10th of Capricornian. 36th NLC. Springheart. 08:00 of morning.

Today was a special day for Elflandia, as it turns out, 10th of Capricornian is an important Holiday dedicated to its Air and Air Defense Forces. It was known as the "Day for the Elven People's Pilots"

State News Reporter: As you can see it here, several new Aircraft debuted in the skies of Springheart for the First time of the Air Show.......

4 new Elven Aircraft appeared on the horizon. These were far unusual than most of their Service Aircrafts. The design strangely resemble a with large triangular object and moving incredibly fast. These were the N-20. Elflandia's latest Multirole Jet Warplane. Although many of its Aircraft were derived from Lolilandia's Kitemond, which has diamond-like shape, N-20 took a different design. Although many noticed that N-20 nearly resemble to their Orentsians, but with slight difference. The N-20 has a larger triangular wings on front, and a smaller one above the engines, just in the middle. It was intended for Aircraft to resemble the Arrow itself, as to honor Elflandia's ancestry of Archery Arts. As the flyby goes on, there are some of the currently active ones. Most of them are the Imported versions of Kitemond Kt-18. The Air Parade lasts only an hour.

1 hour later.

After the Air Parade, several Pilots broke off from formation. Some were to conduct Air Patrols, others are to fly back to their Airbase. But there is a one N-20 Pilot flying on a different course.

?: Command. This is Azalea-1, how copy over.

Command: Azalea-1. Standby for tasking. An Aircraft Carrier in the Western Fairopian Sea is waiting for you to refuel and loadout the weapons. Over.

The Elven Pilot in question, named Corporal Inge Busse, a Spring Elf hailed from Western Military District, flies her way to the Missile Aircraft-carrying Cruiser Palpatrusius. (Ancient Elflandic Word translating to Caffine) Upon landing, the High and Sea Elves at the Carrier's deck were quick to action, placing a hose to refuel the N-20 while others are loading rocket launchers and loading the mana compartment, just behind the plane's gun. The N-20 uses the Lolilandic-designed 69mm Autocannon, except this one is mana-powered variant. By the time the refueling is done, the Sea elves were also finished filling the Mana compartment, carrying 5 medium-sized Mana crystals, or equivalent to 10,000 69x187mm rounds of Original Lolilandic Version. (As each crystal has around 2,000 rounds each with said caliber) After getting the okay, Inge informed the Command she's ready to go. Then comes the Mission Orders.

Command: Azalea-1. You are to neutralize a threat detected by the Spider Lily Satellite at the Southern World. Report back when done. Happy hunting, pilot.

Inge: Understood. Prepping for take off over.

The N-20 placed itself on a deck and clampled for Catapult Launching. After a short seconds the N-20 starts to fly its way to the Southern World Airspace. While unaware of her encounter, she will get the Mission done regardless.

Southern World Airspace. 20 Minutes later.

Inge found her targets, but was shock at what she finds. A swarm of gigantic size Cockroaches.

Inge: Command. This is Azalea-1. Be advise the Bogeys are..... Unusual and strange kind of targets. Over.

Command: Please Specify, Azalea-1.

Inge: I'm to dogfight giant cockroaches. Over.

Command: Understood. Stay caution.

Upon flying past the Cockroaches, comes the shock. Inge almost crash the precious New Aircraft to these scary creatures. After turning around, she then unleash her weapons on them. But how does it ended like this?

Earlier. 5 minutes during the Airshow. Lycoris Satellite.

?: Huh? What is this?

?: Something wrong?

?: Yeah. I'm detecting these.

?: Giant creatures flying? Where do they heading to?

?: Not sure. But I got the bad feeling about this.

?: Wait. The direction. They're heading to the Southern World.

?: Ah shit. We need to warn them first.

?: Okay.

The crew relay the Emergency Message to the Alliance. Few minutes later, they summon the CAFCAP Officials and comes with resolution. Send any Air Asset available. But before the debate begin, an update came. The Cockroaches were heading to a zone belonging to Elflandia, such as the Oil Fields. And so the conclusion is to rally the Elven People's Air Force for this threat. And so here it is.

Present.

While Inge was busy fighting, several Anti-Air and Armor Regiments of Elven People's Army were rushly mobilized and sent to the Southern World, just in case some passed through and ignore the lone N-20. Back to the Airspace, The Elven Pilot were doing good. Unfortunately, its loadout didn't last long, and she has to face thousands more of Giant Cockroachers. After informing the Command, she was order to retreat immediately. While her Commander asks for Orbital Bombardment to buy the time until the Anti-Air Regiment dug in. The Lycoris Satellite agreed, and start attacking right off the bat, firing off their blazing rod. Before it impacted the ground, it first hit a Cockroach dumbfounded by this attack. By the time the Elven Anti-Air Regiment dug in, the Satellite inform them they're out of ammo. A perfect timing for the Regiment to prepare to fight. Unfortunately, conversely, the N-20 is declared its Mission completed. But the Pilot doesn't care. As long as she is still alive and her Plane, its a win moment to her.

Elven Commander: Open fire. Don't let them get away.

The Elves, while stunned, fire their weapons on the Cockroaches. But to ensure the success of sudden Extermination Mission, the Command authorize to dispatch several Fighter and Interceptor Corps from the very same District Inge and her N-20 came from. The firefight lasts for another hour and it was indeed a massacre. On the Bright Side, none were able to slip past, and those are in retreat were hunted down by the Elven Air Corps until total wipe. Due to the nature of the incident, the Elven People's Army High Command decide not to let the public know, but allowed the CAFCAP Commanders learned this too. And the reaction was immediate. As a result. The Elven People's Army, and its Air Force were tasked to protect the skies of the Southern World for the time being, while dispatching handful of Air Force Divisions from other State Members for support.

Presidential Palace. 03:00 of Afternoon.

Anne: Alright. This incident never happened, other than that the success of the Air Force Day and the Parade should be highlighted today. That would be all. Thanks.

The Elven Ministers bowed down and went back to work, while President Honecker ponders to wonder on why these Giant Cockroaches emerged suddenly. A surprise caught the Eastern Anmiusians. While Elven Defense Minister Meissner decide to see this as opportunity to bring their new N-20's into direct Combat Action, probably impressed by the actions of Corporal Inge Busse.

To be continued.
