and goes to gather his troops
meanwhile
Rebel Millie: he hasn't returned from what he called "a little trolling"
Blitzo: Knowing Michael, he probably is going to do something that is unexpected
Loona: that's why I miss him
Moxxie: don't worry if he's here he will be happy to see you
as their conversation continues several large explosions are seen and a familiar smell fills the air a smell that only some could love
Loona: napalm
enemy soldiers walk out screaming and on fire followed by a shotgun-wielding Michael who shoots the burning soldiers as he yells toward the trench
Michael: I love the smell of napalm in the morning!
everyone looks in shock seeing him alive but he hasn't seen them yet, he runs to the trench and is greeted by several rebel soldiers who greet him with victorious yells and cheers, rebel Millie tells the rest of them to wait in the command dugout because the conversation needs to be a bit more private once Michael sees everyone
Michael: commander did you see that, what did you think
Rebel Millie: great fireworks display, now you got some visitors
Michael: visitors?
Rebel Millie: yeah, they are in the dugout right over there
Michael: thanks
he walks over still smiling from the little display he put on and he goes in and immediately locks eyes with Loona
Michael: loona?
he runs over and hugs her
Loona: I missed you too
she cries into his shoulder a bit
Michael: it hasn't been that long
Loona: yes it has, you need to stop playing action movie hero and take more care of yourself
Michael: I know
Loona: you owe me for pulling off your little faking death stunt
Michael: well it wasn't really my choice, but I won't disagree, we are going to have a good time when we get back home
Loona: we better
they share a long-awaited kiss as everyone else looks on and Richtofen turns around so as not to look at the display too long while he writes down notes in a pocket notebook
Loona: that was nice but before we do it again take a shower you smell like napalm and gasoline
Michael: just like the first time we met huh
Loona: that was more dried blood, jungle stench, and gunpowder
Michael chuckles
Michael: eh, not much difference
Blitzo walks up
Blitzo: I'm starting to think you are a cheesy 1980s action hero
Michael: well I don't know but I'm starting to think my luck is a bit too good
Blitzo: good to see you Michael
Michael: good to see you to
Moxxie and Millie go up to Michael
Michael: and how are you both doing
Moxxie: we are good
Millie: yeah, things really slowed down while you were away
Michael: I don't think I was that much of a danger magnet
Moxxie: who knows maybe you were but everyone got used to it
Michael sees Richtofen
Michael: and how's the good ol' doctor doing
Richtofen: I'm fine just writing down details on this universe
Michael: well this place is damn confusing
Blitzo: You're gonna have to explain why everyone looks at me like I'm pure evil
soon another explosion is heard outside as the fire of the napalm had reached a truck and loona dives to the ground and Michael rushes over to her
Michael: What's going on
Moxxie: she gets random flashbacks to the last time you were in battle
Michael: so she has PTSD
Moxxie: yes
Michael grabs a pill bottle and gives Loona one
Michael: hey Richtofen, I knew these would come in handy someday
Richthofen: now I know the reason for the PTSD suppressants
Loona seems to almost immediately clear up and feel better
Michael: better?
loona: yeah what were those?
Michael: they suppress the flashbacks and other PTSD-related stuff, I took them for a while until the PTSD just went away, anyways I best explain what happened
