The Republican Military Pilot and the Witch (Part 2)
"Is that all you've got, Spanish witches? A little more and you might even beat me, maybe if you show some guts!
"Ooh!"
"Look! Just a little more! Come on, come on!"
"Oooh! Oooh!"
"Aahahaha! Ahaha!"
"Oooh! Ooooh! Oooooh!"
The witch finally blew up in anger at the Republican military pilots who were always teasing her, declaring war. The challenge was a speed race, ten laps of the airfield. Of course, the I-16 won hands down. As the pilot returned sounding her triumph, her comrades berated her with comments such as, "You're immature," "This is bullying," and "Yankee communists just can't read the atmosphere." She also thought that she had gone too far, and went to apologize to the witch, but it took one month for her mood to return to normal.
