Part 1
"Flight Bound for Atlanta, Georgia now boarding at gate 314."
The pleasent womans automated voice came gently wafting through the airwaves at the Paragon Intl. flight terminal. A few hours ago Rin had gotten a call fom... a relative. He said only that it was very urgent that he come back home. There were some family issues that he needed to be present for. And that he needed to come immediately.
So, Rin packed his bags, left a note under Eshva's door and booked the first flight he could find out of Paragon City.
"Thats my flight. Nice talkin to ya kid." Rin said. He had been chatting with a chipper lil... well what looked like a 10 year old boy, he had dark blue skin, and glowing purple eyes. And kept teasing his pet rat shooting lil bolts of electricity at its tail.
"Yoo too mistuh. Hee-yuh. Take this. as a soovuh-neeyuh."
It was a lil fake .45 cap shooter. What parent in their right mind would give a little kid a toy gun, Rin couldnt think of, but he took it anyway.
"Thanks kid. You look after yourself, and try not to toast the little guy. k?"
"Nooo Pwob-wem!" The kid chuckled and went back to his light torture.
Walking towards the gate, Rin began to wonder about what the urgent news was that was soooo important that he dhad to go home right away. Maybe someones gotten into an accident, or worse...
He tried to push the negative thoughts out of his mind... but what else could it be, no ones even thought about calling him from home until now...
On board he looked around the cabin, people staring out the window, one guy was already hyper-ventilating into a barf bag.
Poor sucka Rin thought.
There was a couple sitting in the back, looking like they were heading on their honeymoon or something... they were quite... stuck... to eachothers faces.
A couple of kids were running up and down the walkway, and an old man, who looked surprisingly like scruffy, yeliin at em. "Ye darn youngins! No respec fer ye elders! Conflabit!" There ewre a few others, some normal quiet folk, some on their laptops, Rin suspected they were on a business trip or something. And there were a few teenagers on the plane as well. flying alone by the looks of it. One of them a guy, the other 2 girls. All had headphones on and were staring out the windows with the cliche "I'm so bored with the world" teenage look.
23C "Here we go." Rin took his seat, luckily it was a window seat.
He liked lookin out the windows.
Not too long after Rin sat down the flight took off, It was late... around 11 o clock or so, so the cabin was dark except for the few who were reading a book... or solving crossword puzzles and such. Rin decided it was a nice time to get some rest, the ATL was at least a 3 and a half hour flight. So he leaned his seat back as far as the crappy coach seat would allow, and closed his eyes.
"Riiiin."
"Huh... Whu? Who's there?
Silly. Its me! When are you coming home?
Who are you?
Hehe. Guess.
...Esh?
...wrong
Sirens flared, alarms and bells rang. The stewardess' voice came over the comm.
"Were experiencing some minor turbulence, please remain in your seats."
Obviously the damn plane was going down.
"Stay in my seat... yeah right..."
Rin got up and was walking towards the pilots door when a sky marshall got up and pointed a gun in his face.
"FREEZE! SHE SAID IN-YOUR-SEAT ASSHOLE!" the sky marshall was a 6'7" 250 boulder of a man. And for a second... maybe half a second... tickeled a far corner of Rins intimitdation nerve.
"Relax sir... I'm just going to see what the problem is... I'm a... well lets just say im gifted. k?"
Rin gave the marshall a quick flkash of his green eyes, and...
"Whoa... heh... MY bad kid... err. The pilot would be happy to err meet with you... go right ahead." He gave a nervous smile and quickly took his seat.
Approaching the cockpit door. Someone tapped on Rins shoulder. Rin turned around to be met by a fist. That sent him reeling into the door. Unnerved, he looked up, to a cloud of black smoke. Nothing more. It was hard enough to tell anything in the darkness of the cabin, let alone a puff of smoke.
They were 50 thousand feet in the air. His powers would do him little good here, and creating any forcefields might ... displace some of the passengers, to a rather uncomfortable position outside the plane.... and his damn sword didn't make it through the mateal detector... go figure.
So Rin put up his dukes. And swung blindly at the cloud of smoke. Hitting nothing of course.
An uppercut, and a Roundhouse kick sent Rin to the roof and into the old man from earlier.
"Conflabit! mee prostate!"
Shaking off the blows, Rin saw the cloud coming towards him.
Thhwwp. he teleported to the other side of the cabin as it approached, and searched his pockets for something to use to defend himself. The only thing he had was the kids lil cap shooter. He pulled the trigger on it and ZAP! a wave of electricity went bouncing through the cabin. With a smirk of enjoyment Rin pointed the kids toy at teh cloud and pulled the trigger again. The teen boy manifested out of the cloud and was sent flying into the stewardess lounge, unconscious.
"HA! Take that muthaf--." Rin started to say but the plane gave a horrendous jerk, and began to spiral out of control.
Oh god
Rin rushed to the cockpit, the pilots were in their seats. both hands on the controls... but both dead...
As the plane spiraled out of control Rin racked his brain for how to solve the situation. He loked at the dials. Foreign language to him. He knew nothing about piloting a plane, too many damn switches and nobs.
The radio!
The radio was blown out... sabatoge from the looks of it.
Damn... What the heck is going on?
C'mon Rin... think think think... Damn it.
As the dials continued to spin out of control, Rin ran back into the cabin.
"Okay everyone listen up!"
((phew... my feeble attempt at a invloved story. something covering what Rin did while he was away... only part one of da tale. oh and I'm back... see yall in game
))
