    The New Order has been quiet for about six months without a single attack on any of the Disney Realms. With Tartarus and Disney working together, Oblivion has his hands full as he was trying to figure out a way to deal with the situation at hand. He was in his room pacing back and forth on a Star Destroyer while gritting his teeth in anger & annoyance.

Oblivion: [Grits his teeth] "Dammit! It would appear that Disney and Tartarus and now are working together. It seems like their hatred toward each other... has washed over them. Of course, not entirely but still. It's that stupid Price's fault! If he would have just stayed dead as he should have, I wouldn't be dealing with any of this B.S!" [Sighs] "Oh well, it is what it is. With the Hellhounds working with them, the Guardians have added a major ally to their cause. Of course, I should take them out. But how...?"

    Just then, he heard a knock on the door.

Oblivion: [Sighs] "Come in."

    The door opened and entering the room was Mayhem, who was carrying a present wrapped in gold with a red bow on top. She had her hair in a ponytail as she had on a red nightgown that glittered in the night.

Mayhem: [Smiles] "Darling..."

Oblivion: [Still looking out the window]"Hey Love... What brings you here?"

Mayhem: [Sits on his bed] "I came to check on you. Seems like you're stressed out and annoyed." [Puts the Present aside]

Oblivion: [Turns around & walks up to Mayhem] "Yeah, I am..." [Sits next to her] "Apparently the Prince has gotten the attention of everyone. Causing them to rebel against our order and casting their fear to the side. Every report that I get from my generals says the same thing. 'Rebels show no fear. They are willing to die for the prince.' How can one prince inspire an entire multiverse with a single speech?!" [Sighs] "It just doesn't make any sense."

Mayhem: [Rest her head on Oblivion's Shoulder] "I get what you mean. But you should be happy that they haven't attacked us for six months. We still have the Dreadnought, the soldiers, and the firepower. Only fools would dare to challenge us head-on. The soldiers and heroes that I face did not impress me. However, that damn Guardian Moka can fight for sure. As much as I hate her... I respected her as a worthy opponent."

Oblivion: [Looks at Mayhem with a smirk] "You wanna kill her so badly, do you?"

Mayhem: [Evil grin] "Of course I do. It'll be the best gift of my life. And speaking of gifts, It's Christmas." [Puts a hand on Oblivion's hand] "You shouldn't be stressed out on this day, Darling."

Oblivion: [Chuckles] "I know that I should be happy... But I can't since Boss's existence and his way of bringing people together is pissing me off. Trust and Unity? Peace and Harmony? Pfft!" [Growls] "Those words just sickens me..."

    Mayhem noticed that Oblivion looked down with an annoying look on his face. She felt bad for him since he worked so hard during the last couple of days. However, since today is Christmas day, she was gonna give me the best gift of his life.

Mayhem: [Evil Grin] "I have something for you... I think you're gonna like it."

    Mayhem handed the Box to Oblivion and he was surprised by what he saw. It was a present wrapped in gold with a red bow on top of it. He examined the present and was in awe by its looks.

Mayhem: [Smirks] "Open it..."

    Oblivion did what he was told and when he opened that present, he couldn't believe his eyes. Inside, was a bow. But it wasn't just an ordinary bow, it was the mighty Apollon Bow, from the realm of Heavens' Lost Property. Legend has it, that the bow is so powerful, that it can wipe out an entire nation with a single blow. And now, that power is in his hands.

Oblivion: [Shocked] "This is..."

Mayhem: [Smirks] "Apollon's Bow. One of the most powerful bows in the history of any Realm. It has the power to wipe out an entire nation or realm with a single bow. And now, it is your hands..."

Oblivion: [looks at her and smirks] "You... are the best villainess of all time."

Mayhem: [Giggles] "But wait... there's more..." [Looks at the door] "You can come in now..."

    Oblivion looked at the entrance as two of his generals, followed by Sora, walked in as they saluted them.

Oblivion: [Raises an eyebrow] "Sora? What brings you here?"

Sora: [Salutes Them] "Lord Oblivion. Lord Mayhem. We have found a Disney Airforce base deep with the Realm of Mulan. Should I use the Dreadnaught to attack them, sir?"

    Oblivion looked at Mayhem with total disbelief. He looked back at Sora as he gave him the biggest evil smirk of his life.

Oblivion: [Evil Smirk] "Sora... Wipe them out of existence and make sure none of them survive. Use the ions cannons if you have to..."

Sora: [Evil Smirk] "As you wish... My lord."

- Mulan Airforce Base, Himalayan Mountains-

- Mulan Realm -

-December 25th, 2021. 2:34 pm -

    Six months have passed since the Disney Forces kicked the New Order out of Port Royal, the place where Maggie went home. Six months of silence.

