First Flight Final Fall Novels & Stories

Diane Landing is a controlled fall ending in a jolt, a groan of brakes, then the slow roll of the plane on the taxiway. The implacable blue of the sky has been replaced by a uniform gray, typical of northern skies. Through the porthole, I see hangars, other private jets, and in the distance, the silhouette of a ultra-modern terminal. We're not at a commercial airport. It's a private airfield, one of those places where money buys invisibility.

The private investigator tried to talk to either of them, but they weren’t interested. Eventually, the flat table mountain of his city and vast blue ocean came into view as they flew into Cape Town. Aaron and Sienna stared out the plane’s tiny window and looked at their new life. The aeroplane landed, and Declan stood up as the air hostess indicated it was safe to do so.

With complete haste, we unclip ourselves loose, though Galland, with somewhat of trembling hands, shaking beyond what can be controlled to free himself, I help him out with what is only mere moments to spare. As we dive down into a nearby ditch, Big Bettie sings her final song as she erupts into flames in burst apart from her seems.

The soft hum of the engines faded, but the pounding of their hearts only grew louder.

“You can’t smell worse that a squadron of men training, come here, how much do you remember of your crash course from the dock?” Mia was a natural, her first take off was a little shaky, but it didn’t take long for her to get the feel for it. Her landings got better, she could almost land exactly on one single stone that Jay would pick out. Then she got a scary appetite for speed, Jay started rethinking his offer of teaching her to fly, he could be endangering the whole planet of Ziion. She suddenly stopped and gasped, she was looking at planet S610 and from up here it really was beautiful.
