       Free fall flight
       By: Robin Date: October 8, 2015, 11:54 am
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       (Sorry for the long wall of a post but I haven't gotten to do a
       nice long wall post in ages and have been holding back on a lot
       of writing and couldn't help myself. Mind you, this is the cut
       down version of what I was originally going to write, so. The
       start of this is set in Sapphire/Robin's timeline, so absolutely
       no one else could've been there to see it all happen. The third
       paragraph is when things start to happen in THIS timeline, if
       you want skip ahead that paragraph, again, I just needed to get
       some writing out.)
       "[This is Green Leader, I am ready for launch. I repeat, ready
       for launch. Green light?]" "[Copy that Green Leader, Green light
       is a go, get you and your team out there and retrieve the
       designated item]".
       The soft humming sound of aircraft engines springing to life
       filled the cold air as five seperate planes with pilots for each
       all started up together. A nimble looking black plane sat at the
       front with bright green and white markings across its wings and
       body. Sitting close behind the leader plane where two slightly
       bigger planes, both white, one with pink markings and one with
       orange, the last two positioned behind the others where also
       white, but one with light blue stripes and one with purple. All
       five pilots where all set and ready to go in their designated
       planes. "[Heyo Green Leader! Robin dude! Let's hope your planes
       actually WORK this time huh? And not fall right outta the sky
       like last time, now THAT'D be embarrassing to have happen during
       a mission!]" The headsets of the flight crew's all filled with
       laugher from four different people, only one of the crew wasn't
       laughing. "[Yeah, otherwise they'll put ME as the new flight
       crew leader! Then I'll have someone who can actually put two
       blocks together properly build us some birds that might actually
       fly!]" "[And how about the pain jobs? How come you get the only
       black one?]" "[I wanted mine painted pink!]" Another roar of
       laughter from four of the pilots.
       The flyer of the leader plane sat in the cockpit, turning his
       headset and helmet over about in his lap with his hands. Even
       without it on, he could still hear what was being said.
       He breathed out through his soft pink nose and opened his eyes
       to reaveal a rather stunningly bright spring green pair. He then
       ran a hand through his multi coloured chocolate coloured hair
       and slumped back in his seat. "[Great to know my team has full
       support in me.]".
       They all began to start talking again but this time. Robin
       wasn't listening. He turned off his communications to the rest
       of his team "Let's show them what you're made of" He exclaimed
       as he began the sequence of getting his aircraft ready for
       flight.
       The other four began to follow suit but found their planes
       weren't working.
       The wild dog lifted his finger off of the button that had
       disabled his team's planes, ignoring their shouts of rage as
       Robin and his plane started moving, it only took him seconds to
       get his aircraft air born, his crew watched pathetically from
       their seats as 'Green Leader' took to the skies without them.
       "[With a device for a heart it's no surprise really, the guy's
       basically a robot..]" "[With skin and fur]" "[And a heart and
       soul along with a mind much better then the four of you combined
       if sulking is how you're going to go about him leaving you
       behind as he has. Yes we can all still hear you and I don't like
       what I heard aimed at my son]" The four where out of the planes
       in seconds and saluting the yellow two tailed fox who eyed the
       four of them, walking past to stand where the black plane had
       just been. "You'd all best hope he comes back safe and sound
       otherwise they'll be BIG trouble. Times like these guys, we
       can't afford to bully and muck around as you have. Am I
       understood? I've lost him once. I won't let it happen again."

