[GROUP FIC] JOINT MISSION....

[dd]

Alright, let's see if anyone wants to join in on this one. A fiction version of the good ole '3 word game' done on the other forum. No limit on the # words. Maybe we can coax some of the "But I can't write" folks into contributing while we're at it.

I'll start things off
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Fan Works crew, and some of their fellow FMP fans, were gifted with a fantastic surpise: round trip tickets to Tokyo, courtesy of an unknown benefactor. With the exception of dd, who was busy trying to track down the identity and intentions of the assumed philanthropist, they had all thrown their bags to a startled airline attendant and rushed off to the first available flight. Some of them had trouble with the metal detector.

"dd, you're going after too damn many details again. Just enjoy the gift for what it is!" HELLFIRE had said. "Sheesh."

"I don't know. Maybe I write too many conspiracy FICs. But, I have a bad feeling about this." dd was torn, especially after seeing the stewardesses walk towards the plane. He whistled long and low. No, better follow up that hunch. "Oh, and I was probably seeing things, but that co-pilot looked an awful lot like Gauaron, but I got a poor look at him."

"Hey, if he wants to miss out on the party plane, let him." Taurec was as understanding as usual. "That way, more of those little bottles of booze for the rest of us." He grimaced when Jae---acting as tyrannical as usual---cuffed him on the back of the head and said "No, more bottles for ME."

After that, things started off swimmingly. The benefactor had supplied a smorgasboard and a dessert cart. There was a big screen TV and a full set of FMP and Fumoffu discs. There was a box labeled For The Brave Of Heart. Inside was a fancy bottle of absinthe and a number of small sterling silver cups.

TT quickly fell asleep. He was dreaming again and talking in his sleep. Something about himself, Zyrex, and a double date.

The biggest surprise came when the last passengers made their way on board. Kaname Chidori. Her friends Ren, Kyouko, and Shinji. And, Captain Teletha Testarossa.

Everybody looked at one another. Whoa! What's going on here?

"Where the hell is Sousuke. Damn that moody military maniac!" Kaname sounded pissed. "Then again, maybe he'll miss the flight. Better not get my hopes up, though."

"He was finding a way to get his special luggage past the usual channels. He told you that, Miss Chidori. Twice." Tessa smiled sweetly, secretly pleased at the sour look on Kaname's face.

The plane started to taxi, unnanounced. People were running out onto the tarmac, waving their arms frantically. The overhead speakers crackled to life:

JUMP OUT NOW, IF YOU LIKE, KIDDIES. WE HAVE A SPECIAL TRIP PLANNED. I'M AFRAID THE OFFER IS NOT OPEN TO OUR TWO SPECIAL PASSENGERS, MISS CHIDORI AND THE LITTLE CAPTAIN. YOU WILL NOTICE THAT THE STEWARDESSES ARE ARMED. IT'S MERELY FOR YOUR PROTECTION. KASHIM'S NOT ON BOARD. THE OFFICIAL WRITERS WERE NOT CONSULTED. THIS SHOULD BE FUN.

The aircraft sped down the runway, left the ground, and soared into the cloudless sky.

************************************************************

[Teletha Testarosa]

hmmm i don't do well with these...

[dd]

@TT

Watch a bit, if anyone decides to contribute. Get a feel for what's going on. Then maybe you'll have a good idea. Maybe if folks don't want to write, they can team up with some who do, sharing ideas.

"I don't do well with these" is sort of like a catepillar saying "I can't fly." It's just a matter of time.

[HELLFIRE]

ANYTHING but the 'I can't write' excuse PLEASE!!

Okay, gonna take a crack myself. BTW, dd, thought _I_ was the
conspiracy / thriller guy... oh well

* * *

"Ohkay," said HELLFIRE, trying not to let the uneasiness creep into his
voice. "Umm, dd... WHO sent us those tickets again?"

"Hey, you said not to worry about them."

"I take that back... let me see 'em."

The intercom spoke again. "This is Captain Gaulun, in charge of this
private flight for Miss Chidori and the pretty Captain. The crew is
now closing the doors, so for those of you that did not get off, well...
too bad, so sad."

The planes' passengers ducked and screamed as the two stewardesses
opened fire. Several bodies thudded to the floor. "Reminds me of
Liselle oddly..." HELLFIRE mused.

