The+Hijackers

=__The Hijackers__=

As I walked down the old hall with expired ads every two feet to get on the airplane, I couldn’t help but notice the shiny and shimmering engines gleaming on the chilly afternoon. This was my first time on an A330-200. It was going to be an exciting day since were headed to the tropical and sunny Hawaii. My thoughts were rudely interrupted by my overly stressed sister Caroline, who is 10, whining about how much she dreads planes. Let’s just put it this way: Caroline hates flying. “Hurry up, we can’t be late,” I yelled to my slow family. “Laurence, were 30 seconds away from walking into the plane. Were fine. By the way, your mother and I are sitting in first class. So that means you two are in the way back of the plane. Is that alright?” Dad said. “Yes its fine, but your telling us now?,” I asked. As I walked on the plane, I saw my sister scanning every passenger to see if they look dangerous or not. It was routine for her. We finally got seated, so I pulled out my Language Arts homework. We had to write a short story. Now let’s fast forward to where things become a little different After a long nap, I woke up to my sister complaining, “Laurence, the captain just put the seat belt sign on”. “Caroline, it doesn’t matter,” I said. “No there’s more, right when the captain alerted us, a suspicious looking man went straight to the bathroom. You know what that means, right?,” she said back to me. “Stop jumping to conclusions so fast!,” I said to her. Moments after I said that, Caroline and I looked straight at each other. She was right. That man was bad with his gun in his pocket and black masked face. Caroline and I did have advantage because we were in the back of the plane. We realized we were the only ones who knew about this. “We need to hide in the galley of the plane,” I said. “And that would be...” Caroline asked. “The galley is the little kitchen in the back of the plane.” I told her. We both pretended to go to the bathroom, and then we hid in the galley. “Caroline, listen” I said. “Whoa, some people are talking like in a different language”, she said. The talking stopped being replaced by a woman screaming. Then by the entire coach class screaming. And then first class. I was shocked by how calm Caroline was. “We’ve got to do something. I’ll go take a quick look at what the plane looks like right now. It seems quieter than it was before.” I said. I took a quick glance and all I saw was people lying on the floor of the plane. I knew they weren’t dead, though. I thought that the hijackers must have given them some kind of drug. Speaking of hijackers, I saw them all together by the captain’s quarters discussing something. “Caroline, gather some weapons. Fast!” I shouted She came back carrying some sharpened pencils, a fire extinguisher, a mini bottle of hairspray, toothpaste and these long metal poles. “Great!” I said. “Now let’s get them!” I could hear the James Bond theme in my head as I bolted straight toward the hijackers and lunged toward the first one with a metal pole. To defeat the second one, all I had to do was spray a little hairspray into his eyes. I realized there was only 2 more left. For one, I banged his head with the fire extinguisher. I stabbed the last one with the pencils. I immediately jumped in the pilot’s seat and turned the plane on autopilot. I thought all of the pain was over, until I heard my sister let out a loud scream. I dashed to her, and saw the bathroom door opened with a man standing there. His name tag said “Big Buck” and I realized that was the man we saw before. He was smiling, but Caroline and I both knew it was more of an evil smile. “Handle him while I try to land the plane” I yelled to her. While I tried to navigate the plane, all I heard was the sound of punches being thrown. Caroline finally came back, saying that the man she just drugged was not the man we saw before, and he was actually smiling to us nicely. “Oops! Well, at least I just landed this plane!” I cheered.