       The nearer he drew to the city, the dark the sky got. It was
       becoming only harder and harder to see through the blanket of
       thick dark clouds that blocked out the sun. Robin sat up in his
       seat and peered out the front window glass, "There it is...
       Mobotropolis" He said to himself as he gripped the planes
       control handles tightly and let out a puff of air. "You've just
       got to find what they took from Dad, and bring it back safety...
       No biggie! I can get this done in... 30 minutes. Tops I've just
       gotta-" BLAM! One of his screen console started to flash red
       warnings of system failures. Again he looked this time to his
       left to where the shot had hit his plane. Black smoke billowed
       out of the side of his plane, but not even its darkness could
       cover up the plane flying side by side him and who was inside...
       He frowned. It was... Him! And his best friend... Sapphire! The
       plane was similar too, coloured differently but mostly the same
       as the one he was sitting in right at this moment.
       "[Oooohhh! It's Iggle Robbiekins! Come to play? How's about a
       game of tag? You're it!]" The other plane jerked to the side and
       collided with Robin's plane, pushing him and his aircraft down,
       more system warnings popped up and flashed at him, urging him to
       solve the inflicting damage being caused by the second aircraft.
       Robin cursed under his breath but then noticed something very
       important.
       The object they where after, the object he and his crew where
       set out to bring back.... Was aboard the other plane.
       After having almost grounded Robin's plane the other aircraft
       then moved off and shot up ahead. He couldn't loose sight of it,
       he needed that thing back, and if they had it, he had to get in
       from them.
       He thrusted the controls forwards and his plane sped up, the
       engine roaring on both pkanes as they soared across the dark
       gloomy skies. Robin was gaining on them. Fast. They swerved
       between broken buildings and bits that blocked the path, trying
       to shake the Green Leader, but nothing worked.
       Robin rammed his planed right into the other one and something
       not strapped in went soaring out the front of the other plane's
       window. Robin immedently dived for it, glancing to his scanners
       his gut feeling was right. That was it. The other two noticed
       their important object was gone a few seconds later and dived
       after Robin, but he was ahead of them. He was going to reach it
       first.
       Hitting a blue button he opened the cockpit up, still soaring
       down after the precious object, going down.. Down.. Doooowwwn.
       He'd got it! He placed it in his lap and then jerked at the
       controls to pull up his plane to avoid colliding with the
       ground, but he'd reacted simply too late. He was going to crash
       and be stuck here in the now ghost town of a city with his and
       his friend's anti's, the last two people he'd probably ever want
       to be stuck with.
       Except, he didn't crash, not yet. Everything seemed to be
       slowing down actually, he noticed that the retrieved item was
       glowing in his lap, brightly to the point it was blinding he
       covered his eyes but there was still that blinding light,
       nothing else now just. Light.
       [center]
       _____________________________________________
       [/center]
       The light was clearing now and he was somehow still falling
       "Oof!" Ge grunted as something whipped his face, leaving a large
       gash across his right cheek which started to bleed. Ignoring the
       new pain from it he pulled again at he controls of the plane
       trying desperately to get it going back up into the air and not
       crashing down. Seeing green up ahead he had to assume his plane
       just wasn't going to start up before it hit the ground. He
       reached for the seat eject button, but hitting it in did
       nothing. He pulled at his seat belt, gritting his teeth as his
       fur and hair whipped about in the wind still defending through
       the air down towards the awaiting ground below. He couldn't undo
       it. He was going to crash. He hugged onto the wanted object and
       right as he did so the plane collided with the ground... With a
       watery ground... He'd landed right in the middle of Knothole
       lake, the part of the lake he knew to be the deepest part.
       He struggled again to undo his belt, eject his seat, break the
       plane even, nothing was working and he was sinking fast, already
       he couldn't feel the water around his feet and tail. Panic
       flooded his mind as the water swallowed him and his plane up,
       now it was past his waist. He had one thing left that he could
       do, struggling to try and squirm out of his locked seatbelt he
       called out "HELP! HELP!" as the water rose up his chest, his
       breathing gaining speed. Would someone come to his aid in time?

       The ears of a particular and somewhat hefty feline popped out
       from the brush as the call for help filled them. Who would be
       out this far and need help? Not many people visited Knothole
       Lake these days. Although, that was a splash she heard just
       before it, right? What harm could come from taking a peek at
       what was going on; that was exactly what she would do! The
       paunchy cat peeked out of the bushes near the lake, curious as
       to what was going on exactly; still, her curiosity knew limits,
       as she kept herself hidden in the bushes, not wanting to be in
       over her head.

       No response yet, Robin's eyes widened in fear, he could see now
       why his best friend held such a fear of the liquid, this is what
       it must always feel like for her.... It was horrible.
       Reaching his chin, he lifted his muzzle up and then suddenly- He
       had stopped sinking.
       Robin let out a breath of relief, obviously his plane had turned
       back end down and hit the bottom of the lake. Thank chaos!
       He took the time to get his breath back and try again at
       unclipping himself from his plane, but his seatbelt was now
       underwater and it was hard to see anything that had gone under
       the water's surface.
       A lightbulb moment hit him, of course! There was always a knife
       kept on his plane, where'd he put it? There!
       Robin pulled at his seatbelt binding him to the plane to give
       himself more air space and reached out, trying to get the
       covered knife, it wasn't too far away but it was far enough away
       to be just out of reach of the wild dog.
       He huffed, annoyed, then there was a loud groan. Robin froze,
       that wasn't from him. He gulped and then looked down, it was his
       plane "No.. Nonononono!" He yelled as the middle of it snapped
       in two and Robin's half was brought down into the water,
       bringing his head down underneath as well. He was distraught at
       the state of his plane but he really needed to get himself out
       of here, he reached again for the knife as if it was his only
       chance out and at the moment, it somewhat was, or at least in
       Robin's eyes.
       Try as he might though he still could just not reach it and he
       was running out of breath.