A lot of things have happened in that time period. The Underworld forces started to work with Disney as they tried to find any signs of the New Order, Rex and Hellhound squadron were given the title "Air Command Squadron" as they were in charge of the Underworld forces, Katelyn was now a full-time backup pilot for Guardian Squadron, Boss earned the nicknamed Great Guardian, and his friends got promoted to Commanders. But the biggest surprise out of all of them was that when they got back from Port Royal, James Proposed to Katelyn and she almost immediately agreed.

The wedding was held at the Emperor's palace as all the personnel from the Mulan Airforce base gathered in front of the palace. The citizens of Mulan watched James tied the knot and married Katelyn. This was the first time that the Disney Armed Forces felt happy since the war against the New Order began. Unfortunately, this was the only good thing that arose out of the six months. 

James, however, took a photo of Katelyn in her wedding dress. She was drop-dead gorgeous and he was so happy to marry a beautiful girl like her. The photo was worth keeping.

The war between Disney and Tartarus may have ended after the signing at Disney castle on June 20th, however, both forces are still hostile to each other and the discrimination level is through the roof. Boss read about the treaty and he wasn't a big fan of the statement.

He also heard that there have been riots and major protests about this statement and he was worried about his cousins. Donald's nephews, Huey, Louie, & Dewey, and Goofy's son Max. With Tartarus and Disney on alert, everyone was asking themselves, where is the New Order is hiding? As for James, he was not worried about the New Order, he was only asking the one question that he has been asking himself for the last six months. Where did Sora go?

Boss: [Smiles] "Hey James, Catch!"

    James and Boss were playing catch with a football while everyone else was just relaxing on their seats, close to either their X-wings or their F-14D Tomcats. James gripped the ball as he threw it back to Boss who made a one-arm catch. Both pilots were big fans of their favorite sport of all time.

Moka: [Smirks] "So James, what's it like being married?"

James: [Looks at Moka and Smirks] "It's the happiest thing that I've to get to experience in my life!" [Looks at James] "TJ, you'll feel it too when you proposed to your girlfriend."

TJ: [Blushes] "I guess..."

    As James tossed the football to TJ, he took a seat next to Iahfy & Rex who almost wear the same clothes, except with different colored crop tops. Iahfy's had the same red crop top word "Brunch" on it while Rex's had a black crop top with "AC/DC" on it in Red. Greg was also there enjoying the moment.

Greg: [Looks around] "So where is Katelyn... Excuse me, Mrs. Faulkner, anyway? I haven't seen her all day."

James: [Looks at Greg] "Not sure Greg, she's probably wandering around the base somewhere."

    James finally had a chance to meet Greg after his wedding six months earlier and ever since then, James started to call him by his name outside of missions and sorties. Boss, on the other hand, calls him Greg or AWACS whenever he wants to. Since Sora vanished and Boss coming back after a year in hiding, Boss has always been there for James. They were closer to each other than the year before.

Unaware, Katelyn was sneaking up behind Greg and everyone was trying their best not to laugh.

Katelyn: [Smirks] "Boo!"

    Greg jumped out of his chair as Katelyn scared the living shit out of him. He managed to keep a grip on his drink as he fell to the ground, trying to act as nothing had happened.

Greg: [Coughs] "Hey Katelyn... What's going on?"

    Boss and the others were laughing their asses off as Greg looked at them with Dagger glares. Katelyn wasn't the same person when she met James, she was like her 4 other sisters, who were also the lead actors in the show. All the quintuplets wrapped in one. She pulled up a chair and sat next to James.

Katelyn: [Looks at James and Smirks] "Nothing much, just coming back from a stroll. By the way, Admiral Amelia wanted me to tell you guys that we've got a new mission."

James: [Looks at Katelyn with a Raises eye brow] "Really? What happened?"

Katelyn: [Looks at Everyone] "Not sure about the details, but it involves going to the Underworld."

Catherine: [Crosses her arms and raises an eye brow] "Underworld? Why there of all places?"

Marco: [Looks at Katelyn with concern] "I'm with Catherine on this one. Why the underworld?"

Katelyn: [Looks at Marco] "You're not gonna believe this. But the Capital was attacked."

****

    Guardian Squadron, followed by the Raven Team and The Hellhounds, were in the briefing room as Amelia and Bogo were looking at them with a serious expression. What happened at Hades... it wasn't good.

Bogo: "Reports have confirmed that the New Order have launched an attack on the Underworld Capital, Hades, with the help of a Terrorist Organization. Top former officers in the Heartless Army have pulled off a coup d'etat against the underworld government. Calling the Organization "The Legion of Tartarus or TLT", the forces bombed the city of Hades, where the politicians from the underworld decided to join Disney to fight against the New Order, using a Super Star Destroyer code-named "Dreadnaught". Your mission is to pursue the Dreadnaught and..."

Just before Bogo had a chance to Speak. The entire building shook, catching everyone by surprise.

