Slowly, she sipped the hot brown liquid and was just about to tare ravenously in to her food when it happened.
At first it wasn't too loud but it began to get louder as she focused on it. It sounded like nails on a chalk board. It was just about to get to an unbearable sound level when it started to get quieter.
It seemed like he just couldn't take it any longer. He stood up and bolted for the toilet. The whole plane seemed to jump as he slammed the door.
The noise had almost vanished. She was beginning to think it was only a figment of her imagination, but then she heard the elderly couple behind her asking the steward what it was. He said he didn't know and shrugged it of as he went to get more coffee. Surprisingly she realised that it was the arm of her seat pressing a button on her laptop. She removed the computer and replaced the chair's arm. She then apologised to the old couple.
Nearly every one in first class was now asleep. The staff were now checking on them every 10 minuets as supposed to the previous 2. The pilot had just announced that if every thing went to plan they would be landing in 3 hours and 23 minuets. With no warning another noise began.
It was a popping noise. Slowly but surely it began to escalate just as the last.
It seemed she was the only one who could here it. She rose from her seat and walked to the cock pit determined to find out what it was.
Startled the pilot turned in his seat and told her to read the "no unauthorised access" sign above the door. She returned to her seat.
3 minuets later the space between each 'pop' was becoming more and more scarce by the second. without warning the noise greatly escalated and She swivelled her head round to see that it was only a child playing with the poppers on it's coat.
"why me?" he wondered. "what did I do to deserve this? I mean was my previous life really that bad or does God just totally hate my guts?! I can see where this is going I'll get off the plane and she'll be standing there with her brother or something and he'll be waiting to lamp me one round the head with a base ball bat. Life! Why did God have to invent women?"
she didn't know what it was that made her feel so paranoid. She'd been abroad by plane lots of times but she never felt like this before
She decided it would be best if she just went to sleep for the rest of the journey, so she put on her personal stereo and began to drift into sleep.
Spontaneously the aeroplane started to rock from side to side whilst travelling forward. The tannoy exploded with the pilots gruff voice but he couldn't get the whole sentence out without the system hissing and crackling. In the end he gave up, and sent his accomplice to tell the passengers in first class,
As a result of technical difficulties, the plane was about to crash.
" marvellous! The plane shall crash and I will never have to see her again! I really can not believe my luck. Though my lawyers will have a hard time keeping her hands from my money!" He was ecstatic. The storey is he stole a great deal of money from his ex-wife who left him for his brother. They hadn't spoke to each other for over 7 years. They had now been forced to talk on account of the death of their son.
She screamed. She knew that something would go wrong this holiday. She called it knowledge. It was more of a presentiment. Next thing they knew they we're being told to call their loved ones telling them they may not return home alive. There was nothing anyone could do. There was no where they could make an emergency landing there was only a million miles of ocean.
The next morning the world was in mourning. The headlines didn't make any one feel better. They read; ' yesterday at approximately 21:49 the 747 had all most reached it's destination of Mexico City when the co-pilot discovered a hair-line breach on
the inner body. A steward tried his best to weld it but it was virtually impossible. As time went by the rupture began to worsen and grow in to an abnormally
large abomination. Soon enough the plane began to loose control and spiral into the Atlantic Ocean. One man was lucky enough to survive. At the moment his condition is critical but has been improved over night...'
"why me? I wanted to die. Why couldn't you have left me to die? When I get out of this coma he's going to put me straight back into it! And she's going to try and blame me for it all and say she wished I died instead of our little boy! God, why do you hate me so much?! I just want to be left to die."