       [I]"Put your feelings aside, you can kiss him when he's been
       pulled out alive."[/I] [I]"Roger that Ce."[/I] Fem had been
       warped straight on top of one of the parts of the wrecked
       fighter jet which left her elbows deep in the water, A quick way
       to get her accustomed to the temperature really. A pair of
       goggles had also been warped onto her head in transition.
       [I]"Don't think, just dive!"[/I] she thought to herself as she
       did just that and jumped into the water the rest of the way. It
       was a somewhat murky view under the water but the goggles made
       it easier to see. [I]"Thank you Ceil!"[/I] [I]"No problem hon
       but stay focused."[/I]It was a few seconds before Fem had eyes
       on the front of the plane, and there she saw him, and she
       literally froze up. [I]"Knew it..."[/I] an orange glow started
       to form in Fem's eyes before she kept on going, looking around,
       spotting the knife she swam over to it and grabbed it before
       taking a slash at the belt. If she was able to slash it off of
       Robin, she'd make a grab for his wrist and try to yank him up
       towards the surface. The orange glow in her eyes fading as they
       got to the top.

       Robin had been slowly loosing conscious the longer he stayed in
       the water, his vision was starting to blank out, little black
       dots filled his view at a rapid pace and he watched air bubbles
       escape his mouth and float to the top of the lake, the top of
       the lake that he'd never reach....
       Wrong!
       Robin felt the pressure of his buckled seat belt loosen, not
       just loosen but it released him entirely. He was a bit too out
       of it to act upon is though so it was a good thing that the
       hedgefox then grabbed his wrist and yank him up, for a second
       neither would go up, Robin had one of his legs stuck beneath the
       controls of the plane, however he dealt with this part himself
       as with his free leg he booted the controls off of it other leg,
       freeing it, allowing his saviour to then pull him up to the
       water's surface.
       Upon his head popping out from beneath the water Robin coughed
       and hacked, trying to rid his system and mouth of any water that
       had managed to get in. That and the water still there was still
       making it hard to breath.
       He was getting in some air though which was a lot better then
       being stuck in that seatbelt in his plane at the bottom of
       Knothole lake.
       He eventually got his arms moving, to keep himself afloat, but
       making sure that the arm moving with his helpers hand in his
       wrist didn't make it harder for whomever had helped him.
       Speaking of which, they where hard to see past all his wet hair
       and fur in his face. He ran a hand through his hair to push it
       on of his eyes, it was time he saw just who had saved his life
       aftera- oh my holy flipping gosh.
       Robin's jaw dropped, making his mouth fill with water again, he
       closed his mouth, put it to the side and spat it back out again
       though, not taking his eyes off of her. She... She was so...
       Robin clenched his teeth and let out a dog-like whine of pain,
       putting a hand to his stomach as a sharp pain shot through that
       area. Bringing his hand back out it was soaked red.
       He held his breath and swam underneath Fem before coming back up
       underneath her so that she was now on his back before he then
       swam himself and her over to the banks of the lake.
       Reaching the muddy banks he walked up on all fours, Madeliene
       still on top of his back unless she moved off of him, he didn't
       seem to mind her there though. He slipped up a few times,
       getting mud all in his fur, on his underside and on his chin but
       he kept going until he'd reached grass. Upon doing so he'd drop
       down onto his tummy, making him groan in pain as his wound came
       into contact with something. Fem's slash was successful in
       freeing him but it was also successful in gaining Robin a new
       slash across his stomach as it had cut through the belt, his
       pilot suit and his body, it wasn't too bad though, he was
       bleeding a fair bit, but he'd live.
       Robin stayed where he was on the ground, face down, panting and
       coughing every now and then but breathing. Alive. He couldn't
       believe it.