Jess: [Shocked] "What the hell as that!?"

Amelia reached for her walkie-talkie and pressed it against her ear.

Amelia: [Ears Twitched] "We've just received an emergency transmission from the control tower! Unidentified aircraft are approaching the base! Scramble all units!"

Boss: "But-"

Amelia: [Points to the door] "Quick, There's no time! Get in the air immediately!"

    Boss and others burst through the door as they made their way to the hangers. They were worried about their comrades while James was worried about the one person that he cared about the most, Katelyn.

James: "I need to find Katelyn!"

    They entered the war zone as the sound of AA guns and ion cannons going off as they were firing bullets or tracers into the sky. Their ears were filled with the sounds of AA guns or ion cannons going off. Just then, Boss looked up as he froze in fear.

Boss: [Dives for Cover] "Get down!"

    Two tie fighters were diving down toward their position at high speed. The area was bombarded by laser tracers as some of the men and women around them got hit, instantly killing them in seconds. They managed to hit a fuel tank as it caused a massive explosion. James was near it as the shockwave hit him and was sent flying 5 feet into the area, causing him to land hard on the ground. His ears were ringing and he was deaf for a couple of seconds looking around. It felt like he was in Saving Private Ryan.

    He spotted Boss running up to him calling his name over and over. It was muffled for a couple of seconds until finally, his sense returned.

Boss: [Shakes James] "SNAP OUT OF IT AND GET YOUR ASS MOVING, DAMMIT!" [Pulls him up] "MOVE!"

    James got up and immediately started to run toward the nearest hanger with Boss. As he looked up, his heart skipped a beat when he saw what was attacking them. Flying through the air was the superstar destroyer that they were supposed to track down. The Dreadnaught.

As the swarm of fighters, tie fighters or jets, were doing their attack runs, the AA guns and ion cannons were firing everything they have to defend their base. But their bullets didn't even scratch the belly of the beast. Within seconds, the tie fighters pulled out from their attack as a swarm of fighter jets swooped down to laid waste to the land and destroying everything in sight. Making sure that no one comes after them. They even attacked the village that was near the base just for the heck of it. It was just pure chaos.

As Boss and James were running through the chaos, dodging lasers, bullets, and explosions, they spotted the hanger and sprinted for their life. They heard footsteps behind them through all the noise and as they turned for a second, it was a group of demons as they were staying close to them as much as possible.

James: [Looks around] "Katelyn!"

    James held his breath for a second, begging to see if Katelyn was still alive. But he immediately released his breath as soon as he spotted her hiding with Steve and the maintenance crew.

Katelyn: [Spots James and the others] "James!"

    She sprinted toward them along with the maintenance crew. As the two embraced, Boss and the others looked around to see if anyone else was either injured or uninjured.

Katelyn: [Terrified] "What the hell is going on?!"

James: [Holds Katleyns Hands] "No idea, all I do know is that we're under attack by a superstar destroyer and everything is going downhill outside." [Looks at Norm, Steve, and Angeni] "Are our X-wings and planes ready to fly?"

Norm: [Smirks] "You bet!"

Angeni: [Gives a thumbs up] "They're locked and ready to go!"

Steve: [Points to the sky] "Shoot those assholes out of the sky! I don't plan on fixing any more damn X-wings nor planes! I'm too old for this crap!"

James: [Looks at Boss] "Boss!"

    James didn't even need to ask as he noticed Boss turning on his X-wing as the engines roared to life. He looked at James with determination and justice.

Boss: [Looks at James with a smirk] "Let's go hunting..." [Looks at Steve, Angeni, and Norm] "You three gather some people and get the wounded to cover. We'll handle those bastards."

While Steve and the others left to find help, Boss and the others managed to get in the x-wings, and got in the air in no time. Everything was going well as the Guardian squadron managed to push the enemy back. Boss and Moka were getting the most kills out of everyone. However, there was one major problem. While their x-wings can take off vertically, Rex and others needed a runway in order to take off in their jets. In short, they were just target practice for the enemy.

Boss: [Looks down and Sees Rex and the others] "Aw shit!" [Turns on his radio] "Guardian 1 to all units. Apply cover for Hellhound Squadron and Raven Team! Don't let the enemy pick them off!"

Everyone: "Roger!"

****

    As the Hellhounds and Raven team were making their way toward the runway, Rex was clenching her teeth as bullets, lasers, & explosions were happening all around them. She looked up and noticed that Guardian Squadron was doing everything they can in their power to protect them. Just then, she heard Samantha hyperventilating on the radio.

Samantha: [Hyperventilating] "Oh, God! Oh, God! We're Gonna Die! We're Gonna Die!"

Rex: [Growls] "Hey! Pull yourself together! Now is not the time to panic, okay?! We're gonna live!"