"If you will all take your seats... there should be plenty now that we
have some... vacancies. I will NOT tell you where we are going, nor
how long it will take. All I WILL tell you is if you all behave yourselves,
you'll make it out of this... possibly even alive." A bone-chilling laugh
was the last thing the intercoms said before being killed.

Turning to her friend, Kyouko asked "Kana-chan, didn't we go thru this
before?"

"Urgh! Don't remind me!"

"But Kaname-san, didn't Sousuke rescue you in the end? Ohh, how
romantic! To be saved by a boy who constantly drove you crazy...!"
Tessa was lost again in her fantasy world.

"GET A GRIP, TESSA! WE'RE NOT HERE TO INDULGE YOUR STUPID TEENAGE FANTASIES!!"

"Just breaking the tension, sweetie!" Tessa grinned. "You can never
go into a battle without a sense of humor..." She winked at them all.

"I SAID BACK TO YOUR SEAT!!"

"But I have to go Vrrooom, vrooom.... I NEED TO vroom vroom..."
TT was running around in circle uncontrollably making his stupid noises...
unfortunately in front of the gun-packing mamas.

PLEASE, don't cause any trouble TT!! SIT DOWN ALREADY!!

* * *

who's next??

[Taurec]

After the gunfire started Jae looked pleased .. "almost feels like home, doesn't it Tau..." she was talking to the empty chair #58 next to her.
"Where the hell did that idiot go?"

She looked around to see if she could find him, some bodies were lying in the aisle and the stewardesses were already cleaning up the mess they made.

Suddenly her eyes focused on the luggage rack, she noticed that the box labeled "For The Brave Of Heart" seemed to be opened.
She sighed as she pressed the service button

An armed stewardess walked up to her. "What do you want? " she sneered.

Jae gave her a look that made the stewardess shiver making her finger move to the safety.

"champagne would be nice, and don't use the cheap brand"
Jae smiled as her newly appointed servant left to get her order.


Taurec was a man with a mission, as the gunfire started he had to save the most precious item on board the plane ...
Dodging all bullets - matrix style - from the machinegun fire he made a heroic jump and landed in front of the box containing his precioussssss.

As he opened the box - it was as the gates of heaven opened before his eyes. he could hear angels singing while the rhythm of the gunfire continued....

Suddenly, he saw some movement from the edge of his eyes,
He screamed "Adriaaaan" while bending sideways and sending a deadly barrage of coctail forks in the direction of the unfortunate foe who tried to hurt his precioussssss.

Then quickly while protecting his bottle of absinthe with his body,
he opened the service hatch and disappeard in the depths of the plane.

Sousuke who just made it in time to 'infiltrate' the plane had a 6th sense for trouble and it was ringing it's alarmbells,
But it couldn't protect him from that body comming suddenly out of midair falling down on top of him almost crushing his body.
The last thing he heard while he lost consciousness was

"My precioussssss"

[dd]

HELLFIRE was groggy. He had been hit on the back of the head by a gun stock, courtesy of one of the ersatz stewardesses. He started to speak to dd again, but realized that had been a delusion. dd was back on the ground making phone calls. Lucky bastard! Then again, he might miss out on this fine adventure. Poor S.O.B.!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the well of the plane, Taurec found himself caught on the horns of a dilemma. "I think I saw one go down here. I'm going in to check. You cover my back." The 'stewardesses.'

He heard a clip being loaded, down there with him. "If you have given away my position, you will wish otherwise." Sousuke was still shaky after the collision. Observant as always, he noticed the other man's attachment. The gun barrel went from Taurec's head down to The Bottle. "Convince them they need search no further." The voice sent shivers down Taurec's spine. He liked that. Reminded him of some of Jae's threats. But, he couldn't risk the bottle.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

dd had little luck on the phone. The ticket agency said the buyer had been very secretive and paid by means of an untraceable Swiss account.

Hanging up the phone in digust, he wandered into the boarding area, seeing an excited group of stewardesses. Their plane had just been hijacked. That gave them an excuse to party until their next assignment came in. "No. Oh no!" one exclaimed. "They had already loaded all of our things on that plane."

dd thought that there needed to be more anime cliche in the story. Suavely, he went to chat with the disgruntled airline employees. "Ladies, how would you like to retrieve your belongings and have some fun in the process?"

