Ekhornkin was not a happy giant squirrel. He'd just gotten his new burrow hollowed out just the way he'd liked it, when those small, buzzing creatures had come back. He HATED flying creatures, big or small, but he especially hated ones that could drive him from his home. He'd first encountered them shortly after escaping the coldness that had kept him bound for so long.

"Copy 42-9er-9er Ash Delta, we have a visual on the creature."
The squadron banked over the air space above Tokyo University, the huge squirrel standing in plain sight amidst the ruins of another small building it had tried to climb. This one had lasted slightly longer than the other one before it had collapsed.
"Roger Gamma 3 Delta, you are go to press the attack."
"Copy that 42-9er-9er Ash Delta, commencing attack."
Rockets screamed through the sky, the squirrel only had enough time to glance up before they hammered into his side. A screech of pain erupted through the air as he was slammed into a dorm building.
"This is Gamma 3 Delta to base, we have a confirmed hit we have a conf- OH MY GODS!!"
"Gamma 3 Delta, what is your status"
"J#@%@ F%(#ING @$&*T! GAMMA DELTA'S 9 -17 ARE GONE!!"
"Repeat that Gamma 3 Delta, what happened?"
Another bolt of electricity arched from the rubble, striking down another group of planes. As the burning wreckage crashed to the earth, the squirrel monster was out of the wreckage and after the three remaining planes.
"EVASIVE ACTIONS!!"
What was left of the squadron took off across the city, the enormous squirrel followed closely behind.
"Gamma 3 Delta! What in Gods names is going on out there?"
The planes banked around building, the crushing g-force all but making them black out. Twisting, turning, dodging high and low, and yet the monster squirrel was still hot in pursuit.
"HE'S ON US SIR! WE CAN'T SHAKE HIM!"
"Copy that Gamma 3 Delta. Creature appears to be a ground squirrel, no means of flight! If you gain enough altitude he'll be unable to reach you."
"Roger 42-9er-9er Ash Delta. Gaining altitude."
After burners flared as the remains of the squadron took to the sky. The monster skidded to a halt, cars, stalls, and great chunks of pavement cascading before him like a wave.
"This is Gamma 3 Delta to base, we made it, we're out of the monsters' rea-"
Leaning back on his haunches the squirrel took a moment to judge the distance before launching himself at the planes.
*CRUNCH*

Ekhornkin couldn't understand why the swarms of flying creatures kept hounding him. He'd already chased them from his territory three times in the last seven days, and yet they still kept hounding him. They'd even gone as far as to blow up the large, shiny tree in which he'd made his nest.
There was nothing for it now, he'd given them enough warnings, it was time to track these insects to their nest, and destroy them.