Samantha: [Scared] "Have you noticed the situation that we're in!? We're nothing but sitting ducks! We're target practice for the enemy!" [A Tie fighter gets shot down and crashes 10 yards away from her] "WOAH!"

Rex: [Determined] "We're gonna get through this! I promise!"

    By the time they reached the runaway, Rex the others looked around and still noticed that Boss and the others were busting their tails to protect them. She needed to get up there.

Rex: [Frantic] "This is Hellhound 1 to Control tower! We're taking off!"

C.T. Operator: "Understood! Emergency launched granted! Hurry!"

    Rex and the others hit their afterburners as they accelerated down the runway. But just when they thought they were in the clear, a pair of black F-22 Raptors spotted them taking off.

****

Legion Pilot: "The Enemy is launching fighters. Kill them before they take off!"

****

    Rex looked back as she spotted the F-22 raptors lining them up in their sites. Her eyes were full of terror as she looked up and prayed for someone to save them. Just then, as if the maker himself heard her prayers. A black and gold T-70 X-wing fell from the sky as it took out the enemy raptors that were targeting them. At first, she thought it was Boss, instead, it was no other than Iahfy.

Iahfy: [Gives a Thumbs up] "I got your back, sister! Now, come on!"

    Rex and the Hellhounds formed up on Iahfy, while the Raven team formed up with Boss and the others.

Bruno: "Heh. These guys don't fly like the New Order!" [Shoots down a Su-37 and a Tie interceptor] "Wooo!! How do you like that, Scumbags?!"

    Moka formed up with Boss as they took down a squadron of Tie fighters followed by a squadron of F-16c's. No matter how many they've shot down, they always keep coming and coming. Just then, the Dreadnaught started to move as it was exiting the combat zone toward a realm portal.

Fuuno: "It's getting away!" [Bullets flew through his canopy] "Ah! Dammit!" [Banks left with an F-15 on his tail]

Jess: [Goes after the F-15 chasing Fuuno] "Just who the hell are these guys!?"

Marco: [Tries to shoot down a Tie Interceptor] "Just shut up and keep shooting!"

    After dogfighting for more the 15 minutes, the base was finally freed from the unknown attackers.

Bogo: [Gets on the Radio] "Guardians, Hellhounds, Raven team. Go after the Dreadnaught! Don't let it get away!"

    Boss and the others went full speed toward the Dreadnaught as it was entering the realm portal. He gritted his teeth hoping that they would catch it in time.

Boss: [Grits Teeth] "Come on! Come on!"

    And at the last second, they've made it as they entered the portal. Thankfully, the Dreadnaught was unable to detect them. But once they got out of the portal, they were in the one place where Boss was shot down, The Thanatos Mountains. The same place where the seven nuclear detonations took place last year.

****

- Thanatos Mountains, Northern Tartarus -

- Underworld Realm -

- 3:10 -

TJ: [Looks down] "Ground zero... No signs of life..."

    Boss and the others were flying over a massive crater that carved out the mountains. Boss was getting chills just thinking about the explosions along with the time where Sora betrayed him.

But now wasn't the time.

Greg: [Radio Static] "Guys, It's Greg! Listen up, since the runway is damaged, I won't be able to join the mission. However, we're sending an AWACS to your position code-named 'Zuko'."

Boss: [Nods] "Understood! We have him in our radars." [Looks up]

    High above the combat zone, a single Underworld E-767 with a giant radar dish was watching and observing them from above.

Zuko: [Demon Accent] "This is Zuko. I'll be your AWACS for this mission. Now listen, your base has suffered extensive damage. Guardians, Hellhounds, Raven Team. Don't let that Dreadnaught get-away."

Boss: [Nods] "Understood, Zuko. Guardian 1 out."

    Boss and the others were closing in on the Dreadnaught as they flew over the crater. This was their chance to show them what happens when you piss off the wrong squadron.

James: [Snarls] "Those bastards are gonna pay..."

Boss: [Looks at James] "Easy James, Don't let your emotions take over. Remember, we need everyone to make it out alive. I don't want the same thing to happen as last year. Got it?"

James: [Sighs] "Yes, Boss."

    Right after they got out of the portal, They have been reported that the base had suffered major casualties. Most of Moka's, Iahfy's, and Catherine's friends were either dead or wounded. Not only that, but the village next to the emperor's palace also suffered major casualties. Including women and children. Katelyn was also in the thick of it and boy let me tell you, James was beyond pissed at the moment. Of course, Boss is too but he is good at keeping his emotions in check.

Raven 1: "Target Dreadnought sighted!"

    10 Squadrons of Tie Fighters followed by another 10 Squadrons of Jets were circling the Dreadnaught. By the time they were a couple of miles away from the Dreadnaught, they could truly see the size of it. It was absolutely gigantic and its Ions cannons were as tall as a 3 story building, a giant planet-killing turbo cannon in the bottom of it, and 3 massive engines. It was a flying fortress.

