Lightning coursed through Hyun-Jae's body as she formed a giant ball of energy in her hands. At the same time, the bombshell fell straight toward her at an alarming speed.
With a cold glare, Hyun-Jae spun around and threw the ball up using all of her strength. The sphere quickly flew in the air, clashing with the bomb. Just that mere contact made the bomb explode violently.
But, it didn't stop there as the ball quickly moved through the cloud of fire and smoke toward the jet.
"What?!" The pilot noticed his sensors going off at the sudden projectile approaching him. But, before he could even do anything, the ball smashed into the underside of the plane. Then, it quickly spread across the entire body of the jet.
"Zzzzzz!!!!"
Inside the cockpit, the pilot was immediately caught in the impact as he got heavily electrocuted. Smoke rose from his body as a soul-shaking shriek escaped his mouth. A few seconds passed before a fire ignited in the cockpit and it started free-falling to the ground.
*BOOOOM*
"No!!" The rest of the pilots cursed when they saw what happened.
"Hyun-Jae!" Talon reached her as he quickly inspected her body with his eyes. "Fuuuh, you're fine..." Feeling an overwhelming sense of relief, he exhaled. "Why did you come back?"
"I thought you needed my help. I couldn't leave you behind." She said with a determined look on her face.
"... Sigh, you're right. I was in a sticky situation there." Shifting his gaze up, Talon saw the swarm of jets still moving around them. "They're still not giving up yet. Well, let's deal with them."
Without saying a single word, the two suddenly dashed in different directions running at full speed. The jets noticed the sudden movement and quickly followed them as they dropped every single weapon they had on.
"We need to kill them!"
"How?! They have destroyed 6 jets!" One pilot replied in a terrified tone.
Their calm demeanor was far gone when they saw what the two were capable of. At first, they thought they had the advantage since they were flying in the air while the two ran on the ground so they technically couldn't hit them.
But, that was a grave mistake as the duo seemed to possess devastating long-range attacks that were more than enough to destroy the jets.
"We're fucking screwed! AGHHHH!!" With their fear filling their hearts, they poured all their fear into an all-out attack. Bullets, bombs, and everything else they had mounted on the jets.
But, not only did it not work, the two were able to easily dodge and retaliate with attacks of their own. The blue flames Talon threw easily pierced through the hard metal of the vehicle before exploding deep inside. They had no way of actually dodging or destroying the flame even with bullets with how fast and resilient it was.
As for Hyun-Jae, all she had to do was to send a lightning attack toward the target and it would easily burn everything in its way. On top of that, Talon and Hyun-Jae coordinated the attacks so well that the pilots couldn't even predict what they would do.
It was as if the two shared the same mind and did everything in perfect harmony. One would bait an attack while the other destroys the powerless fighting jet or vice versa.
"What are these two?!!"
It didn't take them that long to realize what the two jets were trying to do.
'Oh no, no! You got to be kidding me!' His eyes moved from the jets to Hyun-Jae as he frowned greatly.
His mind worked at an extremely fast speed as he analyzed their position, speed, and the distance left to reach the gates. All of that information formed an idea of the situation they were in and he came to one conclusion... It was horrible.
'A suicide attack is going to kill us!!'
"Talon!!" Hyun-Jae's eyes flashed with a hint of fear.
"Move, move!!" With no other choice, Talon suddenly changed directions and ran toward Hyun-Jae as he activated Dash to its full ability.
Before the girl could even react, she was yanked before Talon jumped in the air. A split second later, the jets flew into the ground as the pilots inside the cockpit clicked a single red button on the control panel.
A moment of eerie silence passed before a giant bright light filled the entire area as a giant explosion erupted violently.
A burning shockwave spread across the entire area.
"AGHH!!" Chin-Hwa was launched back a few dozen meters from the sheer power of the explosion as he landed on his back. Quickly rising up, he looked at the scene in the distance with speechless shock.
"PRESIDENT!!!" He yelled in despair as he forced himself to stand up and started running toward the explosion.
He wasn't able to see what happened, but he caught a glimpse of the two jets diving down and hitting the ground at full speed.

*RIIIIIIIIING*
Hyun-Jae's eyes were filled with whiteness for a few seconds as her ears rang violently. She didn't understand what happened at first. But, slowly, her eyes regained their vision as she dazedly stared up.
'... A flower?' She thought to herself as she noticed a bright, blooming flower rising in the air in front of her. Her mind didn't register what it was for a good few seconds before she slowly started understanding what it was.
Blinking, she looked down as she felt a weight resting on her body. Her vision landed on jet-black hair.
Slowly lifting her hand, she touched that luscious hair. 'So beautiful...' She thought to herself.
That touch seemed to make the person move as they lifted their head. Staring up weakly, Hyun-Jae exchanged glances with him.
"Talon..."
"I'm glad... you're ok..."