After dd detailed the plan, the stewardesses were ecstatic. They ran off to points unknown and returned a short while later. All wore tight fitting spandex, excentuating their ample bossoms and rounded posteriors, all of which had a wonderful tendency to bounce and jiggle. "Yup, good anime look gals. Beautiful. But, not yet deadly." On cue, an impounded box belonging to the NRA rolled by. One stewardess executed a move thought possible only in zero-Gs. The security guard was out. The box was cracked open. Party favors for everyone. "Brings tears to my eyes and blood to my...never mind."

A good dose of coincidence is always welcome.

"I told you Sis, I could have nailed that pilot with my eyes close. Now they're gone, the Captain and Miss Chidori with them. I need something to ease my tension." The look Kurz turned on his companion was easily readable.

"It's one of those male things again, isn't it" Melissa said with a scowl. "It's OK, I will help you just this once." Kurz' eyes bulged. Could it be true? "One sex change operation coming up. Should only take three shots." There was a pistol in her hand.

"I'm sorry to interupt. A lot of readers like the fights you two get into. But, we seem to share a common problem, and time is of the essence. My name is dd, and I have a group of well-armed battle maidens looking to recapture that plane...or, at least get their clothes and cosmetics back. Would there happen to be a Mithril plane on its way. If so, could we possibly hitch a ride?"

Kurz and Melissa looked at each other, shocked. They had caught the word 'Mithril,' but nobody else had, just as things had been intended.

"I'll need to check with my superiors. In any case, with all those women around, I may need to geld Kurz." Melissa left to place a call.

"I think the ladies have everything in control..." dd called to Melissa. The stewardesses-turned-fighters were trying out their new moves on Kurz.

"Don't hurt him too bad, ladies. He might prove useful later." dd cracked open a bottle of champagne, sharing it with the women while they went over weapons checks. "We'll need to wait a while until some one else adds to the story. Anyone care fror some cracked crab? Save some for Sgt. Major Mao or there'll be Hell to pay...."

[Belisarius]

Aboard the USS America, South China Sea

The flightdeck was busy as 3 US Navy helicopters were landing. When the copters landed, abunch of people mainly medics coverged on 2 copter as a bunch of people were coming off. The other copter had 12 grimy, smelly men walk from it to the island. A khaki uniform man walked to the and greeted them.
" Good work, guys" siad the kahki officer. All the men stopped and saluted him.
" Mission acomplished, Captain. All the hostage are here and accounted for, sir." said the Grimy Lieutantant.
" I know, as I said good job on Mindinao. However I might have to send you guys back into the fire. Bel, come with me. The rest of you get some chow and do the essentials. Debreif in one hour."
"Aye, aye " came from the crew. They all entered the Island. The men went off to do the essentials as Bel and the Captain wadiscussing the new mission.
" An airliner from Tokyo was hijacked. It is going south toward the Marianas, and right now we do not have any intell on where it is going" as they entered the debriefing room.
"This could be all told during the debriefing with the rest, sir" said the big Caucasian.
"I need your honest, no-bullshit, assetment of the situation." said the slightly smaller African-American.
"OK, so far I see nothing out of the ordinary to warrent any no answer." said Belisarius.
"I haven't gotten to the good part yet. The hijacker is believed to be Guaron." This caused Bel eyes to light up then narrow to slits.
" He's reported to be dead"
" How about even more good news? Two of the passengers are Teletha Testarossa and Kaname Chidori." said the captain.
"That means Mithral is going to be involved."
" That's right, Lieutantant. Still think that this mission is doable. CICPAC wants this to be done by US personnel and your team is the best at this work. It'll take a miracle to do the job but you seem to be right up ther with Moses in doing them."
" In the air or on the ground, sir?"
"Won't know yet. Go get some chow and hopefully we get some better intell." said the captain.
As Belisarius went down to the galley for some much needed chow, the only thought that mas going thru his mind was ' I hope Mellisa will be far away from this. I don't need the trouble.'






How's that for an addition. Sorry couldn't spell to save the human race.

[dd]

Good work!

Things are getting busy.

Who's next?

[Esyla]

(cant i be on the plane too???? please!)
( i would love to join but its either this or my gang story and i think the gang story needs the most attention right now.)

[dd]

@Esyla

Consider yourself onboard.