    After Observing the Dreadnaught from afar, Boss looked up and spotted a pair of tie interceptors. At first, he thought he was hallucinating, but after he blinked a couple of times, he realized that it was not a dream. Leading the pack was no other than his old rival, Espada 1. How can Boss tell? Because Espada 1 is the only one that flies a Crimson Tie Interceptor.

Boss: [Stern] "James... It's him. Espada 1."

James: [Looks up and notices him] "Yeah... I see him.

****

- Espada -

- Coco Airforce -

- 11th Air and Land Division, 9th Tactical Fighter Sq -

Espada 1: [Spots Boss and the others] "Well, well... Look who decided to show up." [Turns on his radio] "Espada 1 to Espada 2. It's time to stop the Great Guardian..."

Espada 2: [Smirks] "This is Espada 2, roger. Lead the way."

    The two Interceptors circled back around as they went straight at Boss and the others.

****

Boss: [Growls] "Here they come..."

    Boss and James grip their flight sticks as they immediately engaged the tie Interceptors. Before the others had a chance to help them, Zuko interfered.

Zuko: "Guardians, Hellhounds, Raven Team. Commence the attack on the Dreadnaught. Make sure it doesn't leave the airspace. Boss and James will handle the interceptors."

Moka wanted to protest but she knew that Boss would want her to attack the Dreadnaught. If it got away, the mission would be a failure, and many lives will be at stake. She was not gonna let that happen and the others knew it as well.

Moka: "Guardian 3, Roger!" [Hits her booster] "Follow me, gang!" [Guardian Squadron Follows]

Rex: "Hellhound 1, Understood!" [Hits After Burners following Moka]

Raven 1: "Raven 1 to all units, Let's do this!" [Hits After Burners]

****

As Moka and the others started their attack on the Dreadnaught, Boss and James were handling the Espada team and things were starting to get crazy.

Espada 1: [Grunts] "It's been a long time, young prince."

Boss: [Smirks] "Too long, I'm afraid."

Espada 1: [Growls] "Last time we met, I almost killed you. If it wasn't for your stupid trick, you would have been dead by now."

Boss: [Smirks] "Well, if you weren't stupid to fall for the trick. Then, yeah. I would've been dead by now..."

Just as soon as Boss had Espada 1 in his sights. Espada 2 came out of nowhere and barely missed him. She was trying to aim for the cockpit.

Espada 2: [Forms up next to Espada 1 & Growls at Boss] "How dare you to talk to my flight lead like that!"

James: [Forms up with Boss and Snarls at Espada 2] "And how dare you talk to my friend like that, Crazy lady!"

Both squadrons stared at each other with pure hatred in their eyes. They were gonna settle this once and for all.

Boss: "Let's finish this..." [Goes straight at Espada Team]

****

    As Moka and the others were engaged with the Tie Fighters and Jets, Zuko realize that the Jets were from the realm of Coco after he did a background check on them. Talk about a spoiler alert.

Zuko: "Wait... We're engaging friendly aircraft! These are Cocian Fighters! Disney 7th Air Division to  Cocian Aircraft. Cease your attack immediately!"

Moka: [Shoots down an F-14 Tomcat] "Forget it, Zuko. Whether these guys are Cocian or Not, they're our enemies. Nothing can change that."

    Moka looked up and noticed Rex chasing down an F-15C as she was unaware that a Tie Interceptor was creeping up on her. Things were getting interesting.

****

    After 10 minutes of twisting and turning, Boss and James were gassed along with the Espada team. They were going in circles as they were staring each other down with death glares.

Espada 1: [Evil Grin] "Great Guardian... Do you really believe that you can win when your only motivation is pride?"

    James's eye twitched as he was staring daggers at Espada 1. He really wanted to kill him on the spot right after he said that to Boss. To be fair, when Boss was insulted, he really didn't care much. But today he was already pushed beyond his limit. Anything could piss him off, and when Espada 1 said that, he just opened Pandora's Box.

James: [Snarls] "Are you fucking kidding me?!" [Espada pilots look at him] "You nearly killed the women I love, killed hundreds of innocent people, and now you have the audacity to make fun of Boss?!"

Espada 2: [Evil Smirk] "Pfft. Of course. After all, your prince is nothing but a glory hound and a coward."

James: [Growls and activates his KX-12 cannons to full power] "YOU SON OF A..."

    Before James had a chance to engage, Boss flew in front of James, catching him by surprise.

James: [Growls] "Boss... Get out of my way."

Boss: [Looks at him sternly] "No..."

James: [Growls] "Boss... Move or I'll make you..."

Boss: [Sighs] "James... Calm down. I'll handle this."

James: [Growls] "I said get-"

Boss: [Stern] "James... I'll handle this."

