"Eagle 5, we are getting calls from the Phoenix Police about a set of lights around 5 miles to your north. Can you investigate?" The Air Traffic Controller for Luke AFB asked. "Eagle 5 copies, turning north, over." Cpt. Eric Lancer put his F-15A Fighter Aircraft into a steep turn. "Eagle 5 here, I have a visual on the Set of Lights. They appear to be pulsating and flashing Orange and Purple." The Air Traffic Controller replied, "Wait, did you say that the lights were Orange and Purple, over?" Eric repeated, "Yes. There are two Orange lights and a Purple light, over." Luke AFB said, "Okay, that does NOT correspond with any type of aircraft or flare we know of. Could be Chinese or some shit like that. They really seem kinda quiet around now, over." Eric replied, "Maybe I can try contacting it with a few frequencies, over." Luke AFB said, "Copy that. Let us know the response, over."

Eric tried a few frequencies. "Attention- You are in US Airspace, identify yourself or face the consequences."

After a few minutes, Eric contacted Luke AFB. "I got no reply. Do I have permission to engage the aircraft, over?" Eric asked. Luke AFB replied, "Confirm that it is NOT in close proximity to any residential areas, over." Eric then said, "Um... Uhh...  Got it. There are no residential areas in close proximity to the target object, over." Luke AFB then said, "Copy that. You are clear to engage the object. Recommend you fire warning shots first, over." Eric fired a few shots toward the aircraft. At first the lights didn't respond. "Uh, I'm not getting any response, over." Eric said. Luke AFB replied, "Okay, if you can establish a lock-on, you are free to engage the object. Use your Sidewinders. Luke AFB out." Eric locked on to the object and fired an AIM-9 Sidewinder. The missile neared the object. The object seemingly shot out a blue ray that disabled the misile in-flight. The blue ray was still going though, and it went straight into Eric's F15, shutting off all electronics, as well as his engine.

I'll have a description of the story later. Bumblebeeprime09  |  This is Bravo Papa Nine, over. 13:50, August 5, 2011 (UTC)