       She heard something for sure; she heard a voice... A survivor of
       the crash? But wait, who was that who had just appeared on top
       of the wreck? She could feel her chest tighten; she was afraid.
       She was always afraid of stuff like this. But, what if those
       people were friendly? What if they needed help? She knew what
       she 'wanted' to do, but she couldn't bring herself to do it.
       That's when an idea popped into her head; a bird's eye view was
       what she needed! Carefully she jumped and grabbed a low branch
       of a nearby oak, flailing her legs about as she pulled her
       stocky frame upwards, weaving between the leaves to find a good
       spot to see everything from.
       Carefully she stuck her head out of the cover, looking more like
       some sort of small squirrel with an overgrown head. Now she
       could see what was going on more clearly; there were two people
       at the lakes edge! "Hello? Are you alright?" This was safe, and
       she could see if she could help them, if they were friendly that
       was. It didn't seem like they would be any sort of trouble,
       and-... Wait... What was that noise?...
       [font=georgia]SNAP![/font]
       With little warning, the branches give way under her, sending
       her tumbling down through the branches like a pinball machine.
       After a few moments, she finally flopped on the ground, her face
       buried in some conveniently placed leaves that softened the
       landing a little, although there were plenty tangled in her hair
       already. Curse her portly figure; now she was out in the open!
       She certainly hoped the two she saw were friendly as she groaned
       a little, sitting upright with her eyes rolling and head
       spinning; she had landed smack dab right in front of them. At
       least she wasn't hurt; that was good, right?

       [I]"This beats guarding weddings from white-"[/I] [I]"Ponti.
       Loose frequency."[/I] Well that made no sense to Fem, but
       there'd be time to question it later, she was sure, as she had
       the boy that she'd been wanting for a while, right next to her.
       A small smile came onto her face and she let out a slight "Oh."
       as Robin swam underneath her and pulled her onto his back and
       carried her to the shore.
       [I]"Brave."[/I] [I]"He always is with you hon."[/i] Fem would
       move herself off of him after they were both up and out of the
       water. There was worry on her as Robin let out a groan of pain.
       [I]Hey-"[/I] she wouldn't get the chance to finish as Natasha
       and her figure came on a one way trip to 'spotted'land, the
       sudden appearance and the condition of Robin meant she had her
       rifle out in an instant, aimed at Natasha's head.
       [I]"Easy hon. She's a friendly."[/I] came Ceil's voice as she
       put a white hand on Fem's shoulder. The Hedgefox lowering her
       weapon at the Orange hedgefox's words. Since Natasha wasn't to
       be of concern, Fem would somewhat ignore the cat further and
       turn her attention to Robin.
       [I]"What's-"[/i] [I]"He just needs a clean and a patch up where
       he's been cut open hon. Here."[/I] A pack of plasters was held
       out, and as Fem took hold of them, she recognised something odd.
       The hand that held them out was white and light blue. This
       prompted her to take a full look, and who she saw, was the light
       blue and white smiling face of her male self.
       [I]"Ce? Madness?"[/i]
       [I]"Hard to tell, isn't it hon?"[/I] yep, that was Ceil alright.
       But why did she look like the male form of Fem? [I]"If you can't
       tell the differences, then chances[/I] [glow=gold,2,300][I]are,
       Streisand won't be able to either."[/I][/glow] her voice
       changing to match the male hedgefox's as she spoke. [I]"I
       thought you didn't deal with things as low level as the
       Faction?"[/i] [glow=gold,2,300][I]"Let's just say we've found a
       peaceful fix hon. I'll see you again later."[/i][/glow] the
       disguised figure disappearing at that. After Ceil disappeared,
       Fem turned her attention back to Robin, wanting to patch him up
       with the given plasters, but unsure of how to flip him without
       hurting him. The idea of asking Natasha (the one there) for any
       suggestions came to mind, but she didn't even get her name let
       alone if she could be any help. Just that she meant no harm to
       her or Robin.