    James managed to Calm down as Espada 1 and 2 were looking at him.

Espada 1: [Smirks] "Hmph. Nothing but a lap dog..."

James growled at them as Boss was the only thing standing in his way. He really wanted to kill them.

Boss: [Looks at Espada 1] "To answer your question. I don't believe that pride is my only motivation. My motivation is to keep the promise that I made for the Citizens of Disney. Rather it's Disney or Tartarus, I believe that we can co-exist with one another. But the only way to find out is if we tried. "

Espada 1: [Grits teeth in anger] "Tartarus will be restored once again! As a member of a Demon Family, We will never join or co-exist with Disney! Die!" [Espada 1 and 2 charge at Boss]

Boss: [Deep Sigh] "So be it... James." [James Growling at Espada team] "Do what you must..."

    James hit the after booster as he went full speed at the Two Interceptors showing no Mercy. He gave a battle cry as if he was a screaming Banshee. Catching both the Espada team and Boss by surprise. He was going after them like a Demon going after its prey.

****

    Meanwhile, Moka and the others were shooting down Tie Fighters and Jets at the same time. Even though they were overwhelmed, they still managed to shoot down a majority of them. They were getting tired and Moka was waiting for Zuko to give them the okay to wipe 'em all out.

Moka: [Grunts and Shoots down a Get] "Zuko, what's the word!?"

    No response.

Moka: "Zuko!?" [Looks up and Sees Raven 3 getting chased by a Tie Interceptor] "Raven 3, Get out of there!"

Raven 3: [Tries to Shake the Tie] "I can't shake him! I can't shake-" [Gets hit] "GYAAAAH!!"

Moka: [Watching Raven 3 go down] "No!"

    Raven 3 went down in a fireball as his F-14 tomcat slammed into the ground. He never had a chance to bail out. He was only 21.

TJ: "RYAN!" [Tears flowing down his face]

    Moka Gritted her teeth as she grabbed her flight stick and started to go after the interceptor that killed Raven 3. As if she was possessed by the evil spirits, she was pulling off High turns as she was doing everything in her power to kill the S.O.B.

Moka: [Tries to shoot down the Tie Interceptor] "HAAAAAAAAAH!!"

    With every twist and every turn that her body can handle, she finally managed to land a hit on the tie interceptor as it retreated to the Dreadnaught. Her eyes were full of rage that she was not gonna let him get away.

Moka: [Snarls] "GET BACK HERE, YOU BASTARD!!" [Chases after him]

****

    James was doing many twists and turns as he was chasing Espada 1. Boss, on the other hand, was chasing Espada 2. At that moment in time, Zuko finally got word back from Bogo as he immediately relayed the information to everyone.

Zuko: [Sighs] "Attention, everyone... Engage the Cocian Fighters. I repeat you are free to engage the Cocian Fighters."

    The moment that Zuko said that, everyone went from trying to survive to Demon Killing mode. And the one that transitioned the fastest was James. He gave an evil grin the second he heard that, it was as if his inner demons have possessed him.

James: [Evil voice] "That's all I need to hear..."

    The second the Boss heard James speak like that, he was stunned in fear. Never in his life had he seen this side of James before. He was like an evil spirit summoned from the underworld. He snapped out of it and went after Espada 2. James sped right up to Espada 1 and overwhelmed him, his T-70 x-wing chased down the Tie interceptor easily and when he got Espada 1 in his sights, he shot him down.

James: [Evil satisfying look] "How do you like, Baka!? You're going down!" [Evil Laugh]

Espada 2: [Tearing up] "Espada 1, come in! Espada 1!"

    Boss in total shock when James was laughing like a psychopath. This was not the James that he knew, something was up. James noticed that Espada 2 was all shocked and he was like a demon ready to kill his prey. But just before he had the chance, Boss interfered and James broke off, catching both James and Espada 2 by surprise.

James: [Growls] "Boss... Get out of my way!"

Boss: [Stern tone] "James. I don't know what the hell is going on, but stand down!"

James: [Snarls] "Tsk. Fine! I'll just go help Moka instead!"

    James banked away and went full speed toward Moka and the others. Leaving behind a terrified Espada 2 and a stunned Boss. He looked at the scared girl as he formed up alongside her, comforting her.

Boss: [Calm Gentle Voice] "It's alright... He's not going to hurt you."

Espada 2: [Scared] "What... What was he?"

Boss: [Sighs] "I don't know. But I will say this... You've lost. And in the name of Disney, I order you to bail out and live another day."

Espada 2: [Tearing up] "How... How can you say that so easily? What he did to him... He..."

    Espada 2 cried her eyes out and Boss felt bad for the girl. At first, he thought that she was faking. But as he listened to her cry, he realized that it was real. He didn't want to leave her, so he shut off his tracking beacon and stayed with Espada 2 until she felt better.