You might want to type at least one paragraph, just to set up what your character is doing. Or make requests for certain things other folks could write. Who knows what might happen if it's left up to others.... ?

[pilot03]

Below deck in Luggage depart Pilot burst out of a rather small suit case. "Man....what a guy will do to go on a free trip. I'm really going to have to talk to those baggage handlers later." Hey had secretly sneaked aboard hidden in a peice of luggage.
He made his way thru the many passage ways looking for an access hatch to pop out of to surprise all the guests. Pilot was not one to venture onto a plane without proper equipment so he brought along his faithful Glock 27 and an extra expiremental parachute that was lying around. Pilot happened upon the storage compartment for the galley and was over joyed! He picked up a container of food but slowly set it down. He was having flash backs of eating something he didn't know what it was and didn't want a repeat.
A loud thud and gun fire quickly caught his attention and the Pilot sprang into action. He ran along the corridors to where he had hear the gunshots. He came to a hatch but at the bottom of the step were two people. Due to the poor light and his harsh breathing the Pilot could not make out who they were. The only thing he could register was one was holding a gun to the other man's bottle of alochol. Warning bells went off in the Pilot's head! He must be a terrorist! With lightning fast reflexes, Pilot had the man holding the gun unconscious.
"Your bottle is safe now...what's going on up there. Tau...is that you??" Before he could get a response, the muzzle of a MP-5 submachine gun came into view from the hatch above.

[Esyla]

Esyla sat in her chair rather bored. She had not heard the announcement nor any of the other comotion becuase her headphones were too loud. But something had caught her eye and it had become apperent that the plane was under some kind of choas.
"Please, dont make me have to save the day again."
Esyla walked past one of the gun ladies. the lady gave her a look but gave in after Esy gave her the evil eye. Esy went to the back of the plane, found some of the on borad vodka, downed it and headed back to her seat.
"Right! ready when you are." Esy said looking at Jea and some of the others onborad. "Are we going to start now or later?"

[dd]

Gauron chuckled, watching the close circuit TV feed from the passenger's cabin. Some of his captives looked to have a swelled head. My my my, an overconfident bunch, aren't we. I have a solution for that. The contingency would work either way, whether the overconfidence were the result of penultimate skill, or overinflated self esteem.

He pushed the No Smoking button, activating the corresponding message light in the passenger area. The 'stewardesses' knew what that meant. They, their pilot, and Gauron all donned gas masks. Cannisters of a quick acting agent were set off in a number of inconspicuous looking carry-on bags. The effect ought to last long enough to reach their destination.

Gauron's voice went out overt over the intercom: PLEASANT DREAMS PEOPLE.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Mithril Globemaster was re-directed. Luckily, it had been close by when the priority of its current mission was usurped. Of equal good fortune, it housed three M9s coming back from extensive overhauls. Unfortunately, internal ammunition was all there was. There were no materials for reloading.

"Well, dd, looks like you and the pretty babes got the green light. Welcome aboard Air Weber. Choose the sweet thing you want, and leave the rest to me. This is their lucky day!!!"

dd smiled without answering. Kurz certainly was full of himself. Maybe his approach would work. dd preferred being one of the authors. A certain amount of privelege might come from that later.

"Stow your crap, and stay the Hell out of the way. We have work to do." Melissa wasn't at all pleased to have strangers aboard. They were an unknown, and now was not the time for uncertainty.

"To know her is to love her...." Kurz got the last word out before Sgt. Major Mao kneed him in the groin.

dd just shook his head. He went back to join his impromptu team, needing to discuss possible strategies and tactics.

How are those guys doing? If TT was still acting up...or Jae tried anything with Gauron...or Taurec hogged the swill...

[Jae]

I'm only including people who have expressed an interest in being included...
**********

"Yes, just like home...", Jae mumbled to herself as she drizzled her champagne on strawberries. "And this was supposed to be a vacation too... just goes to show the kiddies should be left at home. Speaking of which, some are getting restless so time for a little work, I guess..."
*cough*
"You call this soft? Clearly all they teach in stewardess school these days is corporate cost-cutting at the expense of your passengers! That, and how to properly look menacing at we who pay your paycheck! A stellar example of company customer service, aren't you so proud? What, do they give you a medal, you work-a-holic nerd?!" Jae listened to the aggressive attendant move to check the inner depths of the plane, all the while mock arguing with the submissive one about the quality of her pillow.