       Robin wheezed before looking up after hearing the snap. What
       could it of came from? Was it a bone breaking? No no no, don't
       be silly it was more like... A branch! A twig!
       He had to blink a few times to clear his vision before he could
       actually see Natasha straight, he tried to get up to help her
       but his body hurt too much from all the thrashing about in the
       plane. The plane.... His plane!
       Fem wouldn't need to turn him over it seemed as Robin pushed
       himself painfully over onto his back, gasping for breath a few
       times and coughing, but he still pushed himself up into somewhat
       of a sitting position and watched as the rest of his plane
       bubbled under the waterey depths of Knothole Lake. Robin sighed
       and his ears went down as he laid back on his back and rested a
       fisted hand on his forehead. His plane, his work, it was all now
       on the bottom of the lake.
       The wild dog chose not to think about it for the moment and
       instead looked down to his stomach. Which made him cringe. Blood
       and mud covered his entire stomach and made him feel quite
       faint.
       He opened his mouth and let out a distressed sound "Ah" Before
       taking in a breath and starting to undo his torn pilot suit. He
       pulled lightly at the zip that started a little way's under his
       chin on his neck and went all the way down to between his legs.
       Robin only got to pull it down to the start of his chest though,
       some of his fuzzy, but currently, damp, fur sticking out and up.
       Robin moved his hands instead to his head and removed his
       headgear with some difficulties, dropping it after remove it to
       let it roll to Fem's side, he didn't see that she had plasters
       and things to help him, but help, he would greatly appreciate.
       Robin have another cough and some blood mixed with water he'd
       abviously swallowed whilst in the lake came up and dribbled from
       the corner of his mouth, he also wasn't doing too well at
       staying focused either as he missed Fem putting the gun to
       Natahsa and Ceil entirely.
       The wild dog just laid there, breathing rather slowly, trying
       not to focus on the pain the cut on his stomach brought him, but
       even all of this, didn't stop him from talking or at least
       trying to "[sub]...A..are you... Okay Miss?...[/sub]" He asked
       wearily, opening his eyes to look at her with his big green
       ones, but only momentarily. He'd put the parts together and
       figured that maybe Natasha had been the one to snap something,
       she had landed right there after all. He hoped she hadn't broken
       anything.
       He then looked to Fem and looked as though for one moment he was
       considering taking one of her hands in his, "[sub]Y..you...
       Saved my.. My life.... Thank you...[/sub]"

       Natasha almost instantaneously curled up into a ball, frightened
       beyond belief; no, they were not friendly it seemed. At least,
       not until she heard a voice; but, it wasn't one of them, so who
       was it? By the time she looked up, whoever it was had
       disappeared, but she was still shaking like a ball of jello in
       fear of the hedgefox in front of her. Why was she so quick to
       pull a gun on a good-intending girl like her?
       Still, her sense of curiosity and concern outweighed that of her
       fear when she heard the injured dog speak, asking if she was
       alright; ironic of him to ask, considering his state. "I-I'm
       fine; at least, I'll be fine if 'Miss Gun-Nut' doesn't shoot me
       like a bandit..." Slowly she let herself uncurl, brushing away
       the twigs and dust that had gotten caught in her hair before she
       crawled somewhat slowly towards him, making an obvious attempt
       to stay as far away from Mad as possible in the process. "She
       hasn't saved you yet, you're still in horrible shape; oh, what
       to do, what to do..." She looked to the wreckage before her,
       wondering how had even managed to survive the impact; still, at
       least he was alive. "Y-you wouldn't happen to have had a medkit
       of some sort on your plane, would you? I-I could go swim out and
       get it if you do, otherwise..." She pulled her jacket off
       gently, glancing down; it was her favorite jacket, but letting
       him use it to bandage himself was a little more meaningful.

       A gurgle of a noise came from the back of Robin's throat and he
       winced, closing his eyes, writhing slightly in pain, raising his
       chest and back off of the ground slightly for a few moments
       before resting back down, "[sub]...I..It'd be t..too
       difficult..to get to Miss..-" He clenched his teeth in pain for
       a few seconds before wheezing again, and trying to continue on
       "[sub].. Too many of t..the broken plane parts...would be on
       top.. On top of it.." He looked wearily up at Natasha again but
       managed to give her a smile "Thanks anyways though... But I
       can't..have you going and risking your life..." Robin also tried
       to push back her jacket if she offered it, seeing her take it
       off, the way she looked at it... It must've meant something to
       her, his own life in danger or not, he still felt bad about her
       using it on him for him...
       But Robin wasn't really strong enough to protest it either at
       the moment, or to protest anything for that matter, "[sub]...
       It's a better way to go though really... isn't it?[/sub]" He
       asked, looking at both of the girls, both whom he knew nothing
       of but felt comforted by both whilst they where in his presence,
       "[sub]Better than.....[sub] than.....[sub]
       drowning....[/sub][/sub][/sub]" He said softly and slowly as his
       eyes began to droop down wearily. Surley he wasn't going to die
       but it was possibly for him to loose conscious/faint. Question
       was, what where the two girls- who hadn't gotten off to a right
       start so far- going to do about him?
