"Boom!"
The fighter plane cut through the sky, pierced the clouds, and left a straight trail of smoke.
Kiana woke up to the slight tremor of the fuselage.
"(Owo)!!!"
Where am I? What happened? Why is it so dark?
Kiana quickly took off her eye mask and earplugs and was immediately hit by the bright light.
"Wow! Why is it so bright? I'm going blind!"
"It won't make you blind. The glass cabin has a special coating, so it's not that easy to hurt your eyes."
"Angel, what are you doing? Where are we?"
Kiana shouted while covering her eyes.
After a while, her eyes finally adapted to the brightness. She looked out and saw the blue sky and flowing clouds outside the window, with a huge sun slowly rising under the sea of clouds.
"Are we in the sky?"
Kiana was attracted by the magnificent scene and asked blankly.
Angel switched the plane to automatic mode, turned around, and raised a slight arc at the corner of her mouth.
"Is it beautiful?"
"Yes, it's beautiful... Speaking of which, the last time I fought Chiyou was late at night. I saw the sunrise in the sky on the Hyperion. I didn't expect it to be so gorgeous!"
Kiana grinned. She put her hands on the transparent cabin cover and stared at the golden red sea of clouds.
Three minutes later, Kiana finally woke up completely with her hair standing on end.
"Wait! So what's going on? Why are we on the plane? Where are we going?"
"Nothing, we're just going to relax."
"Huh? Are you kidding? Why don't I remember saying goodbye to Auntie, Aunt Himeko, and Mei? They will be very angry if we run away like this!"
"So, I used your ID to apply for leave and fighter use." Angel raised her head proudly.
The implication was that the main responsibility lay with Kiana. It had nothing to do with the innocent and poor Angel.
Kiana: "...Oh."
The white-haired girl's mouth twitched. But now that things had come to this, she didn't want to offend the little cook again.
Forget it, she had been scolded so many times that she couldn't count and it didn't matter if it was one more time.
Kiana muttered while watching the sunrise. "Speaking of which, when did you learn to fly a fighter plane? How come I don't know?"
Angel said with a wooden face: "I haven't learned it. I just borrowed a full set of operating manuals from Bronya."
Kiana: "?"
In the small cockpit, the air suddenly became quiet.
Then Angel gently pointed at her finger and spoke shyly.
"So... is it possible, I mean possible, that I don't know how to land?"
"..."
The air became quiet again.
Three seconds later, Kiana's whole face was pressed against the canopy. She was so frightened that her face became deformed.
"Help! Help! I don't want to die yet, who will save me!?"
...
"Swoosh!"
"Bang!!!"
The fighter plane hit the snowy field in the suburbs like a rocket, stirring up ice chips everywhere.
With this speed and impact force, even an ordinary Valkyrie should have received a pension and a special eulogy by now.
However, a small hand suddenly emerged from the snow, dug hard, and finally emerged the furry white head tuna.
"Bah! Stupid Angel! If I, Kiana Kaslana, trust you again, I'll be a dog!"
"You are so long-winded! You are the paramecium!"
Angel also crawled out from under the snow and retorted expressionlessly.
The biting cold wind made Kiana, who was dressed coolly, hug her arms and shiver.
Then Angel took out a thick down coat from somewhere and threw it to Kiana.
"Great! I thought I was going to freeze to death in this damn place! Angel, you are awesome!"
Angel is the Best!
What? Crash?
It was just a momentary mistake. I, Kiana, will always trust Angel - mainly because I still have to rely on Angel's wisdom to get out. I can't afford to offend her for the time being.
Kiana's brain, which had been on standby for a long time but had not yet shrunk, started up slightly because of the crisis. She looked at Angel with a kind and admiring look.
"Warning! You have entered the jurisdiction of the Anti-Entropy Siberian War Zone. Please retreat immediately, or you will bear the consequences. Warning..."
Anti-Entropy's drone appeared in the air and issued repeated unfriendly warnings.
Kiana hadn't reacted yet but Angel dragged her away without saying a word.
"So we are in Siberia? What are we doing here, digging potatoes?"
Kiana asked unhappily after getting away from the Anti-Entropy drone.
Yesterday she was still eating apples and playing games in the warm and comfortable Saint Freya, and today she opened her eyes on the plane that was about to crash, and then drifted into the endless snowfield within the enemy's territory.
Kiana felt that not pinching Angel's neck and lifting her up in the air was already a deep sisterly love, so Angel better not expect any good temper.
Then, she heard Angel's calm voice.
"Actually, I can fly a plane."
"Why are you still telling me this now..."
"I want Cocolia to help me pass on a message - Kiana Kaslana is in Siberia, her plane crashed, she is helpless, and is heading in a dangerous direction, like this."
"Huh?"
Kiana thought she had enough questions in her head, but now it seems she is still too young.
She took a deep breath, suppressed the Spartan in her head, and smiled stiffly.
"Please, smart and lovely Angel, explain it to me patiently and carefully, okay?"
"Don't ask too much, I'm afraid you'll reveal the truth. Anyway, if everything goes well, maybe Siegfried can be led out."
Angel kept pulling Kiana forward.
Kiana's depressed mood had dissipated, replaced by excitement, touching, excitement, and other high emotions.
"Angel, you..."
"You made an agreement with me."
Angel suddenly stopped, turned back, and stared at Kiana's eyes seriously.
"You made an agreement. No matter how heavy and absurd your problems are, you must bravely overcome them. Do what you said, or I won't let you go, stupid Kiana!"
Angel's eyes were full of fierce light, like a wild cat intimidating its prey.
Kiana was stunned for a while, then nodded heavily and smiled confidently:
"Yes! I will definitely do it!"
Not just for herself, but also for Angel who will face the truth in the end. You must show enough courage to be qualified to lend it to the future Angel.
Although there are still many problems, Kiana suppressed them all. At this moment, she only needed to maintain a firm mentality and follow Angel.
"Aiya! Don't touch my head! It won't grow taller!"
"Hehe! No way, I'll touch it! It's better if Angel doesn't grow taller!"
"I'll hit you!"
"But the snowfield is so big, you don't want me to get hurt and unable to walk, right?"
"..."
"Hehe, Angel is the best~ Yoshiyoshiyoshi~~"
In the cold camera of the drone, two girls, one big and one small, quarreled and went deeper and deeper into the endless snowfield.
Soon they merged into the vast ice and snow, leaving no trace.
