Tails throws his Mustang skyward but to his horror the enemy anticipated the move perfectly. Three 30mm bullets punish the Mustang. The first hits his right wing, the second hit his left wing, rendering his guns useless except for single shots, the third hit his canopy. The cockpit shatters and cuts Tails' arms, left leg, and forehead. Tails is wounded but not quite broken. He finds his guns can still fire. Tails reverses his climb, surprising the jet which tries to match it but can't. Tails then turns and as the less maneuverable jet dives he gets an angle. Tails plus the trigger repeatedly. Tails gets lucky as the bullets hit one of the jet's engines, cutting its' speed in half. Tails gets behind him and fires again, this time into the canopy. The pilot is killed and Tails retreats.
Tails' wingman, Sonic stays with him. "Tails. Tails are you ok?" "Uh Sonic I don't know there's a lot of blood." "Tails you must stay awake. Just keep talking to me." "Ok… ok. What are you going to do when this war is over?" Sonic thinks for a second. "I think I'll head back to the states and settle down. Maybe find someone to spend my life with. What about you?" "If I survive till it's over…" Sonic interrupts. "NO! NO IFS ONLY WHENS!" "Ok… when it's over I might stay for a bit and help people and countries recover from the war."
For the next few hours Sonic keeps Tails awake until the runway is in sight. "Ok Tails, we're here. Lower your flaps." Tails tries but due to the damage can't. "They're jammed I can't lower them." "Tails listen, try to manually crank them down."