****

    Meanwhile, James was going at full speed and didn't give a damn about anything. He spotted Moka and the others dealing with the fighters and they were struggling. James gave an evil grin as he dove right at the enemy showing no mercy. He was shooting every single one of them down one by one and he was laughing.

    Moka looked up and noticed James shooting down Jets and fighters at the same time. At that moment, she had a feeling that this was good but at the same time, really bad.

James: [Sighs] "Sorry about the wait..."

Moka: [Looks at James] "Where's Boss?"

James: [Annoyed tone] "We don't need to worry about him. He's probably showing mercy to Espada 2. Pfft. He should just kill her on the spot!"

    Moka was surprised by the tone of his voice. This wasn't James, this was someone else and she knew it. Then it hit her.

Moka: "Oh shit! He's in his evil faze! Ever since Boss was shot down, he was always like this and nothing could stop it. I have to warn the others!" [Tries to bank away]

    Before Moka had a chance to bank away, James had a tracker beam on her. She tried to break free and James was annoyed as hell.

James: [Snarls and looks at Moka] "Hear this Moka. You dare tell anyone about this phase that I'm going through. I'll personally terminate you myself and I'll wipe out anyone that stands in my way. Got it." [Moka nods her head while in fear] "Good..."

    James freed Moka as he went full speed at the Dreadnaught. She laid back against the seat as she was frozen in fear. This is bad, really bad. If James goes any further in the phase, he will not hesitate to kill his own friends.

****

    After a couple of minutes of crying, Espada 2 managed to calm down. She looked at Boss as he remained there flying next to her.

Espada 2: [Wipes tears] "Why did you save me?"

Boss: [Rubs hand on the back of his neck] "...If I'm gonna be honest... I don't know. Maybe... It's because I didn't want to see you hurt?..."

Espada 2: [Chuckles] "That doesn't sound convincing..."

Boss: [Sighs and embaressed] "It might sound weird, But I sense some good in you. You're not evil, you were just missed guided along with your flight lead. I believe your story isn't done yet. You still have a purpose in life."

Espada 2: [Looks down with Sadness] "It's... too late for me, Great Guardian. I've committed many sins... I don't deserve to live after joining the New Order."

Boss: [Shakes head] "No... it's not too late. You have a choice right now. Bailout and live another day, or remain in your fighter and continue to work for them for the rest of your life. While being miserable... I may not know Espada 1... But I think he'll want you to live... Live... for him."

    Espada 2 thought about it for a moment before she gave in. He was right, she does have a purpose in life. She put a hand on the ejector button as she looked at Boss one last time.

Espada 2: [Looks at Boss] "You've fought well, Great Guardian. I've accepted my defeat. However, promise me this..."

Boss: [Smiles] "And what will that be...?"

Espada 2: [Serious Look] "End the War... End it once and for all... Stop the New Order... I beg of you."

Boss: [Smirks and Gives a thumbs up] "I will... I promise you."

    Espada 2 smiled at Boss before she bailed out of her tie interceptor. He spotted her parachute and that was all he needed to see. The battle against the Espada team has been won.

****

    James and the others were attacking the Dreadnaught with everything they got. There was no holding back from any of them. James activated his radio to hear what the enemy had to say.

****

Dreadnaught Captain: "The Espada Team escorts have been shot down?! Those were our aces!"

Officer: "It's the Grim Reaper! He's here!"

Dreadnought Captain: "Tsk. Concentrated all your fire on the Grim Reaper! Take him out!"

****

    James gave an Evil smirk as he started his attack run. Ions Cannons and Fusion cannons lite him up like a Christmas tree, a swarm of laser tracers and missiles coming right at him. He weaved through them and scored some critical hits on the Dreadnaught, taking out its surface cannons. James flew by the command bridge catching them by surprise before an ion cannon open fired on him as it just missed by a centimeter.

James: [Snarls] "Damm Basterds!" [Turns around and dives right at the Ion cannon. Taking it out]

    James attacked the side of the Dreadnaught as it started to smoke on the under right side of the ship. Creating a massive hole in its hull. James gave an evil smile as he was listening to the crew inside the Dreadnaught starting to panic.

****

Dreadnaught Captain: "Switch hydraulic system to line C!"

Dreadnought Crew Member: "Blocks 4-5 have been heavily damaged! We're losing power on engine three!"

Dreadnaught Female Crew Member: "Surface Cannons 1-18 have been destroyed, sir!"

Dreadnaught Captain: "Tsk. Tell the fighters to engage that puny ship and Obliterate it!"

****

    As James cleared the Area, he noticed that Boss and the others started their attack runs as they were taking out the remaining surface cannons, before they had a chance to get a lock on them. While Boss and the others finished taking out the surface cannons, Rex and the others launched their AIM-54 Phoenix missiles as they took out the remaining fighters and destroyed its hanger.

