Callsign Psycho

[3rd pov]

Pilot 1: {"He's coming in hot! Watch your left!"}

Pilot 2: {"He's right on my tail! I can't shake him! Get him off me!"}

Pilot 3: {"You're getting too low! Pull up pull up!"}

Pilot 4: {"Where'd he go!? I can't see him! Does anyone have eyes on him!?"}

Pilot 1: {"Where the hell is Psycho!?"}

The coms were complete chaos, pilots were unable to shake or tag the pilot known as Psycho. These poor rookies were too slow and only seeing him for a second, before he flew right by them. However one rookie was not as lucky avoiding Psycho, as his console buzzed meaning Psycho had a lock on him.

Psycho: {"You're done Trigger."}

Psycho said as he flew up alongside the pilot known as Trigger.

Trigger: {"Damn, sorry guys I'm out. Nice flyin' Psycho."}

Trigger said heading back to base. Psycho banks right and reengages the rest of the rookies. One by one the rookies were locked on and sent back to base by Psycho. Eventually there was only one pilot returning to base, that pilot being Psycho himself. After hopping out of his jet, he walks over to the rookies who were sitting on some crates waiting for him.

Psycho: "Nice try kitties, but you got a long way to go before you can out fly me. Although I will admit Bane and Snaketail nearly got me with that bait and switch."

Psycho said as the two female cats fist bump, causing the other rookies to clap. Not many can even get close to such when in a dogfight with Psycho, drill or not. Psycho then brought everyone's attention back to him.

Psycho: "Alright, enough praise, time to see what we all learned. Trigger, you were the first out. What happened?"

Trigger: "Well um, I'll admit, I was sloppy. I didn't communicate with the rest of the squadron."

Trigger admits which gets a nod from Psycho.

Psycho: "Yes, that is correct, you failed to communicate. That lead to you being a single unguarded target in the fight. Had this been a real fight, you would be a ball of burning fur and metal. Tomcat, you were second."

Tomcat: "I tried to take you head on, rather than actually using strategy. Which led to me being taken down almost instantly."

Tomcat says rubbing his arm obviously embarrassed at his own mistake.

Psycho: "Right, never take on the opponent without a strategy. Playing chicken with the enemy will get you shot down in a minute."

Psycho says before turning to the next pilot.

Psycho: "Withers, number three, lesson learned."

Withers: "I didn't keep an eye on the condition of my jet, letting my engine start smoking. Had you not locked on me and told me when you did, I would have changed from Withers to Smokey."

Withers says as she willingly admits that she could have been in a very bad situation. Psycho sighed at her trying to make a joke of that.

Psycho: "Engine failure is no laughing matter Withers. You could have ended up crashing had that problem progressed. Keep an eye on your jet's condition."

Withers: "Yes sir!"

Withers says saluting, before Psycho looks at Bane and Snaketail.

Psycho: "Now for you two, what did you both learn? And don't say that I have a blind spot, or that I can be beaten."

Psycho says making the others laugh a bit. Bane opens her mouth to speak first.

Bane: "Well we learned that a bait and switch can be a useful strategy."

Snaketail: "But that can easily be a laps in judgement, it leaves your wingman unguarded for too long."

Snaketail says picking up where Bane left off, Psycho nods at this.

Psycho: "Right, Bane you left Snaketail open for far too long. If it wasn't for her fancy flying, she would have been out before you could execute the plan."

Psycho explains to the two pilots in a calm but serious tone. The two nod in understanding, Psycho then claps and smiles.

Psycho: "Right then, training is done for the day, go get some rest and something to eat. ... Possibly a bath, you all smell worse than a litterbox."

He says pinching his nose and waving his other hand. The rookies look at each other before glaring at Psycho. All while said pilot is already running off. One pilot flipping off the crate to her feet and pointing to him.

Bane: "Get him!"

Bane yells out as the rookies all jump off the crates to chase after their squad leader. Over to the side stands a few members of the Enforcers.

Enforcer 1: "Sir, are you sure he's the same kid from back then? He doesn't seem to be taking the role seriously."

Enforcer 2: "I'm more than certain, those skills, that callsign, and his need to point out what his squad can do to improve. That's him."

The one wearing the commander uniform says as he watches the squadron pile on top of a tackled Psycho. The Enforcer looks over at his commander.

Enforcer 1: "I don't mean to challenge you commander Feral, it's just ... he doesn't seem to have grown any at all. He's still cocky, childish, and well ..."

Commander Feral: "And you are any better?"

Commander Feral asks turning to face the Enforcer with him. Said Enforcer crosses his arms in response.

Enforcer 1: "I could take him with one claw."

The Enforcer says as he looks over at the squadron laughing like nothing was wrong. Feral hums and starts walking towards the squad, only saying one final thing.

Commander Feral: "We shall see."

[Y/n pov]

I was currently under my entire squad, laughing my butt off at how they managed to catch up and pile on me. I'm honestly glad that we're close enough to just mess with each other like this. Almost feels like I have a family. However this didn't last long before I heard a familiar voice, one I haven't heard in years.

Feral: "Psycho."

Y/n: "Yes?"

I ask looking up to see an old face, one sporting a new uniform.

Enforcer 1: "What kind of response is that rookie?"

Y/n: "Apologies, SQUAD ATTENTION!"

