Jorge_Cis sits at his control panel concentrating
on the displays. "Well, that proves it. The clones don't
hold well in harsh heat climates", he reports turning his
head to the left to inform Sabre_Edge. Yeontoo seated behind
both of them says, "Thats why we had them out in the desert
right? To test them out in the heat." SE, keeping his eyes
on the horizon, reassures her, "Correct Y. Too bad the
LoB were able to steal them before we got accurate data, but
by now they must be puddles of unstable goo." JC laughs
as he confirms the biological state of the stolen clones, "Yeah,
goo would be a good word for it." JC looks down as they
pass over the BFA headquarters, "Nobuyuki did a nice job
of turning the BFA mess hall into an extension of the freeway,
dang you can drive a Mac Truck through that hole."
"Y, patch me through to the LoB, I have something to show
them." "Yes, sir", she returns sharply, making
the connection to the rival mercs.

ST sits at his desk as he works on a supermarket list, with
no intention to pay. "hmmm...lets see, beer, Pudding Pops,
beer....oh I need that new Teen Scream magazine with the N'Sync...beer,
Hey! anyone want Pop Tarts? They are very scrumcious!"
A display flashes on his desk. He snaps his head up, a nice
beer buzz kicking in with the quick movement. He sees a black
helmeted head on the screen but recognizes the man by his dark
ice blue eyes. "Sabre_Edge, thank alot for the puddles
of slime your clones turned into. Do you know how bad they smell?
And the stains in the carpet?! S and kipper are going to be
scrubbing for a week to get them out!"
"Did we ask you to take them? No! By the way, we heard
about our doubles being at the ABL base during the attack and
they are now claiming they did the job. Check this out man..."
Y flicks a switch and a recorded video feed runs on his display.
"This was a live recording of us in action, from my cam
worn on the side of my head during the attack. So sue me if
I like to make my own career highlight reels. As you can see
here..." the video pauses, "...in the right corner
is your two 'boys' huddled in the bushes. Now I don't know why
they don't have clothes on for the moment, I figured they were
trying out standard LoB field tactics."
ST grimaces as he sees his "boys" in the bushes, not
blowing stuff up. SE laughs, "just thought you would like
to see that." The display winks out. "Sober! you are
dead!" ST roars.

"ABL base sighted!" JC calls over the intercomm in
the helmets.
[cue the AirWolf theme music!]
SE pilots the legendary copter on a direct course to the base,
the machine roaring with its characteristic whine.
JC hits the weapon arm buttons, as Y brings up the radar scopes.
The weapons extend from the sides and lower from the bottom
hatch.
The HUD's crosshairs target the septic tanks of the ABL, SE
releases two rockets at the target as he passes by over head.
"Two direct hits!" JC confirms on his scope.

Meanwhile, inside the ABL base, warning klaxons sound loudly.
Nobuyuki pounds on the bathroom door, "Eusti! Air raid
get out of there!" "I can't man, that burrito I had
a couple hours is really kicking my butt!", he yells through
the door. Disgusting sounds emit from the bathroom. "Dude!
light a match!" The sound of Airwolf screams over head.
Explosions sound nearby. Eusti feels a rumbling as he sits on
the porcelin. "YAAAA!" he dives out of the door falling
on N. The toilets shoot water in the air as the pressure from
the blast wreck all the bathrooms in the building.
Nobuyuki complains as he gets up, "No mess hall and now
no indoor plumbing?! I didn't sign on for this."