****

Meanwhile, on the Dreadnaught, the person piloting the Dreadnaught sighed deeply as he ran a hand through his hair. He let go of the controls, stood up, grabbed his helmet, and walked right by the captain.

Captain: [Snarls] "Where the hell are you going!? Get back here!"

Pilot: [Looks at him] "It's no use to attack anymore, the Dreadnaught is lost. He's leading the attack and he is the one letting the Grim Reaper do as he pleases."

The captain was stunned in disbelief as he watched the pilot make his way to the Dreadnaught's secret hanger.

****

    Meanwhile, on the outside, James took out the last operational engine and the Dreadnaught was losing altitude very slowly. Boss and James, along with the others, circled the dreadnought to observe their handiwork.

Zuko: "The Dreadnaught has been stripped of all defenses. Take her out guys!"

    James took the honors as he dove straight at the dreadnaughts command bridge. He fired a pair of missiles and quickly banked right to avoid hitting the Dreadnaught. The missiles struck their targets and the Command Bridge went up in flames. The entire dreadnaught shook as it was going down while several explosions were created along its hulls. While falling, a single fighter was preparing for launch.

TJ: [Pumped] "The Dreadnaught's taken a deathblow! It was James! James did it!"

Zuko: "Nice work everyone! Operation Complete!"

    As everyone was celebrating, Moka spotted Boss high above and formed up with him. To be fair she felt more comfortable with Boss than anyone else. She would rather be with him than James at the moment. But little does she know, Boss was listening to what the enemy had to say, but as he was listening. He couldn't believe his ears.

****

Dreadnought Captain: "Our death is not the end of Everything. The rest is up to you... Sora."

Sora: "Tch... Why do I always have to do the dirty work..."

****

    Boss looked down and noticed a T-70 X-wing flying out of the dreadnought as it exited the combat zone. He confirmed it, it was Sora. He wanted to go after him, but he decided to let him go. He received a transmission from him and he let out a deep sigh. As he couldn't believe it.

Moka: [Looks up at Him] "Hey, Boss... Are you okay?"

    Boss didn't say anything for a few seconds. She wanted to say something but before she had the Chance, Boss sent her a transmission.

Moka: [Looks at Boss] "What is this?"

Boss: [Looks at her] "Play it..."

Moka played the transmission at first, she thought that it was a prank. But the more she listened to it, the more she was in disbelief.

Moka: [Looks at Boss in Disbelief] "This is..."

Boss: [Calm tone] "Go get James. There's something I need to tell him..."

Moka: [Worried Expression] "...U-Understood."

    As Moka banked away, Boss clenched his flight stick as to how much anger he had in him. Just then, James formed up with him with a huge smirk on his face. Boss made sure that he made a private channel for both of them.

James: [Smirk] "What's up buddy?"

Boss: [Stern] "When we get back... You and I are gonna have a talk. Your attitude and your actions today were unnecessary. Especially your attitude."

James: [Scofts] "What do you mean "unnecessary"? I literally, just destroyed the Dreadnought. Shouldn't you be happy?"

Boss looked at James before he sent the same transmission that he sent to Moka.

James: [looks at his monitor] "What's this...?"

Boss: [Sad tone] "Play it..."

    James hit the play button and he couldn't believe his ears.

****

Sora: "Hello Boss. I see that you have survived after so long. I'm sorry to inform you about what I did to your friends back at Mulan Airforce and If I'm gonna be honest. I don't give a damn about what I did. Because of your existence, you're the reason why they died today. You're the reason why the village was attacked. You're the reason for this bloody war. It's all your fault. Everything up to this point was because of you... If you would have stayed dead, none of this would have happened... The New Order will reign supreme and there will be nothing, you and your pathetic Guardians can do to stop us. Oh, If you see James, tell him I said this... 'Hey Kid. You Still Kicking?' So long, your majesty..."

****

    Just like that, James's smirk after destroying the Dreadnaught instantly vanished right as the Dreadnaught slammed into the ground and caused an explosion. The shock wave reached the pilots within a couple seconds. James clenched his teeth in frustration as he looked at Boss, who was looking at him back in a calm manner.

James: [Growls] "... When did you get this?"

Boss: [Calm] "... Just now."

James: [Looks around] "Where is he?"

Boss: [Sighs] "He's gone... Anyway, Let's get back to base. I want to know if everyone is alright." [Forms up with the others]

James: [Emotionless Tone] "Yeah... Let's go home." [Follows after him]

    Boss was unaware that James' anger was beyond his limits. He was gripping his flight stick so tightly that his hands started to hurt. He was having a hard time seeing straight because of how furious he was. And it would only get worse the more he thought about the 5 words that the message transmitted to Boss.

"Hey, Kid. You Still Kicking?"