I yell out as we all stand up in line and salute. This causes the Enforcer to smirk.

Enforcer 1: "That's right rookie, you better show respect to him, he's a commander not your pal rookie. Pull something like that again and I-"

Commander Feral: "Enough! You would do well to remember your place."

Commander Feral says causing the Enforcer to back off and go silent. He then turns back to me.

Commander Feral: "Psycho, introduce your squad."

Y/n: "Yes sir! First up is Trigger, our strategist, tends to overthink at times."

Trigger laughs nervously at how I described him.

Y/n: "Next is Bane, she is the best pilot besides myself. Practically my second in command."

Bane: "SIR!"

Commander Feral smiles at this, while the Enforcer scoffs. I continue down the line to the next cat on the list.

Y/N: "Following Bane is her wingman, Snaketail. She may be fresh from the simulator, but she is one fancy flyer."

Snaketail: "Nearly gave you more trouble than you could handle sir."

Snaketail smirks as she says this I just shook my head.

Y/n: "She's also one of our more cocky pilots. Withers is our most focused pilot. Once you're in her sights, you better hope you lose her or that you're on her side."

Withers: "Maybe a little too focused on the skies if I must be honest."

Commander Feral: "All pilots make mistakes, but you must learn from them."

Commander Feral says making Withers nod in response.

Y/n: "Lastly we have Tomcat, our most reckless and cocky pilot. Despite his top marks from the simulator, he's a better at fixing up jets than fighting in the skies."

Commander Feral: "That so?"

Commander Feral asks looking at Tomcat with a calm but serious expression.

Tomcat: "Yes sir! My family has been working on planes as far back as history allows sir! However it has always been my dream to fly sir!"

Commander Feral: "Then I suggest you improve on those skills and fix that reckless behavior. A reckless pilot is a dead pilot."

Tomcat: "Sir yes sir!"

Tomcat says as Commander Feral then turns to me.

Commander Feral: "You have good squad, they need improvement before they will be ready. Now I'd like to speak with you personally."

Y/n: "Hm? Oh, right. Hit the showers kitties, dismissed!"

After I say that, my squad leaves I then turn to the Enforcer.

Y/n: "That includes you Enforcer."

Enforcer 1: "What was that? Did you just try to order me around rookie!? I'll have you in cuffs b-"

The Enforcer says getting in my face, trying to intimidate me, only to hear Commander Feral growl in annoyance.

Commander Feral: "He said you are dismissed, now leave, do not make me repeat myself!"

Enforcer 1: "Uh y-yes sir."

The Enforcer said as he scowls at how he isn't getting any respect here. When he was finally gone Commander Feral lets out a sigh, and drops the strict persona.

Commander Feral: "It's good to see you again, you seem to be doing well."

Y/n: "Yeah, managed to become squad leader fairly easily. Gained the respect of my squad no problem, and honestly we started to see each other as a family. Although I do miss Megakat city."

I admit causing him to chuckle at this. It's been so long since I had seen him like that.

Commander Feral: "I can believe that, you have been gone for quite some time. I'm glad to hear you are well."

Y/n: "How about you, how have you been? I see you made it to the rank of Commander."

I say as we start walking around the base.

Commander Feral: "Yes I have, I just wish you were there when I made the Commanding officer of the Enforcers."

Y/n: "I wish I got an invite, bet everyone was excited about it. The last guy was a complete mess, always talking about the old days of the war."

Both Feral and I start laughing remembering the last Commander. The old man would always turn someone's failure into a story of how things were back in the war. Funniest thing is he was never in a war.

Commander Feral: "Indeed, his retirement was quite the spectacle. His speech was nothing but talking about the war, how he gained medals for his service. Poor sap had to be escorted to a retirement home in a straight jacket because the Mayor felt uncomfortable."

He said with a chuckle, to which I nearly doubled over laughing. That was just funny, poor old cat probably thought it was a special war hero jacket of honor.

Y/n: "Cats alive! He really had the old cat in a straight jacket?"

Commander Feral: "Indeed he did, poor old sap never realized what was going on. In the end he was given top honors and escorted out like a loony on the Mayor's orders."

Feral and I had one last laugh before stopping at a very particular hanger.

Y/n: "Oh, hey I wanna show you something."

I say leading him into the hanger, turning the light on, revealing my latest project.

Y/n: "Whatya think Fer? Pretty cool huh? I say by the end of the year this baby will be ready to fly."

I say with pride in my voice as I just feel Feral's put his arm on my shoulders as he chuckled.

Commander Feral: "You never change do you? Always some project, always helping pilots improve. You're still the same kid who snuck into Enforcer HQ, only taller now."

Y/n: "Yeah but then again, that's what makes me ... well me. Name one cat that can build a jet as good as I can and fly it without a problem."

I say leaning against the wheel of the jet's landing gear. Feral just smiles and shakes his head. We continued to talk for a while before leaving the hanger. He met up with his still fuming Enforcer, and left. I went to meet up with my squad at the mess hall to eat, and get ready for bed. It was nice to see him again, seeing old friends is always a treat. 

Y/n: "I wonder how his niece is doing. ... Should have asked that when I had him here. Ah well, I'm sure she's doing just fine, she's a Feral after all. Girl is too stubborn to give up." 

I say before falling asleep.