"If I could please remind you, you are not really passengers aboard this flight..." Jae smiled blankly, scanning for a quick body count, ignoring the submissive until she drifted away, flustered and machine gun askew.

Elysa was looking rather annoyed but eager for some action, while HELLFIRE was finally coming back around. Most of the others seemed to be okay, but it was hard to tell with so many of them blushing and fainting from close proximity to the FMP girls. "..that probably explains all of the blood everywhere..." And there were just enough dead for dinner ... so hopefully this show will be over before they get wasted.

"I'm not sure what the so-called evil genius has cooked up, and we'll likely never know. We barbeque our own, so just sit back, relax for a few minutes, and..." a muffled 'oof' followed by a thin, girlish squeal came from somewhere... back there..."*cough* AND the grill will be ready to go shortly." Jae eyed the FMP girls, and couldn't help but inwardly giggle at how close the rivals-in-love were clutching each other in mutual fright. "You girls need never mind the body count. Although some of you are expendable, there are plenty of plot devices available to prevent the most important among you from coming to harm."

Confident that she had done all that was required by her, Jae settled back in her chair, soothed by the chorus of soft, bored snores. "Oh yes, one last thing... anyone who sees fit to disturb me unduly will be promptly blamed for any breakage of Taurec's dea..."

The cabin's 'no smoking' lights came on with a *ding* "...eeeessst hmmmmmm...."

The stewardess had run for to open a cabin compartment while a soft hissing could now be heard. "You don't suppose..." Jae inquired, raising an eyebrow at HELLFIRE. HELLFIRE began to snicker, and loudly announced, "Not a good look for you ladies!" as the stewardess began to show off their new style.

"Isn't this the air-freshner we use in the bar's bathroom?" questioned Elysa. Tessa promptly slumped in her seat, prompting Elysa to ask, with mild disgust, another ... "I wonder who will get to her first?" as a mad scramble among various ranked guys ensued.

"Hey, don't damage those downed n00bs too much, it's more fun when they're awake!" HELLFIRE reminded the mobbing gang, for now all of the FMP girls were out, as well as the unexperienced newbies. Jae thought HELLFIRE looked like he was angling for a good view of them all, but perhaps he was acutally planning something worthwhile.....

Meanwhile, down below:

"Not a bad toy, thanks!" pilot03 showed off his new acquisition to Taurec.

Sousuke decided that the threat from above was more urgent than the threat from the man-with-the-bottle. "It's a good thing I'm always prepared," he thought for the billionth time, as he pulled out his own gas mask. "I'll have to be careful to not trip over the unconc...." His line of thought was rudely interrupted by the sight of the man-with-the-bottle nodding sagely at the new-guy-with-the-stolen-weapon. Between them lay a blushing, weak-kneed woman in some sort of commercial airline uniform. "Wide, glassy eyes, flushed face, rapid breathing... I wonder which one managed to drug her??". This was only the simplest thought Sousuke had, and the easiest for him to think he understood.

[Chief Petty Officer Klerk]

CPOK was sitting in cattle class which just suits him fine. He was minding his own busness when a stewardess came up and shot him point blank in the chest. The stewardess was quite suprised when there was no spray of blood and guts from him. CPOK grinned at the stewardess and said "bullet proof vests save lifes bitch!" and promptly took the gun off her and blew her own head off. Over her dead body he said "head shots almost always leave the target dead as well!"

CPOK got up and headed off to find the way to the baggage compartment to get his rather illegal gear out from when the no smoking lights came on. Another stewardess waved goodnight to him when the gas started to flow out. CPOK spotted a can smoking from a baggage compartment. He opened the compartment and pulled it out. The stewardess looked stunned when CPOK used it as a mouth freshner, which was the last thing she saw before her brains decorated the unconsous passangers. (grabs ammo and a additional gun off the now dead stewardess)

On his way to the baggage section he saw a group of people rushing towards what looked like Tessa. "That couldn't be possible" he thought to himself. On closer inspection it was. Kaname was also there. He then thought, "where there is Kaname, there usually is Kyouko!".

CPOK changes his plans and heads off to find Kyouko and secure her safty before he executes any more stewards.
